Holiday - something I've not kept in touch

I was just having a chat when something struck me... When was the last time I went on a holiday specifically for fun? Its kind of a weird question because most of us would just plan for a holiday trip somewhere over the weekends (especially when you are working). Thinking of which Amy, Tammy and Ayumi was really "on" thinking that they came over to Singapore for a slightly long weekend.

Anyway, looking back the days after I came to Singapore (hah! now you know I'm an immigrant) I think I have not really went on any holidays - don't consider those days where you go back for Chinese New Year and special family event (weddings and funerals). These days are just plain sitting around at home, watching TV and sleep. And I do always ask myself - are you tired from all these continuous working? You know, at times I do feel like life itself is a bore, not much going on. Then comes the next question (this will entirely contradict whatever said... or typed) - so what do you get after going on this so called "holiday"? //gasps of horror//

Looking from another point of view, maybe I'm a little workaholic? OK, I admit I am rather workaholic. But that's negative, so lets look at it in a positive manner - passionate about my work. How does that sound? There is always this feeling of unable to put down the work and, well do something else.

Or rather am I looking for something more adventurous? This does sound very much like an excuse but, yeah if the itinerary is too relaxing then it wouldn't be attractive enough. Don't you think so? Then the group of "adventurers" are also a question. How am I going to find such a bunch that would find tiring and sweating out themselves on a journey - fun? Ask, right? Easier said than done.

So I think I shall conclude that it is not a matter of not being able to go for a holiday but rather being "passionate about my work" and plain procrastinating on what kind of a holiday / vacation to go ends up like what it is now. Oh yeah... money is another matter to look into. I guess I really do have a very valid obstacle (this word is really too strong, but can't think of any at the moment) for not going on a holiday. And guess what I have 2.5 days of leave awaiting expiry in June and another 14 days leave expiring in December - non convertible and can't be carried forward.

I wrote crap.. did I?
