If I could do something spontaneously, I swear I would. There are so many restrictions that bind us to social norms. Conformity is a major trait of our education system, which I feel, most honestly, should never have been advocated. Sometimes all we need is really some creative juices and out-of-the-box thinking. But then again, there wouldn't be an "out-of-the-box" region if there was no box to begin with. How ironic.
Singapore promulgates a proficient education system that produces an efficient and skilled workforce, but we have also been criticised for our rigidity. At some point in time I've come to realise that if you have a dream this is not the place for you. This is a workplace. The lounge is somewhere else. Of course we try to boast the seemingly entertaining tourist attractions, and it must seem like a nice place to take a chill pill, but all these seem like an illusion to me. Maybe it's just me, or maybe I'm getting tired of this place, or maybe I'm getting boring; whatever it is, I need to scoot off to some foreign destination alone and take this time to make some adjustments to myself.
Because, apparently, time and work has made me a non-compassionate drone.
