What exactly that you want to do..?

The first two exam papers were done and dusted. Criminal law was my favourite. I have good feeling about it and overly emphasized that i might be getting the best score? Told my mom about it and as usual, "ha, ni nak jadi over confident macam ayah". I just laughed but still persistent with high hope. Legal system was a little bit nerve-breaking. Half an hour before the exam, the rumours about the 'anticipated questions' were discussed among the classmates. I was stunned, "hold on guys, who said that we need to read that? I can only re-called that we need to read the report on solicitors and barristers?". The questions turned out to be exactly what i have missed but still, persistent in my answers; but definitely not getting the best score this time. Like Fintan's (a classmate) complaint to me, "i'm pissed off about the question"....

Before my exam today, my friend; Uderq rang me. I was glad that she called. Thinked i missed talking to some 'real' friend, who genuinely 'listened' and 'concerned'. We talked about many things; about life, our families, studies, friends, etc. The conversation lasted for almost an hour.

Before we ended the conversation, the following conversation took place:
Uderq : Nazeuq, before kau letak telefon, aku nak tanya kau satu bende?
Me : SHOOT!
Uderq : What exactly that you want to do in life? What is your ultimate goal? Aku nak kau jawab betul-betu...?
Me : Hmmm....i want to be so qualified in everything and by the time i'm back, i don't have to rely on a fixed job and can enjoy the flexibility in my career.
Uderq : So you want to practise right?
Me : Yes, i want to go back to CKPN Qs, become the youngest director before i reached 30 and helps to develop the company. Also, i want to settle down by 30 and raised a family. By the time i settled down, i want my career to be absolutely settled and by having that, i can really focus on my kids. I want them to have the best life, education and everything so they don't have to work as hard as me to achieve things that they want...
Uderq : Ok....can you promise me something?
Me : What is it?
Uderq : I want you to promise me that whatever you do, please make sure you finish them. Don't do it half way. I know you are capable of doing many things but this time around, make sure you complete at least something. Aku taknak kau nanti, yang dikejar tak dapat, yang dikendong berciciran....Kau mesti janji dengan aku ok?
Me : *silence*
Uderq : Hey janganlah menangis...!!
Me : Uderq, thanks for the advice. Dah lama kau tak cakap cam gini kat aku. Dulu masa kite belajar dulu, kau selalu remind aku macam-macam, ingat tak? Thanks Uderq...I promise that i will finish everything that i started...taknak main-main lagi..studies, career, relationship...
Uderq : Good...dah dah, jangan nangis...

Uderq, thank you...
