::poof. it is an awful long time since I posted something meaningful! you know. those long apparently sophisticated pieces that I post once in a while? They may be boring... but did anyone ask you to read them? =p
Anyways this blog is for me.. and considering not many people know about this blog, I shall do some of the boring postings.

Now is the holidays ja? What do everyone do during the school holidays? *bingo* they go overseas! for what? fun, laughter, and joy? Holidays nowadays is almost synonymous with oversea trips. If someone asked you where did you go this holiday, and you said nowhere, they'll give you this bewildered look as if you just said something really stupid. Then there will be an awkward silence..
Is there anything wrong with anyone not going for a holiday?? I mean if you are going on a holiday, for me, it at least should be meaningful! If you go for a holiday that is meaningless, that is when I will give you a bewildered look. Holidays do not have to be spent overseas to be a real holiday. Why do people 'sigh' or 'sianz' when they say they are not going overseas during the holiday? o.O For me, I had a very fruitful holiday so far that I doubt I can have if I went overseas.
I am not saying going overseas is completely pointless either. As I mentioned previously, holidays must be meaningful. Going overseas can make you learn a lot, that I agree. I have been overseas afterall. The point is drawing the line where enough is enough. If the point of going overseas is to learn and grow, is going overseas every holiday not excessive to say the least? In fact, you learn less and less with every trip if you approach each trip with the same mindset as the previous one(which is what most people do). Nowadays going overeseas for holiday is more a status symbol for kids than anything I feel. You get this high out of telling everyone where you've been, but if you have not learned from them, they are just places you have been to, not places that make up part of who you are today. What is the point of telling everyone you've been to 15 countries when you cannot remember anything useful or interesting from any of them?

I am going to stop here. =p leave you craving for more. Actually I am a little tired.. from working all day. And my work is actually another topic I want to talk about.
What am I doing posting these posts you ask? I am actually writing down my thoughts. Sometimes I find myself short of ideas, so now I am writing down the ideas that I have.
Why am I doing this? Ideas are simply thoughts unless you do something about them. These posts are my first step.
some topics I will write about..just off the top of my head are... my work experience, my ambition, my subj combi, loooove, track, blogging, myself? I don't know.. I'll think of more interesting ones when I come to it.
This is all just practise for KI selection test btw, haha. considering I don't have much chance without studying for it, I have to do what I can to practise. =p
adios.
