Think

It seems that I couldn't uphold the promise of 1 post per week, time flies and time doesn't fly. Time flies because 2 weeks passed just like that after my previous post and to think that I've been in Sing a pore for 8 months! Time ticks and tocks regardless of whether I'm ready. Time doesn't fly because there were times I calculate how much $ I need to pay for quitting my job, the 17-month bond turns out to still be a hefty sum despite being pro-rated, 17 months more to go!

I've been thinking a lot lately, about my career, about my future. But it doesn't seem to have a conclusion to every thinking session. Still wondering what to do with this "life" of mine, purpose in life so to speak.

Never have I thought I'd take a plane ride so often in my life, more often than I take a cab come to think of it! I thought I would just have an ordinary office job and work forever to pay for things I can't carry when I leave this world. The second  part still holds true unfortunately, that is working forever and earning money.

I tell myself, if I'm not doing this, I would be doing other things (which I may not like as well) for a living. For a living huh, I do wonder what is the purpose of life, sometimes I feel like living is just because I'm not dead. Not that I want to die, but do note that humans die eventually. Where is this cycle taking us? Where are we going, do we need to be there?

Makes no sense I think. Haha. Randomness.

Have a pleasant weekend.

This must be it

The version of the song I posted in the earlier post which I said I thought I've heard of some time ago. What a mouthful there haha.


Nice <3

I'm feeling kinda anti-social these days, just feel like rotting in room. But at the same time, I'm very happy when I see familiar faces, doing unimportant random things. Oh so simple, but so fulfilling and contenting, yet they are hard to come by these days. Just like the song, it appears to be a very simple romantic task, yet not many people can achieve that these days.

I want to believe that by moving forward regardless of what gloom comes my way, will eventually lead to a fruitful and desirable future. It doesn't have to be what the society thinks of as "successful", but good enough and "successful" enough from my point of view. Which as of now, I am uncertain about. Nonetheless I'm sure I will know it when it hits.

So please hit me or at least find ways to show me that I can hit.

中秋节快乐

A bit late, but not too late, so don't mind the petty details lah alright.

Was at Hong Kong during this festive season, it's a big thing over there, so big that apparently people finish work earlier than usual on the Mooncake Festival Day (15th of August on the Lunar Calendar) and get a day off on the next (or so I was told).

Point here is, this will be the type of life I'm living for (at least) the next 2 years, won't be around for festivals, unpredicted presence in Singapore/Malaysia and yadayada so much inconsistency and unpredictability. Certainly not complaining, just saying :)

And so I was at Hong Kong, thinking how I have not eaten mooncake at all this time around. Back in Malaysia, I always get to eat mooncake, whether they're free samples given to my mom or gifts to my mom. Thinking back in Uni days, how I'd eat a whole mooncake for a meal, haha. Then now, haiz. Oh wait, I think I bought some mini mooncakes to console myself a week back or so! They tasted pariah though, aka not-too-good.

Lol, pardon the messed up post, my mind's messed up now too. Just wanna pen these down before The Moment ceased to exist (meaning inspiration gone lah!).

Oh ya, and so I was watching this live broadcast thinge on TV, some programme for this Mooncake Festival Celebration was on and I saw/heard this song and thought it's quite awesome:


I so so remember hearing this song way way back long long time ago. That's all, I think I kinda miss home, or maybe missing the doing-nothing days hehe.
