ammends
ok, first i wanna say how sorry i am for like going all BLURGH without being the slightest bit rational. i truly apologise for the following things:
1. if i've offended anyone.
2. for sounding like i'm better than the rest of the world. (i found out a few days ago that most people who got into medicine have like 99.9. so i guess, i've no complaints)
3. and for being a total pain in the butt.
well, i'm sorry i went overboard. However, i do have good news :). I GOT INTO MEDICINE at Monash Uni, Clayton!!! yay! Praise God! Honestly, it's all His goodness and grace and not mine. You guys couldn't believe the timing. When I got the offer for pharmacy, my mum, seeing I was so dejected, suggested that I sent an e-mail requesting to be put on the waiting list for second offers. She helped me phrase my words.
After procrastinating for a long time, I finally decided to accept the Pharmacy offer. Afterall, it's His will be done, not mine. That morning itself on the 24th of Jan, I went to the bank with my parents to TT the money. After that, I went to my dad's office to fax the acceptance form over. Luckily, I decided to check my e-mail and the country level assessment before sending. It was then that I saw the e-mail
Hello Grace. I've been trying to contact you for the past few days but I couldn't reach you. Are you in Melbourne or overseas?...I would like to offer you MBBS (all phrased in my own words )
I couldn't believe my eyes. I went into like a panic. What do I do? I want to do medicine but what if He thinks it's not meant for me? why does He put it in my way after I've decided to accept pharmacy? man, my mind was going in circles. it always does whenever I get something from Him that I never deserve. Like when I got straight As for PMR. I just stared at the paper. I didn't trust my eyes. When my mum asked me what I got, I just passed her the paper. And she confirmed it. Straight As.
so, the situation was similar here. I was afraid. My mind wanted to be rational but my heart was screaming for medicine. so I e-mailed Lee and what she said gave me peace. like a confirmation. when God opens the door, just go in. And so I did. XD Now, I've got things to do.
1. get the acceptance letter in tomorrow and ensure that my TT didn't disappear.
2. get my visa done in the city.
3. enrolment and registration is on the 14th of Feb. (yea, i know. valentine's day. but as I have no bf, it doesn't matter.)
4. then my course commences with a camp at Phillip Island from 23th to 25th Feb.
now, as for pharmacy, it's HISTORY. ahaha. but I have to admit, I am scared cos most people will be way smarter and way more hardworking than I am. all the 99 and above people. Definitely intimidating. But hey, since I chose to walk into this door He's opened, I trust that He'll help me to cope.
so, till next time, God bless. oh yea, I will try to update each week ok. but i'm afraid sometimes it might just be some boring posts cos my life ain't that interesting. :P
