Mom!! I employable...but... "Questions...??"
I just read this just now at Mercu while waiting for the kids to come back from break... Its from the book, "Your First Job"....i forgot the author... I'll summarise it in my own words...
What does it mean? ..one should try to find a job that you'd want to do so much that you wouldn't mind doing it for free, or even pay to do it if you won't get paid for it... It sounds kind of bizarre thinking that instead of getting a job to earn, you'd have to pay. But i dun think that is what the author wants to present. I think he is aiming at that drive...that passion. That one should do an occupation that he or she really loves to do that he really really wants to do it with all his heart.
Its like old chinese saying,
Is it that easy to do that in life?
Now that i approach my last year in NUS, i begin to feel the need to rework my plans and goals.
These are the questions in my mind now. I don't want a job that i will suffer doing... I'm blardy sure no one out there wants to suffer doing a job. Yet...i don't want to just have a dream to be rich. Prayers sometimes end up the wrong way that's why i never just pray to be rich.... I've heard of this story wak bon told me last time...about his friend who prayed to be rich. Soon after...his daughter, an air stewardess died in an air crash. He got to claim huge reimbursements and insurance...he got rich. But did he end up happy? Im sure that there are some people out there who prayed to be rid of worries and be happy and they ended up in IMH or tanjong rambutan.... Haiz.... as they all say...
Nawaitu kena suci and ikhlas..
Bottomline... always be sincere and know that He loves you and wants the best for you even though you'd not know what's best for you. Like Nanny McPhee said...
But i dun think that's how god works. He's always around unlike Nanny McPhee... I just like the line..thats all! Hahaha... So now, its back to the drawing boad, answering the questions i posted to myself above.
In retrovision...
I actually like, and still wish i can be like Debbie Travis or some great interior designer and home builders.... Things to do with design....and what am i doing now? Shhhhhiiiiiiiiitttttt...
Bubu is sick today...down with flu again. I need to feed that sweet chum more and more nutritious food. Poor girl...her hingus keeps stickin to her nose hair! hehehe....so cute...
If possible, find a job that you'd pay to do when you can't get paid doing it...

Find a job that you like and you wouldn't be working your whole life..

What am i doing now?
What do i want to be doing in the end?
How do i want to get there?
What do i want to do?
What can i do?

There is something you should understand about the way I work. When you need me but do not want me, then I must stay. When you want me but no longer need me, then I have to go. It's rather sad, really, but there it is.

There are dreams that change with time, experience and knowledge. There are dreams that hold fast, rooted with passion. There are dreams that linger only in your sleep... There are those so vivid you'd want to live it. Dreams and reality are but think divides......how do you cross that line?-vzoj in thot
Bubu is sick today...down with flu again. I need to feed that sweet chum more and more nutritious food. Poor girl...her hingus keeps stickin to her nose hair! hehehe....so cute...
