It all started when I was entering the camp of the National Service.What I can say about the experience of mine in these whole three months is,it's unexplainable yet leaving an indelible mark in my heart.To be honest,for those who want to escape from this so called "suffering and wasting time" programme,here is the advice,think twice or even you have think the second time and still don't want to join,I tell you,you will be missing out something that will change your life thoroughly,something that will have some "plastic surgery" of your mind.How do I know?Because I experienced that.
Indeed,the camp is an uphill task for most of the strawberry kids aka generation Y.I admit that in the first 3 weeks,I felt like the camp is really wasting my time,nothing special and nothing fun.I whined,I cried or even yelled at my dorm.I was helpless,hopeless and it was that significant moment for me to realize something.I was homesick,I was not the one that I thought I could be.Totally different from what I had imagined of.
Seriously,NS really coached us,not coached but taught us more about ourselves,more likely about the importance of being independent and so on.Before stepping into this camp,I thought that I was able to cope with loneliness,or was able to be independent,without the hands of the other people I could survive.But I was wrong,totally wrong.I couldn't and I don't even know why.Because of this,the plan of my further studies changed.Of course,study abroad is certainly better than anything here,but I still couldn't leave my little nasty house and still wanted to pester around with my family.I trashed the plan into the recycle bin in my mind and started to weep again because,I have no plan anymore!!!i have to start the very first step again and find my way back to the track.It really did blow out my mind.But luckily,it happened because,it makes me have a different of perspective and view of my life.
Right then,I started to think more widely.Before this,I chose to take Foundation programme because it is people say "quite safe" and also a fast unobstructive track to touchon the course I want.But the only problem is,if I have already taken the programme from the university,I couldn't transfer to the other university which is more ideal to me.That's why I said,luckily I didn't follow the path that I have created last time.Then,the thought of taking A-level swirled in my mind.A-level,Hmmmm..sounds pretty hard yeah it is literally really hard.But at the same time,if I could get a impeccably results,my dream would be materialized.So,I opted to choose this tough path because I know,to reach my goal,it won't be easy,and even it has hundreds of reasons to stop me from moving toward my dream,I would still look for the only reason that motivate me to realize my target.So at last,I chose to take A-level in local first before study in my dream university.But it is no longer a dream.I know,if I really strive for it,dream is not a miracle but it will turn into reality.
7/7/14,I'm waiting for you
