Imagine this scenario;
A normal guy born in a normal city, where he goes to a normal school where he have awesome friends (still those same idiots until now) and nostalgic childhood. He often pressed by parents and relatives alike to study hard, so he choose a sort of nerdy life to study. His grades are good enough to make himself proud, but not good enough to top in the school. After graduating Form 5, he choose a simple part time jobs while having awesome moments with his friends (yes, those idiots). He didn't know which path he wanted to choose after Form 5, and his parents are not rich enough to sponsor him to go overseas. So he settle for Form 6 science stream. After Form 6, the grades are good enough to enrol in an university. After three years of roller coaster experience, he finally graduates with good grades. However, he still don't know where he really wants in life. Although he actually knows, but peer and parents pressure force him to go down a road where he might not want, but knowing it can guarantee good financial assistance and more so in future. Facing with the sudden transition from comfort study life to a harsh working reality, he often wonder if all the results of his hard work will pay off some day.
Does it sounds familiar? I might not know but I often heard of such woes from friends and fresh graduates who just started working. The uncertainty whether this is life they really wants for many years to come. The sudden realization that they can't do travelling or other things they wanted to do because they will be busy working and wanted rest more than anything at the end of the day. They wanted to do something big, but there are a lot of restrictions in their life. They want to look forward to their job, but somehow they cannot find the passion and motivation to fuel their energy to work when they wake up every morning.
The dilemma that hitting most fresh graduates, including me, brings a great transition from a kid to an adult.
Facing with so many challenges and obstacles from a job, we often wonder is it good to wonder back to the comfort zone or to embrace it so that you emerge stronger?
Moreover, it's not the job itself that are difficult but the people you are dealing with. You often heard about office politics and how scary it is. But you only knew its true terror when you experienced it.
From the start, we often taught how passion is a main tool to find what you want to do for the rest of your life. Turn your passion to your job, and you won't feel stressed, unhappy or complain about it. But since there are so many restrictions, how many people can really do that?
It's not impossible but it just difficult. If there is one thing I learn from working in society is there are always opportunities everywhere. You just have to keep looking. People always claim there are a lot of injustice in their life but I don't think it's true.
Life is fair. There will be a time where there are opportunities and you just need to make the right choice and take the leap. Your life might sucks now, but it won't last forever.
A Simple Life
Life is never too Short to do Anything.

A Fresh Start.
Hi!
It's been a long time that I start writing a blog again.Yes, I did have a blog long time ago but I deleted it because it's had been inactive for a long time. Somehow, it posted silly things at time which I believe people won't really go read it(Is it?). But I am back on writing blog again.
As a university student, people will say my life will lead a hectic life due to assignments, tests, exams and a lot more curriculum activities. Despite that, I still start a blog.
Why? It's as simple as why people still writing blogs these days. I believe a blog is a place to express your thoughts and feelings when you just don't know where to pour them out.
You may find a friend and express your views, but they might have other troubles to attend to in their life.
So, a blog can be very useful for this kind of situation. Moreover, a blog is extremely useful when you want to practice your presentation skills(of course, the way you present your view in a post!) and your English(My English is not that bad in this post,right?).

Oh!Where are my manners?I haven't introduce myself properly(I think I even haven't introduce myself). My name is Toon Chi Hong, people usually call me Toon. I am currently a 22 years old Malaysian who works as a University Student(one of very few No-Income jobs) and still single(Girls,please note that!Hahaha). I am majoring in Environmental Technology( saving the world,huh?) and minoring in Management.

To kick off to this fresh start, I will blog about blogging.Well, I just don't know what to present in the first post. A few years ago, I was inclined to start blogging because I saw my friends do so and I thought 'Hey, this could be fun!'.But who knows my blog had been inactive and I myself also won't visit my blog.
Now, this trend still ongoing but I didn't see much anymore in my friends(maybe the new friends I meet didn't tell me they blog too?). Nevertheless, I enjoy reading blogs because it's like an online diary. You can know a person through a blog. You can be able to know how is his/her day today, what's her opinion on some issues, etc. I just wish that through my blogging, people can be able to know me more considering I am kinda introvert and rarely express my feelings and thoughts well.
That's all for today,folks!.Hope you enjoy my post!
