*blows dust off blog*
Whew, a long time since I wrote an entry. Don't think anyone visits here anymore, but if you
happen to read this, Congratulations! You are one of the lucky few to visit my blog in this
dark times.
Dark times, I would say, Dark times. Life for me has been degraded to a
repetitive cycle of sleep, wake, work and back to sleep. To add to my bad enough
situation, from the second week of work I started having a sore throat, than coughing,
followed by RELENTLESS coughing. What's more, I discovered recently that I
have a lower capacity to breath. Oh, woe is me....
Sounds bad huh? Like I'm about to die any moment. But actually, I'm feeling fine (except for
the cough). Don't worry, still going strong. I just.. Feel that I'm losing myself.
That feeling, when I woke up one day I actually asked myself in front of the
mirror:"Woah, who are you?" Just a few weeks ago, I'm Alex, the.. yeah you
guessed it. No points for you. But now, I'm Alex, Part-time waiter at Orchard Cafe.
It's not that I don't like my work. I DO
take pride in my work. It's just that... I feel that if I have to work like this
for my entire life, I will be such a loser. And now, sitting at my computer typing
away at a blog, makes me reflect on what has happened since I was first introduced
to the cafe. Nostalgic, definitely. But I also found that I had absolutely NO time
for... How do you put it... Kind of.. Like.. A 'conversation' with yourself. Going
through my list of 'What happened' and asking myself, 'Did I do it
wrong?', 'Should I have done it this way??'. Sounds weird huh? But before I
started working, I do this almost daily. Just me, myself and I. If
you REALLY understand what I just wrote, give yourself a slap in the face.
Congratulations, you are definitely as insane as me.
Sigh... Gotta stop writing this weird blog and go to sleep.. *Stretches*
Another day of work is due...
