WHAT DO THEY SAY ABOUT PATIENCE?

I wanna be a billionaire so fricking bad
Buy all of the things I never had
Uh, I wanna be on the cover of Forbes magazine
Smiling next to Oprah and the Queen

Oh every time I close my eyes
I see my name in shining lights
A different city every night oh
I swear the world better prepare
For when I’m a billionaire

Yeah I would have a show like Oprah
I would be the host of, everyday Christmas
Give Travie a wish list
I’d probably pull an Angelina and Brad Pitt
And adopt a bunch of babies that ain’t never had sh-t
Give away a few Mercedes like here lady have this
And last but not least grant somebody their last wish
Its been a couple months since I’ve single so
You can call me Travie Claus minus the Ho Ho
Get it, hehe, I’d probably visit where Katrina hit
And damn sure do a lot more than FEMA did
Yeah can’t forget about me stupid
Everywhere I go Imma have my own theme music

Oh every time I close my eyes
I see my name in shining lights
A different city every night oh
I swear the world better prepare
For when I’m a billionaire
Oh oooh oh oooh for when I’m a Billionaire
Oh oooh oh oooh for when I’m a Billionaire

I’ll be playing basketball with the President
Dunking on his delegates
Then I’ll compliment him on his political etiquette
Toss a couple milli in the air just for the heck of it
But keep the fives, twentys (?) completely separate
And yeah I’ll be in a whole new tax bracket
We in recession but let me take a crack at it
I’ll probably take whatevers left and just split it up
So everybody that I love can have a couple bucks
And not a single tummy around me would know what hungry was
Eating good sleeping soundly
I know we all have a similar dream
Go in your pocket pull out your wallet
And put it in the air and sing

I wanna be a billionaire so fricking bad
Buy all of the things I never had
Uh, I wanna be on the cover of Forbes magazine
Smiling next to Oprah and the Queen

I wanna be a billionaire so frickin bad!
I am pretty certain that everybody gets the tune. It's Billionaire by Bruno Mars (half Filipino) and Travie McCoy which had its way to top since day one on the music chart of the Philippines and the world. these two guys are i believe not as big before they had the Billionaire and they've took our hearts after that.

why?

maybe because we like the tune and the style and the genre of the song.

or we like the singers.

or perhaps, we all can RELATE of what the song's implying.

early this morning i have read a post from my suth colleague that goes like this,"Andrea Sibal: i wanna be a billionaire so freakin bad..buying all the things i never had..( wen will this be..huh..so tiring to wait..)"

she got tired of waiting for the "time".

i got it, it is never easy to wait for something that you badly wanted, when everything does not make sense except the fact that you can dream about it for now. and dreaming doesn't bring any contentment, it would instead make that eagerness live an immortal life and we end up being frustrated because we fail to have the right attitude -- PATIENCE. 

we heard it a million times before PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE. but the truth is, we never really knew the essence.

yes, it will take time, but did anybody realize that that time of wait will be paid of? or did anybody do the right thing while waiting in line?

in the perspective of a 20 year-old girl or 7,319 day-old young lady or 175, 656 hour-old lady or 10,539,360 minute-old young woman or 632,361,600 second-old woman as of 7:14 am of the 29th of January, 2011 -- IT IS NEVER TOO LATE, no matter how many digits you have in your age. we can still make up for that goal.

in that note, we have to do something rather than skulking around and just WAITING. we have to remember that we have to do something to be SELF-MADE. it doesn't necessarily mean we have to work to death, but at least, MOVE AN ASS!

finally, there's just a fine difference between an intelligent and determined, and more often that not the second over-powers the first. at the end of the day, it would still be not what's on your mind but what is in your HEART. never treat yourself an inferior, rather, believe that no matter what happen your shortcomings don't define you as a person and as a winner. Rene Descarte once have said "I THINK, THEREFORE I AM", so if we think we can, then, we have to do it!

so, THREE things, and they are:

  • BE PATIENT
  • MOVE AN ASS
  • IF YOU THINK YOU CAN, DO IT!
