He's so selfish, he almost never agreed on everything I said, he ignore my text and so on. But I foolishly still admire him. If only I can, I really want to stop admiring this person. Did I ever try? Yes, many times. You know there's a motivated forgetting theory in psychology where we try to forget someone or something by avoiding every conversation or trying hard not to involve or keeping in touch with the triggers that can remind us of those things. It didn't work for me.
But then I laughed at myself. I am the selfish one, he has his own life girl. He probably get hundreds text everyday. ( You guys will think I am a crazy fan, will you? Yeah I think I am) Ok so why I admire him? He's younger than me but he succeed in building "personal branding" and it's kinda hard for me. Although I don't know his personal branding right now will affect his future career or not because he's doing it as a hobby. For people who know him maybe every time I mention his name they will definitely refer to his hobby since he's so knowledgeable in it. He can clearly explain almost every questions his fans ask him about it and I can say he's inspiring his followers by what he has done. He usually record and upload it in youtube and the comment box will always filled by question "when will you upload the new video?" means people enjoy his art. Don't they? I knew it takes time. One day I asked him when and how he started to build this kinda image. He said around two years ago. He succeed on discovering what he likes, he could create somethin which is video so not only him can enjoy what he's done, he communicated it to the people so he got lots of subscribers, and he could maintain it. He got a lot of friends and maybe he got money from youtube as well. I am not gonna explain why personal branding is very important cause you guys can browse it anyway. I guess know I know what's somethin in you that keeps me admiring you and inspired by you. I wish I can at least discover what I really like and try to create somethin from it. Just like you did.

Hi there,
I am so glad to join slice of life challenge last march but I didn't really keep my commitment to post everyday. Well today I tried to write again. Just a few minutes ago all TA and STA in our school had meeting with our PYP coordinator there are important information for next academic year. Well yeah the holiday news was the greatest one. Of course, always. We gotta have around 43 days off next June to July.. Yeeaaay so excited. No no I don't plan for a fancy trip to Europe ( I wish) but imagining I can wake up every morning at my home and see my parents face more than a month will be one of the greatest gifts that God gives me. FYI now I am living away from my parents just in case you guys are wondering why I have such a simple plan for my holiday for such a long holiday. Oh right, the other news is we need to wait till the end of May to know our placement whether we'll stay with the same teacher for TA and with the same SEN student for STA or not. It was kinda sad for me because I really wanna know soon but well OK fine I can't wait and I am good at waiting you know. But here is the thing if only I can choose I really wanna stay with the SEN student I teach now although I probably, mmmmh not probably but absolutely need to make some adjustments since he is going to secondary next academic year. One important adjustment is how to adapt and communicate with not only homeroom teacher but also all teachers in secondary. The reasons why I really wanna stay with him are we already had such a strong bonding as a teacher and student, sometimes a sister and a brother, even a mother and a son. But of course in a professional way. I do know if all person has personal space to respect and he still struggle to learn about it. What if I don't get what I wish for? Well that is totally fine tho. You know people change and so does life. We can't always get what we want like we can't always be loved by the person we loved ( Meh, eh?). What we can do is to control our reaction over the changes. Will we take it to stress us out or make some plan to adjust? your life, your choice. Nobody can promise it will be easy to live the life you didn't wish for but as a human all we need to do is to try, try and try. Shakira said try everything. To be continued.. It's home time.. |
