THINK in Motion

What's today topic? THINK IN MOTION ! What is it? Read on to find out then.



Recently most of the Form 5 Graduates are chit-chatting , gossiping , asking , telling , answering the same thing over and over again. Guess what is it ?

Ans : 1. Where are you going to study?

2. What are you going to study ?

3. What you want to be?

4. What scholarship is available?

............ Revolving around here.........



Honestly , I really have no idea what am I going to be. No doubt I have my dreams but whether to achieve them or not , it's still another problem. I have a lot of interests. And I like to expose to many things around me , that applies to knowledge as well. People always told me that I am good in many things so whatever I chose will not be a problem. For me , that IS the problem. I have no specialisation into certain field. I conclude that choosing a career is a hard time. Sometimes you plan to be this , but ended up going into another career.

Conclusion : I don't know what to study.



Science stream and art stream. Another problem for me. In Malaysia , people always have misconcept between these two streams. In their mind , science stream is for the clever and diligent students while the poor and weak will be in art stream. Actually both of them are of equal standard. However , I do admit that science subjects will be tougher than art's. Having studied for 2 years in science stream , the fame of "science student" has really made me proud of myself. However, to think that taking science subjects for my A Level , it will be terrible. Why ? Because I only love Biology. For Physics and Chemistry , I only love to know them and not study them. So , salute to those who take science subjects in their further studies. Now , thinking that I am going to venture into art stream , the pressure of science is still there. Friends around me told me that they wanted to study chemical engineering , biotechnology (which I thought I might take it) , biomedical science , pharmacy , hydraulic engineering , aerospace engineering....yada yada.... The title itself already overpowers the art stream's. Ya I know , I'm having the pre-conception like the misconcep. Imagining that they're having higher pay is another problem. Some told me , "Look at the singers or actors , most are not from science stream but yet they can earn more than the science students who struggle all their lives in development and discovery." What does this prove ? Art is also comparable to science? Well , I dont know. As that is the singers or actors' business. They earn more because they got their own assets- vocal and of course , appearance and bodyshape. The science students might as well undergo operation to have an attractive appearance and lipsync to synthetic vocal. Ya....sounds nice but then without them , mankind will not develop anymore.



Where to study? Have you done any research on that college? Have you collected opinions about the college from others? Compare this and that will end up having youself sick. Headache. Best way ? Dont study and go looking for job ? CRAZY! Calculate how much will you earn a month then. Trying to debate with me that working in Kenny Rogers will earn you RM3.50 per hour and if you work for 11 hours a day , a month you can earn RM1155 as your basic income not including EPF , Bonus , Commission and such ? Claiming that the pay is almost the same as a fresh engineer? You might be right for some points but I totally disagree. How are you going to have your own free time? An enginner need not work 11 hours a day to get that pay. And he or she might still got plenty of time to spend for leisure. And his/her pay will not always be that low. As time passes , the pay increases. Topped up that he/she is in the professional bodies , the basic income alone will surpass yours at least by 2 times. And you cant possibly work 24 hours a day , it is not 7-11. Okay okay , I know you're fuming. And shoot me back that you're happy with your job. Ya , I know but I am just telling you that time wise + salary wise = good job.



You wont know until the last , teaching is another perfect job as well. Be a well known teacher , then open a tuition centre , you earn RM60 from each student. Supposing you have 50 students in a class . You earn RM3600. And that is just for 1 session. By renting rooms to other teachers and have more session , utilities and RM500K for the shop will be earned back really fast.
