If you can see in my blog page, I wrote that I am an ordinary kid with a big dream. Yup, big dream indeed. But to achieve it is almost impossible. Since I was young, I like look thing in big picture. People would thought of Malaysia, I would thought of the world. People would thought of the solar system. I would thought of the Milky way galaxy. I like to expand my thought to the limits. When I was young, I like to watch the night sky. At that time light pollution is not obvious.
When I look at it, I have the feeling that how tiny we are and how infinite the universe is. Why we should limit our selves in the planet and not going to explore the universe? Later I come to understand that human do not have the ability and technology to travel to outer space. But we still can explore the universe through observing the universe. Therefore, I have made up my mind that I want to be an astronomer. I want to study the universe. There are so many mystery in the universe and we only manage to unveil it a little bit. It has to come to the Galileo Galilei to start positioning the Earth in the solar system. Before this, human are still thinking the Earth is the center of the universe and only a few stars orbiting the Earth in the universe. Then, we start to discover the Solar system, Milky Way, and many more galaxy. The more we found out in the universe the smaller we are to appear.
The curiosity of the universe had make me wanted to learn more about astrology. But sadly, I am born in Malaysia where no people actually give a damn about astrology. I also born in a poor family where I can't own a telescope. These caused me to drop my ambition long time ago. But I still keep dreaming if I can be an astronomer. Indeed, a dream is still a dream when you do nothing to realize it. But luckily, I have found my another good friend which is physics. Physics include everything is the universe. It explain how the universe is born and predict how it will ends. Therefore, I have more and more interest in physics when I was in secondary school.
When it came to university, I decided to choose courses related to physics. But I didn't choose the physics course it self. This is because I know that those who graduate with physics degree will have a hard time to find a job. So, I rather choose engineering course than physics course. It is sad that Malaysia is not a developed country where a lot of funds can be invested in studies of physics and astrology. Malaysia don't even has any giant telescope. If Malaysia is advanced like United State, I would probably became an astronomer already. But, I still keep my dream because who knows what will happen in the future. Suddenly, Malaysia develop and the government has the fund to invest in astrology.
Now I come to realize that ambition is not what you will actually become. It is more like an interest. It never fades away although you can't achieve it. As what I have planned, I will become an engineer first. Until I have enough money and time, then I can start to pursuit my dream. It is never too late to realize my dream. I love astrology and it still remain with me until I die. Hopefully, I can unveil a little bit more about the universe before I die. That's all about my ambition...
