something unusual celebrating life @ 25!!!
Wheew.. I am already 25.. Before, i always think what should i do something unusual when I reached the age of 25.. something extra-ordinary and challenging.. one of my friend suggests that i should try sky diving, but unfortunately none here in Vanuatu, so what I just did is try the.... PARASAILING!!!
What a feeling!?! It feels that I am flying in the sky.. great sense of relaxation.. great view from the top to see the whole city of Port Vila.. great beach.. great scene.. great experience.. below are some of my pics during parasailing :)
Life turns to silver year..
A month ago, I had a countdown in my friendster for my silver year anniversary.. the first day i posted the countdown, it's still 31 days to come.. days passed.. and yesterday ended my countdown and celebrate life in silver year.. keep thinking to myself what should i do during my silver year?!?..
Way back in my college years, I always looked up life at 25.. It's because for me at this stage, life must be somehow stable and with a sense of completion for myself and for my family..
When I graduated my Bachelor's Degree by the age of 20, it feels somehow im partially fulfilled.. but still looking for the next phase, "the Board Exam".. after taking the board exam, what a sense of relief looking at your name in the newspaper that you passed the board exam and be with the other board passers taking the oath at the age of 21..
But life must not end in passing the board exam neither being failed, one must look on how can you support for yourself and for your family.. Luckily after the board exam, i easily landed a job by the age of 21 still and i am so happy that time that first time in my life i am being paid for my effort.. having my own money.. giving some to my family.. spending things for myself out of my own pocket.. and most of all not being dependent anymore in my parents..
As they say, life's contentment is really hard to find.. less than a month i did resigned and transfer to a different company.. new environment.. new found friends.. and so the cycle continue, after 3 months i resigned again and grabbed the opportunity to work with a prominent company at Globe Telecom..
In this company, somehow i learned how to appreciate life at its best.. I never know that the real journey of my life starts here in achieving the fulfillment I needed by the age of 25..
When I was promoted by the age of 23 as a Senior RF Engineer, that time I told to myself.. I have already that "something" that I can be proud of .. and so much happiness coz I have a lead time of 2 years more and already hit that 'big thing'..
But life is so good to be true.. still so many good things came up.. by the age of 24.. I was able to work overseas which I never dreamt at this early.. celebrating my silver year away from home, family, and great friends really makes me sick.. it's my first time to celebrate my birthday without my loved ones.. but still I am so happy that my dear family and friends still remember me on my very special day.. when i opened my inbox today since I was leave yesterday, BOOM!!! 110 messages full of greetings.. from yahoo to outlook to friendster.. :) I feel that I am really blessed and has the reason to make my life very happy and contented in celebrating my silver year..
