haiz.

my dream of doing med in cambridge is slowly fading away to the back of my mind, to be packed all over with cobwebs, and stored lovingly in the recesses and depths of my cranial folds... just as my dream of studying anything in us did...
i really want to.
but its totally unpractical to.
for the 6yr course in uk (anywhere, not necessarily cam), my poor parents have to fork out about half a million bucks. imagine what else they can get with that money if they dunt send their snooty kid to the uk. in s'pore, nus, (assumng i manage to get in somehow..), all they'd have to pay is about 80k. 80k vs 500k, and u get the mbbs degree just the same. not to mention all the other benefits studying med local, like all the contacts u'll establish, and a more thorough understanding of med in the local context. haiz.

been nursing dreams of studying overseas since like forever.. and now that i'm like almost there... its so close, i could really actually go if i really wanted to... i realise that my ambition doesnt quite correlate with this dream in reality.
haiz. the way it looks, i'll be stuck here in sunny singapore, with the chicken rice, curry chicken and whatnot, right with my darling parents and granny, for the next 6yrs.
HAIZ.

k larh, its not so bad larh. sheesh.
as a bribe to make me stay, my parents offered to let me stay in my own apartment.

and i have a pimple on the worst possible spot ever. right in the centre of my nose. it popped out inadvertantly just before math yesterday. SO WEIRD! yuckyuckyuck.
cortisol levels please come down. pleasepleaseplease? or i'm going to get rid of you anyway in 3weeks time..
