Today was the day my fate decides what free elective module I'd take next semester - UCCD or CDA. I would have personally wanted CDA but as I've said UCCD is fine with me except that I'd have to go through the class with an itch in my heart everytime.

I don't know why I wasn't enthusiastic at all about it - perhaps it's the nerves. 5 minutes before I'm supposed to go down to DMS, I can still read The New Paper. I was hoping to locate some fotune-teller in the Classified section but apparently, there isn't any. Only when it's 1 minute before the clock strike 12 (whoa, like Cinderella ah!) did I then drag my legs slowly down the stairs and into the DMS.

Whoa! I was greeted with so many anxious faces, both those who were involved and those who were kaypohs not. Min and Devon were already shitting in their pants, not literally, but I can see that in their faces. Ms Nga made things worse by delaying the drawing lots with her 'consoling speech' but I know she meant it well lah. =)

Before I knew it, 15 crumpled pieces of paper were thrown onto the table. Stress sia! If I happen to take an blank one, I'd be in CDA. Else, I'd go to UCCD. Initially, I wanted to be the last to take but somehow my hand moved, and with a little bit of thinking, picked one.

Those enthusiastic ones who picked first was already hip-hip-hooray-ing and announcing that they'll be in CDA and all. Shessh, luck of the draw. I uncrumpled the paper in my hand and took a glance before squashing it back into my hands.

Min wasn't jumping with joy but I can see the smile that she cuts across her face. Devon immediately teared and *snap* I knew what their outcome was. I understood how she was feeling and did all I can to console her but she just couldn't control her tears... She die die wanted CDA.

Then Kamesh (is that how her name is spelt?) approached Ms Nga and wanted to withdraw her place from CDA in exchange for a UCCD one. Not out of sympathy for Devon but out of her own will. WAAAHH!!! I know lah when God closes a door, He will open a window for you but not THAT fast right? Kamesh was like an angel in disguise...

In a split second, Devon had her smile back on her face. She hugged Kamesh, she hugged Min, she hugged me, she hugged Elf, we all had a group hug... in short, she gave everyone she knows there a big fat hug. Ooops, the irony.

Now Devon and Min will be in CDA. And they live happily ever after.

I'm just so happy that everyone that I know, is happy.





Who me? Well, I gotta be thankful for the Superman outfit that I wore inside my clothes. I didn't manage to get the whole outfit done but at least the red underwear is in place. =p


ps: I thought when the American-born Chinese girl at the Mediterranean stall left, I wouldn't go and buy the food there anymore. But today, there was another girl there. Waahhh, one eye-candy after another. I think I'm gonna get a tooth decay very soon.
