Hi all. I'm now rotting in a LAN shop accompanying my boyfriend, for the 234098th time. But how much can I complain? This will just happen again and again and again and it won't matter how unhappy I am about it. I'm just an insignificant little flea nesting around town.
I've decided to try auditioning for the bachelor degree in Musical Theatre in Lasalle in April. This is really what I want to do and money will not be a barrier. And after talking to Wee Kiat, I realized that I'm not really in such a terrible financial situation. As compared to his fees, mine are really like amoeba.
The fees are like $21,000 a year. If I manage to get a grant of $4000, it will be reduced till $17,000. If I manage to get another bursary of lets say $5,000, it will be reduced till $12,000. Thereafter I'll just get bank loans for 3 years. Altogether I'll owe the bank about $36,000.
If I pay the bank back about $1,000 every month, I'll just keep paying my debt for 3 years! Only 3 years! So by the time I finish my debt, I'd be about 26, or 27 years old. Still very young! Yay! Just in time to start family. =D
Okay no point planning so much when I haven't even gone for the auditions. I might not even get in. From what the lecturer said, the standard is so damn high. And chances of Asians getting in are so much lower because the Caucasians are stronger technically. And there's like a ratio of 5:1 Caucasians to Asians enrolling for Musical Theatre from what I heard from the enrolment people.
This is worrying. But at least I know I'm competing against people who are worth competing against. I must work hard.
