I can't talk.

Congrats to myself for losing my voice for the dunno-how-many times.
And I do mean lost-my-voice lost my voice.
Totally no voice.
Can't talk.

Great. I'm a chatter box and now I can't talk. Just great.

Its just downright irritating ok.

To think I was planning to talk to my Dad today cos he's like finally at home on Sunday and not at work. Which is super rare. Duh.

Wanted to ask him for allowance cos I desperately need to pay my phone bill and premium, and wanna talk to him about the University issues cos I don't wanna drag it anymore.

Speaking of which, I vow to settle my University issues by May. Most probably results will be out this month and application results will be out next month. So May is then the month for me to go do all the other necessary applications and arrangements.

Ok. I'm actually rather perplex now. Should I sacrifice 2 years for the sake of experience or should I not sacrifice for the sake of saving money?
Had this dilemma bcos of what Jim See said.
"When it comes to education, there's no compromising."

Think I better explain myself. The reason why JCU Singapore takes only 4 years to get Masters is bcos they cut out summer holidays. It's 4 months of holiday and without it, there will be 3 semesters a year, compared to the usual 2 semesters a year.

But I really really really wanna go over.
Ok. It's not like I've been selected already but one gotta plan first! And I'm a freaking planner! I plan everything! Ok. Back. My plan is that if I go over, I'll go for internship during the summer holidays to earn some doughs and to accumulate working experience. Most probably in the campus clinic or some nearby ones. If I do that, I'll have 2 years' hands-on experience to add to my resume along with my certification. But that will take 6 years! Argh.

One of the reason why I so desperately wanna go overseas is bcos I wanna get away from my family. I had enough of all the quarrels and bickers. By going away, I can learn to be independent and stop being so spoil, and hopefully, I'll learn to appreciate and love them even more.
"Absence makes the heart fonder" my friends.

So that's just it.

Anyway, most probably I've been boring the poops outta all of ya recently by ranting non-stop on these academic issues but they're really the main and only issues on my pea brain these days. So bear with me. Hee.

Now I'll rant about what I did yesterday.
Went to all those Universities fairs again and from there concluded not to consider US or UK at all cos they need SATs. After that went shopping with Aunt Joyce & Aunt Elaine. Can you imagine staying at Wisma from 3pm to 10pm? We practically went into every stores at every level! Had dinner there too, at Ding Tai Feng. It's something like Crystal Jade and its not bad. Oh, and baby TingYi is still as cute as ever!

My goodness. What a long post. But bear with me. I can't talk you see. So I must write all I can. Ok. Feeling sucky again. Gotta go rest again. I've been lying down the whole of today, except when I sit up straight to eat and get up to go toilet. Otherwise, I'm lying down. That's how sick I am alright.

Didn't expect my sore throat from yesterday to turn into this nonsense. Oh, and you know what? I was having hiccups the whole of yesterday! It only stops when I'm having dinner and drinking my rambutan freeze. The moment I finish my drink, it started. The moment I finished my dinner and stood up to leave, it started! What is this?!
Up till now, the after effect of the-so-much-hiccups-from-yesterday is still there. Damn!

I hate this lumpy feeling in my throat.

Ok. Bye.

All about

Jack (or is it Jane?) of all trades,

but Master of none.
(trying to!)

This is my paradise, where I indulge my senses grandiloquently.

A collective effort to keep family & friends updated, and for random strangers to pop by.

I wanted to put a HUGE picture of myself in this space, but being the technologically challenged person that I am, I can't figure out the mojo of it.

So I guess I'll just have to make do with scattering loads of random self-shots all over the blog!
