ROAD TO UNIVERSITY

Gah, I skipped a month of blogging again! haha. Well, its time to update all the new things that happened to me. :)

Went to brother's convocation during mid-July and yeah it was fun! :D We even went to Batman Castle! :)

Yup, That's me sitting in front of Batman Castle!
And this is the place where my brother lives (The houses are so small!)
 My family were really proud of my brother because he got a first class honours for his master of Electrical and Electronic Engineering. In addition to that, he received an university award and also some other prize. I'm also very proud to have a smart brother. HEHE. 

After my trip to UK, I went Singapore for ten days. May and Samson(cousins) came to Singapore on the same day. It was my first time meeting Samson in person. It was also many other cousins' first time meeting him, as he was always in America and had trouble coming back to Singapore. Spent my ten days meaningfully in Singapore, stayed with my sister the whole time. My parents also went down to meet May and Samson for a few days. 

We came back on the 10 August(sat) because I had to collect my A level results on the 15 August! Was so nervous before I collect my results. However, praise the Lord that I managed to meet and exceed the conditional offer from Cardiff University. My result is AAB, B for law. D; Was kinda disappointed that I couldn't get an A for law, but still praise the Lord for my results. 

Now its 23 days till I leave for the UK. Going for my visa appointment tomorrow! Hopefully everything can turn out smoothly. Been travelling a lot these days, might be going to Taiwan with my momma early September too!! I'm more excited to go Taiwan even though I've already been there twice. HAHA. But I really love the place <3 

Will remember to update my blog more frequently when I'm in the UK :) (At least I'll try to...)

OFFICIALLY NINETEEN

I'm officially nineteen today. Gah, feel so old right now. HAHA!

Had a birthday party at my place yesterday night! Had lots of fun with my college friends and my best friends :) Got surprises and lots of present :)

But surprisingly, I'm less excited about my birthday this year as compared to past years. I'm happy, but I feels a little bit unrealistic? HAHA.

My room was filled w 'post it's!

I accompanied my best friends most of the time yesterday. Was kind of afraid that my college friends will feel left off. D; Hope they had fun..

My beloved friends, the 1203s :)


But it was nice having my friends around yesterday night! :) Some stayed over my place and we played cards and talked at night! haha. 

This is the end of my college life and I would say that I have really enjoyed it a lot though it was only a year and a half. Got to know so many nice people and had lots of good memories together. :)

Hopefully my university life would be as exciting :) hehe. Got all five offers from the five universities i applied for through UCAS! WOOHOO Thank God!!! <3 The universities I applied for are Birmingham, Leicester, Sheffield, Reading and Cardiff :) Planning to put Cardiff as 1st choice and Reading 2nd. Hopefully my results are okay.... Have to pray hard. hehe
Going to UK in another two weeks for my brother's convocation! hehe :) Audrey and her friends are coming from Singapore to stay at my place tomorrow till Friday! :) Will have to bring them around to play and shop hehehehe. Hope I get to spend my time wisely during my break! :)

STRESS

I'm not sure how I should put this. But Edexcel have turned me into a panda. More like a NIGHT cat. My studying times are in the midnight and I sleep in the day. I'm adjusting myself to a totally different time zone. My biology clock is in a mess. But I focus better in the night, what to do?
Panda says Hi! :)

Its only a few more days till my exams, its now or never! I keep telling myself this. I'm working to get into UK universities now. And my forecast results can't even meet those requirements! So I tell myself if I want to get into UK universities, I have to give my best shot during my last few papers and leave the rest to the Lord. 

I set up a goal everyday. The amount of work I have to complete. For example, 6 law essays, 1 set of accounting paper and 3 sets of C3(Mathematics). I have to finish all these before I sleep. So I put myself into deep stress now. No one to talk to about this. Cause I know everyone is studying as well. I don't want them to feel that I'm boasting. And this is something I promised myself and God to complete everyday. I HAVE to do it, you see.

I have my IELTS writing test tomorrow. Suppose to work on the exercises but at the same time I have to finish my 'workload' for today. I guess I won't be able to get enough sleep then. D;

So stress that even my sweets wouldn't help now. Haven't been this hardworking ever since form 1 I suppose. Never pushed myself till this far before. I listen to soft and soothing music to calm myself down. Can't wait for my exams to end. TT I want to try my best and have no regrets. 

Dear Lord, please give me strength to get through these times. I would like to pray for a healthy body as well, that I can have a healthy body until my exams is over. And if You intend for me to get into UK universities, please show me Your directions Lord. I pray for all this, in Jesus name I pray, Amen.
