the world is changing, and so are we.

it's funny. we're all moving on to different phases of our lives. once upon a time (not that long ago) we were all still in school. look where we are now.

school... ah, those were the days... the carefree days when we were bounded only by project deadlines and exam dates. all we had to do was go to school for the first half of the day and then we were done! we had all the time in the world to play (except for those couple of weeks before exams when we were buried by the books. not by choice but by circumstances!). primary school days came and gone. blink blink blink. and we were done with secondary school too. blink. jc was over. blink blink. next thing we know, it was graduation. what we had spent the most part of our lives doing was finally finished. 20 years spent studying. is this the light at the end of the tunnel or are we just going from one tunnel to another tunnel, with just a quick glimpse of the pretty blur sky above us? 20 years spent moulding us and preparing us for this next phase of our lives. 20 years just went by like that. shocking.

where do we go from here? what do we do next? i started work. my friends started to work too. i look around me and realise that we have all grown up. unknowingly, we had somehow stepped right out of our school shoes and into leather shoes/stilettos. we spent 20 years studying. are we going to spend the next 20/30/40 years working and then the rest reaping the fruits of our labour? when i was 6, i could have never imagined what i will be like 20 years from then. it seemed like that could only happen in another universe. at 6 years old, turning 10 seemed like a milestone in life. hah. it's weird. being where i am now. everything's so complicated. everything seems much more complicated. i don't know what i want to do. i know i need to go somewhere, i just don't know where. i know i have an end destination, i just haven't found out where that end destination is. yet.

where will i be 20 years from now? i don't know. remember that old song? que sera sera. what will be, will be.
