when my mom suddenly call to tell me my uncle passed away..
went back straight after school and attended the wake.
i expected it to be boring.
it turned out to be boring at 1st , as there was no one.
than came all my cousins , nephews and other relatives
i sat with my elder cousins , about 4 of them.
they were talking about how good being a taxi driver is. i was listen attentively and it does sound good. really.
than my uncle came, he flew back from L.A. he hold me to another table , and told me many things. i heard alot about him from the others too. we need tickets to travel to other countries. he dont, he have a diamond blah blah blah card. which gives him 1st hand piority. even if there's no space , it'll have a space. lol powerful person.
he told me that , being what others want to be wont give u such luxury. his wife drives a Mercs, M series. 5000c like omg!~? 1c = $2 5000c = $10,000 road tax
it's true anyways , we should aim to do what we want. and strive to achieve it. i use to think badly about going to L.A at december.. now , i've got a new mindset. im gona go , and learn , and probably work for my uncle.
imagine. walk into the airport , throw your #)@!(#+@(#!@ diamond card at the person. and fly wherever you want. it's like a credit card but you only use it on plane flights. u come and go as and when u like. no booking. you can ask for an additional seat. even his kids dont take economic class, they take business class. omg , they are 5 yearold and 3 yearold pls.
yet the other hand , the rest talks about jobs like making spectacles could giv you a good $3000 a month and so~ well , it sounds attractive for us, yes. but look out man. there's more to it.
he told me this before i left.
what you see is what you get. believing is seeing, believe in yourself.
