Through the keyhole
When we were young, the world seemed so beautiful and nice. We are naive and we worry about nothing! Yet, as we grow older, we saw the the world differently.
I remembered when I was a kid, my ambition is to be a cashier. Yes, it seemed very stupid but I still remember why I wanna be a cashier. I am fascinated by the machine that they used!! My sister still laugh at me when she think back. But, that's the true. Now, I don't even know what I wanna be. It's so complicated and I seriously don't know what's my interest.. Funny huh..
When I am still a kid, I always thought policemen were the good people who protect the people. Yet, as I grew older, the thought somehow disappeared. Now, I think that policemen are not the people who protect the citizens, rather some of them are the one who are responsible in causing problems to the country.
When I am still a kid, I don't care about status and money. I think that money can't buy happiness. Now, I am money-oriented and getting a career is for the sake of money. I am not proud of my thinking but what can I do? Indeed, money can't buy happiness but they do help in inducing happiness. It makes me happy when I go home. I need a car to go home, which means I need petrol. Petrol needs money and therefore, we do need money to buy happiness.
When I am a kid, I don't care how I look. I can go out wearing my baggy clothes and I don't care about my weight either. My cousins used to call me fat or something but I don't even bother. Now, even though I am in the range of normal weight, I am very conscious of how I look and I am dieting at the moment.
There you have it.. When we are kids, we see the world using a magnifying glass. Everything seem so big and nice. We don't care about what people think.. When we get old, we see the world through a keyhole. Everything seem so small and not ideal anymore. We are conscious of what people think of us and try to fit in the society. So sit back and think.. What makes us change our mind? Can we use our childhood innocence as a key to open the keyhole, go behind the door and see the world in a wide perspective??

Dedicated to my sister
While I was busy studying for my biology, I saw my phone ringing.. I was my sister.. She sent me a message saying:" Can you call me?"
That instant, I thought that maybe she wanted me to call this chemistry tuition teacher. Yet, when she picked up the call, I heard sobbing......
She had ended the stage that she went to. Which I will not state what it is as it is very private talk. The thing that I wanna stretch here is that, being the eldest among 3 younger siblings. I am always the one that they can lean on when they are facing problems and doesn't want to tell the parents. I am like a part time parent to them when my parents went for vacation. I am my younger sister and brother playmates although we are approximately having 8 years gap. I am also my 15 year old sister shoulder to cry on.
When she wanted me to call her, I am relieved that at least she will find me when she encounter problems and I don't mind cause that is what being a sister do! Yet, the thing is that, I am not good in counseling people and I can only give reasonable advice since I reason with everything before making the decision. I felt like crying when I heard her sounding so sad. Yes, I will admit that I am very emotional but it's just human nature. When someone that you care got hurt, you will feel sad too and want to help them to get better.
So, Wei.. Stop being so sad. It is a part of you growing up! I still remembered when I have my first heart break and it is really heartwretching. I understand how you feel but it will pass!! You still have your friends and family! Cheer up and get your butt out of your comfort zone!! :)
