Isn't that what most people do their entire lives? We work hard in pri sch to get to a good sec sch. Then we work hard to get to a good college. then again to try to secure a place in a university, in a course that hopefully we prefer. Then, we work hard to get a good job. But that's not the end! we work hard to sustain that position in that job, or to climb higher, etc etc etc.
Recently, I've been pondering about what I wanna do in the future cos quite frankly, its been a question I've been putting off all my life. ha! and now, there is almost no more escaping. What do we want with our lives? can our future career really enhance that desire? or will it alternatively crush that goal, dream and hope. Where do we draw the line between being idealistic and realistic. Is it REALLY unrealistic to have ideals?
At this point, I'm torn between doing what I always thought would be interesting, and what I think i really really like. Psyc is something i feel would be interesting, but I really like lit. Yet, I have never been good at lit and the A levels have only been a one off thing where I did well. Then of course, the oh so familiar question comes from all around me: "what do you wanna do in the future anyways?" I DONT KNOW! heh. Counselor? Clinical Psychologist? Journalist? Teacher?
I know we shouldn't fret about our future because it is in God's hands. It's just that when you are pressed to make a decision which leads to something in the future, it gets so difficult. Sometimes, I think I should just to a double major and see what i wanna do next time. but i dont even know what are the implications of THAT. it's so frustrating and worrying. yet, I've been stuck with this question for so long, I don't feel anything anymore. heh. Hopefully I get into nus. Then I can take another year to try and decide.
Anyways, I dont know how I got to that topic. off to meet steffi and jean for lunch, then rakky for tea, then jm for dinner. what an exciting day ahead! PLUS I've been having breakfast with my mummy everyday! how wonderful is that? makes me not wanna work anymore hahaha.. but that wouldn't be "normal" would it? we were destined to work our butts off! haha.. kiddin kiddin. plus me moolah ish runnin low....... that's super bad. haha.. alrite, ciao for now! =)
