Ep 7.1 - The Real World.
hello world !
I'm back again ! heh! Yes, it's like becoming a once a month entry again. This is what happens when you become lazy! Time to buck up Shawn! So my last weekend was spent in Batam! It was great for a short getaway and I enjoyed my time there! Go-Karts, Banana-Boats, Kayaks, Massages, Food!! Best of all, a 2-Bedroom Suite! I spent below $250 in total for everything. My friends and I are thinking of heading there again in December! Wee! I'm hoping more people will come the next time! My dad mentioned about going to Cambodia in December too. Man, looks like December is going to be fun! Anyway, school starts tomorrow ! I'm excited and anxious at the same time. Hopefully, I'll be able to cope with my studies and do well. I definitely want to learn as much as I can. Even if this is not what I eventually decide to do, it will still help me out a whole lot in the future. Photoshop, Animation, Audio/Video Editing. These are definitely some stuff that I'm keen on learning ! I need to get back to driving too! I haven't been going for lessons since I failed my first TP. In fact, I have not even booked my next TP. I just checked and slots are only available in December. Uh oh! I think I need to get back on it fast ! I'm just afraid it will clash with any plans to go abroad. Ah well, we'll see what I can get to. I'm thinking of going to other places in December. Maybe Vietnam or Thailand? But I'm fine even if it's Batam! Wee! Anyway, I'm usually asleep at this timing. However, I'm still awake because I'm off for the whole week! Yayy ! A break from work at last ! So please do date me if you guys are free on the weekdays! =] Oh yes, I'm going to talk about the Real World this time! There's always this dilemma when making certain decisions. Do you follow your heart or your head? A wise friend once told me he doesn't understand why people say that. Simply because the head is the one with the brain! It's true in a sense, however the heart has feelings and emotions. I'm the kind that will normally follow my heart. However, recently things have been more complex. I realised that you can't always please everyone. The reason being you yourself would not be happy. So you have to use your head and think things through. Some decisions may turn out to be self-centered and selfish. But then again, you can't possible always put others before yourself right? I have a friend who makes decisions following his religion. He feels he should do his best in everything and help as much as he can. It isn't wrong, in fact it's very respectable. Something I would love to do just as much. But I've come to realise that if you do that, The Real World takes advantage. The Real World doesn't care how good you are. They only care about taking advantage of you to help them. This irritates me alot as there isn't appreciation at all. It has led to me thinking this.. The more you know, the more people will take advantage of you. Therefore, there is no point to showcase your full potential. I feel it's very unfortunate, but sadly, that's how The Real World works. This is exactly what is happening to me. People just keep throwing things at you because they know you can do it. Even when you are busy and they aren't, they would still not do it. How does that make me feel then ? Oh well, noone said life was going to be easy. It's an unfair world out there. I guess sometimes you truly have to look out for yourself. Think about yourself before putting others in front of you. This is something I would definitely do from now on when it comes to work. You can't always be nice and help everyone. That's what I've learnt! I'm going to stop here for now. Although I won't be in camp tomorrow, it's still going to be a long day! So take care and god bless! =] |
