Apparently, people who put all C's in the mass comm mcq test got in. People who give attitude to the professors got in. People with results not much better than mine got in.

Mind you, i'm talking about the same person.

There is no justice in this world. I want to stab myself in the knee.

life is one hell of an irony.

for interviews that i spent days preparing for, printing out pages and pages of my portfolio, giving mildly intellectual comments that made the profs look suitably impressed - i didn't get in.

for interviews that i went in completely bo chap, forgetting my portfolio, telling them that this wasn't my first choice, talking about audrey hepburn, complaining about the damn ex cab ride there, and worst of all, made the prof reel in shock when i told him bluntly that my only A was a fluke - i got in.

my letters finally arrived from nus and ntu, but unfortunately, both courses are not what i want and i'm feeling even more lost than i felt in my previous letter-less state.

I'm still deciding if i should go for tmr's architecture/industrial design interview at nus. =(

I have zero interest in it.
On one hand, considering i haven't received ANY bloody letters so far, i feel like being kiasu and grabbing whatever opportunity i can to get into the uni. I can always transfer courses, right?
On the OTHER hand, considering WHAT the test involves i.e. building some flimsy contraption out of construction paper, i don't want to go there and watch my model fall apart while i walk to the front to present it. I don't know what they're thinking, can't they just do a good old-fashioned interview and stop there?
AND. You know how nus tries to push people out of those insanely popular courses by giving you your 2nd choice. What if I get pushed out of fass?!
But if i just don't go, what if it reflects badly on me and they just decide to reject me in every course?

Why the hell did i even put that as one of my choices anyway?!

My hopes dwindle as the days pass without a trace of a letter in my postbox.
