I CALLED IT A DREAM

I am a simple person, 22 years old, I am still a student, I study in Taylor's University since 3 years ago after I came back from Japan. That day, when I was holding my luggage waving my hand to my family at the airport,  that feeling was complicated. I was happy because I am going to have a new life in Japan, in the other way, I was sad because I am leaving my family, my friends and my home. I know that, by the day after, I would be all alone and freedom. I have no idea what will happen next, I was exciting but worried. I still remember when I walking through the arrival hall with few of the students like me, we became friend immediately because we knew that we will take care each other start from that time. The air in the airport was different from Malaysia, I can feel the cold from outside, it was the end of winter, outside was raining told by a teacher who was in charge to lead us to the place we stay. He was friendly and he can speak a little bit of Chinese. Then I had my first ride of subway in Japan. Look through the window, I saw the view of Japan, then I was thinking about my coming life in Japan.
Time flies, I spend a good time in Japan, I already familiar with the complicated subway route map, I moved out from hostel and stay in a small but nice home. I met friends from all over the world and friendly Japanese teachers in my language school, we went to picnic, museum, zoo, stadium and more. I had a boyfriend that time, he was my classmate, we had a good time in Japan.
But things never go smooth every times, that was a long holiday, so I decided to go home to visit my family. I had a good holiday spending with my family, but I didn't know that was the end of my Japan life. That day, my mum tried to persuade me to give up Japan and stay in Malaysia. She was persistent, same as my dad. I had no choice, I knew that they give me everything as they can take away everything from me. I was mad at them that time, but still they are my parents. I shouldn't obey them. My dad offered me to study at Taylor's University and I accepted because somebody told me that I should appreciated the things that I have which other people might don't have.
I told myself, my parents might be wrong sometimes but still I am already blessed a lot, I shouldn't not force my parents to give me what I want, I should appreciated what I already have. If going back to Japan is what I want, then I should do it by myself, and this is where my motivation come from. Still, I miss there sometimes, I miss my friends and my home there, it doesn't mean that the staying there is happier than here or easier but just because the relationship, the people, things and places, everything that's emotional inside. I will go back one day in the future, I am not sure it is when, but I am excited.

I am a simple person, I want my life to be simple, if I have a good marriage that will be perfect. But if I can't meet a Mr. right, I will not going to marry a guy just because I want a marriage. I would like to just having a relationship with my guy or even having children without marrying to him. To me, a true love doesn't need a guarantee, love and stay, if not we leave. Marriage is very hard to maintain, two people come from different family, they have different habit opinion, lifestyle and a lot and a lot. Why two people want to live together when there are lots of arguments and unhappiness between them, I thought I want a marriage because it come with happiness.

Do you afraid of getting old?
Imagine what would it like to be 50 years old.
What would you be doing? 

No, I know this is normal

When I am 50, i will be mature enough to handle my life since I have 50 years of experience

When I am 50, I will have a small but beautiful house

I will have a nice breakfast with coffee everyday

I will have a dog, I love dog

I might be still working but it won't be all of my life
I will have a bunch of old friends as old as me and we are still loving each other like family
I will do paintings because my children will remind of me when they see my paintings

I will still playing my piano because it is part of my life

I will have a nice kitchen because I like to cook

I hope he will do the gardening for me because I don't like it but I like nature 

I want to travel every year
To me , 50 is the age that we have to slow down your life and start to do whatever you like
 I will enjoy the rest of my life 

a song that I picked

https://youtu.be/42Gtm4-Ax2U

IU – Twenty-three lyrics English Translation

I’m twenty three
I’m a puzzle (question)
Guess what the answer is
I’m twenty three
Don’t get it wrong because
I’m pretty sensitive
Guess
A cluster of 23
Seem like a lady now?
Even if I pretend to be grown up
Only trust me a certain amount
A catty 23
I still have a long way to go
Even if I pretend I’m not grown up yet
Just pretend you’re falling for it
I definitely like it right now
No no actually I wanna just quit
Oh I know, I wanna be in love
Nah I just wanna make money
Guess
Which side am I on?
You can’t figure it out by just looking at my face
All I’m doing is making a different face from how I really feel
It’s really simple
Which side am I on?
Actually, I don’t even know
But I’ve never written a single line of lies from the beginning
A fox pretending to be a bear pretending to be a fox
Or something else?
Which side am I on?
Just pick one
I’m used to people looking at me with biased eyes
Check it out
I have nothing to fear
Even if I mess up
People are nice to me every day
That girl who’s saying hi to me
Is she still smiling after she turns that corner?
I’m always nervous
I wanna stay a kid forever
No I wanna be a lady with juice
Ah I picked one, I wanna live as if I’m dead
Nah I wanna flip it all over
Guess
Which side am I on?
You can’t figure it out by just looking at my face
All I’m doing is making a different face from how I really feel
It’s really simple
Which side am I on?
Actually, I don’t even know
But I’ve never written a single line of lies from the beginning
A fox pretending to be a bear pretending to be a fox
Or something else?
Which side am I on?
Just pick one
I’m used to people looking at me with biased eyes
I wanna be liked by you
Can I just act a little annoying?
I wanna be liked by you
Can I just play on top of your head?
Guess
Which side am I on?
You can’t figure it out by just looking at my face
All I’m doing is making a different face from how I really feel
It’s really simple
Which side am I on?
Actually, I don’t even know
But I’ve never written a single line of lies from the beginning
A fox pretending to be a bear pretending to be a fox
Or something else?
Which side am I on?
Just pick one
I’m used to people looking at me with biased eye

THIS SONG IS ALL ABOUT SHE IS 23 YEARS OLD AND WHAT SHE IS FACING NOW IN THIS AGE. IM 22 NOW AND WHAT SHE MENTIONED IN THIS SONG IS SIMILAR AS MINE, TRULY REPRESENTED MY THOUGHT, MY DOUBT AND SITUATION IN THIS AGE.
