A Bit Too Long

Hello~ readers. I'm finally got my butt to sit down and start on my blog again.


 So sorry for those countless inactivity on my blog. Don't bother to scroll down to see my last post 'cause it's way back in February when i was waiting for my college approval. And good news! Got into college but i had to retake an exam which was difficult, doubt i could get a credit on it, i did my best but even my teacher said the paper was difficult.


 Anyways things are getting busier than i thought. Especially college. Even though there's only 4 subjects to handle the work load the school gives is what wears me off. There's homework, revision, surprise tests, quizzes; a mother-load. But it's all fine with me, it's way much better than to lay on the bed and look up at the ceiling and start questioning every existence. It's scary, and not healthy. 


College has been fun so far, made new friends...slowly learning them, their names, age, classes, "personality" hahaha. The subjects too have been fun, especially Psychology. A healthy way to learn people actually. Biology was good, my new tutor teaches in a fun way, with fun quizzes and tests in forms of crossword puzzles. English went pretty boring and slow in the beginning but when it comes to the essay writing, i just couldn't control myself! I keep on over writing! Hahaha such a bad habit. And as for Geography....i don't know, it seems i can never get the perfect answer with the perfect mark for the questions. Let's just hope things would go smooth up til the end.


 I did have my mind to be a little bit more active on the blog but there's time when you just get back home from school, you just flop on the bed like a boneless exhausted human being! And there's another time when i finally had the "Create a post" on the computer tab and all the ideas just drain out! Blank head is what was left. My mind doesn't even know which letter to type on first. I always wonder...why does ideas just disappear so fast but during showers, ideas just come right in like major sales in shops. 


Well, i want to make this as a challenge. I want to try if i could post on the blog at least once a week or twice maybe and more during some holidays. And another announcement, as for my story " Hidden Beneath The Smile " I would pause that story and think much further about the story line. But not to worry, i do have another story that is pending, i just need to arrange the story line a bit. And soon this announcement would be posted on http://www.thestorytellersseries.blogspot.com/ 


So, i hope what i'm planning to do will be fulfilled soon enough. Adios now, hope to blog  soon~ :)

College On Trail

Hello my sweet readers! I'm back and I have to say I'm sorry that it has been a while since I last blogged and I left off with a New Year rhyme to say good bye to 2010 and hello to 2011.

Yes, 2011! Well the year started good, surprisingly exciting as well. If I'm not mistaken, there was a post about starting college early and since I got selected to be one of the trail batches for college, I said to myself " Eh, what the heck. Might as well give it a try than spending another 2 months of holiday"

I know when you read that you must think I'm nuts trading in holidays for school. To be honest I was already bored and I mean really really really bored from the NOT even 1 month holiday. It's funny that during long holidays I tend to forget how to write. So, yes basically to avoid further forgetting simple studies I chose to enroll college to sharpen things up a bit. Get my head back to the game.

College so far is fun. And FYI the college I go to now is Meragang Sixth Form. Six form here is considered college. the first taste of college was awkward, you know the feeling that you get when go to another school. Yup, that was the feeling only maybe worse because during our trial time at college we have to wear out previous school uniform! I know, OMG! and I just realised that college here is not like the college in America or is it any closer to the high school there as well. There's no bullies trashing your lunch tray, no atomic wedggies only one thing that we have to becareful when it comes to seats at the canteen....


DO NOT DROP YOUR CHAIR OR MAKE A HAPPY BIRTHDAY SONG A FAIL... Or else expect a loud boo or woo from the seniors. It's a major embarrassment if it happened.


The subject Herr has a good selection. It's wise and so obvious that choosing a subject that is to your forte is essential. Take a subject and don't understand, don't bother to take it for A levels. Oh the classes! OMG! If segways are provided it would be a grand but NO. You got only 5 minutes to get from one class to another. The classes are far and if only you're lucky, your classes might be in the same wing of the building. And if you ever think you have time to go and let some load or water out in the toilet, don't bother it would be tough luck cause you won't have the minutes to reach to your next destination in time. Best way is to go during break or lunch. And if you ca't hold itkuch longer be sure to be in your class first that way the teaher would know you ain't escaping.


