That blue Monopoly card - Chance.
...take a trip along the Board Walk. Advance to Mayfair
Bah..
Did we take our chances in life? I know I didn't. Looking back over the years, I was blessed with lots of chances which if taken, could have significantly changed my life for the better. But I was too naive and foolish back then, I was content with the way life was. I was not focused on what I wanted, and how I should shape my future, and it wasn't only just the academics. Just the mundane lifestyle of returning home from school, glued to computer games, building a wall between me and my parents and friends too. 6 years of that and it leads me to where I am now. And that's basically the past and I hope I can learn from it.
Every chance in life would presumably mean an alternate path to take. And most of the time, it's pretty obsure compared to the nicely pebble-paved road that we've been taking which tends to make one overlook it. Thanks to time, I could no longer walk back to that particular fork and pick the other route. I wonder what would have happened if I took my chances with a different secondary school, a polytechnic or doing my education in UK with my cousin. Would I be fretting over a seat in uni if I took my chance to achieve better grades despite being satisfied just passing without effort? Maybe I would be happily attached now if I took my chances instead of just waiting. Or communication in my family would have been much better if I decided to open up to them.
Anyway, next chance I see, I'm definately going to take it into consideration and psyche myself into going for it - which probably is studying abroad.
Still on the topic of chances, and although I had my fair share, I wish I can be given several more. Right now I wish that the Ministry of Education could give me a 2nd chance to make a comeback in life. I long for a girl that is willing to give me a chance, to prove myself worthy of her love and could provide more than just security. And on the lighter side of things.. maybe my dad could give me a chance just to drive his car, alone.
Back to camp in a few hours and I'm already getting sick of it. Like a wild bird caged up again.. having to stay in for a week with so many stuffs to settle. ARrrGh, I want to be free.. and happy like bird!
