B.E.D

I was suppose to blog about this a few months ago I think. I got too carried away enjoying life that I've forgotten about my blog. Therefore, let's start with my visit to Bread Espresso Dessert with one of my closest and craziest friend.

My friend's latte. Beautiful latte art.

I love caffeine

I like how they brew their coffee. Milky, soft foam and it's definitely a good spot for chilling out. Coffee sold are not too expensive, definitely not over-priced and they serve delicious sandwiches as well as mouth watering dessert. 

Did not took any shot of this gorgeous place but please do check out their Facebook page or just google around for more reviews about B.E.D

In conclusion, I like this place kay. :D  Thanks for reading! 

Birth Order

Birth order and this so called syndrome known as "middle child syndrome" sounds pretty appealing to me. Being born as a middle child like exactly the middle child, I found articles like that pretty relate-able and accurate. As a middle child (personally) I've never felt so much of love from my parents. I said not so much but not entirely none at all. Of course there are times I was jealous of both my sisters. For example . . . 

I only get rewarded only when I work hard for it . Getting good results etc. ( Okay, fair enough. Parenting done right! ) My sisters need not work hard for it more like when they demand for it they get it. I don't particularly  hate my sisters for that but as a CHILD you can't help but harbour a tiny bit of jealousy towards your siblings. I don't pity myself for that, never. That just kept me working harder and maybe this is what set me and my siblings apart. Nonetheless I was grateful that I'm more independent and reliable because of it. Though I don't really get appreciated personally by my own family members that much, I don't really mind. I felt the sense of responsibility after all to carry out my duties as an elder sister and a younger sister. Being born middle makes me get along with people well and I'm always the middle person within argument between my sisters. I have really great friends and they appreciate me for who I am. As a person, I felt like I grew a lot and part of it was because the way I was treated and raised made me who I am today. I'm blessed being born as a middle child! 

Countdown

Counting down the days
To my last day of work
I'll definitely miss my colleagues

:(

will be doing a lot of thinking whether to pursue which course.
Marine Technology or Early Childhood education?

Life has its ups and downs
I try to look at people's good quality
Which made me feel a lot better
Upon reflecting myself
I realize
I'm more than blessed
Though sometimes I can't help but rant
But I'm sure that's because
I'm Human

Hahaha

Lame :)

Life after high school / SPM

Life isn't really that bad after SPM/leaving high school. I've started and quitted several jobs. Yes, call me a princess or whatsoever. Haha. I just simply wouldn't like wasting my time or spending time doing things I don't enjoy or depressing me. I only have 3 months of holiday and it's not long to be honest. Time passes as fast as light and Chinese New Year is approaching soon. I'm now currently working as a waitress. It's been around a week now since I've started work. Awesome colleagues though I'm kinda like the only female (youngest). Everyone was really friendly so I don't exactly hate nor really like my job. It was okay, okay enough for me to spend my time 'beneficially' and learn/experiencing something new. I need to this to finalise my course choice. I have to say I'm glad I'm job-hopping around. It made me realise that I'm not fit for any hospitality lines like waitress-ing. Hahahaha.

The More You Learn, the More You Earn

The more you learn, the more you earn.

I came across this phrase when I was randomly googling about "education" and it's privileges. After leaving high school, I'm struck with questions. Does holding a degree gives you more privilege in society? Is it worth spending thousands of dollars for your course? I do believe spending money for education is good. Basic education up to secondary level is necessary for you to survive in society. Knowledge itself wouldn't bring you far, the skill of yours in playing your "game" of life matters most. 

Are you the studious type? 

Many believed that by obtaining a degree it will secure a stable career and life. Of course not all of them but I was once one of them. I'm on my holidays now while waiting for my results therefore I  tend to think and reflect a lot when I have spare time. The current society made me question, do I really have to study my ass off just to live a stable life in future? Then and again, I started finding part-time jobs looking around and observing people around me to find the right answer. Take this as an example : Working as a clinic helper. 

You get hands on medical experiences without needing to pay for it. Does working in a clinic makes any difference with a medical student interning? Please excuse my shallow opinion on it. Of course a medic/ pharmacist interning learned more about stuff like this. Based on my friend's experience, I've just came to a conclusion that based on working experience, you can just be as "skilled" as any other graduates from the medical field. Memorising isn't hard, you just need to put in a lot of effort. I've not been in the shoes of a pharmacist but I'm quite sure that their field of work revolves in knowing and understanding the usage of drugs. Bring one person who's a high school graduate and make him memorise tones of drug names, I guess he would be as useful as a pharmacist as well eh? excuse me please, but I do give credibility and admiration to those who learn in depth on their field and certified drug practitioners etc. The inner curious me just couldn't help but question why do we have to study and spend so much money on specialise fields like this where as skills like this can be learned and practised and it's pretty subjective. 

But the level and degree of education is definitely a privilege. Definitely having a degree certification takes you to another whole new level compare to others with no special qualifications. On the surface, having a degree looks better compare to those without one.It looks more convincing and promising to employers. It's easier to filter their choices of people based on your degree of education. Of course, I prefer people looking at the big picture and see the inner ability/talent of each and everyone. Takes a lot of time but worthwhile. It's useless being educated when you're not even capable in living skills.BUT, I admire people who study a lot and make an effort in life. Being successful is not easy. Life is subjective. Depending on what type of person you are, play the game well. We see people living a wealthy life without depending on education but skills solely. 

All in all, it depends on how you tackle your life. 

Have the money? I suggest you study and learn everything you want in life

Financially tight? Study part time and work. Or anything, really. Doesn't matter. If you're capable, anything is possible.

The more you learn, the more you earn. Learning ( in my opinion ) doesn't mean that you have to go through college/university in order to be educated. Learning involves the process of experiencing and venturing into new stuff which helps you gain knowledge and skill in life. Studying and learning is two different things. Learning shows more value and it feels "fresher" compare to study. 

Therefore,  " the more you learn, the more you earn" .
