couldn't think of anything else more officiating than blogging
i'm making it official. i'm leaving soon for uni in melbourne. and by soon i mean in 3 weeks. i know.. i know.. its too soon. too soon for anything and everyone. and it's always the same response..
"what?!" / "gee.. that sucks man.." / "what about all those things you've planned out" / "just after ORD!?"
believe me. I KNOW. i feel every pain and bewilderment you assume my oblivious mind or feeble heart could not handle. how about something more positive next time. i'll start with this -> :)
just to lay out certain facts
1. i had the idea and slight intention of going back down under to study. but not that soon.
2. i've a perfectly great place in nus with so much to look forward for.. but i scaled both of them side by side and.. straight to the point - it is my choice.
3. timeline wise. i didn't really have much of a choice. its either now or next year. i fought hard, prayed hard and requested for semester 2. but was replied with no, no and no.
4. i get to go all the way to masters with practically zero dollars!
5. evelyn was telling me that sometimes we have the urge to leave everything behind and start again with no strings whatsoever attached. like pressing life's restart button. you know what? maybe i do. seems rather cool a thought.
6. like said. i just wanna graduate good and earn enough money so that i can go into my passion of food and music. (you need capital you know)
what can i say.. life sometimes presents itself as an unstoppable freight train or a draft of wind caused by a wave of God's hand. either way, i'm not quite prepared.
i should blog again about this with a more settled and stablised frame of mind.
