Path less beaten

Lunch with some friends today.. Chatted.. Abt my plans in the coming future, among other stuffs.. One suggested looking for collaboration between possibly SMART and GSK (can't rem if she said NUS too), does sound like a feasibly good idea, until she mention that it offers stability too..

Not that it became a bad idea, but it just caught me.. Yes having a family of my own, one of the desirable goal I should haf, is indeed being stable.. But in fact it was one of the things which I purposely put at the back of my mind.. For I know that if stability is to be a primary concern, I'll not be able to take big steps.. Selfish? Perhaps, but I've got a supportive wife.. And 2 kids who're right now too young to grumble.. It's really now or NEVER..

For someone who decided to join ODAC after 8 years of badminton / band / table-tennis... One who chose to be the pioneer bio student in NTU over NUS to study life science.. One who went to take BioSciences in the Uni without an 'A'-level in Biology.. One who went into the unknown territory of doing fyp in a commercial lab while everyone else stayed with the academia.. One who applied for an apartment while he was still spending his parents' money in his education.. One who's going to abandoned his kids to go for a 2-weeks trekking expedition in Nepal with his wife.... Mayb stability is really one of the last thing in his mind....

I think I'll still like to take a shot.


Janielle is such a brilliant poseur for the camera now!! But beware she's actually a monster disguised as a cute little angel...!!
