now I'm 25, studying in a university as a post graduate . but soon I'll make a choice: should I work or go for further study? Having spent 18 years in school ,from primary school to college , I'm really a little tired , you know,it's really tedious and boring most of the time when you study , especially when I enter the college .But ,I don't need to shoulder much burden of my family now ,and a higher academic degree,mostly means a higher salary and a better life in the future . but the cost is my age ,I've to stay in college till 30 years old .
That's a problem puzzled me this year ,and what's your choice ,dear guys?

it is really true that the more one had gone in the academic level the higher one's salary would be. i wish i could've done this but my priority then was to bear a child since i'm scared of down syndrome that usually happens when the mother is quite old already when she gets pregnant. i made my choice and i stuck to one child because i think one's growth just shouldn't stop at motherhood. am working online since i chose to stay at home. my child already has an account in the bank that by the time my husband and i reach retirement age he is assured of a college education already.
anyway my point is plan your life first. everything gets tedious in this world anyway so try to give yourself a break however little way you can. but be sure any decision you make wouldn't be a source of regret in the future.

Hi,Ritchelle,Thank you so much for suggestion . I guess maybe you've gone through the same dilemma to choose a direction for the future . What I can learn from your words is thinking twice before my decision , respect my own thoughts ,and be sure of not regretting years later .
Considering your child and your family , you drop your previous plan or dream , but from your words I can feel that one who's ambitious and have his own plans will never give up his dream .
out of question , your son shoulder your future expectations and he's promising ,as his mother. Thank you again.

After school try working frist Try to apply to society what you have learned in school. Then you can say if what you earn is not enough for you. Try again to stdy to gain more knowlage to gain more in life in society. Take it a step at a time. Do it slowly gradually. And most of all do it respect to your self

hello,fredll,thank u for your advice.you are right,try working first can can have a test of the knowledge that I've learned, and that can also make me realize what I'm lacking , and then I could study again , but this time more close to the problem. thanks a lot .
