Today's been a bittersweet day. I knew beforehand that I was going to learn of Berkeley's decision today. But as I was checking my online account at all e uni I applied to, I realised Cornell and Carnegie Mellon had posted their decisions too. I wasn't mentally prepared to know e decision from 3 schools! One is bad enough. Well, there were good news, bad news. Of course, I'm disappointed at being rejected, though I had tried to brace myself for the worst. I actually got into the only school in which I didn't apply for industrial engr/operations research (incidentally, I'm planning to apply for that major - something to do with Maths - if I go to NUS). I'm just confused at the moment. I really don't know where God wants me to go. I guess I just have to sit down one of these days and seriously think about my future. Oh well..not exactly fond of doing that.

Anyway, this past week, I've sort of had exams for my Chinese course. Exams were ok; the teachers all think we should be ok. It's the last week for the first term. Gonna have a three-week break until the next term starts. I still don't know what I'm going to do yet. Most likely I'll take a break or give a little bit of tuition. I still have to pack my JC stuff. Gosh, I'm just sick of seeing all those files under my table. And obviously, I'll have to settle those uni stuff. Good thing is, my bro will be coming back from Perth this month, so I'll have company should I decide to stay at home the whole day haha.

I've had lunch with my Chinese class people these 2 days. Had lunch with 4 others at Singapore Cricket Club yesterday (someone's a member there). Gosh..the lunch was fabulous! The food's just so nice (they had Indo, Chinese, Western food) and the price is quite reasonable too! Today, it was lunch with all the people in my class with a few of the teachers at a Korean restaurant. I went to the place with 2 other Indonesians, and we had a comical time trying to get to the place. I think we must have looked like tourists haha. We got lost along the way, so we were late and had to sit at right at the corner of the table. Of course, with this arrangement, we couldn't really talk with the others, so we just had our own little conversation in Indonesian, which was quite fun :). I think my Indonesian (which was getting awkward) is actually improving haha. Food is good too, but I think I prefer yesterday's one. Most of us are going to continue with next term. But I'm really going to miss those that have to go back to their own countries. They are such nice people!

I've been watching American Idol at the earlier time slots this week. I think it's cool to watch the show without all those commercials! You'd then realise that the show actually moves at a fast pace. Especially the result show, in which normally you'd have to wait for all those commercials before hearing a bit of the results, and then going back to commercials again. Found it irritating really. And the performance show was only like 40 minutes! And OC finally came back yesterday. I think Seth's more cute than ever haha. But I don't like Ryan's new look.

I've been sleeping really late these past 2 days, and setting personal records along the way. Wednesday night, I was trying to do some last-minute studying and ended up sleeping at 3.30. And yesterday was worse; slept at 5am! I don't know what I was doing really. I think I was trying to edit my USP essay, but ended up staring blankly at the computer screen most of the time. I finished it up and managed to submit it this morning though, so that's good news. Sigh, really feel like a zombie now. Sleep early viv!
