What is my dream job? – Definitive paragraph

My dream job is to be the next JK Rowling. I have been writing since I was 10 and have started to learn to write professionally in my late teens. I fell in love with writing because I have the love for words. I always have so many things to say. We writers actually write for many reasons. Writing gives me the kind of solace needed. The other reason is based on my research; it explained that we are driven by the need to communicate. Behind the need to communicate is a need to share. Behind the need to share is the need to be understood.

The kind of writings that I’m great at are journal writings and poetries. From there, it turns out I wanted to write something more than that. Every kind of stories holds its magic and I wanted to create magic for the readers. Other than learning to write professionally, I also wanted to learn to write in every aspects of writing. Just not any writings that are academic related.

It needs years to perfect my grammar skills and it will take years to get one book to be published. My mission is to write novels and make one of the novels turn it into film adaptation. I’m trying my best to avoid repetition and clichés. As beginners, I should at least learn how to write the easiest topic. The challenging part is at the same time trying to not make it boring for the readers. I have been taught to learn how to fail. It’s a must for all writers to face rejections. It is up to me to either accept or decline them. No one has promised that I’ll be successful.

In order for me to overcome my weakness is to critique others and push myself to read a lot. I have to believe that I am a writer not when others told me that I am. Sadly, I do not have such great writing portfolios like I do with my design portfolio. On the bright side, writing is design hence graphic design is related to writing. With what is taught from the design school, I am training my brain to keep my ideas flooding.   

I will write whenever or wherever I have an idea. Ideas are just everywhere. The kind of novel genre that I want to write is mostly about adventures when I do travel occasionally. Something about the world that educates people. Sometimes I’d either write what I know or what I don’t know.

Why UK or SG? – Comparison/Contrast paragraph

I want my novels to be well known either in UK or Singapore. UK has my idols in it; One Direction and JK Rowling are from there. It would be great if I get out of my comfort zone and travel more. There will also be so many opportunities at UK. UK is bigger than Singapore. Singapore is boring to me since I’ve lived there my whole life. Singapore is easier than UK though. UK has high pressure in the working world. Talking about the living cost, I believe UK is expensive but I’m sure I can survive. If my seniors can, so can I.

My favorite publishing house in the UK is the Bloomsbury Publishing. For the best-known publishing house in Singapore would probably be the Popular Holdings Limited. Of course there’ll be tons of publishing houses other than these two. The plan is to send the manuscripts to the non-famous publishing houses then to the most famous publishing houses. There are also writing workshops provided in Singapore. Writing is a long life dream career. I will be entering writing competitions online for a kickstart.

I dreamt that in my fantasies when my mission is accomplished, I have fans all over the world dying to get my autograph. I even got to create my own biography book for them and there goes my chance to be a victorious and humble person. I know I have not much experienced in writings, however I do wish that I’d really go to the university in UK but all the writers said “IT’S NOT WORTH IT!” and we shouldn’t really focus on selling our writings when we should just be concerned with our writings more.

Discovering how my passion is made, got me realized I continued to write because of my musical friends. They are the reason why I am able to write poetry continuously. I adore musical theatres and plays. UK has so many phenomenal musical theatres and while waiting for my mission to be accomplished, I could try writing one play. I just don’t think Singapore is quite right for me even though it’s easier than UK.

It’s just that Singapore doesn’t really have as much musical theatres as the ones in UK. UK is home to many writers and artist. So, I prefer UK but to be realistic, I would definitely go to Singapore. I’d earn my own money first if its not possible.

Who will I finally treasure my friendship? (Definitive paragraph)  Dream. Believe. CREATE. Share.

In my 20’s I will work hard to gain my professionalism. Apart from working, I want to enjoy with family and friends. Family always comes first and the one that I treasure my friendship most is with my writer friends and Marsha. My friendship with Marsha is not going to waste. We are really glued. I want everything that I want to be successful even my friendship. We are planning to keep us grounded and to prevent the phrase, “friends come and go.”  Friendship will keep me warm from freezing to death.

The way we are keeping us grounded is to be busy and we have been planning our future together this whole time. That one day, on Thursday when we were stuck in the middle of traffic, we were definitely bored and Marsha ended up designing our friendship symbol combining our portfolio concept together and called ourselves “Power Duality.”  Power Duality is when sun & rain taking charge in helping the world.

We planned to make a website about our work. We will work for the fanbase of who ever we’re fangirling about. We’ll design merchandises helping to promote the celebrities and the merchandises will be for free at first till we became like a ‘well-known internet designer sensation.’ Other than merchandises, I want us to make fanart and use that website to share all the knowledge that we learned in design school and share the talent that we have because we can’t just keep them all to us.  

