Last weekend, I was back to Changhua and went
out with my friend who hasn’t met each other for a while, sharing our current
lives. Within our talk, from his saying, I got the concept from him and reflect
myself—choose your love, love your choice.
He
is a junior, major in medicine in Chung Shan Medical University. In the beginning,
he chose the school of medicine in order to make his dream come true—curing
patients and helping people maintain healthy. For those three years in his
college life, he has felt himself hard to catch up with the other classmates. He
needed to spend double or triple time preparing his work but got the poor
feedback or just in vain. He was frustrated in his poor performance. In his
second year in college, he was quite unsure if he was the one who will become a
good doctor. Doubt of himself, he became unconfident about his academy work and
almost lost himself. Looking at piles of books and collaborative writings (共筆), all he got is nothing but only hopeless. For him, the way to be
an excellent doctor was the toughest period he has had. Fortunately, in this
tough period, his family and friends around him cheered him up and gave him
lots of helpful tips for medical learning. Thanks to his perseverance, he has obvious
progress on his academy now. Although the knowledge of medicine still hard for
him to understand, he isn’t afraid of facing it anymore. Moreover, he finds his
original passion and dream back, studying hard but with joy. He told me that loving
what he chose is an idea which push him go ahead and make him study with
passion. Now, he enjoys his major, and head to his dream job step by step!
After
hearing the experience about his way on learning, I think of the condition of
myself. I am just like him in the past, struggling the hole I dig for myself, regretting
any decision which I made, and even wanting to quit what I liked. However,
those tough obstacles I have encountered make me forget the original passion
for English. Am I really an inappropriate one in this department? Am I really
tired of English? It seems not really. I am tired of it just because of having bottlenecks;
I am frustrated in it just because of being scared. After reflecting myself, unconfidence
and difficulties should not be the excuse to quit. “Choose your love, and love
your choice.” It reminds of me that never let obstacles stop myself go for what
I like. It is the shortcomings do I need to learn. It is the passion for what I
chose do I need to face the difficulties bravely. After refinding my original
passion for English, I hope that I can hang it on and learn much from what I like!
You are finally determined that English is still your passion. 映捷, do not worry about the scores, though they do give some indication after comparison for that particular assignment. However, no score is telling you what will happen in the future! No score will limit your development. No score will say that you will never get better at what you like. The more you do it (your passion), the better you'll get at it.
