After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Today, I woke up in bed, seeing mom standing beside with Republic Polytechnic's package documents in her hands. The documents were scattered on the floor by me after I had finished doing the online poly registration via the instructions given in the package when I went to sleep. I thought that she was kind enough to help pick up and put them on my desk but I was WRONG. SHE WAS READING IT. When she realised I had woke up she went ahead and said to me in mandarin that her friends told her when I graduate from the course in Republic Poly I can only become a cook in hawker centres and bugged me why I didn't pick a course that is office-related where I will have good future and feeling relax at work with the air-con. First, why is my course(sports-related) has to do with becoming a cook in hawker centres in future? There's no link in it. Secondly, does office-related jobs brings in more money and are the tasks given easier than the sports-related ones? Nope. I would rather being in the sports industry than in an office.

Why? Because imagine sitting in front of the company's computer for 8-9hours everyday typing out documents or work tasks given to you. You will feel that your energy being absorbed as the computer gives off a kind of energy that makes your body feels weak that is bad to our body in the long run. And sitting inside an office is BORING as there are rarely any normal conversations among the staffs there where all of them are rushing to finish off their load to avoid staying back to OT.

Well, back to mum. I argued back that she's contradicting herself as there isn't any link in becoming a cook in the hawker centre in future and told her her friends are talking lies and she is stupid and naive to believe them. This time round, she mentioned that no one would want to choose and study my course since its a lousy course according to her. She's contradicting herself again. She walked away when she heard me saying in mandarin "If no one would want to choose my course, why is there 250 students in this course this year?" Ahh... A sign of victory. I stood up and closed the doors before heading back to continue with my sleep.
