Took AA back from campus at around 11.45am... "ponteng" from office so as to beat the traffic jam. The journey took me more than 1 1/2 hours to and fro....by the time I reached office, I was beat.
Took Andy from the bus station around 7.30pm... seeing him getting down from the bus was a blissful feeling... My sons have grown up leh... all staying away from their home. Really looking forward to seeing them coming home after a long break....(2 weeks, long or not?)
In the car, I asked Andy about the PTPTN loan (study loan given to students)....when and what to submit.... I was more anxious than him bec' the loan would be able to "lighten" the burden. It cost around 60K for his course.
"So....when are u submitting the documents for the PTPTN loan?" I asked him...
His reply shocked me... "I don't want to take the loan."
"HUH??? WHY??" My voice grew louder than normal, out of shockness and a bit of "panic"
"I don't want .... , no need to take loan" he continued..., my hands still on the steering wheel, I wanted to give him a piece of my mind, and at that moment, I noticed his cheeky grin....
"Hey.. u mean...u got IT?" my voice softened, prayerfully wishing his answer would he YES...
"Yes, yes, mum....I GOT IT!" HE LAUGHED......
Thank you, God, THANK GOD.......
He got the Scholarship for this course....a scholarship I didn't expect him to get bec' there are many others who have better results than him....
All thanks and praise to our Lord for His amazing grace upon us again and again....HE IS TRULY GREAT!!

God provides Claire. That is really a blessing. Congratulations to your son.
ReplyDeleteWow! Claire, now you nonid to scratch your head to pay for his fees. LOL... congrats to you and your family! =D
ReplyDeleteWell, i bet it's not the JPA (Public Service Dept) scholarship. Anyway, good to know he's got it. Say congratulations to him ok?
ReplyDeleteNow, make sure he studies hard. I certainly don't want him to waste funds the same way my students did. Though the money is "free", there's no excuse to take things lightly.
-Cheers-
Wow..this must be a very good news to you..praise Lord!!
ReplyDeleteyes...thank God for His goodness.. yes, hope he really appreciates it and studies hard to keep up with his results... otherwise, it will be wasted and me have to pay back the sum plus 10 percent interest...
ReplyDeleteThough it is only for tuition fees, it helps a lot knowing it is not a loan... now all i have to fork out is maintenance...hahaa.. maintaining him, feed him, give him lodging... etc etc...
