I GOT IN!
Here I am, on a Wednesday morning, totally thankful for what God has done for me in my life.
It seems that things don't go the way you planned them to be, but somehow, things fall into place quite perfectly I must say.
Take my education journey for example.
From an IJ school. I wasn't thankful for the Catholic education that was priceless.
I went on to a protestant environment. It was a real test of my faith. And I started to appreciate what I had lost. Something that money could never buy.
Now, you must be thinking, what's the big deal of a catholic education? It is a big deal, a HUGE DEAL in fact.
What are all the Catholics doing in ACSI? Don't they have SJI to turn to (Which is of similar standards in terms PSLE entry score)? What are all catholics doing in MGS/ SCGS, don't they have St. Nicks to turn to (and again, which is of similar standards).
Where's the support man!
Well, it's my turn to show some support of the Catholic schools in Singapore.
I've prayed about it in fact, and given my standards, I'm very sure I can get into JCs which are termed 'better' e.g. SAJC. I've got a calling in CJC? Yeah, and I went on with the DSA application.
It was amazing when I got shortlisted for the interview. It was even more amazing when I passed the interview. Because my DSA 'forte' was Leadership. And not many people get in through that as a CCA. Like erm Rugby, Track, Netball, more likely, the more useful ones.
Just want to thank God for all the things he's done in my life. If I had never gone to St. Marg's, I would have never proved myself worthy of this gift of leadership within a period of three to four months. If I had never gone to St. Marg's, I would have never appreciated a Catholic eudcation this much.
To all those who have not gone thru secular/protestant doors! Praise God for the wonderful education you have!
I'm just SO HAPPY LA NOW.
I'll step into those doors on 2 Jan 07.
P.S. I'm not mad. Just really appreciative.
