This is a very random blog. While tinkering my broken grammar, I was exposed to some articles which really caught my attention. These few articles are about things I really passionate about which others might regard them as boring: One Piece (boring pirate story), Arts (boring essays without words) and Biology (boring subjects with ONLY memorization)
I come to Subang for some reasons and purposes. First, of course it is the main reason, is I need to retake my SAT 1. Apparently my current score is a little bit too uncompetitive, and I felt regret of not putting more efforts into this examination. I was jealous of Xavier who is really good in his command of English. Somebody expect me to be good at English, but as far as i can see, I am not good enough to face the challenges in US.
Secondly, I miss my friends in Taylors'. They had just finished their AS examination and I seriously want to meet them, hang out with them and just enjoy my reminiscence of my memories. They need to know that INTEC people don't really act like how they think they should be.
Besides, I need to get the recommendation letters from a lecturer in Taylors', I think he had forgotten my request already, and I need to remind him again before I leave here.
Last, I need to get back a book I promised to bring back for Andrew, I know I had hurt his feeling by not bringing back his book, so I will still keep the promise. Thanks a lot for his help during my study in INtec, sometimes you don't really need somebody who are cleverer than you to help you out, you just need a true friend who savors your relationship to help you out.
However, this morning, somethings happen... ... again... ... (errr, my life is always full of surprises, is it??)
Yayasan Kuching phoned me that I was awarded Anugerah Ketua Menteri Sarawak, I think so, and informed that I need to go for a prize giving ceremony held in Kuching on 15th dec. All the transportation and accommodations are inclusive in the fares supported by the yayasan. But, there is a problem! I had a camp on 16th dec, and it is a life game I long anticipated to go for. Then, there is the MIT EC who emailed me that he is available on 3rd and 9th dec for an interview. It overlapped either my holiday in Sarawak and intervene my preparation for SAT1.
I was aghast, two different things overlap my life again. I was always given a choice, a decision to make between two different things, which are both equally important to me, in my life.
I was given a choice when I was 17, either a chance to go debate with 100% chance to win the whole competition or a friendship I enjoy having in my life. I chose the later, and the aftermath isn't what I longing for. A relationship full of charlatan and pretentious conversation has plagued my life for more than a year. The ramification was deadly, and I refuse to make any extrapolation regarding this tragic story.
Since then, I was afraid of making a choice, I am scared of listening to others' advice. I was just... ... scared.
It could be a great chance for me to meet up the EC from MIT, it could be also a great chance to ruin my only chance of showing my very best to the EC.
Weird, since when has Akira interested in MIT. He keeps talking about his contempt for the geeky lifestyle in MIT and the extraordinary workload that he has to face if he is admitted. He is definitely not that type of guy that everyone expect to exist in MIT.
The idea of having both life science and human technology integrate and intervene together strikes me. I want to do something like that. All those unrealistic ideas of mine are quite widely accepted in MIT though! Maybe, just maybe. There is a chance. Who knows??
I think I will just try out for the interview, while getting myself a nice conversation with my EC. As long as I am confident in God, there isn't much difference for a week of preparation. I think so. Besides, I need to come back once more time in order to fully complete my dossier as I haven't actually complete my common application essays.
Having faith in God isn't something that you keep putting aside of your mouth, it is a practice which seldom people can truly hold on to, and I am still learning it.
Ah, Subang, the starting point of my new adventure for education. One piece, Tree, Bioethics, Friendship, Critical Thinking, Unorthodox idea... ... it all came from here, it is continuing in Shah Alam, and it will be brought to US.
