A Demanded Update!!! ^_^

Hey, bloggers!!! It has been a week since the very last time i written my last post, and i'm sorry for neglected everyone, dearest blog, and the long hiatus. Since i am being demanded/ordered by starlover and baby tiger, i have to update this blog. Actually, i have encountered lots of events throughout this whole week, but yet i don't have the mood to write them down, albeit i do really wish to. I don't know what had happened to me, maybe i have being too busy for these few days, trying my best to finish essays, resume and scholarships' applications.

On the past 22 March, I found out that PNB Overseas Scholarships is actually opened to non-Bumiputra starting from this year onward due to the result of 1Malaysia policy. Before this, I printed out the application form but didn't fill it as from my friends' mouth, i knew it was only opened to Bumiputra. Hence, i was not really rush to applying it, but since my mom kept on pestering me to fill up the form, i have to fill in the application form in the end. After filling up the form, on the very next day, which was on 22 March itself, my mom called to PNB Education Department to make sure that it was only eligible to Bumiputra. Out of her expectation, the officer informed my mom, saying that it is opened to Non-Bumiputra as well this year. At the mean time, my dad brought my certificates to his office, to be certified by his boss. Luckily, on 23 March, which was the due date of the scholarship, my mom sent the application forms alongside with certified certificates and documents to the PNB Tower in KL. Thanks God, good luck in everyone who's applying for this scholarship. =)

p/s: I have lots more to tell, but in the next post, okay? It's 1.38am now by the way, have to get some nice sleep as i need to wake up early in the morning tomorrow, and get myself busy with another hectic scholarship's application (Shell Scholarship). >.<

2 Weeks Experiences in The New Class! =)

Listening to: The more I seek You - Kari Jobe It's been two weeks since I joined the new class! Most, if not all, of my new classmates are quite friendly to me, gratefully! Thank God for that! Within the first few days I've recognised and remembered most of my classmates' names! =p Okay to be frank, I was trying to memorise. That's why I could remember their names fast, and blend into their group easily? =) How? Facebook does the trick! Adding someone into your friend list in Facebook will definitely improve your ability to remember names. Well it works for me, at least! =p Okay why am I keep writing posts about PE1? I don't know, just want to share my thoughts with everyone, how I spend my time in the new class and so on. During break time I tend to hang out with a group of new friends, and a large portion of them were from Catholic High School, PJ. Haha I was supposed to go there, but I didn't. My younger sister did, anyway. Most of them tend ...

Advices and information from Senior Recommer, Smilehoe! ^_^

Here is the reply of Smilehoe, a senior Recommer to me due to my dilemma at my previous post, and I think it is worthwhile for me to post it up here to be shared with everyone due to its great and effective information to me. He's an actuarial student in UM(University of Malaya) and here it goes:  Hi Nicholasng925, First of all, I think that the effort you put in considering and researching on actuarial science is impressive. I didn't know as much as you do while I was at your place. I'm not an engineering student so my advice would be lopsided, do take it at face value and make your own judgement.   We will talk about a few scenarios, Case 1,  No A-levels, I think alternatives are pretty limited. Form 6, A-levels or other Pre-U courses at more affordable institutions. You can again aim towards Act.Sc. while doing those courses. Case 2, A-levels or other Pre-U, but no scholarship for overseas degree As you have mentioned, NTU and NUS are good alternative...

The Greatest Rejection Ever!!! T_T

Upon rejected by a dozen of scholarships institutions, I was highly hoping at the very common scholarship that everyone would most likely to apply for - JPA. Obviously, there was a stiff competition among the excellent students nationwide, since JPA is only capable of offering 1500 places to those students for overseas program. Probably there are tonnes of excellent students this batch who scored lots of A+, but instead of 2000 places offered for the previous years, JPA reduced the number to 1500. Due to economics recession maybe, and we as the students, are the major victims. Lots of my friends who actually scored way better than me failed to get the scholarships, including me of course. Also, the introduction of A+ to the students end of last year shocked and intimidated almost every SPM'09 student, cause they were not given enough time to prepare adequately to score A+, which technically means above 90% marks. Personally, I was really down and depressed over the rejection of J...
