Sometimes, time play a trick on you. I still remembers, when my mother is nagging about all those details in US, I waived her advice away, and tell her.
" Still got one year la, worry later. "
And the same goes, but from one year, it becomes 3 month, 1 month, and now...10 days before I take the flight and FLY. I'll never realize that one year can be awfully fast.
And as usual, there are always something missing. I don't get my date for orientation despite sending two times mail, and my request of sending me an offer letter was practically a useless one because... their website for help encountered a programming error and still unfixed.
Swirl of worries rolled in my head occasionally, thinking whether am I actually getting a place in U of M. To conform my worries, I look at my big I-20 and the university welcome campus, read those mail that contained the word "confirm enrollment" and "you are admitted" to actually ensure myself I am admitted. Well, maybe I was just over worried. But the fact stays, I don't have my acceptance letter. A lost in post, OSSP fault? Or is it just because I confirmed my enrollment online?
The acceptance letter might be a nothing, but well, I hope it didn't end up to be something for me......I don't want to imagine the consequences when I reached U of M, only to know my big ass was kicked away from my uni...it was dreadful for sure...
* I Don't even want to think about it *
So, what should I do in the last ten days?
Maybe on a shopping spree to buy needed stuff, maybe attending lectures from the bossy aunt about how to survive in US. ( I think i can survive better in US than to survive in her lectures). Or even go on an online spree and gaming spree before I formatted my laptop.
Well, nothing unusual, though the term "nothing unusual" was actually quite a sad one. I had no family grand dinners, no friends to spend moments at cyber cafe and kopitiam, reminiscining the past. Well, they are all pursuing their dream, regardless in Singapore, Melaka, Penang, KL, Kedah, my best wishes follow. May you all be well and happy.
Things in Minnesota will not be a bed of roses either. Firstly, I am staying alone, secondly, I lived quite far from my campus, thirdly, my housing was quite expensive, fourthly, I just forget how to survive alone after enjoying life of company in these two years.
But as my old saying, happy or sad, I shall emo through it, or just get through it.
Everything will be ok? That's how those movie usually end.
