It arrived today but i've known about it through their website days ago. Saw ppl posting their letters on FB and had been waiting for mine - albeit a little eagerly. I love receiving letters with my name on it even if its PLKN notice or from colleges that i won't be enrolling into. LOL
Hmm... I don't know how to feel. Excitement, worry, curiosity, a host of emotions, but i'm mostly feeling calm. I always feel calm about anything until it actually happens...
I'd always been VERY convinced that i won't be going into NS, convinced that there might be issues that would otherwise hinder me from going - buuut i guess not. Its also a good thing i guess cuz it allows me to move around. I have been sitting around nowadays anyway...
I'm worried for my Japanese class and art lesson... And my job. I guess i can return to my job after NS but i can't be guaranteed a place in the same Japanese class. ;_; I love my class!!
Besides i think i'll only be going for 2 months cuz my uni starts 2nd June. But then my art skills will drop!! OTZ I'm almost practicing everyday recently (except for off-days when I tend to take a break from the creative world) and i wouldn't have time to leisurely draw in NS. Its a good thing too i guess cuz it allows my creativity to build back up and being exposed to a new world will open up ideas to me. Its like immersing youself in a whole new world... (Omg i can't wait for the obstacle course and flying fox.)
Teacher looked kinda disappointed when he got to know that i'll be away cuz he had things planned for us. And students intake for mid-year will be a lot due to school holidays. But there's really no way to escape now... <.<
I told Gong Gong (grandfather) yesterday that i'll be going into NS and he "Hah!?"-ed so loudly. Today he saw me opening the letter and i told him my camp location and stuff and he asked sis if she's going too.
Gong: Is that the letter??
Sis: No, these are from colleges...
Gong: *loud sigh*
Sis: Why are you sighing?
Watching their exchange, i then asked Gong Gong "Why? Are you hoping that everyone will be going?" He nodded. First time i see someone so keen on the idea... "Is it because we can learn to be independent?" He nodded again.
I never actually expected him to be so supportive of this program. When he first exclaimed so loudly, I thought he was against it. LOL Since he's an adventurous person, I guess its not weird to have him agree to this... He even got so high and excited and asked me if i get to hold a gun. XD
I will try to enjoy it and see how it really is. There are diverse reactions and opinions from people, so i dunno. Gotta witness it first hand. :) Mom asked me to make some friends and i admit i was a little surprised because she isn't one to be so happy and ask me to socialize. Well, I mean not that she's unsupportive or what, but its the first time i heard her say "Go and make some friends!".
Ever since my cousin knew that i'm going into NS, he got so excited. LOL (He's in SG's NS.) Sis keep saying that she'll feel so left out cuz she wouldn't have anything to say...
