I changed my computer moniter! The previous one just got its fuse blown. So, we got it changed. --------
6th March, Posting of JCs/Poly/ITEs.
I had the full intention to wake up at 12noon that day to see my postings. I was very excited the night before; I was going: 'Kyahh!' and all hyper, AT NIGHT.
Must have been those 'Rocher' I had at 9pm that night.
However, I ended up waking at 9ish the next morning, a.k.a the POSTINGS morning.
Well, I was still a little excited on my postings, and everybody elses. Early morning, wash up, everything, and then, it was the moment of truth. The excitement I had died down quite a bit, but it was still there.
And this is where I got to.
Baking and Culinary Science, Temasek Polytechnic.
My 3rd choice.
I wasn't all that excited, you know. I was looking forward to 'Intergrated Events and Project Management' at SP. Although it's only 2 weeks there last year December, I actually miss that place.
Haha, and I was all, "I'm not going SP at all." last year...
My first, rash, reaction was to appeal. I was into all the 'wedding planner' thingy since I really like weddings. Keywords being: RASH REACTION.
Now that I know my postings, I called WenYing as I promised last night. The convo went something like this:
wy: You won't believe where I got posted to. me: Where? wy: *takes a deep breath* ^P. me: ^P? ^P Poly, or ^JC? wy: Poly. ^ Poly. me: What?! wy: Told you, unbelieveble, right?
(The name has been 'covered' for privacy purposes.)
I can't believe it she got in there. High competition just to get to her other first choices.
The next person I called was Cheeks. Sadly, he didn't get into the course he wanted. He's gonna go appeal.
After that, I got SUPER nosey and I started calling everyone... haha (:
Then, the last person I called was my mom. Weird, isn't it? Usually, I'll call my mom first, WAY before anyone else. But this time, I kept the best for last.
And you know what? She went, 'If you don't want to go baking, you go for air force.'
(O.O); --> My reaction.
I know, air force is nice and all, but I have no interest in it... Then, might as well not go, right?
So, I told her I'm gonna appeal to go SP. Then she said that I shouldn't go and appeal. I was in a blur, actually. I was calling everyone and all... :P
Then, I went on ahead to contact my ex-FT, but she didn't pick up her phone. Neither did my co-FT nor my English teacher! I was left with this last choice. Yes, Art students of Sec 4E4, you know who I'm talking about.
Mr. J.
I never thought about calling him to ask type an appeal letter for me. But then, I WAS DESPERATE.
Finally, I got through! Chat with him ain't that bad; in fact, it was kinda good. It kinda calmed me down and really thought about whether if I should continue with the appeal. But he agreed to type the letter anyway (:
Not long after, I received my mom's call. Let's just say, we talked.
So, I calmed down and thought about my options. Then, I suddenly realised that, I cannot appeal; The cut off points were 13, while I only got 14.
So, I can't go into that course. Nevermind (: I can always bake wedding cakes!
After that, Eugene came over and we baked the Cheese cake for his colleague! (:

7th March, Appealing time!
I went out early in the morning with WenYing to SAJC to appeal with her. I told her to give me a morning call, or else I'll be late. We arranged to meet at 8.15am, but as usual, I was lil' late.
Sorry WenYing...
Anyway, she told me this joke in the bus:
There was this french couple. They are from france, they live in france, they wear french clothes, eat french food. However, only the husband speaks french, and the wife doesn't speak french.
So, whenever the wife wants to have chicken thigh, she points to the chicken, then points to her thigh. When she wants chicken breast, she points to the chicken, then to her breast.
One day, she wants chicken sausage. So, she brought her husband along. Why?
Don't think dirty, people! (:
I ain't gonna tell you the answer here. Or else it wouldn't be fun anymore... :P
--------
So, I've decided to not to appeal, but I miss SP, thus, I tagged along with Cheeks and Eric to SP for their appeal.
The appeal place wasn't crowded at all. I suoppse it's because those people who wanted to appeal either did it online, or went SP on the 6th.
Long story short, no 'hardcore' appeal until this appeal is over. But we didn't really return home empty handed (:
We grabbed a bite at the canteen near Macs. And surprisingly, the Auntie remembers one of the guys from CFP! Great memory auntie!!! (:
Followed by going to Carrefour @ Suntec to get ingredients for tonight's meal (:
Here's my comments on shopping for groceries with guys:
They are fast in making decisions, but they are a little disorganised.
Then again, Cheeks was really tired and couldn't really think straight. Thus, I scared him to wake him up.
To ck: You're Welcomed. :P
Eric got the Chocolate Fugde Cake for desert! It looks good, and it taste good!!! Great choice man!
We had Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream after that!!! I don't think I have to say anything about it. If you tried Ben and Jerry's Ice cream before, you know what I mean. If you haven't, GO TRY IT!
We had a full chocolate heaty go. Boy, are those two gonna get a breakout... Drink more water, men.
This is random: Go try ROYCE' chocolates. It's REALLY good!
Fast forward to ck's house:
We practically slept through out the trip to his house. Haha.
We started off with the chocolate fudge cake. It was a new thing for me: Having desert before dinner. But you know what the guys said?
"This isn't desert; this is the appetiser"
Haha. After that, I sat down and watched TV while dinner was getting prepared. (:
I'm such a spolit child.
Dinner was so-so. The marinate is bought, so technically, I didn't get to taste his cooking. Oh wells.
--------
I'm tired right now. So, good nites!
Loves from Crys.
