Regrets. No regrets and move forward!


regrets always come at the end. cliche, eh? but that’s how it is.
i wish i had discovered my passion in life earlier. when i was in college, i never knew what i really want to do in life, as in which field i want to work for the rest of my life. since it was very common for us, indonesian students, to take business as our major, so i just go with the flow. i took business as my major, studying specifically in finance and management. 
now, being a graduated student of a major that i don’t have passion about, i feel so empty. i know that i wouldn’t be enjoying the work i have to do later on. i wouldn’t be looking forward going to work. it would be just a mundane day that i have to go through everyday. a very same cycle of boredom. a cycle of an “obligation” in life. a cycle to just keep myself “alive” and “being properly feed”. 
if i could turn back the time, i surely know what i want to do! 100% or even 110% SURE! cause now i know what i really want to do in life, for the rest of my life. it wouldn’t be just a mundane day, it wouldn’t just be a same cycle of boredom, it wouldn’t be just a cycle of “obligations” in life, and it wouldn’t be just a cycle of keeping myself “alive” and “being properly feed”! everyday would be anEXTRAORDINARY DAY, it would be a cycle of EXCITEMENT, it would be a time to DISCOVERED SOMETHING NEW, and it would be a LIFETIME EXPERIENCE! cause i know that taking Criminal Investigation/Crime Scene Evidence Analysis/Criminal Justice as my major would keep my SPIRIT ALIVE! i know i would looking forward to go to work everyday. how i wish i could turn back the time or it would be more logical to say “how i wish i had discovered my passion in life earlier
now, it has all been too late. all that is left now is regrets. but you know what, rather than just regretting of all the things that have happened, i would rather just strive to make the best of it. who knows, someday in the future i might get a chance to go back to school and pursue this dream job.

Dear John

Just finished reading Dear John by Nicholas Sparks.
This was the first novel I've really been shed a lot of tears on.
Learn the true meaning of Love.
I was really enjoyed reading the book.
Some people might say that it's kind of depressing, but somehow (just being too mellow), I really like this kind of book, an inspirational book.
A book from where I can really learn something valuable, even though it might cost my tears :p
A book that could make me want to do something extraordinary, something unthinkable.

Few of my favorite quotes from the book:

"Happiness is contagious."

"True love means that you care for another person's happiness more than your own, no matter how painful the choices you face might be."

"Doing the right thing wasn't easy."

I am really looking forward to read more books by Nicholas Sparks. I really found him to be one of the best novel's writers these days, who isn't just offering great & easy-reading unpredictable stories, but as well as teaching us some valuable morals in life.
