Since I am feeling at little down (with a desperate need to uplift my spirits) today, I want to create a post that I needed to keep in mind in the few years to come. A list, which was more or less inspired by another blogger in this site (whose username I wouldn’t want to disclose.
And since the idea has come into my mind about half-an-hour ago, decided to let this site be my uplifting blog. I would let this be as impersonal as possible, by impersonal, I meant devoid of human emotions and rants…haha! But nevertheless, I would turn this into a site that I would crave to fill with entries every once in a while. Let’s start shall we?
For my first uplifting entry (and an enlightening one for that matter) I’d like to put in here a list of must-do’s. In this list, I would be a little selfish in my part, for in here I will be indicating my what-to-do’s for me alone, family and siblings aside. It’s just a list anyways.
Things to do/ have before I turn 25:
1. Earn more than **grand – yup that’s right. And since i will not achieve this with my current company, I should really be on the job-hunt right now
2. A laptop – I’m looking, I’m looking
3. A new cellphone – I can afford this right now, but my self-obsessed wallet is adamant on filling itself as of the moment.
4. My savings to be at least ***grand.. – hm…this is going to be a real challenge, you know
5. Boyfriend! – now this is going to be a BIGGER challenge! oh my, oh my..
6. Earning a masterral degree, or an equivalent academic program – do I really wanna challenge myself this much?
7. Travel out of the country – now this I really really like to do.
8. Able to drive myself from office to house (once in a year would do, as long as I can do it alone)
Actually, these challenges are not enough for me. Come to think of it, I have grown stagnant for the past three and a half years (since I have graduated..) And since I am in no point closer to these goals than I was three years ago, I am writing them down in the hopes that they would be my mantra in the next few years ahead. Wheneve I feel down and lonely, here is my mantra, and hopefully, they would bring out the best in me.
Now, let’s go for more stretchable goals.
Things to do/ have before I turn 30:
1. Have my own house, and living in it – doesn’t matter if it is 100% paid, or still under mortgaged, as long as I am on my independent self!
2. Married – ha! please see my first list, #5 please.
3. Had sex – If my #2 doesn’t work, at least do not let me be abstained when I turn this age.
4. European tour! – now I really really like this (admit it, I wanted someone in particular in my side) – -> wah! I thought this is going to be an uplifting blog?
5. Managerial position – I wouldn’t accept here a junior assistant, or an assistant manager. It has to be a Manager..or up
6. One million bucks?! – Or at least in assets!
7. Masterral degree (or at least several academic programs) under my belt – I really want this, for my enrichment.
8. Earn more than ** grand – now this, I REALLY REALLY have to have
Looking back, these are pretty uptight. And I have to put on a tighter belt, and a more serious frame of mind if I decided to pursue all of these goals before I turn 25 and 30. I can do this, or rather, I hope I could. Aja!