Nothing will ever go to waste. It’s not about being famous, it’s not about being rich, it’s all about sharing. I also have a dream where we’d get to travel around the world together when we have enough money. It’s part of my bucket list to see the other part of the world and traveling thought me that I learn to appreciate what god made for us.

I’m so blessed to have this kind of friendship and how we have a lot in common. We will help each other with our future, whatever it takes. Nothing will go to waste and nothing will stop us. Power Duality is a source of “strength and bravery.” Even if we have to be long distance, it won’t stop us. We’ll work together virtually.

Where will my final destination take place? Like marriage… when I succeed..  (freely)

After marriage, I imagined that I’d be a verified author. I’ve successfully become exactly like JK Rowling. I’ll be continuously writing books for all ages and will be able to write all kinds of genres, touring, giving speeches and reading it out loud to kids like I’ve always wanted when I was young to be lecturing people about happiness. I am so mentally great at that.

If I’m rich I want to stay in a mansion where I can share this mansion with my entire family but that will be located back at Singapore. I will be the breadwinner. Renting so many luxurious car and finally will be able to ride a private jet when travelling instead of riding it with others. Or maybe, I should probably own three houses in three different countries and design one island.

Most importantly, I want to marry a husband who is a film director or a creative director whereby a husband could help me make my dreams come true and hoping for a happy family. I want to have kids who are a twins  and looking forward for more vacation! A vacation that will be worth it and memorable.

It would be cool if I make friends with the celebrities that I’ve been fangirling at. If none of these succeed, I always have a back up plan. Not the alphabetical plan but an impromptu plan and to keep friends surround me to keep me warm from freezing to death. But starting with great intension.

I will not be a stranger to my high school and college friends. An additional of my happiness would have one of the friends from high school and college to follow me till the end and feel as if I have more family than I know I have. The bestest of friends are the ones we keep.If my dreams didn’t came true, I guess all young mature people would probably advice to slow down.

When will my big projects start? I have many talents.

Obviously every writers dream is to get published. And I am predicting that when I’ve succeeded, I’ll be the world’s best-seller book in the history. I’d be a writer extraordinaire. Since I love to write poetries, I want to make like “the best of 500 poetries” book. I want to be able to go beyond mastering my poetries and being able to write millions of it till I can finally think of how to make music from that. I have this one of the writers syndrome where I always write till my brain is dried and the itch to write when my ideas came back only when I’m away from my computer.

I also have bit of talent with sketching, which is illustrating drawings for kids mostly. Therefore writing stories for kids with illustrations would probably be my first novel. Publishing from the non-famous to the famous and making the easiest ones to the hardest. I did attempt one of the writing competitions from Bloomsbury that we have to write historical fiction. That is the toughest genre of all genres. I tried.

I’m disappointed that I have to forfeit it due to struggling with deadlines this May. I will not give up. I will still continue to write till I make it into a novel. That would probably be my first novel. I’m proud that my friends love the plot. With writer’s talent of writing books, they are like teachers who teach readers almost about anything. Then why just why do teachers need to get a degree to teach? Anyone who has passion in sharing should be able to be a teacher! 

When not working, I exercise a lot at the gym. I have to stay fit&fresh not just sitting down working and eating. I do not mind being an athlete as my sideline job. I would love to be a tennis player.  I think I am developing different kinds of skills while growing up. I should definitely write my own cookbook, when I can cook like all mothers can. That cookbook could prove that I could cook it myself.

Every human being has so many desires. In conclusion, we have to be patient with our desires but to also work hard for it. Not all good things will come to us. We should take advantage to learn every subject and don’t be lopsided and left behind. 

How do I get there? How shall I pursue this?

To get to the top, I have to be from the very bottom even it means I have to be rock bottom. First, I’d force myself to work any part time jobs even if I don’t like it. Whether it’s in the UK or Singapore or if I’m still in Jakarta. I still have to work to earn my own life necessities. I can’t keep on asking my parent’s. Here are the jobs that I’ve listed. Freelance designer, working at a printing service which I’m still so unsure of, nail artist, art/English tutor, teacher assistant if I’m ever allowed, a salesperson and last but not least, ‘a waiter’.

