Was talking to mom about university today and I decided to...... scrape that plan. I don't intend to further my studies in the UK anymore.
I have five to six practical and realistic business ventures in mind, I refuse to let them go for the sake of getting a degree. After all, the money and time spent on getting that cert could be better spent on building my businesses up. That's where my real interest lies. I've never liked studying. Yes, I get mediocre grades without studying, but it doesn't mean I'm good at it. I just happen to retain more information with just a glance, instead of memorising information.
And if these business ventures work out, I'd be set for life at the age of 25. Then I'll give myself 3 years of rest before building them up big and proper.
I can never ever work under somebody for long. How are my parents gonna expect me to do that, till the day I retire? I abhor that very thought... yeah its good money
(cos of the course I'm in) but still!!!!
Ever since I started running an online business at the age of 15
(I shut it down at 16 cos I was lazy *looks away*), I loved every single bit of it. It brought in good money, and I knew I was capable of doing much more when I'm older.
I'm older now. I'm 18, presumably old enough to make my own decisions. I don't want to enter university. I want to start running my own businesses. Mom agreed anyway, after hearing me talk about all the business plans I have in mind.
I have two more years to go, and I'm ABSOLUTELY excited. In fact that is a total understatement. I've already started doing up certain preprations... Miss Lai tells me I need to relax but my mind is always working hard.
And to the ones who have been waiting to watch me fall... God bless your soul.
