Hey guys
I am sorry for not updating for a week
I flew to KL for the past 4 days
The best part is it was a last minute trip
I booked the ticket 5 days before my departure
Although I was not lucky enough to grab the zero fare
but it was a 2 dollar deal instead which is a pretty thing for last minute booking
-
Sometimes, last minute stuff does injected excitement to your agenda
*But don't apply last minute theory to official matter, for god sake
For bitches who hurt me so deeply, I am sorry I have to tell you I am getting away from you

It was a wonderful trip as this was the first time I joined the other programme for a trip. Easy going and no fixed schedule, we moved at our own liking. Just forget about the Jogoya's buffet, food was awesome but everyone got diarrhea after eating. The exorbitant price was totally not up to the hygienic or freshness you expected. One of the most notable meet-ups was with Roti Canai Telur Bawang at Snowflakes Sungei Wang! It was like close to two years since we last saw each other! I am still shamed of myself for not preparing a gift for him as his birthday is right after the next day we met. One more breaking thing which did not happen was I did not buy any clothing! I am so proud of myself of not spending a single cent on fashion this trip, also because KL fashion is kind of lag behind Singapore and the tag is more expensive. So why spend extra buying something out of season.
The morning which I came back to Singapore (5th March) was a total nightmare. I had profound diarrhea and vomit and I was so weak that I need to cab home right after I landed. The worst part was I have a DPE interview session in the afternoon and I was one of the key panels. The first thing that came to my mind at that instant was - Should I postpone it or ask Thomas to host the interview (Soon I recall that he has ISC commissioning which I don't want to put him in difficult position) so I got to keep my head strong and carry it on. Luckily I still remembered to ask Miss Cheam to print out all the necessary documents just one hour prior to the actual interview. I am glad that I still have my committee members being supportive and even one of them cab to school after attachment just want to be in time for the interview. My heart was deeply consoled. Despite the shivering cold I felt during the interview (most probably due to my fever and weak body after diarrhea that made me feel the aircond to be chiller than usual), I still kept my eyes open trying to persuade myself "I am not sick" which I think it did let me feel better that time. If I were to grade myself, I think 9/10? Well, conclusion for the interview is - those expected to perform did well.
My "mum" texted me last night when she halfway marking the paper. I was shocked that she told me the overall results of my paper for our cohort. I think she has given me too much trust by telling me the results beforehand, sad thing is I learnt that the marking system in NYP is not standardize at all. Lecturers might not be happy with each other marking scheme and everyone marked the paper based on standard established individually. The more I know about NYP, the more I reckon the dark side of tertiary institution in Singapore is not much different from those in Malaysia. I hope this does not imply the social ecosystem of Singapore.
Although I feel better over the matter which dropped me out from the list, or perhaps "half-dropped". Sometimes I still get emotionally affected, it is not easy to get over when something you are 101% assured slip away within your fingertips. Today I received news about this overseas programme again, they have some problem with the companies. Although I know my very lovely lecturer does not have the authority to place us, but I still fear the dirty trick he wanna use to outcast me. This is the first time I feel so vulnerable facing an ordeal, technically speaking there is nothing I can do to alter the current situation. Because the arrow was shot from the dark, I don't even know where to put on my defense. Although my mum has been constantly fighting for me, but I don't want to put her in difficult position anymore. This is my problem, and I don't want to get more innocent people involved in. Thanks for all who constantly send me your regards and concern, I will be strong.
When life gives you lemon, make lemonade.
