Glimpse Into The Phuture
Ask me where I see myself in 10 years when I was 8? I'd have the answer in an instant. Now I'm clueless really. I have big dreams, definitely ambitious. I wanna be a creative director one day at some renowned advertising agency but sometimes I wonder if it's way outta my league.
I'm going through a transitional period right now. I hate choosing between Universities, especially courses. When I just completed my 'O's. I was a total screw up but I was given a second chance from the man above. I learned a lot in Lasalle and stumbled upon passion. A blessing in disguise indeed. Not everyone would be as lucky as I am. I have friends who are older than me and cruise through life not knowing what's next for them. It worries me.
Studying in Australia is not gonna be cheap. But my Mom, the one person I thought would disagree, gave me her full support. In situations like these, you'd expect full support and contribution from both parents huh? Ok so here's the thing, my dad didn't like the whole idea at first. But once my mother offered to pay, he didn't even think to offer to share the cost. Fuck I'm furious!
My Mom, the one with the lower income in the family, the one paying for everything else without getting any extra household expenses from my Dad, is actually going to pay for my overseas education. How unfair is that? My Dad is the egoistic, insensitive man of the family who treats his friends better than us. My mom pays for both me and my brothers' transportation fees, she gives us our pocket money, she pays for our monthly insurance, she pays for household expenses. My Dad pays for cable TV, internet, water, electricity, me and my brother's handphone bill (which by the way is about maximum $70 a month for both) and car maintenance. So who pays more in the family? I'm not going to judge really, I'll just have to wait and see if my Dad would actually sit through this.
My Mom never had an easy life and has always been the weakest in the family. With her being this vulnerable to illnesses and not hesitating to sacrifice her insurance money just to pay for my education, shows me how much she loves me. It just breaks my heart to have to sit through this and not do anything about it. I can't freaking talk to him. Everytime I try have a decent conversation with him. He'll just snap and it pisses me off. I communicate with my Dad through notes. I'll leave it at the door every night. How pathetic is that. I'm just gonna take one step at a time and see where this leads to. Thank you Mom.
Ok let's drop the serious stuff. On a lighter note, I was at Phuture with my classmates on Friday night. Bumped into a couple of friends. Basically, it was awesome minus the feet stomping! Gosh there were so many people, ugly guys could go there and get lucky with all that squeezing. LOL.
So most of my schoolmates left earlier but I decided to stick around with a couple of friends. At the end of the night, when everyone was leaving, some cute guy made my day, although I was pretty sure there weren't any cute guys around. I'm a sucker for a cute smile and dayuuum, he sure had one. LOL.
And then there was this atrocious English guy who came up to me and asked me if I would like to share a cab with him. Hilarious. I was on my cell, so I ignored him and that guy didn't leave me alone. He grabbed me by the shoulders and said "What good would you get from using your phone, let's share a cab". Shit that guy was wasted. I was practically running away from him. When Teresa told him off, he eventually left me alone. Next thing we knew, some bouncers were running after him in the midst of all that traffic on the road. It was like watching some Travis MTV. When they caught him, he was handcuffed on the spot. Dude, say goodbye to sunny Singapore.
Awhile later, there was this other guy who approached us after. He was so direct and we were obviously insulted. Teresa was pretty pissed.
White Guy: Do you ladies wanna come with us?
Teresa: No!
White Guy: Why?
Sharon: *Checks out the bald spot on his head* *Disgusted*
Teresa: *Points at a group of SPG looking chicks* Try them.
White Guy: *Tryna look cool* Ok thanks.
Sharon: *Rolls eyes*
