Ever since towards the end of my poly life, My adventures and misadventures has been in a stalemate.
My life has totally no deadlines except for signing in on time for work. No test to study for, no gila friends to run silly aroud the school, no class politics and gossip. No chasing club member or being chased to be more productive and efficient.
That was what life was about and what I enjoyed the most. My faithful girlfriend(hehe angkat bolah abit lah), club mates, hobbies, friends and school work all mixed into one hell of a sinful and mind blowing concoction.
On one hand I really want to work full time and start my career but I guess I have 3 – 4 more months before I get enlisted so whats the point.
Part time work provide my monetary needs but the satisfaction from doing somthing I love is no longer there.
I did the next best thing.
Satisfy myself!
Volunteered myself as a guide to Npark nature reserve. Has always been one in touch with nature,
Regretted not enrolling into the horticulture & landscape management course in NP. Blame me and my ambitions with a bit of brainwashing by the media and relatives on thriving aviation sector.Fast forward few year, thriving my ass. Large airlines grounding planes and forcing staff to take no pay leaves, maintainence and overhaul sides seemed sluggish. knn even ground handler Swissport are ceasing operation.
Should have gone with my heart and not what I though would be good. Ah the irony, with that kinda though it just becomes a double edge sword.
Just a matter of which side cuts deeper.
Knn better let me through my love..
