I got accepted for June Orientation Committee!!
I actually almost gave up hope because they didn't call me last Friday (which they said they would if we were chosen). "Until Monday..." I said to myself. Monday came, nothing. I decided that if I am not chosen, then so be it and actually rehearsed some lines in my head like "I guess it was obvious that I won't be chosen because I'm not good enough." or "I knew it I'll never get chosen because there are so many people applying for this." 280 people applied and they will only choose 80 people.
Because I never got chosen for anything, my expectation wasn't high, though my hopes were.
At about 10pm just now, while I was waiting for our food, I felt my phone vibrate and thought maybe it was Giang calling or something. I took out my phone and 'June OC (SRC)' was on the screen; my brain froze for a while as I stared at my phone.
I turned my phone to let Dion see as I try to soak up the reality. Even then I thought maybe they called me to tell me I wasn't chosen (but they had said before if we were not chosen, they won't call, so please no hard feelings) or maybe it isn't the OC people at all.
I picked up the call.
"Hey, is this Miss Fion Chua?"
"Umm, yes."
"I'm calling from (I forgot) and I want to notify you - " Omg yes. " - that you were selected for the June Orientation Committee." Yes!
I was so excited I couldn't say anything properly except "thank you!". I was so happy and I'd never felt this happy in a long time, even though I am generally a happy person, but you get what I mean. During the phone call, I was trying to figure out who was on the other end of the line but obviously I couldn't haha, though I kept thinking of that guy I talked to (whom was acting as a freshie) during our simulation. I keep imagining myself seeing him.
Not too long after, Ken FB messaged me asking if I got the place. I told him and yay, he got it too! So I'm not forever alone after all. I was hoping so badly these few days, to allow me and him the places.
I just... don't know what to do. My words were incoherent and my eyes almost teared when that happened. I never knew I could feel so overwhelmed. I wanted it so badly.
Now to get through the camp and earned my title as OC Fion!
First meeting this Wednesday at 8:30pm~ \^v^/
Before going to HB2 to tapao, when we were in HB3, I actually told Giang that the OC people didn't call me. "Go back, sleep, and try again next time," Giang's advice. After we tapao-ed from HB2, we went back up to HB3 , I told him the good news and maybe he was a little happy but didn't want to show it obviously.
Sis jokingly said he should treat us to a drink because of the occasion and he actually did!
