Have been busy for the past few days though I'm not at all sure what I'm up to... maybe it's because of the fact that sch's starting next wk that I feel that time passes especially fast. Perhaps.
But I'm kind of busy too... meeting up with friends, spending time with mum, and oh, I just helped my mum with the chinese new year cakes this morning... (yesterday morning actually). It just dawned upon me recently that most of my conversations with friends (be it school friends, or pple from church, cell or crusade) were steered in a particular directions... gone were the days when we spent time talking about tv, teachers, families. We talk about plans for our near future and stuff like that and it was during these times that I realised that I'm unlike many of my friends. It was a choice that I've chosen the moment I signed on the dotted line. I wouldn't say that it is a bad choice. It's just that while many of my friends are busy searching and trying their hands at everything they can, (so that they will ultimately and hopefully find out what they enjoy doing and make that their future) I'm like there, not able to really understand why they are doing that. Things will be different if not for that signature. But I guess this isn't that bad either. I don't think I want to spend my entire uni life worrying about my job prospects and so on... I rather focus on my studies knowing that I'll have a job when I graduate. I don't like uncertainties.
But it isn't that I don't plan my future as well. These days, I feel like doing a master's degree after my bond or maybe even while serving my bond (if I can...). Up till only recent times, I seriously doubt that I'll go beyond my degree. But I guess there's really no harm in studying more. What's more, many people (such as in Taiwan if I'm not mistaken) do their masters' immediately after their degree. So I guess that a master will eventually become a passport for a brighter future soon. I don't know...
Writing about these things make me want to pick up my books and study now. Don't you feel like doing that also?
