Alright, time to brief you guys about the weekends which I've gone through. The happy thing is I went to Penang with my fellow friends in Kuching, except Ben who is an Australian/English. Things were fantastic especially with the amazing food choices that are available. We had a stay in the YMCA thing. Not bad about the service. Trying to stop the temptation of eating more could be one of the obstacle to overcome. Thank God that I'd been determined not to stuff myself with that much of stuff. This whole month is going to be quite tensed up as there are a lot more to do. English lectures, TOEFL, SAT, etc. Basically, there will be more mock exams on the different things we have never learned before in secondary school before. It would be something interesting to venture in.
Let's talk about my housemates and roommate. They are really special people. I did not get any of the study type housemates who would lock themselves up in the room and try to finish the thick book. Some are really talented, as in the music field. One of them sing really well, the other plays the guitar and piano really well and one more plays the drum. I felt quite left out but still I can sing. One is just good in his studies. Hopefully the challenges that are about to come wouldn't bring most of us down. Will continue to do my best as the lecturers have been urging us to study really hard for the first semester. Not to say that we can relax on the 2nd semester, but still we have to put in more effort that we did before.
Oh yeah, after coming back from Penang, I had this fever for like 3 days already!!!! Felt so lifeless in class, but am still able to pick up what the teachers say. There are more to be anticipated and challenges to face. I believe once we put our faith in God, He would guide us through every road or path we take. Till then my friends... miss you guys and the food in Kuching!!

Taylors University College
Finally I've reached Subang on the 5th. Pretty much settled in much still, not as good as before. Well, first of all, let's talk about the hostel they provided. It's newly built... But, the thing is, there is no microwave oven provided, the fridge is spoilt, no washing machine and small rooms that are available. Plus, the distance from the hostel to the campus is like 30-40 minutes walking distance. Taking a cab would cost around RM7-8 for one way. It's far not only from the campus but also from the KTM station and bus station. The only option we have is to take a bus or either a cab right outside the hostel. And, the bus comes at around 6.15am!! Which is extremely early and mostly packed with students from Taylor's as well. Not to mention the bus back is also the same! They offer 2 rounds of bus normally. They can squeeze the whole bus with multitudes of people. No kidding here, seriously... whole bus has no more space left. Until the extent that you have to stand on your feet which makes you tired especially during raining day when the traffic is seriously congested.
Let's hope that things will change for the better when school officially starts. Oh by the way, we're still having our induction program until the 5th August. Our orientation would be on the 6th while the class starts on the 10th. Forgot to mention that there is no TV!!! NO TV and no Wi-Fi!! Oh man... but they will only install it on the 15th which will be shared by so many units in the apartment. Let's pray for the connection that it will be fast. Am adapting well... hopefully can do better in studies. As for either Ivy Leagues or Competitive Universities application... I think i will only target for those which I'm capable of. Don't want to stress myself out that much. And will be going to Penang with Angela, Ben, Isaacn and Audrey or Amanda on this Saturday 3.00am. That's all. Bye
