Found this in the drafts of my phone. I usually have these moments when it's traffic and I'm on my way home or walking to my dad's office after work. After a long day, when the noise and buzz in the office is gone, I find some silence and get to listen to myself.
8/26: In the homeroom class when I was a high school freshman, we were asked to share our dreams. I was not very far from who I am now -- I said that I wanted to be happy. I didn't have any specifics because I didn't want to make plans involving other people because I had no control over them. Looking back, I realize that I really never made plans or dreams for myself at all. I now understand why this caught our guidance counselor's attention. It was a bad move and now it can't be undone. I had been moving aimlessly in no particular direction these 26 years. What I CAN DO is to start making plans. To start figuring out what I want for myself.
And I'm happy that I've started doing this...baby steps at least. Ultimate dream would be to work in Google -- but I know that would entail a LOT of sacrifice but i'm not sure if that's something I'm willing to give. The rest are in my bucket list. :)
