FOREVER YOUNG - oh yeah!

I suddenly feel an immense need to blog, or to express myself in words, though I have found it getting more and more difficult to do so (blog) due to the amount of work I'm doing now.

If you look at the number of things I am doing, you might think "woah, I'm like some busy man". Yes, so besides my recent new job working as internet marketing consultant, I'm still giving tuition, and still attending school (though I have missed a number of lessons!) and am also some sort of part-time trainer in some training consultancy. But then, I still feel as if I'm not doing enough yet. Seriously.

For your information, I just turned 24. And it suddenly dawned upon me that I am no longer labelled as a "teenager" of any sort, though I secretly hope that I can still be that YOUNG. Then again, I heard people telling me that I AM still young whenever I grumbled about getting older.

Here's what I really hope to accomplish before the big "3" knocks.

-Really go all out to develop my music passion - be it keyboard/piano playing, song-composition, or singing.
-Try some acting, or best still, broadway
-Be an active contributor in magazines - get my writings published!

I think I totally have much that I want to do. And I seriously think I can do a lot of things if I want to. I secretly think that I could dance, and paint, and sketch, design, whatsoever.

I KNOW I CAN.

Sadly, the society confines you to doing things that you might not truly like to do. Like studying for the sake of a piece of certificate which in my point of view, is utter crap.

Hence, I am firm that I won't be a victim of societal pressures. Rather, I want to walk my own walk and talk my own talk. (Go ahead and quote me, lol)

But right now, the "practical" side of me is really working towards building my future paths. Trust me when I say that I am working now, but I make sure I don't slog myself too much. Too much stress ain't good. I am seriously my own stress manager.

Ironically, I find myself struggling to find more time to do what I want. And the thing is, I always seem to find ways to de-stress and unwind no matter how busy I appear to be.

That's my aim. To get "busy" but at the same time, get some "freedom" along the way. I think I'm totally defining my way of work-life balance here. Hahaha.

One thing I need to credit myself: For being bold enough to do what I want to do.

That, minus the procrastination. Thank you very much.
