Is it ok to be confused and not sure about what you want in life?

Coz it's exactly how I've been feeling recently.

Been toying with the idea of getting another job. Been thinking that I can achieve much more than what I am doing now. I did quite well in school, and I am doing so much more than my colleagues right now. Is being a teacher or facilitator or academics or whatever you call this job all I can do? Or is there more I can achieve?

Alright, no doubt I'm given quite a fair bit of opportunities here - module chair for the biggest module last semester with 76 classes and 30 over staff. After all these, I just have this "been there, done that" feeling. So, what's next?

Many people would be satisfied with what I have, but somehow I'm just not satisfied. There is always this "what if" thought in my mind - What if I am in private sector? What if I get a more challenging job out there?

But then again, other than this rather unreasonable reason, I don't really see a need to leave my current job (except that once in a while I don't know what the hell my bosses want). Should I just be contented? And wait for my pay increment every year?

OK... I'm just confused...

Back from Tioman...

Alright, I'm back since a week ago.. but just too lazy to blog...

Was an ok trip... only ok because:

(1) Was way too tired.. gotta rush all the Board of Examiners papers out before I go.. was completely drained.. wished I could just stay in the room and sleep all days but cannot.. so didn't really enjoy the dives too..

(2) There was only one word to discribe the visibility - bad.

(3) After 24 years, I finally realise that I'm THIS afraid of darkness... went for a night dive and once I went down I was quite freaked out... so during the whole dive I was scolding bad words in my heart... am going to declare this night dive as my first and last one...

OK now here's one of the very few can make it photo I took underwater... Even then it's still a bit blur...
