Cold Nostalgia

Bye 2011, hello 2012

Here goes another attempt to revive my blog. Been wanting to blog for very long but procrastination always gets the best of me. BUT, I shall make an effort this time round. (I say this to myself every time)

Well anyway, 2011 has come and gone, so has my schooling life (until I get into university). Many things have changed, especially friends. It's really funny how you can put your all into a group of people, disregard time with family and other friends to spend time with them, place them as high priority and regard, and that group you call good friends turn their backs on you just because of one thing you did (morally) wrong, even though if it wasn't directed at them. It goes to show the superficiality of human beings. (but then again, I did something wrong, so who am I to judge? even if I conceded)

So there goes my only group of 'friends', I'm not shy to say I've lost all my friends now, it's better than being around with bogus 'friends'. But I do cherish the times we've had, it was really fun while it lasted. I wish, however, that I had spread out my time to bond with other people as well.

That aside, I've found a really great guy, a really wonderful boyfriend. Not that I'm boasting or trying to comfort myself for the turn of events or being cliche. I'm really thankful to have found someone who is so alike me, and with whom I can always be myself around without having to worry that he finds me sickening one day. and.. I love him to bits (:

It sucks that poly life is over. Sucks even more that I didn't get into the course/school that I wanted (and still want to go to). Really regretted not putting effort into scoring better during Year 1 and 2. I did my best in year 3 though: scored rather well but it was too late to pull up the very-average-DMC grade, which is not enough.

Therefore, I'm working now, and REALLY hopefully (please pray for me), my work experience helps me with this year's application. NTU applications starts in Feb, and I'm already feeling so nervous and stressed about it now. WKWSCI, I really wanna be part of you. I've put in my best to prove myself ever since Year 3 till now, and I pray that I will be rewarded with a place. Sure, I can go somewhere else, private uni or smth, but it still isn't as wholesome. And it's expensive too.

Work-wise, I've worked at MDA previously as an admin/event assistant for the ScreenSingapore 2011 project. Really great experience and met lots of wonderful people there that made my short 1 month+ stay memorable. Currently working at MCYS, Youth Division now, for Youth.SG, pursuing my writing interest. Worked for 3 months as an intern, miserly pay but it doesn't matter as I want experience, not money. It's great though, as I got a good boss and colleagues, and a place where my work is appreciated. :)
BUT STILL... work life is so tiring compared to school. I WANT TO GO BACK TO SCHOOOOL. I miss studying.

That's all for now. Pretty much sums up 2011 for me.
After typing all these, I realise my first post into reviving my blog seems so emo. lol~ Ahhhh, whatever.
