Well, that was a fun two weeks spring break. I studied for my L, worked on some portfolio - which I still have to finish, fixed up my computer that had motherboard problem, went on facebook, worked at ComputerWorks, sat around and now break was over before I could say "school." Also, it was a pleasure to hear that I've been accepted into CELE(Computer+Electronic Engineering) ROTP at RMC, which is a trememdous honour. The acceptance rate is minimal and there is a nation-wide selection. It's also a mandatory study of 4 years (ending up with a Bachelors degree) and 9 years of mandatory service as an officer in the CF(Canadian Forces). That's kinda crazy if you think about it. A total of 13 years is not a short time. The consequences also include a lost chance for me to learn Chinese, time to visit the family, and all the relatives in China, . But, good to have that choice open.

Univs that have accepted me conditionally so far: UVic, UBC, SFU
Accepted me fully - RMC

So yeah. I'm glad that I have a lot of choices, which are always good to have so I don't end up living in a cardboard box or something of the like. Now the problem is "Where do I go?" I really don't know. I think RMC is the best choice for me, but I just have to wait awhile and think over my decision carefully. It does happen to be the decision of a lifetime. The path I select now could totally and irreversibly affect my future and my direction in life. That is very scary indeed. I've never had to make such an enormous decision ever before in my life. Even my parents are all worked up over this. But God will put me where he thinks is right.

Anyways, let's put this daunting yet exciting thought aside for now. I got school coming up tomorrow. Meh, the rest of high school seems like nothing compared to my offers of acceptance now. In fact, I only got 3 months of it left until graduation. I remember how in elementary school and middle school, we thought of graduation as something that would never come, and I don't think anybody realized the importance of career prep and portolio introduction back then. Well, the last term of my entire high school years is coming soon and after that .. no more high school. Sometimes, I just ask - are we all time traveling or something? I seriously swear time is playing tricks on everybody. Anyone else have that feeling?

We also watched this set of DVDs as a family over the spring break. Those 15 episodes were amazing. This Chinese PhD dude with heaps of famous research, with a youth background set in the Chinese revolutionary days, talks about how he discovers God, has come to embrace Christ, and proves the existence of God with insurmountable scientific evidence, as well as simple real-life experiences. Totally amazing.


meh, i'm back to portfolio. need to have it done to grad.. so that would be all for today.
