The little things in everyday life
One day. 24hrs. One week. 7 days. One hour. 60min. One min. 60 seconds. These are just mere statements of how time is broken down. Time. A powerful phenomenon of which people speak of, as time flashes by in a whirl. I was out shopping with my frens a couple of weeks ago, when we chanced upon this shirt in Giordano(if i din rem wrongly). Black with gold words, it read: Soon your life will flash by. Make sure it's worth watching. I laughed inside. Another one of these quotes, yet so cliche yet very much true.
Time, and how to manage it. Many people talk about time management and their different ways of making use of it. When i was a teenager I used to like to think that if one day isn't spent productively and achieving a certain aim it would be considered wasted, and i'd feel bad about it. To tell me to read self help books would be as good as saying i needed help, and childishly, i didn't like the idea of being thought of as someone who needed help. So much for all the self consciousness. As a result? I don't learn.
There is also another favourite question pertaining to time. If you could turn back time, what would you change? Lol. Just like perfectionist players (in video games) like to save and replay if they lost, and to go through it again an again just to make it right, i would think that if i really had the choice of turning back time, there are just too many things that i would want to change. HOWEVER. Things happen for a reason. And that's why the movie Butterfly Effect was all the more impactful. That going back in time to change things would probably mean that our fates would change 180 degrees and even become totally warped, not to our liking certainly, simply because many things are beyond us.
Moving forward, there are quite a couple of things i'd like to do before the start of uni. I'll categorise them under Health, Wealth and Relationship.
A. Health
1) To keep fit and bulk up, hit the gyms often
2) To maintain a reasonably healthy =p diet, of course the more calories the better, though not too much unhealthy fats
B. Wealth
1) To stick to my job all the way even if i get bored
2) To do more reading up (i've gotten a couple of books for self reading)
3) To understand the subject of Business a little better before uni, especially pertaining to current affairs and economics. As for the more intricate Business stuff like Actuarial Science and Marketing, ahh leave it to uni bah. Lol.
C)Relationship
1) To keep up with frens through leisure/serious/crappy/fun activities, be it out in the blazing sun or in the airconditioned room, to find out how we are doing with our lives.
2) To appreciate my family even more than before, to spend quality time with them
Goal setting is important, yet i don't quite believe in going into the nitty gritty details of goals as of now, cuz for me it's just going to be another case of paralysis analysis.
Anyway, this post is getting a bit too serious. Getting very tired liao, tomorrow will be a great day. so long...
