I took some time today in the morning to head down to Starbucks for breakfast... Manosh said it was good and I had to try and I'm glad I did cos it's to die for and inexpensive as well... money worth spent...
With a cup of tea in my hand and my 'trusty' hp, i sat outside at the balcony for a while... looking at the ever familiar environment, the roads, cars and the beautiful trees outside the balcony... it reminded me of the days when i was in uni, mugging for exams, I remember plonking myself on one of the seats from the time they opened their doors till they close... I remember the quiet mornings on weekdays and only expat ladies sat on the same level as me... they were chatting away while their kids ran around the area... I remember I asked myself, if I would become like them... get married, have kids and sometimes meet friends for breakfast... at that point, i really just wanted to be a homemaker and wait for the husband to be home from his hard day at work...
Fast forward till now, I hardly can foresee myself getting married, although I still wish to settle down... but with my own career starting to take flight, it will be difficult to tell myself to give up everything and be a homemaker... unless I love the man way too much to do that... but the possibility is rather small... those carefree days are gone and now taking a break is a luxury... last time, going for drinks meant a cold soft drink or ice cream at the nearby fast food joint... now, it meant pints of beer, alcoholic drinks, mixers, shots etc... speaking of which, i havent had a drink for a long time... I like to go for a nice slow drink at one of the pubs at HV and people watch... havent done that for a while... I wish to do that soon...

well I been there. After graduation was offered a job in one of Australia advertising top agency. Didn't take it and marry the man I love in 3 mths time after coming back to sg.. Prob be a highflyer if I take the job but life would be meaningless without him. And he is definitely worth that. Career could be in many forms but there is only one heart =)
