What An Interview


Woke up at 5:50am. Arrived airport at 7am.
I was going to have an interview for HKU in KL today. And believe it or not, this was the first time I fly down to KL just with my mum!!!! And also with xinyi, my greatest competitor and accompany that day.

The time for waiting was enhanced by that talkative girl. First time I felt like giving up chatting with someone. She's like talk and talk and talk, non-stop for the whole day. Wondering how ml of saliva can her mouth contain? And she had just drunk one and a half bottle of water that day... =.= Impressive...

So glad that my brother came to greet us at LCCT KLIA. Or else we won't make it to KLCC but lost our way in that big city. Unsurprisingly, the Star edu fair in KLCC is bigger than in PISA. I was wondering how and what they used to build up those booths...

We caught HKU's booth early and they seemed like haven't prepared to greet us yet. I met a nice senior (a guy of course xD) who also came from Malaysia. He told me that he's also an A-Level student from Taylor. With results of AAB, he successfully entered this prestigious university. I really do hope I can be accepted as well... But it seems like a mission impossible to me as I'm just a super ordinary girl without any outstanding achievement compared to others, especially xy. TTT.TTT

Oh ya, I've walked through the entire hall and I can't see any university from Singapore. Too bad la...=(
And my dream uni, HKUST 's booth was so small until I nearly missed it. So cute la them.... Why don't they rent a bigger place since they're so rich? xD They were so passion to answer my question. Imagine 6 people surrounding me and listened to my poor English. Sobx... And of course we ended up our conversation with erm... ehem... and thank you... Haix =(

We have our lunch in a never-heard-before Taiwan restaurant. The quantity of each set meal was more than enough for our small tummy. I felt like puking when I have my last piece of chicken... And xy wasted her eggs (3 eggs in a set meal of hers xD)

After lunch, my brother left us and went back. So its our shopping time!!! Or I mean "shopping time"!!! =(
I really was exhausted although it was just 1pm. Maybe because its my nap time. Dizzy + headache + stomachache + nervous, so I was like lying on the sofa in the shop for the whole process and waiting for my mum and xy to enjoy their time shopping. Again, impressive on xy's shopping ability. And she's really not the one who is good in giving advices on choosing clothing. She kept asking me to buy a pair of high heels with sharp bright red colour. =.=

3 hours was like 3 years for me. Especially walking non-stop for N hours with high heels. But my situation was better than xy. Finally, we've made our way to the hall again. I was too blur and dizzy to nervous about the interview at that time. Totally a blank in my mind. We occupied a toilet (the whole toilet) and enjoy our time in their. Washing face, changing formal clothes...

And here comes the interview!!! I was fated to be on the same slot with xy. Haix... And we met a girl named Tricia who is so pro in debating. The interview was... erm... tough? I don't know. Just some self-introduction and too bad xy is the one before me. And imagine she has the same educational background as mine so what am I going to say when its my turn??? Haix... Group discussion-- Global Warming. Damn. I purposely left out this topic when doing my research since its such a common issue. But now... Haix again... And there goes xy and Tricia, talking non-stop ignoring others existence. And I was like trying to interrupt with "But...." "I think..."   But Tricia went on and on... Killing me with her speech. Damn again. So I can imagined what kinda comments the interviewer would gave me... Xy's was 9 out of 10. And mine? 5 perhaps? Or 3? (I've a nightmare that I get 5 marks only in this interview yesterday night. Haix...)

Our flight was at 9:55pm. So we had Marry Brown as dinner and exploited our time with watching MV using my brand new mp5 xD. It was quite touching for some MV...

11:30. Reached home. And I realized that I've wore my contact for 18 hours... New record for my eyes...

What a long article in my poor English. Well, what I could say is, Good Luck to everyone. The rate of success is just 5% for me. Nah... I don't wanna think about it anymore. Headache. Tomorrow school's gonna reopen. Hope I had a great last semester in INTI. Cheers!!!! =)
