Headache is coming. The feeling of vomiting is coming as well.

Do not forget uni is a place to learn n experience,not to get a degree solely.

It's another year already. Time flies dude.
I know it's time to make a difference.
My life has already different than it supposed to be?? yes it is.
It is since I choose to come to singapore,especially by choosing NTU.

If you r interested whether I how i feel when i found out that i 'should have chosen' NUS.
I'd tell you I've never regret at all. NTU has everything NUS don't have. Perhaps it's because I have found something different here. Well,I have been dreaming of coming to NTU since I know this epic place.
NTU is so famous for it's engineering course although it's a relatively new university(comparing to NUS or similar ranked university). It's reputation is just so-so here thought,this is actually what I looking for!

I get to join more kinds of people here.
1. totally study-orientated while having decent grades
2. totally study-orientated and has exceptional academic achievements
3. average academically but excel in ECA and personalities.
4. totally genius and lazy (they usually lie between average and above average academically)
5. and people like me,totally lost but still keeping track both academically,personally,and socially)
I met a very interest person here. A Vietnamese 'kid',just like me,a Malaysian 'kid'.
I found out that he's much similar to me.
A difficult family, being here to become more financially independent in the future. However,i am much more fortunate than him. I have so much more support back in Malaysia and even here in Singapore.
He was pretty much the second type of people I've mentioned.
But,he is a totally different person now,cause he has realized something very realistic.
Degree holders are everywhere,we compete with our own friends here,to get a 'decent' pay every month. If you think it's enough,by earning $3000/month,while owing $40k,you will live a comfortable life.
But I think this is not all i want. I come here to learn. Other than knowledge and also some priceless experience. I also know I'll succeed with good soft skills on hand. I am here for something bigger. Something that not just comfort my parents that has supported my siblings and me for more than 20years. It might be too much if i say i want to give a luxurious life to them.
They have been working so hard in their life,keep telling themselves they will get what they deserve in the end,a happy retirement life. I think most parents do. But this is definitely less than what they deserve.
