Almost 25, but still in school.
Studied for 18 years, but never held a job before.
4 yrs as an adult, but still totally dependent on parents.
Used to build simple gadgets, but now detest engineering.
Used to want to be a professor, but now can't stand the sight of them.
Used to like working with machines, but now prefer dealing with people.
Need to think in numbers, but prefer to think with words.
In a world of one-right-answers, but prefer to deal with uncertainty.
Specialising in manufacturing, but sending out resumes to banks.
Needs time to grasp maths concepts, but understands economics with little effort.
Supposed to understand physical forces, but prefer to understand market ones.
Uninterested in Planck and Boltzman, but love to read Freud and Jung.
Sick of studying such crap, can't wait to be working.
Things that I'm good at, can't really earn me a living.
Things that I'm trained in, would make for miserable living.
Things that I'm interested in and can earn me a living, don't know me too well.
All I can depend on, is not what I am, but who I am.
What's important? What's out there, or what's in here?
Nothing to my name, but only hope and potential.
The more things change, the more they remain the same.
Note to self: Two more months left to bring about a more drastic change.
I'd like to think that there is some method to my madness, some control in my chaos.
Split, Croatia
always looking somewhere else...

About Me
- Rockie
- Singapore
- A guy stuck in a university course he finds absolutely no interest in. A guy who wants a journal for his thots, to capture snapshots of his mind before he loses it to exams. A guy who loves variability and variety, who always yearns to wander everywhere, to expand his horizons. A guy who can't sit still, who'd rather be kayaking, trekking, diving, sailing, phototaking, travelling. A guy who irritates his frens to no end coz he's unable to sit still. A guy who find joy just standing on the peak of a mountain, overlooking rolling hills, lush jungles, wide open spaces. Or on a boat in the middle of the wide, open ocean. Or interactions with animals, wild or otherwise. A guy who wants to improve on himself, thus needs to record down his thots to find out how he can. Also needs an avenue to vent his negative thots. In short, just a guy, just slightly different from everyone else. >>>> Finally, he is free. and he can't bear to delete this, which is an entry itself.

I've just graduated from college last April. And when you talk of drastic changes, it's an understatement.
Your worries and your fears are all part of it --graduation anxiety.
Whatever happens, changes will be there. So it's up to you whether to enjoy them or not.
Just sharing... Keep posting! ;)
hmmm...
actually wat i'm trying to say is i want change... among other things. basically, there're many contradictions, things have been changing and i want things to change further.
i'm not worried that things are going to change... i'm worried that things won't and i'll still be stuck in this F-ed place. ie. not graduate this yr. so is that graduation anxiety? or non-graduation anxiety? hahah
as many people say, change is the only thing constant.
things can't exactly be the same. you just have to choose which to focus on and what has changed, evaluate it and see if you'll like it...
well, that "non-graduation anxiety" cud be part of the graduation anxiety.
hahaha!
*stay happy! it's not merely an emotion; it's also a choice.*
