on a topic completely unrelated to my post title.. i am not in a very good state right now. i'm coming to the end of my 3rd year of bachelor and now i need to decide my next step in life (erm.. so to speak). this did not just occur to me days ago.. in fact, it's been on my mind since the start of this year. i've spoken to many people.. and even done the 'listing the pros/cons of each option' thingy but i still can't decide. honours or master of physiotherapy? well, for a brief period, i was quite settled with pursuing physiotherapy. i mean, c'mon.. in demand and pays well.. good prospects for the future mah. then today we had a talk in school for third year students like myself. and then i started opening up my options again.. i guess because physio wasn't what i intended to do when i took up this degree. i wanted to be involved in strength & conditioning and sport-performance related work. sadly, reality is that singapore doesn't have the well-developed market for sports scientists. at least not yet. after today's talk, i've re-opened the possibility of doing honours. why? because a part of me doesn't want to step into physio just yet. think about it.. if i did my masters in physio.. that's pretty much what i'll be doing for the next two decades or so, and doing honours will still enable me to eventually become a S&C coach/sports trainer.. maybe even a lecturer?
i need to sleep on all of that.. and pray about it as well. this was like back then after O's.. but tougher decisions. last time, when i didn't know what i wanted to do.. just go JC lor. now not so fun anymore.. sigh, the stresses of life. speaking of JC.. here's a short clip of a dance from a bollywood play put up by the arts society. it was a tremendous hit and apparently the junior batches adapted the moves and created the 'fun dance' for subsequent orientations. JC may not have been the smartest choice i made.. but it was definitely worth it.
no PJ = no hockey = no sports science degree = no present me. well, it's time to disco baby. enjoy (:
