when i was a child, i remember wishing and praying almost everyday that i would quickly grow up so that i would finally have the freedom to do the things i want to do. as a child, i thought that being a teenager or an adult (basically, just grown-ups) would be really really fun and fulfilling because i mean, who wouldn't love and enjoy freedom? being able to work, going out to chill with your friends, getting a boyfriend, being in love, getting married, having children, and earning lots of money......doesn't all of that sound good?
ever since i was a little kid, i told myself that: one day, i shall be a successful business woman, decked in a classy outfit and endowed with branded goods from head to toe, wearing sunglasses and driving my very own convertible. i shall be the happiest woman in the world then.
so that was what i always reminded and told myself each time someone prompted me to share my dream job/ambitions with them. but actually, it didn't really matter a lot which job i was going do because i never really gave a lot of thought into it. the job just had to be DECENT, worth doing, had to be something i enjoyed and loved doing, but most importantly it HAS to be well-paying. if it pays me well, nothing else really matters.
because money gives you power. money gives you the ability to splurge on everything and get anything you want. money gives you basically everything. money attracts people. (even if you can't attract anyone with your looks, you still have money to get plastic surgery.)
