Assalamualaikum. Hi.
So, most of people nowadays are so into travelling, backpacking, those lasak activities, and other 'cool and hipster' stuff right now. In all honesty, I don't mind it, really. The thing that bugs me the most is that the fact when some of these people thought when people like me didn't participate in those stuff, all they think about was "...you're not living your life", "..,get your ass off", "...you're so not cool", and some just stared at me like I was the most wanted criminal of all time.
DUDE. GET YOUR ASS OFF YOUR HEAD, IT'S NOT A HAT.
For some of you who might not know some things about me, I did all of that earlier that y'all (just some of them, but really I don't brag about it before). It's just that, I just love it even more doing those stuff with my family. We went camping like almost once a month, kayaking in the middle of the sea, went for a hike at Gunung Ledang (just a brief of time. Didn't go all the way up). I went wall climbing once and it was horrible but I love it haha. Flying fox, got dumped in the mud, and all of that. I did those. Those moments are great. It changes now.
I was living my life, and still am. Y'all need to understand one thing - we all have different priorities in our lives. My ultimate ones at the moment are my parents and my studies. You gotta admit that your parents are getting old, their children are not at home, and they're getting lonely. But of course, who doesnt want to go jalan-jalan outside your own country, kan? But let's face it. There's nothing wrong if I don't go travelling and doing those awesome activities blabla. THERE'S NOTHING WRONG, REALLY. My family is my home. My family is where I can travel anywhere even when I'm home. Seeing their smiles because they get to see me is my world.
I do get jealous when other people experience stuff I like to do. Yang lasak ones la. Because deep inside, I'm a boy. Haha. But, like I said, other matters weigh more than before and go all the way up in my hierarchy of life right now.
Of course, it's a nice feeling to see people enjoy themselves. It gets me inspired. But just dont belittle other people who dont do things like you did. Our goals are different. Our priorities are different. I've set my own terms with what Im gonna do with my life and when is what.
Some of you might not concur with what I'm saying, but let's just agree to disagree.
