Recent Change...

It's been yet another year and a bit since I last wrote. I have been way too lazy. ^^" Though it doesn't make too much of a difference to many people whether I write or not, it's more of something that I need to do for myself. Expressing my thoughts here provides a form of relief since it's normal for most of my thoughts and feelings to get bottled up somewhere and it gets released in an unhealthy way...

Anyway, as a form of update, I moved from KL to Hong Kong in January. The most common question that I get asked these days is "How are you settling?". My most common answer is "Ok, I guess. The space and crowd is something that would take me a while to get used to". For those who don't know me well, I grew up in a place where space and crowd was never an issue. Instead, space was abundant and the human population is less than the sheep's population (something that many people laughed at as well). Why oh why did I move again? The grass is always greener on the other side I guess. It's a journey which I set myself up to take. If I am lucky, I will eventually find out how my dots are connected.

My recent move has had its challenges. Not only because of the space and all. It's also due to the job role, the environment, the whole package. It has prompted a question which I have been placed in a box and hid it somewhere. It's the age old question. What makes you happy? What are you passionate about? I've been telling myself these questions shouldn't be too hard to answer. At the end of the day, no one knows you better than yourself, right? So I thought anyway. I have some vague idea. But I've never pursued these vague ideas of mine. I get lazy, and then I take the easy way out by forgetting about it. It's a cycle that I really need to break. I can't continue to give myself these excuses, fluffy ideas. It will eventually be too late one day.

I don't want to end up spending time on things that don't mean much to me at all. Days are long but the years are short. Before you know it, it's over. I didn't give myself a new years resolution at the beginning of this year. Today, I'm giving myself one. I want to stop going around in this circle that I'm always in. Let's see how things pan out...
