So the day has come of my 21'st birthday. You know what this means right? VEGAS. No, just kidding...or am i? I don't know whether i'm excited that i'm becoming older or sad. I know that today, i spent a good hour reminiscing my past. And as i was doing this, i was listening to all my favourite bands i used to listen to. God only knows why i stopped listening to such awesome music. I blame my computer, for crashing almost 5 times and messing around with my itunes air-go all my music disappeared, leaving my ipod with a measly 500 songs, out of at least 1000 i used to have. *sadface* When i listen to 'real' music and the music that is 'hip' now, i really want to bang my head on a wall. The next generation growing up has seriously lost all taste of what real music is. I don't blame them, i mean, you listen to 'i'm sexy and i know it' and you think that it is the shit.  I hope these kids will take a listen to music from 'back in the days'. Anyways, in about half an hour, is the international day of love, and coincidentally, my birthday as well. Luckily, i have a valentimes this year ^^ haha no, it's okay if you don't have one. There's always some intense debates the days proceeding this date. Some call it single's awareness day, or forever alone day. Why all the negativity? You don't need someone 'special' to make you happy. And frankly, if you're the type of person to bounce from relationship to relationship, that's a good sign that you are super dependent. Ain't nothing wrong with being independent. But i feel that people should come to a mutual consensus; valentines day is amazing for people who actually are in love, and it's just another day for people who are not. Why do these two sides have to fight all the time? No one's hating on you if you're single, but please, don't hate on others in relationships who engage in those clichés you see in the movies.

Impressions

First impressions are undoubtedly very important. I mean, I find myself in a career where I need to go into the classroom with confidence and a glowing attitude or else my students will walk all over me and take advantage. And God only knows that I don’t want to be a doormat again (this ain’t London). I know that in a classroom, it’s not about being aggressive, rather assertive . That is the first impression I want to be able to depict to my students right from the get-go. Because let’s be honest, I still feel like a little girl (thank you petite-ness). Any important situation whether we’re at an interview, at a party or meeting our work team, the first impressions are so important and most of the times spot-on. Of course, you shouldn’t just judge someone on their first impression if it wasn’t the best, give them that benefit of the doubt. One feels more comfortable judging after they get to know someone. I mean, the truth is that you can’t live your life without being judged, t...

Thank you for the lesson

  A long time ago I came across some words of wisdom which explained the importance of forgiveness. At that stage in my life, I was completely anti forgiveness. I still understand why, and though I’d like to say my views on said topic have changed, I’d be slightly lying. I’m very good at blocking things out of my life, that’s how I cope. But every once in a blue moon, you get an unnecessary, by chance reminder. And it kinda takes you to mental head space you had kept far away. A few (many) words that I want to say to my past self; “You knew better. How could you allow it time after time? You wasted your time investing energy and effort into a dead end. Feels dumb doesn’t it? Everything that was said, was said to break you, all excuses, immaturity and white noise. Realize it and understand. Not everyone you meet will have good intentions and true sentiments. Life becomes easier when you learn to accept the apologies you’ve never gotten. Don’t free the criminal from the crime, just f...
