TIME SLIPS AWAY.

Whoopdeedoo.

In record time the past year has flown by with the start of the 2014 just a day away.
I guess its really true what people say, about how time goes by faster as we age, especially with the increasingly fast-paced way of life we all lead today.

I've never really been on the whole 'New Year Resolutions' bandwagon, but seeing as how i'm at a point in my life where every year could be vastly different, I need to start thinking about what I'll be doing for the next 365 days of my life and how my decisions could very well affect the rest of my life.

So in 2013,

I graduated.
I got an internship.
I made new friends.
I danced.
I sang.
I performed.
I travelled.
I basically did what I love, with the people I love...

But that's pretty much it. Life stopped there.

I'm stuck at a stage I like to call the 'Adolescent Crisis', the youth equivalent to a mid-life crisis where your life feels like its on a path to nowhere-ville.
Thing is, you wanna do something about it but don't know how to go about doing it or where to start.
Honestly, based on what i've been seeing, this is a problem 90% of the people my age face. (while the other 10% probably have had their entire life planned out since they were 5 or so. A > B > C > Success in life)

I for one have held on for dear life to an ambition, to do what i love and love what i do. And that in its entirety is Music and the industry that surrounds it. Not exactly the typical career one would aim for where i live just due to the fact that the industry is still pretty damn bleak. Also considering how i'm not exactly the most talented or experienced person in this field.

But even so, I've always believed in at least giving my all to reach my goals, regardless of whether i end up succeeding exceptionally or failing terribly. Hey, at least i can say i have no regrets and that i've given it my best shot. In the end, YOLO(yes terribly overused but so appropriate), I don't want to look back one day when I'm in my seventies and think of my life as a mundane waste of time and space. I do not want to simply exist. I want to LIVE, with the blood flowing in my veins and passion overwhelming my being.

So In 2014, I will be going on a journey. Alone. One that could be filled with fear, insecurity, loneliness and a multitude of difficulties. But I am willing to push through with the hopes of seeing the rainbow at the end of the road. No wait, scratch that. I want a double rainbow.

All i need right now is just to build a little more courage and reach out for what i really want.

TWENTYFOURTEEN, READY OR NOT, HERE I COME.

AND SO IT BEGINS.

Hey there!

Here's a little introduction post for my little diary on the inter webs.
I was born in '93 on a sunny asian island surrounded by the sea.

I'm a sucker for pretty things, yummy things and musical things, which are things that will be making up the bulk of my blog.

So it took quite a while for me to actually decide to get back into blogging again. Being the ultimate laze-ball,  i probably already have a handful of unidentifiable and embarrassing blogs floating around the net archives from way back when. This time i'm keeping my fingers crossed in hopes of actually keeping one of these thingamajigs alive for a considerable amount of time.

Why am i even starting this, you ask? After months of blog hopping and with the encouragement of the lovely chinaphilidoll, the boredom from the end of an uneventful gap year materialised into 'deathbygomi'.


So with this,  i shall embark on the journey with my eyes closed and hope for the best.
