Was discussing with huiwen a night ago, on how immature and ignorant we kids were back in sec 4 and yet we were made to choose our future; the course to enrol into in poly. When I was still in secondary school, I never knew the meaning of studying. I just studied for the sake of studying and because my mum tells me to. Even up till secondary 4, I was still blindly attending school. I didn't realise that our teacher's naggings for entirely for OUR own future and not because she's a nasty old hag suffering from PMS every fucking day and loves to step on our tail all the time. Okay so i failed d Os once, and thought that was the hard final slap i needed to wake up from my deep deep sleep. So i retook my O levels and wasted a year, with a heavy heart. After which however, i felt was really worth the time cos I passed the Os on the second attempt, pretty well infact. And, i made many great new friends in the midst of retaining. The worse part however, is that I didn't have a clue on what i wanted to be in future at all. I liked drawing but i can't ever go far designing, unless I became famous. I didn't have the guts to take up Media studies since my english isn't all that superb. The only other thing i thought of was science, because i faired well for science and somehow, school of chemical life science seemed appealing and i'd say, high-ranked, compared to engineering or design. Also, business studies was considered saturated. I could have entered a JC, but upon hearing how tough it was compared to poly, i'd rather enrol into a polytechnic because it seemed cooler, easier, plus, i can wear nicenice clothes to school. And now, only when i have enrolled into the science course, THEN i realise its not really somethin i'd want. Like i've said i DON'T want to fucking work in the lab looking into the microscope 24-7 and inventing the next strawberry pocky-flavoured essence to add into your agaragar.
Why is it that we are made to choose our career path at the age of 16? Infact, 14. at sec 2 you'd be choosing your stream right? well, if you wanted to be a doctor but didn't do well enough to take triple science, there goes your dream, ditto. Okay make that age 13; sec 1. Cos thats when you start to study. At that age, we wouldn't know a thing about the working world out there, it only seemed far away. we'd probably just follow our friends into the D&T/combined science stream and end up regretting, though already having narrowed our once-bright future. we were far too, immature. Oblivious. Unready. Honestly. I only wish i had grown up faster.
