Romeo And Juliet

Falling in love at 13 and people call it puppy love.
That it doesn't matter.
It will never matter.
And they are the same spirits that romanticize Romeo and Juliet.

Falling in love at 20 but people can no longer have trust.
He loves her, but he loves her too.
She loves him, but not as much as she loves him.
And they are the same spirits that believe love comes with honesty and maturity.

Falling in love at 30 and people rush towards it because time is now a fiend.
He's good enough, I guess.
She'll do.
Beggars can't be choosers.
And they are the same souls that believes a soul is specially made for another.

Falling in love at 40 are for people who have nothing to lose.
A second chance at love they say.
Or it could be a moment of that long awaited "finally"
And they are the few lucky souls that truly understand romeo and juliet..

When You Can't Afford To Be Lazy Anymore.

I'm 22. Graduating my degree next year and I have absolutely no savings. I blame no one but myself and if I had started saving much earlier I would probably don't need to worry about not having enough money to travel. Or to just survive in college in general.

But I didn't and there's nothing I can do about it now.

But to do nothing about it is no longer an option and if I don't start now I would forever be living under the mercy of my parents and friends and I just can't let that happen. Ever. Especially when I always think of myself as someone who can be independent when she wants to be.

These few months of semester break have given me time to reflect on myself and think about my current condition. I realize I'm nowhere near the place I wish I'd be at this age. The result of dreaming too much till you didn't get anything done to realize that dream.