I’m still having trouble choosing but I’m going directly as being an ‘art tutor’.  I do have interest in teaching kids. Any requirements that require an education that says up to ‘diploma’ certificate. Secondly, I wanted to be a nail artist but in order to be that I have to go through a nail art course which isn’t cheap and when I’ve earned enough money for it then why not. I find medi-pedi fun. I want something that pays fairly and a lot.

Thirdly, I would pick being a waiter for a change. Waiter and a salesperson do pay up to $1000 monthly in Singapore and that’s a grant for me! The advantage of being a waiter or a salesperson is that I get to be working at my favorite restaurant. I would pick my entire favorite place to work at and hop I’d get free food/drinks. Lastly, as I’m going through this, I will eventually hunt for more jobs in the future. Jobs that doesn’t make my life miserable. I’m thankful that my parents aren’t pressuring me to make me pay for everything.

When there’s a sudden change of plans. When I’m not going abroad, I’d just be working in (UIC Design Studio) UDS, going through extended monthly internship before I could officially work there. If I really am going abroad, I want my shift to start from 2pm, not in the morning because I really am learning to wake up early. I will work part time and writing at the same time. I will never give up on my writing no matter how busy I will get. The whole point is to be independent by paying everything for myself and make my parents proud.

Meanwhile… I’d write. I will take the risk to be open minded, willing to change and living in the moment. These are the three things to keep me motivated.  This is what I call adventure!

What is my dream job? – Definitive paragraph

My dream job is to be the next JK Rowling. I have been writing since I was 10 and have started to learn to write professionally in my late teens. I fell in love with writing because I have the love for words. I always have so many things to say. We writers actually write for many reasons. Writing gives me the kind of solace needed. The other reason is based on my research; it explained that we are driven by the need to communicate. Behind the need to communicate is a need to share. Behind the need to share is the need to be understood.

The kind of writings that I’m great at are journal writings and poetries. From there, it turns out I wanted to write something more than that. Every kind of stories holds its magic and I wanted to create magic for the readers. Other than learning to write professionally, I also wanted to learn to write in every aspects of writing. Just not any writings that are academic related.

It needs years to perfect my grammar skills and it will take years to get one book to be published. My mission is to write novels and make one of the novels turn it into film adaptation. I’m trying my best to avoid repetition and clichés. As beginners, I should at least learn how to write the easiest topic. The challenging part is at the same time trying to not make it boring for the readers. I have been taught to learn how to fail. It’s a must for all writers to face rejections. It is up to me to either accept or decline them. No one has promised that I’ll be successful.

In order for me to overcome my weakness is to critique others and push myself to read a lot. I have to believe that I am a writer not when others told me that I am. Sadly, I do not have such great writing portfolios like I do with my design portfolio. On the bright side, writing is design hence graphic design is related to writing. With what is taught from the design school, I am training my brain to keep my ideas flooding.

My favorite publishing house in the UK is the Bloomsbury Publishing. For the best-known publishing house in Singapore would probably be the Popular Holdings Limited. Of course there’ll be tons of publishing houses other than these two. The plan is to send the manuscripts to the non-famous publishing houses then to the most famous publishing houses. There are also writing workshops provided in Singapore. Writing is a long life dream career. I will be entering writing competitions online for a kickstart.

I dreamt that in my fantasies when my mission is accomplished, I have fans all over the world dying to get my autograph. I even got to create my own biography book for them and there goes my chance to be a victorious and humble person. I know I have not much experienced in writings, however I do wish that I’d really go to the university in UK but all the writers said “IT’S NOT WORTH IT!” and we shouldn’t really focus on selling our writings when we should just be concerned with our writings more.

My Dream Job: Prewriting

There will be more

What is my dream job? – Definitive paragraph

My dream job is to be the next JK Rowling. I have been writing since I was 10 and starting to learn to write professionally at my late teens. I fall in love with writing because I have the love for words. We writers actually write for many reasons. My reason for becoming a writer is because I felt like no one could hear us. This is why we express the feelings in order. It gives us the kind of solace needed. The other reason is because in my research explained that we are driven by the need to communicate. Behind the need to communicate is the need to share. Behind the need to share is the need to be understood.

The kind of writings that I’m great at are journal writings and poetries. From there, it turns out I wanted to write something more than that. Every kind of stories holds it’s magic and I wanted to create magic for the readers. Other than learning to write professionally, I also wanted to learn to write in every aspects of writing. Just not any writings that are academic related.

It needs years to perfect my grammar skills and it will take years to get one book to be published. My mission is to write novels and make one of the novels turn it into film adaptation. I’m trying my best to avoid repetition and clichés. As beginners, I should at least learn how to write the easiest topic. The challenging part is at the same time trying to not make it boring for the readers. I have been taught to learn how to fail. It’s a must for all writers to face rejections. It is up to me to either accept or decline them. No one promise that I’ll be successful.

