This blogging thing has now become my habit, be it good or bad depending on how you see it.
Erm, I am relatively free-er, not completely since there is still one week left to the end of all lectures possible in my life and I need to do quite a few things this coming week. Not much of assignments or even thinking, I just have a few people I need to meet and a few experimental glitches to face or enquire on that could bring my project down.
Its deepavali next week, woo hoo!! Not the biggest fan of festive seasons, I mean you should take everyday as it comes. (I’m sulking cause I had the hardest time finding something new to wear.)
But oh well, its the festivity of light, destroy the evil!! symbolically I mean. And here’s wishing everyone has a great time and a very Happy Diwali!
This week, the question asked was : What will you do if you won a million dollars?
I would probably invest it, let it grow make it double. That is the most logical answer right?
But Spiritually, I guess give it all away! Wah…it would feel liberating. Well in my answer posted on the site, I said I will divide it four ways, or after thinking I have decided five ways among the elders in the family and AMMA’s organisation. Since she’s spent alot of time and money on me, it would be the best way to return my Mum what she’s invested in me. And I didn’t think I would use any of the money on myself. Now that I think about it, I could pay my way through a Masters Degree at some place in England. That would be awesome. But when I typed the answer earlier, I didn’t think things through properly and I can’t change my answer now!
At that time,this is what I thought. I’m young, its not like I will never ever see a million dollars. I am not saying I will become a millionaire in the future but I could potentially work my butts of to earn that money and that money I earn will be my very own. I can bathe with $10 bills if I think I want to. But with the lottery, its not hard earned, the money doesn’t really belong to me. And could be treated as such. I found it was easier for me to part with that cash than giving $10 to the salavtion army from my own pocket for example. When I think about all the things I can do with a million dollars, I have one huge neverending list.
Lady Luck was at my side if I won a million dollars and I think giving it away to people who deserve it more than I do would be wise. So I said I will give all my money away.
BUT I WANT MY HYPOTHETICAL MILLION DOLLARS BACK PLEASE? I WANT TO BUY SO MANY THINGS…ooo I can even buy a car. You know that Friends episode where Pheobe donates the money for her wedding to a charity and wanted it back, I feel the same.
