Friends have flown to monash.
Dearest saretta, kylie and adele, get adapted to life in aussie; and come back with flying colours on your exam scripts k?
See you guys 9 months from now and love you guys many many :D

LAST day of ut
LAST day of school
LAST day in RP
LAST day of poly life

Am I ready to move on?

Application to NUS/NTU done. I had always wanted to enter NUS. But now, I am unsure of my decision. I am afraid I will regret my decision. I always do. Shall put this aside till the postings are out. No point dwelling upon it anyway.

Meanwhile, my choices are just plain dumb/weird, whatever you can call it. Seriously there is so little science course which I can fill up my 5 choices. So, I just practically dumped any other choices, hoping I wouldn’t be so unlucky to land upon those choices. Here go my choices.

NUS:
1) Science (Life Sciences)
2) Pharmacy (NUS)
3) Nursing (NUS)
4) Science (Chemistry)
5) Business Administration

NTU:
1) Biological Sciences
2) Biomedical Sciences and Chinese Medicine
3) Psychology
4) Accountancy
5) Business

Good luck on my posting results then ):

On the other hand, the laboratory tour to KK hospital was fantastic. Especially the histopathology department. I actually had the chance to see a real placenta. A twin placenta in fact. The medical technologist was like explaining the different parts of the placenta and such. But the smell of the formalin and alcohol could be a little overwhelming at times. I also went to departments like the microbiology, molecular microbiology, biochemistry and haematology departments and had the chance to experiment and view many different specimens. Quite excited about the remaining 2 hospital laboratory tours on the 22nd and 23rd of feb :D

Application to NUS/NTU starts today. After going for the NTU talks on Saturday, I’m unsure of my decisions. Maybe it’s because of NUS not giving us any talks about the various courses and opportunities available to us. For NTU, 4 years straight for a bachelors with honours degree regardless of academic achievements. For NUS, if I’m not wrong, 3 years for a bachelors degree. If results are outstanding then you can continue the 4th year to get an honours. How how how how how? Have a total of 5 choices but can I just fill in 1? Seriously, there’s like nothing for me to apply. Have an urge to apply today but haven gotten my transcript when I requested from OSC yet.

And yes, I am sick and tired of med tech module such that regardless of my multiple Cs I get from class; I decided to skip this last lesson. Deliberating whether to skip Thursday’s lesson. Friday’s lesson is a confirm skip cause I am going to KK hospital for the lab tour. Hopefully I can have a temp job at one of the hospitals which I will be kept busy visiting and touring throughout the whole of February.

Suddenly, I am thinking whether to continue in the field of science. Should I list down Science (Education) as one of the choices?

NUS or NTU?

Suddenly I realised that I have so many "last" in 2010.

Last day of work tmr.
Last 6 days to end of year 3 lessons.
Last 11 days to end of year 3 uts and poly life.
Last 15 days before my friends fly off to monash.

And its back to new beginnings for everyone...

My Quote For The Day:

Life's like this.
You can never be content with what you have.
But due to certain circumstances, even if you are not content, you have to be.

I sort of got things a little sorted out after a long chat with tard over msn.
We poured our so-called sorrows to one another and it just felt great letting my steam out.
Although it was just a random chat, heartfelt words were exchanged with each other and these made my heart feel warm.
Didn’t realised I have such a great friend to drown my sorrows in.
Feel sad thou cause you are leaving in less than 1 month's time.
Unsure if I am able to send you off that day but rest assured we will continue to keep in touch and last but not least, bon voyage (too early to say I think?)

Anyways, went for the dbms graduate networking session with mich and ili after lessons.
Met fg and ben.
Heard from fg about the usual stuffs again.
Seriously, there is no point in appealing.
It’s not gonna change anything.
I have tried appealing last semester with a longggg essay and it didn’t work at all.
Just take it as a lesson learnt for now you knew how I felt when I was in your shoes.

This aside, fg told me to get testimonial for application to uni.
The only person I could think of was ML.
She left the deepest impression in me and i really enjoyed her lessons.
Hope she will be able to help me with the testimonial.

Just some random stuffs again.
If i really get accepted into NTU, that is IF, i think i should accept?
Rather study there than having no uni to go to?
God, pls NUS give me some tint of hope will you?
I am just 0.05 points away from your doors.
That aside, if i do get the ICA temp job, i can just quit my tutoring job. its damn tiring

OK. Enough said for the day.
Good night and sweet dreams (I wish)

Everyone has their future route planned out for them. Some are pursuing their degrees in monash, some in local uni, some going out to work, some entering NS. What about me? My road in front seems so dark and blurred... I used to have ambitions throughout my growing years. Different ones though...

My ambitions:
1. Teacher (during my primary school days). However, my views changed after I saw how students treat their teachers
2. Veterinarian (during secondary school days). However, my hope dashed the moment I lost the chance to study veterinary technology in TP
3. Doctor (poly life). Again, my hope dashed the moment I dropped out of IPBMS due to financial difficulties

Now, 1 month plus to graduation, I am faced with similar difficulties. Unsure of which route to take; some route closed for me...

Routes for me:
1. Going to monash to get my bachaloer degree and then become a doctor (Yep, dashed. Read the above)
2. Going to local uni (NUS to study science/medicine --> possible? Maybe not) (NTU? Not preferred choice)
3. Private uni (money money money)
4. Going out to work (as med tech? Unsure)

Great. One more month to ponder about. Or else I can just go and die.
