ZehaParticipantHi anita,
“There is more in that website that may help you figure out how practical it would be for you to pursue this career. With practical knowledge, you will have a better chance to convince your mother/ family that this career is right for you.” – I really like this.
Recently, I told my mother and my other siblings about my confusion. Their advice and the conversation enlighten me. In addition, everyone replies in this forum help me and lessen my burden in deciding a decision. Now, I can gladly and confidently will say that I will continue and finish my degree. I find out the root cause of my problem and the confusion. Thank you so much for everyone.
ZehaParticipantHi Helcat,
Thank you for your concerns. Sure will keep it mind when I’m preparing myself for the job. Moreover, I’m really agree with you about planning a direction. Thank you so much.
ZehaParticipantHi Helcat,
Thank you so much for kind reply and advice. I will answer those question you ask.
It seems like you know what you don’t want to do. Do you have any ideas for what you do want to do? = I want to be a Stewardess. I’m not the smart person and not keen about studies since high school.
Would it be possible for your credits to be transferred to another degree? In this case your efforts to study so far would still count towards a degree, but you could potentially change subject. It might be worth discussing options with an academic advisor at school. = The problem is not the course or University because both course and place is highly demanded one in my country. The problem is me. Me and myself don’t want this path.
The reason I did not speak about this early before entering University is because I myself didn’t realize that there got another path and choices for me to live my own life. I though only this path can make me live my life. But today I cannot carry on with this decision.
ZehaParticipantHi Roberta,
First of all, thank you so much for reply and advice. Thank you for the question and I will gladly answer it.
Please can I ask what made you choose that particular course?= Before entering university, I take accounting course(Business, Economics, Accounts, Mathematics). Thus, I only can choose art stream course in University. But at the moment, I don’t find anything that perk my interest. So my sister, put this Economics course with other choices for me since there got Economic subject in the Accounting course that I took before University.
What kind of job are you/ your family expecting you to get at the end of it? = My dream is to be stewardess. I ask them to let me be but they said they only will allow me once I finish this Degree. Because they want me to have stable background. But even after I finish the Degree, I will not find any related job with the Degree.
Is it the kind of job/career that really sings to your heart? = I hope above given answers, will satisfy this question.
Would you be able to defer for a year to give you some kind of head/heart space if there was not the option to change to another course that is more to your liking? = As I said before, I don’t have the mindset to study anymore. I am afraid that If i continue this I might be exhaust myself until I cannot cope with it.
” How do I want to live my life?” = I want to have a peaceful and happy life. I just want to live my life as I want without feeling anxiety, guilt and regret.
Thanks for telling me about your son and it’s much helped me to know that there are someone who can live peacefully and happy without have a degree. But my biggest concern is, I already come halfway and talk about this with my sister.
She said and ask many things, that make me doubt and question my decision. Although it’s seems very practical, still at last come to this despite knowing the reality.
What should I do?
ZehaParticipantHi anita
Thank you for your kind advice. But I cannot grasp what are you trying to convey here. Are you suggesting me to follow my heart or my family? Do I need to think practical or follow my instinct/gut here?
