I (surprisingly) woke up at 6.45am today because I was half-expecting a call from a primary school, but none came. This was just as well, since I wasn't exactly ready to face the challenges brought forth by nasty kids. So anyway, I was happy that I could chill out at home. I watched National Geographic while waiting for my brother to come home for lunch, discarded some of my old tutorials (couldn't bear to dump my lecture notes, though) and helped my brother with his homework. Basically, I was in a good mood.
It all seems like a joke now. Just yesterday, I was bitter that I hadn't received any reply from both universities and I was desperately in need of some kind of motivation. Well, my dad happened to get the mail after dinner just now and (thank goodness, my prayers have been answered) I received my letter of acceptance from NTU - Biological Sciences. Finally, a direction in my life. My mum looked like she was gonna cry. My dad told me that I'm supposed to pay for for my hostel fees. LOL.
Then I remembered what Yogez said when she got her letter: "Ohmygod, I can go shop for uni clothes now! Forever 21 here I come!!" I now know how she feels. LOL.
I've just checked my application status with NUS. Finally, it has shifted from "Application Received" to "Application Processing". I'm definitely keeping my fingers crossed. But if things don't go as planned, I'd probably appeal.
All the best to those who are waiting for their interviews/letters of acceptance.
Be patient & stay optimistic, your turn will come eventually.
