it's one of the songs in Sugar Ray's 14:59 album, with me since 1999. Haven't listened to it for very long, so searched and pulled it out. coz this song seems so apt right now. plus, i like every song in the album, which is rare.
Things are falling apart. At work. in Feb 2007 i found my dream job. Data collection, analysis, presentation n recomendation; project work; and what i produce affects the way the company operates, whether in sg, or other SEA countries. Meaning i'm doing stuff that i like, and it makes a difference. with a nurturing, coaching boss who lives his life in a way i look up to (a rarity), and a caring, capable, chio colleague who made me see fireworks when she smiled.
a short 10 months into this dream job, and its starting to come apart. changes will be happening. it's not fair - i hvn't even had my dream job for 1 year. i was actually aiming for 2 yrs. but then of coz i'm painfully aware that life is never fair.
my boss told me that from now until mid feb, things will be intense. i predict up to march, and am mentally preparing myself for 12 hrs a day everyday for 2 mths. no need to make dinner appointments anymore. maybe weekends too. but no worries. i can handle whatever is thrown at me. bring it on. (haha)
Happy New Year.

I once told her my reason for 'risky' mountain climbing, diving, backpacking trips: "I want to go close to the edge, so I can see how far the drop is." At that time I didn't know how encompassing that sentence would be.
I'd like to think that there is some method to my madness, some control in my chaos.

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.

Well, as long as you are still standing at the edge and not experience the drop... I guess that's fine right? haha
