I am given a choice to choose my path when I first hit the Y junction. I totally ignore the right path and took on the left path believing it might lead me to a better future. However, after walking along the path for quite some time I realize that I might have made a wrong decision. I decided to bash through the thick vegetation hoping to get to the other side to take back the path I did not choose.
This is where I am now, trying to bash through the thick vegetation and getting lost and confuse about the surrounding at times. Am I heading the right way? Is the other path really meant for me? Or am I just being greedy and flicker minded? At times, feeling that I should just turn back, but now I am stuck in the middle totally lost. What to do? I guess the only way out is to just keep walking… walk where I don’t know… for how long, I don’t know. I might end up back in the path I last took.
I really need a map and compass to guide me through…
Back to civilian life again, wear CV everyday, OTOT. I am officially posted to Marina to help out in the multimedia team to work on the post production footages. Trying to set up my laptop so tat I can edit on it, it took me a full day just to set up due to the new format I am working on.
Save money on food since SAF provides but KFC and PIZZA HUT for lunch and dinner gonna make me fat. Super unhealthy… Poor guys who have been working there for months already. Hope the S4 can do something to the meals.
Well this year NDP will be another interesting event as alot of new things is coming up. CONFIDENTIAL. I guess I better keep this information to myself for the time being until the media briefs comments.
Sometimes life is funny, when you are trying to stop and move on to other stuff, the opportunity for the things you are going to put away kept coming up. Well I guess I need to really keep my mind and option opens till I land my first FULL TIME job. Keeping my options open…
Finally I am back to the army after 4 years of civilian life. Kind of not used to it on the first day. Still on a civilian mood. No intention to stay in or do much for now.
Now I am getting involved in NDP. Also, I’m tasked to do a Brigade Corporate Video from the Bde Commander. That’s challenging as they knew I was from a film background and expect more from me. Did I even say that commander wanted to see my portfolio? Well, I hope I can work for NDP on media and not other funny position like safety officer or whatever. Maybe I should try talking to commander again since he did mention of putting me with Brian Gothong Tan on the filming of the NDP event.
Well first day, nothing much, see what I can do from tomorrow onwards.
Have a good break right after my graduation show. Took a flight to Taiwan for a good 10 days of eating, shopping and sightseeing. For the 10 days I have been eating “junk” food along the street, seldom have a proper meal.
It is nice to finally strike out two items on my wish list at once! Haha. Had a good reception for my short film and right after that gone to Taiwan. Been 6 years since I went Taiwan the last time with the Army. Taiwan had really changed a lot and is now much better then I expected, especially in Taipei. It is clean and people are friendly. Did I even mention I saw 3 filming team shooting in Taipei on 3 separate days? Woah! Their cameras are awesome, even for a small TV Variety show. Professional crew!
Now that I am back in Singapore, going to take another one week to pack up my stuff and clear the misc. stuff. Next week I am going back to the ARMY!!! To finish my remaining 4 month of service. Come to think of it, people who are enlisted later then me only serve 2 years and have already ORD way before me. For me already serve 2 years and need to finish the additional 4 months. Sian 1/2. Can’t the ARMY just give me discount? Well that is ARMY! Going back to do some NDP stuff. Sian ½ again… Together sian to the WHOLE!!!
Yah I also went to a very peaceful and tranquility shrine. Forget what is the name. Anyway, made a small donation there and pick a “note”. Well that is something that I believe I have been missing, the missing factor to my future endeavor. I really believe in what it says.
“心开运转，福就来”
I guess I have to really open up my mind to various opportunities around me and expose myself towards the society, stepping out form my comfort zone. Anyway, For the next 2-3 years would be vital for me to kick start my career for whatever I am going to do. Therefore, I need to keep my mind and heart open and be optimistic with everything!
