The story of an interviewer

I found out in Yahoo Feature that some careers are low in stress scale but are quite high pay with satisfactory growth career.

Dammed! I should have taken a degree in library science.

Talking about what degree to take, don't you think some people are quite smug when they pursue medicine. Especially when they pursue the degree in UK. (Yalah aku punya degree dalam sosial sains je) Don't get me wrong, it is so hard to be a doctor with all the demanding emergency situation. I know better because my parents are both in medical line. I even slept in the hospital before. (Not because i am sick). I know how it looks like. I know how it smells in the hospital. That's why when my family pushed me to take medicine, i declined it politely. I don't think i can keep up with the job for the rest of my life.

Last year i went for a meeting and got to know this gentleman who interviewed students for JPA scholarships. We were talking about how some students who got 10As but didn't even have any common sense. He told me that the conversation went like this:

The gentleman : Why do you want to pursue medicine?

The I-got-10As nene : Yadda yadda

The gentleman : Are you prepare to live alone outside of Malaysia?

The I-got-10As nene : Yes, bla bla bla

The gentleman : OK, so we are going to sent you to Mongolia to study medicine.

Is that ok with you? (obviously making a joke)

The I- got- 10As nene : (Cry, nangis, ku) I don't want to go to Mongolia!

Tell me how can a student who pass the exam with flying colours would not have at least 1 cm of common sense in his head.

Remember your life does not only confined in a rectangular SPM books.

p/s: Don't take my word seriously. I'm just drowsy. I didn't slept well last night due to a stupid dream. Predator is chasing me and a friend (which i don't recognize) and we ran away by driving a Kancil. The car was so slow i can pratically see Predator smiling and waving at us beside my window screen. God, of all the cars in this world, we picked a Kancil. -_-
