#A

Hello Earthlings, I have this idea where I want to start writing random things according to alphabets and since this is the first day, I guess I'll start with the letter A. So many words start with A but honestly, the only word I can think of right at this moment is accounting. Perhaps, because I've been associated with the word so much daily but maybe I should go for other words. Maybe, achievement? Let's try.

The word 'achievement' has been defined as 'a thing done successfully with effort, skill, or courage:"  A thing.. which means that achievement is something subjective. Everyone defines achievement differently from one another. I can say that my biggest achievement in life as of now, is that I've finished my Degree (InsyaAllah) but that kind of achievement seems so worldly. Sometimes, praying five times seem like an achievement for the day. It'd be nice if I can say that my biggest achievement in life is.. that I've helped someone changed his or her life. If I can achieve that one day, it'd be great. I'm not trying to sound like oh-I-am-the-world's-kindest-person-on-this-earth, no. It's just that as of now, I am 23 years old and I don't think I have done anything that can make me leave this earth with a smile. Some may say I still have a long way to go but if I don't start now, when will I start?

I've always wanted to open up a small restaurant that serves good quality homey food. If I am selling Nasi Goreng Cili Padi, then it be just like how your mom my mom cooks it. If I am selling chocolate brownies with vanilla ice cream, then it will taste just like Pillsbury's homemade chocolate brownies. So everyday, when you are operating a restaurant, you will have all these leftovers and I always ask, what happens to the leftovers? Can we give it to those who would need it? I know it's not nice to give people our leftovers but it'll be better rather than to just throw it away. So, I figured if I am the owner of the restaurant, I will have a say on how my restaurant operates right? I want to set up a connection between someone from the Reach programme or something and make a pact about leftovers food. If I do have a restaurant in the future and I forget about this, someone please print this post of mine and remind me about it, just incase  I don't remember. Oh, back to the achievement. It'll be an achievement if I can do this. This type of achievement can easily triumph over my Degree anytime because at the end of the day, having a plain certificate doesn't define who you are. 

One can have all the certificates, money and position in the world but if he doesn't give back, what's the purpose of him having it all? As for me, I hope that when I have reached my goals later in life (What goals am I talking about? I have no idea!) I hope that I will get back to earth and always stay on the ground, not floating on cloud nine. Lately, my personal goals in life is quite vague. How do I achieve such vague goals? The only clear goals that I have is, I want to meet Ashton Kutcher. Lame. I know. Thus, this is why I initiated this. If I can write my personal opinions regarding these 26 random topics during my holidays, it'll be a minor achievement, but still. It is better than none. Just to keep my head moving during the holidays. 

Oh, today was a day well-spent, indeed :) Such an achievement for me. The letter for tmoro is  the letter B. SUCH AN INTERESTING LETTER. HEHEHE.
