You can call me Noi! This blog consists of my thoughts. I am just a simple person with BIG dreams! Like the charcoal, hot pressure and extreme heat must be present in order to create a Diamond. I am in the exact same process.

THE Future

I am feeling much better than 2 days ago. Its just that my voice is still like this and I kinda like it because it sounds so sexy. But there is nothing sexy about coughing my guts out and wiping the phlegm off my nose. I know what you are gonna say Mr Fab, no pictures this time. Maybe in the future if you continue to corrupt my mind:p Dutchy is having a contest called 'Pimp My Bathroom'. She has very bravely put up a picture of her bathroom for you guys to pimp it. You can read about the details here!

Yesterday I had the opportunity to be at BBS of Bo and Helen Alex! Yay! It was such a long journey there that even after leaving home early, I only arrived at 7.05. That was the fastest I have ever walked in heels and I was so sure I will arrived before everyone. I was wrong and even Fir who was from marine parade was already there.

I have always believe that the more challenging it is to get to the place of function, the more meaningful the function is going to be. It was better than expected. I saw Helen Alex wearing a beautiful black dress and when she starts talking, she is just poise and so ladylike. She was the mellow type and she mentioned about keeping in mind the rewards are greater than the challenges. What we need now is to have a little dream. A dream is lifeless and worth nothing when not pursued. That is why it needs us to continually nourish it and feed it so that the fire will not go out. Isnt it sad to see people who have completely forgotten what is their dream when they were young? I think people need to take responsibility of their own destiny and not blame the environment and situations. Either way, you make the decision how you want your life to be. I came across this while doing a mini project on saturday.

Life is like being in a taxi. The meter keeps on ticking whether you are moving or standing still.

We do not like being in taxi and not moving right? Why? Because at the end of the day, we still need to pay the price. Therefore, we might as well go somewhere. We are forgeting one thing though. We need to know our destination. If not, the driver do not know where you are going and you will still be sitting still in the taxi. I have met a lot of people who do not know where they are going in life. To me that is sad because if you tell me you do not know what your future will be, it will be nothing. Your future will be nothing. Nothing great and nothing worthwhile. Sadly too, some of these people are not in their 20s anymore and I always thank God that I am so blessed to have woken up from the world of delusion. Now I know that instead of hoping that my future will be better, I can make it better. Starting from now. A lot of people forget that the future will consist of the decisions they make today. Today is where we have the power to invest our time and money into something worthwhile so life is a little easier in the future.

It breaks my heart to see this 'hoping' thing going on because a lot of them are going to end up being dissapointed. Wont you be more happier when you have control? Control of destiny, future etc. At least I know I am doing, not trying but doing.

Yesterday too I had the first conversation with Nurul in months! Happy birthday! Nurul is my best friend and she just turned 25! Although we were born in the same year, she is a November baby while I am a February baby. Soooo...while she was coping with the 'being in mid twenties crisis', I was like, hello? I am turning 26 in a few months time. I dont know why but turning 25 for me was like greeted by panic and the feeling of wanting to vomit. As much as I want to be in a state of serenity, since I spent teenagehood being in war against acne and stupid people, adult life unexpected turns that I never imagined possible. I mean, I was suppose to make my first million dollars by the age of 25 and that dream is now being postponed to 29. I still want to make it before turning 30. It may seem so far away now but trust me I am doing bit by bit and no, it is not done through saving money from the ridiculously microscopic pay that I am currently having.

No matter what I insist on having the positive attitude that the future WILL be better for me because I am doing whatever it takes to succeed. I shall not wait for success. I shall run to it!

All challenges are temporary.
