ACCION!

this is the presentation the main com did for us. it was super funny. laugh like MAD! :) the BEST part of camp. woohoo!

anyway im back from two days of lonnggggg orientation. get to meet my classmates. 24 of them in total. it was not as bad as i imagined in to be lah. made friends with Wan fen, a girl who is pretty small in size. overall was okay lah. pretty quiet classmates but i believe we will be bonded and close. received my schedule for school today and handbook and had a taste of what lecture will be like. pretty interesting exposure. anyhow, we will be with our class for one year!

ou lecturer told us that A FOURTH UNIVERSITY WILL BE COMING UP AND THEY WILL BE RECEIVING THEIR FIRST BATCH OF STUDENTS IN YEAR 2011! its just so timely. its the year that miracle, faith, james, rebec, julian, jeffrey, russel and I will graduate! God is just so good isnt he?

a new university means that the number of students they will accept is largely expanded and thus the number of poly grad who have the interest to further their studies have a greater chance to do so locally :) our lecturer suggested to us that we should consider either of this paths now that we are in this course. take up diploma in marketing in year two then go to the uni and study finance, or take up diploma in business and study hospitality in uni.

cause either of this would make us very 'valuable' in the market because both are a very good combination and brings us a class above the rest. in fact above those that simply take accounting or banking kind of thing. i do not know to what extend its true. my initial plan was to take up business in year two and chose finance as one of the elective cause its what im interested in. however, having heard what the lecturer considered, taking finance in university arent a bad idea too. whatever it is, i reckon i will come to a conclusion after i have come into contact with all the electives in year one and would have explored all the subjects and see what i truly enjoy.

so hitherto, my plans are still to go to the university. and of course to be the top 10% of the whole cohort :) apparently in business, the number of students amount to 1730 students and business studies group is in high demand. there is like 550 students in BSG. there are still many people wanting to appeal into our course with grades like 10 and below and my oh my. my grade was like 15? dont know if i should cry with the rest or stand at a corner and grin :P

some classes do not have to go to school on certain days lah. im the unfortunate one :( met our care teacher today. so as of now, im an ADULT! eek. totally abhor it.

but all in all, i can truly agree with what mentor have been teaching us. that one must have a goal. with a goal in mind, we are more concentrated and focused. i never comprehended what she meant until when i enter poly. in the past i never put the lesson to use because im already on the track mid way. but now that poly is about to start, i already had my goals in mind. somehow things dont distract me that easily now. i knew what i want and this makes things so much easier for me. things that does not help me draw closer to my goal is left untouched. one of such included work. i was about to get a job and was pretty sure i can get it. but it involves my time and getting home late which means sleeping late and sleeping through my lectures the next day. it really isnt worth it AT ALL. so i decided to just leave it. MONEY does mean 'something' to me. to all girls in general. who wouldnt want more money to shop and doll ourselves up, to get hold of the latest gadgets, to spend on entertainments like movies. but oh well, i guess i just have to sacrifice all this. afterall its top 10% im aiming. ( even more :P )
