"Clothes? Bags? Shoes? Food? Anything! I need to get something. FAST!"
I know what you are thinking. That is a typical thought that runs through most girls' head.
"PR? Marketing? What? I need to make a decision but yet I have to make sure I don't regret."
Why am I always so conflicted. There is no sure way to weight the pros and cons for both courses. I need guidance. PRONTO!
Too many thoughts. Too little resources. Sitting here at around 11.30am on a beautiful Saturday morning. By the sea. I am truly appreciative of the fact I was posted 'here'. What's there not to like?
Every day, I feel lost. Is it because I will be out of 'job' in a few months? Unsure of what I want to do with my life? Trying to imitate the adults in my life? Maybe all of the above.
*sighs* All the ramblings are stuck in my head.
Soaking in the warmth and the picturesque scenery, I can't help but 'wander' around my vivid imagination of the possibilities that are readily present in my life. One can't help but admire the god-like power of some who seems to 'own' the world.
Rich in every sense of the word, the ever cliched question pops; Are they happy?
From my current position, it is quite obvious my answer is negative. I shan't try to decipher the 'meaning' of life but will continue to be 'enlighten' by my surroundings.

Enough with the cliches. Just plain 'ol Winston =).

(Office) Politics
Yes, I can hear your judgement out loud; who am I to talk about politics considering that I didn't attend college (just your average polytechnic student). The thing is, politics occurs wherever you go and it doesn't stop even if your dead, literally (i.e. The living folks arguing about who gets more $$$ and whether should the deceased have a Christian or Taoist funeral etc. The likes.)
It is even more strange to know that politics occur even after enlistment. Strange as it may sound, it is the men that gossip MORE (openly and loudly) than women. Why do I bring gossip it in when the subject is politics you may ask? Well, these two, GOSSIP and POLITICS can never be separated. When there is gossip, there will be politics and vice-versa.
How does politics work you may ask? Well, in every society, there is a hierarchy. The leaders, the middle and the bottom or known as the followers. P.S., I fall under the followers.
In each rung, there are people who dislike one another. Sometimes, people from another rung dislike a person from a rung not from his own i.e. Guy/girl A from rung 1 dislike Guy/girl B from rung 2. When caught in this situation, the 'spectators' from the rungs of the 'affected' few (those who dislike each other), 'talk' or gossip about them. This small 'talk' or gossip spread to the people from other rungs and as the game of chinese whispers continue, the gossip evolve from a ball of fire to a erupting volcano. And there you have it; Politics and Gossip.
You can try to rid society of politics but it will never happen because there will always be juicy gossip just waiting to be told from one person to another.
You know what I am talking about *winks*.

The weekly travel trip (Week 3, Day 5)
Good morning =)! It is a fabulous Monday morning and I am perky! The side effects of too much caffeine I guess.
Currently, I am hungry...still. *feeling Ris Low* I think she is brilliant and brave. *salut*
My food is depleting but on the contrary, my morale is at all time crazily...(I am afraid to say) high! Okay, so I am trying to entertain myself but hey, I've got to do what I've got to do.
Shoulders aching, migraine and needs sleep, when can I get my 'holiday'?!
So long for now. Gonna enjoy my cup noodles =)

The weekly travel trip (Week 3, Day 1)
Today is Wednesday. 24 hours before the usual Thursday mounting. About 190 hours more till our dismount. The thought itself is kinda scary but hey, I have one freaking week's worth of off; that is 7 whole days! And, I brought enough 'picnic' and entertainment to last me throughout the next 190 hours.
REWIND!
Just so you know, currently, my life is in a rut. A knowledge-deficit rut. I have mounted duty twice. This 'work' week is my third. I DISLIKE being stuck in ... ehh wait, I am not allowed to indulge others in such information.
Anyway, in a nutshell, my work week is Thursday to Thursday; if you count by days, is 8 days, if you count by hours, full 7 days.
Recently, actually about 3 months ago, I joined something random. Didn't believe I was chosen for the finals. Now, due to the physically and mentally demanding nature of my 'work', I kinda regretted and tried once to back out. Did I mention that the schedule for that 'contest' was delayed partly due to me? Guilty!
I just want to get my life back in order. Is it too much to ask?

BFFs
6 years. SIX long years has gone. My BFFs, I miss you dearly. Especially you H. We've known each other earlier. Plus, now you are in Canada. I tried finding good pictures of the 3 of us but I could only find two, and they are both so dated. Once you are back on the sunny island, we are going out!
