YSD Assessment aka Interview

woohoo!! i got shortlisted for the second stage!!! First stage was the online application, where we filled up all the forms and details and particulars, all my A's etc etc. hehe... then they asked for alot of bullshit qs like what is your favourite drama, and alot of nonsense qs which i could see no connection with the scholarship at all. but well, since they asked, i just give them answers they want. answered "one litres of tears" because it is very inspirational (answers like that. forgot what i really put)

Then.. they mailed me last week for the interview thats held today. ant and ys' interview is on friday (tomorrow). so of coz, they are happy that i could be their "guinea pig". haiz.. have to go alone, sit alone. So, i woke up at around 6.10, went out by 6.50, sat bus, lrt to Asia Jaya. I googled on the place, Sime darby convention centre, at Mount Kiara, and ppl stated that the nearest lrt station is bangsar, and i should sit taxi to sime darby from there.



But i viewed the map, and saw that Eastin Hotel is nearer to that place compared to Bangsar, and since its morning, there should be traffic jam. Thus, i sat to Asia, sat bus to Eastin, and waited for taxi there. then i called for taxi, and they said there is none going to sime darby. i was like quite nervous d. no taxi there thats willing to go also. i was starting to regret my decision, n wondered should i sit back to asia, sit lrt to bangsar, and sit cab from there, when God answered my prayer, and a cab came and took me there. n its so cheap, only rm 4.70. i gave him rm5 n asked him keep the change. haha.. since he is so good to fetch me there. =)

So, i am one of the earliest to arrive. (my session starts at 10) arrived there by 9. then once i reached the place n saw other candidates i was like. "ohh gosshh" coz all the guys were wearing a tie. n i went without one. i prayed they wont penalise me or ask a reason behind it. (i kept thinking for a valid reason. i no tie lah, forgot lah, thot no need lah etc etc). thankfully til the end of the session, they didnt ask or mention a thing bout it. some of the candidates even wore a blazer. =.= swt.

the thing that i was disappointed bout simedarby was that they have no punctuality at all. said start at 10, but 11 only started. was grouped with 4 other ppl and entered a room with one malay lady interviewer who speak good english. introduction, then was given the title "EDUCATION" to discuss.

She asked qs, and we answered. i pitied one malay girl who was nervous and answered badly. her answers were out of the point. the interviewer had to stress her qs a couple of times. Then at first, i was a bit nervous, but as the time passed and i talked more and more, i became more confident, until i got the nerve to interrupt her. haha.. coz she was talking bout how maths and science should be taught in malay so as to be fair to the rural ppl and she was asking another person. i got alot of things in my mind, thus i just raised my hand, but she ignored me. =( i managed to state my points later during the discussion, though. XD

it lasted for bout an hour, so we ended at around 12. went out and after a while, they announced the 3 successful candidates who were eligible to sit for the second assessment stage- the 3 online tests. and.. yeahhh i am one of the 3. =)

after that, we went to the lab room to wait for other groups to finish, and bout 12.30 they asked us to have lunch. that was the point when i was MOSTTT disappointed!! i had read other ppl's blog bout their interviews and they stated that there wil be a buffet lunch which would normally cost 65 bucks per person but foc for candidates, n i awaited for that. BUTTT reality sure is cruel. we got a small, packet of bihun. =.= so far from what i imagined. haizz...

while eating i chat with a malay guy who was in the same group discussion with me. I realized that alot of public uni students applied too, esp UiTM. this guy is studying law there. i asked bout the fees etc n guess WHAT?? according to him, the fee in UiTM is the cheapest compared to other uni, and its only RM500 per sem. so the whole course is only few thousands. i was like errr... i think this guy must come from a very poor family. =(

but though he cant get scholarship, i think he should be able to get some financial aid from gov rite? even my sis got when she studied in UM. anyway, then he asked bout my medicine course and i was like errr... "it wil be a few hundreds... thousands." there was a short silence n then i interrupted the silence sayin thats why i need a scholarship.

ok, next, bout 1.30 we started the online tests. i started with a numerical test first. its a maths test which requires basic knowledge of addition, subtraction, division n multiplication. sounds easy?? huh!! i think its even harder than my A-Level maths which requires algebra, complex no, integration etc knowledge.

