Looks like I'll be paying for my own university fees after all. Just found out today that my parents won't be paying for me. Lolx. I naturally took for granted that the tuition fees will be paid for by my parents. If I had known, I would have continued working even after March. Oh well, no point moaning over spilled milk.

It kind of caught me unprepared. I mean, I intended to pay for my own fees, but this revelation makes it mandatory for me to pay by my own. Sigh... And there's the driving fees which I intended to pay by myself too. I wonder if it's all going to end up as talk. Being a student means being in debt huh? I could choose to pay after graduation, but compounded interest will be included. Plus, I'm intending to pursue an honour degree, followed by a Master degree too, by which I'm not sure if Master degree would be covered by the tuition grant. I'm so going to graduate in the negative eh?

I guess I will be paying via CPF which is kind of troublesome to apply for. There's the interest rate of 2.5% per month (not too sure yet), which is comparatively low compared to other banks. At least, the interest is paid to my parent's account instead of banks. =D And it would motivate me to be more hardworking since I'm paying out of my pocket. Hopefully it will come with more freedom, since I'm paying for my own fees. I doubt so though. If it's possible, I would like to go overseas with Biz Club, if anyone is ever organising. Hehe... =p But that would be impossible till I get my own flat.

And the question is, how is a student going to pay for his/her own fees? Taking up tuition would be the best and easier option for me now. It's just that I would have to revise my old syallabus of secondary maths, though I doubt I would have any problems with lower secondary maths. I could try teaching JC maths, but that would require even more preparation. I forgot most of the maths learnt in JC. =( Hahax. Although I would earn more. So for now, if you have a secondary friend who require tuitioning, recommend them to me okay? ^^ And no primary school student if possible. coz just one student alone takes up 3 hour per week of my time.
