Are our future that serious?
I want to be a lawyer someday, or maybe an engineer, or an army. I don't know.
Two years from now, I'll be facing new school, new set of teachers, comrades, subjects and all. I can't even imagine myself at that state. My thoughts had been muddling through it all over since I was a kid and at this very moment, it feels like it's just some times away. To be honest with you I'm quite too tense about the thought of college and it gives me the shrill every time I think about it. Not that I'm excited or anything it's just too, I don't know mainstream?
So a couple of days before I started writing this to you, we had this National Career Assessment Examination or NCAE that is said to deal with high school student's college-picking problems. The NCAE had these kinds of questions that are really for some job we might want to pick. Some were about plumbing and fixing some broken lights and electrical circuits, others were for architecture, engineering, security and whatnot. I even caught myself laughing on some questions that I think is too odd to be asked because of all my existence, it never entered my mind. Well, I guess I'm still too naive at those jobs the world has to offer.
Anyway I have a deal with myself. I told her that, if she'll pass some scholarship exams (for example she would pass the UPCAT) she'll engage herself in undergraduate courses to become a lawyer like Criminal Law, Political Science or Economics but if not, she'll join the Philippine Army and go to Philippine Military Academy. Sounds crazy for most girls but for me, that is the least opinion to thing about.
So whatever result my NCAE might be I'd still go on with my plans, but I will absolutely reconsider what course it would recommend to me. I didn't waste my time and energy answering those funny questions if I'm not serious about it. Like they always say, who knows right?
