Every night before I sleep I just hope it's just a bad, bad nightmare.
Just I always get disappointed the next morning.
The past few years have been a real mess.
While people are finding ways to prove their existence, I wish there's a way to do it the other way round.
As we are yet to have a real one, I took a ride on my own time machine - to read my old blogs.
March is always a special month for me, as in all the previous March, they were filled with unexpected events, both good and bad.
It was March 2008, I was eagerly anticipating a reply from the L school.
I was excited, and at the same time, nervous.
Early in the month, I took an entrance exam, which was considered as a breakthrough already for a foundation course student.
I didn't give a shit at all. All I needed to know was the result.
My IELTS result also came out that month, and it looked alright. I thought perhaps there could be a miracle coming?
Days after days, I just couldn't focus on doing anything.
My heart skipped a beat every time a new email came.
But no. None of them was from the school.
I kept waiting, until the very last day of the month.
And I got rejected.
How nice it was.
Then a pitiful prospectus got torn into pieces.
It was March 2009, I had an telephone interview from the C school. I did well and they gave me an offer. An offer with the condition that's totally unachievable. And I screwed it up. It was the closest distance between the the C school and me.
It was March 2010, I was (mis)diagnosed and treated as a mentally ill person. Ha ha.
These are just a little part of my March stories.
So many people are getting interviews or even offers now. Does it irritate me? No. Not at all.
Life just seems to be lighter when you're not hoping for anything good.
And I am just waiting for crappy things to happen in the next couple of weeks, with some excitement.
