talk about a rollercoaster sem anyways. Thankfully, my dad's recovering real well now. the past 2 months was spent at home recuperating, and its really nice to see how he's gone on to value the nice little things in life and learnt how to treat mom with abit more care and love than before. *he's used to be the type who doesn't give flowers or even dare to go do romantic stuff...i still remember buying flowers and giving mom saying its dad who asked me to do it!*
so yeap, tomorrow also marks the day he goes back to the office. i've been driving around in his car for these 2 months, and it was a really fun time having wings of my own and being able to go home whenever i want, or drive whoever i want back home. in a sense..it was pretty much a taste of what life would really be outside if we were to leave that cocoon of safety and protection our parents often built for us, since it seems as a symbolic step into mingling in between with adults, as an adult. but hey, tomorrow's back to riding the bus to and fro again! i'll miss the car!
clubwise, things are starting to heat up, with fop coming in real soon. not forgetting we just had open house finish up really nicely, and both of my cousins looking into coming engineering the next year, it'll be a interesting development for the next half year before the next big thing..
and yes, i got into NOC! although they did say its a provisional acceptance, at the very least i know i managed to impress and persuade the interviewers *hilariously the same prof as last time* into letting me the opportunity to explore new horizons in the US! yeap, i'll be gone from next Jan onwards for a year, to study at UPenn and work at BioValley! I'm really looking forward to it though...its definitely going to be the adventure i've always looked forward to, living overseas and striking it out on my own. and of course, please come and visit/tour around the US with me, if you're still reading! =]
so...this sem has been full of new things popping up incessantly, good stuff and bad stuff...but in the end i'm just hoping i can end this semester with a smile on my face, knowing that what i've did so far hasn't been for naught..in terms of academics, club, and of course, the remnants of my social life.
anyways, things don't look so gloomy and depressing these few weeks..and i'm finally mugging effectively again! =]
