life is a-maze

19 more days

Posted in babbles, family, school by emmiline on April 8, 2010

Can’t believe there’s only 19 more days to the end of my school life in NTU.
4 years of undergraduate life just flew past like that.
The worse thing is, I still have not received any calls from the companies that I have applied to.
Although I can only start work around mid June, it’d be nice to at least secure a job before graduation, before the final paper.
Oh wells. I need to be more sincere in my prayers.

Thoughts about pursuing a Master’s degree have been on my mind for a while.
To excel in my field, I’d most likely need a PhD, unless I resign to a fate of just working for the sake of working.
My dad thinks that girls shouldn’t study too much.
My grandmother (dad’s mom) also thinks that way too.
Girls should just graduate, get a job, get married and have kids.
Dad also said that should I go for Master’s now, by the time I graduate, all the money (?) would have gone into other people’s pockets.
He’s worried about being able to finance my brother’s tuition fees if he decides to go to Australia to study.
I know I should do my part by working and help with the finance, but I just can’t help but feel that I should pursue for more.

Oh Lord, please guide me to the correct path…
