有些东西，就像蒲公英。

眨眼间，就随风而去了。

No Surprise

It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow...

I love this song. It reminds me from time to time not to take things around me for granted. My family, friends, things that keeps my lifestyle going like money, a healthy body, etc...

I don't like taking things for granted. Thinking that everything will stay the same is deadly, you become dependant on practically everything around you. The best example to show that you're overly dependant on certain things in life is you will go hysteria when you lose your things like mobile phones. You feel like the end of the world is here. Yes, that's what I'm talking about. Taking for granted that in your life you will always have a mobile phone. It becomes your necessity instead of an 'option' in life.

I keep reminding myself that things may go wrong any time. The worst things in life never come expected. I keep telling myself my parents won't be here for me forever, my friends too might just disappear in a blink of an eye, I might just lose a place to stay the next day, or I might just lose my life the next time I drive recklessly. These thoughts keep me going in life. Or else I would've stayed in this 'comfort zone' forever. I wouldn't even want to improve my life because I'm already satisfied with what I have.

But I guess, for the past few months, I've actually bear this thought, this dangerous thought of 'things will remain as it is', like remain forever. When I start taking things for granted, I stop working hard to achieve what I want. I started wasting my times on unproductive things. Sometimes, I even tell myself that my grades are not important any more. When I come to realise, it's a little bit too late. I didn't work as hard for my study as before. I guess it's no surprise if I get a dissatisfying result in two months time.

So time to keep myself back in shape. No more slacking in my study and in life. Always remember that things will change, and they do change, especially when I'm not prepared for it. I guess I learned my lesson pretty well this time.

There's no surprise they won't be here tomorrow...
