Exactly how long is 21 years? I once read from somewhere that your life isn't measured by how many days you've lived, rather by the events that make an impact in your life.
Life's been good for me and I really can't ask for more. I do have everything I need, though not necessarily everything I want but that's alright.
I've been blessed with a loving family and awesome friends. Speaking of friends, isn't it weird that they come and go at certain times in your life? some end up in arguments, others just seem to have died down. I do, however hope that they are all doing well.
Never have I thought of myself to be someone of any importance whatsoever. But I must say that I've been extremely lucky, so much to the extent that I've become this spoilt brat.
If I could select one birthday wish for myself, I would like to be a better person. Someone who is a high achiever because I am aware that I owe my happiness and success to my family, friends and relatives. I won't let them down for sure.
Mum once told me that if I'm someone rich, I would be a generous but spendthrift person. Honestly, that doesn't sound bad. I just need some savings plan and investments. I believe that wealth should be shared.
I guess my words don't contain much power at this point of time. Like how I predicted the rise of certain stock markets and the singapore economy having to tap into more of our reserves very soon. Well, no one really cares about what I have to say because I'm still a nobody. I want to be somebody. Oh and I still strongly hold onto my 'buy gold' believe after the recession. Should have invested in gold last year when prices were down. I don't really have the funds anyway. Haha!
I've always been interested in politics, stock markets and the economy. I remember having my first SGX account at the age of 18 but I was unable to trade stocks because the legal age is 21. I guess I'm qualified to do so now, but its not really the time to trade. I could trade other stuff though. Also, I've been following this recession very closely just like how I did so much research about the 911 and the death of princess diana. Topics like these seem to interest me. A few night ago I was reading about conspiracy theories about president kennedy. I hope I'm normal Haha!
Anyway, a very happy birthday to myself, I still feel like a kid though. I mean, the things I talk about are still rather kiddy oh well.. But some of the friends I mix around are like that as well. Tsk.
Much love,
myself
