Praise Kwats Poems and Quotes

I started seeing my dream of becoming a pharmacist get into shape after choosing BCM/ICT as my combination at A level. I thought it was simple as this; finishing high school, enrolling to University for bachelors in pharmacy, spend 4 years studying (by then) plus one year of internship and boom, a pharmacist. The reality was(or is) totally very different from all I (we) were thinking about.  The Ugandan education system doesn't not favour a common Ugandan aspiring medical student. To beat the system, you have to be either extremely bright, or extremely rich or extremely both. To my line of pharmacy and by my year of enrollment (2020/21) there were only two public universities offering Bachelors in pharmacy; Makerere University and Mbarara University of Science and Technology. What I meant with a common Ugandan aspiring medical student is someone who is capable of entering the line of medical from A level, and also being able to pay the huge tuition fee for the private universities ...

 Our parents did a very big role in bringing us up, but I think there's where they didn't do their best (not pinning them though). Maybe it was because of the generation where everyone thought that handling the child with an iron fist was only a measure of showing responsibility.

The age at which almost everyone is confused is 25. This is the age when one has just finished school, and is now confused about career and life. Stuck between the confused past and the uncertain future. One wants to conquer the world but doesn't have all it takes.  I joined the employment field slightly after school, and a month to my 25th birthday. To me it was the time to fulfill all my fantasies; to conquer the world for my parents first, then for myself. In just a period of 1 year, I've switched the workplace four times and I am about to change for the fifth time in the same year, not dating, no crushes, no talking stages, worried about going back to school at the same time making si much money. My parents are aging and I want them to see me in top. My mind is working like a small factory. Waking up at 3: 00 am and get worried everyday, seeing everyone make it except oneself.
