YAY!



After my post last night... I got an offer from CityU. How amazing is that!? I am so excited! Now I want to stop studying for my exams.. hahaha but I know I shouldn't because I committed to it so I have to finish it.

Encouraging words for myself

With such good technologies these days, I don't even have to write my journals anymore. But this is a more convenient way for me to privately express my thoughts anywhere and anytime.

Well I haven't been in a great mood lately... mainly due to school and wedding planning stress. I was mad at myself for not studying harder throughout the year... I took a year off from work so I can have more time to study...Instead I just kinda did nothing for a year. Now I am procrastinating AGAIN.... Then comes the wedding -- one of the most important events that can happen in a girl's life. Well...Sunny decides to get engaged to his gf of 6 months and then proceed to get married before us. He booked his venue 3 days after his engagement... (record breaking?) Anyway... Alan and I are scrambling to look for our venue... which I recently learned that our number of tables have been cut because since Sunny is getting married... Alan and my wedding aren't important anymore? I don't know.... I feel shafted... nevertheless... we really need to start planning our wedding. To top it off... Alan pissed me off when he accidentally told me that he was going to go skydiving in Thailand... which he decided against the need to tell me. ARGH...then I started hating my engagement ring because I fell in love with a more gorgeous one.. and hating myself for hating my ring...

Well... I have been getting signs that I should be grateful for what I have in my life. I shouldn't be complaining about school when there are so many people who can't afford a proper education... I should be grateful that I found the love of my life who is willing to spend the rest of his life with me... I should be grateful that I even have a hotel wedding and I should be grateful that I have lots of friends and family who will attend. The wedding ceremony is just one day out of the rest of our amazing lives together.... I won't let this one day ruin the relationship that I have built with Alan for 10 years...



Now that I have a more optimistic outlook on life... I am already feeling much better as I am typing this... I hope I will constantly remind myself to give thanks with a grateful heart.

Lately... I have been having an urge to get close to God again... but I feel like I need to talk to somebody to have some of my doubts and issues addressed first. Maybe it's good that Alan and I will start going to church.

I am still waiting on the news from CityU.... what I am going to do if I don't get in again this year.... Should I continue on my LLB route or start work and hopefully try to apply for school again.

Dilemma in life....
