My Future, My Choice

In most of those Disney movies the child always say, "It's not my dream, it's your dream dad." Well, I think this is happening to me. Before my parents found out about how much university and dorms costed, they always told me, "Oh, you can go to any university you want to and we'll pay for everything." Now that my brother is in his dorm, my parents are forcing me to go to University of Toronto. It's not that I hate that university but ever since I was little I expected university to be the first part of my life where I get to live far away from my parents. They told me that when I get into a university, they would move closer to their stores. University of Toronto meant no dorm life and my parents nagging to me about everything. Even worse was that with their store right beside the university, they can visit me any time. Seeing my older friends from churches in universities now, I saw that dorm life meant an easier time making closer friends. I don't want to be those losers that have to bus back and forth while my high school friends are be hundreds of miles away from me. After aruging for quite a while my parents said, "FINE GO TO WHICHEVER UNIVERSITY YOU WANT TO GO TO BUT YOU'RE PAYING FOR IT!" Now, that is so UNFAIR!

I am not 100% what I want to be when I grow up but dentistry is on my list. I want to go Western Ontario for their dentistry program. Their program is a little easier than University of Toronto which means higher chance of me graduating! (: Western Ontario is popular for its partying but I don't think that will be my problem. University are the first few steps of adulthood and wasting that on partying is just stupid. Not only is it wasting your parent's money but you're losing valuable time. Partying may seem fun at that moment but not after all your friends graduate and have their own career.

I think dentistry will be a good path for me. Not only does it make lots of money but I can also join missions in church to go overseas and help the people in poverty. God has put every one of us on this earth for a reason and helping others is definitely what he wants from me.

If my parents don't let me choose what university I want to go to, I think I might just shoot myself in the head. (: jokes!
