It was Elementary school.
I went to a friend's house. Doni. He had a dog. A big One.
But it was not important.
Whats more important, ... his mother offered me gado gado.
And I don't like vegetables.
So I politely refuse the offer.
... "Ngga usah Tante, makasih ... "
... "Aaa ... Ngga suka sayur yaaaa ???"
--- Gosh! How in the world could she knew ??? A Mother instinct ? :p ---
In one of the visit to Doni's house, I remember watching a movie ...
Its a family movie about a monster ... a purple monster ...
I never actually finished watching it ... so don't remember the storyline
however, there was this song in the movie that keeps hanging and playing in my head ..
... "Want , I want, I want purple people eater ....
just recently (i googled it a few seconds ago) ... i realized that the lyrics was wrong ...
it should be : one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater ... :p
Initially I want to relate the song with the website that i've just saw.
but since the lyrics was wrong, I will cut the crap and just share the points that I think will be useful to anyone who is currently confuse or don't know what you want in life ... or ...
simply to help you discover what your dream is....
Seven Steps To Find Out What Your Dream Is
All you need is a pen, a notebook and some time to yourself. Try to spend a lot of time thinking and brainstorming as many ideas as possible. The more time you spend thinking and writing, the more you’ll get out of it.
1. Cast your mind back to your childhood.
What did you enjoy doing? Think about your favourite toy, game, book and place.
What made you totally happy?
What were you best at at school and at home?
Jot the answers to these questions down.
2. Now look at your present life.
Really spend time noticing how things made you feel. For example, recently I realised the smell of oranges makes me feel happy so next time I’m feeling down all I need to do is peel an orange and I’ll feel much happier.
What makes you happy now? Think of as many things, places and activities as you can.
Write it all down.
3. Now imagine you’ve got a death sentence on your head. Only one year to live.
Sorry, but what would you do in that final year? Where do your priorities lie?
4. Now think back to your childhood again and think about any negative comments or reactions to you doing the thing or things that you enjoyed. Write them down and ask yourself if they’re still holding you back from achieving your dream.
5. Is there an excuse you use for not following your dream? Then think about what you’d do if
you weren’t so old/hard up/fearful etc. Just insert your excuses here. Write down the answers.
6. Now think about the things that you loved doing or that make you happy and seek them out. Treat yourself to a walk in the countryside, a visit to an art gallery, a day at home reading, wear your best clothes and enjoy your own company. Write a list of all the things that make you happy and all the things that you’d like to do more often and do them. Spend time by yourself and do some of these fun activities. Have fun.
7. Now take some time to reread your answers and think about what you’ve learnt. Is there any common thread or idea coming out of these?
