Running Lines

I'm not here to impress. I write to clear my mind and as such, my train of thoughts might be either brilliant or junk.

okay. so i got my olevel results yesterday. i was hoping my name would be called to go up on stage but i guess that would be too good to be true. hahas. i'm not sad. but i'm not happy either.
mann it sucks to be stuck between the two. i was waiting for this giant outburst of joy to surface and i would be over the moon, jumping for joy. but there was no feeling. i don't remember feeling elated or exuberant or estatic when i saw my L1R5= 09. hmmm... i wonder why that is.
but one feeling was obvious. EXTREME RELIEF
maybe i didnt get my ideal results but i didn't fall far.
i'm not going to act like a greedy bastard and complain about getting nine. (like one arrogant bugger that i happen to know ._.)
i know many would want to replace theirs with a nine and i feel fortunate and thankful to god.
i'm not sad.
but i'm not happy either.

i'm sitting in front of my lappy, with the JAE booklet opened on my laps and i'm searching for open houses that i might consider going to. Ma just left for work. i wish she'd stay home and accompany me to Nanyang JC's open house later. Ma said ," Kan Mak kerja. Kau mesti blajar tok jadi independent. Kan tahon ni dah 17." bleagh. i hate this part; Ma totally trusts me with whatever decision i chose and the thing is, i don't trust myself. i wish it was like in the PSLE days whereby all the sec sch choices were made by my mum. i wish life could be that simple. but alas, it's not and i have to list down my JC choices on my own. Alone. (Gaaaah!)

So here are the eligible JCs.

1.Anderson
2.Anglo Chinese
3.Anglo-Chinese(independent)
4.Catholic
5.Hwa Chong
6.Innova
7.Jurong
8.Meridian
9.Nanyang
10.National
11.Pioneer
12.Raffles
13.Serangoon
14.St Andrews'
15.Tampines
16.Victoria
17.Yishun
18.Temasek

So the important factors are a) Distance =because i don't want to waste my effing time in jam-packed public transports. that would be hugely irritating and i'm very sure would add unnecessary stress in my would-be-stressful life.
b) School's Standard= well, since my results are not that bad, i do not see the reason why i should go to a bo-chap school. i don't want prestige like Hwa Chong or Raffles but some standard is still important.

aite. due to distance, i am left with these options
1. Anderson
2. Innova
3. Jurong
4. Nanyang
5. Pioneer
6. Raffles
7. Catholic
8. Yishun

alah. fuck sia. i got 12 options to fill out. okay i'll deal with that later. now on to factor two. according to last years cut off points, the ranking would be

1st: Raffles (i gt 5, cut off 3. oh crap. and Ma says the sch fees too expensive)
2nd: Anderson (considering it but what i heard is that this sch is very study-study-study. bleagh)
3rd: Nanyang and Catholic ( Ny, checking this one out later at open hse. Catholic, i dnt like schs that are too pro-religion)
4th: Jurong (very old campus. nt one of my top but will consider to be in my list)
5th: Pioneer (again, will be in my list but nt the top)
6th: Innova and Yishun wah, this one the cut off points seriously bad compared to others.)
______________________________________________________________

nebermind. today Nanyang open house. Tomorrow anderson open house. i don't mind being in either. why must i list 12 options? it's giving me a headache.

need to shower. need to dress. need to go and get myself bothered about Nanyang. See ya.
wish you all out there all the best with your decision making. may god show you the path. hahas
