im rejecting one of my scholarship offers and it feels really surreal. My other offer says conditional offer subject to the terms and conditions and a medical checkup. All should turn out fine, but im quite apprehensive whenever i see the word 'conditional'. Everything feels so uncertain and all the what-ifs start popping out. First it was Cambridge and the IELTS test which i can only confirm in July. Now it's the scholarship. It feels scary having to reject other offers and unis when nothing is 100% confirmed.

It's seemingly so simple to just fill in the form and submit. I know which scholarship im leaning towards. I've thought about it for quite some time already. But with the deadlines so close, I start to wonder if i've considered thoroughly enough what im commiting myself to for the next 10 years of my life. As cliche as it sounds, a scholarship is really much more than the money, it's the career. Am i ready for the job, the opportunities and the challenges ahead? I'd like to say I will be and im really looking forward to finding out what lies ahead. But it's always better to be safe than sorry. Anyone feels the same way?

I've been out with my parents quite alot recently to get stuff for uni like luggage and some winter wear. Oh well, there's sale at Robinsons anyway. It hasnt sunk in yet that in about 4 months i'll be flying off and prob wont be home till next june. That is unless my parents decide that they miss me too much and want me home in december. And of course, that my uni place and scholarship are confirmed. Btw, i realised that im starting to sound all cynical again. Notice the change in tone in this paragraph compared to the previous two. I guess im just not used to writing in proper english. How to pass IELTS like that?

Anw, im still taking my time to blog bout stuff that happened over the past month or so. Various outings and dance nite especially. Anw I just got an message on msn from some unknown user and blocked it. Im just too wary of spams and viruses already.

Oh look, it's 1.12am already. TGIF!

YES Zhixu Mdm!!

okok...decided to update coz i've finally submitted my firm and insurance choices on ucas. Omg, to think it took me more than 5 minutes just to click, check, double check and triple check to make sure i got it right. But at least something's finally out of the way. U dun know how relieved i feel till u do the same.
Ok...im not gonna be coherent here coz too much has happened and i cant remember what happened when. Soo..it's just gonna be whatever comes to mind.

Since Ms Tan's bugging me, here's the pics dear!


first things first..


Y-A-M-Z

our all-time favourite drinks: tehping, tehping, yuanyang



zx practising her h3 maths skills by doing level-1 sudoku

oh look...i wonder who's disney water bottle is that??

so as can be seen...we had YAMZ outing again. First first...we met in school for cheap lunch since i had to go school to get stuff 'certified true copy'. Had fish from stall 6 and yuan yang again after so long. And since miss tan's a teacher, we sat at the teachers' table. Yay! I think im overly excited now. But we didnt do much...just sat in the canteen, eat and tok. Im not complaining though coz the canteen's my favourite place in school. Eating, mugging, sleeping etc. Anyone with me on this one? Also, I met miss koo and talked for awhile while she queued for food. It's always nice catching up with teachers (well, most of them at least), coz it's definitely more casual and fun now. So far i've met mr tham, mr sze and miss koo. Just left the geog teachers. Oops i've gone off track. Anw after school, we went off to plaza sing to catch what happened in vegas. IT'S GOOD! GO WATCH IT!!

I love u gals loads!! Yes..we must have sleepover soon k. Mahjong and contract bridge! Hopefully we'll have some form of abs after that..i hope =))

I think i'll just leave this post for YAMZ outing. Coz i cant seem to blog in proper english at all. Sounds really weird somehow. Next time then!
