its official, thank God.


Hey guys!
So if you follow me on instagram or you're on my fb, you would've seen this pic already.
just in case you're wondering, this is taken off my O level results slip :-)

I dsa-ed to Raffles way before my Os. I guess I wanted to just send in my application to JCs and see if any of them would offer me a place in their school.
It was really harmless just to send in my application, I mean like its free HAHA kidding.
The thing is, I wasn't planning on applying to Raffles. I mean, Its really a school where i'll never think of going to.
In simple terms, its out of my league haha.
I decided to just try. Since i didn't have to go for any try outs, just an interview.
then, BAM I received an offer on my birthday (4th july).

Many people would think like, woahhhhh easy already la, very shiok etc.
but NO. haha
Once people knew abt my offer, they would generally pass off remarks like how i should consider withdrawing my offer, how i'll not fit in and basically reasons why i CANT and SHOULDNT go to Raffles.

I'm a person that gets easily affected by what people say sometimes. Especially if its extremely crude or negative... It's normal i'd suppose.
Well, I already planned to go through the A level route. 
So if i can get the best.. why not?
Whether its RJC or other JCs, A levels will be tough and stressful.
I'm not trying to get into the school to satisfy my pride.
I just want the best for my future. 

Honestly speaking, I'm not smart by nature. If I don't study for a test, (no i won't magically pass), I'd fail. Horribly haha.
But i'm willing to work my ass off for something I really want.

Actually RJ's offer to me, was in a way like a morale boost. 
Finally, i get recognised and rewarded for my hardwork and achievements in my sport.
This was something i held close to my heart because,
people rarely noticed my successes but mainly on my failures.

Anyway, I don't wanna go all emo-nemo hahaha.
I applied to both AJC and RJC, and by God's grace both offered me a place.
This was close to a miracle because I did terribly for Midyears.

Right now i'm just thinking about how i can snap out of my holiday mode ahhh :'(
Because school starts on 17th Jan for me, so i'm back to all the waking up early routines and all.
gotta fix my body clockkkkkkkkk

thank you for reading, have a good night x
