Living for the moment, forsaking the future

A common mistake amongst the young. Either too caught up in or comfortable with their lives to realise that change is required for the future. In a dynamic envorinment like today inertia will be the bane of society. Or least the beginning of your downfall.


There is a saying that goes on about how today is a gift, hence a present. Duh. Today is the gift for tomorrow. And what you do about today will determine what present tomorrow receives. Screw it up and tomorrow will receive crap. That being said, to give up everything you have today to go in search of what you want in the future would be a pile of bullshit. Work for today, but keep an eye on the future. An eye for changes that will open more doors. Changes that will enhance you, be it career-wise or socially.


Am I making sense? What say you?

Mandy

I remember all my life
Raining down as cold as ice
A shadow of a man
A face through a window
Crying in the night
The night goes into


Morning, just another day
Happy people pass my way
Looking in their eyes
I see a memory
I never realized
how happy you made me


oh Mandy
Well you came and you gave without taking
but I sent you away, oh Mandy
well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
I need you today, oh Mandy


I'm standing on the edge of time
I Walked away when love was mine
Caught up in a world of uphill climbing
The tears are in my mind
And nothing is rhyming,


oh Mandy
Well you came and you gave without taking
but I sent you away, oh Mandy
well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you today,
oh Mandy


Yesterday's a dream
I face the morning
Crying on the breeze
the pain is calling,


oh Mandy
Well you came and you gave without taking
but I sent you away, oh Mandy
well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you today,
oh Mandy


Too little too late?
Nice song though..

The hurt may be yours to carry, but the pain I feel too. I'll be with you, dear friend.

Home!

I'm home! Reached Changi International Airport at 0730hrs this morning. The plane left the other side at 0530hrs. Thankfully I slept throughout the journey. Although it was a waste of a Raffles Class ticket, but at least I'm relatively well rested.


The conditions weren't easy over there. But then again, I didn't find it that tough. Either because I'm too slack, or I'm too competent. Yeah that's it. I'm too competent. :)) Anyway, I don't really want to dwell on the topic of training.


I blew all my money over there on cigs and food. Think I gained a bit of weight. Gotta start exercising again.


I don't have to work the whole of this week! Except for some happy hour thingy I have on Friday night, I'm as free as a bird the rest of the week. just too bad my friends are all still at work. *snigger*


Valentines' Day in Brunei was absolutely thrilling. I did nothing what-so-ever. Best Valentines' I ever had. :))

BYE!!

I'm at the airport now. My gate just opened 15 minutes ago. So until I get back, take care and be safe! BYEE!!

I'm leaving on a jet plane.. (AGAIN!)

The past half a year has been crazy. Getting drunk, dudden changes to plans due to unforeseen circumstances, going overseas for training, coming back,getting drunk, being betrayed, being lied to, finally going to Europe, getting drunk, posting out, going for another overseas training. Did I mention getting drunk? :))


Anyway I leave tonight, and hopefully when I return, a whole new chapter of my life will begin. Definitely not the last, but it should get me there. And no, I'm not talking about my car.


Life is so fragile, listening to the stampede and the ferry sinking on the radio just made me sad. Even more so when I heard that the crew of the ferry jumped ship before the passengers. Life is just too short. To find someone to spend it with isn't easy.


I guess I'm getting a writer's "blog". :)) I've got so many things to say but I just don't know where and how to begin. Anyway, I'll try to do that when I'm back.


Till then, ciaoz!
