yikes! nearly 4am. hehehe... well, feeling a bit surprised with what i found out.
as a kid, the name Canterbury was always floating around. I still remember my dad said something about going there, something abt meeting the Archbishop or Canterbury, the cathedral, etc etc... So, it's like not surprising that when i finally got over the phase of wanting to marry in Greece (yeah, yeah... i know i dream a lot), Canterbury is next. (whr next ah?) Read the guide, know the layout of the Cathedral (found in my dad's bookshelve) did my research & etc... Did not hurt dat Orlando is also from Canterbury... LOL... :P
Talking abt Orlando, I just found out that one of the uni that are my options (if I do decide to get MA) is practically his neighbor.. LOL. yeah, the uni of Kent is next to his old school (st. edmunds) and is opposite St. Thomas Hill where he lives (well, his mom la). hehehe... I didn't know when i was looking for uni. (I also found another uni nearby that offered courses dat my sis wanted.) the point was to find a place that offer courses that i want (& perhaps my is at the same time but in different unis) and is cheaper than London (yeah, i wanna do my Masters in UK). so i stumbled upon U of Kent (for me) &w as browsing through Canterbury uni & found out that they offers my sis' choices. U of Kent i like at leat 2 thousand pounds cheaper than London Film School. still wondering.. should i go?the problems are:
1. financial (duh!)
2. requirements: have to graduate with degree honours, which UNFORTUNATELY Curtin is not offering us (Mass Comm students)
3. It's kinda against my parents wishes: they dun want me to get into the industry (film)
4. it's gonna be c-o-l-d! (Yeah, i'm afraid of the cold. :p )
So now pening pening think of it. wanna prove to sum @ssholes that i actually have a brain. Besides, i'm actually scared to go into the working world. hehehe... My dream of studying in Uk esp London has been around for ages and got worse once in got into British music, films and celebrities (hell, look my my walls & the music i listen to). hehehe...
A background info.
it's not surprising when i got into this "British phase". the reasons?
1. i grew up around adults (my dad's friends & collegues) , quite number of them are English
2. One of my earliest memories is learning how to read from my dad's lecturer, an English man.
3. growing up, we tend to get gifts, cards & letters from UK.
4. I interracted a lot with foreigners (considering my dad's job & growing up in public, it's not surprising la)
5. There was a period where i had a slight accent, which i tend to slip into when i speak to foreigners. accidentally okay.
6. We were pretty close to the British High Commissioner in Brunei when we first moved here. He played the piano for the choir (my sis & I used to sing in the choir then)
7. I am registered in the Royal School of Church Music (RSCM)in UK since i was like, 8 years old.
8. since my dad studies in Australia then when he's alder he studies in UK, so why cant I study in an Australian uni (S'wak campus though) and then go to UK? hehehehe...
I stop at 8 before i tell u more nonsense. another reason why i wanna go to UK instead of US is coz my dad has more frens in UK than in US. hehehe... DUN MEAN TO BRAG but it doesn't hurt to dream right? Education is something one should pursue when one is still capable, innit? Besides, it doesn't hurt when the campus is near where i can 'cuci mata'. hehehehe... I miss doing that. Sigh... hopefully my life in 1 year's time is waaaay better than it is now...no more shit from psycho ppl...
Bleh, time to log off... it's nearly 4.30 am! wanna dream of Orlando la... Hmm... isn't it a wonder why I like guys who all have the ame features?
