It’s scary to think about it. Possibly going back to Pakistan to do an MBA in LUMS, a very good college there, for two whole years.
It is crazy how much cheaper it would be to do it there. In Singapore, nothing is less than $26,000 a year. There just the tuition fees will cost me $17,000 for the entire 2-yr course. Plus it will be my chance to live in Pakistan for a while. Like I always wanted. But can I live there for tow whole years? Can I live without my family?
It is exciting. Challenging. But scary. Not to mention, LUMS is brilliant and full of brilliant students. Very competitive. Can I do it there?
I know I WANT to get an MBA. And I know I want to go into Human Resource Management. What about a graduate diploma in human resource management first, some work experience in the HR field, and THEN an MBA? Feels a bit like a waste of time, doesn’t it?
The Nanyang MBA costs $40,000 for one year. god.
My dad is encouraging me to go to LUMS in Lahore. My mom is asking how I will survive there alone, in the view of all my relatives, from the lifestyle im used to here in Singapore, my personality, my nature, my disposition. Even I am worried about it. But I feel the exposure to Pakistan would be good.
I’m still gathering information from people I know who graduated from LUMS.
By the way our new washrooms are WUNNERFUL. I love the shower capsule, in all its transparency 
haha ive always loved transparent doors for some weird reason.
lately ive found myself craving for a ‘passion’. or to have something in my life im good at, and enjoy doing, and can develop over time. doesnt have to be useful. just interesting to me. i love music. im thinking about my sitar classes which I abandoned halfway. And Im wondering whether I should switch to Singing, which I love. But I’mr ather embarrassed to go back to my ustad sahib and tell him “hey so sorry for abandoning the sitar classes halfway, but now I think I want to do Singing instead.”
I also have a deep undying love for poetry. Urdu poetry in specific. And Sufi qawwalis.
dont go.
i will miss you…..

Uhm, just started randomly reading your blog.
I think I might start my own private blog as well!
Wow… my parents would never let me go to Uni in bangladesh (back home)… I’m too irresponsible haha. I hope you make sure to check that the degree you get in will be equivalent and as legitimate in singapore as it were in Pakistan.
Good luck *thumbs up*
