Dreaming
I always ask myself (during revision and slaving over tutorials), what in the world am I doing this for? Which boils down to what am I seeking in life.
This brings about my various ambitions that I thought of in my short 22 years of life.
I would like to be a TV travel guide, where the television companies actually pays for your holidays in different countries. The chance to travel always appeal to me cause being in a middle class family limits my chance to go overseas (Sentosa and JB doesn't count).
I would like to retire before 50 and open a cafe in some quiet corner of Singapore. I like coffee but there isn't much cafes serving good coffee here. They recently had a change of barista at the Spinelli of Novena Square to someone that pales in comparison.
Dreams are nice to have, but I have to face the reality. I can't be a TV travel guide because I don't look good and have too boring a personality that attracts television audience. Retiring before 50 seems like a longshot, because I don't forsee myself earning that much in the future being an engineer.
I guess that's why they were call dreams.
