On this day of your life, Jiali, we believe God wants you to know...
... that work begins when you don't like what you are doing.
Little children can do the most amazing things with such joy and fun. You were little once too, and knew how to turn everything into a game. So, turn your work into a game, and you will find joy and satisfaction in it. What are some ways you can start being playful with work?

I. Say. Ignorance. Is. Bliss.
Truth be told, i always find myself wishing that certain hurtful truths would somehow be kept far, far away from me. Haha. But wishes are not always granted.
I've a storytotell, and i think it's something very erm, personal in a way i guess, but when i was young, i used to make the same 3 birthday wishes every year. Somehow i really believed that if i listened to my parents and did my homework at school and be nice to my siblings at home, my wishes would really come true.
Silly. But yea, looking back at those wishes, I’m a little glad now that some of them didn’t come true. Cause one of my usual 3 wishes would be to be with the person i had a crush on forever. And that person changes every year.
... I used to have a lot of dreams and fantasies. But sadly, reality crushed them. Hard.
Oh and i remember what i used to do last time during christmas eves, too. My brother and I would hang our socks up onto the cupboard's knobs in our room, and made a wish in front of our parents before we went to bed. Then the next day when we woke up, we would find presents in our socks. Toys, swan 24-colour colour pencils, chewable vitamin Cs..
Few years later, as i grew older, i just knew it in my heart that my parents were the ones giving us presents. I didn’t catch them doing it, i just knew it. And i just stopped believing.
Like the moment when the lightning strikes and the entire room is lit up so brightly that you could see every single item in it ever so clearly.
That’s when reality sets in.

Still, there's a tiny, very tiny part of me that doesn't wanna let go on my childhood belief just yet. Well, that tiny part of me now wishes that, i'll miraculously do well in my coming exams. And not cry over it when it's over.
