NS Life
Sunday, April 19, 2009
well, i never hated going to a place so much.
in the past, when the going gets tough, at least there were friends around. there were still reasons to make me go to school, and have fun there. looking back, schooling life (yes, even jc life) really isn't that bad.
the camp that i'm going to now...well, the mono-intakers are fine, really. simple people, easy to get along. but not the jc people. some of those in my temporary platoon, especially. i don't see why they enjoy badmouthing and backstabbing people so much. it makes everyone's stay there unbearable.
i guess it's a fortunate thing that my bunk mates ain't doing anything to it. we don't have many weeks there left; all of us are waiting for our new vocations. I'm worried only because our life in the remaining weeks won't be as good, and that the resurfacing of my old problems may prove too much for me to handle.
so much for ns life. a group of top scorers doing nothing but washing and cleaning everyday.
then again, i learned alot. i guess office politics are inevitable, and it's always the smartest that come up with all this shit. so much for elitism, so much for meritocracy. why can't people just learn to work with each other, and benefit from it? i guess i'm just too naive.
back to university admissions.
ntu has accepted me, i went for nus law interview and am going for the biz scholarship one. still haven't heard from smu after the interview. guess i'm going to call to check on the verification of results, since some people already got accepted. and i don't see why i can't. maybe double degree takes longer? i don't know.
i'm anxious, and rightfully so. i really want to get into SMU, but i'm not sure if i should do law. well, i may not get accepted...everything is in a fluster. and i hope things will be right eventually.
it's a few hours to book in, really have no idea how to survive there. hope no major conflicts occur.
