I didn't mention this previously, but I actually got a volunteer position for cat care at the end of last month. It was a big step for me to take. Although, after being a dog walker for so long, I had enough experience with dogs to move onto cats. The volunteer work isn't directly involved with the cats, unless I am talking and playing with them since it focuses on cleaning the surrounding areas. It's a hard job, harder than what I thought it'd be, but it is very fulfilling. Actually, now that I gaining the courage to expand my work experience thanks to my newly car license, my mnd is scattered with ideas I want to do in the future. It's an excitingly new experience for me, to be able to be... Excited for the careers ahead of me. To have the thought in my head that maybe, just maybe, I can do whatever I put my mind to. Well, anything that doesn't give me a headache, haha.

At school, teachers would ask so casually, "What do you want as your dream job?" And honestly, it's such a broad question. We only have one life, why waste it on one specific job? I have so many dreams, it'll be a waste to throw them aside to prioritise a single one. I remember I've always wanted to do snorkelling and I have snorkelled in the past. I'd like to possibly use that desire to snorkel as work, whether unpaid or paid work. But, I know it is so important not to rush myself, I am only 21 after all, no less a year after 20. Instead, I should go slow and steady, take life for what it is. That's the most important thing that I should do, in fact a lesson that so many of us forget.

I have to tell myself, if I finish all my goals at once, what is there left for me in the future? Just like the hare and tortoise, if I were to race to the finishing line before the tortoise, how can I appericate life if I've done all that I can at a young age? I'll only push myself to keep achieving new goals until I cannot outaccomplish what has previously been done because that's all that I would be familiar with. Then it becomes a way of living than appericating the moment for what it is.

With other news, I'm trying to push myself to sell my merch again. It's hard because I get so nervous about advertising. It isn't the fact of doing it that scares me, but the fact it won't work, or I'll be seen as pushy. But business is bold, upfront, and yes, sometimes pushy. If I want my merchandise to perform as well as a business, I need to push like one. I have to admit, I'm also not good at knowing how to advertise, but I figured out I'm only going to focus on reels as if now.
