I was reading a blog when i came across him writing this. He was a fresh graduate from NUS who is working in T3 now. I followed his blog when i was applying CAAS honours year scholarship.

2008 to him was a transition.

"Student to working adult.
Good economy to worsening economy.
Innocence (relative haha) to harsh reality.
High fitness to crap fitness.
Singlehood to relationship."

I think what he had went through will definitely be a carbon copy for many of us, who are gonna embark on our first job soon. Going forward,I believe that being a student is good cos from 8 to5 we are slack, but after 5 is otherwise. Whereas a normal working adult ploughes hard for 8 hrs everyday and lets his hair down for the rest of the night. I believe its a vast change in lifestyle and I definitely hope to curb the bad habit of staying up late.

Good economy to worsening economy. I believe it really depends on the industries we are in. The aviation industry is definitely seeing some decline for the next few years.Cos when the national carrier sees red, the repercussions are huge. Its quite like a supply chain where SIA supplies repair works to the MRO industry. To be honest, we hinge so much on SIA for the MRO side..so we ve better hope SIA comes up with some good cost cutting measures to save itself from the economic tidal wave. For one, if A380 cant get enough customers, open it up for gallery and visiting purposes and charge a nominal fee per entry.hahaha. definitely sells.

Innonence to harsh reality. Time will tell. I m not sure but i think one thing for sure is office politics is definitely in existence, and comes in all shapes and sizes literally. So i shall once again bring out that dusty working principle of mine way back during army times. For one, i think act blur live longer will work. And the other, act busy look interested but dun get involved is another.haha

Fitness wise, it has been crappy since yr 1. How worse can it get. I managed to pull only 4 times on the pull-up bar recently. i think i did 4 times as many during in service. Cool..fitness is defined as a transitional period of phsyical wellness, in which the major contributing factors are discipline and more discipline.

Relationship wise, i am sure every new phase is another new challenge. Either we face it and overcome it or we shun and fail it. So, to my lovely dear, we are gonna overcome the hardship and difficult times together. Rest assured I will channel and expend all my energy on my work while you are away. Life for us have turned for a better and i m sure it will be a exponential increase. Woohoox.
