The Urban Rebel in Me
I was the always the goody-two-shoes back in school. A student leader with decent grades and well, enough true friends to help me out when I need some aid.
But frankly, I always had a rebellious streak in me. I knew there was more to life than studying,tv,boybands and hanging out at the mall. I want to know what life was about and to experience "life",I rebelled, broke rules and did crazy things which I never thought I had the courage to. My entire adolescene life became a drama serial and roller coaster ride.
I ran away from home, held multiple jobs and studied at the same time and had my parents pulling their hair. No, I wasn’t the uncouth Ah Lian who hung out all day at Orchard puffing cigarettes in skimpy black tops. I don’t have vulgarities flying out of my mouth nor did I get into fights.
I wasn’t the girl my parents had hoped/expected me to me…
I was just the girl who wanted to do what she wanted to do.
I got into serious trouble with my impulsiveness and brashness.
I’m not smart but I’m not stupid either, having gone through my fair share of ups and downs.
And most importantly, I fell in love…got hurt real bad…hurt some others real bad.
Im still a risk-taker though…but when it comes to love…I think twice…
Cos I know what can seem so real, so true now, can become mere memories in a matter of weeks/months…
