~ All these -logy are putting on impact on me.... ~
8:33:00 pm
All these sociology and psychology lessons are beginning to have an impact on me... This is the semester where we're all learning the most psychology and sociology topics... One reason is to prepare us for the work life and also the society when we graduate in 5 months' time...
Today, my class had a tutorial on Sociology of Work and Organisation, taught by Karen Tan... During this tutorial, we were given a scenario in which we have to choose the perfect job out of a list of 18... It was a tough one to choose so we negotiated with Karen to allow us to choose 3, although there were a few who chose less or more... Anyway, the list that I chose was to be an adventurer (climbing mountains and stuff), a top-airline air-stewardess (to be able to see the world) and to do nothing (relax, enjoy and have no financial worries)... We were then given another scenario where we had to choose another job out of a list of 16... And this time round, all the jobs are what people would call '
lousy' or '
terrible'... So out of all the jobs, I chose to be a parking cop... *Fun eh... Get to '
saman' people... HAHAHA!!!*... And I was the only one to choose it!! There were quite a few who chose to be a debt collector... *Haha*...
Anyway, the whole point of this tutorial is to make us aware that there is no such thing of a perfect job... You make like that particular profession but when it comes to real work, there's no such thing as "Everything will be smooth and great"... Other factors plays a role too such as your colleagues, the society and all... So, if you think that you've got the perfect job, congrats... But trust me, don't expect it to happen how you want it to be all the time... I wish you all the best...
But it's through this tutorial, it makes me even more aware that I'm not ready to graduate... I'm not ready to face the world, the society, to work... I still want to be a student, be with all my friends, enjoy everything... *Sigh*... But what can I do right? I have to adapt to changes... Changes happen all the time... It's just how you can handle it... *Arrgghh!! I'm gonna suffer from a difficult
role exit...*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
How often does a person put on a mask to conceal his/her true emotions and feelings? To me, it's all the time... Life is like a stage and we are all its actors... I just find this so true especially when I talked to a friend just now... She seems all fine and cheerful outside but seriously, only God knows how terrible she feels... But she concealed it so well that no one was able to suspect anything... *Sigh*...
Just a little message to this friend:
Dearest, don't be too sad... Remember that you still have your family, friends and those who loves you, to help you through this... Don't bottle up your feelings cuz it will only hurt you more... If there's a need for you to let it all out, then do it... Take care, my friend... Remember... If you need anything, I'm always here for you... *Hugz*
