Results would be out tomorrow via sms! I'm damn scared! Wonder how i would fare for my Issues. This subject is soooooooooooooooooooo important that it directly affects my final GPA. Can't believe my future is in the hands of ONE subject! This is totally absurd! But sadly, it's the truth, and i have to accept it. :(
What's more is that after the release of the results, i've to make a grave decision of which course and uni to pursue in, that would again, somehow affect my future career. Drats. Planning your future path ain't easy at all, and it's not true that you would always get what you want. What if you want to enter this uni to study this particular course you have an interest in so badly, however, your academics does not match up to the entry requirements? What do you call this? Not intelligent enough? Tough luck? Ironies of life?
Coming to this stage in life, where i'm still clueless over what course and uni to enter, it makes me ponder over many "what ifs".
1) What if i had scored well in my 'O' levels, such that i'm able to enter into arts course in a jc, and continue to pursue my interest in literature, would i be in a local uni now? Would i be pursuing a degree in arts and social sciences?
2) What if i had scored better in my GPA in poly, would i not fret over what private unis to enter cos' local unis are out of reach for me? Would i also not be fretting over the expensive school fees?
People have different aims and goals in life. Some are not easily contented and would desire to earn a high income, hence, would rather opt to study for the course that is likely to help them achieve this goal, despite not having any interest in it. Money is their key motivating factor here.
Others however, would prefer to study something they're passionate in. They're easily contented. Thus, it doesn't really matter if they're not earning a high income, just as long as they're able to feed themselves and their families, and be able to do what they love doing the most - is good enough already. Money is not their key motivating factor here, passion is.
So what's your goal in life? The former or the latter?
As much as i love to be the former, i feel the latter is more practical, as i do not have to worry about working, cos' i'm not! I'm doing what i love most and have an interest in. Hence, no matter what, i will stay rooted in my job and NOTHING can put me down for sure.
Owells, so much for the above thoughts. heh.
Best of luck to me for the results! =D
