Work.

It used to be a simple idea for me.

I didn't want to give a damn about the figures, because as long as I enjoyed doing it, I'd be better off than all the other suckers dreading their jobs.

Yet now someone is trying to put a price on my professional career. And all the figures come in, and all the comparisons.

And when the figure posed to me turns out to be higher than the average amount given to a graduate of any of the local 3 unis...

I guess my sense of competition piqued a little.

So without even wasting a month in there, I've already out done the average?

Its so easy to fall into this whole competition bullshit. Its like results.

But results only bring you so much satisfaction, and likewise for money. Life needs to revolve around something much more substantial than work or digits for there to be meaning or any sort of fulfillment, less you start to feel 'empty' inside and either turn to religion or who knows what to fill the void in your life.


What more could I ask for, anyway?
- The base proposal was already higher than that of a degree grad with Cum Laude...
- The working hours are half of what the degree grad does
- I get to work from home
- I get to do something I love

But being the first of my kind in Singapore, I have to set the standard right.

Is my fear of commitment that strong? XD
