post-exams is here and I think i'm strange. but yet again people are people. we have our preferences.
I packed myself with back-to-back activities: having chicken baked rice @ swensen for lunch. tried to collect my desperately needed passport. made my way to vivo. chilled @ vivo with my econsmates. attempt to watch movie @ cathey but failed to. ended up chilling @ ps macs. of course the never ending conversation. finally reaching home early to watch tokoyo drift.
although these are great. but it wasn't the best highlight of my post-exams. its the short pitstop i made @ church before hitting home to don for the night. just that chilling-cum-randomly-helping in church. I found my directions for my short holiday before the nation's call.
Its called
planning.People have all the greatest ideas and innovation but what makes us different from those historical inventors and us: detailed planning. they possess this natural tendency to just plan how to execute their ideas. Strangely but the maggie mee generation happens to lose this ability. Maybe the globalised world paid too much attention in satisfying our instant gratification desries that we lose our onus to be creative. To the point that it needs to be emphasized the government.
What went deep down into me is this: "you need to plan otherwise u will be just trying to complete more urgent stuff rather than important things."
Ouch. but my heart tells me that that's what I needed to accomplish whatever I need to. Even better to finish before my time is up. I will be proud of myself for a while but I know I didn't waste my youth away wastefully.
But weirdly, its difficult to distinguish
urgent and
important when u re planning. With the canlendar placed nicely in front. Everything seems to be equally urgent and important. hahaha. I just need to learn how to make better decisions i guess. That's part and parcel of life.
