This is called ' flat on my face'!
Finally, the day has come. The day that I've been waiting since April. I received letter from NTU. As expected-
rejection. I feel so stupid for believing there's hope for me to be one of those ppl who gets late offers. Greater the expectation, greater the disappointment. I also received both my acceptance letter from SIM. The situation seriously sucks. The course that I want costs more than double than the course that I didnt want that much. But more ppl are applying for the course I didnt like so much.. plus they have direct honours.
I guess I will not be choosing the one that I always wanted. Stupid yeah? I think so too.
Im afraid that Im gonna have real puffy eyes since I cried till.. haiz...
Im so accustomed to failures, I forgot how it feels to not fail

End of World, today? Im still alive! Am I not?
Some guy in US predicted that today's the end of the world! But what? I'm still
alive and kicking. Plus I just had a ginormous buffet at Holiday Inn. The food the is so-so, I guess. But I love the service! :) The crew there is very attentive, they clear the plates whenever we finish our food on our plate almost immediately which means we get to go a few more rounds. Haha.
The crew even sang Birthday songs for whoever that's celebrating their birthday there. They do it voluntarily, one of the crew members plays the guitar while some other crew members sing. They went to many tables, which is very near each other and ppl celebrating birthdays come in large groups. Haha. There's even someone requesting for a
50th Wedding Anniversary song. Only the person playing the guitar knows how to manouveur his way through the
birthday-become-anniversary-song Other crew members totally have no idea and could not follow. LoL.
There's a table with a birthday girl, maybe aroud 5 years old? The moment the guitar guy starts playing and the crew singing, the girl cried and the guitar guy was like singing"
Don't cry lady..!". He immediately cut short the song and tried to comfort the girl and paisehly moved to the next table. LoL. Afterwards, the crew keep going back to check on the girl, making sure that she's okay. The service is good or what!
As for food, my favourtie will be their desert. They have
durian jam/custard(?), it's special and not bad.. quite nice :) There's also Ice-cream Waffle & Crepe which they make on the spot. Also, small plates of desert, Im not sure what are they called, but they look very
cute.
Overall the food is ok.. nothing super special but the service is
Awesome:)

It's Vesak Day
Happy Vesak day!
Went around many temples to pray. Whenever Im in a temple, somehow I would always feel very serene, like you can finally slow down your pace and reflect on things. However, there are times where I question myself if we humans are weird creatures. I mean we believe in things that we do not see personally. I don't mean put anyone down or anything. These thoughts just came to me, somehow. Still, these serene moments are just good to have.
There was a lady that was snapping pictures with her iPad, so irritating. She's taking pictures of ppl "bathing" the buddha statue. She just stands infront of the statue obliviously with her gigantic iPad snapping pictures. She did not take one or two pictures, she stands taking tons of pictures for I-dunno-what. Ppl are praying yet you just point the lens at them, somemore, the camera isn't even a professional camera. If you're a professional photographer, please use a professional camera and not just any camera even worse, not a camera. If you are just some random tourist, where are you standing at the same spot taking almost same pictures and of ppl queueing? These ppl ah.. *shake head*

Tomorrow's a PH! But I dont feel the excitement..
Tomorrow is public holiday! :) It's Vesak day! But still gotta wake up early. I seriously miss my sleep-till-12pm days. I don't hate work, I just hate having the need to wake up so early. It feels similar to waking up for school, except that you have an extra vex of deciding what to wear for work. Looks like I have to deal with this for the rest of my life, cause there's no more uniforms, ever. I miss my uniform :(
This is 3rd last week before the last acceptance letter is sent out. I didnt get mine while everyone around me got theirs. I guess it's time to give up hope of getting into a local U and look forward to a private U life. Inferiority. Sigh. The private school is at another end of Singapore mind you. Looks like studying will not only thing that will kill me. I'll be looking forward to the letters from the local U, a rejection that is.
I hate it when ppl tell me, " You'll get your acceptance letter, it might be in your letterbox already!" I understand they are trying to comfort me, but at the same time raising my hope. They are good friends but they are only raising my hope only to have them crush everytime I open the letterbox. This feeling totally sucks.
I realised that I got rejected by NUS and SMU online already. I really want to get into NTU, but no news at all. Sigh.
Please, letters, come to me
even if you are a rejection letter (
of course I wish you are an acceptance letter but the chances are so low).