Oh there isnt much signal connection there as well, LOL. A way to stop using phones in class.


Well I guess that's it for now. I got to revise. Some teachers in this college give surprise tests.

The Trade In For Another Chapter

The whole year is coming to an end and as you can realize that my blog hasn't been much active this year but that is all coming to an end well for now. School work has made it's way to the teacher's desk, the exam papers are flown to Cambridge and soon to be burn down in a furnace after 3 months to leave space for the next batch ( i really wish the authorities would just give back the paper after they marked it. The purpose to learn from our mistakes is my reasoning).


Now taking out the Relax Card that I've been saving the whole year as a reward for a good job in finally passing through the exams phase. Recently I have been thinking and i am willing to trade in 1/3 of my Relax Card opportunities for the next stepping platform in life. The next stepping platform that basically having the grip upon the occupation for me in the later life. Yes, the trade in is for stepping on to the world and experiences of college from the world of high school. Though all would be dearly missed, the juniors, the teachers, the principal, the staffs, the facilities and of course the memories that we have engraved in our previous school (SM YSHHB ). This new chapter in life is what the exam was worth doing.


College. Wow...i just realized that HAHA . So Yup, college. Actually there isn't much for me to say about it. I'm nervous and the term have not even begun. Well, I kinda got accepted before the end of the year to Meragang  College ( Pusat Tingkatan Enam Meragang/ Meragang Sixth Form )....please readers i am clearly not trying to be vain here (if that's what you're thinking, well..i'm not). I'm just very thankful i could get into college.


Though i got through the registration phase, the subjects are what holding back my dream..well,  i guess my dream was crushed on the day i was given the "wake-up call"  for choosing the subject and where in the real world i would end up with. Being in the medical stream was my dream since i was young ( well i'm still young, come on 16 coming on to 17. That's not old. Back to when i was young-ER ), doctors, nurses, pharmacist. That dream is now crushed to fragments but those fragments what will become my hope to achieve. The thought of ending up in the medical stream is now out of my head and i seem lost. Maths was the one i'm lacking of. And it was Maths that hold me back from the walking down my dream. A career counselor from the college gave me an advice and an option to choose what subjects that i would be capable of. Maths, the one subject that he mention to almost all subjects, namely Chemistry, Physics and to careers, Doctors, Pharmacist, Nurse, Engineers. Maths. I love it, but IT hates me. During exams, i stumble onto mistakes but for revisions it seems an average can-do subject. Maybe Maths is not in my blood, but as so i wish it would.


Over all i would like to thank the career counsellor for showing me the truth of how maths is so important, the advice he gives changed my so to speak attitude towards subjects =)


Despite the Maths problem, the subject that i will be taking by starting for the new term is. Biology, Geography, Psychology, Business and English (which is a compulsory, which i will surely enjoy =) ). These subjects are for the start-off term. And after i receive my Oct/Nov O'level results and accepted into the college again, teachers recommend to drop off one of the subjects that seems not to my capabilities. So, at the end, only 4 subjects are to go on for the exams of A'levels. Hopefully  it will all go well. Especially for Biology, Psychology and English those must be my favourite subjects and i'm willing to excel in it.


Allah the Almighty please be with me!


So, long story short. I'm trading in 1/3 of my O'level holidays for start-off college year. Some students may think it's crazy to start school in January when it's supposed to be a holiday..(Oh No, my birthday's in January..school..aww mahn=/ ) and some may say " relax relax". I think i have done a lot of relaxing time already. 3 days relaxation is enough for me, let alone 3 months??  My fingers won't know how to write in that time period! Starting college early has it's advantages, early start and by the time March enters with new students that subject will be scanned through again. But to every advantage there's a disadvantage. The catch to going into college in January, that when the results are out in Feb the staffs will look through the results and if you made the requirements, no change is needed. But when it is not made with the requirements, it's down back to high school even if you entered the college in January *GULP* i know.



*sigh* I  CAN'T WAIT FOR STATIONERY SHOPPING!!!!!!!
