am sooo freeeegingg bored with Nm3220... research just ain't my thing
bored boringgg bored bored.
Trying to do the assignment but just get so distracted cos itsss borrreeenggggg studying about research methods is the most borreeenggg sai everrr! academic journals boreeee me to nutsssssss
i cant be a poly/uni lecturer alr... hahahaha
anw so decided to blog about random thoughts to relieve boredom!
Qi said that he's gg apply to SIM for finance and banking... reason? Cos he claims to LOVE money & be obssessed about it.
Seriously I think he saysay only. I think the most money grubbing thing i've ever seen him do was in sec school, when he went around class collecting ten cents from everybody (why everybody so guai guai give him i really wonder) and then use the money to pay for his recess.
SO JIAN RITE!! hahaha.. ten cents frm everyone about $4 alr and he don even needa fork out a cent. Ok tt was really q funny so i rmb up till now.. LOL
Other than that I've never seen him behave lk money is super impt or what... lk find means n ways to cut costs or smth... usually he's too lazy to do so...like he rather spend on petrol and parking than take public transport..(yay for me) hahaha... sooo i donno why he claims to love money either!
But anw it just made me think about what was important in life... money, or doing what you like? To me.. doing what you like is most important.. and i think in the end it'll help you make money too.. even if u don't see it as a real profession or think u cant earn much outta it in the beginning! Eg. baking donuts or smth... in the end if you bake damnn well then ull get famous and the money you earn can feed you for the rest of your life!! lol...
but really, it beats thinking that "this job can get me a good income", and then not liking what you do. In the end you'll never excel or be good at it cos you don't have enough passion to perservere in the area, and you'll jus end up with a normal income and a boring lifeeee! Which is the story of many ppl who become auditors.......
Having a passion is really important, cos while researching for projects I read a few success stories, on how they successfully created a money-making business through perservance and passion! And yeaa i think it's true, if you really like what you're doing, it will help you perservere even through tough times and there'll be a breakthrough someday.
Which brings me to another point, which is that it really sucks when you donno what you like or are good at.
Or it sucks to be above average for some things but never exceptionally good at something.
I think it's better to suck at everything else and just be damn good at one thing!! isnt it? then you will know that this is IT for your life! dont need to think and wonder so hard.... SIGH but then again if the society's set of valued skills is not your set, den you will become unable to adapt and be extinct...
But with that said I'm not saying my life sucks.. lol just saying i wish i knew what i wanted in life
Then again, I'm q comforted to know that actually there are alot of ppl who still dont really know what they want to do in future.. i guess it's not just me!
But as of now my choices are: 1) PR 2) Freelance designer!! Hahaha ok less probable, but i really enjoy designing, just that i dont have the technical skills and qualifications or portfolio and am behind many other poly students....and its really.. easier said than done! where to find the business right? hahaha but i really think it'd be damn cool if i can jus do freelance, cos i hate 9-5 jobs, admin work, and imagine in the future if i have kids then i can still do work even from home!!! How awesomee?? hahaha
I really think the singapore education system doesnt prepare ppl for the workforce. AT ALL. Doesn't even give ppl a good idea of the kind of jobs out there so people dont even know what they want to be in the future.
Maybe that's why so many ppl are becoming teachers nowadays. No offence to teachers & teachers-to-be! But it's the kinda job which i'll consider only when:
1) I dont know what i want in life 2) I'm not confident tt my skills set will help me survive in the real world, so i need a safe haven 3) I don't think i'm much good in anything else 4) I'm not sure if i can handle other jobs outside, and teaching seems the most safe and familiar thing to me
But that said, it's not like i totally wudnt consider teaching! I think its a stable job, it's more fun to interact with students than have a boring office job, and i think its less stressful to work for the government than for independent businesses. Besides, singapore is hiring teachers like crazy so it's easier to get a job!!
Ok i'm tired after rambling.. time to start working on my assignment and go to sleep -.- pfftttt
