Whee~ she got in to a prestigious uni!

The good news sank in only hours later and we couldn't stop smiling and feeling proud of her offer getting into the uni of her choice. It's rather unbelievable, as we would have thought being rejected by another uni which is a lesser ranking, this higher ranking one would be surely no hope. But, she made it in, and we would surely support her though we had to forego the idea of buying and moving into a landed property for the moment.

Ah... I suppose the empty nest would not be so bad, she will be just an hour's flight away and I could relax not having to worry about her safety at all. With just around 2 months' away, we are mentally preparing ourselves for the move. Feelings are so mixed, sometimes I would think this is the part where they really leave the home and just come back for holidays. Just like me la. 

However, seeing how tense sometimes things could be between parents and children, I always advocate kids should leave home and go out explore the world when they are at this age. It's better for all of us. And from there on, I hope the relationship between parents and children would be better and stronger that way.

It will be just my hubs and me soon! My coping mechanism is thinking the places we could go and some new stuffs we could do during weekends, how exciting!
