Shifting priorities and leveling resources

This isn’t really a comeback from my blogging hiatus. I was just staring at this blog and felt sad about having just one post for the whole month of October so I decided to place another one to keep it company.
I am really at a crossroads yet again. The sem’s over and done with and, provided that I get a passing grade from my Semantics class, I am finally done with my coursework. I have to pass my proficiency exam in Spanish first before I proceed to writing my thesis. Realistically, I can finish it in a semester’s time if I choose to. But now, I’m compelled to put all my academic plans on hold.
I’m just nearing a quarter of a century old and yet I feel that I’ve got to start gambling or else I wouldn’t be able to experience life’s comforts. I took a look at my bank accounts and I have to admit, I have a long way to go before I rack up mu first million and quite honestly, being a millionaire with only a million pesos doesn’t really make you rich. That’s not even enough to buy you a decent car these days. I’m sick and tired of being lower middle class and I’d definitely want my future family to enjoy a bit of life’s comforts. Being a deprived kid makes you want those things.
