Ok short update on the latest news regarding my subject rift.
Someone certainly knows how to pull strings all right.A few days ago in school my house dean,Mr Barlow told me that mum called and requested him fo help regaring switching from geo to physics,I heard that and began to conceal my fury.He asked whether I want to change it now or not.With great disgust hidden underneath my skin,I just said as soon as possible.....
Later that night dad called mum and had a talk.It's really gonna blow me up.Mum hung up the phone and told me that I had 2 choices,drop geo or remain with it and get hometaught in physics by dad.Nice,very nice,either way it's physics.Checkmate eh??Well,if I were to go to uni(seriously I just don't feel the spark)I might have one condition:I won't take physics.
So yeah,today I had a talk with Mr Barlow.He explained that he had a 20 minute phone convo with dad and apparently managed to bend him a little.He also said that next wednesday,when dad's back,there's be him having a talk with my parents regarding this situation.I just had nothing to say but apologise to Mr Barlow for involving him into this.I would say I have not seen a better teacher around campus other than Mr Barlow himself.But still,I have run simulations in my mind and do not rule out the possibility of me still having to bear the pressure of submitting to my dad's persistive insistence of taking physics.
He said to me in the phone that night:"Don't you regret the decision you've made"And certainly I do not have any.What's the point of throwing geo away when there's physics on the other choice?It's just some not fair "I've got half-win,half-lose --lose situation and you've got a win-win situation".I don't have regrets taking geo.What's the point of taking something if you do?I've already chosen them,and I certainly don't regret it.Regardless of failures I might have,why concede defeat when hearing your parents say:"See?I told you already,but you didn't listen".
Instead,stand by your decisions,go through the failures and move on.I don't say that we are bound to fail on achieving something,I say that there will be fresh paths that branch out to even more opportunities.
Anyways I'll come with part 4 sometime around next week.It's time I give ratings to the books I've read.Ciao!
