The Ultimate Worrier

I came up with that title hehe..

Neh I'm not here to talk bad or diss anyone out there. Just trying to express my worries over those whom I feel needs to look at life a little bit more seriously. When I see youngsters or peers alike nowadays, I see that there this growing trend of studying overseas just for the sake of being there. Sort of to say, "hey, I studied overseas too " . Well you can roughly guess why they're there in the first place by browsing through their pictures on friendster, myspace or facebook and 101 other vanity induced sites to post your slimmest face online. You know, the pose that gives the impression that you're sucking a thick milkshake in one go ? or maybe the Zoolander pose - Blue Steel hehe ,.. you get my drift ?

And almost 80% of the pics are taken in clubs ? and its being constantly updated on a weekly basis ? Got study or not ?

Whether or not you do well is another story. As long as you bring that piece of paper with the university seal and your name on it. Hey its cool to socialize or hangout . I do that too. Maybe not as often , but I still do.

The point I'm trying to say is , why waste your parents' money like that ?

Maybe some of them have everything set for them when they graduate . But what happens to those who don't know what they wanna do ? instead of taking things day by day and partying all nite , why don't we take a breather and ask ourselves " hey , what am I gonna do later?"

We must all realize that as we get older , there will be sudden change of lifestyles and priorities. I have made certain friends of mine upset just because I declined to do things that we considered 'ok' when I was in college. Unfortunately not many of them managed to grasp that concept.

I come from humble and simple surroundings , for me to get things that I want , I need to work extra hard for it . Unlike the majority of those around me. Maybe its ok for them to waste $$ on certain things and expect the parents to make up for their loss.

I'm not preaching everyone to stop partying and enjoy life. You all have that right, by all means party on :) . I'm just saying , to people who know me , that play time for me has to slashed in half . Simply because I've got things to achieve and important things to take care of . I just want out of your activities list man .

Everybody wants a good life , what are we doing to achieve it ?


Til all are one ...

Peace be upon you..
