A New Day in the Life of ME!
-
Ladies and Gents,
This vapid announcement is to mark the conclusion of my university education. I have, as of last friday (May 5th 2006), concluded my final reports, essays, and examinations.
3 years I spent in this godforsaken institute, learning absolutely nothing but how to lie, cheat, and ingratiate myself with professors who were arrogant, condescending and absolutely clueless. Days spent researching esoteric material that noone other than a few academics would ever show interest. I consider the last 3 years a black hole in my past, and can only be glad that it served as a stepping stone for bigger and greater deeds in the future.
With NS, I am now 25 years old. Half my life has been sacrificed on the altar of higher education so that I can enter the fast track on the promotion path. I now must look forward to another 25 years of toil, back-breaking labor and constant competition if I want to retire with a Manhattan Apt, a trophy wife, and an exclusive club membership. Then I have a few years to enjoy my reward before I get Alzheimers, or cancer.
Life is grand don't cha think?
Cheers to one and all.

Even if you continue another 25 years of back-breaking labor, constant competition and general servitude there is no guarantee of a Manhattan Apt, a trophy wife, and an exclusive club membership.Originally posted by kivichio:....

My dear friend, do I go around kickin the s*** out of people who are lying hurt on the ground? Why burst my bubble? My happiness is grounded in my material comfort. My limited experience has shown me while happiness is possible without oodles of cash, that same oodle of cash does bring a joy of her own.Originally posted by DriftingGuy:Even if you continue another 25 years of back-breaking labor, constant competition and general servitude there is no guarantee of a Manhattan Apt, a trophy wife, and an exclusive club membership.
My fantasy. 55 Years Old, A corner office overlooking the New York Cityscape (or maybe the Singapore CBDscape), a grand mahogany desk, berating my cringing underlings while my hot young secretary is underneath the table suckin my... oops, went a bit too far there.

u might succeed in being a sugar daddy, but when u're 80 and penniless, who's gonna be there? -
You make life sound so boring.

Thank you for your comments. But I'm really honestly not trying to be insulting or anything, but I'm not sure I have interpreted your words correctly.Originally posted by newmanmback:noob...who dun know how to apple polish from parents to lecturers to boss...and like u can predict yr future so well? scali forever poor (because other better like than him like minister so he ranting they grad u also grad)....poor and good healthy for 100 years (yet keng tell ppl u here pain there pain sick ill lah) is eternal suffering...well come to reality...to me u just hatched from an egg.
Let me paraphrase and you tell me if I got the gist of it right.
"You young kid. Everyone can kiss ass, what makes you special. You can't predict your future. You may end up poor because a minister graduated at the same time as you. Being poor but healthy is eternal suffering (???) Welcome to reality you young know-nothing."
If this is correct, then my response is:
1) I'm 24 going on 25. Young to some, old enough for others.
2) I'm hardly bragging about kissing ass, but rather complaining. Never thought it was something that made me "special."
2) True, I can't predict my future, but I can plan for it.
3) Yes I may end I up poor, but I fail to see how a minister can affect that.
4) Being poor but healthy yet feigning illness is eternal suffering? I don't understand why you made this statement.
5) Yes, welcome to reality, thats why I was complaining in the first post.
Some may have misinterpreted my words to be bragging about my life when I was letting off a little steam and actually complaining.
But who wouldn't want to have a little sugar in the future.
A little luvin never hurt anyone. -
Hey, Howard Marshall did alright with Anna Nichole Smith. Plus she really loved him, honest to god. It wasn't the half of the $1.6 billion estate that was the basis of attraction. ABSOLUTELY NOT.Originally posted by ^tamago^:materialistic sia...
u might succeed in being a sugar daddy, but when u're 80 and penniless, who's gonna be there?
And by 80 I'll be dead. If you call the little fantasy scenario I pictured up meaningless and boring, I'll like to try what you think is exciting. I'm not sure my poor ticker could take it at 55.

u think the majority of the ppl are like him? i think u're on cloud nine. be realistic, come back to earth soon.Originally posted by kivichio:Hey, Howard Marshall did alright with Anna Nichole Smith.

in short...who cares about u?

EXACTLY. My words and thoughts exactly... who cares about me. Couldn't have phrased it better myself. Thank you, I was waiting for which enlightened individual to first make this observation.Originally posted by newmanmback:in short...who cares about u?
I wanted some comments on how others felt upon graduating.But I guess the conversation turned to my life goals and admittedly materialistic ambitions.
But I just want to correct one small itty bitty little detail. The first post was a rant, not a rave as some people think. Meaning it was me b****in not bragging. I guess my poor writing style meant people interpreted it in a different direction then it was intended. Hell, I'm a egotist and I think I'm all that, and eventually I know I will be wealthy (its just a matter of the degree of affluence) but in this case, it was to blow off steam.
I love all you guys.

let's do synchronised eye rolling.... -
I think kivichio is an intellectual person. For that I admire you.

this post of yours is also egoistic.....coz i still dun know a huha f u ck u tryin to say...so u git it now? u dun giv comment on yourself in public forums...and u hav to accept that u can only be judged by others if utruely wan to be judged by posting silly shit here...now i very free infact can entertain u play co ck if no i giv a f ickin care boyOriginally posted by kivichio:EXACTLY.
