May 26, 2010, a new path of my life has been open.I thought it would never come true but at least I managed to enroll at STI Computer College in this date.Mix of emotions of excitement and fear. Excitement because this is my dream come true to study Computer Science since I was graduated for a 2 year vocational course. This is also my dream to finish a Bachelor course through self supporting.Fear because of financial problem, a problem of many self supporting students nowadays. Fear of my health because I can only have two, three, four up to six hours of sleep in a day or no sleep at all. My work as a Computer Technician in a computer shop is 12 hours at night shift that can reduce to 8 hours since my classes for the next day is whole day from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM.If my classes for the next day start at 10:00 AM, I can have 7:00 PM to 7:00 AM work(12 hours). If I can or should I say I must pursue a 12 hours working just to sustain my financial needs. The truth if not 12 hours, I cannot finish even the first semestral break of this year....for a salary of 250/day for 12 hours. For 8 hours work it could be 166 or more per day which is not enough to save 15000 for 4 months. This is a suicidal decision that I made for my life.
Whatever life comes ahead...even a greater number of sorrows, hope I will pass it. The important is I'm happy and I'm enjoying it.
When it comes to my parent...they need me. They're just a plain housewife and a laborer in a farm.They are already nearer to sixties, already old to look for their own food. What more can I give? I AM THE OLDEST OF THREE CHILDREN..,the second son, have been married, the 3rd daughter-my only sister could be the only one who could take care of my parents....
