Out of the blue
Actuali I feel like shutting down my blog . Hope u guys dont mind when I finally bring myself to do it one day.
Well I am just wondering why am I blogging. I know some of you read it religiously (;p) , I appreciate it. Tks. But its not really the issue of whether ppl care to read or not. I just suddenly find it very weird for me to have to update and announce things to some of you through this mode of contact. Its weird. Its good and bad in a way. I dunno y am I feeling this way out of a sudden too.
Despite having felt this way from time to time, I have been blogging for 4 freaking yrs! OMG, Thats pretty long! Maybe its time to put a beautiful full stop to this blogging journey.
Anyway I feel like signing up for singing class to learn how to sing, seriously. Anyone has any good and cheap singing schools to recommend and wanna join together with me? Hahe.. Well not that I aspire to become a singer la. I just want to learn the techniques of singing so that I can enjoy singing better. I used to like to sing but not able to sing well gradually made me lose the interest in singing as time goes. HA. You know. I used to record my own singing for fun and leisure when I am bored at home. Den when I listen to it, I will be like thinking: " Oh man...why like that one? so boring. no gao cao one." Sucks la. haha. Yalor so I am feeling the impulse to want to learn how to sing better with my diaphragm and all. Its good for voice production.
Anyway I like a song quite much. haha. it may be an old song alr by now or wat la i dunno but hu cares. I like it loh! Go and listen ! Apologize by Timberland. Has also been playing on radio stations.

Hi. I am an unemployed.
Tag reply to pei and others who might be in similar state of mind, just to share:
Yah I quitted without a job (but with a plan in mind in the end). I did try to look for a replacement job frantically at the earlier stage of contemplation. I send resumes to various places, hoping to get contacted just so that I can quit my job eventually. Lucky I was silly enough to state in my resume that I can only start work in a few months time so I never got contacted in the end. HA. I later rationalize that it would be a hasty rush if I were to find and end up in another job just so to be able to quit my job with a proper reason.
I was contemplating for around 2 to 3 mths then. I spoke to a number of people including some of you thru email and in person, and also some of my closer colleagues. Their responses are positive and encouraging. Well, in a way, I choose the right ppl to talk to. I alr know the answer inside me. I just want reaffirmation and encouragement to do what I want. I keep hinting to my parents to test their reactions too. Well my parents are the best parents on earth so of cos I am least worried abt what they think cos I noe they care abt me.
In addition, I was also exploring the option of furthering my studies too, weighing the pros and cons, looking ard here and there. I searched and found something.
Thus it was a pretty long contemplation and struggle before I finally DO it with reason to my boss that I want to plan for furthering my studies.
Of cos I felt bad to leave my colleagues at such critical time when staff strength is low and caseload is high. I really wanted to stay for a few more mths initially just so to wait for more new staff to join (which is the reason why I state in my resume in Mar that I can preferably start work from July onwards. HA. So funny now that I come to think of it). Some ppl told me that I am silly. They said: The organization won't die becos of you. There will always be insufficient staff. You are still young. You have your life to run. Go ahead to do wat you want.
I like my colleagues generally. They probably will be the only reason that is worth for me to stay in the job. But my priority in a job is very simple. There must be job satisfaction and enough motivation for me to find meaning in continue doing it. Others are secondary.
Just my penny worth of advice- listen and follow your heart. I really did what my heart tells me. It has been cringing for quite some time and I was desperate enough to ease the discomfort. And I made the choice. I was very happy that I did it. I am also prepared to live with the consequences of it, considering that my circumstances allow me to.
Anyway just to share, I am currently doing an attachment stint at NUH & SGH for observation sessions. (Anyway Yiling, thanks for helping me to ask abt KKH too though too bad it is fully booked)
The application for the masters course that I am interested to take in nus is open now which I most probably would try to apply for it after finishing my attachment prgms. Its very competitive to get in and I am crossing my fingers. Anyway, even if I fail to get in, it is probably a blessing in disguise for me. Other options shall have to set in, for better or worse. Things happen for a reason. I can always make up for it.
Anyway my sis' show is up at 9pm. Do catch it and support her if you can. Tks. She has a hard time acting a role that is so not her. Ha. Who ask her to be an actor rite? Actor is like that one mah. You dont act urself leh. Hee. Anyway, its no easy job lar. No job is easy. No money is easy to earn. There are sacrifices to be made. Again, you weight ur pros and cons and you decide for urself.
Wah I write so long ah.....cos I am unemployed mah. Got time but no money.....haha.
