on fulfilling your dreams ...

had dinner with friends last night in the birthday girl's nest. yeah, she's *just* 29 and yet had her own condo in a very prestige area from her own hard earned cash! though it's hers i couldn't help but feel a slightly sense of belonging there, probably because i was given all details from the moment she did the viewing, purchased it, all the talk she had with the designer, and the shopping we did for the iron and other stuff. i guess that's why i was given a task to become the guide for other friends who came. house aside, this friend of mine really motivates me to be more finance savvy. i mean she who earns what? probably 5x more than i do is leading a simple daily life - unlike me, a compulsive shopper who could just hail a cab anytime i want to and never give a second thought on something which sometimes i ended up regret buying. i could say that apart from motivating each other to be more cost savvy with another friend of mine; this girl really motivates me to think twice before spending my cash. yes of course i couldn't forget the fact that she's from a different line with much exposure working in few countries before coming here, but still she motivates me to be a 'better' person finance-wise.
dinner was good but as usual the chat was better. topic of the night :- what are we doing with our life, career, and contentment - i'll have another post on contentment as i have so many things in my mind on that. last night chat ended up with me being happy with the decision i had recently made, at least i was given more confirmation from the lots that i am doing the right thing. i just hope everything works smoothly for each one of us, and hopefully i can fulfill my plan.
