It's almost a year after my graduation, and I thought this is the perfect time to back to school again.
I had a dream to be an earthquake scientist when I was in a high school. Studying the longitude, magnitude, and so on would be interesting. I would be a person that help people to know the volcano activities, so they can move when it's dangerous. Unfortunately my parents disagree with me. That's not a woman's job. So I'm changing my direction. Not changing into another destination. I'm just re-routing. Take another path to head to the same direction.
It's not easy to re-routing. It makes me change the whole plan. But we are not that smart to see changes in life, are we? We just have to be flexible.
For me, it works.
So here I am, in the middle of the night, googling about latest issue, because in two days I'll be interviewed for scholarship. I applied for Planology, with disaster risk planning concentration. I would study about disaster countermeasure and community development to reducing disaster impact.
Maybe I'm not the earthquake scientist that monitoring every single earthquake activities. Maybe I'm not the first person that give early warning. But I'll be the person that help people that live in a high risk area to prepare themselves. I'm helping them, by make them ready.
And that's how I re-route my journey.
