Lesson on Life. Maybe.

Hey people~
I think I'm either too busy to blog or I just lost interest in blogging. That'll explain my absence in the 'blogging scene'. (If there's even a blogging scene in the first place).
So... what's up in life?

Frustration- 'Cause there's only a few things in life that I want and sadly, the most important one seems really unattainable right now. Point is- I'm not getting any younger. I'm almost 20/21 this year. Into adulthood and it makes me wonder what the hell have I been doing with my existence, apart from studies. (And my grades aren't all that fantastic too)

Frustration 'cause what I want is not encourage by my parents (I haven't asked but I know the answer) and because I'm living in SG. Where...everything just seem so... you know, the usual stuff. Everyone here just wants to earn enough for a living, more for luxury, pay off debts for their cars and houses and basically just live to work in their sucky jobs for the rest of their lives. I do not want that. I mean, I do know I will work for the rest of my life, which I also plan to do so until my children says "Mommy, I think that's enough. You should sit back and chill". Yeah. It's just that... work is stressful in SG and more people start to work for the sake of it (or more obviously, for the money). Is anyone really happy with their jobs?

Well, yes and no. Yes, when you meet awesome people and enjoy the relaxing days where work is smooth. No, when work piles up and you just curse and swear and wonder why the hell did you even apply for the job. There're times like this for everyone- but bottom line is- if you really like your job, hell man, throw me the most difficult task ever, I'll be happy to conquer it for you. That's what I'm looking for. I can pull nighters, I can dedicate my whole life to it. It's fine. As long as I'm happy, you try and stop me.

But... sadly... what I want isn't in SG and I seriously wonder when my parents will let go of  the leash on me. Problems with parents nowadays- they protect their children too much. They care too much. They expect too much. I thought being happy is the most important thing. You wanna die a happy person rather than regret that you didn't laugh enough on your death bed right? I'm sure no one wants that. Quoting from a movie or a video- when children were born, parents were thrilled, naming it the moment of their lives when their child starts walking and blabbering in an attempt to speak. Then, walking isn't enough, they should learn how to run. Oh, blabbering is bad now, you should learn to think before in a cultivated manner. And also, running isn't good enough, you should be the fastest runner in your school. By the way, being polite is overrated already, learn to speak with facts and dignity. You're the fastest in your school? Good, now aim for your country. Oh, your neighbour uses more vocabulary than you, you should go read a dictionary. You're the fastest in your country? Shame on you, kids your age are already in the Olympics. If there ever an end to it? NO.

You can probably see how greedy people are. I don't deny it. If I have a kid, they're certainly going to be the best. But is that what your kid wants? Some parents force their kids into studying certain majors, some choose schools for your kids. Seriously, do they want to be in there at all? You want to know why some people end up as bums or achieve nothing in life when their lives are already planned out for them? Exactly my point- their lives are already planned out. Do they want to be in a business major? Do they like the school? Do they even have any interest in the program? They have no personal goals, no say in anything, it makes them lose a battle before it started and that's sad. They don't have will. It's just... pretty sad. Really. To those that fights back, good for you. Keep going. ('Caue I'm going to do just that)

I think I'm going to get too naggy in this one, so I'll stop.
My point is- Are you happy? Do you want to be controlled for your whole life? Do you have plans for your own future? If your answers are all positive, then start rebelling and stop hiding. Hiding gets you nowhere.

(Honestly, all I need now is just a mere reply of an email... Two weeks has passed. Another four to wait for).
