It's my one year anniversary of my previous blog, ayeforavery. Why start anew? I was adapting to my name during the one year, and now it's a new phase. As you all know, work has exposed me further to the world, I've learnt a ton of life-time knowledge. Slowly I accepted the fact that I'm no longer one without real responsibilities; I have to make proper decisions and not regret ever. Tough, yes, but life goes on.
I can now be confident and say, 'Grades do not define my future; it is a stepping stone; for I am the one who will make my destiny.'
I do want to achieve good academics don't get me wrong, but after having my first 'F' and another 'F', beating myself up for being dumb, I came round to it. I can never be the studious clever one. However I have personality and character which would take me further. Be smart, not clever. Be wise, not genius. Be motivated, not competitive. Be hardworking, not slacker. Be contended, not greedy. And the most important thing, be happy.
In future, I want to look back my life and feel the same excitement I used to have. My memories shouldn't be just stressing over academic. My memories should be of me smiling happily having a dime in my life. Yeah, crap that shit to all those crazy studious people out there who thinks that getting GPA 5.0 is the most important thing of all. What they never know is how many people they pushed away and how lonely they'd feel ten years down the road having nothing to remember about school. That sucks.
And that, is why the new space to pen down the new-found me.
