Ok so NUS has rejected my appeal. Not that it matters anymore. To be honest I'm quite glad where I am now, and I've already made preparations for it. The release of the results was nothing more than a form of release, and I mean it in a good way. Now its time to relax for about 6 more months before I make my next move. And 6 months is a lot of time to do the things I want to do before uni. (Now that unit life is slacky =P)
I suppose a certain Daughtry song kinda sums it up. Although it sounds like its written towards a certain person (looking at the forums this song kinda reminds people of their ex bfs or gfs lol). Its pretty applicable to my situation.
Well I never saw it coming,
Shoulda started running a long long time ago
And I'd never thought I'd doubt you
I'm better off without you
More than you more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure
I guess its really over
I'm finally getting better
I'm picking up the pieces
Spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together
Cause the days I thought I'd never get through
I got over you
So this is the last time you guys will ever see the medicine tag on this blog. Sayonara!

I'm richer by $100! All thanks to achieving a silver at ippt on thursday. Never thought I'd reach it that easily. All my stations except 2.4 were gold standard. Finally reached 10 pull ups, had 247 for broad jump, 9.8 for shuttle run, and 53 for situps, beating the company record! =) My name's gonna be up on the notice board! 2.4 was roughly around 11 mins. Gotta train, gotta train.
Passing SOP test with 97% was the second accomplishment for this week. It ensured that I wouldn't get confined over the weekend and got to play pool with the guys.
Speaking of pool I'm getting pretty good at hitting easy shots. And my placement is getting really good. In the matches I played I've been hitting 3, 4 balls in a row. Still, I'm pretty weak in potting the ball in the centre hole, and doing long range shots. Gotta practise! My form still tends to taper off near the end of pool sessions.

To sum it up, this week I've learnt something. It isn't new, but it kinda resurfaced over the week.
I was reminded that God's will for us is truly great. Its strange how the standards we want always seem to be better than His in our own eyes. But in the end, it is His will that gives the best possible outcome. And for that I put my utter trust in Him and Him alone.
A few weeks/months ago I would've said that medicine would be the best way to utilise my talents, abilities and personality. I believe most people would say so as well. But weighing everything and putting it in perspective, it would've closed many doors that I still want open. Examples: 8 Sig Bn evangelism, learning jap, drving, sign language, doing piano dip, getting a taste of having a job, finally having free time to do worships/teachings.
Truly, God knows what is best.
