Parents Know Best?!
|
Okay so I've just sat for my first official exam in uni life... it's not so bad... but as usual I'm pretty sure I did badly... sigh... Anyway... made me think about the course I'm doing again... If you didn't know... I'm currently doing a combined degree of Civil Engineering and Commerce... But those who know me well enough know I've actually thought about becoming a chef... Yes a chef... I've thought about it quite a lot of times... often thinking I'm better of doing something stable like engineering rather than risking my future... But everytime I cook or I see someone cook something great... it makes me think of why I love cooking so much... I really do love it... skilled or not is a different question... I'm sure a lot of the professional chef started out knowing zip... I don't know how much my dad wants me to be an engineer or at the least, follow his footsteps and become an accountant (damn boring!!!!) but I'm pretty sure he thinks that is heaps better than a chef any day... But I think I would like cooking rather than doing calculations and writing and drafting and doing whatever engineers do... But if it was you... would you persue your dreams over going with your parents wishesif they want you to do something else?! Or are you one of those who are lucky enough to have supporting parents who encourages you to o whatever you want... AND what do you do when you don't know what you want to do?! Then do you do what your parents want?! I've always had trouble making decisions for my own life unlike everyone I know... Everyone has a plan... knows what they want to do... and are planning every step ahead... me... well... I'm just leaving it to my dad... Am I so lame or what?! I really don't know... totally confused... What's worst is that I have such a sort attention span... where the only thing which I've dedicated a substantial amount of time at is Taekwon-do, my w-inds. Forum and downloading off the internet... hahaha... and what if you are not good at anything... Maybe I'm just lazy or maybe I'm just not that smart... I've never been very interested in things which need thinking skills but rather I'm better with my hands... you know those hands on things like wood work... AH I don't know... I just want to o what I like... or at least be good at what I do... but it seems like right know I have neither option... Hahaha... So for those of you who are LOVING what they are doing... good on ya'... and for those who are not... well I know what it's like... so Cheers...!!! |
