the journey of self discovery from the road less travelled

the lull before the storm

Life has been good lately ... enjoying my 1 month solitude from study ... having most of my weekends out , doing what I won't do if I had to study ... and I am bracing myself for this killer semester of 3 subjects .. looks a lot but guess I will survive it ...

Last weekend was cool ... out for another round of karaoke, belting out songs (I sang a bit more than normal) ... then heading to the hills, at a resort where we spent the night .. chit chatting ... having drinking games ... and a mega steamboat party ... where our loud noises broke the quietness of the lonesome hills surrounding us.

Work has (on the other hand), taken a twist ... the workload has increased by a lot and suddenly, I don't even have time to even think or worry about stuff ... they just keep coming and coming and coming, that I don't even need to think about what's next, just keep moving & hoping I will survive

And for twists, some people just appeared into my life again ... a former protege who got absorbed into another world, now seeking logic (the way I see things) ... an unknown guy offering me a job ... and a couple more ...

at some points, I just kept wondering ... what is life now? seems to go into a predictable flow of stuff ... not very exciting as what it seemed to me earlier. Is it because I am too used to changing jobs each year? Feeling claustrophobic already in the organization? What I think I am really scared of is, that I don't get sucked into a monotone vein of life, where as cliche puts it, happily ever after. I got a lot more to achieve, a lot more crazy things to do ... a lot more places to see, a lot more people to meet and ultimately a lot of footprints of my life to be imprinted in others.

Guess this is just a horizontal plane ... momentarily until things take off again ... till then ... just enjoy the work .. the good life with friends ...
