Dear Anyone Else Who Feels The Same,
Last night I was at this Halloween Bash - totally awesome!! The haunted house were pretty scary, my friend was holding my hand and leading the way by following the couple in front of us. Then the girl behind me ended up hugging me, she was that scared! And her male friend (I think) was hiding behind her, she kept apologising for hugging me as we don't know each other. Happened twice, different girl!
As we watched the Halloween Show, I was receiving messages from a friend who was having a career crisis, she works in a modelling agency but like me wasn't really progressing and not earning much money. It's the Job Satisfying vs Earning Big Bucks dilemma. After giving her encouraging words the crisis turned into ranting.
Completely, generalising here. But for some reason, in the Asian society females are given this pressure to get hitched and start a family because we have expiration date. I have now had two male (Asian) say to me to stop wasting time as I will soon be thirty and therefore won't be able/difficult to start a family. Not once did I say to them I wanted to start a family. Sometimes, I just want to slap them for their ignorance to reality. Even if I stop wasting time, how do I go finding my Mr Right? Ever think of that, punk! Getting hitched under pressure is plain pointless. Again, this is all generalisation, probably exist everywhere.
What if I do get married...? Do I end up working in the job that satisfies me?
Most important lesson learnt in this overseas experience is not to lose yourself, don't give up on yourself because when you do, others will as well.
Self believe! x
