you know you're getting older when dinner conversations veer towards the current job market situation, salary increases, buying property and getting married.

on one hand, it's very nice to see how everyone's coping after graduation, how some have gotten really well-paying first jobs and others have great ideas about starting their own businesses.

It is then i thank whoever it was who told me to do my honours. COS I HAVE NO FREAKING IDEA WHATSOEVER, OF WHAT I WANT TO DO AFTER SCHOOL.

Granted, i know well enough my first job wont pay that well, cos i'm so not gonna be a private banker or top shot wealth management consultant, but i dont deny i felt that bit of pressure just now knowing everyone has some direction in life. And who am i kidding if i were to say i'm not bothered by the practical side of it? MONEY TALKS. period.

So now, excuse me while i bury my head under the covers and think of what i want to do "in the future". I hope i make enough money to cover my ass and whatever responsibilities and STILL be able to find some enjoyment in whatever I'm doing. The line between doing what you love and doing it for the money is a very fine one. Let me find a job that gives me both! *grins*
