What happens when one faces rejection?
Be it from a girl or a school, ultimately the same type of hurt just sets in. When not handled or dealt with carefully, one may end up starting the college life on the wrong footing.
As often as it is, one in the state of confusion is inclined to ponder : "Where does my incompetence lie that I'm not in their favour?", "Am I not 'palatable' enough for them?"
But then again, I had God's wisdom to embrace.
The rejection of my appeal to VJC has indeed strengthened my resolve and conviction - that I am at TJC for a purpose and hence I've only one direction to look : Forward.
To me, this is an invaluable lesson and it has also freed up the uncertainty that has been on my mind these days.
Orientation.
As fun as it seems, we're bombarded with incessant cheering and the perpetual inflow of information.
And then, the inevitable tormenting mass dance.
Don't get me wrong here though, I'm not critical towards the whole mass dance.
On the contrary, I love the various styles of dance :)
There was even this song and dance movement that was almost completely similar to my Primary 5 camp mass dance! What memories it brought.
However, there's this dance movement which involves the pairing of a couple. Am I gynephobic? Obviously not. Haha!
But I'm just skeptical and apprehensive towards some of the dance steps. They are intimidating enough for me lol!
Nevertheless, I can only put in my best effort and hope in getting the right partner (height is of real importance here, not the looks). Lest I get screwed up big time in public (Suntec City - Fountain of Wealth).
This is my first couple dance ever since Kindergarten 2 when I was always the jolly yet naive lead dancer, sigh... (not of relief, but of confusion)
By the way, KI (Knowledge & Inquiry) sample lecture today was interesting enough to justify my reasons of giving it a shot.
I'm not fully serious about taking KI yet, though. But I'm dead serious about giving the aptitude test and interview a shot. For fun? For real? It's up to your 'perception'.
Talk about madness.
