Everyone has a dream, ever since we were children we dreamt to become a doctor, engineer, teacher or a leader. Every one of us had their own hopes, dreams and goals. Some of us keep that dreams until we grow up to achieve it, and some of us change that dreams from time to time as we grow up.
Well in my case, I had so many dreams throughout my life. It kept on changing over and over as I grew up. I remember my first dream was to be a petroleum engineer, I know most girls would probably wanted to be a princess or a mermaid. But to me, I was a very realistic person, I wasn't that kind of girl who believed in fantasies and fairy tails. Anyways I chose petroleum engineering since my country relies on petroleum for it's economy.
Then after that I dreamt to become a doctor, who help save lives, and wear this awesome plain white lab-coat. I know what you're thinking that's very childish of me. In the 9th grade I had a new dream which was to be an accountant. I remember exactly why I wanted to be an accountant, I used to look up to my aunt H. so much that I wanted to be just like her in every single way.
Then again they told me dream bigger than that, but as I entered high school I was dreamless. I was literary this girl who didn't have any dreams what so ever! It wasn't a nice feeling I tell you that. Throughout high school I tried to find myself, my identity.
It was tough I still hadn't found this dream that I wanted to pursue in life until I reached right to my senior year. Right before starting school I used to watch this TV series called "House M.D" on summer vacation which was about this genius, ignorant, mean yet caring (in his own way) doctor. As I watched episode after episode I found myself so indulged with the medical details and I actually tried to memorize so many medical definitions which in my case was really interesting.
I kept on watching the series until I reached that point where I said "you know what, I am going to be a doctor, to be exact I'm going to be a SURGON!". Yup most of you must be shocked thinking "Why would she want to be a surgeon?". Well let me tell you, its true being a doctor is difficult and hard, but being a surgeon is far much difficult and much much challenging. Maybe thats why I picked it, I wanted to challenge myself. And to be honest I thought it was COOL!
haha I know I might sound weird, but that's just how I feel when I think of surgery. Back to dreams where I'm finally a senior, now I had 1 year to compensate my low grades and bring the required GPA to enter medical school. I've worked very hard to achieve my dreams, but unfortunately it was too late to compensate my shortcomings.
But everything happens for a reason right? I'm not going to deny the sadness that I felt after graduating from high school for not gaining the required GPA. But after graduation I applied for a scholarship to Australia.
I wanted to go to the United Kingdom to be honest, but they weren't offering the major that I wanted. Afterwards I chose this major that caught my attention and applied for it. And hamd-le-allah I'm just satisfied to what Allah have wrote for me, and I think that it is true that he (Allah) might have closed a door on you, but believe me he will always open far more interesting doors for you. Always believe in Allah, and never be sad over not achieving what you have always wanted. Cause in-sha-allah, Allah will be storing for you a much better future. Hope what happened to me will help others to overcome their sadness and agony. Always be positive, nothing is worth taking away your smile :D
