Yeah! Exam is finally over! Have so many things I want to do this holiday, especially after that horrible stressful 2 months since July.
Today when i checked my mail, I saw this email forwarded by a teacher. After reading it, I felt that what Steve Jobs said in the speech is really true. I quoted this part which I felt what he said was very right:
" 'I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle.' "
After reading this paragraph, I realise that finding something you like to do is really important. Now that I'm in a science course, I know that I really hated science. I hated how the industry is so small and competitive, and how one research needed so many years to do and needed so many evidence to support it. I think it is too late to back-out from what I had chosen and started. Despite that, I still don't know if I really want to settle with science. But for one, I know that in science, it won't "gets better and better as the years roll on", at least I think that's what going to happen with me.
And seriously, not everyone can do something they liked and get rich like what Steve Jobs does.
