Reflection
I am seriously bored that explains why i am blogging. Yesterday, while on the journey to school, it suddenly dawn upon me that Education is not to be taken granted of. Most of us have the privilege & are fortunate to be able to 'afford' to study, although some have to work simultaneously to support themselves.
Sometimes, as i saw the foreign workers in our country, i wonder how long they have to stay before they earn enough to return home. All of them are like us, but they are deprived of the luxury of getting better education & had to go to a foreign place to earn a living. Seeing this, does it mean that education is always available to someone who yearns to learn? They can invest in education or work their way through, but given their circumstances, they have not much of choices but to work.
Are the students enjoying their learning process nowadays? Or are they just trying to be in the norm of getting the maximum level of education in order to earn a higher paycheck? Are they trying to defer the time to enter the working society?
I once thought through on what does attaining a degree means? Intellectual competency? Does it mean that by attaining a degree in Econs&Finance, i would be able to connect with the financial news that are reported worldwide? I've tried reading some, but till now, i cant say that i can comprehend everything, maybe a fraction of them. I hope by the day i graduate with the degree, i am able to relate & at least be able to discuss about the worldwide economy.
After blogging, its still so early, 1515 , & i am crazy to even wake up at 0430 today to have breakfast and go back to sleep at 0700. Randomness in my life.haha
