the longest essay i've ever wrote abt me

mmm... where to start. a lot had happen these few days.

Monday- i went to retake the driving test i failed. Pass! this time it's like a piece of cake despite the fact that i'm much more calmer than the last time. Met one more friend there, teck kian.

Wednesday- went to limkokwing university for the star edu fund interview. strangely it's just 30 minutes drive from our home. waited 1 hour in the hall, they weren't puncture. We sat there and observe, 90% of the student there are from oversea.

So, i finally got called in. there's 3 person in the room, 2 ladies and 1 guy who brought me in. the ladies asked me about yee yen, yee leng and wan cheng. what are they studying and are they under any scholarships. i told them the truth about yy and yl but lied about wc, "she's studying in UTAR but no scholarships". (my dad told me to say that) one of the ladies ask me when was the photo taken (the one i gave on the application form), "form 2. i didn't change much what, right?"i said. "now, you look more mature." she replied. "... ..." they start checking out my file of certs and 2 sketch books which i brought along. I turned a few pages and stop. I told them that the ones in front are not good, don't look. they giggled, then took the books, open the pages that i said weren't good. Haiz... i shared the book with my siblings ma... Now come to think of it, they're not good. I told them that it's very hard for me to translate something in my mind onto a piece of paper, that's why i still have a lot more to learn. I need the basics of art in the foundation course. the other lady ask me why i choose science stream in secondary school and why am i changing to art. "I've read an article in Star that said universities prefer science student than art. Besides, I'd like to get the basics of science in case I change my mind. Changing to art is because I think art is my strength and my interest, plus I hate science. " She said, "you hate science but still can get good result, very good". They also asked me how do i come to know about the excellence in limkokwing's school of design and then applied for this scholarship. I answered, "there's a gang of art friends in my school. and while we were discussing where to study, they all said that one academy and limkokwing are the best ones". "so, which one you think is the better one?" I answered limkokwing. well, that's a bit hypocrite. I stopped from that word and didn't elaborate cause that's not honorsly what i think. according to the interviewers, this scholarship doesn't allow candidates to change the degree to persue and they'll be informing the successful candidates by call a week later.

I've not change my mind, still holding to KBU. But good experience though attending the interview.

Wednesday- went to violin lesson. my teacher gave me a hard training for one of the exam pieces. hooh~ stress! he offered me a job. said there's another music school in alam damai (which he also work there) is hiring violin teacher to teach some beginners. he asked me if i can give my number to that school, to Amy (yes, it's her from yamaha school). Amy called me on Wednesday night after my lesson, and we're meeting by Friday noon. Looks like she's desperate to hire a teacher, grade 5 punya pelajar pun mau... Wan Teng says, I am the only one among the siblings who gets job offers even before graduating from secondary school. So, some how I have to thank my violin teacher, Mr Hong.

Thursday- after watching the show, Big ideas for a small planet, I started thinking about a lot of green ideas. I think me being so into go-green is affecting my family (except pa). So, as usual, I shared the stuffs i watched on the show today with wan teng. Have you ever think that walking can one day contribute to the electricity generation? today, the show showcased an invention. these electric generators are under the floors we walk everyday. when pressure is applied on that floor, a piece of metal under the floor piece will bend and generates electricity. 10 minutes of experiment in the park, the electricity generated is 3000 watt, which is enough to support over 40 PC's. but this invention has not been use yet because it's not perfectly engineered today.

tonight, I open the doors and some windows, glass doors at home (which usually are closed by 7pm) to let in cool air from outside the house. turns out, the room felt cooler and a fan were turned off, the other were turn down from 4 to 2. Imagine that on a room with air conditioner. Just like what the show said, a lot of energy are thrown away just like that because the house structure or electrical appliances are not properly design, or simply out of date ...

I've read an article in the newspaper. found out about this webside, recycleandreward.my. it's a company that picks up recycleable items from your house, you get to collect points and redeem some cool stuffs like nintendo wii, camera to cash vouchers. rm10 only is required to get the service for a lifetime unless the company gulung tikar la. Think it's available all around semenanjung. it's great, planning to tell my parents and persuade them to do it for mother nature.^^

strangely, i'm not good in communicating but i'm good in writing. yen and mi says i'm able to express the meaning of something with only some simple and short sentences. maybe that's why yleng and wteng calls me 'weirdo'.. haha

I've had my hair cut short yesterday. back to the original length but not nice.. next time, i'll try another salon .
