Reminiscing My School Days

When I was still a child, I was quite allergic to schooling. It was so hard to be always falling in line singing even I am not in the mood. The lesson could be too fast or too slow so, I just keep on looking to the window eager to go home and play. Some of my teachers were terrors and not approachable. I like the subject of mathematics we have lots of subject but math is my most favorite. I love to compute numbers even in my younger age.

When it comes to grades my mother is very strict, and we need to get a higher grades. Grades are immense incentive to strive hard for promotion to the next grade and the brighter ones being grouped in section-1. That’s why when end of school year I never disappoint my parents, I gave them the good grades that they are aiming for me. Medals and certificates in diverse subject were given for excellence as with scholarship in college. In my chosen University, I did not take the entrance test that were given by the school, just simply because I was exempted to take the entrance exam being one of the top ten in high school of 30 thousand graduates. My parents are very proud to their beautiful daughter (lol).

We were not guided to associate funds with capacity, interest, and demand in the market. My parents and friends influenced course selection. I had a hunch that girls should take some of the vocational subjects, as the boys should take home economics too so that if wife or husband is sick, the one can cook and do the household chores.

College was my own decision in selecting what course I like to take up. They gave me freedom to choose what is really my line and devotion. I was pushed by some of my friends to take up medical course such as Pre-Dental or going to a successful dentist in the future. But when I come along to the lobby of the Dentistry department, where the clinic of the internship was there, and I saw the blood that comes from the mouth of the patient, I automatically back out and change my mind to enroll other course. So I pursue my line in mathematics, I enroll Bachelor of Science in Computer Science. For many trials and sacrifices that I encounter in my college days I graduated and now a Bachelors’ Degree holder. I did work before as a computer programmer but I was not contented with my income so I decided to work in a foreign land and choose the job that pays higher even though it does not fit for my qualification. All I do this just for the sake of my parents and help them in return from their sacrifices for me to finish my chosen career. Now I am happily married and a full time happy mom with my two intelligent kids with a loving and devoted husband.
