do wop be dah

i was indulging in one of my favourite pastimes- READING WHILST IN THE TOILET! *grinz* reading cosmo, when i came across this article on stressors of everyday life. i thought that the list didn't really apply to me, so i came up with my own..it was a survey done specifically on women between their late teens and early twenties. There was this lady who's 22 and working 50 hour weeks here in melbourne..you know i was thinking when i'm 22..i'll still be in uni..haha

cosmo's list
1. A death in the family
2. Catching an STI(sexually transmitted disease)
3. Being unemployed.
4. Being made redundant.
5. Getting pregnant.
6. Breaking up with a boyfriend.
7. Planning a wedding.
8. Not being able to have children.
9. Getting sick or injured.
10.Having too much work.
11.Starting a new job.
12.Wondering it they'll ever figure out they're true calling.
13.Making a career change.
14.Being single and having nothing to do on a friday night.
15.Getting older.

Much as i hate to be a goody two shoes, i think num 2 and 5, ought not to be on the list, i mean they're self-brought on afterall.

My list ( i will attempt to list 12 too)
1. Starbucks closing down (if that's ever possible)
2. A death in the family (but sadly, i think it will only affect me if whoever that person is means alot to me)
3. Finding a part-time job. (i'm not too stressed over it, but thinking about it can drive you a little nuts)
4. Getting my driving license
5. How i ought to really put in some effort and change my procrastination habits.
6. Do i really want to get married 10 years down the road?
7. How am i going to earn 20k a month, put my sisters through uni, buy a mini, and sent my parents on holidays once every 3 months.
8. Hagen dazz deciding to stop their bailey's flavoured ice-cream.
9. my once a sem exams
10.Being in a relationship
11.My friends' problems
12.Spending too much on groceries
13.Not being able to attend the mango sale going on back home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sounds terribly materialistic, but i think i'm generally really lucky, there are things that stress me out..rather maybe stress has become so "normalised" in my life, that it's just a part of it now. i guess my stress list is alot more about things that i would worry about say maybe 2 or 3 years from now...i'm contented, happy couldn't be happier..i just gotta find a way to stop buying so much groceries!!!
