Path to Success or Failure?

At the age of 12, I was told by my classroom teacher that the final exam, UPSR held end of the year is just a ticket to high school. After reflecting back, it seems that this will be my final year of being an undergraduate student. Time passed really fast. I could even remember enrolling in the university, alone by myself without any help or guidance.





How did I even ended up being here I wonder? My high school journey ends with my worst result although there were no failures. Regret was the only word left imprint on my feeling at that time. Regret not choosing the right stream enrolled in. Nevertheless, it was all over. The journey continues with unaccountable numbers of programs available in the universities. I then asked myself, 'What am I good at?' I looked at my personal skills and found nothing.


I looked up at my father, a businessman and I regarded him as a successful man although the days he were home were limited. Without much thinking, I too took the same path enrolled in Taylors Business Foundation Program. Surprisingly, the English placement test took me to the second class, March 1.2. Never expected I did well or maybe its just that others did not put effort in completing it thinking it was just a waste of time.


After completing the Program with a bunch of awesome people, I began to wonder what should I enroll in UniSA where I originally plan to do a twinning program of 2+1. The choice was tough between Marketing, Finance and Accounting. I do not want to repeat the same mistake I once did when I was 15. With Accounting out due to various reason, I took the a choice where there were the least people enrolled in, Finance.

The last few days were cold enough till it dropped to 2 degrees











Finally 20,000 score!!














Anyway, Good Luck for those sitting for their finals!!
