Somehow this strongly reminds me of myself. I'm not the only child, but I am one of the most successful child in the family, whether it concerns studies, sports or arts. As you already know, I haven't sat for my SPM yet, but it seems like people are already expecting me to excel in it and become what my parents and family want me to be. But I myself haven't decided on what I want to be. I don't know yet. And like you, it has become a burden and a bother. Sometimes I wish I could just stop and do what I want to do, not what others want. Really it's a blessing to be born into a wealthy family who can provide me with almost anything I ask for, but the thing that I want the most seems so hard to be fulfilled.
I'm glad you have such a great friend :) I hope there'll be an existence that can have a big impact on my perspective of life too, haha.
You know eza, your comment touched me. I remembered back then when I was in my rebellious years, all I think was why do I have to carry people's hopes and I cursed every single phone call that asked me about my results. But that years had became history.
You'll find something. I know you would. This e-mail came to me when I was 17, sooner or later, you'll experience this "changes of your life perspective" before you even knew it.
Let's promise each other to keep striving hard, so we won't have any regrets in our later days. Of course we can't see the future but what God gives us today is a preparation of what we might be getting then.. It all comes back to everything happens for a reason... ne eza? X)
I'd like to strive hard, I think, because I'd like a taste of real happiness. we can't see the future but what God gives us today is a preparation of what we might be getting then I like the sound of that. It was a great consolation :) Thanks ya InsyaAllah we'll both achieve success in everything we do ;)
