Hi preciousjam,


Yep! See you on Orientation Day! You know even though I had gotten through in 2B, I was so tensed! I kept checking KP and the MOE webiste all day, didn't do much at work at all! Guess I'll have to compensate for the last three days next week!

So when do you get the precious letter? Also which block are you in?

can someone enlighten me:

I was at chij till 4.30pm and was told that there were 26 applicants for within 1 km and 39 for 1-2km making a total of 65 for a vacancy of 63. then this guy withdrawed his daughter s application at the eleventh hour and thus made it 64 for 63. we were told that balloting will be conducted . but when i checked the moe website, the no of vacancy was changed to 64. so does it mean we dont have to ballot anymore??? I will be so thrilled!!! anyone know anything???
