Months prior to SPM, I had a discussion about the public exam with my dad.
Dad: So mom said you're scared of sitting for SPM
Me: Yeah
Dad: Actually it's not you being scared. It's just a form of mental fear.
My interior monologue: Seriously dad, with all due respect and I really do admire your brainpower, can you possibly tell me the difference?
Fast forwarding to a couple of days ago, I had a brief talk with my mom about my future prospects. The thing is, I advertently have set my mind to accomplish myself in the field which I prefer the most. On the other had, my mom had an opinion of hers too. She respects my preference but suggested that it is optional for me to consider other courses as well. Even though it was quite brief, my mom left me pondering whether the decision that I made is the one for me knowing that she'll support me no matter what I chose to do. But I still have the option to do something that I've never thought of doing which could help me to establish myself in the years to come.
I don't have the faintest idea on what I should do. One thing for sure is I realised that there is a difference between opting for doing something which you've had in your mind for a long time and doing something that you've never devoted yourself into but it's worthwhile.
*sigh*
