So quickly, the march holidays flew past. wiat., why did i call it the holidays??? everyday i have to go for some school activity! This is so unfair. anyway, the "holidays" went past in a flash and the ONLY fun thing i did was to go watch dreamgirls with ian, his godbrother and konrad. that is just plain pathetic. another thing is, i had 2 scholarship interviews that week, one on monday and the other friday. the one of monday has a rather long wait. first wait, then do essay for 20 minutes..(like as if i can write anything), then wait again then go in for interview which is so quick its over before you know it and then wait AGAIN and finally a stupid mentality sorta test which is rather repetitive and annoying. but other than the weird drawn out process, everything went along ok. i even talked to some of the people there. But the one on friday was terrible. its for the MOE preU scholarship and i think i totally screwed it up. in fact, i think that the only reason i was called in was to let the interviewers reprimand me. coz the first thing i went in , they rushed me into my seat. and the first properly statement that she said to me was "we are all very puzzled". then after that she started on this whole freaking lecture on my CIP hours being only 4 hours and saying that other people have hundreds of hours accumulated in 4 years and then said that the scholarship is awarded to leaders and that means that they are not only accessed according tot heir academic performance but rather their involvement in other activities as well. anyway, i haf this feeling that she is implying that i am a lousy student adn totally unworthy of the scholarship. next, there is the innova JC principal there as well and she was grilling me about my phrasing in my personal statement. firstly its some phrase that i used that came out a little too strong and then its about a discussion of one of my weaknesses and how she said it sounded like as if " it is a badge of honour" and all the way they are either asking me to explain myself why my PDP involvement is abysmal or why i use certain phrases in my statement. next, they also asked normal questions like how has IP changed you and wad qualities do you haf that makes you suitable for this scholarship and also, i mentioned that i am not afraid to be different in my statement and then she questioned my about that as well. basically, i was totally stabbed a hundred times over and seriously, i tried REALLY hard to maintain a calm and smiling face when i am really freaking pissed and nervous at the same time. but hopefully i managed to give them relatively ok answers lah. another thing is, they kept cutting me when i was explaining so when i continued, it would look like as if i am rude and shaken by their interrogation when i am not. the last thing that they told me was that my statement has lots of room for improvement and that i wasnt really clear in my vision and aims and things like that and my expression of some ideas are inadequate and makes it come out wrong. anyway, after thanking them and letting them say thankyou byebye for at least 5 times, i went out and i think i looked traumatised to my schoolmates coz they were like "are you ok?". then after that i was cursing silently all the way to the MRT station. yeah. thats my holiday weekdays. on the weekends, 2 of my aunts flew in from hongkong to visit us. its really fun and exciting and happy because i totally neglected all the homework that i had to do to go out and play and eat. apparently, they tried loads of the local stuff le coz my mom brought them around while i rushed out my attachment wow file reflections. sadly, they left today and i din even get to say byebye coz i was stuck in the school. at least i had fun talking with them the night before till rather late which meant i woke up a really grouchy grumpy angry person and i went to school and isolated myself in the classroom and slept for about half an hour before interacting with other people. and then i had to watch the Zap aunty fight some war in the photocopying shop coz we were totally just blabbering out orders to her and she kena confused until cannot confused anymore. the Zap uncle got too stressed and went for a stroll to look at the little fishies in the tiny pond. HAHAHA thats what happens int he first few days of school.i do hope that i dun haf to go through that madhouse again tomorrow...and by the way, i am starting to feel stretched already. YAY celebration. i will snap in no time
