This post came a little later than it should. Today is the sixth day (almost one week?) that I am back at home, having just waved good-bye to Singapore. I did not feel particularly happy about it because I thought I could have stayed longer there, maybe for couple or more years? Well, I just have to submit to fate. Whatever comes will definitely come, all I need to do is just to prepare myself for it.
God, everyone in the family except me forgot Mom’s birthday! I almost scolded Dad on the phone after he quickly managed to make reservation for a table in a restaurant. I scolded all my sisters as well. My eldest sis asked my Dad on the phone, it turned out to be hilarious:
Please note that the conversation was in Teochew dialect and has been carefully translated.
Sis: Dad, do you know what day is today?
Dad: Today is pretty good day, aye, according to the calendar, it’s a great day to move. (My dad is really superstitious and believes in the Chinese calender, so everything that needs to be done will have to seek his calendar’s approval. Apparently, his mind is preoccupied by my young sis’ moving out ritual).
Sis: DAD! It’s Mom’s birthday!
Dad: OH! OK OK! I’ll make reservation now.
LOL.
Anyway, I just made payment to ACER to register for ISAT, which will be held on the 20th of May in Jakarta. I chose not to take the one in Singapore (23rd on the same month) because I need to catch the deadline of Monash University’s application deadline.
And now that somebody has shed some light regarding UK’s universities, I think I am going to try out UK as well but I will need to read up more on that.
Mom’s nagging me to bathe and take my medicine already. I have a bad feeling that I will strike the Dengue lottery again. LOL
So, mood of the day says, “Lottery!”
