As my period of joblessness carries on, 

I feel myself falling further away from my one true goal.

Coming back to Singapore was more of practicality than want.

And though I did sense opportunities abound, 

things are definitely not as cheery as I thought they would be.

Maybe I should go out on a limb and do the brave thing.

Maybe I should apply for an internship with a regional NGO.

And hope that it might lead to something concrete.

Something that would allow me to accomplish my long-term objective.

Haven't felt this lost in a long time.

Think I need some time alone.

On a deserted island.

In the Pacific.
