Unfounded

There are so much more meaningful things I could be doing right now instead of this. Flippin’ through books at MPH perhaps. Or have a nice long chat with Airene over tea. I haven’t met her since she came back from Australia and she is leaving soon even before I could imbas kembali this friendship we treasure so much. </3

It is not that I don’t like my job. It is not that I don’t understand that this is the nature of a typical working life. This is definitely the PMS talking and this is also one way that could make me feel a bit better – to rant about it knowing someone would read and relate to what I’m feeling right now. Are you in an office when you’d rather be doing something with someone else? Sounds so wrong.

I thought cats have 9 lives but perhaps Doraemon is more of a robot than a pussy. Gotta fix his legs during lunch time and then change the script for the stupid sketch. Throughout the weekend I’ll be working on a Doraemon CNY event at Mines. Now if you wanna kidnap me you know where to find me. No I didn’t mean that! Sigh…

Why can’t I be completely, genuinely happy with any jobs that I have? Why do I constantly; PMS or not, feel like I should be or belong somewhere else? How come this country doesn’t feel like home? I speak Bahasa more fluently than any other Chinese out there; shouldn’t I feel more home then? They say feeling lost is close to being found, but I haven’t found anything up till today.  ):

Seriously, you don’t have to read this. I’m sorry that you did. Maybe I should have placed this sentence before anything else.

    awwa i’m sorry to hear that. Well, I can’t really imagine how you feel now as I haven been to a rigid working life yet. But Im graduating this year so I’m very prepared for it.

    But somehow I can feel you. Because I’m not a person that follows blindly on instructions and work work on a non flexible working hour. You know urself that you like performance and acting and it’s the same as me too! People like us wants flexibility and freedom and likes to do thee things we are interested in.

    Nevertheless, cheer up!

    I totally understand how you feel. I’ve literally gone through about 15 majors when I was in college because I’d start one all excited and then realize how it wasn’t right for me, and I doubt I’ve ever been happyy at any of my jobs. I know I’ve probably settled with this job I have but at a certain point, you just get tired of searching and pick the lesser of the evils, right? It’s the most depressing thing to feel lost and aimless since your job is probably the one thing you’ll be doing for the rest of your life =( Come to the US (once the economy here picks up!) or take a nice vacation!!!

    PMS do the talking ar? ;p

    Always remind yourself what you want in future and chase the dream. Subconscious will push you to the target if your will is strong enough.

    Cheers!

    I guess all girls are the same…we get emo really fast.
    And true….working life is definitely NOT fun. But then again,
    isn’t it all part and parcel of life??
    I am so not looking forward to working.

    Well, most ppl hate their job… one might worked countless of jobs until they found what they want..but most ppl don’t. some ppl used to the job that they do, so they can last at a company for like ages. we hate all this jobs but still need to do it because thats where u get the $$$ to spend.

    Some ppl let go of their high paying job which they hate and work in a place that makes much lesser but is what they like to do.. are you up to that yet?

    No matter what, life must go on. There are a lot of ppl out there who share the same situation like you. I myself actually don’t really hate my job but it’s not that bad anyway.

    p/s – I can speak bahasa until most of malays say my bahasa very fluent and doesn’t have the chinese flavo in it :p
