My dad says I am old. Fine. I don't feel so old though despite turning 26 yesterday because a lot of things are still the same with me. I still like wearing Chuck Taylors. I still look forward to new songs or videos of Korean boyband Super Junior. (They have a new music video by the way.) I still daydream. And I am still not so sure about what I want to become. I mean, I think I like where I am now but in terms of having a goal over a ten year period, I really don't have one.

When I was in High School, I was always trying to picture how I'd be after college. But now that I am done with college and part of the work force, I am always just thinking about the present. I would like to think there is nothing wrong with that because often when you get too excited about the future, you tend to overlook what you have at the moment. However, I feel that sometimes, maybe I also need to plan and think about tomorrow. I just can't find time to do it. I can't because I am scared of it. I am scared that if I plan and still not get to where I want to be, then I'd feel really bad about planning because it would seem like a waste of time.

Maybe I need a circumstance to force me to think about my future or how I would be like ten years from now. Or maybe I just need a break from work to think about that, like a one week vacation. I have 33 days of vacation leave anyway. Maybe it is about time I use some of it. For Korea.

 

Speaking of Korea, my family and I went to Seoul Barbecue for dinner yesterday to celebrate my birthday. I chose the place. It wasn't my first time there but I still loved the food. I think I may have reached the limit of my tummy though because I opted not to get the Korean ice cream for dessert anymore even if I have always been of the view that sweets are the highlight of any meal.
