i think you should quit - my response is premised on the
assumption you have done well objectively .. that you not
yayapapaya la ..
the reason why i'm in uni is because i haven't really found
anything to be passionate about .. i chose my course based on what
i could get with my results - fortunately, my haphazard
decision has not burdened me. but can you say the same?
you know, if you no interest in science, you finish dip. liao
... so what? in the context of applying for a biz-related
job, it's not going to place you any better than someone with a
similarly irrelevant qualification. couple that with your lack of
interest = substandard results, you won't secure an initial
interview. whereas if you do decide to start SIM/private,
not only will your biz benefit, but you come out in
better standing than before, when applying for a biz.
job.
now let's talk abt your biz. - firstly, well done. i am
very happy to hear that in singapore, we have kids who think bigger
.. frankly, i am sick of hearing "success stories" along the
lines of, "XXX opened his [blog/cart/stupid shop] selling [insert
junk]. He has since made [insert measly figure]."
if you decide to quit school, you owe it to yourself, if not
your parents, to commit to proper working hours, and to apply
yourself fully to the biz. if you do that, i don't see why you
can't do better given the lack of constraints. even if CHOY you go
into liquidation, the lessons you have learnt would be
invaluable.
what you need, is to come up with a thorough and cohesive plan -
what you want to achieve, and what you will do to get there.
whether it means setting aside $2000/mth to pay for your private
education 10yrs down the road etc.
we're young. use this time to do what you want, and take risks
whose worst-case consequences affect only yourself (do this in your
40s, who suffers? your family).
EDIT: don't give l*nji*o reason that you won't have time for
your family k? sure can find time one .. i now study, work, sian
charboh, play and still have time have 1 meal a day with my
mom. people who give such excuses are just full of sh*t ... i got
1 coursemate whole day say uni so tough uni so tough, no time
do anything else .. one day i went his room, everywhere computer
games, manga and nonsense.
