Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind.

daily rantings Saturday, March 14, 2009 TGIF! this week has been insane even with a holiday in the middle of the week. slept pretty late on wed and thurs rushing homework and scholarship application. good thing its finally done. got my letter from bates after school. he didnt seal it so i managed to read what he wrote. =) im probably not supposed to do that but whatever. he checked off excellent for all. but his letter was sweet though. didnt expect him to write stuff like that. now, hopefully i get certain scholarships which im aiming for. theres definitely gonna be lots of competition so hopefully i ll just get at least one. =) lots of stuff to do during this weekend. two tests next week doesnt help. chemistry lab test, lap report, pre lab, practice problems for lecture, math test on thurs, physics webassign, lab report and lots lots more. sigh. oh yes, art test due sunday and i havent studied. crap crap crap. ok i should stop on this topic since im starting to stress again and i do not deserve that on a friday night. i have a sudden strong strong urge to want to go to the texas international convention but im afraid no one will be going. i have to email her soon too. sigh. wait, didnt i say i ll stop stressing. off to happier topics... i cant think of one now. my life revolves around school now thats why. that makes perfect sense. oh wells, off to bed? uc davis acceptance Friday, March 13, 2009 Dear Jessica,Congratulations!

"Congratulation darling this is the first step you achieved, i have no idea what pcs is. but tiffany sounds awesome enough. muahaha. see the pressure mounting now. mom was no better with adding the pressure. "Hi Jess, i wanna scream. good thing there's still one month. ok it has its plus and minuses. one month and 19 days. maybe a day or two earlier since davis was early. i expected to know on march 16 since that was what the previous email said. it was funny. we ended physics lab and went backt to mesa to rot or idle time away. and marcus got an email via phone so he was first to know that davis sent an acceptance email for him. so another guy checked his email and he shouted so i checked my email and we shouted and somebody else did the same. so it was kinda like a chain reaction. lol. it was happy happy moment especially after a long long day. i m sure it'll be worse when people start getting news from cal. its gonna be more tense. oh wells. a couple of months more till i graduate. i dont know how i'll feel. but i shant worry about tat now. for now, or this minute rather, i have my personal statement for scholarships due. havent started on it and its due tomorrow. great. just great. bates hadnt finished my letter of rec too anyways. hopefully case sent hers in already. shes the only special one. haha. we were waiting outside her office to ask her and someone was in there asking about class stuff so we waited outside. after a while, another girl came and then leach my math prof came. so we sorta had a line forming. see how "popular" she is. lol. fine. busy. so jack passed her his thingy first and as usual, her sarcasm began. she was like a party of 12 came just to pass her a piece of paper. haha. the girl and leach left so it was just us 3 there. she said she'd sent it in for us so hopefully she did. really hoping that i ll get some scholarships esp the smt one. think i have a pretty good chance? we ll see. alright off to finish homework now. im feeling optimistic fo r now....
bloated Monday, March 09, 2009 .jpg) this is how i want to look like right now. hahahaha. i dont know what's gotten into me today but i kept eating. no seriously from the time i got up till now. had frosted flakes cereal and then a lil bit of candied apple. its just apple coated with chocolate and caramel. joyce got it yesterday from santa cruz. its those sweet treats that u get at carnivals and fairs. aww. miss those days. we never hang out anymore. anyway back to the point. had a hi chew tropical paradize flavored sweet while surfing the net. we had our netbooks battling it out. lol. eee pc vs aspire one. lol. went to finish up my chemistry. halfway through, uncle came back with lunch. had a lil bit of everything. fried beef hor fun, curry flavored vemicilli, century egg plus pork porridge. all in a span of 3 hours. went back to finish up my homework. snacked a lot. had some snacks that joyce brought back, green tea kit kat. then dinner at 6pm. costco pizzaaa 3 slices. mind you thats a lot. a slice is equal to lets see, a plate? and then haagen daaz icecream bar. coffee with almonds. i think thats all my stomach can take too night. i dont know if its stress or what cos i cant seem to stop eating. but then again, this week is preetty relaxing compared to last week. not much tests this week i think. plus wed is a holiday. soo loooking forward to it. can finally sleep in peacefully since everyone will be at school or work. still, it'll probably be a time to catch up with homework and studies. all the same. i hate springing forward. stupid daylight savings. in case youre wondering, i just literally lost an hour . instead of being 6.30pm now, its 7.30pm. this happens on the second sunday of march yearly. supposedly suppose to save energy but i believe thats crap. at least im looking forward to fall now. we fall back one hour again. so literally gain one hour. thats the greatest. didnt people say we shouldnt play with time? yet this is whats going on. lol. ok im just ranting away. haha. spring forward, fall back. i just knew this yesterday. makes perfect sense. alright, think i should go now. jsut finished backing up my lappy using the maxtor one touch mini dad got me. still have to update my ipod. dont think i ll do it today though. i dont know how to fill up 16GB. lol. i want to see my dog again! hes sooo lazy im telling people he cant even sit up for 30 seconds seriously.
