one MORE year!?

Have filed for an Honours degree. After speaking to the programme chair(s) and my supervisor, they are confident that I would be given the opportunity to do Honours.

I didn't have fantastic enough grades to be invited, so this is the alternative. Anyways, its all paperwork & red tape from now on with the Media, Communication and Cultural Studies School administration, Department of Immigration, health insurance company and a mandatory health check, again...

Have heard lots of hiccups in the administrative area, too many in fact. Let's hope this sails fine.

I have never been brilliant with academic stuff throughout my life.

People say, 'Kiang jioh hoh, mai jhoh keh kiang'. in english, its 'clever can already, don't act clever'.

One more year in Perth, that makes it four in total.

Its been that long huh?

Whoopieee...

Will Grace wait for her boy who sailed far far away, to bring back a piece of paper? She has waited 3 years already, will she / can she wait one more?

sigh* sometimes life is unpredictable. but we are all masters of our destiny. and Grace darling, i want to hold your hand and walk down the path of fate. Would you hold mine?


*Far far away in the south china sea,
i left, a girl, with tears in her eyes.
i must go where people go to get degrees yahh,
a boy has to study because he wants a good life yahh!
a boy has to study because he wants grace to have a good life yahh!

Grace will scream 'wah, really?!'
the boy will shout 'han lor, boh pian...
Grace will scream, the boy will shout,
neither one ought to pout!

we are silly people living out a dream HEY!

*adapted from an SAF song.

awww, that's so sweet.

so sweet of u to think of this not only as gaining a bright future for urself, but of building a bright future for gracie too. ;p that's exactly what a man should do.

ill be continuing my studies for another 2 years too, n will most probably be away from singapore after that for another 1-2 years for work. sometimes i question if ndru will still be there for me and wait for me. but deep down in my heart, i know for certain that he will. i have no concrete "proof" that he will, but i know he will.

i'm sure deep down u know that gracie will too. no questions about it. :)

walk by faith, not by sight.
