It used to be my ambition.

     It's my first time to fly! My shout out since finally I'm able to travel by air bus on yesterday when I travelled to Langkawi Island for a short working trip. I was so afraid and yet super excited when the flight started to accelerate on the track before it was able to fly up high into the sky. When we were small and young in primary school time, there is always a column in the report card that required us to put down our ambition. I do remember that pilot was one of my choice. It was still fresh in my memory that my list of ambitions had included doctor, lawyer, hair stylist, fashion designer, teacher, accountant, and many more which all are unrelated to what I'm doing right now.

    Writing all those ambitions without thinking what field were all that in, how good is our result need to be, probably only happened during that age. The time when all of us have no commitment and problem to think in life. To be a pilot, doctor or lawyer, the pre-requisite is to score an excellent result in studies. Only people who excel in studies are able to pursue their education in such lines. However, I am not a very bright student in school, I never get number one in class, I never get straight A's, I'm never a teacher's pet, so I'm actually quite brave and daring to have such courage to write down those ambitions in my list. Of course, this only happened when we were young and innocent.

     Now in life, what matters most isn't what job you are doing, what position or designation that you carried in your company, but the question is are you able to make a living on your own, be responsible on your own and capable to take care of your parents and family.  If my result is not good, what alternatives do I have? Well, there are actually plenty of choices in this world, as long as you are willing to put in efforts you will find your way to the successful route. As long as I do not cheat and earn the money with honesty, I am considered as a successful person. A doctor is a job, a lawyer is a job, everything is a job. Career, job and roles all meant the same, because it brings you reward when you work hard. So just be hardworking, diligent, responsible and honest.

     Currently I'm studying Degree in Corporate Communication, I will be working in a corporate world which is very challenging after I graduate. This degree allows me to be Public Affair Officer, Public Relations Practitioner and etc. Although the designations title may sounds not as grand as doctor, pilot and lawyer, but it can be the rice bowl that can protect and support my family and I. Even though I did not managed to be what I used to want, but I am in the correct, right and bright path still, as long as I work hard (LOL, should work smart!) and be determine, I believed that I will be able to lead a prosperous life.
