(On my 2nd SIN-JFK trip in 2 weeks. Almost exhausted all the shows on krisworld and am exploring music albums. Figured I'll just take time to jot some thoughts.)

We're into the 3rd month of 2012 and I have not kept to my resolution of returning to my blog-writing. Time is the essence but not a luxury I have been having.

What have I been busy with, my friends ask? Honestly, I find that question very hard to answer. Work is my usual response. I spend most of my time in office running around for meetings, answering queries from people and fixing others' problems. (The pain of middle management.) Most of my evenings are either spent clearing work or just lazing around with Jon in front of the telly.

While I still have a social life, it's been much less than what I would prefer. I keep thinking of re-connecting with friends I haven't seen in a while, but I procrastinate. Am glad that I managed to catch up with my old school friends last month (after a whole month of planning) and got a few dates locked in with other jetsetter friends.

In a flash, 2 years of my life have been left unrecorded. My life in NUS was so fast-paced and full of fire-fighting daily that it took everything out of me.

Now 1 year into my current workplace, I am glad that I have reclaimed my weekends and there are weeknights that if I don't do any work, I don't feel guilty at all. Talk about regaining my life back!

But then, why am I still busy with work? I am in such an oxymoron dilemma.

This question is left to be answered.
