My Life Part Deux

Was a tiring day today.... Had to do up the written report for my project. All is plain sailing though... Just couldn't hand it up tomorrow... which is the dateline by the way.. haha

Anyways, on to my disappointments. I've always said to my friends, the ones that know me anyways, that going into a Junior College is the BIGGEST mistake of my life. Here's the story. I've graduated from secondary school with good O level results. Confident and cocky, i weighed in my options. I was interested in the School of Film and Media Studies back at Ngee Ann Polytechnic. So i registered myself, and I managed to get selected to sit in their written exams. Here's the thing. For one, my best friend, whom i planned to go into the school together, failed his maths. So he couldn't go in to the school. He opted to go for a Junior College, so I followed my heart instead. Went through the same school system as he is. This plus the fact that the results for the written exam is delayed due to SARS, prompted me to stay on. Besides, I have already bought the uniforms and text books.
Then I went through the worst time in my life, academics wise that is. I found out the system is so not for me, and I just cruised through semester after another. Lucky thing I managed to obtain a full certificate for my 'efforts', haha... but seriously, what was i thinking?!?!?! What happened to my best friend took precedence over my decisions. And I paid for it.

However, that decision started my best belief that anyone could have, and that is: No matter what decisions you make, there's always a blessing in disguise. Well, here's a few:

1) I got to play the game of Rugby, and I fell in love with it. Missed playing the game the moment I stopped playing it cos I have to go through A Levels. I mean... if rugby is a girl, I would've married her on the spot.

2) I got to know lots of frens, the hot babes, the cool dudes, and the ones which you can hang around with. Had lots of fun then, helped me cruise through the 2 years i've been in there.

3) Lastly, fell in love with this girl. Never had that feeling before. Thing is, I thought she was into me first!!! Haha... so because of that, I got close to her. Then I found out that she thought I was into her, and because of that, got close to me. Funny story that one. How it ended is another story on another day.

Anyways, since that infamous decision, I always live my life having the belief that whatever it is, there's always a blessing in disguised. Lesson Leart....

FINALLY!!!!

After much procrastination, I have built up my own blog. This is nothing I have used before, but I'll give it a try. As what i've known, this is something that I record what's happening in my life, and anyone will see it. So I'll give it a try. Of the 23 years of my existance, I've been pretty much a disappointment. Not a thing for me to boast about, but withouth the mistakes I've done, I doubt that I'll be a better person today. Let's see, what have I learnt. So far, I've learnt that I'm a sweet-talker, that I know as a fact. My friends always told me that. Up to the extent that I managed to break the heart of a lady. I don't intend to, but yeah, indirectly, I broke her heart. Recently, she sent me a music track. Guess what's the title. "Heartbreaker" by Will.i.am.... haha.. tickled my funny bone for a bit, but made me realise that I actually am!!! So I thougt, maybe I should stop being too nice with ladies. Only be very nice to the selected few, like best friends and wife-to-be.

Anyways, one of my big mistakes was to take money from my dad's hard-earned savings. Child's urge to buy toys that friends have. Plus I know that my parents will say no if I asked them to buy. So, with all things considered, I took my dad's money. Bought Tamiya model cars, and other toys as well. Little did I know that all parents have parental instincts to know that I have done something wrong. So, they got to know about it, but surprisingly, apart from the naggings and tears from my parents, I don't really got punished. However, seeing my parents so disappointed (in fact it's an understatement), made me think that I have got to stop them from being disappointed and start taking care of them.As such, I have made it my vision to have them taken care of, to let them have a comfortable life in the future, say 5 years from now... As of now... I'm looking into ways to expand myself and earn as much cash as I can earn. I'm looking to network marketing, that's because it's a proven fact that most millionaires have taken that road for success.

Well, that's one of my visions in life... More of it will be done in my soon-to-be created posts Enjoy reading them...

Hopefully you can share experiences
