"You can't wait forever. Do something and make it happen."

I set to be the best that I can be but I tend to stop doing things halfway. So much words and so little actions from me to myself and the only person to blame is.. Yeah you know, me. I know that perhaps my life is supposed to go the other way around but disappointment creeps in once in a while and I'll question why haven't I complete a certain "achievement" bla bla bla. I don't know if I'm supposed to lower my expectations and work with what I have now or what? Scratch that. On second thoughts, that's what I will have to do - Work with what I have. I choose not to lower any expectations till I try completing it even if it takes me 5 years to do. Will be 30 years old by then but heck, better late than never. And nope, shall not write down the list of things I wanna complete but I will do so when I get some real action going.

At the end of the day, I'm doing this for myself and no one else.

If you want better, go get better.

At 25 and I think I really need to put my shit together. I feel like I've been spending way more than I should have and that my savings are not increasing by how much I envisioned it to be. I pretty much told myself that right after my Vietnam trip is over (yes I just came back from Phuket with family heheheh), I'll go on a travel hiatus till 2017 June. In sha allah I'll be able to graduate by then! It's always been one of my "goals" before I do the next 2 crazy things in life. 1) Solo Trip. 2) Get married.

I would love to finally put on braces in 2016 and that before I leave for my solo trip, I'll have perfect straight teeth that it gonna be as white as snow white. Hahahaha. Just gotta pray hard that I will remove my wisdom tooth with ease, I have 4 to remove fyi, and that I will be okay after a week. I can't be bothered to remove 2 at a time and then suffer for one more time. :(

 In a nut shell, here's what my life plan is gonna be like:
  1. To have my braces on and hope to have it removed in 18 mths = June 2017.
  2. To pass all my modules and graduate with a Bachelor in 18 months = June 2017
  3. To go crazy and do one hell of a good solo trip upon graduation = November 2017
  4. To do a CO2 laser treatment to remove my acne scars = March 2018
  5. To khatam quraan omg please before I get married = June 2018
  6. To in sha allah have a beautiful solemnization with my Sayang = August 2018
  7. To own a place called mine that is clean and lovely in all aspect = December 2019
  8. To have major renovations done for the home = December 2020
  9. To have mini Shiqs and Zaki in sha allah hahahahaha so scary so much blood = December 2020.
  10. To own a car or a black Birkin before I turn 35.
Of course, I can only sketch and work towards all that la. But at the end of the day, God will decide and I'm praying hard that God and I will have some kinda telepathy and that we'll be in the same path. Hahahaha.  The year have yet to end but I hope that when 2016 comes, I will be more discipline. Read somewhere that what I need is 3-6 months in order to have that kinda commitment and it'll be easier to move on from then on. For 2016, all I have to do is concentrate on building my savings more before I start mini investing. Haiya idk la, I've just been reading on articles this whole year and I thought I should try it out when I'm young. We shall see...

And yes, life does not end when I get the #10. I have pretty much budgeted on how much we need to put aside for the major renovations, if we should proceed with loans and if yes how much, the amount to set monthly for our kids primary and secondary education, the budget for our holidays and many more. Won't be covering all these in one post but I will when I feel like it. :P

Till then lovelies, plan for your future. x
