Finally got down to blog again... Boy, was it helluva ride in the past week! After having my faith edified (read: previous post), I will have to start by giving my utmost, heartfelt thanks to God for the 10 weeks of Industrial Attachment so far!! Not only has He blessed me with great buddies, helpful colleagues and a wonderful supervisor, I have managed to learn many valuable lessons not available in the lecture theatre near you! Praying for another rockin' 12 weeks!!!
That, my friend, is just the appetizer. Now, for the main course... Still reeling with a tinge of disappointment after learning I was not selected for INSTEP (INternational Student Exchange Programme), I was contemplating whether to try for the 2nd round in October over the weekend. If God is a magician, He sure is a super fine one!! Because, out of the blue, what seemed like a normal email on mundane monday turned out to sweep my off my seat. Although the subject title was about GIP (Global Immersion Programme), I was too tired to even anticipate with bated breath or even pray. Whilst opening the email, the words were a blur until "Congratulations" sunk into my mind - I got selected to study at Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, USA for one semester!!! Despite the euphoria, I was transported back to the real world when I started to think about leaving behind my family, friends, commitments and ultimately a comfort zone! Thank God, fears were allayed as I trust my God-given siblings to take care of my parents, friends who knew about it encouraged me and this is in fact a once in a lifetime opportunity! Stay tune for more updates as I prepare for the trip...
VJ Titanium will bring on this interesting emo song from a relatively unknown band, Senses Fail. Despite being an emo tune, take note of the morbid lyrics and the retro video! This song got stuck in my head for weeks...
Senses Fail - Buried a Lie
Food glorious food! Superb stringray at Fengshan Blk85, nice jap cusine at Kuriya(courtesy of Weiji!), Pizza Hut... Fat glorious fat?? I hope not... Parents went away on vacation across Causeway, so I took care of the house and did the housework today! A lot of preparation work for GIP...
What happened on Tuesday and Wednesday? I was abducted by sexy blonde aliens!! Nah... hehe
