Finally, the tiring week of practicing had passed.
Had been practicing modern dance for a competition held by UNIMAS in conjunction with Convocation Day.
I don't have the guts to stand in front of a crowd. What more to dance sexily in front of them?
But today, I've managed to gather all my courage and stand in the middle of a crowd and do my thing. I'm impressed actually. Never thought I would have done it in my life :)
Although we've only won the consolation prize, but I personally think its an achievement for us cause we only had a few hour of practice in a week due to other commitments. There were other participants, whereby from their look, style, appearance and attitude I'm able to guess that they're not newbies in dance competition. Who knows, we might compete again in the following year and get ourselves a trophy home :D

Getting back to UNIMAS, lately I've been having a one to one talk with my professors and all of them are very encouraging and friendly. My EPP lecturer, Mr Jaya and my mentor, Ms Wong is ever willing to help me if I were facing problems. My physical chem lecturer, Mr Pang is a very eco-friendly man. He encourage us to send in assignments and tutorials online via Unimas e-learning page cause he hate to waste paper and tells us to maximize the internet facilities that we have today. My Analytical lecturer seemed to have difficulties in gathering his words to construct English sentence during lecture. Nevertheless, I understands what he's trying to deliver. Even if I don't, he explains to me in person.

Before I sat for SPM in 2009, My genius 4 flat cousin advised me over and over again to take up STPM before entering Uni.
I was very scared cause I knew I was nowhere near him and wanted to give up so badly in my upper six.
But he kept on reminding me that if I can pull it through, it's gonna be much easier when I'm in Uni later on. And, he's right.

One lecturer from TARC main branch I would like to thank is Mr Low. Thanks to him, I'm able to keep up with my lectures.
If it wasn't for him, I would have been so lost in Chemistry, not having a single clue on what my both lecturers are reading about.
They go right to the point without explaining how the theory works, as they assumed that we've learned it in pre-U (STPM / Matriks) and proceeds.

So, taking up Form 6 was never a bad choice cause I used to think it was.
I really want to thank the other great lecturers in TARC for providing me a solid foundation (although I did badly in STPM) before entering UNIMAS.

IF I were to enter Uni right after SPM, I would have struggled so badly.
SPM is nothing compare to whatever we're gonna learn in Uni.
Its just the very very fundamental basics that we've learned.
So straight A's student, stop feeling so proud for the piece of paper you have in hand.
Its nothing compared to what you'll be studying later on.

You'll understand this someday later, just like how I do.

After a rough week, I'm gonna reward myself by finishing 3 episode of Bones Season 7 :D

Till then.
