Having already been through nearly a fifth of a decade and not knowing what to do in life made me pretty much panic these days. I probably know what I want but the lack of the courage halted my thought.
Surviving A'levels shocked me terribly and qualifying into a considerably renown university in the world brought my amazement into a whole new indescribable level. It was a good flashback that had inspired me to pursue what I want in life, instead of being dragged by the society.
I carry an interest in political studies and faithfully harbor hopes in studying it. However, many believed it was merely an impulse thought, and some even thought that, given my poor language, I can never succeed. But, is succeeding that important?
Because everyone wants to succeed, they always end up despising the things that they do. In another word, they thought that they can only gain success by doing something they do better though it is not something that they like and at the end of the day, they regret leading a boring life because of their meaningless pursuit in life - just to be safe (AKA kiasuism)
I feel that the real success in life, is to be uniquely yourself, to do something that belongs to you and not be configured by the society. I admit that I am miserably moulded by the society - Because I did not do well in my language, I have to give up my interest and this is how the society lands me into such undesirable state.
Right now, I have wasted a year and am trying to minimise the damage I have done to myself. As I forage for my dreams, I hope it boosts people's courage to start chasing their dreams as well.
