I have been thinking much about money lately, specifically for SEP.
'Where am I going to get this huge sum of money from?' I always ask myself. I have always wanted to go on SEP after knowing the scholars from my class in my jc days so I keep telling myself 'there must be a way, there must be a way.'
but is there really one?
Yuan talked to me recently about this issue and she pointed out exactly what has been on my mind all these while I cant help but look at the cruel truth pointed out right in front of me now. I cant be all that optimistic anymore right? The time seems to come for me to decide if I am indeed financially stable enough to go. or not.
There is really this chance that no amount of tuition, scooping ice cream, data entry and phonaton can help me.
There is really this chance that my parents will really truly have no money, even if they would love to give me every cent on them right now.
So what would I do when that day comes? and I would have to photocopy that damned bank statement? Get yuan's and pretend that everything will be fine and I will be able to somehow somewhere chance upon that sum of money?
If I promise not to splurge anymore, will I be richer?
If I promise to eat hawker and maggi and home food everyday, will I be richer?
If I promise to wear the same clothes for the next half a year, will I be richer?
Most importantly, will I be rich enough to go on SEP without being a burden to anyone? Because what Yuan says is right.
