got this in the mailbox today.. wasn't exactly my day

APPLICATION FOR ADMISSION TO THE NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF SINGAPORE IN THE ACADEMIC YEAR 2005-2006

Thank you for applying to NUS.

Due to the extremely tough competition, I am sorry that your application for admission to National University of Singapore (NUS) has not been successful.

Please be assured that your application was treated carefully and throughly. Admission to NUS is very competitive as a large number of talented students, such as you, apply each year. However, the number of places for the course you have applied is limited and hence, we have arrived at this very difficult decision.

We appreciate your interest in NUS and wish you all the best in your future endeavours.

Yours sincerely

Assoc Prof Tan Thiam Soon
Dean of Admissions

Somehow.. this letter is the exact replica of the same rejection letter i recieved last year. Upon recieving this letter, i felt bitterness and sadness at having been rejected of the chance to study. I have the heart to study... yet i do not have the chance. So if you guys were given the chance, treasure it please. Thanks a million.

To the other souls out there on this night having the same predicament as me.. do not despair because if theres a will.. theres a way. God Bless :)
