Offered scholarship to study Ph.D.

I just received a letter today from School of Computing, NUS, offering me a scholarship to study Ph.D. Well... It's not like they'll buy over my bond from DBS, or pay me better than DBS. And after my experience with HYP, I really don't think I'm into research.

Well... I guess I'm just not interested in research. Haha. And since I'm bonded to DBS, if I take up the Ph.D. scholarship, I'll have to break my bond, meaning a hefty sum of money as well.

Hopefully banking will pay better than doing research/being a prof! Getting a Ph.D. in Information Systems is not really that useful in banking anyway. 4 years of my life studying is quite a long time. If I wasn't on the DBS scholarship, I think I just might have taken up this Ph.D. scholarship actually.
