was talking to song yun jus now, basically jus catching up with her. haven talked to this small girl in a long long time. we talked abt age, abt how old we are compared to the freshies. den something caught me. what will i be doing 10 yrs down the road when i turn 30yrs old? since i was a kid, my ambition has always been to serve my country. to be a police at first and more recently, a soldier especially a commando. alot of pple have questioned why i wan to do this. they say its tough and its not as easy as it seems. but to me, everybody has to die and why not die in service of your nation. at least i know i died while serving my country and serving a purpose instead of dying like every other person.(i know its extreme but thats jus the way i feel). den recently, i received my pes status and it was C due to the dislaocted patella suffered in sec school. and immediately i knew my chances of being a soldier was gone but i still have not given this dream because i believe the army does not need so many clerks. hahaha.
but if the army really does not wan me, wad do i do? that bit i have nv given it much thought. what do i do with my life once i come out of the army? all my first choice options were nv really options to begin with...... being a professional athlete; thats not going to happen simply due to my age and the fact that i nv truly grasped the chance while still playing for the school. serving the nation; as explained above, im still waiting for my chance. that jus leaves me with the prospect of the business field. i was lucky to have taken accounts in sec school, not of my own choice but because of my results, but if i had taken A maths instead. sure as hell, i would have been nowhere in life now. accounts really opened my eyes to the prospect of working in the business field as i liked that subject from the moment Ms Tan introduced it to 4e6.
long story short, it was accounts that landed me in TP-Dip in Bus. from there i further realised that my interests were in the Tourism industry and Banking sector although i prefer the former. with the IR due to open in 2008, that has given me a very big opportunity. here comes the problem. i grow sick of things very easily; quickly getting bored over something and searching for something new to explore(thus the first 2 options of soldier and althete as they always bring new challenges). i do not know whether this interest in the tourism and banking sectors would last me a lifetime or i will, jus like many other things, grow sick of it. thus the question, what will i be doing 10yrs down the road? in the banking/tourism industry or doing something new? i guess at this point in time i will jus have to take things one step at a time and see wad the future holds for me and not bother myself too much. i shall end this post with my motto in life; Live For The Moment.
