I got it! Hurray

:congrats: vicki! So, are you still looking at RMPS or ZDPS?

Hi qms, nope - think i will stick to MS. Dont think my heart can take such stress again!!

Only thing is i think i would be close to $30k poorer due to school bus fares... $150 (assume) x 12 mths x 6 years x 3 kids = abt $30k?

Yes, I was hoping for either repeat votes or my son's name. I saw all the ballot number from 60-69 (except 66) were flashed not once but twice. Felt very lousy at that point.

I was also hoping for repeat votes over and over until my number came along at around 53 and 54!!

Seems like we were the last 17 But better late than never. Btw, there were a pair of twins!! Cos i was sitting in front of them and also toking to their mummy!!

I didn't notice the number of PRs who got in. But I know the last name was a PR.

There were only 4 or 5 PR. I remember calculating the chance of getting in was at 95% after factoring in the PR.

And yes, the last one was a PR because the slip stated 1/1. For SC, it is either 1/2 or 2/2. When the last slip was drawn, everyone know there is no chance of a repeat since it is 1/1. There were a set of twins who got in too.

Actually - almost to the end , i was kindof rooting for No. 42 - cos the pple around me were all rooting for them also!! Kindof felt abit sad that they didnt manage to get in.

Thank you for all your well wishes. This is the best thing to know while sick in bed. Hubby wanted to go and attend the balloting but only managed to reach there when all the action just ended. Got a verbal confirmation from a teacher. When he called to tell me, I was like, are you sure, don't make a mistake! Thank God for answering our prayers. Looks like we'll soon be migrating to the parent support group forum!

Congrats! See you at PSG.

Roger too! :salute:

Hi everyone, yes my boy got in too! Was called around the middle... Praise the Lord. Sorry I didn't have time to report in coz had to go grocery shopping after that.

See you all at PSG and at orientation day!

Mine was in the LAST 7. Almost given up hope. Who got it later than me?Enjoy your celebration!

Hi BigFoot
Were you in the second row, corner seat with your hubby? I heard someone heave a huge sigh of relief and started to almost shed tears of joy...
I almost cried too upon hearing my son's name.
