Do you think you are a good role model?

CK · 10-21-2005

just feel like ranting...

some ppl may not know...
there are someone who looks up to them..
there are someone who idolizes them..

i think...
i'm the oldest child in all my relatives....
i have always been put as a "role model"

i'm in the pressure to be successful
i'm in the pressure to get good grades
i'm in the pressure to be good at everything

i sort of disliked this pressure in the past...
however, now i don't think i hate it anymore.

i know a guy. he is extremely smart.
he can get good grades without studying much.
he is successful in almost everything he does.
but he plays a lot. he smokes.
now...
his less smarter cousin tries to be like him

his cousin was sooo adorable before...
but now...when i see his pix, he holds a cig pretending that he's cool.
i know that he has horrible grades too

this is just a feeling i can't put it in words..
i believe this smart guy just ruined his little cousin because of his actions

so ppl...
if you want to do something, look at the ppl and ask urself: "will my action affect ppl in a negative way?"

hmm... i think generally speaking..
i can be an okay role model~
i don't really have much bad habbits, except sleeping late... and swears occasionally.. and maybe bad temper
but i think those are controlable... esp the previous 2 ones... the 3rd one maybe harder

but @.@.. seriously.. i dunno who da hell looks up to me...
if my friends or cousins look up to me...
they should have quit their bad habbits XD

i am with yao on this one..
i am the 2nd youngest of my cousins..
but i dont live in tw..my contact with them is not that much..
however..i am the only one with the Hsu name that is going to univesity
even a bigger deal to them i am going to a canadian one..
so that kinda puts alot of pressure on me to get a degree and go back honorable and all
so my dad has face and my mom can be proud...

i dont think much ppl look up to me if at all..
cuz i am always the youngest amoungst all my friends...
but i would like to think if i had to be a role model..i'd be a pretty ok one..
i do my share of the work, i get ok grades, i dont smoke, i dont drink that much, i dont go out and party all night long...
perhabs the bad things are i watch too much tv for my own good, i stay on the computer for far too long, and i stay up wayy too late..XD

it's a good thing i dont look up to my brother as my role model..:laugh:
though i dont know why he just wont work harder..he's a smart guy!

well...many adults told me that im a good role model...in fact, my boss even asked me if my parents will allow homestay, because there was this kid who is a bit younger than me needs a role model like me.......however, i dont think im a good role model at all, and i wouldn't like anyone look up to me. i think every one should take their own responsiblity to live up to wut they wanna to be. i even told my younger brother that, if he thinks im his ultimate goal or a comparison to him then he is wrong, because even myself is just working towards my own goal. i told him that he should find his goal not to set eyes on others...
