thanksgiving for mon(6/2)
thanksgiving:
- got the cash decrepency settled
- mom fetching me home
- dad sending me to work
- 4 COs :)
- jia's call which woke me up
- the very nice ben & jerry's ice cream!
- the friends who support my tertiary choices
seriously.
if you have nothing encouraging to say,
just shut it.
i'm scared enough already by what going overseas will imply.
i know i'll be facing obstecles that i will never face in singapore.
i know that i will be the racial minority there,
and that the people there are much more liberal with their views
and if they don't like you, it means that THEY DONT LIKE YOU.
i know the challenges i have to meet face on,
the amount of discipline i will need to miraculously discover within myself,
the care with which i need to plan out my expenditure,
and the danger of going overseas all alone.
i know what i'm heading into,
something uncertain,
something that i will go into nonetheless
because its only there that i can soar so high
to make an impact on the industry of my choice.
i want to do great things for god,
and you wouldn't understand this motivation of mine.
i'm going to be unsure,
and the last thing i need
is statistics on how unhappy asians are in the states.
if you can't support me through my choices,
just stay away from me altogether.

As i was saying, I meant it as a joke, sorry you took it as otherwise, but maybe the part that said something like 'food portions' too large would have made it clear.
Once again, being your friend doesn't mean I support all your choices (etc. your potential choice to do drugs). This does not however, apply if I am considered to be a metaphorical concrete wall to your metaphorical building.
I don't like your idea of going to the states, firstly and namely because it's bloody dangerous there compared to stifling but safe Singapore. It's a personality preference.
The second reason is that I'll see even less of you when you're gone than I do now. The pointless comments, ineffectual in their lack of emotional impact, were really my way of saying, 'I'll miss you, please write often.'
But compared to you, I have a much hazier sense of direction in life. And yes..I don't understand this motivation of yours... I never paused to consider that I didn't. I wish I did sometimes..but that's just all the wrong reasons eh.
Because I feel you're right about that, I'll just shut up over the whole matter.
Anyways, just do me a favor for once and buy yourself some pepper spray or a tazer or whatever psychotic shit they're coming up with over there.
And thank you're mom for the hongbao. The shiny new notes make really nice bookmarks.
