SundayIt's ching ming last Sunday. So as usual, every year, my Dad's side relative will all gather together at my uncle's shop located in Jurong, where my late grandma and grandpa used to live when they were still around. That's the usual meeting point you see, haha, just like meeting your friends in interchange before you go Orchard every Saturday (or Sunday, or whatever, does it really matter?). After that, carry some stuffs to the van, and off we go, to the cemetery.
Anyway, since my grandma passed away in 1998, we hardly meet up and stuff. Not even Chinese New Years. So Ching Ming is like a yearly reunion or something. Almost most of my cousins are already married. There seems to be so many new members around (im referring to their kids if you dont get what i mean). Im actually the youngest in my generation, so that probably why most of my cousins are married as they are like already in their 30's and some even 40's.
Reached home at about 7pm, took a shower, and went out with ZK and Kim. We went to orchard, had a rather late dinner in Pizzahut, and chilled out in Starbucks. Thanks Din for the free drinks and food, really appreciate it :)
On Monday, woke up and checked my NYP DAE result online. As expected, unsuccessful again. That sort of affected my mood for the whole day. But still, i went to woodland stadium with Kim and Nadia for work outs. In the gym, there's a couple of occasions where i stood in one conner, staring at few of the equipments, and wondered "how the hell do they works?". Guess im a gym noob.
We then headed to CWP and had our lunch. After that i went back to school(yes, riverside) to look for Mr Job, Mrs Lee and Miss Yeo(Angie Tan), asking them if they are able to write a recommendation letter for me. They immediately agreed. Miss Yeo even helped me to contact one of him NYP friend, who i believe to be a lecturer in there. So during Monday, if you saw a guy wearing a cap, roaming around in Riverside - Yes, that's me.
On Tues, again, i went back to Riverside in the morning to collect my recommendation letters, My cert, and my testi. I then headed to RP. On the way, i met Yvonne, who justed came out from RP. She got the RP DAE, and was there to finish some enrollment stuffs. SHe was kind enough to follow me all the way back into RP. So i went looking for someone to speak to, and unsurprisingly, i was told the same old things again. Then i headed to NYP with Long accompanying me despite him having plans later the day. We roamed around NYP like a lost soul. In the end, i was told to write a letter and send to them instead if i would like to appeal for any of the courses.
After that, i went back to Causeway, meet up with choonmin, ky - the usual gang, and hang around in cwp.
So, thanks miss yeo, mrs lee, mr job, for the time and effort you've putted in to write a recommendation letter for me, Yvonne for accompanying me to RP, and Long for accompanying me to NYP. I really appreciate it :)
