docked.

After months of floating around aimlessly from prof to prof, not knowing who to choose and what to do; finally, i docked.

the process was almost random, but nonetheless amazing.

2 days ago i decided i'm sick of waiting, and has just crafted an email telling Prof A he's the One. Just as i was proof-reading the mail for the 2nd time, hans msn me n said, "try Prof D, he seems to do lots of modelling." hmm, y not? i've waited for months.. surely i can wait a day more; so i shelved that Prof A's email aside and proceed on to mail Prof D.

One day later: silence. I was going to send the former email again when my sis said, "y don't you pray again and wait just one more day?"

Huff. Fine. I'm that close to sending that email. twice.

Today, the mail came from Prof D. "Yes. I can supervise you for the project. The XX model is interesting."

~!~!~! this is the first time any of the Prof used the word "interesting" (actually he wrote "interested". nevermind his goot engrish). most of them sounded "magnanimous" more than anything (ok la.. can take u in la..)

well i dunno whether he's easy to work with, or is he a slave-driver.. it's like docking in the dark when the wharves are not working (he's on sabbatical until end of july, btw)

i really would like to thank all those frens who cared. for reading my forwarded emails. for bothering to reply my sms. for at least asking whether there're any updates. for 'yay-ing' with me. thank God for u all.

no matter wad, praise the Lord. at least ultimately i've docked with Him. come what may, He can't be wrong.