In order for me to overcome my weakness is to critique others and read a lot. A LOT.  I have to believe that I am a writer not when others told me that I am. Sadly, I do not have such great writing portfolios like I do with my design portfolio. On the bright side, writing is design hence graphic design is related to writing. With what is taught from the design school, I am training my brain to prevent writers block and to find so many references to support this.   

I will write whenever or wherever I have an idea. Ideas are just everywhere. The kind of novel genre that I want to write is mostly about adventures when I do travel occasionally. Sometimes I’d either write what I know or what I don’t know.

Why UK or SG? – Comparison/Contrast paragraph

I want my novels to be well known either in UK or Singapore. UK has my idols in it. One Direction and JK Rowling are from there. It would be great if I get out of my comfort zone and travel more. There will also be so many opportunities at UK. UK is bigger than Singapore. Singapore is boring to me since I’ve lived there my whole life. Singapore is easier than UK though. UK has high pressure in the working world. Talking about the living cost, I believe UK is expensive but I’m sure I can survive. If my seniors can, so can I.

My favorite publishing house in the UK is the Bloomsbury Publishing. For the best-known publishing house in Singapore would probably be the Popular Holdings Limited. If I’m not going to the UK, I’d be entering the Bloomsbury writing competitions or any other writing competitions online. Of course there’ll be tons of publishing houses other than these two. The plan is to send the manuscripts to the non-famous publishing houses then to the most famous publishing houses. There are also writing workshops provided in Singapore if I didn’t get to study in the UK.

I dreamt that in my fantasies when my mission is accomplished, I have fans all over the world dying to get my autograph and I even get to create my own biography book for them and there goes my chance to be a victorious and humble person. I know I have not much experienced in writings, however I do wish that I’d really go to the university in UK but all the writers said “IT’S NOT WORTH IT!” and we shouldn’t really focus on selling our writings when we should just be concerned with our writings more.

What got me started me to write professionally is because I’ve discovered my center and from discovering of what my center is made me realized I continued to write because of my musical friends. They are the reason why I am able to write poetry continuously. I adore musical theatres and plays. In the UK has so many phenomenal musical theatres and while waiting for my mission to be accomplished, I could try writing one play. I just don’t think Singapore is quite right for me even though it’s easier than UK.

It’s just that Singapore doesn’t really have as much musical theatres as the ones in UK. UK is home to many writers and artist. So, I prefer UK but to be realistic, I would definitely go to Singapore. I’d earn my own money first if it’s not possible.

Who will I finally treasure my friendship? (Definitive paragraph)  

Growing up, I do not want to just be working only. I want to enjoy with family and friends. Especially not after 2 years of friendship with my best friend, Marsha. My friendship with her is not going to waste. I want my work or my mission to be successful and I also want my friendship to be successful. We are planning to keep us grounded.

The way we are keeping us grounded is to be busy and we have been planning our future together this whole time. That one day, on Thursday when we were stuck in the middle of traffic, we were definitely bored and Marsha ended up designing our friendship symbol combining our portfolio concept together and called ourselves “Power Duality.”  Power Duality is when sun&rain taking charge in helping the world.

We planned to make a website about our work. We will work for the fanbase of whoever we’re fangirling about. We’ll design merchandises helping to promote the celebrities and the merchandises will be for free at first till we became like a ‘well-known internet designer sensation.’ Other than merchandises, I want us to make fanart and use that website to share all the knowledge that we learn in design school and share the talent that we have because we can’t just keep them all to us. To dream. To Believe and to create.

Nothing will ever go to waste. It’s not about being famous, it’s not about being rich, it’s all about sharing. I also have a dream where we’d get to travel around the world together when we have enough money. It’s part of my bucket list to see the other part of the world.

I’m so blessed to have this kind of friendship and how we have a lot in common. We will help each other with our future, whatever it takes. Nothing will go to waste and nothing will stop us. Power Duality is a source of “strength and bravery.”

Where will my final destination take place? Like marriage… when I succeed..  (freely)

After marriage, I imagined that I’d be a verified author. Exactly like JK Rowling. I’ll be continuously writing books for all ages and will be able to write all kinds of genres, touring, giving speeches and reading it out loud to kids like I’ve always wanted when I was young to be lecturing people about happiness. I am so mentally great at that.

