After 10 years.......

The truth is that I still do not see myself ten years from now. I am still wondering what would be my life after those years. I am still confused of what course to take up in college. Ever since I was in elementary, I really wanted to be a successful teacher because I really wanted to teach little children. As I entered high school, that want suddenly vanished. After wanting of being a teacher, I wanted to be an engineer because that is the dream of my mom and also because of the high salary. But I don’t think that I could stand the mechanical plates. How about being an architect? Yes, I would also want to be an architect but we cannot afford the tuition because architecture is quite expensive. I just came from a middle class family and me and my siblings are into school. My sister took up BA Psychology in the University of the Philippines Cebu. She told me that psychology is fun but somehow difficult and they have lots of research papers. I definitely hate those stuffs. My friends also told me that if I would take up psychology, I would be the first one to be insane. Nest in line, Nurse? Actually, I never considered nursing as my profession because I really don’t like to be a nurse. My best friends are all taking up nursing but that does not change my decision. Many of the students in the Philippines are taking up this course and that is because they want to earn dollars. Who doesn’t want to? I myself want to go abroad and earn dollars but not by being a nurse. They are too many and the demand for nurses abroad is starting to become low and I think everyone would have that opportunity of going out of the country.
A week ago, the results of the UPCAT or the University of the Philippines College Entrance Test and I was lucky to pass. I passed Business Management in the University of the Philippines Tacloban Campus. BM was my first choice when I took up UPCAT because my sister told me that is quite an easy course compare to all other courses in UP. My mother wants me to take up college in UP because she wants me to have a UP diploma. I would also want to have it because having one is something to be proud of. When you have that, work will be easy to find. But TOFI or the Tuition and Other Fees Increase was already approve which means it will be already expensive to study in UP. From two hundred per unit, now its already six hundred per unit. That’s about three hundred percent increase. Oh, where would I take up college? It’s becoming a headache already but one thing would be sure, that I would a successful person after ten years. I am already sleepy. So guys thanks for reading my blog and good night.
