When I said I’m
going to the University of Toronto to further my studies, many think that it’s
ganna be an enjoyable experience~ it does sound fancy to get admitted into a
top notch university~ many may think
that my parents could really afford the
tuition fee and living expenses over there, and that I’m just going there to
enjoy my studies~ well, that was what I thought
at the beginning, but when I really counted, the total annual cost for me to be
there is approximately rm200k ~ (vy much due to the currency rate) in other words, my mum would have to spend rm
15k on me every month for 4 years! That’s insane~ when I saw that figure
appearing on the calculator screen, only do I realise that I’m burning my mum’s
money~ I wanted to reject the offer at that moment, but something kept me from
doing so. A second voice is telling me to go ahead~ but I knew I couldn’t be so
selfish~ so heartless, how’s my mum supposed to pay that large amount of money?
~ a thought flashed through my eyes…
It’s the only
chance that can force me to unleash my fullest potential~ why? Because upon
arrival, I’m all on my own~ mum gives me the minimum to survive~ and I’ll be
force to take up a part time job to sustain my living fee~ other than that, I’ll
also have to really work hard to expend my business with no excuses~ furthermore,
I’ll have to study smart and hard to gain the scholarship offered by the
university for the 2nd year. May not be able to come back to Malaysia
even in cny or summer holiday because the flight from Canada to Malaysia is
also vy costly(rm5k single journey)~ gotta work during the summer holiday to
earn some bucks for my coming semester~ in most TV shows, most people work as waitress
in their uni life~ that’s most probably where I’m ganna end up to be during the
summer~ haha~ sounds dramatic? Well, I know
it’s ganna be a tough experience~ in Malaysia, where money isn’t my concern, I’ve
nvr wanna work in a restaurant (that’s like that last place I would wanna work
at), there’s also no urge to force me into putting my real effort to expend my
business, and also, I’ll nvr work really hard to get a scholarship (there isn’t
any needs). I’m sure after reading through my careless and lazy behaviour,
almost everyone would agree to send me to Toronto without hesitation~ haha~
Knowing that this will put me in the roughest
condition~ it might be really tough~ but deep in my heart, I know that when I walk
through the storm, a rainbow will be there for me~ and I know, all my lovely
mentors will always be at my side, supporting me mentally through the storm. In
the business, most of my promises have yet to come true~ that’s why I know I’ve
ought to be abit hush on myself, to train and sharpen my mind, and most
importantly, to hold on to my words of going Diamond!
