More Updates

Well, it's about 2 weeks to the starting of final year.
Still, I haven't got any news from the Dean's Office.
So I called up the lady in charge of student affairs this morning. And amazingly, I got through to her on the second try! Thinking that I might be having more good luck coming my way, I popped the question, "Has the Dean written to the Registrar's Office?"
The answer in return, well, was not exhilarating, but neither was it totally unexpected. Apparently the Dean had been away for the past few days and he only came back to the Office today. Which means he prob has 1001 things to attend to before seeing mine. What's worse is that his daughter would be going for an operation tomorrow and I figure that would mean he would be taking even more leave in time to come.
Is this a bad omen? Am I really not fated to go back to school? After reading the sad story of my fellow senior (Dr) Adrian Yeo, I can't help but feel scared at the thought of having to return $400,000 to the government for breaking the bond. If I were really forced to stop school, and if I can't serve in the hospitals to fulfil my bond, then where on earth am I going to find $400,000 to pay MOH?? Why do such horrendous monetary disasters happen to me and not my richer peers? Seriously, my family is not well-to-do and I'm sure there are many more people in my faculty who can afford this sum of money! And is my character so bad that I must be punished in this manner? I'm sure there are many other colleagues out there who are in this profession for the wrong reasons.
Oh well... I guess... There's nothing I can do at the moment. Ironically, that's what the school student advisor said to me too. I'll just have to continue waiting...

Hey! Don't worry! Looks like all these are just admin problem... don't think it's likely that you can't go back just becoz of admin screw up... at the very most go lack a few days late? :P

Ever heard of this song?
Have faith in God
Just have faith in God (x2)
Just trust in Him
And never doubt
I know my Lord will work it out
If you just have faith in God

I think there's no way that I can tell you not to worry, but I am sure things will work out somehow. We may not know how things will progress right now, but we are all certainly rooting for you. You aren't alone in this. Hv faith!

Hey hey! Thanks so much for all the encouragement yah. Heh. I certainly do hope I can go back to sch this year. Another year of waiting would be crazy. =P In any case, I see this as a test of faith, like I was telling Spinkypinkie. So, yup! I'll definitely push on. =)

College is a huge bureaucratic mess, but I'm certain you'll be ok in the end. Take care!
