Nothing Yet Happy ?!

It's officially the second quarter of year 2011. Seriously, how time flies! If at this very moment, someone were to ask me how I feel, I will answer, "I feel nothing and yet happy." By nothing, I do not mean I feel empty, I just feel....well, nothing. I have been working on auto-pilot mode and getting okay money for doing that. Mind you, I did not choose to work like that, it's just that the nature of my job does not require me to push my brain to the limits. Therefore it makes me feel nothing because I use my brain lesser nowadays and since I practically give up on my studies, I am not putting my brain to good use again. I stop studying because usually only school drop-outs can be millionaires at a very young age and I am trying to follow suit. Before all you parents and teachers out there start screaming, well nope, I am only joking. I have given this course of study so many years and yet, I still can't complete it. I blame it all on passion and since I have already wasted enough time and money on it, enough is enough!

The above leads me to feeling happy, which is the only emotion I feel nowadays. Why? Well, I choose to be happy, it's as simple as that....really! Don't believe? Lets get a bit deeper into my life :

1. I have a stress-free job that pays okay money and I do not have to clock in extra hours at work. Did I also mention that all meals are provided by the company?

2. I do not have a very high tertiary education but I am grateful to land a job that pays okay. Besides that, I feel rich in knowledge of mannerism and humanity.

3. I have great family members. I still have both parents alive, not to mention both my grandmothers too, and also my brother. As for the extended family members, we are not very closely-knitted but we are all on good terms and when we do get together, it's always a joyous affair.

4. I have small eyes, flat nose and lots of baby fats despite my age. At this point, many of you will go, "What?? You are happy with that?" Well, yes and no! I used to not like my features because doe-eyed girls with small pointy nose usually get more attention, and don't even get me started on those flabby flesh. But then again, I have also seen many girls with my features that are pretty and even manage to land hot caucasian husband. As for those extra pounds, lots of exercise and healthy living is the way to get rid of them. At least, every part of my body is original (I despise plastic surgery for beauty), so what's the reason to be unhappy about?

5. I manage to stay out of gossips or participate in any form of gossips. Honestly, human revolve around gossip and to be able to stay out of this orbit is a really difficult task though not impossible.

6. I have friends and colleagues who love me for who I am.

7. I have a comfortable home to live in, sufficient money to spend on leisure activities and for donation, am living in a country where although the political grounds are a bit messy, at least it's a natural disaster-free area and I have my dog whom I really love.

Aren't all this sufficient? Well, I still desire to own a house, to have a better-paying job and to land a good husband. But I believe all this things will happen eventually. I should live in the present moment and enjoy it, tomorrow is after all a mystery.
