i feel really disappointed that my aunt is unwilling to even lend me money for my studies in Australia. Well, i can't blame her because in times like this, people tend to get more calculative with their finances, especially when she's an accountant.
However, she has her points too. Nevertheless, this is my dream and i am going to live it. i'm going to prove to her that i can make it and also show to her that i have my other resources to back me. I reckon god is kind to those who are kind... if you really want something, he will find his way to provide. It may not be the best but a good enough option.
Just after my dad and i went to apply for an education loan with citibank this afternoon, i read my email inbox and found a reply from my aunt. It was really disheartening because it will be a further strain for my dad to help pay for my accommodation... and with him doing that, i won't be getting any living expenses. Which translates to me having to work for it. soooo... i was quite sad la. Haven't broken the news to my dad but he more or less knows. Was at my grandma's place just now when my uncle wanted to come. Dad said he has to go off but uncle insisted on coming so made my dad wait.
He asked me how were my preparations for my studies and whether or not my aunty was willing to sponsor. So obviously, no. Told him that we went to apply for an education loan and would most likely be approved by wednesday or so.. and should be able to get the bank draft by the beginning of next week. And then, he voluntarily said he will sponsor my accommodation. Asked how much it is and said it was cheap and added that he will write a cheque for me and pass to me before i leave.
phew. that's one big burden off my shoulders and also my dad's. hahas. god blesses you in his own ways. just believe in him! praise the lord! now my dad will probably be able to help me with some living expenses as well! yay! =)
all that aside, i have been quite stressed out with all these and having to wait patiently for the several parties to reply me. that has caused a partial insomnia.. oh wells, i think i should have better sleep for the week ahead!
meeting chee leng tmr to catch up! would be a good time! miss you babe.
