still young and fresh

Hi everyone,




If you're googling "lady suit" on google images, and you are slightly afraid of seeing obese people in minimal clothing, shield your eyes as you scroll down to the last pic on the first page.








I wonder how many of you are actually googling that up now XD

HOTHOTHOT, or not: Oxford.

Oh my gosh. I was at Macq today, and I saw the most eyegasmic suits ever. And over coats. OH MY GOSH. I would seriously move to Melb or something to have a chance to wear something like that. It never gets cold enough in Sydney to wear a beautiful overcoat like the one I saw in Oxford.

Digressing,

I was talking to my parents about future career choices etc. Since I was a puny puny little human bean, my parents have drummed into my head, the only 2 possible career choices I could undertake.

Law and Medicine.

On my 3D ambition poster I made in year 2, it says "BELINDA WANTS TO BE A DOCTOR OR A LAWYER IN THE FUTURE".

So by the time I reached high school, I was adamant on becoming a doctor. I love genetics, biology, PE/HEALTH. LOVED IT. But in the recent years my parents have been dissuading me from taking the med path. Because of this, my interest in biology and med in general has dropped quite alot. I found this strange, I'm easily influenced by my parents X)

Reasons against Medicine:

1. Time consuming
2. Psychological Trauma (my dad says if watching Neighbours throws me into fits of spastic rage, I shouldn't think about treating other people. Mentally unsound. haaaa T_T)
3. MOOLAH? WHERE WILL I GET MONEY FROM ?!?!?! Parents?

OH! I'll digress slightly. I've touched on this before, but I see money as super important. Um, the 'money buys happiness' thing. BEE TEE DOUBLE EWE, for all those who say "oh, you're wrong, you don't need money to be happy"- good for you. How convenient for you too. I wish I could be happy without money. In today's society, you need money. It's a source of security.

EXAMPLE,

A family friend and her young son once got lost in some really windy streets (while they were driving). The boy started crying and says something like "WHAT IF WE GET LOST MUMMY, WE'RE GOING TO DIE", and his mum said stuff to calm him down, but nothing worked until she said "Don't worry, I have my credit card with me".

True (and gay, yeah i know) story. 100% True.

But bleh. I'd rather my parents spend money on my sister's education than mine. Damnit, I forgot what I was going to say about money.

Something along the lines of people who have money say stuff like "oh money isn't important", while on the other hand, needy people think otherwise. I don't like it when people say that. It really buys me. "oh money isn't important" is missing a "to me".

Ho hum. My mind is really in small bits and pieces today. I can't think properly. Another thing I dislike. People who take things for granted.

We all do it because we grew up in a time where everything became super nice, air con, technology and whatnot. But have you noticed in new generations, the ATTITUDES of children? OKay, by children, I mean those kids of nasty asian parents who never spend a single proper minute with their kid, never teaching them proper values or manners, always away from home- usually at the office. What's worse is that they're rich. Now these kids think they're super powers in kid kingdom. I had to teach one once. Freaking pain in the neck. Just because you possess a large quantity of wealth, it does not mean you will get a good education, it does not mean you can be friends with anyone, or have all the friends in the world. It especially does not mean you can uphold an attitude with an upturned nose.

I hate snobby kids. I've always hated snobs. I've also noticed that alot of snobby kids do not know of respect and MODESTY. What the hell man. That student I taught once threatened me... "My parents are both lawyers, so you can't tell me what to do. I'll get them to sue you."

You're in my bloody classroom kid. Stay here and shut up for gtfo. Usually when I say "I'll call your parents" kids start behaving better, however the rich ones are like, SO? Ticks me off. I met a parent once, and honestly, she did NOT CARE at all that her son was taunting the other kids, that he was disturbing the class. She's a public nuisance.

I'm moving onto new topics so much D: D: D:

Thinking about my old job can be quite amusing. Teaching kids is fun, but every now and then you get the troublesome one, and it's hard to not look like the bad guy (let alone feel like one). But no matter how bad they are, at such a young age, I do no think they are to blame. People who bring life into the world should really reassess the amount of new responsibilties they have. Nowadays, some parents wrongly think that schools are the only place for education. What about the home? What you do around the house, how to act towards other people at the shopping centre will be reflected in your child- someone who looks up to you no matter how evil you are. (Though this is totally and utterly untrue once the kid grows up into a teen. haa).

*** I will say no more on this topic. I sound like an old lady nagging young people at bus stops.

RE: Still young and fresh.

My parents thinks I'm not adventurous enough. When I look for a job, I want security. They're thinking "the higher the risk, the higher the returns". They say because I'm still young, I can do whatever I want with bigger ambitions etc, because when else can I do it? When I'm greying and reaching my days of hormone imbalance and uncontrollable bowels? NOW IS THE TIME-they say. But I'm too afraid.

I'd rather stick to one type of career all my life, instead of changing every 3 or so years (like statistics predict). And I don't mean staying in one company for life (though that may not be too bad :).

Okay. Starting to post this late was a bad idea. you have all wasted your time. Such an anticlimax. I have nothing else to report, except that I LOOK FOWARD TO ALL MY ECO LESSONS. I actually learn alot. I'm dreading my boring classes alot though.

I promise I'll blog nicer next time. haa. It started off okay but I just kept going on tangents. Bleeh. Why am I so much more tired than usual... this constant lethargy is killing me. =-=;

PS. not sure if I mentioned this, but I watch Seven Pounds and Slumdog Millionaire. My mum and I both loved Slumdog. Especially all that dancing during the credits. Oh and INDIA IS SO COLOURFUL. I love it!
