When I grow up, I just want to be a stay-at-home mum. Have you heard of that before?
Lately I've been thinking of where I really really want to head to. I have gone through PSLE and did well for it, gone through 'O' level and did well for it too surprisingly and gone through 'A' level. Though I miserably didn't do well for my 'A' levels except for a subject or two, I managed to get into a university! Even though it's not a local uni, it's still something. (It's University of London! That's spectacular!) In about 2 years from now, I will get to know what class of degree I got and as expected from the society, I will be paving my way up the corporate ladder and earn big bucks. Not just as expected from the society, but as what I thought it would be when i applied for my course. I thought you know, I thought.
Call me crazy but I just want to stay at home when I have kids one day. But then again, that's provided if my husband is earning enough. So provided that he earns enough, I want I want I want to be a stay-at-home mum. I don't know if this is somehow related to my past experience aka childhood or not, but I want to raise good kids who are other than the normal obedient, well-behaved, not naughty characteristics parents would normally want of their children, I want my kids to be family-oriented, good time managers and be useful to the society. In other words, I just want a happy family. I want to sit down and have dinner together, listen to each other, able to talk things out with each other without throwing fireballs like how I'm used to - throwing fireballs. I want to be everything that my family is not now. And that doesn't mean I don't appreciate my family now, it's just that some things, we can't do together. Lol. Every family has their own ups and downs and I'm learning to cope with that without putting them aside.
The point is just that I want to create my own happy family. I want to create that feeling of togetherness and I want each of us in the family to know that we can highly rely on each other when we have problems and not to resort to outside sources when faced with a problem. So going back to my degree and having a job, and especially if I become an accountant with the accounting degree that I have, how much time and effort can I put in family building? Once my father told me that doesn't mean I have a degree I will get a job related to that degree and in this case, I'm telling you that I don't want to do anything with my degree! Ok correction. I will be doing something with my degree for as long as I'm single and not married. Some will argue that I will have time for family building even if I work. But that's only if I have a maid right? Guess what? I want to cook for my family. Maybe I just really really want to be a full-time mum when the time comes and of course with the right man who understands.
So anyways, the new academic term has started this week. School will officially start for me tomorrow. It's Wednesday today guys. Haha. 2-days school week. I will only be in school on Thursdays and Fridays. Despite my stay-at-home mum thoughts, let's make it a good term again yeah! Fyi, I passed all my 5 modules for the previous term. 4 of it scoring 50 and above and only 1 module a bit tercorot but still a pass. Almost teared up when I saw my results haha. Good job to me. Here's to another term in school, CHEERS!
