Above are some books that I borrowed from UBD’s Library. Yeap as you can see, its listing of Counselling books genre. Something which are worth to read during this moment of “nothing to do”. This is just to gain some insight if, I really want to be part of Counseling Department or not. Speaking of counselling being part of psychotherapy, there’s a lot of understanding and memorization of theories approaches that needed to learn. Undergoing that atmosphere is a real challenge and it seems parallel to learn and memories all the meaning of each words in a dictionary.
So here’s the time frame to become a future Student Counsellor in School, in a realistic conditions (Amin):
1) Graduate in Diploma in Primary Education (2009)
- 3 years teaching experience in school
2) Back in Learning, taking Bachelor in Primary/TESL education for 3 Years (2012)
- 3 years teaching experience in school
3) Back in learning, Taking Certificates of Counselling, English medium? (2018)
- Being a counsellor in school for the rest of my remaining age.
This is just a plan, and seriously most plans doesn’t really goes the way we expected. HAHA. I wish I could just speed up time. Maybe by the time I reach being a counsellor in school, I might be 30 years old by then. :S
My brother and I did calculate if I could take an immediate upgrade programme but it seems to be ain’t a wise decisions to take a Loan. After I graduated, I’m sure the lumps of debt I need to pay will burden my way of living in the future. It may be exciting during the early loan and learning experience, but during the working environment, I’m sure i can feel the debt puling my expenses.
I wish there’s a rich fellas, who could give me a scholarship independently. Being an average person in this Brunei Community its just hard to get such opportunity. With all young youth here and there being so intellectual ability in education, where do I stand and where do I compete?
Thus my dream to gain a single degree will take a journey about 9 years from the day I graduated with 2 A levels. I’m sure those who have the oppurtunity being able to complete a Three year course degree after their A levels is a bless. With this hardship and deep planing of mine, the journey after A levels with you guys (the 3 years degree after A levels friends), I’m sure you understand by now, how most people like me want to be like you and want to be experience what you guys are dealing right now. I hope you won’t take granted of what you have. So I immediate say: “Start working and gain your Degree at least 1st Class Upper (Honour).”
I wish I have the oppurtunities, Amin.
