So much has been said about changing of a work environment, what is holding me back?
Never thought a decision like this would be so hard to make.
5 years i have been there and i yearn so much to get out.
Yet, in face with the chance, i could not decide.
I wouldn't know myself if i am going to stay in the army throughout.
I know part of me does not want to.
So, where do that leaves me?
What's so tough making this big decision?
Work environment vs Career prospect
Staying put meant 5 more years at where i am but with an easier road to promotion.
Staying put meant that life will be the same and an easier life.
Life is not going to be fulfilling.
I will be just a engineer in a military police uniform.
Leaving meant starting all over again in a new environment.
Learning new things, getting recognition, starting from scratch.
Will I be happy there?
What if my decision to leave prove to be wrong?
The competition are stiffer there and there is no gurantee that it could be better.
I had to work doubly harder.
Or is it better for me to stay till a higher rank and go back?
I would probably not wait till then.
No one knows what will happen in the future.
But is the future that you see that will determine your decision now.
So what is my decision?
To stay or to leave?

Spending your weekend at home may not be such a bad idea after all.
Giving an unseen comfort to the mind and a good rest to the body.
It certainly helps to ease one's mind and time to think about.
Life has been this way for the past few years.
No changes, just monotonous.
I'm getting so tired of where i am now.
No motivation and no purpose.
Whether i work or not, i still get that paycheck every month.
Most people love that, except for a handful who feels that they could do so much more.
So much so for those who left became better.
We fought a war within ourselves everyday.
How to make our lives better or at least worth living.
I don't hate my life.
I just can't find that purpose of my life.
Undeniable, i thought about my life a lot.
About what i should do, what i could do to make it worthwhile.
I'm fortunate for what i have today.
I did not earn it by myself, i was left with it.
Somehow, i know i would be better off out there.
Doing what i like and making the most out of myself.
Just give me a couple of years more, i will make a difference.
You would treasure it more if you earned it yourself.
out of difficulties, makes miracles

Mission complete
What would you be doing 530am on a Sunday morning?
Probably sleeping, i guess..
Well, i was at esplanade.
No, not because i have not gone back home after some party.
I was there getting ready to run.
Yes, you did not get that wrong. I was there to run.
It was one of those morning when time seems to stop and
there was only one thing in mind..get to the finish line..
2hrs of run was no easy feat.
Not just a jog in the park or a stroll.
It was a gruelling 21km, mentally tested, physically stretched run.
What am i searching for in the wee hours when i could lie
comfortably in my bed enjoying my sleep.
All for the sake of that moment when you cross the finish line
and you know that all the preparation had bear fruits.
That sense of satisfaction and achievement is what push me further.
I'm glad i finished the race. It never felt any better...

mentally tired, physically strained..
Finally woke up after my morning run.
Finished my first 21km this morning.
Can't believe it's so tiring!
At least i met my target of finishing under 2hrs..
Although it's just a little under 2hrs, it's still good enough for a first-timer..
Wonder how it feels like completing a full marathon..
I just couldn't imagine..
But i'm still going to do it.
It's going to be great physical and mental challenge.
Got to train hard..
Now it's payback time, gotta eat to my fullest..
22days to go..

Gone Too Soon...
Today we celebrated the life of a true icon.
The final curtain call for the King of Pop.
Watching the memorial brought back many memories.
Not only the memories of childhood but the memories with ur loved ones.
Life has always been so fragile.
Whether you were a popstar or just a man in a crowd, death has never eluded us.
Memories were flooding back in, along with sorrow and regrets.
It was never death that was scary but the death of your close ones.
I finally realised it's not death till us part but rather death brought us together..in our hearts.
I had always wondered what life meant.
Living for almost a century gone..just like this.
It is saddening when you had not done enough,
when you know what you could have done.
There will never be another you...and i would never forget..
i miss you...
