Somewhere along the lines of maturation I have morphed into a lesser cynical and condescending human being. I guess when something good (which is very rare in my life) happens, you learn to appreciate things a whole lot more.
I've never been into big houses or expensive cars or a yacht or a glittery microphone (shoutout: Mariah Carey). So now I need to consider what to do with my money. I was never raised to over-spend; heck, my family started off poor as hell. I'm pretty content with having a laptop with almost-anywhere-internet-access, World of Warcraft (although I have so few time to play these days), a good book, and a nice apartment over looking the city. Obviously I'm not some billionaire, but I do know I need to pay it forward (is that the right saying? or is it pay it back, god.), I just don't know *what*. A few business moguls whom I've been talking to have persuaded me to get into financial investing and shit like that; that may be a good idea really, if worse comes to worse and I fall flat on my ass, I need to have at least a decent sum of money in the bank.
Was it Biggie Smalls, or was it Tupac that said, "mo' money mo' problems" -- too true.
Right now my manager is trying to branch me and a few other groups into the "western market". Gross. I'm pretty happy swarming through the Asian countries. Asian fans are very cute, I must admit. Breaking into the U.S market would be such an uphill climb. Minority within a minority within a minority. I'm happy to at least be able to talk *that* much about my life, besides, there's a bucket load of male Asian singers out there, and hell, all of them look gay. So I'm sweet as far as anonymity goes.
Another three weeks and I get a 1 week holiday, ahhh I can't wait!
