It has always been an issue in our life as we grow up. When I was small, money wasn't that important to me, well most probably because I don't hold them and it has always been my parents who hold on to my bank book account. My mum has always been transferring money into my account and there goes money in my bank. It lasted until I was Primary 6 and tadaaa, I started to buy unimportant stuffs as I get older with that money. My mum told me that she managed to keep $300 in my bank and I was so happy because after my PSLE, I got a bursary from my Primary School and they gave me $250. So that makes $550. So much, isn't it? To me, $550 is considered as MORE THAN ENOUGH, when I was small. But now? We need a lot and a lot and a lot of money to spend. Yes, it sure is still more than enough to me right now but with that $550 right now, I can finish it all in a week? 2 weeks? Bad, isn't it? Like I mentioned, it has and always been an issue as we are growing up. I'm currently schooling and working on every weekends just so I can earn money for myself. But sometimes, it's just not enough for me. I'm also thinking of my future and thinking what am I going to do after I graduated. Like, am I going to continue schooling? If I am then am I going to take Full-Time? Part-Time? Private school? And if I do, who's going to be responsible of my school fees? Am I going to just work? And if it's true, where am I going to work at? All of these things are haunting me every single night before I go to sleep. It's really scary just by the thought of it. I can literally cry. It's so stressful. Can I be young forever? Sigh. As I'm growing up, I think that it's really important to think of my future and know what am I going to do. At least by planning my future, I know what am I going to do and that I don't have to be afraid of it. Having things planned out for the future sure does have the advantage & disadvantages. But we don't know what the future holds. So let's just pray hard that everyone's future will be a great one and that everyone will have a happy ending in their own story lives.
Marriage.
And I started thinking about marriage. When will I ever get married? At what age will I planned to get married? I planned to get married at the age of 25. But, I don't want to be an old parent. What I'm trying to say is, I want to still be in my early or mid 30s when my children are going to be in their teenage years. Reasons being:
- I can understand them
- They aren't afraid to open up to me cos I'm a young parent :p
Hahaha! With the reasons mentioned above, obviously it makes me think that I should get married now!! But no. I got to save money first even before getting married and achieve all of my #lifegoals first. Without achieving those #lifegoals, I can never get married first! Hahaha. It's just something that I want to achieve in life before starting a new life with my special someone. I want to at least discipline myself so that in the future, I won't act childish anymore since I am going to be an adult soon. I have to already sort out what's the best for my future, which one should I prioritize first, so and so. Therefore, planning all of my future right now would be a great idea so that I know what to do and what are my back up plans for the difficult situation I am going to handle in future. Even though impromptu plans always makes it better, I just want to plan all of it now just so I can be ready for other plans. Don't you think so? Hmm.
