Wednesday

Thoughts on a rainy day.

I've been thinking of probable job prospects, and below listed is not arranged in any order of preference.

1) A interior decorator, helping people set up their homes to their taste.
Personally I feel this is truly a saturated market, decorators, people who claimed to be "interior designers" are just located -a few- every heartland, suburban mall away. They ask you what you want, and "does it your way". Design? There is no true design to speak of, only functionality and aesthetically pleasing to the owner's eyes. While I like to think that I have the passion for interior decor but everything's better if its for pleasure no?

2) An architect, interior architect;
or someone who just takes care of everything needed to build a house, a home, a building, yada yada.
Well, the chances are quite slim since I'm someone lack of flair for sciences, mathematics, engineering and all that boring stuffs needed for calculations to keep people safe. Unless I meet someone who can take care of that for me, I'd jump into it any given opportunity.

3) A boss of a label that involves some very carefully curated goods.
Its kinda my dream actually, to curate, or even create some highly sought after "un-necessities". To sell things that people want though they may not truly need. And this "philosophy" is very me. I like to buy unncessary items.  But this can only happen when I am suddenly fucking wealthy and just happened to have A LOT of spare money to gamble/play with.

It can even extend out to overlap any realms. A space for food, for curating, for lifestyle, for everything. It would be a dream to be able to live my life with only the best of things, and not settling for anything that doesn't have quality, pleasing aesthetics, and not pleasing to my eye. Haha.

But just one single problem: Commerce is the bane of me. I'm never shrewd with money. It's a flaw, that will kill me. 

4) A critic.
Why not? I love criticism. And I want to be a critic of everything. I can do a critic on a restaurant: the branding, the food, the service, the decor, the uniform, the space design. I can critic about your work: How you present, the font, the content, and even to the extent of your language and vocabulary, and spotting some double spaces hiding in between paragraphs of your report. You are welcome. 

So if this comes true my namecard will have Shermaine Chang, Critic. Call me if you need some criticising ;)

5) A job that deals with English, Chinese, Cantonese, Japanese and Italian language specifically.
What? Well, I know them, I should use them right? 

6) A job that I'll be happy about.
I'm serious. I don't really know what I really want - my close friends are really sick of my dilemma hahahaa. But I really hope that whatever I'm going to do I'll be happy about it.


But once in a while you would wish you don't have to work, right?
