Hey i'm back! After traveling for 2 wks...
Guess how they celebrate my bdae in Philippines? Poured water on me and made me kiss e cake. Let me explain..cos e host told me tt it was philippino culture to kiss e cake. So i naively believed and was bending down to touch e cake gingerly when someone fr behind pushed my head..i got cream all over my cheeks!
Anw got sth to announce..i got e moh scholarship! To study speech therapy in Australia:P
Sorry aud can't go fass with u..*sheepish*
Actually i sort of knew it as early as march. Nope i wasn't cheating..
cos God gave me a vision(sth like a pic or scene) one service..i wasn't even thinking abt direction, was just worshipping God then..dun laugh..i saw a cooking pot and the Sydney opera house. Cooking pot meant tt i was going overseas, so muz learn to cook la. e opera house pointed to Australia. Was quite excited but told my family n a few church ppl only cos e news hadn't come to pass yet mah. I knew it wasn't my imagination cos it's unlike me to put such abstract thoughts together. I think the vision is v ingenious..cool...
But the doubts came after my interview. Anw i prayed tt it's not what i say, or what they think, but God determine the outcome of e interview. There r valid reasons why i think i wouldn't have got thru..
1- i only got 2As (another scholar who was awarded it too got 4As!)
2-my family dun have a history of docs or sth
3-my interview was short (compared to weiteen's-30mins)
4-they were definitely not impressed when i told them e reason why i wanted to do s.t . was to help ppl
Was quite down in e dumps after e interview. But despite me doubting, God still opened e door. Guess this 6 mths have been pretty amazing..
K, so u all can start preparing tissues for my departure!(as lt says)
Or better, come visit me!..next time..
