CHOICE

life in ipg...

Man’s power of choice enables him to think like an angel or a devil, a king or a slave. Whatever he chooses, mind will create and manifest. ~Frederick Bailes~

i believe every human will experience how to make a very difficult choice in his or her life. so am i. for me, choice is about taking risk just like the poem 'the road not taken'. the poet tried to tell us how hard for human to make choice in life. i myself experience how to make decision about two choices. it will not hard if we need to choose between  good and bad things. but it will be extremely hard to choose the best between the better.
when i was 18 years old, i need to make a very wise choice for my future to be a very successful person. i need to choose whether to stay in uitm for TESL course or went to IPG for maths course. i really don't know what to do. i have no idea which one to choose. all my family members suggested to me to choose ipg because the opportunity to get job after finishing study is bright. in addition, i will be fully supported by the government as i'll receive allowance. personally, i love staying in uitm because the environment there were really comfortable and i met many good friends. we like siblings even we only knew each other for about a month. besides, i really love English. for me English is fun and i enjoy learning it. after thinking for quite a long time, instead of staying in uitm, i choose to study in IPG Kampus Perempuan Melayu Melaka. at first, i regret myself for choosing to study there and i thought i've made a very wrong choice. yes, it's true that it doesn't matter where i study either in uitm or ipg because i will still become a teacher. i love to be a teacher since i was kid. teaching is my soul. besides, i think teaching is a very noble job. why i said so? because there will no doctors, engineers, architects or even minister without a teacher. if i choose uitm i'll be english teacher. if i choose ipg i'll be maths teacher. honetsly, i don't really like maths subject since i was in standard 1. i think maths is terrible and horrible. i ever failed my add maths subject many times when i was in secondary school. fortunely, after 3 years struggling to be future maths teacher, now i find that maths is extremely fun and interesting. i enjoy learning it. now i realized that i've made a very wise choice to choose ipg because i can learn both english and maths and the same time. my love for english subject is endless. it's a really good opportunity for me. moreover, i learn how to be a good teacher in ipg because we're being train very well by the lecturers here. now i admit what had my former maths teacher said before. she said that we use maths not only in classroom but in our daily life as well. even when we die, we still need maths. 
i feel happy and satisfy to choose to study in ipg instead of uitm because my life change to a better life in ipg.  i feel regret for regretting choosing ipg at first. now only i understand how hard the poet for 'the road not taken' to choose his choice for a better life. it's impossible for us to choose both in our life. either we like it or not, we still have to think wisely and choose which one is the best for us in future. the most important thing is never regret our choice if we had choose the best choice. it depends to us on how wise we make our choice in a good or bad ways.
