There are so many things weighing on my heart but I guess the most would be the disappointment that I am presented with by my parents.

Yesterday news was given that there is going to be an exchange programme to the University of Western Australia this coming holidays for three weeks. Even though it would have nothing related to my course of study in TP - it will be Australian Studies, it will still be a great experience for me. For starters, I get to experience university life the aussie way and it would help me to see if I would enjoy studying overseas, once I saved enough money to persue my studies. I guess it would be a good break for me too. To study in a different environment and at the same time, use this opportunity to clear my head over certain issues.

I guess these reasons aren't good enough for my parents to really want to send me there for 3 weeks in march. It always have to be about the money. It's not that I do not know where my parents are coming from - with all the medical bills and paying off the loans for the car but this opportunity is too good for me to let it go. In secondary school, I had no qualms about giving up the many opportunities that came my way to go overseas for field trips like Australia (again) and England (lit) since I was still young.

Oh wells. This is all part of life rite?
