Study at Taylor on Saturday

Yesterday, it was my first time going to Taylor's College to do my revision.
I went there early at 8am as I thought the library will open at its usual time. Then I realized it was actually opened at 9.00am on Saturday. Being no where to go, I sat on a table outside the cafeteria, doing my maths for an hour while waiting for the library to open. Aah, It was hot there!

At 9am, the library finally opened. I met Swee Cheng when I was walking to the library. So we did our revision together. Not too mention I met Jon at the library too, she is so hardworking these days, staying at the library everyday until 9.oopm. Hmm......too bad I have to drive Wan Ting home, or else I would really try to do like her.

After some hours, Seo and Lin Fong came too. We (Swee Cheng, Lin Fong, Seo, Guo Seng and me) had lunch together at Asia Cafe. There, I met Teh, a friend of Seo. Woah, he is really an excellent student! He talked a lots about his studies, say how he has prepared to score As in this mid year exam and scoring B is considered a failure to him. He also talked about his rival, I think this is a way to motivate himself to study harder. Although I met quite a lot of excellent people in my life (eg: my brother, Seo, etc.), he is a different kind of assertive person which I never meet before.

I felt ashamed of myself after listened to his "speech". I never bother to compete with others and I don't have such passion to study. To tell the truth, I think I never really try my best in exams before. I'm glad I met him. That day, he gives me a great motivation to study. The way he speak really give strength to people. Oh, did I mention he can speak English very well?
I want to become people like him.

Oh, back to topic! So after lunch, we went back to study at the study room (because the library only opened until 1pm). I was still doing my Maths past year papers and Teh was friendly enough to teach me. It was a great help to me.

Finally, I went home at 3.30pm. I was satisfied for that day as I have learnt a lots. Group study is really a good way to study. Not only we can ask and teach each other, it can also give us motivation to study. At home, there are too many distraction and I feel lonely locking myself in a room to study. I enjoy studying with my friends and I think I should continue having group study afterward.

First time to Placement Center

1st time went to Placement Center with Ling Fong and Yee Huern after finishing our lesson today. I wanted to go there a long time ago already, but don't know what to ask so I always just passed by the office.

So this afternoon when we went in and asked for information of universities, there was a really nice female officer invited us to sit down to consult us about all these things. Ling Fong and Yee Huern both wanted to study medicine while I wanted to study veterinary science. The officer told me that there are only 5 university that have this course. The entry requirement is really high, I felt a bit depress and lost after listened to her explanation. And sometimes I don't even know what she was talking about, hehe......

At last, before leaving I got some books about universities in Australia. Oh, I wish I can study University of Melbourne so that I can live in the same place with my sister there which is now studying pharmacy at University of Monash.
