Coming of age

**** SPOILER FOR NARUTO THE LAST****

This weekend has been a major eye-opener for me; with the trigger being not one but a combination of the things I did.

Firstly, I'll start off with Naruto the Last.

Saturday 17th

After sitting from the beginning till the end of the movie, I've got to say, I quite enjoyed it. It wasn't spectacular or anything but I walked in not really knowing what to expect and although the movie had a little too much cheese, I felt rather content, knowing how the story of Naruto ended and that it was really quite a happy ending. What I also realized was how the years have gone by, how time has gone by. By the end of the movie, both Naruto and Hinata were married and had kids and well lived happily ever after. What a perfect life.

Two or so years ago I remember sitting at my desk watching Naruto. Like with every other anime, I stopped just so that more episodes would be released so that I could watch more in one seating. I always thought, when does it end? In saying this, I now realize how much I hate time. Naruto has finally come to an end and even though I stopped keeping up with it -last thing I remember is Naruto fighting Pain- I felt quite gloomy knowing that... That was it.

As soon as I left cinema 4, I couldn't help but feel upset or even frustrated. I've always had dreams and hopes of living in a fantasy world where different lifestyles and priorities existed. Why can't I live in a world where I can shoot beams out of my palms, find the love of my life and live a happily ever after and not have to worry about buying a house?

Sunday 18th

Moving on, this morning I decided to go to Home world at Kellyville with my mother, uncle and his wife. I didn't realize how amazing this place was- there was a point in time where I thought it might be fun bringing a few friends here just to look at houses and designs. The first house we visited, I in awe. Did I really find my dream house? I still think so. If you were to ask me to describe it, I would rather just bring you there.

After spending a couple of hours at Home world, what I came to know was that having a house is pretty damn important. There is a back story for my attitude towards owning a house but I'll save it for another time. How about I just say that my mum has been lecturing/ emphasising how important it is to have a house, how my brother should have one and I should have one and ALSO how owning a unit is just not enough.

It is now 7:30pm, since I had no mobile data, I decided to read the Daily Telegraph for my one hour break. I came across an article which added fuel to my desire to make $$$. The article was about how a poor-ish guy became rich and guess how? Yep, the stock market (Forex) to be specific.


And now here I am, upset, lonely, poor.
On the bright side, I can say I'm quite motivated. I've been learning about trading, I've been trying to get more sleep, trying to prioritise goals, physical activity and sleep.

That was just a slice of my personal life, see you soon friends.
