Somehow

Somehow, I am actually glad tat i didn't get JPA.
The course I applied for was german engineering, as I merely wanted something that was easy to get and study.

Alright, let's say if I got straight 1As and got any course I want.
I would never put medicine in my application as I thought I wanted a life like my brother's.

My siblings really influenced me a lot. My parents even more. Part of the reason I didn't want medicine when I was in secondary school was because my parents tried to instill the passion for medicine in me, somehow. They sort of encourage medicine even before my pre-u. I still remember my dad mentioning something about sending me for SAM right after SPM and study medicine in IMU. But it was just a random conversation.

I realised what kind of life I want after going through many phases of life. At first I thought that I am the kind who enjoys the spotlight and loves fame, glams, and want to be rich. When I was in form2 I wanted to be a businesswoman. haha. After that I thought of doing engineering, get a degree in MBA and own a very big company. I sort of plan out my life beforehand. Those were thoughts that motivated me a lot. Being successful and influential.

Back then I had friends who were really inspired that he/she wanted to be a doctor. The more inspired they got, the more I felt : i do not want to follow them. I want to be different. Why must everyone's ambition be doctor or pharmacy? I will be different!

But now, here I am. Having the same dream as more than 70% of all my friends. Yup. I had been through a lot. Things changed. And I am glad that I was given the chance to rise up after falling down many many times. But come to think of it, if I can get whatever I want that easily, I wouldn't be able to appreciate all the things I am studying now. And all the people I met would have been so different. I am glad that the friends I have around me who are not like the typical medical students from other medical universities. They study, they play, they laugh, they love, and most importantly, they share. ^____^ They just make my stressful life less stressful. :)
