Alevels results are outtt. The anxious waiting is over. OMG, imagine waiting for it for 3 months. It almost felt like I had never written a major examination in the first place! Haixx..anyway, its over.
And now I'm down doing uni applications. Where? Which course? Many questions. But oh wells, whether I will get in is an entirely different matter as the cut offs vary and apparently from several friends whom I have spoken to..the 0th percentile can differ a lot from the 10th percentile grades reflected on the websites. No, I am not gonna apply to NUS Law or Medicine. I am more realistic than that :D
Maybe I will start on Wednesday. I shall jus fill in the choices. After a good chat with the parents, I kinda have an idea of which courses to apply to. And I am still clueless on whether I should continue with UK apps..I mean come on! It's late app already! I probably have to have an impeccable Personal Statement..let alone the impeccable grades..to even stand a chance of getting in! But oh wells, we will see. UCAS still says that 30 June is the deadline. It really depends on the quality of the personal statement I can churn out and luck. oh lady luck. Please be good to me. Its surprising how some people whom you expected to easily ace Alevels didn't do as well as expected. Scary.
I shall jus apply..and pray to God fervently that everything will be okay. It has to. I mean even if I don't get my first choice..hopefully I wouldn't be forced to do something I am totally not interested in.
And as for those who didn't meet expectations..don't let some certificate determine who you are for the rest of your life. There is so much more in life yet to come..and this is jus a small part of what is to be. There are always other paths for you. Don't EVER give up :D
I guess thats something I should tell myself too..cause MATH..totally got messed up for the Alevels. Oh wells. I am happy with the rest at least. But no point crying over spilt milk. Maybe I should have mugged more..studied harder..whatever. Maybe I should have done the tutorials more promptly and gone for more consultations. But screw it. It's over. And all I can and should be doing now is to look forward and move on. There's no other way..whether I like it or not. Regardless, I am proud of those who got Straight As and can immediately get into the course of their choice. To the rest..all we can do is wait and hope that everything will be all right and we will still get what we want.
I really hope I do.
Okay, off now.
Arsenal is back tonight.
