Now I know...

why I always said UM is like a prison for me. I don't like studying. Ya, it's true. Believe your eyes. Believe what you've read. It's not that I dislike UM. I just dislike the fact that I need to study and the reason is for? To get a so called certificate which is made of paper (maybe slightly thicker than normal paper).

What's my purpose in life? Somehow in the middle of my journey, I would always get off track. I just came back from rehearsal for YLS Live Concert 2010. At that point of time, I suddenly recalled back what do I actually really like and want.

In my previous post (forgot which one d), I said that I like to perform on stage. I never forget this and it will always be my dream to be one of the performers be it singer, musician, dancer, emcee or even actor. I just love to perform. Reason: I like to be in the center of attraction. Yes, I admit that I love the feeling when I've done something that entertain others and they appreciate my effort for it and applause is given to me. This is what I long for. It's not that I want to show off my talent or whatsoever (I don't even have any talent). It's just that I enjoy interacting with people and I love music. Music is my soul!

Some of you might think that I'm just being vain or ego or whatever words you could think of for being a person who desires for people's attention. That's my nature. But this doesn't mean that I don't care about others at all. This just means that my world is not in the accounting field. And why the heck am I taking up accountancy now?!?

I take for the sake of reality. Not everyone can be successful in the entertainment world. This is a fact. I need a secure job for a secure future. This is also a fact. Thus, I don't need to explain further, you know why.

Two more years to go in UM. I must make the most out of these 2 years. This is a promise I made to myself. I'm sad for not being able to perform this year. This is something I regretted and I will never let this happen to me again. I will grab every chance I have from now on to attain my dream.

Try This!

You'll be surprised at the end of it!

The Charlie Schulz Philosophy

Try this:

1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America pageant.
4 Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor and actress.
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.

The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.

Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special!!
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.

Easier?

The lesson:
The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They simply are the ones who care the most!

When you feel your world is upside down...

just remember this...

Life isn't fair, but it's still good.

When in doubt, just take the next small step.

Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.

You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.

Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.

Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.

Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.

Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.

It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.

When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.

Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion! . Today is special.

Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.

No one is in charge of your happiness but you.

Frame every so-called disaster with these words, ''In five years, will this matter?"

Always choose life.

Forgive everyone everything.

Time heals almost everything. Give time, time.

However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.

Believe in miracles.

God loves you because of who you are, not because of anything you did or didn't do.

Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.

Growing old beats the alternative - dying young.

All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.

Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.

If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.

Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.

The best is yet to come.

No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

Yield.

Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift.
