In this sophisticated world, one often finds oneself in a struggle with power, fame, money,
attention and many other unnecessary entities of life. I seek to find a simple life, uncomplicated
yet meaningful. A lot more important elements of life are waiting to be discovered. Live your life to the fullest.

Working Life
I know I am getting lazy in updating my blog. Now I finally understand why, in the past, some of my friends who were working takes so long to write an new entry. It is because of laziness. This is also a very convenient excuse. You see, when people work, they tend to be lazier during their leisure time. I do not know how true this is for you, but it certainly describes me, totally. Out of the seven days in a week, 5 days are spent on working. I might have occasional dinner with friends after work some of the weekdays, but it is super draining and I would not recommend doing it frequently. That's why I enjoyed the dinners at Yishun with the FF gang since it is so convenient. So that leaves me with just Friday night, Sat and Sun. And frankly speaking, to enjoy yourself all out for 3 days is suicidal. If I stayed out late on Friday or Sat night, the next day will be a super lethargic one, at least for the morning part. So I will need half a day to recover myself. Time is slipping fast as you can see. Quality time is not that much after all. I have got to manage it well. Throw in my self indulgence sports like tennis, running, swimming, gym etc, and another half day will be gone. And meeting up with different cliques of friends is almost a must every weekends. I just have to rotate the meeting times every few week. And with more cliques of friends, you get busier. Seriously, I am glad to be single now. At least I have more time for myself and friends. I have seen friends who are in a relationship and meeting up with them is getting harder. I am not blaming them, just feeling helpless about it. It is the same for me. Even if I do go out on dates, the weekend seems especially short. I have to turn down the usual gathering and meet up sessions with life time pals and friends. I specially took 15 minutes off just to write this entry before I sleep. Laziness is inborn. When you work harder, it grows inside you. When finally one fine day, it out-grown your own capacity to keep it in check, you will become like me: sitting in front of the computer with a tummy, blogging about how life is so short and quality time is so hard to find. Get a hold of yourself. Welcome to the working world. TOP OF PAGE |
