the m word

so here i am at home on a saturday. haha. all my friends wanted to go to pim but i am sooooooo not in the mood for pim and i don't know how to get there anyway. and since UTS is next week, i figured i'd stay home and study.

i want to write down a little something about motivation. haha. first, here are a few examples.

i have a friend, theater player extrodinaire. she's played along on sooooo many plays with top charted actor and actresses. she completely WOWs me. she joined my campus's theater and she was a candidate for the leading role. she was completely head over heels at first, but now, she never comes to practice anymore. mls aja gt katanya.

another friend of mine, she really wanted to join the campus's choir. she thirst for the prestige it offered. she went into auditions, made it, but once she found out all the things she has to do and the practices she has to attend, quitting is definitely something she's starting to think of doing.

me, i REALLY wanted to join the english debate society. being able to have amazing public speaking and debating ability, visiting my friends in a lot of campuses in indonesia. being able to actually wear that yellow jacket outside campus, being able to join competition outside of the country. oh wow. but now that i've made it in, i'm now facing all the things i have to go through and suddenly, i was all aaaaaah males aaaaaaaaaaah.

those 3 examples above, people really do give up easily when given obstacles. come on admit it. we all do. i figured, this is why very few people ended up successful. if you're highly motivated and keep charging at whatever is being thrown at you, you'll definitely go somewhere. so success really is something you gain, something that's definitely not easy to get and actually it is worth every bit of the pain. but back to the fact that not everybody feels like getting up when the going gets down.
