Exchange Program

Sigh.. One of my friend is going to Japan as an exchange student. I felt happy for him but at the same time i was a bit jealous.

To be very honest, I have been dreaming to study overseas for like.. my whole life. I really would like to go overseas someday and pursue what i want to study. I want to experience what other people on the other side of this country experiences.

Unfortunately, with the economical background of my family, the only way i can achieve that goal is to get a scholarship. It's not like I don't want to get it, just sometimes i felt doubt in myself.

I believe very much in my gift of communicating with the others, but my family members seems to take it as some kind of useless crap.

I have a true and deep passion in careers that require this gift and skill I have, but on the other hand, my family has a different opinion.

I cannot say that they are wrong entirely, but they just kind of don't really understand me. I was hoping to choose a subject that i have great interest in, and have full loads of passion and confidence to pursue it. But it seems like interest can't be a career according to my family.

Well. hopefully in the very soon future of my college life, i will be pursuing the course of my dreams, the job of my passion, the career of my interest, and the life of my wish.

PTG: May I have the strength to follow my dreams, the confidence to live my own life, the braveness to fight for my own future, the passion to defend my interest. May I can do what i love in the way I love. May I always be strong.
