I dropped maths..
I hate maths sooooo much I dropped it.
Just like that.
And in its place, I took economics. I really like the subjects I chose, but now I'm kinda worried, cuz people tell me that Math is important to get into a British University. However, the head of the A-Levels program here seems to think that my decision to drop maths is okay, and he seems pretty sure that lawyers don't need good math. So I think for now I'll stop worrying and listen to him.
I sure hope I don't regret.
Oh, another thing.. I'll be blogging mostly on Mondays, Wednesdays, and either Thursdays or Fridays cuz I have free periods in between classes and if I get hold of a computer, I'll blog. Can't play games on Faceboo, cuz for some reason the graphics won't work...
Ta!

The Next Alma Mater After High School
College is as previously mentioned...Overrated
(Maybe it's my depression on missing everyone talking)
Anyway, as mentioned by Rachie (who has in easier in some counts) Pros, Privileges and Profits are indeed myriad...while Disadvantages, Deprivations and Drawbacks rival them (again the missing everyone talking)
Pros, Privileges and Profits
1. As stated, the dress code is slightly more flexible. Why the choice of words? This is because the Pre U students in KDU are to wear FORMAL clothes.
Reason being, the School of Pre U Studies (that's not the real name btw) is breaking away from KDU...they're gonna have their own Board of Governors and be run on an International School (like the amohs) basis.
2. Then again, we have a real nice department head who tells us the only requirement is not to dress sloppily. The formal clothes only come in when governors visit (which will be pre-warned)
3. The hours we keep for lectures is better than rachel's..limits are 9am and 5pm, no earlier no later (doesn't count kk though)
4. As also stated, gadgets can be brought in at your own discretion, there's free Wi-Fi, they give you free 150 pages to print at the internet lab in a 6-month semester (4-month semesters get 100 free pages)
5. It's WAY CHEAP here..well..they have the full tuition waiver..originally I applied with my trial results and got the scholarship, 9A1s and above being the sole requirement.
Originally i was told the tuition waiver is only for 3 subjects, but the nice dept head told us later on that when SPM results come out and are good (9A1s or was it 9A+s), the full tuition waiver will apply to every single subject i take
After serious calculation, I realised it's 12k off with 3 subjects and 21k off with the 5 subjects i'm taking..O.O that's A LOT of money (disted is only 40% off which is like..6k? that is..if they DON"T do the 3 subjects thing)
Not to mention if you register on these two promo days you don't need to pay RM300 of registration and application fees (not a surprise people say KDU loses money in the pre u department)
Well whatever, that only applies for Jan intake, they got different scholarships for other intakes xD
6. The lecturers seem pretty good o.O well, haven't met all yet..Bio left xD they boast a lot bout their Pure Maths teacher, seeing as they guarantee 1 out of 3 people will get an A (hmm....) I find it strange though, there was this KDU student that got top in the WORLD for Accounting (check the papers recently and you might see whoever it was - I don't read papers much), however there seems to be fewer A Levels Arts students here compared to Science o.O PJ campus maybe?
7. As for KDU being a party college, that doesn't apply to MY class at least -.- they're all so QUIET..the words they say in class can be counted with my fingers (and a few toes maybe o.O)
8. They have real good kk stuff here o.O partly why I pick here instead of Disted (which has next to nothing) Like for example, they send you to do service at Adventist Hospital, clock 20 hours and you get a nice looking letter of appreciation for your CV xD and there's lots of community service organised by the many clubs and the Student Council
Gosh, I sound like a marketing person out to promote KDU -.-
Disadvantages, Deprivations and Drawbacks
1. NO ONE I KNOW IS HERE!! In my course at least...unless you consider Scott from lit -.-
That really sucks actually..and during orientation i somehow made friends with people who are from different courses and not mine..sheesh..had to make more during class (they're all so QUIET i dunno whether that helps or doesn't o.O)
2. I miss everyone (guess meep is coming in march so it helps u_u)
T.T
3. Formal dress code? Not so fun..good thing I have a sister to inherit TONS of formal stuff from..(there goes part of my new year clothes too) I have a variation fo rachel's problem...it's like..if you wear most of your clothes in college, there's not much difference in the clothes you wear when going out..(the cliche being: you can totally say you have nothing to wear and it would be partially true)
4. Takes a bit getting used to lecture hours AND eating lunch out everyday u_u (then again, it's not like I've never eaten lunch out since had to stay back at school so much) they give 1 hour lunch break only so no worries bout whiling away extra time..I have Fridays off but lectures on Saturday mornings o.O
5. A Levels is the most-textbook based course in Pre-U. I have one pile of books MORE than the length from my elbow to the tips of my fingers (if you're kelly, add a few extra inches too xD) -.- and THAT'S NOT EVEN TEXTBOOKS!! That's just the pile past year papers they give to us...(they give us a college diary too o.O [had to catch myself from saying school diary xD])
Everyday carry batu in my bag d -.- good thing i rented a joint locker with 3 other people..(the locker is pretty big but not exactly cheap..RM20 AND another RM20 for deposit and to ensure you take care of your locker hence the 3 other people sharing thing)
6. A Levels isn't exactly an easy course..haih..studeh studeh..after only 3 weeks of recuperating from SPM u_u AND is it SO UNUSUAL to take 5 subjects? makes me nervous wondering how hard can it be..seeing as I signed up my subjects on the 1st day and the lady who registers us (she's Malay and she speaks better Hokkien than me IN A BETTER ACCENT! no trace of Malay accent AT ALL [makes me feel so ashamed u_u])
Well..she didn't register me cause she wanted to know whether I was really serious or not o.O there's where i got a late invoice, paid late and didn't get any old textbooks u_u the older students leave their textbooks and we get to pick them up..sadly..they said this year's intake is a real big one so all I got was a measly Physics textbook which my lecturer told me is not a real textbook but can be used for reference cause it's been changed into a newer one...GAH!
7. Homework on the first day..not exactly fun..LOL the lecturer walked in, started teaching (no self introduction), made us laugh cause he asked a good question everyone answered stupidly, some on purpose (he was SO OBVIOUSLY hiding his laughter), and when requested for a self introduction, asked someone to take out their timetable (where his name is stated) and told us his name (in a way that makes me think he's saying Well...DUH! in his head)
Oh, and he gave us 20 questions of maths in a textbook none of us had at that time o.O good thing my bro had it and passed it down to me xD
Strangely, i kinda like him o.O
AND THE PURE MATHS TEACHER REMINDS ME OF MR OOI! He's those geniusy kind of people who are kinda cute and funny...he's taller though o.O he's the one KDU is so proud of..then again, I'd say our school has reason to be proud of Mr Ooi (or should I say had since he's at Union now u_u)
LOL..when he came in he explained Maths in such a way i understand WHY they complete the square to get maximum or minimum value in quadratic graphs o.O
Wait..this is a Pro not a Disadvantage..ah whatever
The End. i talk too much.

