Pricey Diploma: Take It or Leave It

First of all, thank you kepada admin kalau confession ini disiarkan.

Sebelum tu, nama aku RIA. And of course, it’s my real name but not my full name, for sure and sorry kalau bahasa aku rojak.

So, back to the title. I got my own story. So, here goes the story. I would love to apply for Diploma in TESL but not for now cause I have some problem with money.

I want to start working, buy my own little car, kalau boleh nak kereta yang murah je and yang aku mampu untuk habis bayar before I pursue my study. I want to work for 4 to 5 years.

Biasa aku dengar dari setiap orang, diorang akan cakap “biasanya kalau da start kerja, dah tak minat nak belajar”. Why eh? Is it true?

Memang kebanyakan orang macam tu. Yeah, I get it but not all of them. Aku teringin nak dengar orang doakan je yang baik-baik untuk orang lain walau apa pun keputusan yang mereka ambil.

Let them be. Just put your trust in them especially parents. We can only plan but we don’t know what will happen after that. Hina sangat ke kalau tak sambung belajar lagi?

Mostly orang yang sebaya aku akan cakap, they want to continue their studies after they work for 4 to 5 years, they want to get a car, buy a house, get married and etc.

But biasanya, orang yang lebih tua, akan selalu cakap dengan cara yang tak menyokong mereka pun.

They was like

“Lepas da kerja, kau takkan nak sambung belajar”

“Kau gaji macam ni pun berangan nak ada kereta mewah?”

“Kau mampu ke nak beli rumah? orang kerja separuh mati pun duduk rumah biasa”

“Aku ni lagi tua, dah tau macam mana asam garam kehidupan ni. Dah pernah merasa berangan macam kau.”

What?? Setiap orang tu mempunyai pengalaman dan minat yang berbeza-beza. You can’t compare their dreams and their achievements with yours. Just pray a better life for them. Can you?

I got my own plans even if people always talk like that. But i’m sick of it. The course that I like is a lil bit pricey.

If I don’t have money, did you want to pay for it? If you want to pay for it, then I don’t have to work. It’s easy as ABC right? If you ask me, why I don’t use my parents money?

Weyh… come on. Wakeup guys. Kau sedar tak ni musim apa?

Diploma in TESL ni bukan boleh dapat dekat poli or KK tau. Kau kena cari dekat U swasta (betulkan kalau aku silap) kalau ada dekat IPTA sekali pun, memang susah nak dapat.

My plan is, I want to open up my SSPN-i account to save up for my studies, save up for gold (for my future), buy a small car which I can afford yang akan memudahkan aku untuk bergerak bila sambung belajar nanti,

And I’ll make sure kereta tu kena habis bayar sebelum aku sambung belajar.

So please, doakan yang baik-baik untuk aku dan doakan juga yang baik-baik untuk orang lain. Biarkan mereka dengan pilihan mereka selagi mana pilihan mereka tu baik.

To me, all of this is good for me (Inshaallah).

Can you guys imagine if one fine day, after I work for 4 to 5 years and then I can pursue my study in the course that I like dan ada kereta sendiri yang dah habis bayar,

Then bila habis belajar, dah ada pengalaman kerja 4 to 5 years.

Tu je kot nak bebel.
