Nayang Scholar Interview

Inteview@1020am
Wake up at 7am!!! Left home at 8am for NTU, right at the far end of the east-west-line. LOL! The journey was not that boring. I met my friend at NEL and we chat till he drop off at Douby Ghaut for his work. From there to outram and to boon lay, i am accompanied by my mp3.

I told 179 from boon lay station to NTU. My destination is the student service centre. According to this student, i need to walk up this hill to reach the place. OH MAN! The hill is pretty steep and the sun was blazing. I was perspiring as though i just finished a 5k time trial. Still manage to reach the place at abour 945.

I met this guy, Andrew from SP. He is a fly swimmer. He was the 1st interviewee of the day. 2nd will be me and third is a girl by the name priscilla from np. Both of them are gold medalist and LKY award winner of their school. WOAH! i din tell them i am 1 too.. haha.

Interview was so~so. But i think i am honest and sincere about my answer. I dont wan to lie my way through just to impress the PHD and realised that i am just a empty vessel. I had my own stand and i strongly believe in it. Others will not change my mind on the target i set, comments and critisums will only shape my path to that target. I like the way i present myself in the interview. Enrolling to NTU is already my 'salary', getting the Nayang Scholarship will just be a bonus. I will be happy to get that. Even if i lose it, i am still satisfied with that 'salary'
Lets hope for the best~

New Friends
Andrew was a nice guy. He offered me and priscilla a ride to dover despite the fact that he is the first to be interviewed. We chat quite alot and exchange contacts. I believe we will meet up soon at the LKY award ceremony... maybe they will be surprised to see me there..(:

Night Training
I was late for training today. Needa do some work back at the lab.
Today we did intervals of 1k 2k 2k 1k at 30s rest interval. We going at a pace of 10k 5k 5k die. I missed the first 1k cause i was late. I did a 135 pace for both my 2k and a 130 pace for the last 1k. Then i go on to finish the 1k that i missed at 140 pace. Pretty easy cause of the cold weather.
Dinner-ed at the coffee shop near the police post and head back home.
