Not really, I suppose.
You know how people always say that life is like a drive from on destination to another?
You start with the small roads, experiencing the little bumps as you drive across it.
Then you move to the bigger roads, to get where you need to go; the highways.
I have this habit of jumping headfirst into things. I always think to myself, 'just get in the car and after a bit you'll figure out where and how to get there.' I do get where I need to go... but it usually takes more time than it's supposed to, and also usually after a series of u-turns; all because I never actually plan my journey... never actually think it through properly.
And some times I don't even get to my destination because there isn't anymore time and I had to get somewhere else or the place was already closed.
There are also those times when you're driving really fast towards one destination, and then suddenly you have an epiphany that that place is not where you're supposed to go, and then you quickly signal right to take a u-turn (much to others' dismay. Especially in Malaysia, since no one ever gives way on the roads =.=) and at the very end you squeeze your way through the other cars, u-turn, and go back to where you came from so you could head back out to a different highway.
Last night I changed my mind about studying Economics during my tertiary education.
Daddy was the one who put the idea in my head... telling me that I should do something I'd actually enjoy. That got me thinking....
And now, I've turned on my right signal.
Because I need to make a u-turn.