College Life
I think college is better than school in a way, but in other ways its kinda worse than school:
Reasons college is worse than school :
1. On some days I'm in college from 8am to 5pm.
2. On some days I finish at 6pm.
3. The breaks in between can be really long sometimes, and I have nothing to do... (Can't go home cuz its too far, can't drive to Queens... )
4. I have to juggle studying and working.
5. You think about the friends who are at home chilling while you are laboriously pouring over your books.. *stares at Sabs*
6. Since you can wear whatever you want, sometimes I wonder what to wear...
Reasons why college is better than school :
1. I love the subjects I chose.. They totally rock.
2. Since I chose mostly arts subjects, there are very few people in my class.
3. Ma'am Irene is teaching me... xD
4. Malaysian Studies is in English.. And so is Moral Ed.
5. Its so free, you can wear whatever you want and you can bring handphones to class.
6. You can use laptops/computers when you're free.
7. Lecturers are naice...
8. There are lifts in college. xD.. Shows how lazy I am...
9. Kelly is coming in in May.. I'll be her senior!! By a few months, of course...
So anyways, what are the rest of you doing? Sorry I haven't been keeping in touch more often...
I know Su is in KDU.. How is it SUsu?
Cheerios for now... I'm going to have to go to class in a bit.. Ta!

Obviously I haven't fulfilled my promise.
Therefore I shall do it now.
WHY SO MUCH HATE FOR HOBO HEI AND ESPECIALLY THE PURPLE JACKET? DDDD:

