"Doing your best and giving it your all will get you somewhere. All you need to do is believe in yourself and knowing what you want."

Growing up with such an awesome family who supports all the things that I do, makes me appreciate the things I have in life. Sometimes I stop and look back at what my family have done for me to become the guy I am now. They sacrificed a lot for me. As a good son and a brother, it's only right that someday, somehow, I repay them.

At the age of 7 when I first entered primary school, I wasn't quite really a studious boy. At that time, all I wanted to do is have fun and play with the toys I have( I like Batman toys then) and of course do some doodles. During classes, especially in mother tongue classes, I would just copy other people's homework and pass it up at my own. I can't quite recall what happened in other classes, but all I know is that when I got my PSLE results, I flunked. All I can do is to get into a secondary school under the normal academic stream.

Looking at my PSLE results and looking at the stream that I went to, I realize that the time to wake up is now. As I know that I can do better, I paid attention in every class just to prove myself that I am better. At the end of the year, I was blessed with good results and edusave awards. It made not only myself happy, but my family too. From than onwards, I bagged edusave awards for every year untill the end of my secondary education.

Though my O'level results were not that fantastic, I am proud of myself for giving my best to every subject that I took. Though I still do not enjoy the subjects in school, it has taught me that studies are studies, and one should always give their best to whatever that he or she is studying, even though its not what they like to do. After going through the forest of primary and secondary school education, I now find myself a step closer to paradise.

My dream job, my paradise and all the things I enjoy doing is within reach. To get to there, that is when the foundation of primary and secondary school comes in handy. When I reach there, I will never forget to repay my family for their support that they have given to me.

During primary and secondary school, did I have a life? Did I even went out and mingle or did I just sat down alone and make studying my life? People say life is a balance. I would tell you how I tried to balance out between having fun and being serious, next time...
