Aspirations and Dreams.

When we were little, our teacher asked us what we wanted to be.

"Doctor, Scientist, Nurse, Teacher, Lawyer, Police"
We all answered.


Now life has gone so far, our dreams changed time and time again.
Some of them have found their true self, yet some are still searching.

For the people who finally knew what to choose from in life,

How many times have others tried to drill into your head what you should be?
How many times they tell you which was better paying and which was not?
How many times your heart took their advice, which was actually their own dreams?
And how many times have you truly listened to what you really wanted.

Ironically, yet, how many really got what they wanted?

Every year is going to get tougher by the steps we take.
Every breathe will be taken deeper each day.
Soon you'll see yourself panting with exhaustion,
Soon you'll see yourself escaping the pain of sweat.

Enough of senseless talk.
I already knew what i wanted.
No one is going to change it.
Im going into write and speech.

School on Friday was good,
the most relaxing lesson of enterprise module.
We did our resume and ta-dah, we're done with the day.
I went to perm my hair after school because i was not in the right mind.

It was hideous. Sigh. Now i deeply regret and i hope i could ctrl-z.
S says it was okay, but seriously??? No it is not.

And we both know it.

This post is dedicated to my cousin, the cousin that is my role model. (I wrote it on a letter, but i never had a chance to give it to her because she was so busy and i think she might just scream at me anytime...) Dear ZZ jie , When you walked down the aisle, i cant help but to feel that every inch of my body was filled with joy and deeply inside me, i pray that you will be happy throughout your life. Special people like you and the people in your family like Cat jie , Da yi , and uncle are people who i am willing to give up 20 years of my life for just to see each of you healthy and happy. You guys are just that special to me. Maybe I'm not the type that can portray my feelings through my actions, but i sincerely mean what i say. You have a huge impact on my life. I am not too sure what the reason was, perhaps it was because i had once stayed with you. But yes, during the process of growing up, i learnt alot from you. I learnt that you cannot let anyone bring you down, you hav

Never enough.

Its the big twos. Its the big twos. They always say that teen hood passes like flowers wither, the fun curled up into space and it is when people start leaving your door. There are somethings we dont look back, not because our hearts tell us not to, but we choose not. Prevention of an heartache is better than the pain of a memory. Much less or so we humans tend to peep at our sorry past just to make ourselves feel more miserable than we can ever thought we might feel. You'll be surprised how you're still affected even though you thought you wont feel this way. Likewise, people know they are going to feel that way if they break their own determination but they still go along with it. Its like, people cannot be too happy at once. Humans will then look for something to be unhappy about, to make life seem like...life. In life, shit happens. But we seem to appreciate it somehow.
