05/04/2009 27 things I have to admit by age 27
I’d like to write an honest and personal piece about my journey to 27. Think of it like a confessional. Through the years, things that we may have disliked, we now love and our minds keep changing on a frequent basis.
The are many should have’s and some regrets. But the best thing about it is you learn from them.
Although there have been many hardships and adversities that many of us face, I wouldn’t have had any other way. Not ranked in any order, here are my life’s admissions to date:
1. I have to admit that I should have started to meditate at an earlier age
2. I have to admit that I used to procrastinate massively about really trivial things
3. I have to admit that I used to waste time and money on material things
4. I have to admit that looking after those material possessions kept me up at night worrying about them and stressing about trying to make space for the useless items
5. I have to admit that I used to pass judgement on others that did not deserve any of it
6. I have to admit that I used to feel the need to control others or situations
7. I have to admit that I have fallen for a few get rich quick schemes that have cost me dearly
8. I have to admit that I used to follow the crowd. In other words, I was a sheep.

15. I have to admit, I should stop doing so much overtime at work and spend more time with loved ones as well as hobbies/passions
16. I have to admit, I have wasted so much time worrying over this financial crisis. It’s only as bad as you think it is- avoid the media.
17. I have to admit, I clean and organise my place way too often aka a clean freak
18. I have to admit, I used to have a weakness for anything that is new or claims to do wonders
19. I have to admit, I used to always procrastinate about doing things rather than taking action to better my life
20. I have to admit, I can be stubbon at times and have let the pride get in the way, thus missing out on opportunities
21. I have to admit, I don’t care much for politics
22. I have to admit, I really don’t like beer
23. I have to admit, I’ve watched Beetlejuice more than 56 times
24. I have to admit, I now take better care in my spending habits and financial ventures
25. I have to admit, I’d rather clean the bathroom than do any ironing
26. I have to admit, I always seem to only see the good in people which has caused me some heartache through the years
27. I have to admit, I really get annoyed when people pass judgement on others except for themselves
