Supporting Documents
I went down to NUS this morning with Tabs to hand in my supporting documents, which I have been procrastinating due to my afternoon working hours and the fact that I've been trying to tie up some loose ends regarding the supporting documents.
And finally, all 4 unis have been settled, application wise. Supporting documents wise SMU's still pending, and that's going to be another trip all the way down to SMU in the morning to personally drop in my documents. Somehow, when it's matters concerning university, I don't really trust snail mail. HAHA Tabs was the one who mentioned it to me, and the idea's gotten to me. But after all, when it concerns university, it concerns your future too, as my mum so rightly said to me.
I swear, walking in NUS is equivalent to climbing mountains. Literally so, because we were walking up so many slopes. And my stupidity of alighting near Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music instead of Yusof Ishak Hall from 96! -_- And yours truly was the one who was sure it was near YIH some more! Tell me how stupid I can get, seriously. -______________-
But in a way it was a good workout for both of us since our originally planned workout at JE Sports Complex failed to materialise. And my legs were killing me after yesterday's intense workout and the good deal of walking within NUS.
As I dropped in my supporting documents in the box, I murmured a silent prayer for the best.
In the name of Lord Jesus, please grant me what I really want for uni, I really have been knocked down so many times academically and school wise. I really pray for the best that I can get, because it's upsetting to settle for second best. Amen.Both of us went to Subway after dropping off the documents as Tabs was craving for the cookies. Not so much for me as I had Subway for lunch yesterday! I think we really live on cheap thrills sometimes. :D
We bought 1 Subway cookie each, then walked out of NUS to catch 198 to JP. And we sat at the upper deck, near the back and started nibbling cookies. I know that eating on public transport isn't allowed, but hey, no harm breaking rules once a while right?
And for the record, we're neat eaters, we never left a single crumb behind. :D
Once again, it's Starbucks Mocha Frappe for me and Caramel Frappe for Tabs.
Seeing JJ students around afterwards while we were on our way back makes me realise one thing:
I miss school.
Seriously, I'd rather go back to study than be working. Not that working life is very stressful, don't get me wrong. But somehow, I feel that working life(and I don't mean part time work!) is meant to be experienced after university. Our teens and early 20s at least are meant to live life to the fullest, and study.
How ironic, that when one is studying, you want to go out to work; then when you're working, you want to go back to your books instead. :/
