"But who can say what's best? That's why you need to grab whatever chance you have of happiness where you find it, and not worry about other people too much. My experience tells me that we get no more than two or three such chances in a lifetime, and if we let them go, we regret it for the rest of our lives."


-- Haruki Murakami

live life or die trying

Every other day, I seem to have a mini mental breakdown (no longer than a few minutes), where I stop and think, shit, what am I going to do?

Am I going to be a solicitor, sitting in an office from 9 to 5 slowly killing my soul with conveyancing documents?
Am I going to work my way up through the government and ultimately become a Director-General of some department and be hounded with public complaints everyday?
Am I going to go overseas and attempt postgrad studies at a prestigious university so that my mother can die a happy woman?
Hell, am I going to drop everything and become an actress, just like Ken Jeong from The Hangover, a fully qualified physician, took up acting.

It seems the sunset on the horizon is still bloody blinding and merely a sign that it is time to party.

why don't I blog anymore?

I don't know.

Maybe I've decided it takes too much effort, which is something I have recently been lacking.

The following is an all exclusive interview with Ju:

So what's new?

No much actually.

Done anything cool recently?

Went to 3 job interviews in the past 2 weeks, if that counts as cool.

Well did you get any of them?

One called with a kind rejection. Another called but I missed it. The third is supposed to call me sometime this week. But I mean it's already Thursday afternoon. Hope is fading.

Anything to look forward to, to compensate for this lost hope?

Oh I can answer this one with yes. I'm watching the UQ Law Revue tonight (the funniest annual 2hrs of comedy I've ever experience) and attending the White Orchard Ball on Saturday night.

A ball! How exciting!

I know right. My boyfriend isn't as excited as I am, but then again, I get excited at the thought of putting make-up on. My dearest friend Rachel has lent me a beautiful (yeah Rach, I said beautiful) dress to wear and I promise not to spill anything on it.

I assume you mean alcohol?

Welll alcohol yes, but I'm personally more concerned with the food. There will be beer and wine there, but I'm a fan of neither. I'm just going to focus on making sure my food is in one of two places. My mouth or my plate.

How strange.

Yeah, I can be pretty awkward.
