New Year Resolution 2013

....I can fly.




Often times we get this idea or dream, but we never go ahead to complete it. Life gets in the way. I refuse to merely be taken over by my fears, or monetary limitations, or pressure by other people.

Post As - 1 month and 7 days have just gone by.. Like whoosh. Even without the pressure of A levels, I still feel like something is missing and that I'm not living life to the fullest. I refuse to get tied down by a job now... Maybe its because I've been.... spending quite a lot of time on the computer.

I've been spending quite a lot of time thinking about what to apply for university: I'm really lost. While I'm really interested in what goes on in the mind, cue: Psychology. I'm afraid. i don't know what career path is the correct one for me. Clinical psychologist, or organizational psychologist? Scholarship, or no scholarship? The questions are endless. Overseas, or no overseas? It seems that psychologists don't really have good career prospects in Singapore. (Clinical psychologist, that is...) Unless I take psychology but end up doing something else. Say, policy planning. I wish for some direction... To pursue what i want, i kinda need to know what i want. The trouble is I don't really know.

I've been spending an awful lot of time today thinking about internet businesses. Is that like, some sort of signal, that..  maybe I should consider business as a possible course?

I suppose the best case scenerio, would be to get a good scholarship and go to UK to study psychology. Come back at 21-22 years old. Work at that company for say, 6 years. Do a masters or PHD in psych, or MBA.

OR: NUS Business School, double degree maybe.

OR: NUS FASS, double degree Psych and something else.

When I'm old: Private practice as a clinical psychologist, or own my own business.
