My Future

There are those who seek to climb the corporate ladder
There are those who seek to gain more wealth
There are those who seek fame and recognition

I struggled and thought of what i want to do with my life
I imagined to myself, many different jobs i could be in.........
To be realistic without money, I would not be able to survived
even with passion blah blah blah.......

I wanted something that i can do for the rest of my life.......
something worth working for.........
I hate the business sector...banking blah blah blah......
I appreciate how it works but i was clear i didnt want something in that line which cuts the jobs available to me into half..........In my opinion nothing can escape the claws of the word business/economics.....

At least that was how the working world is being programmed.......
so i came to a conclusion i should be involved in something that has of minimal relationship in climbing that ladder....

I considered the line of teaching which i completely didnt wan to consider when i first entered uni...
why? I hate standing in front of a group of ppl.....i must say...i really hate it!
I just dunnoe why. But after my internship at a sec sch... i must say it wasnt as bad as i had thought but i still didnt like the idea of becoming a MOE teacher...

I just dun like the system for both the students & teachers....
I believe i am a victim of the system..
i must clarify that singapore students are already very lucky that we have the oppournity to study....but there is just an over emphasis on grades! I hate that!

I remember the curiosity i had when i was much younger....you noe the 十万个为什么 ??
That is true learning....so i'm sick of studying!! so totally because i knew my aim of getting good grades is a 2nd class motivation for me to study....

Learning is much more enjoyable than studying....Sian

So i decided i wanna teach kids to learn...
I like babies and young children...
they are toughest/most energetic humans to handle but i think there is where the passion will last...

Yes Moe teachers are better paid, they have better bonuses, etc...
Kindergarten teachers dun...no paid leave blah blah blah....only sch holidays i think...
but at least k1 k2 no need to score straight As to go to a primary sch right... maybe for those super prestige sch....

At least i get to do art n music not only ems.... something more than just studying...
At least i dun need to mark thousand of hw like in sec/pri sch (at least that is wad i think)
I prefer spending my time doing all the art work to decorate a classroom than spending my time keying in grades /attendance/blah blah into the computer

Lastly, for children under 7 i think i have better confidence to stand in front of them and say "i have life experiences that i can offer to you " And the chances that they will believe is much higher... young children are very dependent on adults when you have gain their trust....


I weighed the pros & cons and made my decision and hopefully it will be something i will do for the rest of my life....hopefully it wont be much harder than i imagine...

P.s I rather trade in a few buck per month and remain in my own childish world...it will bring me less sorrow
