I haven't been posting lately.

But I have tried to type out two posts in the last week or so, but I never finished them.
Anyway, I'm here eating a Van Houten chocolate and wondering about the career guidance survey we took today.
For example, I generally scored high in writing (full), acting, and law.
Law.
My mother's always said I'd make a good lawyer (good in languages, good memory, she says). So has my father (strong sense of justice; he thinks I'll make a good prosecutor). But I don't know how I would take it if the criminal was sentenced to death.
I'd probably feel like it was my fault.
I remember when I was in primary school, I drew a picture of Saddam Hussein tied to a stake and people shooting him.
Now I'm just happy that they didn't show the actual execution on TV.
After the trial, on the day of the criminal's execution, I would sit in my room and hug my knees.
Did I make a mistake? Was I the one that might have caused this man to be pronounced guilty? Was he innocent? Did I kill him?
I don't know, I don't know.
But this test also helps people realise their ambitions, somewhat. Just one-two days ago ZL was asking me what my ambition was, and she finds herself scoring high for research and design.
Ha~
