The Quarter Life Crisis
Passing the '25' mark this year finally brought this upon me or should I say making the choice myself. During the past 5 years or so, career is about realizing my dreams and passion, at the same time making money and to support myself.
There weren't much options available though as the market is quite narrow at the place I call home. Leaving for overseas has always been in my mind but never got the courage to do so. I gueng.
This few years, I've changed several jobs. Nothing seems to feel right. All types of unexpected scenarios happened. Of course, life is full of surprises so eventually i got through it. BUT at the same time, something has lost. Being a designer, what I think is essential for my job is passion and I'm losing it. Our work, most of the time are not being appreciated, taken advantage of and not under our control. What I produce is not mine anymore.
I have become a working robot and the only thing that comforts me in the end is money. The problem is if I don't love my job, I can't go on. Money is important but it is not my life's priority.
Crisis or 'time to rethink my life' comes in. It won't be easy to figure what to do next. Lots of experimenting and might be lots of failure too. One thing that I will constantly remind myself, Don't worry be Happy! - to all mid 20's out there who are facing our quarter life crisis.ss all is about timi
