Working Life

I know it has been a long time since i updated about current life.

I have been working for about 2 months plus so far and everyday i find myself full of energy ready for the unpredictable challenges. There’s an amazing thing about working in a line you love and believe in. Maybe “love” is not entirely the right word. But something which you believe in.

There’s no fixed way of how to go about doing the work I’m doing day-to-day. Sure.. there’s the protocols and administrative work that each of us has to follow but beyond that it’s the living interactions with people who needs our help and guidance that made work challenging and satisfying. There has been times that the problems of people sounded unbelievable but in my line of work; it has made me more appreciative and understanding towards the bubbles of others. They made typical first class world problems look so insignificant. They made me believe that strength is from within and support/guidance from others allow them to go on.

They speak unspoken love and they have the weirdest beliefs that i could ever believe.

but all these.. it’s my work; to counsel and sometimes to help manage their life.

p.s. i’ve been loving brunches and chills so much more ever since i’ve started working!

Halloween 2011.

Possibly the first Halloween I’ve celebrated ever in my life. Just not in my blood nor culture to celebrate Halloween. Also partly because i’ve distanced away from Clubs years ago when i found the joy and satisfaction in ‘proper dancing’.

So yes, you could probably guess from the prelude! Vampy and I spent a nerve-wrecking Halloween at the Universal Studio, Singapore. That was also the first halloween event in the local Universal Studio. There were basically 6 scare zones. The whole setting felt like a chaotic haunted world where you were (supposed) to run for your life. Disfigured ghosts goes after you suddenly or scream into your ears while you were posing to get some shots. (Yes, some ghost did that to me; but I was totally calm)

Supermarket’s Trolley

The Peranakan house was one of the more interesting scare zones. Alot of professional props and actors were invested in this event. Imagine walking through a room with corpses hanging from the ceiling and you have to walk your walk through the corpses while anticipating a possible scare coming up at any point in time.

For those who plays Left4Dead, the Post Apocalyptic Rage is closely made under L4D’s impression.

All in all, it was a good halloween. Nevertheless, the ghosts were not scary coz we all know that they are not real. But what freaked me out more was the rides. I’m always scared of roller-coasters but I’ll always go up and give myself a good scare. Of coz, I’ll hide my head as close to my body as possible and hold on to anything as tightly as possible. The Galactica’s human was a total freak-out for me as I find myself not being able to hold on to anything substantial.

Vampy’s attempt to be one of them.
