Dreaming is less painful

My goal is a dream.
It has not changed since five.
Period.
People dream.
I mean a succession of images, thoughts, or emotions passing through the mind during sleep.
And an involuntary vision occurring to a person when awake (daydream).
Cos dream and I-aspire-to-be are different.
Dream is not as realistic as I-want-to-be-a-scientist.
But sadly, I am someone who dreams.
So to speak, I am unrealisitic and not down to earth.
I don't want to be labelled as that so I keep on trying.
Surprisingly, my dream becomes real.

I know education is important but I hate studying.
I believe I can score straight As if I wanted to.
I am a taurus with determined character.
I want to show people that I can do it my way.
I want to prove that degree holders might not be successful.
I want people to know that monetary satisfaction is inferior to passion.
I am living my life and I want to live it well.
No one can stop me!

Reality is often painful.
Unlike dreaming, you can pinch me a million times and I don't feel a thing.
All my "I want", "I believe", "I know" and "I am" become balderdash.

To all students out there, heed my advice:
Study hard if you're not smart and study smart if you've got what it takes.
(Jia you for the upcoming examinations! Exercise, eat well and sleep well.)
I always ask people to go after their dreams.
But I won't do that now.
We are living in a realistic world where you'll die without a decent certificate.
No one cares about your niche area without that piece of paper.
You better think of what you aspire-to-be and not what you dream-to-be.
You might think that my points are controversial.
Yes they are.
I'm a little confused by myself right now.
You can argue that becoming a scientist, doctor or lawyer might not be realistic as well.
Or you can debate that I-dream-to-be and I-aspire-to-be are the same as both involved hardwork and determination.
Well, you can go to www.dictionary.com and you'll know the difference.

But, my dream is not a dream because I aspire-to-be.
Alright I think I should stop here.
I'm having a perplexed state of mind now.

All I want to say now is...
THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
I will do my best and present my best.
Hopefully you won't switch channel when you see me on tv.
P.S. I will reply to your tag soon! Promise. :)

Just do what you think is good and right for yourself, cos no one in this world know better than yourself on what you want... It may not be a easy journey for you to fulfil the best out of your dream, but as long as determination and courage is what you have, I believe you can make it. There's no definition on success and failure, it depends on what is your view... What more important is the life experiences that one gains through the journey isn't it... It's something no one can to school and gain it...
