Lost my way.
Just when you thought my blog is dead, guess again.. Due to popular demand, (well, it's actually just Weiyang commenting that I haven't been blogging in a long time, and I have no idea who else will actually bother reading,) I shall start blogging again! I'm actually waiting to get myself a nice camera phone so i can make my blog more lively by adding photos. But that will have to wait, because the phone that fits 80% of my criteria (read: Samsung G800) and which I have decided to get has been priced very ridiculously by Singtel. In fact, I find that Starhub's mobile plans are so much better than Singtel, if you do not take into consideration coverage and network issues, that is. Well, personally I won't be able to comment on Starhub's coverage, since all my life I've been using Singtel, but based on what others have said, I guess Singtel still has better coverage. I've somewhat decided on changing to Starhub, but I still loathe the idea of getting a new mobile number. Pfft..
So anyway, yesterday, I decided that my hiatus from running/jogging must come to an end. Hence, I went jogging around my neighbourhood. And no, it isn't hard to guess what happened. Yes, I lost my way. I frigging (do a Wikipedia search and you will realize that frigging is a censored version of *toot*) lost my way in my own neighbourhood..
I initially wanted to run 15 min in one direction and U-turn so I will run for about half an hour. But then I decided to explore new territories so that I won't have to see the same sceneries again. So I tried running one big round, but somewhere inside the round, I made a left turn instead of a right turn, and ended up at a dead end. Yes, it was literally a dead end, and the road just ended there. By then, I had already ran for 35 minutes, and I figured I probably won't be able to last all the way back if I were to retrace my path, considering I was armed with only my handphone and with no water or money. So I slowly walked back and found the place where I took a wrong turn and managed to find a shorter route home, and I ended up running for 35 minutes and walking for half an hour. Perfect, isn't it?
But anyway, talking about losing my way.. I guess literally losing my way is much better than figuratively doing so. But apparently, I'm lost in both ways. I realized that until now, I still have no idea which direction to head towards for my future. I'm still living for the moment. Planning for the future is such a.. I'm at a loss for words, haha.. But anyway, I remember hearing before this quote, that a job is to do what you like to do and getting people to pay you for doing it. That's exactly what I'm searching for, but sadly, I'm still unable to find it.
So anyway, the Green Team went to The Crew Room (some karaoke bar) on Monday night to celebrate farewell for Jon. I had quite a bit to drink, (and no, I don't "Merlion" unless it's beer,) and it felt great. I guess that's the reason why people go drinking in the first place. But do not be mistaken, I wasn't drunk at all. It's just a feeling of.. Haha, lost for words again. But all I can say is that i felt high and low at the same time. Alcohol isn't exactly something for forgetting all your troubles. It's more like.. something that allows you to let loose even while troubled. Heh..
So anyway, Jon will be flying off on Thursday to Australia, and I'm really glad for him. I hope that I, too, will find my destined path soon. But until then, it's back to living for the moment..
