I eat, sleep, drink and dream about my own ambition. I'm my own man. I am immortal. What am I talking about? Let's lay this one briefly and as gracefully as I can..
. In family politics, there would be aunties and uncles comparing their own children with their sibling's children. An Aunty may say,"You know! My son is gonna be a doctor soon! He just gained his Degree in Medical Science!". And an Uncle may say,"My youngest daughter is gonna be attaining her PHD in Psychology. I expect her to get it and not to fail me".
See, throughout this paragraph which I came up with, this is what my mum would say
,"I wouldn't expect too much from my children, but in whatever they wish to do in their career, I want them to do their best."
Back in the day, when I was a kid, I was really lost..because I didn't know what to do with my life, I didn't know what to become to be successful when the time comes to reaching Adulthood in the future. My cousin brother who I looked up to very much, had attained a full scholarship into college and now, he is working in one of the big companies in London, England. My 2 other cousin sisters, if I'm not mistaken, both of them are in the media business doing maybe advertising and stuff. And my sister is going to attain her degree by next year after her practical in Communications (Public Relations)
What do I want to be? This has been a tough question which I've been dwelling for years has now been an open door for me. I wanna be someone famous and recognized, be able to get out and be Rockstar. Is it a dream job or a past-time job? A lot of people have been throwing this question at me,"Why do you want to be a musician? Come on now, get on and be serious with your life".
Well, wouldn't it be a play-play job if I wanna become a Sound Engineer and help produce music for musicians? Of course not! I agree with terms of people getting a good job before they settle for anything risky and unpredictable, like making unexpected sale demands out of music. But hey, I've found myself clearly. I just don't want an ordinary 9-5 job. I want to prove to people in ways that would make them look at me in another perspective. I'm glad to be different amongst all of my relatives.
I want to be the cousin, nephew and son who wants to shut out certain relatives from telling me what to become than to what I want to become. See the difference? My road would show me the way someday. Yes, I get left behind and learn new things slower than any of my relatives. So what? It's about finishing the line than finishing the race anyway. So what have I got to lose? I would block away all the senseless preaching and nagging from certain relatives on how to deal with my life. This is my life that I'm dealing with and they have no rights to it. Anything is better than to become a drug addict in the streets. Like I said, 'I am my own man'
