“Life isn’t always fun, but it’s not always sad either,” I told myself.

At this age, I began to learn that life is a repeated alternation of sad and happy times, all of which teach valuable lessons. Especially for me who has to learn to appreciate the valuable things around me. Right now, I always try to stay positive even though I actually refrain from getting angry, disappointed and the feeling of failure can’t be separated. It’s hard, but it’s a fact of life when we grow up.

The age of 23 is the time when I have finished my undergraduate education and started to enter the professional world and carry out the routine of work like everyone else. There are no more classes, lecturers, or paperwork to complete. There are no sudden quizzes or memorizing material for tomorrow’s exam. Right now, I’m getting busy starting to work on projects in the office, presentations with investors, or brainstorming strategies for office business development. In the morning, wake up, become commuters who have to take public transportation, and coincide with crowds. Self-acceptance that today is a new day, and creating new changes.

At this age, starting to try to think that this world is naturally not doing well. However, I also realized that I would get stronger with the challenges. I feel that life is speeding up and I still feel confused about whether what I’ve been doing is right, and what should I do next?

Welcome, 24.
I always have dreams and hopes for the future.

At this age, I have to learn to accept failure many times. Trying to convince yourself that it’s not you who is wrong, but it’s just not the time you deserve it. Try to always think positively that hope will always be there. Then try again, fall 7 times and get up 8 times.

I hope that there will be new opportunities that I can try and learn new things again. Or just visiting a new place, trying new food, meeting new friends, getting a new atmosphere, and hopefully getting a new job.

Something new hopefully gives things a level up for me. Makes me a better person.

I don’t want to be too strict about managing the future, because there will definitely be surprises in the midst of this vast ocean of life.
