do we really know what we want?

when i was in college, i craved for mcdonald's. i worked
part-time at a local pharmacy too. when my classes were
in the morning, i worked in the afternoon and vice-versa.
i barely made enough to pay for my college, and left a little
for my other expenses.

it all started when i needed to pick up my boss' son after school
and usually he would buy a mcchicken value meal on the way
to the pharmacy. on my side, i barely had any extra money for
luxury food so i would sometimes ate some of his fries and they
tasted so good. and of course, mcdonalds in the third world
country is something luxury and meant for the rich people.
yeah, the value meal is more than expensive than my favorite
CKT and milo-peng(iced milo). CKT = char koay teow.

everytime we got passed the drive thru, i would always ponder
when will i have some extra cash to buy mcdonalds. after i
finished college and got a job, i began to go to macdonalds
pretty often to revenge!! a few years passed and i said, i wish
everywhere i go, i see mcdonalds and i can afford it anytime.

i moved to the US and of course, my dreams are fulfilled. the more
i observed macdonalds and the people, the more i draw myself away
from the fast food nation. my dreams became a nightmare!!

i woke up one day and decided that, what i want is bad for me!!
