stormy waters ahead

I suppose this wouldn't be the first time my dad isn't too happy about the decisions I make or have made.

2005 - Resigning from Hijjas Kasturi Associates.
2007 - Dropping out from the Master of Architecture, back to Bachelor of Architecture.
2008 - Applying for an Australian PR.
2009 - Resigning from MKPL and return to Melbs for further studies.

Honestly it is disheartening for me to go against his wishes but at the same time, I've always did and I suppose I still will. I stand firm on my decisions as I have concrete reasons for making them. Though, I just wish he is a little more understanding as I do get upset for grieving him.

Then again, this is what happened on the 3 earlier occasions:

2005 - Got into GDP which turned out to be most beneficial for my education and my career. This is where all the high flying career bit started.

2007 - One massive argument over the phone and my final year in B. Arch turned out to be the most memorable of all, complete with a first class honours, second highest grade for design that year and a Bates Smart graduate nominee. Better yet, it preluded to me finding out what I was looking for.

2008 - Upon seeking my way home, I've been taught humility and truly learn to walk closer and to trust the Lord.

The outcome of my decission this year is still to be determined. All I can do at this point I suppose, is to give my very best.

And pray hard that God by his grace will take care of the rest.

sometimes it's better to just close your eyes & take the jump - that's how you'll know it's worthwhile.

You gotta do something for yourself, purely for yourself sometimes.

Might sound selfish, but you will look back, and say "I made the right decision" then.

Like what you told me "Something's gotta give, yea?"
