Long break at home

I finally had the luxury of taking leave on Friday. The long break of 3 days will definitely help refresh myself for the coming weeks. I took the days to meet up with friends, and to recover lots of rest and play time. I went to Plaza Sing on Friday night for a movie with friends from NJ, we watched Hot Fuzz. I'm glad that I had the opportunity to study in different JCs, else I wouldn't have made such good friends like them.

I just received an SMS from a female friend. She was offered a place in the Medicine course at an Indian University. I'm very happy for her and sad for myself. Sad because I'm stuck in NS for 2 years while my friend can further her studies without wasting time. I'm also sad because I don't have the chance to study overseas. A degree in a UK university will set me back S$200k. Although studying in Australia is a lot cheaper, there're no universities there which specialises in aerospace engineering. After my holiday in NZ a few years back, I really love the lifestyle and environment there - the relaxing pace of life, friendly people, cool weather.
