Yay added a song to my blog,
Life by YUI!!!
Very nice song!!! Haha...and it's a BLEACH opening song!!!
Enough said, listen for yourself guys...Haha
Back to topic,
It's been almost two months since I got posted to this unit. Everything seems fine so far, a bit of changes here and there but I am definitely proud that I actually improved in my Bahasa Melayu (Malay). Now I can translate without relying much on toggletext, which is good C:
I can't talk much about work here, it being in NS. So I shall refrain from talking about work C:
A few more weeks before the acceptance to university closes. I have gotten both letters but I have yet to make a choice. I have more or less made up my mind already. I don't think I should say so much here, just in case they go around reading blogs and decide not to give me what I want =X Well, if you want to find out more, just ask me personally and I will kindly tell you. Recently, I tried googling my name and turns out there are other people called cheeyen as well but I think they are mostly girls haha. Well, I managed to find myself mentioned in blogs of other people as well haha.
I just had a chat with my friend, he just decided on choosing environmental engineering at NUS. I asked him why NUS, he replied that he always like NUS better and he added that it didn't mind because we still have two more years to choose our courses. That was quite true in some sense, I don't really have to think much about it now but what about the girls? This period of time, I can say, could be one of the hardest times for them, to choose the correct course and not regret in the future. There are a lot of factors concerning this. Even I am helpless when it comes to advising my friends on what course to take. It's like the battle between the heart and the mind. The heart goes for whatever it desires while the mind, being the "educated" one, would definitely go for what is best for it. It's not easy for the heart and mind to agree with each other and this leaves people all confused and worrying about what to choose. And to add on, with other "educated" minds around influencing your thoughts, how can you choose the one that your heart desires? This is just how the world functions, people work for the salaries and job prospects yet where are the devotion and enthusiasm that you should find in a career that you like?
Enough said, I think I crap too much, this might make people even more confused. To all the people having a hard time choosing, especially the girls, choose carefully whether with your heart or mind, and be prepared to face the future. Whether or not, you will regret, it's all in the future.
Before I end, an extract from Jeryle's blog (subjected to my editing):
"Universities, they're just like girls.
Firstly, us guys, we need to work damn damn hard to get into a university. Us guys need to work damn hard and be so damn lucky to get into a girl. Get the drift?
There's initially, that 2 years of JC life. Oh yeah, sometimes thats how long it takes to get the girl you want too my friends. In that 2 years, you can slack it off, but pay the consequences by the nose. You don't work hard, you don't get your girl. You see, spaces in universities are limited. Just like the limited amount of eligible girls. So competition is intense. Tough.
You can work really hard too, and off course reap the fruit of your labour, in getting your course of choice. Of course there are those weird exceptions when you work damn hard, but still don't get your uni place and those that don't work at all, but still get the course of your choice. Lucky asses..
Then there's that phase of applying, you know how it's like. Paying money to apply for a uni, just like forking out cash to go on dates with your girl, TRYING to give it a go. Most guys quite kiasu i think, apply to all 3 universities. Heng heng can get into 1 of the 3. Reminds me of how some people during valentines day, ask many girls out at once, wait to see the response, and then decide whom to go out with.
So yes, i see many people in literal pain, having to chose between universities. See la, too many girls give you a headache, each has their own good points, making it hard to choose. Then, when no uni sends you a letter, also headache. No girl likes you, you also feel the heat. SIGH.
See la, can't live with them, can't live without them. Worst part is, better choose carefully, because just one wrong choice, and you're probably screwed for the rest of your life."
No offense to girls here, just for laughs maybe...
I actually wanted to blog on some bad stuffs but my lazy self just would not allow me to do so, so I shall not do it unless the stuffs start coming back to me...I hope not C:
