And I'm like, Whoo! I mean, there's always a first for everything right? I didn't even feel sad. My first reaction was like, I failed? Awesome. (yeah, I'm weird.)
But I'm thinking I gotta start studying now. There will be no whoohoo-ing or awesomeness when I fail SPM. *touchwood!*
So now people start to ask me what I wanna do when I grow up. Im thinking anything physics-related is out of the question.
You know, when I was younger and people ask,
What do you wanna be when you grow up?
Most little kids would spout off some common, lame, road-always-taken kinda thing. Some popular ones would be the teacher (yawn), the lawyer (yawn), and the doctor (double triple quadruple yawn).
Me? I took the road less travelled. I said,
"I wanna be a horse!"
Don't ask me why. Kids say the dumbest things.
As we get older, we realize that teachers, lawyers, doctors or horses aren't the only jobs in the world.
The ones who wanted to be teachers now want to be lecturers. The doctors evolve into surgeons. The lawyers become...hmm. What do lawyers become? Judges?
Me? I'm still kinda stuck with the same blank look on my face. Ever since my parents explained to me that I can't be a horse, or lion, or any other kind of any animal, I was lost. They asked me again:
So what do you want to be when you grow up?
Silence. Stress. Look at mum.
I don't know!
And all the adults go
Awww...isn't she cute...
Well, now that I'm older, it's not so cute anymore.
And now I have people suggesting all these hard-lined careers where I have the 'joy' of working 30 hours a day while earning six-figure salaries. Frankly, this scares me. If this would be the case, I wouldn't even have time to spend my money, whereby it will accumulate and gradually making me a ka-zillionaire. Shortly after which I will fall victim to a kidnapping that requires my vast fortune as ransom.
Nono. No thank you. I'd rather go back to being a horse. Black Beauty was a horse, and look how she turned out. (She didn't die, did she?) I know the spider from Charlotte's Web died, but hey, I never wanted to become a spider.
