time flies. it just seemed like only last week when i first stepped into poly and now, i'm a student all (supposedly) geared up for the coming final year exams. everything passed by like a blur. and im getting old; gonna hit the big 2-0 this year. it sounds to scary to be real. haha. but seriously, what are the plans for the next 5 years of my life?
life is meaningful, but short. so we really should treasure every hour, minute and second we have. i want to do something that makes me feel that it's really something i wanted to do, and am proud of.
i guess, for now, studies definitely come first. do well for this last lap of exms, and get satisfactory results. after all that, maybe qualify for a local U and pursue a degree in finance - but i've to admit - i dont quite know why i want a degree but it does seem like everyone needs a paper qualificaiton in this world.
i may however, not become a financial adviser despite my degree. maybe i'd like to take a lil break from the stress of the world and travel. with my "closet" passion for drawing, i guess i might wanna be a travelling artist for awhile. and maybe devote some time to teach the poor lil kids there. so i'll be a part-time teacher cum artist. heh. hopefully i'll be able to make their learning journey an enjoyable one. while many are sooo into the whole rat race, i feel that one shouldnt just get a job that gives you a big fat pay check. as long as it is a respectable one, and it's something you've always wanted, why not go for it?
5 years down i'll be 25. hehz. definitely no plans on getting married cos i dont see a need to. and definitely no children. let's face it - children are only cute when they are less than 3 years old. just look at SuperNanny on TV, all those kids are like miniature versions of Wayne Rooney. rowdy, rude, boisterous, bratty and maybe even murderous - the supernany trailer keeps showing this sweet faced but mean lil girl who screamed, "i could just KILL YOUUUUU!" as she slammed her palms down on the carpet. woah woah woah. so not cute huh?
hah. anyways, i do have many many other vague plans, all boiling crazily in my head. (not gonna mention them here.) and some might say they are just plain wishful thinking. my mum does worry for me as i usually dont have "solid plans" or am not practical. she calls me a dreamer, with my head in the clouds. but shouldnt you believe in yourself and your dreams, for they might just turn out the way you plannned some day. *shrugs*
