Days & Time.

Make your time count. Lol. I can't believe I'm the one saying this. 'Cos I've wasted so much time in confusion.
There's a lot life has to offer.
I was born the second child of my father, the first son of my family. So many expectations from everyone.
As a kid, I always looked up to my dad for everything. Even the choice of a career. I wanted to be a mechanical engineer just like him. Bt as I grew older, things got complicated.
I loved singing. I became a good dancer. I started production on the home desktop with FL studio 3. And then somehow, music and dancing took the fore role above everything else. Including education. *sighs* My dad noticed and asked me what I really wanted. I told him I wanted to study aerospace engineering(a subsidiary of mechanical engineering) and I wanted to become an artiste. I was just 14. I had never seen my dad give me that look of disappointment as he did that day. Then he told me music and art was for the lazy folk. He said "It's a lazy man's job. A stupid excuse for a career".
He canceled his plans for me to travel abroad for ma university education all because he wanted to monitor me and make sure I didn't follow what I said. I ended up in CU. Lol. The land of corporate eagles. My parents thought this would tie me down. Ha ha. They didn't know they had just set me on a limitless sail.
My dancing has grown way better. And my music too. But I let my grades slip.
I want to be a business guru, a great artiste, dancer and producer(triple threat), lol, and a perfect son to my parents. They still look up to me. But I feel like I'm asking too much of life. I want to have a bit of too many things and I know moving in the line of one focus, I'll lose the others.
The days are rolling by, and time is running out. And I've been able to narrow things down to entertainment and business. Entertainment is not what my parents want, but it's what I'm happy doing. Business on the other hand, well, money makes every man happy. Lol. Can I have it all? Or do I need to let one go? Time will tell I guess. And I hope to smile all the way at the very end.
