Call me crazy but its final.

As you all know, I've been persistently blogging about being in a quandary as to whether I should take up Medicine or not after graduating from a pre-med course. So yeah, Should I pursue Medicine or not? Well i did take up a pre-med course and heck, it took me 5 years to finish it. 6 years ago i was taking up Business Management and i decided to shift to Applied Biology because i 'thought' i wanted to take up Medicine. As far as I could remember, I've always wanted to be a Doctor. That was what i kept answering when ever i was asked what do you want to be when you grow up. I even kept writing down i wanted to be a doctor on yearbooks. So basically, I already had my mind set that I DO want to be a doctor someday.

So there. I'm finally done with biology and at long last i'm over this perplexity of choosing a life time career.

I've decided to study again and take up MULTIMEDIA ARTS.

??????

confusing enough?

I started doubting the potential career i'd build in the medical world 2 years ago. Taking up applied biology was already a mistake. I thought i was enjoying science but come to think of it, I wasn't really into scientific names, those weird jargons, and complicated ways of how life works and you have to memorize every single thing.

I was already having a hard time with science because i realized i wasn't really enjoying it. I wanted to be a doctor because of the mere thought of doctors being wealthy. LOLz. So I thought taking up medicine would definitely be a wrong move. I would never be able to get through the gruesome lifestyle of a medicine student. There are numerous things i should sacrifice just to take it up and i'm not willing to do that.

I should've taken up multimedia arts years ago (it takes me 5 years to realize that. *shrugs*). Am i happy with it? absolutely. Will i be able to finish it? yes, its only a 3 year course and im pretty confident i'd be able to excel this time. Will i have good job right after? I surely will. My mom assured me that their's a job in Jeddah waiting for me.

My parents and i already talked about this and I'm really glad their very supportive. They know how hard it is to get through something you're not happy with. Kudos to my dad because he never thought taking up biology was really a waste. It was an achievement for him. Kudos also goes to my mom for keeping it real, knowing me as her son, she told me quite frankly that she really didn't think I'd be able to get through Medicine.

Hey. don't curse me for doing this. I know its stupid, but we all make mistakes you know. At least im not as stupid as that guy who topped the board exams just to end up being a nurse in America. Things change and i don't blame him!
