A Prayer

School is finally starting for me tomorrow. I've been a nsf/free loader/teacher for nearly the past 2 and a half years or so. The beginning of student-hood has been much anticipated and awaited. It feels like i've waited for an eternity for this milestone.

RIP 13/11/08 - 24/07/11
I'm never going to look back.

I pray that 4 years later as I look back to this blogpost, i'll see my prayers answered with a smile on my face. What prayers though? Simple. To do well. That's all I asked for.


I think the NIE Geog department has a great sense of humour by starting the course introduction slide with that header above. Like totalleh help us prospective students look forward to school. They then did a Top 10 reasons to study Geography and Point #9 was...


Told ya they have a great sense of humour right? Then Point #4 was "You'd get out of classroom" which compromises of spamming the next few slides with photographs of outdoor learning and the caption above. Completely siao one like trying to psycho those students who haven't choose their subject yet. (All the other points only got one slide each, you see)

Then when I see the courses I have to take for the next 4 years, I was a little bit shock actually. I thought I had to literally do everything related to geog in the next 4 years. Turns out I get to choose my favourite topics in geog which I want to do!!

Year 2 I have 10 modules to choose from and although I have to choose one from human, physical and technique, I get to choose the last one from any of the other 3 strands above. I looked at the 10 modules and I feel like i'm interested in most of them so I think it's going to be a tough choice. (Except with Coastal and Ocean systems. Hello, me is the one who give up Hydrology in A Level okay) =D Happy because no matter what I choose, I'm doing stuff that I like! Same goes for Year 3!

From the point I knew what I would be studying, I can't help but to thank God for allowing the switch to happen. There's this sense of security within me that tells me that everything is going to turn out well.

I hope. Maybe like 2 years later if I didn't do well and have to drop out of university, I can look back at this post and laugh at the big joke God has played on me. But I pray and hope He won't. And I know He won't. (:
