read jielun's blog...
kinda moved to write something... i think one's future ultimately depends on the individual... i mean... no matter how their parents push them to study hard... at some prestigious sch... or something... even if they got a ph.D... they can alwaz choose to do something totally irrelevant to their area of study... like selling my favourite octoballs... no offence... octoballs vendors... just an example... admire ur trade... and how u make my favourite octoballs... my parents kinda give me the freedom of choice... my dad didnt mind when i said i might choose to go to a poly... to pursue aeronautical engineering... though my mum kinda wanted me to go to a better JC... she accepted the fact that i felt something for AJ... and left the choice to me... one incident that really showed me... i was mugging hard for my geography... couldnt finish my syllabus... went to my parents room... hugged my dad and cried... told him i might not be able to pass geog... that i might not get to a JC... coz alwaz thot thats where all parents wanted their children to go... and then to the U... but he actually said this to me... 'never mind if you cannot make it to JC... its okay even if you choose to go out to work now... as long as you know what you're doing...' that pushed me further... not to let my parents down... esp my dad... ----Stef stopped rambling at 13:22 --Link to Post |
