The clock strikes 12 and I'm still awake, wandering aimlessly in cyber space. I know I have not been blogging as often but I do have a valid reason for that. Plenty, to be honest.
First of all, my application to a degree course in NTU that I submitted in early January proved to be unsuccessful. For the nosey ones out there, I applied for their "Mass Communication" degree course as well as their Arts, Design & Media course.
For some reason, it seemed that I had it going in my life. I never faced any rejection in my life. Going to a secondary school was a breeze because of my above average PSLE results. In addition, I had no problems applying for a spot in NP's Diploma in Mass Communication. I thank god for all the achievements that I have made for myself thus far but facing rejection... it kinda stings ... hurts.
I took a long while brooding over the matter. I probably got rejected because I rushed through my Uni application at that period of time. But then again, do I really want to do Design throughout my entire life? To be honest, my designing skills are really not that good as much as all of you think but of course I would die to be one of the Art Directors for a local fashion magazine like Augustman / Details / Style: Men. Sure I enjoyed my last semester doing an internship in Design handling HYPE Magazine, newspapers, event collaterals etc. Oh great now I just motivated myself that design is a wise choice.
However, I seem to be forgetting that pursuing an internship in design was never really my option at all. Where I really want to be in the Events/ PR/ Advertising scene and I could not get that for my internship. I remember being part of PITCH and MYCA, but I was quite annoyed that I wasn't involved in the planning of the whole event since I was designing the whole time.
Designing? Not so much. I know some of you might say, you have a kickass portfolio already, why not just do design? Honestly, I really don't know what I want anymore. And I'm quite scared actually. As much as I did not want to do design for my internship semester, it actually got me a 4.0 GPA though.
Whatever it is, I DESPERATELY need to get into a University in Singapore. And if I keep on getting rejected, I might go over to Sydney and study there. My uncle would be so happy to have me there but then money is the problem la.
Degree in Business? Do I want that? Degree in Visual Communication? Back-up plan? I am such a confused boy right now. I need someone to enlighten me. Sigh. Thank god for the 2 years in Army, I hope by then I have fully decided what I want to do in life.
I can't think already. I need to sleep. Tomorrow is a new day.
P.s I'll resume my Australia Travelogue soon. So many photos laaaa.
