Who do you say so, parn??
Right over here, we only have a headcount of like 5 people in
one course??? And also, the subs we are taking are ...
well...basic...I did tried to retake O's but wasn't interested..and
the school is small and arrghh so like a thrid world country
classroom.
Whereas in uni, the facilities are big and you get to meet so
many people and everyone there is considered 'smart' and
well...their future is shining brightly...whereas mine is just
filled with uncertainty and insults....
Dear TS,
Your future is determined by yourself. There are many forms of
intelligence, not just by books alone. If you think by being
bookish and getting good grades, one is smart, you are
dead wrong.
The true intelligent ones knows how little they know, for
there is so much, so much, overwelhmingly to know in order to call
oneself smart. I ask you - is the engineer smarter than the doctor,
based grades alone? Nope, they each, if they can be honest,
will tell how little they truly know, for each day new discoveries
are being made in each other's trade.
Thus, never look down on yourself, or let anyone look down
on you. Some are good at regurgitating facts, some are
good at thinking out of the box, some are just plain lazy. You can
never tell who is who at a glance.
Just because you have no liking for academica, does not
mean your future is dim. You only need to find what are your gifts
and talent, good at, and act upon it with perseverance. As
long as you love what you are doing, confident of doing it,
and can make a cntented living with it, be happy always.
Some professors enjoy their work, some dont. Some
mechanics enjoy their work, some dont. This world cannot have
everyone as professors, or everyone a mechanic. Your gift will be
your contribution to our society. Just be the best that you want to
be, and can be.
But do know that you were not born, live to work, but work to
live. No person is or must be a slave to work. The
days off and leaves are times for you to socialise, never
to be neglected, so that you may live a full life. The
journey of life is made much more enjoyable with true friends you
make along the way.
Good Luck.
