what do i want to get in my life? what ambitions do i have? what achievements i want to get? all these sounds like primary school compo titles rite? recently i have a chat wif an a'level fresh grad and she is asking abt what courses to choose in uni. she tells mi that she wants to do architecture in nus... if not then do biz... and she wans to get into the scholar programme (btw i dunno got such a thing lah). if she have to choose smu she will onli go if she can get a double degree programme.... "wahhh!" is my response. for me i'll use to think of being a teacher or engineer. yah i'm on my way to being an engineer real soon... but now, all these ambitions seems to be something not wat i wan... maybe this is wat i call maturity in thinking ba... or simply a change in viewpoint in life. as i grow up, i know that ambition is something that is not realli realisable... instead i treat it as a form of energy to drive me when i'm facing downs in my studies. i juz wana get a simple degree.. get a simple job... get a enough to spend + save abit salary...form a simple family.... yah juz tat simple... i dun wish for big house, big car, high post.. or even becoming someone famous. 20 years down the road, who will remember what achievements i attained today? who will remember what high post i reach in this company todae? who will know that although i've achieved all these will i be happy? what i wan is after 20 years, while i look back the path i've walked b4.... i'm living my life to the max... enjoy my everyday, good relationship wif my family, friends, .... maybe some will think tat i lack the ambitious mind to make it big, or that i simply dun have the drive, some may even say that i'm jealous of those who can make it big... hmmm.... maybe i'll be envy of those who achieve their big ambition... but i knoe my limits... or i shld say i know wat i wan in my life...that is to be simple... a life that i wan it to be.... a life without too much ups and downs that will trouble mi....
