And so, it has come to this

*facepalm*
Honestly, I think I am overwhelmed with the things around me.

All at once.

Nosebleed

Nosebleed?!
I tend to nosebleed a lot.

It's probably the weather, or me.

Being very heaty.

Feverish

No mood for anything at the moment. 
I had always been a detector for any transmittable diseases at home, guess what? I am on the verge of getting fever and cough.

It just have to be today.

I have 2 assignments due tomorrow. *facepalm*

Definition of Life

It's the experience that counts.

I adore experiences in life, to me at least. It is like you have yet to live life, if you refuse to embrace the diversity and of course the complexity of life (despite it being really simple essentially). It's overwhelming, all happening so fast. In 2 weeks time, I had experienced more than I ever did experience before in my life.

The decision to go Hong Kong and Macao alone was impulsive and planned, no matter how paradoxical it may sound. I never regretted that decision made in the office that February afternoon. I took my bag, I took my camera and I took my passport and just went to a foreign land with no expectation. I had seen Hong Kong in and out, on foot. Attempted to walk to the airport on a highway nearly cause me big trouble when the police stopped me and (thank goodness) sent me to the nearest train station. Walked on the other side of the city, walked to the quiet side of the city.

I realised.

There's no point rushing over life. There's no point running around in circle. I need to see the world. I need to embrace life at its finest. I took a midnight flight back to Malaysia with a bottle of Absolut 100, and I went to Isaiah's place with Edwin. The next week was crazier than I ever thought it will be.

And now I am here, writing this.

Leaving no regrets behind.

I want a Mac

I want a Mac.

So badly, this Dell laptop of mine likes to burn my finger at 80 degree Celsius. Besides, I could adapt to Mac first before plunging into the advertising industry.

Completion of Internship and then...

I looked at the clock.

I was glad that I do not have to set alarm anymore, the hectic days had finished. Internship was rather annoying, not because of the job, but rather the traffic jam that I had to face every single day. Now, I could just lay in my bed and not to worry about potential accidents and endless traffic jam nightmares. I certainly wonder what am I suppose to do next time as I have such resistance toward the idea of travelling to work next time.

Despite I am glad that I am going back to school, yet the idea of the group assignments are rather disturbing. Have to come out with a plan and make it through year 1 in one piece.

On the side note, I met up with Hui Wen today and we talked about financial planning. So, this is what I am going to do.

Prerequisite: Review Insurances Policy
1. Prepare 6 months worth of income as emergency fund.
2. Get a ten-year saving scheme with a minimum 5% ROI.
3. Purchase a portfolio of Mutual Funds, comprising of 20% moderate risk and 30% aggressive risk.
4. Prepare a stock portfolio of high dividend stocks to about 30% of the portfolio.
5. The rest on real estate investments as soon as the bubble burst.

Will revise on the plan as the time goes, for now let's hope this is simple and friendly enough for young amateur like me.

Determination

I hate restrictions.

Especially when it comes to choices and directions. I know for sure what I want, yet constantly financially challenged over the decision over and over again. I enjoy experience, the idea of going through different things in life, meeting new people down the road and learning new stuff in the process. However, experience comes with a price. Honestly, I never succeed in saving money and it's all because of this.

Yet, it will still happen and the only question that I would ask myself is that how I could I afford this. Somehow financial planning seems like a necessity. I would have to come out with a plan before iI graduate and make sure I could retire by 35 by ensuring 15% ROI per year, not sure how exactly for the time being, but I believe it could be done with careful planning.

Noted.
