It's time for me to start thinking seriously about what I wanna do in the future.
It seems surreal. 2 years ago, when I started Form 4 and had to pick a stream, I told myself, 'It's okay, I still have so long more to think about it.' So I went with science stream to give myself more options.
And now, after all that was said and done, whenever people ask me what I plan to study, I always say 'I'm not sure yet'.
I feel disappointed in myself.
I want to study culinary arts, but the fact that I could be spending my life working long hours and on weekends and public holidays while everyone else is off enjoying themselves kinda makes me depressed.
But then again, I can see myself loving the subjects I would be taking, so... hmm.
Side note :
I feel annoyed when people assume a career in arts/culinary arts etc is for stupid people. Really.
I can't take it when people think that any course that isn't challenging or isn't known as one of those "hard" courses and assume that everyone taking that is less smart than those doing the "hard" courses.
It doesn't automatically make those in "hard" courses any smarter. (doesn't apply to everyone though)
I'd say those doing what they really have the passion and interest in, and not just taking some course because it makes you sound impressive when you tell people about it, THOSE are the smart people. Not those doing something they hate just to sound intelligent.
Sorry for the sidetrack. But yeah it just pisses me off.
3 more months to figure out what to do with my life !
