We live [Lets make it balanced]


We are students.
And yes, we are living.
So, when we live, we eat, burp and shit.
It is what we call the nature of living.

Living as a students is adventurous.
We do everything ourselves.
To eat, we must help ourselves
To shit, we must help ourselves.
To do laundry, we must help ourselves.
Yes, everything is by yourself.
Nobody else is doing it for you.

Doing everything by yourself doesn't mean you have to do it traditionally.
Instead of going to the forest hunting for rabbits to eat, you can simply buy foods from the food stalls.
Or going to the river washing your clothes, take it to the laundry shop instead.

Whatever it is, a student must take care of himself.
Not like a baby, you are being taken care by your parents.
For those who are able to do everything independently, good job.
You are a capable living thing on earth that don't burden others.

My point is, we students are not robots. We do have life to live and it is hard actually. Craving for food, homeworks, keeping a fit body, handling uncontrollable libido, and many more activities. Putting it together will heap a mount of stress. No wonder some of us turns cuckoo...

Having a balanced life is important. Your parent might have not told you this but the probably shown you in their own way, maybe you are not paying attention. The everyday chores back in your childhood, making your own breakfast, rearrange your toys, those are just few examples i can give. Unless you are that spoiled, i am very sorry for you. You have to start over again, baby steps...

When doing things our way, we tend to do it wrongly. It is our responsible to find out what is the proper way to do it. And correct ourselves. This is a life long journey that can be cut short if you learn from others experience. For example, we can simply wash our laundry at the automatic washing machine before realizing that our white shirt have become colourful. If you had paid attention back at home, you might realize that your mom wash the white clothes separately, then this event could have been avoided.

Students out there, not everyone realize this but for me, doing things myself makes me feel that I have total control on my life. I am independent and I can do things myself. My problems are getting it correct and not being lazy. But I am pretty sure, as time fly by I will be capable of doing it.

There is more to life than books and library.
