All decided !!
Wednesday, 6 June 2007
All the confusion confusion confusion have come to an end after the phone call from my parents from Lanzhou, China, last night. I had been so undecided on whether to choose Commerce on Business (banking & finance).
My dad has managed to persuade me to take up the Business one becuz it'll be more specialised. I told him that I was worried that I wouldn't be capable, decisive, fast and judgemental enough to pursue specialised occupations. Also, I was afraid that banking and finance might not be how I perceive it to be and might not enjoy it eventually. But he explained and explained and finally, boosted my confidence that I'll be able to make it in this industry. My initial choice was Business, but becuz of the recommendations by the Monash Rep and overseas friends, I was thrown into this web. That time, I really hoped that she hadn't brought up the Commerce course. However, after much reflection, the past few days have been worth it. At least I've a clearer picture of what I've chosen and my alternatives, so I wouldn't regret it when I reach there.
From this episode of decisions and confusions, I learnt that gathering opinions from pple of different backgrounds and experiences are essential in making the right choice. There'll be times when they do not give us any obvious directions. So after we're pass the stage of gathering opinions, the final route to take will be up to ourselves. Not forgetting, A LEAP OF FAITH - to trust and believe that everything will turn out right.So I've decided on my route and I won't look back.
