Reality

It's 9th March today.
My foundation will be ending soon. It all went so fast, too fast even before I can settle down properly.
It's been 6 months plus now. I still have another 3 more months to survive college life and I'll be off to university to further my studies. Once my trial result is out, I'll be able to guess what will my actual result be. If I fail to meet their min English requirement, I'll be dead.

Just 2 days ago I had a briefing for the application on Monash. We can either apply for Australia or Malaysia campus itself and it is to be submitted by the end of March, which is practically 3 weeks away. I have to decide where I really want to study, and the most importantly, which degree I wish to pursue by then. To be frank, I don't really want to go for business field. I can't really see myself as a certified accountant, or an economist or a marketing manager or whatever in the future. I really have no idea. My instinct tells me to take up economics, or econometrics, or accounting and finance.
I'm scared of economics and econometrics. I don't know whether I can do it or not. Will it be worth going there?

But if I were to take up accounting and finance, I can't be a certified accountant, coz it will not be based on professional organization such as ACCA. Without it, I will not be able to receive high salary in future.
They kept on encouraging me to take up a professional course and the only one in their mind is ACCA. That's it! Now they're considering whether I should go to UK or not. I wonder when the hell UK came into picture? Are they having some kind of problem or what? The last time I checked, our current exchange with UK is about 6.3GBP. I can't believe they are even considering this. They even asked me to ask which university is applicable for my foundation. No, no and never. It'll be a whole different story if we have enough money, or having me to pursue medical field and all. But, sorry.. not for something common like accounting or anything.

Omg, I have to decide soon.


I planned to go oversea. But not now..not so fast. I'm not ready! I aimed for 20% of tuition fees scholarship for local campus. Seems like there's no hope. They increased the minimum requirement from the total marks of 320 to 365 already. It means every subject I have to score D or HD at least. That's impossible. I already aimed myself to get at least 320 and looks like there is no hope. My mom was so afraid of me failing my English, coz I said I will. She asked me to take IELTS, just to be sure I can enter July intake by then.

Besides, I will really miss my friends. For sure it'll be my dear animals, my college friends, and a few others. I already found my own group in college and I now know who my real friends are. I don't want to leave them.
