i have been trying to keep this blog a secret.. trying hard not to let pple know i have one.. so far it succeeded..
i dun have to answer all questions post to me, but curiosity will always get the better of man, so i talk 1st.. there is a reason why i like this name.. its abit retorical though.. i mean aren't zombies supposed to be soulless? well, tts not the main pt.. i have been living for the past 20 years of my life.. there is one qn tt is always bugging me..
why and what do u live for?ok, make tt 2.. the way i see things and the working environment i am in now, i feel directionless.. i have no idea what am i looking for these days.. no diff from a zombie.. ideals and having an aim in life makes life more meaningful and keeps people sane.. really sane.. even if it means working your butt out just to improve the organisation's efficiency or help contribute to the orgaisation u r in..
it makes me feel disheartened to see my friends around me all saying tt they wanna earn money, but dunno how to go about doing it, except for working, be it part time or full time.. once u ord, u start finding and trying to get a job.. once u get a job u have to quit after 7 to 8 months because you have to enter university.. after you graduate after 4 years, what's next? work again?
its a never-ending cycle.. and aim in life is to work? i am not condeming work, but its just that i wanna ask that all important qn..
why do you work?if the work that u r doing fits your passion, then really good for u.. if its really for the sake of paying off the debts accumulated during your uni life, pls reconsider.. cuz u oso haf to support your parents.. what irony when we study in our textbooks that s'pore is becoming a grey society and we have to support more people than before, and yet most of us dont take immediate action..
the whole cycle is making young pple like us becoming zombies already.. brainwashed by the norms set by our society..
work, because i think that is the only route to take..for my friends who are going to ORD in 1 week's time, i hope u can take some time of ur life to re-think about what r u doing with ur life.. dont be another zombie like me..
perhaps, for a start, re-watch
the matrix again, and focus on the values and messages that the wachowski brothers want to send across..
