Bye-bye UK..

What is it with the title? As of now, it is confirmed that I won't be continuing my studies in the UK. Why? Cause I didn't get amongst the top 35 best to go to UK. So, how now? Since I won't be going to the UK, I'll end up going to Ireland. How come? Well, as a MARA scholar, we are allowed to choose 2 choice of country which we'd like to go, and I did chose UK as my first choice, followed by Ireland. I don't get placed amongst the 35 best, hence, I am placed into the list to Ireland instead.

Hahah, silly am I being huh? Asking questions to myself and answered them back. But hey, what I told up there is indeed true. So, I don't get to go to the UK. There goes my dreams of studying in the University of Manchester. There goes my dreams of going to the Theater of Dreams to support the Red Devils. And, there goes my dreams to live amongst the Britons, although for only 5 years, but that five years, if I could, it would be a wonderful 5 years there.

Never mind though, Ireland is not that bad, in fact, it ain't bad at all. Maybe its just me, the feeling in me that would not accept the fact that I'll be going to Ireland instead of UK made the difference. But hey, anywhere in the world is the same right? The most important thing is to live life happily. And that is what I'll try to do now is convince myself that its just the same. In fact, it is the same. So, why bother?

Still, there's one thing I need to do is try obtain a 35 for my final IB exam. I mean, at least a 35, if not, I wouldn't be going anywhere. But, I wouldn't target for a 35 only, I want higher than that. A 40 if possible, or maybe higher. Thats what I'm hoping for now. And I want to strive for it. For me, my parents, my loved one, and those who are related to me. Just prove that I can, and that is what I want to try doing for now.
