Sunday, January 11, 2009 And so, where's the goal?

Like all the others students after A levels, I naturally start out looking for a job, to make better use of my free time. Lately, being cooped up in the office, working as a data entry during the rigid hours set me thinking, that perhaps I would be better off using my time elsewhere. What I'm doing now is what I used to scorn arrogantly, working for money instead of the other way round. Unfortunately, I have neither the skills nor the intelligence(at least not yet) to do the latter. I have so much more to learn, but not the time to do so now. Perhaps this calls for a change in lifestyle?

Then there is the "what next" issue. Assuming that I do so badly that I'm not able to enter into the course of my choice, or even the university, what next? Opt for retaking A levels entirely(full/part-time), or perhaps go to SIM for a part time degree while working. Oh yes, not forgetting the poly route into the Business Finance course and henceforth waste the 2 years in JC. At least it's better than wasting my whole life. What if I do get into the university? Do I really want to take the business and finance course? I could also consider design, computer course etc..

I'm also rather keen to take on this pet project that could well generate more "income" for me. No matter how much I calculate, it doesn't seem to be worthwhile to invest my time and money in it. There are just too many loopholes that I must cover. We'll see. For now, I will stand back and try to exercise patience over the impatience in achieving my overarching "impertinent" goal.

I used to wish I could grow up faster, but now I'm wishing that time would pass more slowly to give me more time to draw up some achievements in my life.
