adulthood.

i start work tomorrow.
so i felt like this deserves an entry...considering the fact that i've been soo busy having fun this past month that i've neglected updating this blog. also because there really isn't much drama in my life these days, such that i don't feel compelled to blog or engage in any cathartic writing.

it's not that i'm completely okay, but it IS the case that things are looking up and i feel like after everything, writing this thesis, getting my grades, graduating and embarking on a new career...that i've reached a new stage in life, where i leave the baggage of youth (yes, youth is sometimes a burden) behind, for the freedoms of adulthood.

to say that i am completely looking forward to adulthood would be an utter lie. i am inherently lazy. so work is an antithesis to all that i enjoy doing and believe in. but i'm slowly starting to accept the fact that everybody has to be put through this, for the "good of society" and that the taitai lifestyle only comes to a select (lucky) few. besides, i'm in serious debt after my grad trip, and i plan to start my collection of luxury bags and shoes - and the only way i can do this, is by earning a steady (albeit awesome) income.
i also feel like, it is much less of a stigma for my generation now, to make mid-career switches. i feel like i belong to this awesome generation in which we don't have to worry about where the roads lead us, and that we're looking to enjoy the ride rather than arrive at some destination.
and i know that if i have this attitude, it makes me want to go on forever - if you get what i mean.

sleep is overrated. sleep is for the weak. i spent my final week of freedom basically maximising my days, my time and doing as much as possible, seeing as many people as possible and making sure i live it all up before work starts. i enjoy working hard but i also love playing hard. i'm all about living life to the extreme these days. and now, it just seems even more meaningful.
