linc: are u not interested in hearing me talk about the weather???

linc: i really don't want to get into it

Last night was one of the epic night of my life and I will perhaps tell you how does it started. I went straight to wet market from school because I am looking for a bouquet of flower. But this isn't about the flower, okay? This is about the floral designer herself. In the first minutes she was ornamenting the flowers seriously. She didn't even bother smiling at me so I was just quiet thinking how she'd come up with this kind of business. Well, I don't really know what was on me until she asked about the usual thing like where do I study, and of course the next thing is, what program I am taking; then I told her, BS Accountancy. And without a glimpse, she said, "CPA ako (I am a CPA)". And I was like what???! CPA. It was just like a while ago when I wonder what might be this woman's life behind the flowers, and then she answered it in a mysterious way. But this  is not yet where the story ended. Of course I was like a smaller piece of shit now. She told me she took her CPA Board Exam like hundred decades ago and that was 1978; the year where calculator haven't yet born, as she told me. And me like, whooooooot?! :O Srsly?! Ughhhh. And my mouth is really wide open. And then subsequently, she told me she was only 20 years old back then. And me, whooot?! Fresh graduate. 20 years old. Instant CPA with no calculator. Uhhh. And I remember myself that I can't leave our house without bringing my calculator because I am afraid I might  need it anytime. But the truth is, I don't need the calculator. What I need is me to read. She told me lots of story that I don't precisely remember today because of my after shock. But I remember asking her for a tip, and y'know what did she said: WORK HARD. A moment of silence and I almost started to cry like as if those two words was the first time I heard of them. As she said those words, there is a different magic in it. Magic that haunted me and made me want to read my accounting books all over again. It was like a dream night last night. Someone had made me realized what I am doing right at this moment is justifiably not enough. I need to earn investment if I really wanted to become a CPA. She even like told me that, if it needed not to sleep then okay do not. Read my book and she said the word "practice" a thousand times. Awwwww. When I had the bouquet of flowers in my arms, that was the sign the time is over and I need to walk myself away from her store. But I don't like yet. I wanted to talk to her the whole night and inspire me with her life.

Well, what I told you with this blog is all I had last night because I want to share this momentous part of my life. Some of you might be, of course, won't be interested but I intended this to those people, not just to Accountancy students, but also to everybody who are aiming and dreaming to be whatever they want in life.
