Two Years of Change

Hello, All my Friend. Two years apart, I am here again. I am here to talk about the ‘Life Goal”.

My University Life

After I study Diploma in Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), I choose to continue my study in Singapore.  Things that I can’t imagine is when after I finish secondary school from my hometown (Johor Bahru) I think like “whether I should go out to work or continue study?”.  This question had been bothering me a long time. After a while, my parents support me to continue to study. At that time I had been decided if I want to continue study I should not study in my hometown, because of the university in my hometown are not very good and if it is good I can’t feel like I am independent. Because I think a girl who age 18 should be independent.

Therefore, I decided to study at Kuala Lumpur for my diploma course and it takes 2 years. And I choose to study (Marketing) because in future I want to working outside of the office. During the diploma course that I study, I feel like luckily I study at Kuala Lumpur because all my friends in hometown are suffering some of the problems about their studies. However, when the diploma life almost over, I start to consider a question which is  “whether I should continue my degree course? where? continue at that College? or Somewhere else?”. Honestly, when I study diploma, my result is not that good. I always get C (50-60) and sometimes fails (less than 50). And that is the reason I feel very depressed. “Why I always fail and why I can’t just pass it ?!” but the impossible things happen, at the last exam I took 10 paper (because I fail many subjects before) and when the result out, I was surprised that I can make it! And after the result released, I was more worried about my study? Should I continue study at that university? (Tunku Abdul Rahman University College) or I should go somewhere else? or I should work?!

After that, I back to my hometown rest for 3 months. At that 3 months, I start searching the university that can accept my qualification and also be finding the job that accepts me. In the between, I attended the diploma graduation ceremony because I scared I won’t attend any graduation anymore. […] During the months that I rest in my hometown, I start considering my future and I felt that the university that I used to study diploma is not that good (maybe is my personal purpose) because I always get the fails for every term and it let me lose the confidence to continue my study. And the university always fails people whatever how good you write in the exam. Therefore, I decided to study in Singapore because the education level at Singapore is very high and there is a place for me to learn and improve my  English.

I start searching the university in Singapore. And finally, one university accept me and I was very happy that my qualification was accepted. (I still choosing Marketing as my major course) The course started in 2016 August. When the first term starts, I feel like everything is ok for me and I understand the English and I feel like actually everything not that bad! When doing the assignment, the problems come, I feel like OMG my English is damn weak, all my friend say my English is very bad can’t communicate with me. At that time, I use Chinese to communicate with my friend. At first, I use Chinese (until now I use English to communicate with them) and I feel like after I study in Singapore I know whats actually going on. First, the way of doing the assignment (we must work together with the group mate – together to solve the problem, follow the criteria to do the assignment and discuss together) but at diploma the style of group work is not that matter, everyone doing their part not discuss with each other and when is done just submit directly. In that way, I cant feel the way of learning the theory or the concept.

Second, I know how to communicate within the group not just using Chinese (Mother Tongue), we must communicate the international language which is English. Only in that way I just realised that “OMG, when I go out to work I have to communicate with the clients or my customers in that way”! I can’t imagine that how if I continue study degree in the diploma university, did I learn the way of communication, learn how to work in the group … Therefore, the environment of the university is important for me. And Now, my degree life almost over (left one term) and I have to face the reality which is going out to work. Third, the way of writing the report…

Let’s talk about how I planned my life goal.

MY LIFE GOAL

Everybody has a life goal for their own, I’m no exception. Actually, when I start my degree I already plan my life goal. First, after I study degree I hope I can successfully graduate, and I want to work as Intern in event company. All of my friends tell me that internship is not that good (the salary is low, the work very boring..) but actually I feel that the good things to gain the work experience are starting from the internship. I know internship is not that good but internship has many Benefits. I just don’t understand why everyone keeps stopping me to start as an intern. In my life goal list – I hope to work in Singapore big company (actually now I already start finding the job). After getting the intern job I hope I can work at the big company such as (Google, Facebook, P&G) and so on. I know I work in the big company is ridiculous but I will try my best to do the best to work in that company. In my goal list, I hope I can go to the UK to study English to enhance my grammar, the way of writing… because I feel that my English actually is not that good and I should improve it for future purpose. After study English, I wish I can start to work in the big company.

Today, I am here to sharing my experience is because I think maybe some of you will feel the same as me (feel very upset about your study or feel that your result is that bad or ..) don’t upset, you can do it just like me. You can set your goal and try to accomplish it, trust yourself, you can do it. That’s for Today, Thanks for reading my article.
