Well anyway, we had planned for Tubby to come over to learn to cook today, and then a couple of other classmates asked if they could come over to do some recording for a CD. I had a brilliant idea and so Tubby & I ended up cooking a simple lunch for them (: Guangmian, Yockteng, and Justin. (Not my Justin but my class Justin haha.)
Tubby's 1st time cooking, pretty much, and he wasn't too bad, except that watching him chop veggies made me feel like dying because he looked as though he was going to chop his fingers off. We made cream pasta, grilled fish, and frozen margaritas. Boys eat a lot and so I can't tell if they gobbled everything up because they genuinely liked the food (which they claimed) or whether they were just hungry.
The other boys went back to my room to continue their recording (Justin's voice is amazing and Yockteng is such a viola pro) while Tubby and I fussed around in the kitchen again, making peanut butter cookies! We kinda made them too big so they expanded and stuck together slightly and looked like baos. They were most unhealthy, seeing the mountains of peanut butter and sugar and butter that went into them! But I made the boys bring home all the cookies but one, so I'm safe bwahaha.
[edit] Aww, I'm so heartened because Justin just SMSed to thank me for being a good host! Beams. [/edit]
Tomorrow is the 15th, and I think Cornell's reply is going to arrive tomorrow but then I'm not sure because the site says "mid-December" which is very vague. Like I mentioned to Sinhui, my heart skips a beat and I nearly have cardiac arrest every time I see a new email in my inbox nowadays. Now you know the easiest way to send me into a coma. Hahaha.
Everyone seems to be expecting me to get accepted except for myself (or maybe they're all just being nice), and I'm terrified and I'm terrified and I'm terrified. It sucks to know that you have a tiny chance of getting it but at the same time also knowing that the likelihood is really AWFULLY small and you don't know whether to give up or to continue hoping.
Having said that, I realise I've been trying to stop hoping because I don't want to be so disappointed when the rejection comes. But on the other hand, I've never actually stopped hoping.
