The journey up was not easy, but it is worth it. :) Pinnacles of Mt. Api, Mulu National Park, Malaysia

Note to self:

To myself, 
After wandering at all the career fair and education fair.
After thinking about what to take over and over again.
After weeks of google-ing and internet researches. 
After all and all,
I've finally make up my mind, 
And chose the Pre University course desired.

And the final answer to all the questions friends/relatives/parents posed to me asking what's next after SPM will be Australian Matriculation (AUSMAT) I know many would ask me to go for A-Levels but I do have my reasons why I opt to do so. Well, there are a many, but I've narrowed it down to a few. 

Okay, one of the main reason I chose Ausmat is it is one of the fastest track to universities. As I do not plan for a direct entry into Universities in UK (though I really want to but financially I'm stuck :( so yeah)  Ausmat is just a 11 month course and it comprises a 50-50 internal and external assessment, which is 50% coursework and 50% exams. In my opinion, this is why Ausmat stands out more than A-Levels. The 50% Coursework might (will) give me an opportunity to learn how to socialise with others, for to me is what the real world looks like. I couldn't and wouldn't want myself  being all anti-social. Okay maybe not anti-social, just maybe not so good at communicating with others.

And why I chose Sunway College? Hmmmm It's definitely because It's very near to Monash University (where my elder sister study) and we can car pool together. AND, Sunway College has been quite a reputable college, so there's no need to fret about the pre-u taken is not recognised. And only Sunway College (KL Campus) Ausmat students are entitled to a Curtin University Scholarship in Perth :) And so on so forth...

So, college has started about a month. Everything is well and fine. No financial issues for now. But my fingers are crossed. :X Really hope to get a 9A+ in SPM  in order to get a full scholarship for Pre-U. This is still bugging me, quite often :/ 

Besides those, college is fun. Everything is so enjoyable. I'm going for commerce, though I'm from a pure science stream knowledge base student. What I am learning now, I'm enjoying it very much! I'm so glad that I do not have to face Chemistry any more, like seriously! I'm actually very grateful and thankful that I am able to pursue what I have interest in. 

Oh and I have been joining the college's CF! Like finally huh?! I went with Desmond before the week for CNY. So glad that he told me where the place is if not I could've been late and lost out there XD It's nice but a lil too cold, probably I've stayed in the library for too long. Anyway, all has been well. Just hoping to join more clubs (but not to many) and have fun before university life begins. 

About Universities. Money is a big issue. Idk, yet. It still all depends on my results and so on so forth. So that shall be discussed or rather I say, concluded later. 

Striving hard for a better future! 
Promised myself to achieve my new year resolutions, and one of it is ATAR 95. So I will be working my ass off this year! Please don't call me a nerd/geek, if you were in my shoes you would do the same.
