Yes, I have boycotted something important in my life for something much more important in my life.

After my degree in college, I started my job hunt and finally got a good paying job for my level of education and it was a dream job for me and a month to my official resumption I decided to try out taking a form to further in my academics.

At first I was skeptical about it, I needed to school the more but o needed the money as well as the experience. I just decided to try out my luck.

A month passed by and I resumed my job and two months passed by without hearing no news from the school on the status of my admission, I then lost hope and was thanking God I didn't throwaway the job offer.

By the third month when I've lost hope on admission for that particular year, I received a letter from the college admission office I was applying to that I've been admitted to further my studies. This came as a shock to me because it was the same day I received news from my boss that I'd be part of a research team to another country which is my dream come through. Some would say it was a double blessing but I was stuck in a quagmire because I had to resume school immediately if I plan to meet up with my studies.

I weighed my options and decided to let my boss know I'd not be going on the researchers expedition because I would be going back to school. I felt I had bitter because I might not get that kind of opportunity again but I also felt Happy because furthering my academics is my dream come through.

I boycotted the very much important job and research expedition for my very much important academics. Both were important but my academics was more important.
