" if you think you can make our own decision , show them you can "
" i don't know , both are my favourite countries you know "
well , now i regret that i don't even write a single note when the lecturer gave a talk about the 3 countries which gmi will be sending us to . they say that it's no use to cry over a spill milk .
" you don't need to be afraid if you think you are right "
" stand up for your own right "

" dad , i need to talk to you "
" yeah ? about what ? "
" well , it's about the country that i should choose as my next move for degree "
" ah , yes . i really want you to further your study to germany . they're the best you know "
" yeah papa . i know . but my friends said that there are a lot who can't make it to the end . they're stuck in the 3rd year . how am i suppose to pay all the fees if i ended up like them ? "
" who can't make it ? "
" the malaysians . not just malaysians , the germany students can't make it as well . the exams must be so hard that even the german students can't do it . well , it's not about the language thought . "
" hmmm , but your german language , you can do it right ? "
" yeah . i guess "
" if you don't want to go to germany , then i would have to suggest you to go to... "
" uk papa ? uk is the best too "
" if you can't make it to germany , you'll be further your degree in um "
" WHAT ? ! "
i spent my days thinking about my papa's decision . why he wouldn't let me further my study in uk ? why must um ? um is a very tough , for very very brilliant students .
" um is the best universities in malaysia that provide engineering course "
come to think of it , my dad was once a student there .
it's not that i don't want to go to germany . i really do . especially in further my study in overseas . but among the countries , uk and germany are my favourite . when i knew that after 3 years of diploma in gmi , then mara will send us to one of the 3 countries that gmi suggested , i was like . all i ever think of is going to GERMANY .
why ?
because i think that not all the people can go to germany , as germany has their own languages , cultures and other stuffs that makes them different than other countries . i learn german language ever since i got the offer of entering gmi .
having to further my degree in germany will have to cost me 4 years staying there . without going back to malaysia if there's holiday i guess . mostly students will choose australia or uk because the engineering there just need 2 years to study degree .
" the education in uk and australia needs to pay . that's why i don't recommend you to go to uk "
well , sometimes we think that it's the worst but it is actually the best for us . parents' decisions are the best . i must agree with that .
" you've wasted 3 years in gmi , and you'll be entering um ? "
" no mama . i wont . i will go to germany "
did i just say that ?
shortly , i just wanna say ,
that even though i think that germany isn't the best choice for me , because of the stories that i've been heard , and i know how far i can go ,
but that doesn't mean that i can't go far enough . those are the challenges that only the best among the best can handle them .
to me , those who can study overseas are the best among everyone , but to be the best among the best is to take the challenges and learn from mistakes .
parents choice is always the best . they know what is the best for us , for them , for the future . cause some of them just don't get the opportunity like we do .
