I've been pushing it to the back of my mind. Pushing and pushing. Wait till July, I tell myself. Wait till July when the system officially opens. And so I spent a month hiding from reality.

And now it's June.

How long do you think you can hide, tky?

I try to reassure myself. It probably doesn't matter if I get allocated unpopular projects, since I'm not interested in any of them anyway. I hope I'm right.

At times like this I'll chastise myself. You could have just graduated and get a job, why stay and suffer for one more year?

And then I remember the process of job searching is just as dreadful.

Oh well.

This is life.

  6. Nods... That's the problem...
    But I think if you put organic as your second choice, you should be able to get it if you can't get analytical as your first choice (TOUCH WOOD). Unless you are going for popular organic profs such as Lai, Tan and Martin, or you want to start your organic lab "training" early.
    Don' worry! = Fen
