Jadedkt, you really seem to want to get into public accounting and I don't blame ya. You get to see the workings of a variety of clients and that exposure helps you in your executive positions in the industry further down the road. Public accounting is definitely a good way to start your career.
Having said that, I think you should stop and look at the bright side too (I know you do but hear me out). I mean it sounds to me like you have a steady source of income (you're probably better off than 90 percent of the out -of-college Nepali population) and you're working in a position that relies on your academic background (yes, 100 level courses count too ;)), which makes you a lot more accomplished than most of your Nepali peers. Once the economy revives, the Big Four will undoubtedly start hiring again (lots of turnover) and if you turn in your resume from time to time I have a hunch you'll get in.
Finally, I have a couple of questions for you:
Oh hey, way to bag the username dude! Giggity giggity goo!

Finally, I have a couple of questions for you:
- You mention repeatedly that you're not aligned well enough (at this point) to achieve your dreams. In your words, "you realize that your path to your dreams is very doubtful," and, "it's not my dream job, I wish I was less idealistic." Could you kindly elaborate on your dreams or your dream job? As a fellow accountant, I'm just curious. I apologize beforehand if I seem to be prying into your personal affairs; it is not my intention to do so.
- Initially, I thought your profile pictures were from SP but as I enlarged them, I found out that they weren't. They kinda seem dark. What are they and where'd you get 'em?
Oh hey, way to bag the username dude! Giggity giggity goo!
