When I was young, I used to get what I wanted. Spoiled brat, I could still remember one time, Mom told me “What Sharon wants, Sharon gets” Yah! Maybe yes, May be No. I have always the perseverance to really get what I want. I got disappointed, very much disappointed when I don’t get what I wish for on time. I always have my own deadline. I am impatient when it comes to waiting. But somehow I know it’s not good. It’s so depressing when I can’t meet the deadline I gave to myself to get hold of that plans.
I was and is always had a list of my desires, needs and ambitions in life. Believed it or not most of that plans happened on or before the deadline I’ve set to myself. I wanted everything to be perfect.
When I was in college, I’ve met someone from the University I was in, we took same course but I was one year ahead of him. He became my BF; of course I don’t want to humiliate myself. I wanted to show to him that I am good in class. I studied so hard, wanted to see my name the Deans List, and it happened, I always found my name posted on Departmental Bulletin Board.
When I graduated college, I wanted to get a job right away, after two months I was employed, though it was not a promising job but at least I’ve earned money out of it. Second, I want to save money for simple renovation of our home, particularly in our living room (SALA) and to our own rooms upstairs, just do some simple beautification at home to make us comfortable, I always make sure that everything at home is OK–I’ve made it!, out of my own savings. Isn’t it great? J
Being an IT Graduate, I always dream to have my own PC, to buy new one. With my earnings at work, honestly it’s quite hard for me to purchase that PC immediately but because of that desire I got it. It was a fulfilling moment because I worked hard for it. I used that thing (PC) to earned money also.
Time passed by, I wanted to become independent, to work away from home, to prove to myself and to my family that I can live on my own. I wanted to go to abroad to earn much income. It was in October 2004, I went to Singapore with my friend, to work there. But it was considered a nightmares, I wasn’t successful with the job that I have landed. I went home, failure. But still, it was a dream came true to work outside my country. After that, I got one job to another in our place but I was not satisfied of it, always dreamt of good paying job, most of all a job that is related of my profession. YEP! I got it, working on IT Company (SEO to be specific). I stayed there for years.
I dreamt to build my own family with the man I love, prayer granted. April 9, 2005 I got married with the man I really love. He gave me beautiful daughter, two of them – a Gift, the most precious gift I have ever received.
All my life I did never stopped dreaming especially now that I have my own family. I now dream for my family and not for myself alone. It was last year November 10, 2007 when I’d follow my dreams for my family. I have decided to leave my family, particularly my husband and my one year and half young baby to work abroad again. Here I am now, starting to build our dreams. Thanks God He gave me a good job and a good company.

we’ll always get what we want. It is in our hands to get it or not. Things that we desire are just fantasies if we don’t put effort on it.
