It's been a good year, hasn't it?
In less than a minute it will be the beginning of a new year - 2009. The beginning of a new school year filled with laughs, shouts, fun and maybe a few well-concealed tears. That's all i ask of the new year i guess, that the happiness exceed the sad moments. That all i remember when it's year end again, is the happy moments filled with laughter...or just silent contentment.
Next year; 5S2 and SPM. The dreaded SPM. I'm actually terrified, not because of SPM, but what happens after. Exactly. What actually happens after? I still have no clue...what i fear, is the unknown.
I've always thought leaving school and working would be so much better. No need for studying, no need for passing up homework and listening to the boring speeches of the teachers...which student doesn't dream of escaping that torture? It's the freedom we crave. But now in the pre-stepping into society stage, im actually afraid. We actually have to make our own choices now. Choices that would lead us up our own paths for the rest of our lives. From kindy to high school...we didn't need to make any life altering choices. All we know is we go to school because we have to. It's what everyone does. It's what our parents want, there's no way around it. Even after Form 3, all we had to choose was our streams. There was only three choices and ultimately, our parents "helped" in that decision too.
But there are hundreds of courses. Millions of outstanding colleges and universities. And even more jobs to choose from. That's what i don't want to face. So many choices, so many voices...how do you choose the right one? How will you know that 10 years later, you will be living a good life and telling yourself you made the right choice all along?
Hmm, i best let the pieces fall where they may.
I sound like a worried old woman talking about such things xD
Happy New Year everyone! Wish you all the best =)
