Leaving a lasting impression
Hey ppl
I got big news... i think i can say it now...
I am quiting school...
No i am not joking.. really.. i sent in my letter of request to withdraw to my school director on thursday le. Yups... maybe sound as a surprise to some coz i am the type who would finish up things even if it was tough..well so i am a school dropout! wah lao.. sounds really unglam lah! well at least for now lahz.. i am still going to study and get my degree! a must!
Well i have thought long and hard abt it and it was not a very difficult decision to make either.. Business is something i have interest in, and i know it has good prospects. But its not something i see myself doing in the future... Being in a good industry requires ppl who are good at it also.. than u will find it fulfilling too!...
Finally my parents are also supportive.. as in they know its a big waste to give up after 1 yr into my poly... and also in the business industry.. but they understand that i must do somethin i am happy with also...
I was really ecouraged by them... my dad first word to me when he found out i was going to do this was " i am proud of u for making a decision"
My mum also said in confidence " u have had a good head over ur shoulders and i think u know what u know what u are doing."
My mum requested me to put this up for her..she said if u have a journal, write this down..."i am also nervous abt this".. haha.. well i guess everything has its risks right?
So what are my plans? i am going to study music overseas.. likely in the US.. course of study may likely be COnducting. But that will be confirmed 1 yr before i go there.. But now i have to go into NS first..
So of coz i want to finish my final yr of poly first.. which ends in another few weeks. so i will still take my exams...
So today i went with my mum to to CMPB to enquire abt army enlistment. I dint have to show any document but just self declare that i am ready for enlistment... So my medical date is up in first week of march.. and then after have to just wait to see when i can go in for BMT..
SOmething i am not looking forward to ever since.. but i have to get this done b4 i can go overseas..I mean its starting to excite me that i am going into army soon though.. i know its tough. buts its like something totally different for me.. its not like school or anything.. its the military! Where boys become men! haha...hmm.. does still that make me a boy now? haha
I know after i post this, many will start asking questions and stuff...Especially my school mates...haha.. wonder if ppl will ask me for farewell lunches... haha...we will see...
ok, so if u read my msn PM... i have to do some sad stuff. one of which is to leave NYPWO and NYPSO... they have been good so far.. and ppl even voted for me to become student Conductor. thanks! but i cant fill in that shoes liao... there are a lot of potential ppl in there!
k, have to sleep le... tml have to be there for Alumni prac at 9am..and Electone prac after that...and service in the evening...will update soon...