Driving incidents
Since I am kinda bored and this blog is so unattended and sad..I shall speak on driving incidents that befell me (NOTABLE driving incidents that I actually remember xD)
Kelly knows some of these but not all..and most people don't know these at all..it's not exactly a great topic of conversation xD
Incident 1
Not long after I passed my test..me dad suggested a test drive on the roads outside the house with him sitting next to me..so since I actually like driving I agree (not knowing the horror I'm subjecting myself to)
Imagine the scene..this is me the P driver..in a car considerably bigger than the normal kancil (then again..WHICH car isn't bigger than Kancil)..fyi it's a Peugeot 206 (WHICH BELONGS TO ME EVEN THOUGH IT'S MY DAD'S NAME IN PAPER WAHAHAHHAHHA)...and this is the more-than-10-years-mature-driver-dad trying to give advice and what I'd like to think as constructive criticism without end..I even wonder when he stops for breath -.-
The fruit of his labours: This tensed P driver, me bashes of the side mirror..well..the whole thing didn't fall off..the frame stayed intact..the glass mirror fell off and was hanging rather comically off the frame obviously having those spider cracks on it..
Here's the details:
1. Tensed P driver passes Indahwater Konsortium building.
2. Indahwater Konsortium building just happens to have a wooden sign standing outside saying INDAHWATER TURN IN HERE (something like that)
3. Tensed P driver does not see the sign
4. Tensed P driver's side mirror bashed the wooden sign and neatly breaks it into pieces (it's wood..probably can't stand all the steel from the admittedly small mirror)
5. After a stunned silence, more-than-10-years-mature-driver-dad immediately raises the already considerably high volume of his voiceebox
6. Tensed P driver decides firmly that
a) it was kinda cool (especially when the board smashed into pieces..yea shut up on the destructive tendencies please)
b) driving with more-than-10-years-mature-driver-dad is highly inadvisable
Consequences:
1. To replace the glass mirror in caused RM50
2. The mechanism which controls the mirror (the kind you can move the mirror from inside the car with those knob thingys near the hand brake)..well..that was irreversably damaged..the mirror could only move side to side and not up and down..not to mention the ONLY way to move the mirror is said mechanism
3. After a repeat incident at which the glass mirror again comically fell off when mum was driving (or so I'm told), dad decided to replace the whole mirror
4. It costed RM 800 (according to dad, THAT was old stock..newer stock will cost RM1000 @@)
5. I had to take driving lessons with a driving instructor (it's pretty expensive..RM80 for two hours u_u better than another mirror i guess)
Incident 2
Incident 2 was considerably less mellow than incident 1, my first ever 'accident'..
Again, the details:
1. P driver, with driving instructor sitting at the passenger seat (this is the one next to the driver's seat obviously), with sister sitting at the back cause taking lessons together is learning how to reverse park
2. Side plot: On my FIRST test drive, more-than-10-years-mature-driver-dad makes me do reverse parking which I have never done before and naturally did not do well in -.-
3. Back to incident 2, we were in this empty parking lot near the Turf Club where it looks like cars aren't the only things that had been parked here
4. Clue : there was horse manure scattered at intervals (they actually look like patches of mud...seems to have been there long enough to not stink AND/OR attract flies)
5. Instructor places 2 rocks at which I am supposed to park in between
6. It just HAPPENED to be right in front of a flattened patch of manure (slightly more peace of mind for me)
7. After successfully reversing in xDDDDDD, I reverse too much and..(no sound effect [couldn't be heard])
Sis: You reversed into the horse manure
Me: DDDDDDD=
(AND she HAD to tell my more-than-10-years-mature-driver-dad)
Incident 3
Well here was considerably more serious.
Similar to incident 1, more-than-10-years-mature-driver-dad was sitting at the passenger seat...as I said to my mum, things just SEEM to happen when he's sitting next to me -.-
Not having learned much from the disastrous fiasco involving the side mirror and the Indah water sign, more-than-10-years-mature-driver-dad does not desist from giving advice and constructive criticism...although he DID stop for breath this time xD I like to think he learned a little..
Details:
1. Less tensed P driver drives to Penang Club for this dinner we're supposed to be going to
2. Everything goes pretty well until we reach the parking lot
3. Dad is screamin bout the speed at which I drive (can't remember how fast it was, then again he complains I drive too slow at times)
4. Two people are standing more than 10 metres in front
5. Dad screams louder bout those people (WHO ARE MORE 10 METRES IN FRONT -.-), saying I'm gonna bang them
6. Tensed P driver steps hard on the pedal, the WRONG one..accelerating in front and stops in time
7. Two people are about 5 metres in front and not displaying any signs of panic (just shows how paranoid my dad was)
8. Park safely inside the club
9. Dad gets out of the car and gets screamed at by tensed P driver
10. NOW HE SEEMS TO REALISE HE'S THE CAUSE OF ME PANICKING AND STEPPING ON THE WRONG PEDAL -.-
11. I still wonder seeing as he forbids me to drive at night anymore (does he blame the night? Or did he actually realise it's partly his fault?)
12. Anyways, he shut up about the whole incident (he usually likes to cerita all my driving exploits to my mum IN FRONT OF ME MUCH TO MY DISGUST)
To all the learning drivers: No pressure xD
Kelly knows some of these but not all..and most people don't know these at all..it's not exactly a great topic of conversation xD

Details:
1. Less tensed P driver drives to Penang Club for this dinner we're supposed to be going to
2. Everything goes pretty well until we reach the parking lot
3. Dad is screamin bout the speed at which I drive (can't remember how fast it was, then again he complains I drive too slow at times)
4. Two people are standing more than 10 metres in front
5. Dad screams louder bout those people (WHO ARE MORE 10 METRES IN FRONT -.-), saying I'm gonna bang them
6. Tensed P driver steps hard on the pedal, the WRONG one..accelerating in front and stops in time
7. Two people are about 5 metres in front and not displaying any signs of panic (just shows how paranoid my dad was)
8. Park safely inside the club
9. Dad gets out of the car and gets screamed at by tensed P driver
10. NOW HE SEEMS TO REALISE HE'S THE CAUSE OF ME PANICKING AND STEPPING ON THE WRONG PEDAL -.-
11. I still wonder seeing as he forbids me to drive at night anymore (does he blame the night? Or did he actually realise it's partly his fault?)
12. Anyways, he shut up about the whole incident (he usually likes to cerita all my driving exploits to my mum IN FRONT OF ME MUCH TO MY DISGUST)
To all the learning drivers: No pressure xD
