We seem to enjoy both cartoon and news. We can now no longer eat whatever we wish without putting on weight. And sadly, now we are not invited for weekend cricket matches.
Every aunty we meet asks, "When are you getting married?!" whilst uncles ask, "What are you doing with your career?!" When the reality is that we are just riding the wave and going with the flow.
We have all the confidence in the world, but none or too little achievements to show. We already have the firsthand experience of life. We know that whatever we have been taught about the world in schools has been a sheer waste of time.
We have been denied a job even after passing the test, but we could have got the job if we know someone placed high enough. Politics till now was a dirty word but now we feel it everywhere.
We know now, love is not that blind and that friendship has its terms and conditions. We know there is nothing for granted and free lunches are not free.
Our overconfidence is now making way for a humble conscience. We now know it is not exactly what we thought it would be.