If I’m rich I want to stay in a mansion where I can share this mansion with my entire family but that’s located back at Singapore. I will be the breadwinner. Renting so many luxurious car and finally will be able to ride a private jet when travelling instead of riding it with others. Or maybe, I should probably own three houses in three different countries and design one island.

Most importantly, I want to marry a husband who is a film director or a creative director whereby a husband could help me make my dream come true and hoping for a happy family. I want to have kids who are a twin. And more vacation! A vacation that will be worth it and memorable.

It would be cool if I make friends with the celebrities that I’ve been fangirling at. If none of these succeed, I always have a back up plan. Not the alphabetical plan but an impromptu plan and to keep friends surround me to keep me warm from freezing to death. But starting with great intension.

I will not be a stranger to my high school and college friends. An additional of my happiness would have one of the friends from high school and college to follow me till the end and feel as if I have more family than I know I have. The bestest of friends are the ones we keep.

When will my big projects start? I have many talents.

Obviously every writers dream is to get published. And I am predicting that in the next 20 years or so I’ll be the world’s best-seller book in the history. I’d be a writer who is a legend. Since I love to write poetries, I want to make like “the best of 500 poetries” book. I want to be able to go beyond mastering my poetries to be able to write millions of it till I can finally think of how to make music from that. I have this one of the writers syndrome where I always write till my brain is dried and the itch to write when my ideas came back only when I’m away from my computer.

I also have bit of talent with sketching. Illustrating drawings for kids mostly. Therefore writing stories for kids with illustrations would probably be my first novel. Publishing from the non-famous to the famous and making the easiest ones to the hardest. I did attempt one of the writing competitions from Bloomsbury that we have to write historical fiction. That is the toughest genre of all genres. I tried.

I’m disappointed that I have to forfeit it due to struggling with deadlines this May. I will not give up. I will still continue to write till I make it into a novel. That would probably be my first novel. I’m proud that my friends love the plot. With writer’s talent of writing books, they are like teachers who teach readers almost about anything. Then why just why do teachers need to get a degree to teach? Anyone who has passion in sharing should be able to be a teacher! 

Apart from working, I exercise a lot at the gym. I have to stay fit&fresh not just sitting down working and eating. I do not mind being an athlete if my mission did not succeed. I would love to be a tennis player.  I think I am developing different kinds of skills while growing up. I should definitely write my own cookbook, when I can cook like all mothers can. That cookbook could prove that I could cook it myself.

Every human being has so many desires. In conclusion, we have to be patient with our desires but to also work hard for it. Not all good things will come to us. Like all adults say, take advantage to learn every subject and don’t be lopsided. 

How do I get there? How shall I pursue this?

To get to the top, I have to be from the very bottom even it means I have to be rock bottom. First, I’d force myself to work any part time jobs even if I don’t like it. Whether it’s in the UK or Singapore or if I’m still in Jakarta. I still have to work to earn my own life necessities. I can’t keep on asking my parent’s. Here are the jobs that I’ve listed. Freelance designer, working at a printing service which I’m still so unsure of, nail artist, art/English tutor, teacher assistant if I’m ever allowed, a salesperson and last but not least, ‘a waiter’.

I’m still having trouble choosing but I’m going directly as being an ‘art tutor’.  I do have interest in teaching kids. Any requirements that require an education that says up to ‘diploma’ certificate. Secondly, I wanted to be a nail artist but in order to be that I have to go through a nail art course which isn’t cheap and when I’ve earned enough money for it then why not. I find medi-pedi fun. I want something that pays fairly and a lot.

Thirdly, I would pick being a waiter for a change. Advices say that being a waiter isn’t easy or fun. Well nothing is easy. Waiter and a salesperson do pay up to $1000 monthly in Singapore and that’s a grant! Any big salary shouldn’t be easy. The advantage of being a waiter or a salesperson is that I get to be working at my favorite restaurant. I would pick my entire favorite place to work at and hoping I’d get free food/drinks. Lastly, as I’m going through this, I will eventually hunt for more jobs in the future. Jobs that doesn’t make my life miserable. I’m thankful that my parents aren’t pressuring me to make me pay for everything.

When there’s a sudden change of plans. When I’m not going abroad, I’d just be working in UDS, going through extended monthly internship before I could officially work there. If I really am going abroad, I want my shift to start from 2pm. Not in the morning because I really am learning to wake up early. I will work part time and writing at the same time. I will never give up on my writing no matter how busy I will get. The whole point is to be independent by paying everything for myself and make my parents proud. This is what I call adventure!
