so, i have finally come to the end of my polytechnic days. a tad unbelievable that i have come thus far, yet also utterly grateful that i
have come thus far. these 3 years were definitely not an easy one. tons of ups and downs that they can make a big long rollercoaster ride. haha. but yet, through it all, i've grown, i've changed. and i would say, i'm glad that i went to poly, that i chose to walk the poly road, for perhaps it is during my time here that i learnt the most.
through these 3 years, i've learnt to trust in God and have faith in Him. even if situations are undesirable, even when i felt like im in utter despair, when i felt like im losing hope, when so many things seemed to be rushing at me at the same time that i've no idea what to do, i learnt that i just gotta have faith and trust in Him to bring me through.
and i believe in this more strongly as time goes by during my poly years bcos i have seen and felt what it means by "He makes everything beautiful in His time." and the verse, "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts." has indeed struck a chord in me.
of cos, there are times when i asked "why God? why? how come?", "God, do you hear me?", etc.. but when i finally understood why at points in time God said yes/no/wait/etc.. i learnt not to question that much anymore. well, now, there are still times when i asked God "why?" and then, (imagine God raising one eyebrow and giving me that look) i would say "okkkk, i know, i know. i won't question Your plans. i know You know what You're doing. i will trust..." haha :P
poly life can be challenging at times, but i do cherish the time spent doing things that are of my interests, no doubt tiring at times, but i rly enjoy doing the projects/roadshows/whatnots. and at the end of the day, when you see the projects/presentations/reports/roadshows/etc that you have done, the "fruit of your labour", there's always a sense of acheivement, and the bonus would be when you get a good grade la. haha.
through these 3 years, i thank God for my poly friends. they made it easier to go through the "labour". we had our own fair share of fun and laughter too. and of cos, i thank God too for those few friends who are close to my heart, for they have encouraged me, provided me with a listening ear and showered me with lots of care and concern through it all (:
on the last day of school (thursday), my friends and i were talking over dinner, asking each other what are our plans for the future, what would our future career be? and i was thinking, i am interested in events management, somewhere along that line. like organising events and all that. perhaps it was through the poly years, when we get to experience what is it like to either organise an event/ be part of the 'carrying-out the event" people/ etc.. like those times when i got the chance to help out at the EFFIES award (an advertising award event, the judging round on the different ads and their other promotional tools) and the Hall of Fame Gala Dinner (when they gave out the awards). both events have been a great experience and has stirred an interest in me. haha. but the future, who knows how it will turn out to be?
for now, it's on to a whole new phase - University. yes, another academic phase. i've no idea where i would end up studying at. really. have to wait for my results to come out, then show them my final sem results and then wait for the acceptance letters. only then perhaps, all the fog will be cleared and i'll know where im heading to. so now, it's a 4 months break for me. haha. time to start planning what im gonna do..
