Spoilt 4 Choice
It is times like these which makes me feel uncertain. Life has its own ways of puttin u on a test n twisting ur fate to sumting u either wish or din wish for. I believe e phrase "spoilt for choice" would best describe how our parents or grandparents feel abt kids in our current society. U would hav probably heard it often enough abt how they compared abt their past childhood with e present In actual fact, tis difference is caused by globalisation n e many interesting discoveries made thru e yrs. At present, adults also do enjoy a wide variety of choices when it comes to fashion, dining, careers, leisure activities n etc etc.

Being a young adult like me, we r also spoilt for choice in e area of our academic life. I believe many would agree tat they often find themselves stuck with makin decision on which course or CCA to take. E good thing abt Singapore's Educational System is u wont need to make many decisions along e way. There isnt much choices for u to choose from in e first place. U r given either this or tat. Being well-known for our kiasu-ness, Singaporeans hav no qualms abt choosing wat seems to b e 'best' at tat point in time. E trouble onli kicks in when you either graduate frm ur 'A' Levels or 'O' Levels heading to Poly. Then, u r given a whole list of courses to choose from. I do remember how pple ard started havin their own idea abt which course is e 'best'. Frens ard me felt lost for e fear of enterin e wrong course. Eventually, decisions were made n everyone prayed for e 'best' to befall on them once again.

Would it b a better idea to b at a split road or cross junction? I would choose e first. Not being blessed with many options in life can b a blessing in disguise too. In my current skool, I am pretty spoilt for choice in terms of my CCA. Lookin thru e long list of CCAs in my skool, I hav picked a few frm e list. Interviews were held to select e suitable candidates for e respective CCAs. I went fore to try my luck. Despite havin gone thru many interviews in my job hunt, I was still nervous @ e interview when I hav a panel of 6 interviewers. Crappy ans came out frm my mouth which might leads to a higher chance of not being selected. I do pray for e best but a sense of insecurity jus clings onto me. I am keepin my fingers cross on this.

Believe me, it is supposed to b a blog entry. I hav no idea why it turn out to b like essay. *opps*
