Finally..
I havent gotten my com repaired. i havent blog my story. i havent decided what i shld do in life. i wonder how NS is like? what my future would be? Whether i'll get married? Will i be rich? Will i be poor? My spiritual faith, where would i be? Would i stay strong and face life with positivity or would i just lose hope and quit holding on? Eliminating the possibilities, i find it funny. mayb thats how life throw lemons at you. hhaha..
At age 18, u feel mature. feel like an adult. wasnt it all our childhood dream to grow up one day and make decisions for ourself? look at it now, i rather be young. i rather stay young. having been in the working world, its alot different from what u're taught in sch and textbook. all that u study in ur textbook teach nothing abt preparing u for work life. it gives knowledge but lack the essence of survival in the working world.
the once innocent me to ignore my parents decision, making decision on my own self is gone. when u're a teen, u probably think ur parents are restricting u from almost everything. buy hey, they just dont want you to suffer. but we still go ahead with it. now me almost being an young adult, u face lots of things. imagine once reaching 21, u have to start deciding on ur own. u have to make plans for ur future. u cant rely on ur parents and say, 'pocket money please'. u would have grown outta it.
and thats not all, in SG we talk abt qualifications. without it, u'll probably be fighting over a cleaner's job. i know it sound hard, but its reality. btw, cleaners are called 'sanitation engineers'. xD so, we move on.. u gotta get ur own apartment. to live in. ur parents would no longer need a mansion to live in. moving out means, bank loans to pay for ur HDB estate. and furniture. and every month, u'll have to pay ur handphone bill, utility bills and if u own a car, ur monthly car installments with over rated interest. ur house phone bill, ur daily allowance have to be think thrice before spending, and mayb groceries?
and if u've got a girlfriend, u've to spend some money when going out. and if u're planning to get married, u'll incurr more bank loans. after which, u still gotta think abt ur descendants. a load to think abt. and not forgetting ur job. u gotta constantly upgrade urself in order to stay in the company. and not forgetting the percentage of retrenchment. and CPF, ur insurance, ur bank account.
with all these to shoulder at age 21 and so forth, phew does it sound hard. we even got to worry abt out health. another added factor to increase our burden cos if any serious illness hits us. there goes ur coffin/burial money. D:
i'd rather stay young. forever.
its just me.
