Future...Undecided

Thank you all for the comments on the previous post. It's always easy to say that probably it's not in God's plan for me to study in Singapore. However, to be able to really accept that fact and live with it, it's hard. Let's just say I had a moderate amount of good things happening in the past and would love to have that streak continue with me doing well in STPM and get a place in NUS or NTU. But as the fact shows, everything ended up the other way round. I thought I was all ready to go study in UMS since I chose there as one of my options besides UTM and UKM. My marks are barely enough for UM,UPM and USM, but still, a miracle might happen? I wish..Haha

Speaking of which, I suddenly have this question around me. Do I really want to study engineering and is it really my calling? Several conversations with Isaac make me want to confirm and give my all to make it a success. There's 2 will according to Jit, God's will and my own. Am I waiting on Him? I dont' know but I know I am waiting for miracles to happen! Haha. It will be May soon and 2009 is like passing so fast. To some of my friends, yes, being humble is good but being TOO humble sometimes make you sound like a hypocrite. Yes, I respect you and therefore I kept quiet for I know I need to learn to talk myself but please, bear in mind the feelings of the people listening when you say you WONT achieve certain things and yet ABLE to get it. I am sad, at the same time furious and envy. Arggh! Something's wrong with me.

Pause..That's where my life is at now, when is PLAY gonna be click and me resume chasing after my dreams with all my heart,soul and strength?>.<

Rejected

Dear Tan Zhi Howe,

We have carefully considered your application vis-a-vis applications from all other eligible applicants. Regrettably, however, I have to inform you that your application has not been successful. I hope that you would appreciate the fact that admission to our undergraduate courses is highly selective in view of the large number of applications we receive, and the limited places that we can offer to international students.

I would also like to take this opportunity to wish you every success in your pursuit for higher education

I supposed the above text tells it all. Yes, I have been rejected. Then again, with only a 3.00 what was I expecting, right? Haha. I believed I will get about 2 more such e-mails in the coming week. Well, at least I can still laugh at myself. So, share a laugh. =)

Life Is A Joke..

I watched the movie The Watchmen couple of weeks back and I remembered a character named The Comedian, who died while saying LIFE IS A JOKE. I think that is quite similar to how I am feeling right now? Haha. Well, doesn't matter. 3 more months. Hm, smile, people for life is a joke!

5 years..

When we finished secondary school,we started talking about what foundation we gonna do. ADP, Form 6 or A levels. For some who had a clearer picture, they went for foundation in that certain courses. Now that most of us had finished our foundation, some had even began uni life, I guess it's time to talk about career options. It's always a tradition for friends to meet whenever there's a holiday like Chinese New Year, to catch up a little as we hardly see one another anymore. If you guys remembered, I talked about a gang called 22 Friends on my blog before. Those are the people I spent my secondary school life with. Now, I can picture the gang 5 years down the road, with all of us working in our respective fields. If I am not mistaken and everything goes well, things should look like this is 2014..
