not
Received a polite snail mail from The Arts House a few days ago :
Dear Mr Cheong,
Thank you for your participation and interest in the Golden Point Award 2007
I regret to inform you that your entry/entries has/have not been successful.
Thank you for your interest in the competition. We hope that blah blah...

The "not" is both in bold and underlined. Hmm, there goes the 15 bucks. Back to the drawing board. Or writing pad or keyboard. No regrets taking part though.
And all this means I can start posting my entries here. If I can just shake off this lethargy from this blogging break.
And by the way, the winners have been announced. Just a tiny report on the 6th December issue of The Straits Times. Wasn't sure if it was reported in the other language papers.
Congratulations to Mr. Ma Huaqi, a literature undergraduate from the University of Queensland, Australia, who won the English poetry prize. Oh, yes, congrats to the other winners too in the other language sections and categories.
You can read about it here though there's no excerpts from the winning entries.
