Life Lately …

 

Dear Zach,

… has been exhausting yet fulfilling. I literally have spent my entire time sitting in my room reading journal articles for my research purpose more than I read for the past few months I could remember. The good news is that I have done my research proposal and just some touching up has to be done before submission in two weeks time. It was such a huge relief when I finally have the huge burden off my chest only to realize exam weeks are only few weeks away.

I cannot help but to think about life after University as I am only few months away from finishing my entire degree life. It gives me shiver every time I try to think about it. Not because life after University sounds horrifying as what most people told me, is the time I spent in my University life that I am going to miss. Even though four years of having been in University, especially my own small room in dormitory, is not that long, I still consider this place as my second home. It feels like I have gotten used to life being here, independently work out my life day after day, and the best part is I have attached to this lifestyle I do not want to change it at all. Sometime changes are inevitable. Learning to relinquish something you love is the hardest part of all, but moving on from the original spot is of important. Soon I am going to have to adapt these changes and start a entirely new life after graduation.

Speaking of life after Uni, I have been thinking a lot about my career and job scope that I am interested in. It is such a headache moment when you want to look for a job that you really like that you do not want to spend the rest of your life raving and ranting about how sucks your job is. I have even discussed with my parents about my career and they are fully support of my whatever decision I will make. I have been asked if I intend to pursue my Master after that. Truth be told, I have not really given a thought about furthering my studies because I have zero intention of doing that. All I ever wanted to do is to get a decent job and start earn for living. I have to pick up my responsibility to take care of my parents even though I have my elder brother doing so. And my parents could not afford to have me going abroad for further studies. Hence, if I ever intend to do so I will have to start working my ass off for that. Plus, I want to spend as much time as possible with my parents as they are my closest people in the world. Life is too short and we can never predict what will gonna happen next in few hours. Bottom line, I would not want to go abroad for any occasion unless it is for business purpose.  

As for now, I just have to do my best as I can be to complete my studies. Hopefully, everything turns out to be good as I thought it would be.

Some Thought About My Life In University

Dear Zach,

Classes will be starting in less than a week. There go five weeks of semester break and during the five weeks of ample of time I seemed to be doing none other than a single productive thing at all. Truth be told, I am glad I will be able to start attending classes as soon as possible. At least I have things that I needed to attend to other than residing in my home doing nothing. I am truly looking forward to this year. Since the fact that this year will be my Final year of my degree life, I’ll definitely fully make use of the year while I still in my college before I start my life as a working adult.

Year by year, my number of friends is getting lesser by one or more than one it seems. Some are going abroad; Some are graduating from University. The idea of not being able to have the olden good times we used to have in class, jokingly teasing each other, talking bad about our lecturer and obnoxious classmates and the time we spent talking during lunch time, saddens me much I could say. And I could still remember the first day of class in my degree life remain vivid in my memory - that was two years ago. Strangely It seemed like it happened yesterday. There is one saying goes, “As the time goes by, one by one people around will be leaving you.” Or I should say “as life goes on” instead. It is completely and utterly true though. As our life has been improved by the ever-changing advance technology around us, I believe the time flies by all the more faster than it already does. Anyhow, I’ve gotten used to being a loner. I’ve adapted to such situation like this. I’ve evolved to a person who can be independent from people around me. Thanks to my blog, I’ve finally been able to project myself with pure confidence regardless people have known what I really am. I’m only a human. Duh. One day I will miss it.

When the sun dies, and the star fades from view, my heart will remain real and  true.

A Blank Page

Dear Zach,

Today is the first blank page of a 365 page book.. Write a good one. Indeed, write a good beginning for a starter of a new year. I am pretty sure everyone is busy making resolutions and to-do list for 2014. Having said that, mostly everyone would have failed to achieve from what the to-do list have been written in the end of the year. #Justsaying #Sorrynotsorry
2014 is pretty much an important year for me, after a good riddance for 2013, as there will be some major events happening once in a lifetime. Such as:

• Turning 21 – not a big deal to me because birthday is never a big deal to me. Unless someone wants to make the deal bigger than it already does.
• Graduating from University – a once-in-a-lifetime event that I most anticipate of! Though the graduating ceremony will be held next year.
• Having internship as if getting a job – I could say this will be my first baby step in the world of career. As surprising as it sounds, I had never had a job throughout my whole life.

It sums up what will gonna happen throughout the entire year. Stagnant will be a bitch. But hey … what kind of clogged up matter have I never been encountered before? Hopefully, 2014 will bring out the best of me and fortune I can ever ask for.
