Countdown to a special day

A few days from now, another number to my age will be added, of course its plus one. hey! I'm proud to be 22 years old. In this 22 years of my life I am to happy to announce that in this age of mine, I have come to be more matured in dealing with life's challenges. 1 year nursery, 2 years kindergarten, 6 years elementary, 4 years high school and 4 years college. To sum them up, I have spent 17 years of my life studying about the real world. Every thing is based on books and testimonials of my teachers/professors. It did somehow enhanced my knowledge and some of it is still in my heart and mind, and some of them not. after that 17 years, everything changed; from the routine of waking up everyday to rush to school and sit all the day in a classroom that is filled with kids the same age as you are and being bullied because your are much smaller than them, now everything is different. Waking up everyday would still be the same of course but now I have to wear make up everyday just to make sure that I don't look stupid when I get to work. The way I talk is much more different from before, I speak a lot of things regarding my field of work and money has also been one of the topics always being discussed. People in supermarkets and Department Stores look up on you now. Not like before that they would always think that you don't have money to purchase their product.

Many things has happened to my life and I am thankful for it since it helped me become a better person and evolved me into a more professional and understanding woman. I have learned the value of being humble in everything you do and say. It is not always that people would be all ears hearing you boast about your career and promotion. I have also realized that not everyone you call friend are true, there are some that would call you friend whenever they need anything specifically assignments. But when everything is done you would just be a mere stranger to that person once again. IT is also not frequently that people you call friends would understand you unless they have experienced it and forced their minds to open up.

Another year will come for me and I pray that I would be able to succeed in my field of work and be able to reach for my dreams. My birthday wish is just simple... its to be more humble, patient and understanding. Because with this values, I know I will be able to achieve my dreams.
