The first day i stepped into Bradford, i was so brave and felt confident enough to pick specialist maths and physics as parts of my foundation study courses. Until the last two weeks before the first term holidays, only found that I have no interest on those subjects (involving figures). i had the courage to accept the fact that my parents insist me to pick up engineering course in Uni. well, they knew that i have no direction on which path should i head to, and, decision made was, to be an engineer. thats it!
Dad has always had such a strong confident that i would become a successful engineer and will be employed by a big patroleum compony as where my brother-in-law works now. yea! I admit! brother George has been quite a successful project engineer since graduated from uni Adelaide, and thank god my sis found him as husband. Yea, but, after few weeks studying specialist maths, i just found that spa maths just sucks! Everything i know about spe maths is just sucks. i've got no tallent on counting, from that on, i told my self, my parents and my sibblings, (except my brother who never borther about my study progress) that i m stupid in figures. and believe it or not, I dont even know anything about banking stuff. My parents paid a visit on me during the first term holidays. i believed they were so worried on me, they seemed sorry to me on not giving me the freedom to what i wished to study. The very first word when they met me at the airport was:'how are you going on with your studies'. I refused to give a damn. howver, what was in their mind i could read clearly. saying that i was so down that time.
months later, i tried my very best to cope on specialist maths. though it ended up with only a mere improvement, i was quite satisfied. because, i know that that isnt my field. I've been pushing myself so hard, Forcing myself, saying that i really gotta pass my foundation studies. and thats it! my mind keeps pushing me! saying that my parents have been spending so much money on my studdies. that is such a great chanllange to me, telling me that i should not disappoint'em. "We work for these few years is all for you." i felt so sorry when they mentioned this to me. Yes i m clearly understood that my dad's job isn't that easy! i believe even my brother cant handle it well. All only involve physically!
that is a big motivation ever for me to continue on putting a great efford to hit 77% in my foundation year. this is my bigest chalange eever in my whole life of 18 years.
the soul of life construction, I am having such a great challange ever in my life, ie, in my foundation studies (Bradford College 2009).
lastly but not leastly, from the bottom of my heart, i thank my parents alot, giving me apportunity to study abroad. you played yr role as great parents ever, u moled me up, giving me so much supports! I will never ever forget my role as a child (the youngest one).

ReplyDeleteunless you not to late to think such way, recalled that, last year, you told us that your parents are not good enough, don't give yourself too much pressure, if i were you, i am glad f myself, because till now, I still such a lazy guy, I too worry of dissapointed them, but how, I am so lazy, haiz ~ when you think of ownself problems, try to think about others who even worst than you, take care my buddy, love you, hehe
ReplyDeletethanks KTLOON. yea, i admit lar.. that time didntr know how difficult a child will be without parents beside'em. now, thousands of miles apart, at least it comes to a knowing that they seem important. i mean, i still need their supports..
