I’m 23 years old and I’m proud of myself

23 years old, what can you do at this age? It’s young but it seems that you have a lot of things to do, to change the world, to make an impact to the world.

23 years old, most of you are just graduated, can’t wait to throw your graduation hat off you. Because you can finally make an end to the endless assignments, projects, tests, quizzes, exams which you’re not interested.

23 years old, you are so eager to throw yourself at the society, mingle with them, tell them that you’re part of the big plan for the world.

I’m 23 years old and all my friends are chasing for the best paid jobs, as we know that our first job paid is gonna fix our next ones. And so, I heard that A got a job that I applied for but I didn’t get it. Then, one by one got their job and started to have lives.

23 years old, I’m thinking what could I do when I’m young at this age to achieve something. To be frank, I don’t know. I have been wondering what’s my passion. I don’t know. And then, I applied for the jobs that I’m interested which is something related to my hobby. I failed the interviews again.

23 years old, they said I’m too young, I don’t have any experience. I said these can be learnt. But they need the job done in a minute. Thus, I failed many attempts when searching for my passion.

I’m 23 years old and I’m proud of myself. One day I found a job with minimal paid but it’s something that I pursue few years ago. I took it. Most people teased at me because of my pay, because of the things I couldn’t afford, because of the restaurants I couldn’t get in. But I’m proud of myself. It’s because I live with the small amount of paid and yet I can still pay for my parents expenses and bills. I keep my expenses to minimum to ensure the sufficiency of the money. At the same time, I’m started to work part time, get some extra skills and experiences. I need to learn quickly, to run faster, to grow in advance for who I am going to be in the future.

I’m 23 years old and I’m proud of myself. Because I’m better than anyone else, I start holding responsibility for my parents. I’m 23 years old now, it’s time for me to treat my parents who have given me the best for all 23 years lived by.
