Remember the program that i interviewed for from about 3 months ago? The interview which i felt could have been successful except that my GPA might have affected my potential position in the program? I have fretted over this for so long.
Anyways, the results were supposed to come out on the 31 March 2012. I was in Vietnam for the SIP and was only coming back to Singapore on that date 10++PM so i didn't want to wreck my mood on the last day of the wonderful trip so decided not to look into my email until i get back home. Just one guy from my group for the SIP was also trying to get into the program. He (Charles) and i would always worry about what the results might be. SO we agreed with each other that when we got our results, we must call each other. If i didn't get in, must comfort me. If he didn't get in, must ignore him. If both of us got in, must celebrate together. Fastforward to 1st April and i still did not get any results, my good friend too.
For the next few days we got more and more worried at the fact that they might have rejected us so as a last resort, i asked Charles... "Do you wanna email and ask them whether they have sent the results out already?" (Cause i asked my fav teacher in SP, Chloe, about it and she said to try emailing them) Charles said yes and try to send together at 12 noon the next day so we did. But the day after, No Reply. We also did not have any Plan B so we had no choice but to wait...
Fastforward to this afternoon, approx 11.57AM while i was in school about to start a meeting for a project. I saw that i had a missed call and message. Saw that it was from Charles and immediately looked at the message, SPOT results are out, pls check your iChat! (iChat is a school Email)
I immediately gasped and JUMPED from my seat, surprising my group members a little and rushed to get my friend's laptop to check. It was a little scary, i was expecting the WORST. Covering my eyes time to time while waiting to open my email account to look into my inbox. Finally, i got into my inbox and my eyes zoomed in on the first word. In my mind, i thought either it's Congrats or Sorry, Congrats or Sorry, Congrats or Sorry. I saw.....
Congratulations! and Welcome to the family.... then everything else was a blur because i was filled with so much joy and i was literally a tad high! I took my phone and immediately punched the numbers to call Charles. He got in too!!!! and he also said that he got rashes from swimming yesterday... Way to go man... He's suffering on the day he should be jumping for joy.
WOO HOO!!!!! We both got in!!!! i get to see and keep a good friend from the Vietnam trip again!
I LOVE 2012!!!!
From a wonderful Vietnam Trip to great GPA results to fantastic new friends made and to this successful slot in the program! <3
THINGS ARE FINALLY LOOKING UP!
