My Daughter Wants To Study Pharmacy

My second daughter wants to study Pharmacy. She’s currently in her final year of junior high school and is expected to graduate next year. One day, I asked her, “What do you want to study in the future?” Without hesitation, she said, “Pharmacy.” Her answer surprised me. I hadn’t expected that but I respect her decision and want to support her dreams. As a parent, I believe it’s important to follow our children’s interests, even if the path is not easy.

I’ve been researching the cost of a Pharmacy program, and I found out that it can be quite expensive around 480,000 IDR per month, or $ 30. I’m not entirely sure if I’ll be able to afford it, but I sincerely hope that I can. I believe that with hope, hard work, and a little faith, good things can happen.

Sometimes I wish the universe or something like Hive could grant me a little magic to help secure a better future, not only for my daughter but for my whole family. For now, I rely mainly on my teaching jobs and selling Mambo ice to make ends meet. It’s tough work, especially when the income isn’t always stable. Still, I keep going.

I hope that in the near future, I can earn more either through teaching, expanding my business, or finding new opportunities. I want to give my daughter the chance she deserves. Her dream is becoming my motivation. No matter how hard it gets, I will keep trying.
