MIDNIGHT!/ Wednesday, January 25, 2012
I had the slackest CNY this year with all my visiting done in the evening. Yea, the hype had died down this year. Other than gambling on the first day, and coming back with a purse-ful of coins and an interesting gossip, there's nothing exciting. Just waiting for the day my classmates come over to my house for a CNY gathering. I hope it would go well!
After every annual meeting with my female cousins on the maternal side, I would be left pondering deeply about my life. Maybe because they are experienced mature ladies, and they'd been through what I am going through, I find myself being able to relate to them a lot.
One thing they said that was, the older they grew, the lesser the drive they would have to fight for their passion. And they reminded me to do things I am passionate about now before losing that drive.
Wise words.
I really don't want to be an energy-depleting lady in future. :/ However, we can't control our metabolism rate. One day, I won't be as fit and energetic as now.
I thought I had everything figured out till I started asking myself again,
"What am I exactly supposed to do at 20?"
The older I get, the more I would wish that I was still as young as these 2 little cutie pies. Being able to have your parents 'protect' you and not having to worry about anything in this world. Sigh. Soon everything is going to be a reversal.
My parents would still be guiding me, but there'll come a time where I'll start 'protecting' them. Nope, I'm not complaining. I would very much love to be the one whom my parents could rely on. I just wished that time would slow down a little.
Tomorrow morning would be a show of putting on a confident front and having my first dry-run for my FYP presentation. Why does it feel like I'm going for the actual one? :/
I can slowly tell that I'm losing interest in studying science by the attention I'm giving to my work.
Good luck!
Now and Forever.
