either or
just about an hour ago, Temasek Poly's Engineering School for Info-Comm called me up, informing of an interview i have to attend to tomorrow. i would've inserted a wide-grin smiley :D like so, if the course they're talking about is my first choice, but it just had to be my third choice. ok, i know i sound like i'm whining and all but on the contrary, i'm actually quite pleased that i'm shortlisted. hmm maybe not just pleased - more like, grateful, thankful! i guess the prayers i delivered during my fasting days are finally answered, giving me some sense of hope eventhough i'm aware that i'm not 100% accepted. at least i know the people from TP did bother to browse and consider my application.. coz you know, i was from ITE and there's all that stereotypical things people say about ITE students and polytechnics blablabla..

moving on, i have to admit that i'm not all excited about it.. coz i'm beginning to have 2nd thoughts. mannn, irritating much? if i get accepted based on the interview tomorrow, i'm not sure if i really want it. coz Info-Comm is all about (with reference from TP Info-Comm webpage) IT and telecommunications and wireless technology. D: which sums up to: no fun design work whatsoever!! @#%! i'm still slightly bummed about not eligible for Visual Comm but i'm more bummed out now that i'm not even shortlisted for Interactive Media Informatics. oh, that's the first choice btw. so how?

should i (a) let this opportunity slip and try applying for Poly again next year hoping to get accepted to my desired course, or (b) grab this chance to start my school life at TP?; after all, TP is a darn good school, even if the choice i'm shortlisted for is chosen just for the sake of it.

i feel like going for option (b). but i have a feeling Dear will disagree. or maybe he'll agree. oh idk.. he can be so unpredictable sometimes that boy. well not that my decision will be based on his decision. it's just that he can give good advices that can make this brain of mine work a little bit harder to settle with a solid decision.

HAIYAH BALKEYS STOP IT LERRR! belom ape2 dah gini.. -.-" oh well, Paranoid is my middle name.. *smacks head*

on a slightly.. lighter note, something unexpected happened yesterday. so i was fasting again right. and that morning, i finished up making the fruit tarletts mom made. i was arranging those sweet, fresh strawberries and kiwis and grapes into the pastry tarts, and, for countless times was i tempted to grab a bite at those sweet thangs. but i managed to resist. and later that evening, as i was preparing to lay out the food to break my fast, i accidentally popped a piece of veggie into my mouth, coz doing that have always been a habit of mine everytime i'm preparing food for dinner. and it was like, only 15 minutes left till i can rightfully break my fast lah. haiyah gundu. well of course i chewed and chewed thinking how nice this piece of veggie is.. until i realised what i just did. spit 'em out, rinsed my mouth and waited for that 15 minutes to come by. haha. so the unexpected thing i was talking about is not the part where i accidentally ate the veggie, but it is this: how did i manage to resist that delightful piece of fruit tart but i can't resist that humble piece of green veggie? for all i know, i pop in more sweet stuff than healthy stuff into my mouth most of the time. *shrugs*

hmm well ok i'm out. 1hour and 13mins left to mee goreng! :D

go up 6:11 PM
