A New Beginning (Again)

After 3 weeks, countless applications sent, updated resumes and profiles from monster.com.sg, jobstreet.com.sg, jobsdb.com.sg to name a few then the phone interviews and exactly 7 personal interviews later I'm finally going back to work. I will be working as an in house web designer for a mid size company here in Singapore. I'm very grateful for the opportunity and I don't need to extend my visit pass or make an exit. This will be a new challenge for me and I know that it's not going to be easy, but I live for this kind of stuff, I worked for Royal Caribbean Intl. for 5 years as a deck hand, went back to school and after 4 years got a bachelors degree, got hired by Iwebmasters became a project manager for one of their accounts and now I'm in a foreign country starting over again.

From my experience I could self proclaim that I am the epitome of that line that goes "It's never to late to start over". But I guess it's because being trapped in a dead end career scares me more, being in a place just because you've stayed too long and you can never be anywhere else, do something different, reinvent yourself again and again. But starting over and over is not for everyone, there are those lucky few that finds their calling on the first try I used to envy those types of people until I realized that life has a lot to offer and that I'm here to try as much of what it can give me, expecting the worst but always hoping for the best.

I'm both excited and scared of this move, I'm looking forward to new possibilities and scared shitless of the unknown but one thing is certain I wouldn't have it any other way. Remember that scene from "Pulp Fiction" between Jules and Vincent, when Jules was thinking about retiring from being a hitman?

Jules: I'll just walk the earth.
Vincent: What'cha mean walk the earth?
Jules: You know, walk the earth, meet people... get into adventures. Like Caine from "Kung Fu."

I'm walking the earth, kind of in between retirement and questing for whatever is still out there, making an adventure of an ordinary day, a regular job in a new place with a very different cultural background. So ladies and gents I would like to welcome you all to "A New Beginning".

Wolverine - Origins Trailer

2009 will bring us Wolverine - Origins, the story of the X-Men baddass, how it all began for this troubled hero. And why he is always in a foul mood. One of my top 5 favorite comic super heroes along with Batman, Spiderman, Flash and Iron Man... And my top favorite mutant, "Adamantium Claws Pops Out" cashingg...

Born in 19th century Canada to rich plantation owners, James Howlett grows into manhood on a mining colony in Northern Alberta, adopting the name "Logan", which is the last name of the plantation groundskeeper, Thomas Logan and his son Dog. Logan leaves the colony and lives for a time in the wilderness among wolves, until returning to civilization, residing with the Blackfoot Indians. Following the death of his Blackfoot paramour, Silver Fox, he is ushered into a Canadian military unit. Logan then spends some time in Madripoor, developing his "Patch" persona; before settling in Japan, where he marries and has a son. Source: Wikipedia.com

A beautiful mind and a restless soul...

Serendipity brought you to me, I've never felt so lucky before our paths crossed
I wasn't even looking, yet there you were and I was never the same after
Like rain to end a drought you drenched me with a feeling of being whole,
giving me wings to soar, and explore the life that I thought was already complete.

You think too much and it drives you and the people around you insane
yet I find it interesting how you contradict everything, even your own thoughts.
But on a good day you overwhelm me with your generosity and your understanding,
you spread happiness like a rash and your smile can slow down time to a halt.

When you dream you dream big and I look forward to every adventure that I let you
drag me in to, even when your dreams make my life a nightmare there's no place I'd rather be.
You give me strength to be a better person, and you're the only one who can make a monster
out of me, but without you there wouldn't be any reason for me to feel happiness or sadness.

You are the one, my dearest one, the last piece of my puzzle,
you are my thorn as well as my crown, you can't have one without the other.
you cause unimaginable pain, and the most glorious experience I've ever known
I will always love your beautiful mind... and take long walks with your restless soul...
