I Know What I Want...

I know what I want,
I want to be a doctor.
I want to be a lawyer.
I want to be an accountant.
I want to be a dancer.
I want to be a singer.
I want to be a game developer.
I know what I want,
I want to get married at 25.
I want 3 children.
I want 2 boys and 1 girl.
I want 3 boys.
I want to be a grandparent at 50.
I want to celebrate my 30th wedding anniversary in Seychelles.
I know what I want,
I want no degree.
I want 1 degree.
I want 2 degrees before 27.
I want a Masters' degree before 29.
I want a PhD before 35.
I want to be a Professor before 40.
Kudos to all who know what they want.
It is a rare talent to know what you want.
It is a greater talent to get what you want.
It is the greatest reward to enjoy what you want.
It is wonderful when your wants make you happy.
But, what if I don't know what I want?
What if I don't know my talent?
What if I don't know what I like?
What if I don't know what I want to become?
What if I don't know if I want to get married?
What if I don't want children?
But, what if I know what I don't want?
I don't want an unhappy life.
I don't want an unfulfilling career.
I don't want a knowledge-less certificate.
I don't want a broken marriage.
I don't want children I can't take care of.
I don't want to be broke.
I don't want a sad home.
I don't want a fake life.
I don't want a life where I fit into a prescribed box.
I don't want a purposeless life.
I don't want a life without fun and happiness.
I don't want a life without love.
Is it okay to know what I don't want, 
Even though I don't know what I want?

Qudos to the D...

A big shout out, and thank you to the Ds out there, who have what it takes, know how to use it; and have good character to back what they have. Different types of Ds exist, apart from the size, colour, height, age and so on; I group the Ds into three (4) groups, which are: M, R, PD, and the N group. To the M group (aka Messi group), they are naturally gifted, and we thank them very much for that. They are Ds who use what they have very well and are natural at using it to give utmost pleasure or satisfaction. To the R group (aka Ronaldo group), who train very hard and become great at it, thank you very much. Your dedication and consistency are appreciated. To the PD group (Plain Ducks group), who are not naturally good or own as much skillset as the R group, thank you very much for using what you have to help us.  I have met different Ds in my life, some have been good, some bad, thinking about the bad ones is making me angry. To the good ones out there, thank you for be...

Till We Meet Again...

I lost a dear friend today, and it hurts too much. When you lose someone, no matter how good or bad your relationship was with the person, there is this feeling of loss, whether you want to accept it or not. The feeling is more intense when you have to witness life gradually drain out slowly from that person. It hurts like a bitch when an energetic person filled with life, love and laughter is drained of all that goodness slowly and painfully.  It is annoying because you keep remembering how vibrant the person was, as against their present state. It is frustrating when you know there is nothing you can do about it. You feel useless when all your resources don't help the person, and you have to rely on fate and life to decide whether the person lives or dies. Life, the determinant of the person's fate, has a funny, unexpected, unwanted way of surprising us; especially when the surprise is not funny. Life is indeed unkind and unfair at times. Hoping for your loved one...

My BAE...

Today , my day was GREAT, I hope yours was great as well . You will NOT believe who made today special. It was no other person than my heartbeat, my boo boo, my darling, my true love, who I never thought I could miss this much. I never really understood the saying, "You never know what you have until it is gone" ; well, now I do understand. I am not really one who gets attached to things or people easily, this is why I am so surprised that I could miss him this much. Thanks for being there when I needed you the most. Apart from family, water (drinking water), hot boys, novels (about Theo, Dante, Alejandro, Alexander, James Mallory, you know the rest) and music, my darling is one of my beloved treasures that can bring a smile to my face anytime anyday. I knew he was in this category, but I never wanted to accept it because he is really not good for me based on some issues. Just the thought of him has made me happy for about a week. Ever since I heard he was...
