EEYER.this is seriously a pain in the ARSE. as a matter of fact, it seems like my grades are the average norm out there (comparatively with those from the top schools) and the worse part is, most of them who got the same grade as me applied for the same courses as i do!
WTF?
i swear that i will work triple-ly hard if i get into my desired course and get a 1st class honors for that. (uhm... maybe a second upper will do). =)
so please please please please (pray superly hard) let me get my desired course and make my dream of becoming a private/investment banker come true...
alright, gotta go for a quick run before meeting tracy and gang for dinner at The Central. will update soon but no promises!
see ya!
-my pet starfish- partar.
"eh partar, say hello to the uncles and aunties out there who are looking at you! dont be rude, you silly"

finally, after much deliberation and advice from my family as well as close relatives, i decided to give up SAT test for good.WHY??
reason being, i am not in the right mind to study now because my stamina in studying has long vanished into the thin thin air (ever since i sat for physics paper 1 last year?). and despite ploughing through the many many many super thick SAT guidebooks which i've borrowed, although useful, i still see no light in me practicing my guts out those MCQs for the verbal part.
so i was thinking to myself- if the purpose of me to do the SAT test is to prove everyone that my english standard is those "can-make-it" type, and looking at my current situation, it isnt promising at all. i am still flipping through the dictionary looking up meanings for almost every word mentioned in the text, what does this show? simply, i dont have the apt in english! you know? its depressing!
yes, this is one sweeping statement, you never try, you never know- you'll say. but whats the point? i have to go ns, and i dont have the heart to study, and and there are many factors which urges me to just let go of SAT. excuses, no! moreover, for each section, we are given 30 mins to complete everything- i took 1.5 hours. so in a month time, i dont think i CAN improve that much- so no point.
most of the advice i got from my family and close relatives is that they encourage me to give up as this long hiatus hardly comes by and that 100 bucks for that SAT paper can be easily earned back. and i think this is seriously TRUE. i dont have to push myself so hard whereby there are simpler pleasures in life that i can enjoy!
and after so much serious thinking, i shall take a long break, after all those work, all the worrying of my A level results previously and what not...
gimme some time.
i aint superman.
i need time to rest too.....

i feel like giving up SAT test in may.i regretted registering it in the very first place out of my folly.
and the worse thing is, there is no refund of money when i cancel my registration! what the fuck is that? (uhm actually money is secondary but i just dont have the stamina to mug my ass off !!! how to do well you tell me?)
sigh
Boonkiat, can you please think through a certain something for 10437289723 times before you do it? Thats so silly of you! i am so disappointed in you man...
anyway, let this be an expensive lesson learnt by me.
ciaos! gotta go back and study! =((((
P.S. i studied the wrong thing for the first time of my life for SAT- and it suck.
