Insanity

There are three things which I am interested in achieving in life or rather before I meet my creator.

1. Be a humanities teacher.
Not necessarily I have to teach in government schools. Private schools will do fine (if I were even in their "considering" list). Knowing that I do not have any qualification at the moment, I still feel like trying out.

Humanities is a subject that not everyone likes to teach. Reason being, it is not a popular subject. I don't know. Go figure.


2. Be a photography journalist.
Not many knows that I love photography. It is because, I do not have the financial resources to get myself a decent DSLR (Digital Single-Lens Reflex) camera. Nonetheless, I believe in the perspective of how a picture is being taken. Not necessarily a pro-DSLR is needed. It is the skill, baby.

Secretly, I would like to travel to countries such as (North Korea, Afghanistan, etc) to capture unique moments of its citizens living there. Or anything to show the world how these fellow human beings needs help or what they are going through.

Plainly, I just want people around the world to be more aware of what is really going on out there. Especially Singaporeans - most of them are living in their little cozy nests (yes, like me as well. Sigh.).


3. Events Project Manager / Producer in the Media Industry.
Since my polytechnic years, I had a small slice of what the media industry is like. It's hectic, tedious & really need a lot of "links" as well as resources.

Perhaps I would like to produce a film, get a story out in motion pictures. I had manage a video production team back in school & I enjoyed it. I know it's kinda amateur though, but the main thing is, I enjoyed it. Who enjoys their school projects?

Or if not, managing entertainment events. I love planning and executing events ever since my polytechnic days.

Basically, I need working experience, which is why I am working now. However, if graduates started working in an industry which have no help in their future career path, why stay at that job? Just to fill your stomach?

I know this might not sound like so much of a sense to everyone, but to dreadfully work for money is absolutely terrible compared to working because it is your passion.

Go figure. By the time you hit your thirties or forties or fifties, you'll know. You will know you do not have much time to waste your life away doing something you dread. You will want to pursue the things which you do not wish to regret if you did not pursue.

Which is why, midlife crisis exist.
