Today was a relatively bland day, but turned out to be a pretty rewarding day as well. I stayed up til 4 in the morning, after a night full of COD and poker(I've been doing that a lot recently), so I woke up late. But I was in time to get ready for lunch at Tg. Malim with my parents! The whole family came and it was really nice to see them. Naturally, we went to Yik Mun Pau and I ate another zillion paus enough to feed Ethiopian families 3 years over.
Anyway, I GOT MY NEW GLASSES! After what's been like 6 or 7 years of using the same old small sized glasses, I finally have a new pair. It's Lee Cooper, it's more glassy and classy, it's bigger, and it's better quality lens. Lol I know, such materialistic enthusiasm but hey, these are concerning my eyes! So it took the whole day getting used to these new lenses. I was walking around ky and actually said to myself, "so this is what it's like to have 20/20 vision". Well not that I'd know, but I feel like my eyes have been reborn and every smallest detail in this world can be seen by my eyess
Also, later at night, I got an invitation from Axiata scholarship for the first assessment. Nothing special, but I'm still thankful I was even shortlisted. I'm not exactly the freshest pear in the fruit bowl, or whatever you call it. This is the first time I'm doing something scholarship-related in real life, so there are definitely nerves for this one. Wish me luck! OH and brandon said, "I heard that even if you pass the first few stages but still not get a scholarship offer, they'll give you an ipod". Small compensation, Brandon. hahaha. Why la like that? I know they have good intentions but it's like, "Oh sorry we didn't decide to give you an offer that would secure a successful and happy future for you beyond your wildest dreams, so here's an ipod. Knock yourself out." You know what I mean?
But in all seriousness, I really hope it'll go well. Ya Allah give me stregth.