lazy day Sunday, March 08, 2009 i love having a lazy laidback day. only to realize in the late afternoon that i have more stuff that needs to be done than i thought there was. i totaly forgot about chemistry but thats all good. anyways, im bloggin only because im craving for an iced caramel macchiato now. lol. and perhaps some frozen yoghurt too. i need to go to orange tree. its a yoghurt heaven. and its only at tanforan. maybe i ll go out on wed since i have no school. its flex day a day where the professors attend workshops. kinda weird thinking about it but why not since it gives us a day off. i would gladly take it. so basically, i was in front of my computer almost the entire day watching videos. sadly i got woken up early in the morning by once again, their constant walking around and talking. seriously i need to sound proof my room if not wear noise cancelling earplugs. no wonder jon got pissed last time when they used to be downstairs talking. at least go to the other side of the room and not the dining table. cos i can clearly hear every single word u say. so most of the time, i just eavesdrop on their conversation. >.<> anyways, had honey comb cereal for breakfast. watched episode 15 of housewives holiday. then hell's kitchen. made tacquitos for lunch. then finally watched high school musical 3. i know im sooo behind. have to say i like it way more than the second. the second one sucked. it kinda relates to what i went through last semester and a lil of this semester too since its my last. picking the right colleges, doing what you want to do, choosing the right courses and hoping that u dont make the wrong decision and all that stuff. its real and it relates. so thats good. yes yes acting aint that great but they really arent professionals yet so i cant realy blame them. read the devil wears prada after till dinner. watched wizards of waverly place and showered and here i am now. lots of stuff to do now. planning on finishing my chem reports tonight. and i have physics due tomorrow night. sigh. i hate physics to the core. i mentioned this a million times but i still cant get enough of it. which reminds me tomorrow is daylight savings which means we lose an hour. oh great. what timing. alright ran out of things to say. not exactly. i got lazy... i need a vacation Saturday, March 07, 2009   am i being stupid rejecting an ivy league school such as cornell university? it's not any school that comes knocking on your door sending you tons of mail every single week, advertising their school, waiving the application fee mind you. its an ivy league school. a branded school for goodness sake. yet, all i do is chuck them aside or tear up the envelope where the address is in case of identity theft and throw it in the recycling. i've been getting tons of mail from private universities since its the period of transfer application and they all look so appealing. why doesnt uc berkeley do just that?? cornell is one that appeals to me. one problem. its in new york. do i really want to pack my bags, leave "home" and go into a completely foreign state? i dotn even think i can survive going over to davis let alone a whole new state. and how much will i like new york. the east vs the west. i just cant stand this waiting anymore. just just now, dad called. not bad news or anything but he was just saying so when i ll know whether i ll get into berkeley or not and i said end april. so he said, next month? i was like no, april 30. only to realize wait it is march already. crap, i ll know in a month. i didnt know april was approaching so quickly. i dont know how i'll feel. this is so timely with the a level results. schools need to stop sending me their catalogs... i know as some are fretting over whether they ll get into the course they want over in singapore, and im here whining. but thinking of which, how fair is it to students there? one is passionate about getting into a highly demanded course but because of results or great number of applications, one is denied a spot, only to have to choose another course they're not that interested in. doesnt one have the right to choose the career path that they want? yes you work hard for it. but that doesnt mean competing with others all the time. you can work your butt off but there's always others who do better than you. results dont mean everything in the world. we should be our own competition. people shoudl be able to choose what they want to do and at least have a chance to have a go at it. and if they find out theyre not cut out for it, let them change. its not like people get experience in the different fields there. all we care about in school is learning those few core subjects and sit for the o's and a's. there's not a single class on psychology or sociology, or engineering or biochem or pharmacy or animal science. how in the world are students suppose to know whether they like that course or not? i just dont think its fair to them. not everything is about results. its about passion. and we wonder why people dont last long in their jobs. or why people keep switching their jobs after a few years. maybe thats one thing thats good here. we choose our course that we think we want to study. take a few classes that are associated with that course. perhaps even do a couple of research papers and experiments depending. dont like it, change. yes it may be a waste of time but wouldnt it benefit in the long term? im definitely not saying that its good to switch routes all the time cos that will be a huge waste of time but at least let people have one or two chances to get what they desire. you just cant force somebody to get into a less favored course when theyre denied a spot elsewhere. its just frustraating for me to hear someone worry about whether they'll get into a certain course at nus only because its an impacted course and tons of other people scoring straight a's will be eyeing for that course. i cant put alll my thoughts fully into words here but u get the idea. i think i ll be going to bed now though theres lot of stuff i wanna update about. been really busy at school these few weeks. 23 units = test every week.. scholarship applications to fill, school info to update and all that other crap. maybe i should have gone off to san jose for the weekend for the regional conference just to relax. oh wells. too late now. i ll just go to texas for the internationals instead i suppose. i miss my dog so bad too. |
