Am I Crazy or WHAT!

I feel life is getting boring, or should I say, life is not hectic enough? Just joking.

Over the weekends, I made up my mind. I was still wavering whether to take or not to. There's no pay increment, workload won't be reduced, no guaranteed promotion, MORE tiring days and giving up my Korean lessons. My decision was made because Aline said,"Just take it as an interest."

I am applying for my part-time Masters. July 2010 Intake. Won't be explicit here.

On Friday, I sent in my online application. Printed out the form and let my BIG BOSS to endorse. It was quite a funny experience. She actually doesn't know her staff. She asked if I have a baby, probably worried I cannot cope and will sacrifice my work.

"NO, I'm not married..."

"OH, then you have a boyfriend right?"

"NO..."

"OOOH, but will have right?!"

"Erm..."

I don't even know if she knows my name. After that, I just continued to say that my work is still priority. Oh well......

Photocopied all my transcripts and certificates. Hopefully, I will get exemption for at least one module and graduate within 2.5 years. And filled up a form to state my reason for my application. Put them all in order, stick my photo, and in the envelope they went.

The white envelope sat on my chair for 2 days. I finally posted it out today after work. Well, it now depends if they want to accept me or not. I don't really meet one of the criteria. See how fate is. Will know the results in April/May.

So Carey, I'm not going Australia to join you. I can't give up my salary. I don't want to get into a debt. I still want to eat good food - salmon sashimi, wedges, dim sum, la mian! I still want to buy nice dresses, shoes and jewellery. I still want to buy Agnes B, Longchamp, Gucci, Prada, LV bags and wallets. I still want to take the aeroplane to go for my yearly holidays - Japan, Korea, Germany, Europe... I still want to take my Grade 8 violin exam.

I'll just postphone the plan to migrate there. ^^

Counting Days

My aunt is on morphine. She is so weak that her used-to-be strong and loud voice is so feeble now. She is in pain. I just hope she will persevere till after CNY.

Huh...?!

My dad just stepped into my room and said, "Shall we move back to the old house? It's more windy there."

I gave him a "HUH?!?" look.

Was he serious? It meant packing my stuff all over again!
