I always think that people who write, think a lot. They think about their purpose in their lives, they think about life, they think about what to write about the purpose in their lives. Hahaha. Basically, a philosopher. Modern one, may I add.
After finishing my finals, I think a lot about what's life gonna be, for someone who has turned 22. And I got a lot to write about it.
Family
Basically I learn to appreciate my close ones more. Especially my family. Especially, my mum. We are known to treat each other as best friends, not the very formal mother-daughter kind of relationship. But because of it, we argue a lot and made my dad headache. As if he has two daughters with very similar characteristics. Hehehe. After the break up, I realised how much I would like to be appreciated, especially when it comes to small little things.
Hence, I learn to fulfill my mum's wishes, trying to fulfill them immediately and not saying later or tomorrow first. For example, when she needs my help in teaching her how to edit the words in Microsoft Word, I'll again and again remind myself to be more patient to her, after all that she had done for me, she does deserve my patience as well. Unless she snapped at me for not understanding her problems then probably I'll snap back that she doesn't know my explanation for her problems. Hehehe.
And Nek loves how much I say I love you or I miss you to her back. So the last time she says I love you to me, I just told her that I love her too. Meaning it as well, not because to just return her the words that she had said.
If these small little things can make people around me happy, why not?
Financial
When you're 22, it means that you're an adult. Some people take it as a token to go clubbing and gambling. Others take it as having more responsibility. By the time you're 22, no matter what field you're studying, I believe that one should know how to handle money. By that, I mean how to save money, how to control your expenses, and if you have extra savings, then the question will be how to make your money grow. In other words, investment.
I know that some people love to watch videos or play games during their free time. It's great to have ourselves entertained and relax, but as a 22 year old, we gonna learn how to handle our money. Maximise the usage of internet would be great because there are a lot of free information (articles/videos) out there. Or by reading books like Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki or Top Money Tips by KC Lau.
Many might think that money is not important but when you need it, trust me, you'll be in trouble because you'll have sleepless nights everyday thinking about the unsolved problems. Unfortunately for me, I don't really have savings in my bank other than what I got from internship because I don't have monthly allowance from my parents since young. It's always the "you want how much I give you but you need to tell me what you wanna use it for" or the "you got everything already still want money for what" phrases. And also because of the "our family still can survive you don't need to work part-time job". -.- But on and off they do give me some ang pao for big days like finals or birthday la. So to do investment, I need to start from zero, as in when I get my very first permanent job. Earn money, save money, handle money with care. ;)
Blog
Yes, this blog. Started since 2009. 7 years of blogging woohoo! Recently I had changed the layout and I love it so much! Whether it's the font of the posts, or the wallpaper, or even the pastel blue, I love it all!

| Nice right?! |
I still have two travel posts yet to be updated, one about Bangkok and another about Hanoi. Both also second-time trips. Because I always have a lots of things in my mind so I kept on delay blogging about my experience when I travel. And I won't be so free to blog so much after I got my permanent job! :'(
Career

| So me right now. Hahahahaha. |
Final Results
Since next week is already Monday, it means that results for the finals will be out very soon! Not just results! But our honours as well!!! Super nervous already. And our convocation...it's still a looooooong way to go. *sigh*
Dreams
I still haven't give up on wanting to learn coffee art, own a boutique, own a cafe, travel around the world, etc etc. Gah, why some people don't have dreams at all and I have too many! I guess focus is the main point here. We can't exactly want to achieve everything at the same time. So what we need to do is to do things according to one step at a time. Which one to focus first, will be another good question to think of. At the age of 22, you need to have some dreams in your life. They are the goals of your life and when you have something to look forward, you will be excited about life.
Health
They say that health is wealth. Which is sooooo true. What's the point of sacrificing sleep to earn money and then to use the money earned to lay on the hospital to get good sleep.
你
我还没正式向你说声谢谢，谢谢你给我的礼物。我把你写的信重读了，你提到这是你买给我的第一份礼物，之前会怀疑是不是你真的买，是因为你向来说你不会买东西给我，除非是倾向日常用品的东西。
以前我说过我不需要你买泰迪熊给我，我是真的真的不需要你买，因为在那15件事里你办得到了14样，我觉得我很满足，我很幸福，我感受被爱，不需要你再买一个泰迪熊来证明你对我的爱。所谓的泰迪熊，其实是玩偶，它不一定是泰迪熊，它可以是企鹅，熊猫，乌龟，重点是它是一个可以让我想起你的东西。可是久而久之，每当我难过一次，我就只想要你的安慰，你的拥抱。可是我得不到，慢慢地我就开始想要拥有一个你送给我的玩偶，暂时代替你，让我倾诉心事。抱着它，仿佛你在抱着我一样，仿佛你在安慰我一样，想把我的不安建立在你送给我的玩偶上，或许我就不那么难过了。可是你从不主动送我一个，我每个晚上都生气我自己为什么要这么体谅你的经济状况，让自己舍不得要你买些什么给我，然后让自己更难过。
下一次，如果你再次遇到有好感的女生，在追求她之前，麻烦你，先确定你是不是真的放下了我，然后把电话里属于我的照片全都删掉，不要再阅读我的部落格，不要再特地去留意我的点滴了。至于手机密码的事，不会重演，因为在换掉旧的密码输入新的密码时，你并没有放关于我的密码，你只是用你的车牌号码取代她的车牌号码。当时我其实好想好想问，为什么跟她没联络了却放关于她的密码去记得她，跟我在一起却没想过要放关于我的密码。后来你连密码都不放了，我就不再去想这件事。总而言之，你需要做的事，比恋爱更重要。只有把书念好，你才有机会找个稳定的工作。只有有稳定的工作，你才有机会给你喜欢的人幸福。现在的你，什么都没有，不如先做好自己的本份吧。
你送给我的熊猫我把它放进橱里了。如果有天，我们真的有机会重新开始，我才会将它拿出来。虽然太迟了，可是我还是再一次地谢谢你。
God
Whether it's good or bad times, I learn that there's some reasons behind the situations that we face and it's something that God wants us to know. Instead of asking God "why?", we should look deeper and discover the lessons that we are able to learn. From there, we gain strength, we gain peacefulness in our hearts. And we learn to thank God and love more.
Although I can't always see You or what You are doing, Lord, I rest in Your love for me.
