Background of My Desire

I am a NTU CBE student from Singapore, studying Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering in Nanyang Technological University. 

I have always wanted to study overseas. I am curious about the education system elsewhere, is it as stressful over there? Is it like what the movies portray? Where social standing of different students (cheerleaders, jocks, goths, nerds) in America’s schools is very obvious?  How is the life of students elsewhere? Will I change? The way I speak, the way I look, the way I feel, will all this change after spending a long period of time overseas? Will my family and friends change because of my absence? Will destiny and fate be altered because of this move?

With this burning desire to study overseas, the cheapest method that I can go with my current grades is SUMMER STUDIES at SKKU.

Basically, I want changes. I felt stuck in a repeating pattern and I foresee running a rat race in the future after graduation when I start work. I want to start afresh somewhere like a baby, where no one knows me, I wonder, when I am free from the expectations and responsibilities, how will I react, how will I draw my new life?

Updates:

4 years after this Korea trip, I am currently a digital marketer writing eBooks, making YouTube videos, Facebook live sharing and creating content.  I have never ever thought that I would be doing such things for passive income. I have always thought that with my shy and introverted personality, I would just be doing a 9 to 5 job. With my efforts spent in getting my degree in Chemical Engineering, I never really thought that I would drop that title to pursue business and entrepreneurship.
