I Tweet A Lot

I was on blog-hiatus for a while, wonder why?

It has been three weeks since classes started and boy, let me tell you, keeping up with blogging.....is a pain in the butt. As of right now, I've been juggling a couple of things as per below :

  • SAT exam - Which will fall on October 1st and we're doing it in Penang. PENANG! Did you hear me, Penang ^%^&T&%E54e45!!! This will be our little first (perhaps the only?) trip. 
  • TOEFL exam - Born and breed in a non-English speaking country (no matter how fluent you are in English) is not a hallmark. We need to take this English Proficiency test.
  • Universities Applications - United States (being the United States) requires us to fill up the Common Apps accounts, get teachers' evaluations, list of courseworks, and endless of supplements essays! Getting in is the hardest part!
  • Assignments - On top of those mentioned above, regular classes should be attended and assignments are expected to be handed on time. 
  • Keeping up with extra activities - This, is probably, the most exciting part of the US education system. They want you to participate in the extra activites and this aspect will be greatly considered in your application!
  • Quizzes, and being a teacher's pet - The former is crucial as we're expected to gain an average CGPA of 3.5 for this semester. The latter is something I'm working on.
  • NEW FRIENDS - Joy to the world in making new friends! Not to mention, being in a University-College where the students comprised of a wide diversity of races.
Okay, that was a quick blog post. I am now off to study. Like a nerd I am.
