I HAVE BEEN OFFERED A SEAT BY NTU! I HAVE GIVEN A CHANCE TO STUDY IN SINGAPORE!!!

ya i know, it is a precious chance for me , not that everyone can get such a chance.
ya i know, i will only have improvement if i study in a competitive environment such as singapore.
especially , the improvement in english.
ya i know, in order for me to improve and surpass myself day by day, i need a platform to expose myself with those genius of each field. Wherever let you feel humble, it is the best place for you to learn.
Including the exposure to the various cultures, studying environment,high-tech teaching materials, dedicated and professional lecturers......

"yes, if im not selected by NUS. NUS is still my first choice if studying in sg"

Nus intake shortlist will be released in May. and i m praying and hope that i m in the list.
and of coarse, it is better to study in sg with holding a scholarship, it is in deep lighten lots burden. Will I?

"i will try and do my best, and let the rest to God"
i tell myself, often.

平凡的我，另一个起点。

在半睡半醒的情况下，接到一通电话
来自吴总的来电

几分钟的通电，纲要：
“德祥”，想通知你一下，你被录取了。”

我成了YCA其中一员了！

第一次参加干训，在吉兰丹。坐了12小时的火车抵达，印象深刻/痛苦回忆？哈！当时我14岁，一进营时的严肃气氛,指导员的呼喝声，哈哈，难忘的回忆。

第二次参加干训，在芙蓉，进营还不到12小时就被送入院，一住就住了十天。在医院里拿pmr成绩，倒数新年。此后，就被YCA列入“高风险”名单。YCA举办了二十年的营，据说我的名“有幸”
被编排在此名单的第一位，“头号危险人物”！

第三次参加干训，在吉隆坡中华。当时大庆，被安排入“医辅部”。吴总对我说“让你进医辅部，上次全部人照顾你，现在到你来照顾别人”。

也是基于缘分，我参加了干训。
六年后的今天， 我从曾经的营员变成了现今的成员。

不过无法参与举办今年的干训，因为与《第一届蒲公英领袖培训营》撞个正着，可惜。
（在想着，当我向YCA其他成员自我介绍时，是不是该说：嗨，我就是那YCA头号危险人物XD）


YCA和蒲公英，年年都举办全国中学营。
将上大学的我，是否在未来能够兼顾的来？
--没有我做不到的事，只有我不想做的事！--
来日方长，多了些接触精英的机会，多了更多些学习的机会，也多了些贡献的机会
平凡的我，另一个起点。
未来的我将会是怎样？会有什么样的改变？

此时此刻，祈祷着自己，希望能够得到奖学金到新加坡大学深造。

新！

新挑战

新尝试

新环境

新改变

新纪录

新思维

新接触

新生活

跳出框框

接受挑战

再造辉煌！
