The hiatus

Been some time since I've updated this blog. As with most things with me, I get bored easily. Haha.. Oh well. Met up with my jc friends today, and its quite fun meeting them. A few of them got attached, and I realise.. we were discussing about boys a lot. Apart from that, reminiscing the old times in school. Both the good and bad. =)

While we were outdoors, Qi commented that she would imagine me working in one of the tall buildings. Inwardly, I was cringing a little. I do not think I am that outstanding, nor am I one of those high achievers. I always think of myself as a lazy and motivated-when-i want-to kind of person. The irony of it all is that I am constantly surrounded by high achievers. You would think that would help mould me into something similar..

Can't help but think about my life when I graduate.

What will I be like when I start work? Impeccably neat hair, dress suit and pants, with those clickity heels? Will I lose my way and find no balance between life and work? Wait, you can't lose your way when you do not know where you are going in the first place.

Oh and first, will I be able to find a job?

Will I be able to fulfill what I want? Would self-actualisation and financial ascetism find their way to me? Or rather, will I find my way to them?

I always envy people who have a clear goal and direction in life. I dislike being aimless...

And I want a temp job!! Bleah.

No worries. i have no idea what i wanna do in life either. i think working in MS just tells me that i wouldn't want to work in an accounting firm next time... it's just... not exciting after awhile i guess

hey gal, having clear direction and goals in life may not be the wise stuff to have, as they are meaningless if they are not aligned to what your heart says. search deep inside you is the thing you need to do.

Hey thanks both of ya.

Bee, let's hope it comes to us. Actually, I think in our hearts there has always been a little dream, just that, day by day, we smother it with our failures and lack of faith.. =)

Ks, I found what you said in your comments so true, and its something that I hope never to lose sight of. I've read about that in this fantastic blog - goodgirladventure.blogspot.com(I hope its all right quoting here)

I love the way she writes, very moving.. And I believe in it, there lies many life's truths and struggles. Just wanna share. Visit it if both of you have the time! =)
