Thinking about building my funds and then I thought...

There really has to be a time when I go on and face the music, to stop denying that everything is alright, and that I can simply do the things I want for such a long time. How did it come to this? For starters, things definitely got reset when I quit my former job and chose something closer to home. Then you realize that, compared to always being in the center of the action and attention, I am more inclined to being alone and writing things, the kind I always do these times.

Before I knew it, I reverted back to the person I once was back in my student years, in my first job, the kind of person who is silent most of the time and would be shy and more reserved. With the exception of my friends in audit, many would believe me to be a shy, reserved boring type of girl. I dont blame them. What I learned is that it surely does take a lot from me to always be the laughing stock of all my friends, and to have the reputation that isnt really me. Well, maybe a part of me. Soon, I felt all the pain from all the taunts that used to not harm me at all. There were lots of times when I just want to escape from the world and be left alone for once.

For almost a year now, this became my reality. Even in church, I would meet new friends, but then some mood would hit me and I would stop talking to them and not give any contact whatsoever. Its not their fault, really, but mine. I cant even explain in to myself it just happens. The only people I could not avoid are my family, because I practically dont have a choice. But then for a long while now I even stopped hanging out with my friends.

I could not even imagine the effect this would have on the friendship I made over the years. With the actions I did they are right to ignore me back and tell me that we wont be friends anymore, and to that effect I wont have any friends in the world. I am scared about that but I am more scared that I would just actually accept it and choose a hole in the wall as my companion. Thats just how deep I'lve become in being comfortable with being alone that it scares me. Not at the moment but in the future. What would happen then, would they keep me in total isolation, when the people I love the most leave me one by one? It would be a ifferent story if I would be the one to die first. Anyway, before this goes deeper, I would stop.

The point is, I realize that if I really want to earn enough passive income I would have to face them someday. Because, like what they say in the movies, no man is an island.

Less than a year to go before the presidential elections and he media has started a coverage frenzy on who would be the potential candidates. When I was younger I feel so hyped out whenever this period happens and even though I am too young to vote, I was still excited. Now, more than three elections later, times have changed, I have witnessed a lot of those politicians say their piece, have their chance in the limelight, be suddenly forgotten, eat their words, join a former rival group, the works. I've somehow develped an apathy towards them. Like no matter who the politicians would be, it would not make a difference. They are all one and the same. They would cheat, change sides, do some shameless advertising, all for he sake of a win. All for the sake of money. I've seen them unravel their true sides. The ones you thought were heroes were just as controversial as the villain they were trying to fight. It was all a matter of perspective. The oned who reveal the information to ...

You may have one of those things in your past. When you were young and you thought that you are free to do anything in the world. When you felt like every moment should be seized and every dream should be fulfilled. These days it can easily be described as YOLO. You know, you only live once. But then one day you wake up all grown up and have taken a few responsibilites here and there, with the wisdom enough to do better than use Yolo as an excuse. And then, on one fateful day you see the remnants of what you did in the past and just have a look of disbelief and suddenly ask yourself what really made you do it in the first place. You know, the after effects of those wild things you did when you were young and free. I happened to have that same experience today, and it was equally shocking as the last time I had it. Still, many people can consider me a late bloomer. I was right in that. In my student days, I studied like my life depended on it and literally had no time to dawdle around o...

Days 22

I am finally home and am early! It's all thanks to God. He probably planned it in advance. Well, thanks as well to my office mate Niel, who happened to live in Almar. So with all of this, a big thank you! Which gives me time to write for the day since I'm not as exhausted as I would be. Today we went bowling. It's not the typical competition bowling where I had to do my best and be nervous all the time, it's the relaxed version of bowling, where no one really cares about your score and you eat tons of food. The only score you'ld care about is your own, and I have actually done pretty well when I'lm not nervous. Only that, I can't help but remember the good bowling memories when we were in a tournament and everyone has to do their best. I've seen so good techniques that I feel like no one in my team can actually compare to our usual players back then. A strike for them is usual, most of the time, they strike or spare. It's not unheard of to get double...
