- 1. i have little/no interest in the banking/finance/investment/law/antitrust sector. which is really sad, cos there's nothing else dad talks about these days. he lives and breathes the darn thing.
- 2. parents subconciously/unknowingly but inexplicably always think they know what's best for their child, even if its not in their interests. (okay, financial stability not counted in this sense) then again, since when did anyone know whats best for themselves?
- 3. parents also have a very nasty habit of pinning their unfulfilled wishes and dreams onto their kids (whether they like it or not). i.e. dad was speaking jargon of billions, trillions, silicion valleys, Qtel, j.b morgan and an entire encyclopaedia of who's whos designed with the purpose of just showing me how ignorant i am, and how much i'm losing out on this and that yadayada. how's that for reverse psychology.
4. i gotta find something i'm good at. i always wondered KNOW i'm destined for something big. (even if its unconventional) my only desperation now is that i'll never find it in time, and it won't measure up to expectations. (this, should be outta the window. then again, you probably've never met dad.)
future,
