A Methaphorical Circumcision

It has been a while since I had the time or the energy to post something new. I been living in a colder country for at least a month now. Somehow, I still haven't get it together. It was my hope that a new environment would, in one way or the other, stir up my inner bum and push me away from the soft and warm embrace of my bed. Still nothing...

Like the rest of the cultured humans, I also wanted most, if not all, of the normal things bachelors dreams of. A grumpy old boss, friends with which you can bitch about your boss, and a love that awaits you after a 10-hour meeting with old grumpy.

In 4 days, I will be interviewed for a job that I am assured to get. The details are irrelevant, but know this, it will mark the day of my adulthood. I never actually considered myself an adult. Let us just say, my parents, never treated me as such but come Sept 22, this boy will be metaphorically circumcised.

So, back to the present, I have no concrete plan as of now. Although it is crystal clear what things should I do: Job1, Job2, and Study. There is no specific time frame as of now. However, ideally, at least one job is a full time job in my chosen field, a part time job that address my weaknesses, while getting my grad degree.

Easier said than done. I know. Just regularly waking up before 8 is a great tribulation, how much more doing 3 things that requires 100% of one's effort. There is a big possibility that I won't be able to do all these things. But hey, if I'm going to set my goals, I'm going to put it way up there.

PS: Best wishes to my cousin who just got married last Sept 9.
