Yesterday I went over to my uncle's place and had a chat with him over what I want to do for my degree. I know I'll be doing the Bachelor of Commerce but I wasn't sure what I'll be majoring in. It's like common knowledge among my family that Maths is my strongest subject (even though my A-Levels C4 Maths paper was such a bitch, I was 2 marks away from an A) so my uncle was like "you should do Econometrics and Accounting" because Econometrics is basically Econs & Maths and people with this qualifications would be in demand in 2, 3 years time....which is just around the time I graduate! Hahahahaha! But there's a catch: The Econometrics major is only offered in the Monash campus in Sunway and nowhere else. Sad. Which means that I have to scrape my hope of going to the Monash campus in Melbourne. Sigh. I'm sad, but what can I do? Dah lah my parents are paying for everything....I don't want to burden them more by going overseas on their expense. So I think I'll study hard, get good results, try to do internship with my uncle when I have my summer break or whatever and then try to go overseas on my own after I graduate.
So here's my New Year's Resolution: To study hard and to do well in my degree, so that I could help my parents and lighten their burden and to be able to go study/work in Australia, NOT at my parents' expense.
