"Do what you love most and make sure that you're happy doing it", can sometimes be an over-statement. You can't always do something you love without other people having second thoughts about it. They just wouldn't understand you. They would never understand who you are or what you want. There's always ways to talk you down.
But it really depends on yourself actually. How much fight do you want to put up with or just don't give a damn about any of them and JUST DO what you want. Trusting your own heart is the most important thing. No one can ever talk you down, if you believe strongly in yourself (heart).
You may be doing the "right" thing, but is that really the right thing to do? Doing that "right" thing is only what other people presumes to be the "right" thing. Therefore, it is never a right thing to do.
New beginnings are always so hard on the beginners. And the amateurs seem to know better.

Living the moment
The experience of living in the moment, I now understand. A lecturer of mine once reminded us to live in the present (this very moment), not in the past nor for the future. Do what we have to do right now and not later. It's a pretty simple concept actually, and you may say its common sense. We all know it. Of course! But do we ever really live in this very moment without wanting the next moment to come faster or slower?
My coursemates and I have just finished our degree course. Many have already started looking for jobs, internships, scholarships to further their studies and maybe many like me, taking it easy in the meantime, while we wait for the durians to drop.
As advance as our smartphones and internet connections have become, we seemed to have forgotten the person sitting beside us. We all know these technologies have greatly helped us in making things move faster, thus saving us more time for "other things". Well, I may be stating the obvious here, but I think you get my point. We may end up like in that Bruce Willis movie, The Surrogates, but that would be an extreme scenario, I hope.
I'd like to take this opportunity to tell the world that I'm already missing my friends. To my besties, Alen, ky, cw, and pk, I miss you all v. v. much. Those times when we crack up into laughing fits, pan mee for lunch and dinners, moo cows and many more, I will cherish them forever. Thank you for letting me live the moment! Let no distance or boundaries separate us. Ever.
