Your reply is much appreciated! Thank you for your opinion but my school doesn't offer the ict subject! I may have to look further into journalism as I was not aware that ICT is closely related to it. smile.gif but one thing I would like to know is, do you think it is a waste to go through all the hassle that comes with entering the science stream and end up doing something that isn't in the field of science?

I have just completed my pt3 examinations, which is basically the new examination system that has been introduced in regards of replacing the old pmr exams. Not meaning to brag, but I have been put into the first science stream class of my school which, needless to say, isn't the easiest to get in to. However, I am more inclined to language. After much thought and research, I have realized that my potential lies more linguistically. I have done some reading over the internet and have found myself to be very interested in mass comm. Journalism seems to be something I would enjoy pursuing. Unfortunately, the conflict I am currently having is my choice between the streams. At first, when I found out that I was accepted into the first science stream class, I was overjoyed. I absentmindedly thought to myself that if the school believes in me, why shouldn't I believe in myself? Hence, from that day forth, I made up my mind to accept the science stream and just work exceptionally hard to obtain exemplary results. Although it seems as though I have made up my mind, the thought of "will I be good enough?" still lingered in the back of my mind. As one merely states, generally, the majority of parents push their kids into entering the Science stream. It is of a complete opposite with my parents. My mum is an English teacher which may have contributed a little to my love of language. I honestly really do love language, both Bahasa Malaysia and English. This may seem slightly cocky, but I have excelled in them far more than I have been able to score in Science and Mathematics. Back to the point, my parents are encouraging me to enter the Arts stream. They feel as though I may not manage to cope with the pressure of being in the science stream since I am sort of an over achiever and I always try my hardest ( and sometimes successfully achieve ) to be at the top of my form. I am prone to breaking down if I do not understand anything and every night before my exams, I am extremely restless. The fact that my parents want me to enter the Arts stream is also slight worrying and has made me sad. Their actions make me feel as though I am not good enough to be in the Science stream. After giving this much thought, I gave in and finally decided to go for the Arts stream. Alas, another problem arises when I checked all the subjects in the commerce class of the arts stream offered by my school. Apparently, my principal has made it compulsory for all non-science students to take the pendidikan seni visual subject as according her, it is easy to pass. I am definitely not artistic in that way. I cannot draw for my life. Although I have requested to drop seni, she doesn't allow it so now I am in the midst of confusion between the two streams. Personally, I think that seni would definitely ruin my chances of getting straight A pluses in my spm examinations as what I yearn for. My question for all you much wiser,respected seniors out there,do you think I should just choose the arts stream and try to improve my art skills? or should I just accept the science stream and work harder? Thanks if you do reply!!
Regards,
Supriya.
