Nope. I didnt hear anythg abt that. Only heard orientation on Nov 13 at 9am! I was too happy to hear anythg else. Congrats to both of us!

Understand. My DW was quite emotional when our DS name was flashed. We were too happy to listen carefully to the announcement. Only heard something about schoolbus. I felt sorry for the lady in pink though. The one who helped to open the ballot slip. I can't imagine myself standing there and not seeing my son's name each time I open the slip. I was hoping for her son's name to be called (ie after my son's name was called).

GOT IT!!! Gosh, my heart almost stopped beating and it seemed like all hope was gone. We were like the number 58th to be called. Just one after us, they announced the last seven names to be drawn.


Thank you all for your well wishes.

My husband taking me to The Line later for celebration.

So does it mean that at times the same child's name is called 2x? So it is just using marked papers with registration numbers of child, right? Yes, can imagined the stress & heart pounding moments.

But first..... :congrats: :celebrate:

If the child's name has been called earlier, it will be treated as a repeat ballot. No vacancy will be taken up and the ballot continue. Towards the end of the balloting, there were many repeat ballots. So had to keep drawing from the fish bowl.

Hmm... I bet other parents must be kinda pissed off when they keep hearing those repeat ballots...
