.shut me out from this world.

I hate being sick. *sniffles

Didn't even go to work today. There goes my pay. Sigh. Plus all the compulsory leaves..I think I nonit to earn money le. >_<

Had a helluva time trying to sleep last night. My nose kept me awake, like, half the time I was trying to get some shut eye. Urgh. Came back from the doc's not long ago..it's gonna be med, med and more med. Sighness. But I gotta be up and alright by tmr! Cos monday's sentosa day with my darlings! I'm so scaredd I can't go. And shopping on tue with Cor dear. Noo!! =(

Anw, took half day ytd to go for the nus biz talk. It's so different from the ntu one. The ntu talk was straighforward and to the point, telling me exactly what I wanted to know abt the course plan. Nus was so...draggy, so to speak. They kept harping on the good points of their biz fac and why nus is the intelligent choice blah blah. *rolls eyes. I'm not saying that's wrong. But it seems like what they're really doing is playing up the reputation and prestige of their uni. Which, I gotta admit, is really tempting. But but but...nbs has a better degree. Like what Fahmi was telling me, it's not that the nus degree is lousy. It's just that nbs is well-known as a very good biz sch. He was also saying that an hons degree from nus would be more sought after by employers than ntu hons degree. True? I really dunno. Cos' ntu has direct hons, so almost everyone graduates with hons? It's such a headache trying to decide.

I like the nus campus lifestyle. I can really picture myself living there and studying there. It's more dynamic and vibrant la. And, 4 year programme means I dun hafta rush my curriculum in 3 yrs, like in ntu. Plus, I do want to have an active life in uni aside from studies. Like cca and activities all that. But if I'm rushing an hons degree in 3 yrs, where am I gonna find the time sia. Plus...1 more year in nus means more money. And the nus misc fees are ridiculously high. How can it differ so much from the other uni man. Some pple may think it's stupid of me to reconsider going nus cos' of the higher fees. But if you're in my situation, you'll understand why. As it is, 3yrs in ntu plus the lower misc fees are already gonna be a huge burden to my parents. I really dunno how my mum's gonna cope with my sch fees. If she's earning big bucks, I wouldn't be so worried. Too bad I'm not smart enough for a scholarship, or that would be a problem halved. Not to mention the cost of living in hall and just buying sch stuff, transport etc. Sometimes I just wish money would fall from the sky. Even if I manage to work part time..there's only so much I can earn while studying. It's not gonna be enough to pay off my sch fees. That's still just the direct fees. There's still the bank loan that I hafta repay. Freak la.

I shd have stuck to my initial plan of taking a year off to work and save before going uni. But that was acty a backup plan cos' I expected my a-level grades to be shit. Well, they turned out to be way better than shit. So here I am, wondering which uni to go cos' of the money involved. Sighh.

I still have 2 weeks to think before submitting my acceptance. Part of me really wants to go nus. But the realistic part of me is saying, dun be stupid. In the end, it's all the same degree. Just different uni. Why spend so much more knowing that you can't afford to? Plus, I have friends going nbs with me. And I really wanna room with PS. It's all, like, so confirmed. Confirmed that I'm heading off to ntu. I'm just scaredd that I'll end up regretting my choice. I don't want any more regrets in my life. Enough is enough.

Shall leave that to later. I need to talk to somebody about this man. But daddy seems to think I'm perfectly capable of deciding on my own. Urgh. Anyhow, I gotta get started on my ppt. And sleep more so that I can recover before mon. *crosses fingers

I think I shall just use this post to reply tags. Haha.

Cindy* Haha yups I know that! Thanks for your concern girlie. You tkkaire too! Miss ya. =)

Liling* Aiyoh my dear, if you say ur zits are gross, wad are mine man. Dun forget, I'm off medicine already, everything's coming back in full force la. Hai. Dun worry k? You'll always be as pretty as ever. =) I think my kid's gonna fail btw. He said the paper was way hard. >_<

Melfy* Long story, but the thing is, I had to go for tj choir concert at night! That's mainly why. Anw, hope your mummy's okay dearie! Tkkaire k? Love ya.

Sadako* Haha got so many pple tell me that sia. Anw he said mcq was alright. I'm amazed. Lol. But the rest of the paper....*prays hard

Clarinet* Nah I dunno him personally. Happened to chance on his blog then just tagged and linked lor. Your friend?

Okay! Done with the replies. Lol. Thought I'd just shun bian update on the week that just passed. Spent fri out with Cor darling, and we took neoprint! Very nice! Haha. Thanks for the wonderful time dearie. I always have fun when I'm with you. And suki sushi rocks! =))

Went for choir concert with Ter after that. They're really not bad sia. Pretty good, just that they seem to lack a certain x-factor, which is probably why they couldn't get GWH instead of just gold. But still quite good! Worth my money. =)

And ytd was spent with my 29babes! Okay la, although there were only 4 of us (me, joan, xtina and ps), it was still fun. Thought our plans were ruined when it was raining cats and dogs at harbourfront, but after spending an hour plus in the toilet crapping (that toilet is a good place to slack! =p), the weather turned fine! Sun was out shining brightly and everything. So we still managed to get a tan at sentosa! Or rather, ps managed to get a tan. Haha. The most tanned out of all of us. I still look the same. Lol.

Anyway it was great just hanging out with them, playing in the water, playing frisbee, walking, talking...and the lunch after that was pretty good too. La mian and dimsum! *yums. We met Jean and Crys after that at plaza singapura and just hung out. Mostly at the arcade playing photohunt! We're totally addicted to it mans. Haha. Me, xtina and joan even played till 10pm la. Amd still couldn't break the record. >_<

Next week's gonna be a sian week. Nth to look forward to. So many pple quit liao, and others transferring out of concen..sighh. Means more calls to take, less time to slack. =( Wish there'll be somemore compulsory leave sia. I dun really care abt the pay already. I just want at least a day every week where I dun hafta go to work. Or I can leave work early. I'm trying to psyche myself enough to go work happily, at least not feel so miserable answering calls. But apart from being able to see my darls in the office, I can't think of a good reason for me to look forward to work. =(

Ahh wells. Waiting for vesak weekend to come. 3day weekend! And then next mth when I go msia. Although I dun quite like to go there, I'm sure shopping in KL will perk me up. 1 week leave. I can't wait! =))
