It's time to move forward

Alhamdulillah, I managed to get 4 O for my olevel which is BM, history (I had no idea why I get cr8 cos I was struggling answers the questions ;_; ), islamic religious knowledge & food and nutrition. altho it seems a pretty average result, I am really satisfied of it bc its still acceptable for nursing. in fact i almost curse that I didnt get O for my english.. T^T

so here, the application for nursing is open now & i already submitted my form. they asked to choose 3 courses.. well my 1st choice is nursing (general) 2nd choice is assistant dental :p HAHAHA 3rd choice is business & administration.

my mom said that I cannot rely on 1 college. I need to atleast apply 3 colleges w the same course (nursing cos i rlly want to be a nurse HAHAHAHA) actually idk, sometimes i feel discourage & afraid that I do not get the chance to study nursing. My dad & family started to compare my result w my relative, cousins, friends.. them all get higher than mine. like 7 O // 6 O.. I know what I am capable of :(

But its hurt when u get compare to someone who is smarter than you. I'm grateful for what I have now.. I dont need to be someone that its not me. I want to be me. I want to do what I love & expect nothing in return. I want to do things i enjoy without ppl say lowkey abt the course i take. I live not to please anyone or living someones expectation..

it sadden me that I have critismn more than being support. labelling as I am the lowest among my relative, friends, cousins.

However, pls pray for me that I can be accepted to nursing college.. ur prayer for me is trully appreciated!

Need advice from you guys!! I want to chase my drean despite what ppl say but at the same time, i need my chinggu to cheer me up :( ♡

Congratulations! And I feel you, it's almost inevitable to not be compared to a relative or sibling. But do what you do, girl and I support you all the way. It gets tough hearing those words but as long as you do what you want and enjoy it, you'll be alright! It's scary not knowing if you'll be accepted or not but always remember, there's a time for everything. Doesn't have to be this year, can be another or a few more. My classmates aren't even nearly my age. Some are in their 30s and two in their 50s yet they're still keeping it going. Take your time and enjoy life :) it's yours, not theirs

first and foremost, I would like to congratulate you, You know you work hard and that's all that matters. Second, go follow that dream you always wanted, don't let other's put you down, because in the end there is nobody that will support you but yourself. I know how family compare you to other's and it hurts....I too was compared to my sister's and cousins....but only me can make myself happy in the end. Labeling is part of this world, people see us like a tool to compare to other people who we don't have what they have. Criticism is how people are jealous of what achievement you made in your life. But take it like this...just think of it as a compliment, being positive can unmake negative...you don't need people like that. You are far more smarter than you think, even that your result may not be the best you wanted it to be. Hard work and perseverance is the key to make your dreams come true. so, don't be afraid my friend, because life is full of challenges. hope my advice help you in some way. and i think getting a lot of option about which college to go to for your courses/ major is the best way. fill those college submission and if you get accepted great, if not...it's OK...there are tons of college's out there..it may not be from your country but a lot of them accept people like you and me. Good luck! ^^

Don't mind them. All parents do that. Mine were harsher since our neighbor's son is a real genius and I was like a bit smart at school and we both had the same course in college. They would always tell me stuffs like why are my grades low, why did I fail this subject, etc. Especially the time where I quit school and the other guy graduated Magna Laude. My parents hated me. I hated myself as well. But now I have a job and I'm earning well, they stopped saying stuffs like that. Moral of the story is, it doesn't matter how you do and when you do stuffs, it's how you learn from it. Good luck with the college applications!!! <3
