fudgester SG Yeah... the competition for rooms was a killer. The results for the application for accomodation was supposed to be out on 9th Dec. However, due to the avalanche of applications, I received a call from the admin people earlier this morning while I was attending a lecture. The guy who called me was pretty direct: 'You need to give me an answer now, or I'll give your room to someone else.'
LazerLordz SG Think I'll give it a shot next year, but I am still only keen on PGP or KR. Eusoff is too hectic for my comfort. I do want the serenity of being able to study without distractions.
fudgester SG You get three choices. I chose KR as my first choice - didn't get it. Sheares was my second choice. Ridge View Residences (next to YIH) was my third choice. The competition for PGP and RVR is pretty hot. That's why I put KR and Sheares as my first two choices.
rainee SG i hate my parents... for the thousandth times can't even let me go to work in peace...everyday must find something to quarrel wif me
fudgester SG Wah kaoz... that's a surefire way of getting kicked out the very next day... Anyway, I've turned down the offer to stay at Sheares Hall. In all honesty, I was really looking forward to experiencing Hall life, but the truth is that my finances don't permit it. If I were to spend $1400 on one semester of Hall life now, my finances would be at a very precarious state. My sis has offered to lend me $1000, but it doesn't change the fact that I would still have to repay her over the holidays. And the opportunity cost of spending $1400 is just too much for me. Oh well... I'm trying to shoot for an internship for the May-August holidays. I'll try to save up as much as I can and go for Hall again in my final year.
hisoka SG won't get kicked out lah. you dun go and publicise it around lor. in the mean time enjoy your stay there hmmz go caltex for internship good pay.
fudgester SG I've shot my resume to CAAS, ST Aerospace, SIA Engineering, and Eurocopter. I'm trying to go for some aerospace firm, since that's what I'm specialising in. I won't rule out non-aerospace firms, either... I should be sending out more resumes to DSTA, ExxonMobil and, yes, Caltex this weekend. I'm betting that the HR directors of all those firms are laughing their heads off at my dumbass resume as we speak.
