I haven't really been myself for the past few days. Feel as though I have become somebody totally opposite, someone that I don't even recognise anymore. I am not saying it's a bad thing, but not being 'me' isn't really me anymore.
My whole of yesterday was spent doing Art. I have promised to complete at least 4-5 boards by Monday. It's possible if I do my work during the weekends. I have 4 periods of Art on Mondays! Sounds crazy, but I would prefer this to 4 periods of either geography or economics. At least during Art lessons we will be in our own corner completing our coursework, rather than sitting in classroom style listening to the teacher teach.
I had a very weired, but fruitful dream last night. It was as though my heart was giving answers to all my questions I have asked so many times ago. Or maybe it was god sent. Now that I have the answers, I'm unsure of what I'm suppose to do. Never mind, I will just leave my fate in the hands of God. Whatever happens, happens for a reason.
In my last post I promised to share with you my future's master plan, so here it is.
Ever since the year end holiday started, I have been asking myself over again, "what is my ambition?" This was the same exact question I had asked myself ever since I was taking my O'levels examinations. For the past 2 years, my answer was to go into NUS to major in geography, after in which I will work as an urban planner. Geography may be where my interests lies, but not my passion.
While I was working as a teacher, I often ask my students "what do you want to be when you grow up?" There were doctor, air steward, toy creator, policeman, accountant, ... ... as answers. Then, many of them asked me "Teacher Grace, what do you want to work as?" Never once did I give "urban planner" as the answer. In fact I gave "farmer" as the answer. Hahas. After all, farming is my dream. Living life at its simplest is also my dream.
Even though I do not know what my ambition is, I know I wanted a job where I can help others and save lives. For the past two months, I have thought of becoming a social worker. And also thought of impossible stuff such as becoming a doctor or a nurse.
It was only a week ago, that I have finally decided what my passion was. It was after thorough research, that I finally decided on my ambition. For Audrey and Tiger and most importantly for myself, my ambition is to be a veterinarian.
It may sound impossible since I failed O'levels science and I've not touch any science since then. And science is a requirement for that course. But since that's where my passion lies, I am going to have to work very hard for it.
This year, all I need to do is to concentrate on doing my A levels well. After my A levels, there will be 3 routes for me. The only school to offer veterinary studies is Temasek Poly. That would be the first and the most unlikely to take route. The second and third route would be taking veterinary studies in Australia. In either the university of Sydney or Murdoch university and vet courses are frigging expensive!
If my parent can't finance my study, I go to the local university and get a degree in geography first. While studying geography, I would go take private A levels for biology/physics. After I will work a few years to finance my study. Then would I go over there to pursue my passion. The downside; I would be very old already (maybe reaching thirty?). :( This route will be the toughest, but the most fruitful. At the end of the day, not only would I have 2 degrees, work experiences but also a chance at pursuing my passion.
The third route would be, if my parents would be able to finance my study, I will waste next year studying private A level biology/physics. Before I try my chance to enrol into the university. This is also a very unlikely thing to happen. So that leaves me with choice number 2.
And if all fails, then I would be a good girl and take over my parent's advertising business. Seriously, it better not fail! I don't want it to fail. :(
Dear Lord, with utmost believe, I'm putting my master plan in your hands. Because "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
By the way, my dearest Audrey is back from the hospital. And my first training to become a vet was to feed her the medicine. Took a whole hour to just get the medicine down her. I had to wrap it up in slices of beef and wrap the medicine inside before she was willing to take it. Her physical condition looks terrible. She hopping around with three legs, and as for her body, think I will have to take a picture and show you. But thank god, she is fine and looking all healthy. I might be sleeping with her in the living room tonight, lest my mum wakes up tomorrow and finds the place in a mess.
That's it for today, hoped you enjoyed reading my post. goodnights and take cares. (:
