State of Things

I’ve been offered a job. I should be feeling ecstatic, having been unemployed for the past four months, but I’m feeling just happy. It’s a great opportunity to learn something new, and to further my career. Heh, that sounds typical of me, giving an opinion that does not add value. Just have the CFA exam digging into my mind at the moment and sticking my face in front of a textbook isn’t my ideal way of spending time. It’s a marathon process, getting all that information into my brain and understanding it.

Was looking through this website and it’s been 4 years since I started dabbling in it. It’s like a sequential reel of my life, from the simpler posts at the beginning to the vague ones as well as the current descriptive ones of life. The posts are useful as a flashback and snap of what was happening at the time, although there’s no useful way to index and search through what I’ve written. It’s very much a random heap of words and my state of mind has evolved plenty over the last few years.

I’m a little perplexed by the current world situation, and it seems to deteriorate even more day by day. The world’s financial crisis, the dire state of world climates, the depletion of oil and our addiction to it, democracy versus dictatorships and the change of political power throughout the world. It feels like one day I will wake up and not recognise what the world has become. The world is changing and the thought of that is terrifying.

Heh, then again, I don’t have to lift the whole world’s problems on my shoulders. I will just try my best and start being positive again. I feel more comfortable in my own skin that way.
