SPECIAL ENTRY: DO SCROLL DOWN TO READ IT ALLL Sim Yee's birthday haha.... met up at NYDC after baking at Jes's house... see below... how huge my salad bowl was..... goodness.. steph and meizi chipped in to finish it up... we slacked at TCC afterwards..... cool.... so wad now that i've known i 've been accepted into NUS. hmm.... for starters, im really grateful. I appreciate those well wishers and those who took the effort to send me means of congrats.
I know for people like Shuyu and Jeslyna who have heard my grumbles and my history about how tough it is to get in, how i needed to buck up.. during the start of 2007. When we were still working together, the encouragement they gave me.
I really, trully appreciate all of those, and i like to dedicate this moment to them. Without such help, there really wouldnt be me. I would also like to thank all my group mates, who have been kind and understanding to my high expectations and stuff when it comes to presentations...haha.. guess only people like Chalven, Cheryl, Shiya and boots understand hahaha.....
It'd definitely wasnt an easy path. I was in between work and school. Than i got lost between the fine line. I was lucky enough to finally walk out of the disillusion and took a month break from work to sort out my studies. Which till today totally no regrets about.
There are some things in life, you know that there is that one only shot. You'd just really got to put your heart and sincerity out if you really want things to work out. But than again, no matter how confident you may be, there is no guarantee. So what do you do? For me, i just smile and smile and be positive.
When i was awaiting my turn for the interview, i saw people with PORTFOLIOS as thick as YELLOW PAGES and i stared at what i have- Just a SIMPLE BLACK 30 pages clear folder. I thought to myself, do i really stand a chance? With what i have to present in front of the judges ?
I did it anyway. I know there is no person identical to me. I am me and i the only justice i can do for myself is to present myself as honestly and as uniquely as i am. I'm not going to be no other people, im just going to be myself.
and.... I MADE IT!!!!
I am happy, not because i know the hard work pull of, but because of the way i carried and presented myself in front of people i have the utmost respect for.
The immediate acceptance they gave me!! I will always remember. Just like how i promise them i wont disappoint them, i would not disappoint myself too.
A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HAVE SUPPORTED ME!!
i'm not gonna stand here and wait.
