500-words task

I'm applying for an art school here in Singapore.I really really want to get into this school.Not because the sch is 5 minutes away from my house or because the school fee is affordable.But it's because the course offered there is of my interest.I feel my burning desire to be part of that school studying that course and excelling it.

The course that i want is a combination of arts(not just visual but also technical)and business.Perfect combination.To apply into this course i need to do a write up of my inspiration for the arts,future plans and  my encounter with arts.I have no problems writing it up.However,the problem is that i don't know how to deliver what i want to say,my ideas,my passion for the arts and my desire to start up my business for the arts in the near future. I,by no means feel burdened by this 500 words requirement.I prefer essay and the possibility of interviews than an entrance exam.

My aim to finish my application to this art school by end of January. 4 MORE DAYS yikes!

Exoxo~:)

RELEASE OF O LEVEL RESULTS 2016

I'm really excited and nervous to get back my results.

Excited because that certificate made my sufferings in 2015 worth it.(hey come on i suffered in my Chemistry classes!EVERY single week until Os ok. I need some recognition for still being alive)
Nervous because of the grades i'll be seeing.

I'm in no way going to feel regret or scared because of my results.

What is done,is done.You can't change what you get in that certificate.But you can definitely change your attitude and look on the bright side of things.It's not 'the end' when you receive bad or disappointing grades.It's just a sign of new pathways that you can decide whether to go forward,stay stagnant or reverse back(re-take).

I'm in no way looking down on people who are planning to retake.The thing about retaking is that you waste another year of life. In 365 days you can do alot of things to change your future.So you shouldn't feel constricted by your grades.

Ok back to my situation. So i have a feeling that i didn't do so well. Maybe even failed on some subjects.But i'm just being positive and focus on the future that i imagined to have. Alphabets won't weigh me down.It may damage me in some ways but hey,there's always other ways to achieve things.It may not be a favorable way but it is still a way that'll get you to your end result,so why not?YOLO!

Whatever alphabets you guys get,don't let it blind you from your success:)


Plans,plans,plans...

My conversation with my aunts/cousins/uncles/friends/teachers etc...

"What i'm doing after Os? Polytechnic(diploma) or Junior College(GCE A levels)?"

"Neither."

"What? Are you going to work first then?"

"Maybe. I've got my own plans."

"What's your plan?"

Internally sigh.

"I'm going to private diploma."

"Why private diploma?Isn't expensive? Why not poly or jc?"

"To me poly's education is really diluted,not concentrated.So i'm learning things on the surface not really in depth.I'm also gonna sacrifice 3 YEARS of my life just for a diploma which may or may not get me a job with salary of maybe just $3000 plus/minus.I'm academically inclined so jc is a no-no for me.Unless of course if i want to suffer for 2 years droning academic stuff like formulas.EW no."

"Oh...But private very expensive you know."
"How about Institute of Technical Education(ITE)? ITE also not bad now."
"Don't go private.There's not alot of god people there.There's ex-convicts,dropouts and more of that kind of people."

OMOYA! (ok exo-ls,have you guys watch exo's stages for 'Unfair'? omg kai~!)

Who are they to judge what i want to do??? They asked and i answered but they seem to not like my plans so they try to suggest other routes that are supposedly better than what i have in mind? Can they stop.It's annoying.I may not have the best laid out plans but it's my plans for MY own FUTURE. I feel really annoyed,irritated and sometimes angry when people ask what i want to do after Os and when i share it,they go all professor to me.Stop.

There may be truth in what they said and i appreciate that they just want what's best for me but it's up to me on how would i adapt to my environment.

Yes they may be bad people in the place i want to go but there's NOT a place on Earth where there's only good people.

Yes my plans are not the 'normal' poly/jc route but in the end we'll still get the same thing,knowledge.

So people in Singapore should not put the standard education route on others who prefer to choose pathways that they are confident to walk through towards their own future.
