Ahh... I am finally back in familiar territory after such a long hiatus.
And with good reason too.
The last post I tried publishing by clicking the "publish post" button just couldn't be published. It was as if the button wasn't working any longer.
I decided to wait till the next day to try again. And the same thing happened: the button couldn't work.
I waited yet another day, and another, and another. And still my post couldn't be published. After awhile I decided to give up.
And so my blog was left hanging in limbo. The months passed. I checked back now and then, viewing its simple facade without logging in.
Until just recently I decided to tackle the problem. I "googled" the problem - as I'm sure anyone would've done - and there were so many solutions I could try to see if the problem could be solved.
My eyes fell quickly on one of them. It was about some compatibility button at the end of the address bar; someone said all he had to do was click on it and the problem was solved.
I did exactly that.
Four months have passed now. I'm about to complete my course and looking for a job at the moment.
Ironic, huh? Everyone's talking about escaping the rat race. And look what I'm doing? Eagerly getting myself into it.
I guess it arises out of a sense of security... a sense of wanting to be self-reliant. I mean, for a person my age, I can't go talking about escaping the rat race when I haven't even started earning my first proper paycheck, right?
Perhaps I need to experience the rat race for myself... its highs and lows. And see if it's really all that bad... is there really no end to it? A vicious cycle? Or if there's really no escaping it? Once you're in, you can't get out?
Or... what if I took a different path from the very start? The path less travelled. Do something totally different - the unconventional route. I can only imagine eyebrows raised... or are they frowning?
Ah well... I wonder what my next step will be. What new chapter is in store for me. In times like these I really wish I could predict the future...
