The Dream School

Yesterday, we got a call saying that my sister and i got accepted at the school we've been wanting to study at ever since we got here in Singapore. I remember just listening to my mom's voice saying "Hello. Oh this is MI. (acronym of the school's name)" The moment i heard those words, my eyes became larger than they already are and a smile started appearing on my face. My sister was very confused since i only gave her a hand gesture, telling her to come closer to me so that she could listen to the phone conversation as well. Her confused face was so priceless! It made me crack up. Haa! I was all excited while she looked like a lost puppy. But anyway, i heard my mom further say words like "Wow! They got accepted? Oh thank you! When should they enroll? Oh they are already admitted? Okay we should report tomorrow?..." And when my sister and i both clearly heard those words, we started jumping silently, of course so that we wouldn't disturb their phone conversation, but we jumped like some retards who can't control themselves. Haa! Seriously, the feeling is unexplainable! We've waited for MI to tell us that ever since last September. It was so worth the wait! We thought we'd never hear those words. We thought it would be hard for international students to get admitted at MI, plus the exam that we took for international students was really hard (The Math questions were out of this world! Okay, that's a bit exaggerated, but still. Haa!). That's why it was that exciting to know we passed.

I've been searching up MI online ever since we were still living in Berlin. It was the first and only school i wanted to ever apply to and also get accepted at. The first time we visited MI to apply, i felt so so nervous that i dressed myself very nicely and did my hair in a girly but neat way to look presentable and to show how i really want to study at that school. I remembered being very stressed during the night because all i could ever think about was either me getting accepted there or not. I even cried when  we received the test results of the test we took for international students. I thought i didn't have enough points to pass. Furthermore, i knew that schools here are very hard to get into since they really base your entry on your grades and that they are very strict on that matter. My sister tried convincing me that  i passed and that it's all fine, but i couldn't get myself to believe her and still thought i really didn't have enough points. So after all the dreaming, after all the stress and tears, here i am now with a huge smile on my face. Very thankful and very happy.

Some pictures i took of MI. This school is gorgeous! 

Whatever decision i now make from this day on, i at least know that i made it. That i got into my dream school. And with this, i can make it as an inspiration to pursue a couple more of my dreams in the future. I will continue to dream high and also work hard to achieve things. 

Thank you Lord, for answering our prayers. Thank you Lord for giving us this much strength in us to go through rough patches but still be able to make it in the end. Thank you Lord, thank you. 

Dream high guys!
