Dream Catch Me

- Newton Faulkner Lyrics

Nov Weekend in KL

came back form KL yest. had a fruitful time there wif some new experiences and new things learnt.

One main thing i got out from the weekend was what P. Cox said, "Dreams are free. So stop worrying about what other people think". I guess it's true in a sense. many of us are so preoccupied with current situations that we forget to look at what is it we wanted. when we were young, we wanted so many things. one of the dreams i had was to own and fly my own airplane. but somehow along the way we lost track of wat we have been hoping for. as we grow up, we tend to put our dreams aside and conform to societal norms. but now, i was remade to think, is normal wat i want?

"If you do not change directions, you'll end up where you are heading to"

do i want to continue working for the next 30 years of my life. do i wan the life of my boss now? coz if i continue in this path, chances are, i'll end up like my bosses. money wld be good, but no time to do anything i wan.
by the time i retire, i wld be 62? by then, wld i haf the energy to do wat i wan to do?
let's do some calculations. to maintain my lifestyle wen i retire i'd probably need a minimum of $3000/mth.
that is $36k p.a. let's say i would wan to live to 80 (insyaallah), tt means i need $648k wen i retire.
that is if i decide to work to 62. 62!! however if i retire early at 55, tt means i need to save $900k.
now i have 24 years to save that amount, wic means $37.5k/yr, wic works out to $3125/mth of savings???? or i cld save $1.7k/mth n work till 62. but wat if i live past 80? then i got no more money. then i muz go back to work?

now, all that doesn't seem to be attractive, does it? so what do i do? change. Invest the only asset i have now, Time. It's been said that people do not change because they do not want to face the truth. The truth for me now is, i do not like how the future is looking for me. there are a lot of things i want to do and i want to live my old age worry-free. there are many ways this can be done, but what is the best way?

I Love You More

I LOVE YOU MORE (THAN YOU LIKE ME) lyrics THE STREETS
We haven't even started and it's almost the end

We never talked it over fact we never said anything

Two of the same kinda sorts hiding thoughts

As the small talk ebbs away the silence is awkward

You hardly even know me and I'm starting to show that

I hardly even know you but I like what I know

I want to talk about it but I quake in my skin

It'll only push you further into making decisions

You want to like me but you are likely undecided

The voice inside is always right which is why the awkward silence

Not gonna risk losing you

Which is why I'm never gonna woo-oo you



[Chorus]

I think I love you more, 

Than you like me

Although I'm never sure and maybe I should want to be blind

I think I love you more, 

Than you like me

Because this is even crossing my mind



Any other day and you'd have not looked twice

The joking went along with my roll of the dice

Purely by a chance I happened on feeling

Really confident around the place and people

You caught a no-hitter hitting winning strokes

I never am a winner, I'm a lonely bloke

Acting exciting like a man for a while

Until you realise I can act like a child

Eternal optimism is spurring me on to think

That acting on your ins like this

Might lead me to learn a secret

But I don't really know

Or why I think so

It's just a good hunch

Hunches are always right though



[Chorus]



I drew a drawing of you after last time I saw you

I never felt to draw a picture like that before

I learnt a lot about myself drawing all morning

It was absolutely shit, I'm awful at drawing



[Chorus] x 2
