These days have been great! No school, no homework, no exams, no more assembly and no more waking up at 6 for school! This is like paradise for me.
Maybe too much paradise...
I know this may sound crazy but I'm actually missing the good ol' days. The exams, the homework, the awful canteen food(no offence). Seems like I have already been adapted
fully into that kind of life.
Now that you suck the water out of the pond, what's the tadpole going to do?
Its time to move on, I can't continue living off my life in the past. Got to stop hovering in the sky with clouds between my knees, hitching on free rides on monsoon winds. Time to get down on solid ground and be rooted.
Evolve tadpole, or you will die.

Dreams
(with relevance to my previous post)
Hello people, i'm back!

This morning i stumbled upon an article on the straits times. it was about an airforce pilot who toped his training in Canada. Wow.. It was amazing. Being a pilot happend to be his childhood dream. And it so happened that i had the same dream too. That's an example of a childhood dream came true.

I dreamt of myself as a pilot too. Flying through layers of clouds, gazing upon my hometown thousands of feet above the ground. What glamour.. What honor it will be to be able to defy gravity and rise above the endless skies.

However, should i really go ahead and realise my dream? That question popped into my head out of nowhere. What if that dream of mine was only a fantasy. Am i willing to place my survival of my dream at stake in order to fufil it?

There are moments in my life which i come to this dilema. Indecisive me, i still haven't got enough courage yet to pursue my dreams and face whatever consequence which may follow. i still can't trust my direction of life to my instinct. what i really want. i don't know

Could this be a case where one have to many choices that he can't make a firm decision? This could be what they mean when they say: "when you are on the verge of death, and nothing else matters can you truely build up a resolve so firm that it overcomes all other desires."
