 so what are you gonna do when you get home?  Wednesday, December 8, 2010
I wrote this, in my pretty notebook paper -
but I'm putting this here so I can remember.
It's like I know what I should do, but I don't do it. It's stressful. I just want to relax. But girl, you should know your priorities. I should, I should. I always say that, don't I?
To be quite honest, it's quite a crazy thing if one actually wants to sacrifice fun with stress. But he's right - it's all in the attitude.
As a student, there simple isn't enough time to have both a vibrant life and to be a good student. This is the cold, hard, simple truth. Life isn't all sunflowers and sweet-smelling roses - never was, never will be. Always things to do, always things to catch up on.
More and more is demanded of you -
Difficult things you'd rather not do.
This rings true for student life, but it applies, even with "making music" as you've always wanted and dreamed of doing. Perhaps even more. You can't always do what you want, or get your way. But you should still be thankful for being where you are right now. Many people would do inexpressible things to be in your place.
Somehow, you've gotta suck it all up and live with it. Not just live - improve. You like FT Island and Kpop? Want to buy their albums? You need money. You have it right now, yeah. Free cash flow from Mom and Dad. But what about next time, whwn you go out into the world with only your own two legs for support?
He's right. Education determines your status quo in life. I'm privileged enough to be enrolled in a costly A-Levels college course, but even now - I'm still a post-SPM student with a slack-off, want-to-enjoy-to-the-max attitude.
I've paid dearly for it already - my AS sucks. Look at Chem. P1. It's completely unbelievable if I told anyone, but I was literally playing guesswork in the one hour used to answer the 40 questions. Freaking embarrassment.
Now A2 looms. Do you really WANT to do badly again, when you know you can do much better? Hard work. You can avoid it if you want, no problem. But you'll be the one regretting it when you're learning a concept for the umpteenth time, with classmates a year younger than you.
This is real life, baby. There's no erase. No backspace. The needle only goes forward, etching out the present with the choices you've made for yourself.
