offer letter..

alhamdulillah..
date : 13th July 2012..
"congratulations! we have the pleasure to inform you that the university has decided to offer you admission into the Bachelor's degree programme in : BACHELOR OF AUDIOLOGY (HONS.)"

yes, it is not my first choice, but still, i'm very greatful for it..
at first, i was trying to fulfill what i told my interviewer, Br. Zainul when he asked :
"What will you do if you DIDN'T get optometry?"
and so i answered : "I will find someone to switch places with me"

i started posting on the CFS IIUM Chatting group wall and on my status,
looking for people, who might want to trade places with me..
then suddenly, i paused..
"if optometry is meant for me, do make the path easy.. but if it is not what You wrote for me, do open my heart to accept whatever Your decision is.."
so i made up my mind.. Audiology it is.. :)

i updated my education info to :
"studying audiology at international islamic university malaysia, kuantan campus"
and started making research about the course that i'll be taking..

i added this senior who is taking up audiology too..
i even started looking for friends who will be with me along the way..
so far : syaheeratul mardhiah, hasrul hanif & newly acquainted fatin amira.. :)
