degree dilemma

  Hello world, been a while since I've posted so here I am.
Its been.. 2 years since SPM and 2016 is the third.
   And yes, I have yet to make an absolute decision on what to do for my degree yet.
Sorry not sorry, haha if anyone who at one point asked me what I wanted to do and got a different answer every time.

  I think that taking my time deciding has been somewhat worth it. It seems that the cause of my constant change of decisions regarding career stems from the people around me. Mostly my family, where they react differently every time I set my mind on one career. When they give a positive reaction, I automatically go "okay, I'll do this then." But then not long after they keep filling me with their own opinions and what rumors they heard on the career. All my resolutions on that career gradually gets dabbled on with doubt and uncertainty.

 My grandma was so proud when she thought I was gonna be a dentist. She gave me a pat followed by a proud praise.

 My sister recommended Traditional Chinese Medicine. When I said I might take it up. She kept filling me with stories from her TCM doctor. But then I realized I couldn't stand the smell of herbs. That was that.

Then there's veterinarian. My mom was so confident I could do it. I would've taken it too if not for the expenses and my fear of reptiles.

Psychology, It got the worst reaction out of everyone. So, we'll skip that dreadful experience.

Which is why,

Fuck it.

Yes, fuck it.

I'm gonna pick something that I like to study regardless of their reactions. Easier said than done but suppose I'll try to make a point to hit the library as often as I can to research on what I like. Best advice ever from my cousin sister. "Go to the library." And so I did. I now know what courses I'd stay away from. For example, nutrition is a big no-no. As well as aquaculture.

Stay tuned to my journey to picking a degree. Till then, Have courage and be kind peeps :D
