still waiting for you..

I am @Youth.SG



This is how i interpret this topic i have here.To me a youth's life in Singapore is all about family, studies, friends, co-corriculum activities, realtionships and entertainment!

First of all, i will talk about family first which is the most important factor in my own youth's life!To me, family has a great influence in my own life.This is because i am very close to my own parents, i spend most of my time with them and they will always try their best to spend their time with me eventhough they have busy schedules in their job and time is what i cherish when i am with them.My parents work hard to give me the best so that my youth life would be a enjoyable and peaceful one.Although i know that my family isn't a rich family nor a poor family but an average income family i feel satisfied already as i have both parents and they are good parents.To come to the important point, family is important to one's youth life because if one does not have a good family we youths would always have a high isk to take the wrong path in our own life so family does always play a part to our daily life.

Studies is equally important too.Now, not that i am materialistic, i am just trying to be realistic.Nowadays, in society most employers they look at the educational background of their employees.In order, to able to blend in to the society in future stuides in a youth's liofe is exceptionally important.This period of youth life is very crucial to a youth as this pretty much decide on our own future.One with a good educational background often helps in the application of our job in the future. Moreover, studying is one of the ways we get to gain more knowledge in.

Friends, which is group under social life is also important in a youth's life as it helps in helping the youth to learn how to communicate with people who has different personalities and to learn to choose their peers wisely.Having friends are helpful to me in the sense that when we have problems that we do not want to trouble our parents with, we share it with our friends. Not only that, we also can help each other in our work and my friends can inform me about my actions and my behaviours. Although, not all people are our friends, there are also some people whom i dislike but this is part of the process we learn in life to learn in how to communicate with others whether you like or dislike them.

In order to gain leadership qualities, co-curriculum activities(CCA) is the place where we learn all this qualities from.For myself, my CCA is band.Given the music background i have, which is having the ability to play the piano i chosen the CCA band which actually can help me in my musical background and it enhance me in knowing more musical instrument.For me, i belong to the percussion section, therefore i am able to have thisb opportunity to be able to play the instruments in percussion.Eventually, as times passes, i actually get to gain more leadership qualities like training my own juniors. From here, i learn how to lead others. Not only that, i also gain confidence through the many competitions and concerts i have in my band.These concerts and competition taught me how to face the thousands people off the stage and how to do the best in such situations.

Although, many adults will think that having a relationship at such a young age does no good to us, youths.But to me, relationship is part of a youth's life.Eventhough, i have not been through any relationships yet, i still thing that it does sometimes help us. There are many friends around us but we will still need someone we think trustworthy, someone that will not give you away and that makes one feel safer.

Last of all, i have entertainment.Entertainment like shopping, computer games and other entertainments helps by releasing our study tension or other tensions. Life is always like this, we need a balance time for entertainment, studies, families and others.

In conclusion, to me a youth in Singapore is a youth who thinks realistically and one who knows how to manage his or her time as well as balancing the time too.
