Been away for a little while so I thought I would write something a little longer and perhaps a little more philosophical.
Ever wonder if the choices we made in life are 'correct'? What if instead of picking A, you did B? To be perfectly honest, I am at the point in my life where I am having a lot of doubts in my choices. I think its mostly because I know what choices I make now based on faith and hope. Call it a 'quarter life crisis' if you must.
On the other hand, I have always had to make life changing choices. Just that I have already made those choices long before I had to make them or there was always a 'easy' solution.
Science or arts............ think my parent somehow condition me to think that science was the right choice then. I don't regret it but don't think I really put much thought in that one. Probably the right choice anyway since I think I am pretty good at calculating and all that problem solving stuff.
Studying mechanical engineering........ the only reason I did this is because I knew I couldn't do Chemical Engineering and this was the next simplest to transfer my credits to. Probably a correct choice too since I graduated and feel a little bit smarter than I was 4 years ago.
Working for Micron........well, it was the only job offer I have at the time. Pay was decent, location was different from my college setting, gave me a chance to gain experience outside of Malaysia. Not much of a choice really. I won't say I regret this job since I am learning a lot however there is some doubts. I am not doing exactly what I like to do nor am I doing something I learned in the 20-odd years of schooling. When I was studying, I never thought I would be working in a clean room or anything like this. Still, probably the right thing to do in that situation.
My doubts about my choices these days are not only related to work and education. Things like staying here in the US versus going home. How long should I stay? How long is TOO LONG? When I go back how much will things change? Will my friends still be the same? Things will definitely change but to what degree? These are the things that cloud my mind when I have to stay up all night for my workday (or should I say work night).
Anyway.....enough about that. Back to reality. Just had to reformat my computer, lost all 7 GB of my music. sob...sob....sob..... the good part is, I finally got rid of all the songs I never liked but downloaded anyway.