Its harder in the sense that the qs are highly tricky, n there is only 20 min to finish 24 qs. n they didnt even state the qs no!! so i dont even know what number i am at. i couldnt finish all n i tembak a few qs. i think i managed to answer 20 qs, tembak 3 and left one unanswered. after that, it seems that its not only me. EVERYONE else couldnt finish their test at all.

Next, was verbal test. gosh. this was much worse. i had never read so fast in my entire life. there are a total of 6 passages, with 4 qs for each passage. every qs had 4 statements, n only 2 are correct. we r to answer according to the correct statement. but this time, i learnt my lesson. i first jot down all the qs no, 1,2,3 to 24. and after i finished one, i crossed one so i wil know which no i am at. it helps me to tembak the rest of the qs when i realized that time is running short. i managed to do 5 passages, n i tembak all the qs for the last passage.

finally, is the personality test. there is 300 qs. O.o but no time limit. at first, i wanted to do slowwwlyyy since my bro can only fetch me at 5pm. that time was around 2.30. some of the qs were quite similar in meaning. i gues they want to test our consistency in our answers. each qs was a statement, n your answer is from totally disagree, to totally agree. but slow as i could, i finished at 3.

i figured that it wil be wastage of time for me to wait for 2 hours. i went out, called for taxi again, but !@#@$@$ no taxi available. =.= i then walked out to the highway, hoping to see a bus stop or a taxi stand or hitch a taxi there. but then i thot i might as well walk back to eastin hotel. haha.. save money. it isnt that far anyway. from kj station to my aunt hs requires RM 5 n just now from eastin to sime darby is RM 4.70. n i am used to walking back from my aunt house back to ara damansara. =P

But the problem is my sense of direction. haha. when i sat the taxi, i didnt really observe the surrounding so i just walked according to my instinct. walk walk walk. felt that drivers staring at me. (how often do u see a guy walking on the highway? in addition to one who is wearing a formal cloth?? haha.. ) then reached a bus stand, saw a bus that states "eastin hotel" i asked the bus driver, n he said easin is just behind the bus stop. lol. means i walked the right direction!! thank God. bus it was kinda dangerous too, to cross the busy roads. but at last!!

i waited at eastin hotel for the bus. waited waited, after bout 40 min, it came but @#@$#$% IT just went and ignored me!!! =.= wasted my time!! then i decided to sit a taxi instead. RM 5.40 to reach the asia jaya station. haizz.. initially i thot i could spend less than 10 bucks for transport.

ok, thats bout it. went back condo n back klang. discussed bout the interview with ys and ant, gave them tips, the titles, etc etc.. n now, as i type this, they had already finished their interview. lol. both of them managed to enter second stage. Ys got "Sime darby" n ant got same title with me. yesterday when i was waiting for my result, head others discussing. got one group got title "faceboook". =.= i asked another girl she got "how to make a company greener". haha..

wow. its sure a long post. but oh well, since i only blog once a month. =P

My "secret admire"

yup. My "secret admire" from who knows where called me last friday. it all started like this:

i was in class, having chemistry, when i received this msg:

"Hi, where are you? i really need your help. whoever u are. just help me. dunno what to do. i umm umm donno what to do. i just randomly typed a hp number. my hs just got robbed. some robbers came in. i am hiding somewhere now, quietly. i took my mom's hp. so donno any contact no. can u pls help me can u get some help? i hope u can be my saviour. pls help me whoever u are.."

eh eh leh... hou chi hai kam. hahha.. aiya, its very obvious she is interested in me finding excuses only rite? hahaha... kena rob also can type so long, can hide from robber somemore. house a mansion meh? i replied:

"i m in subang. if u can type that long u might as well call police rite?" then i try calling her but..

"pls dont call. pls i cant talk loudly. i think the robbers are still in my hs. i can only text. can u pls help me? i m really scared.."

so i "play" with her lor...

"how can i help u. whats your address. yr mom phone no other contact?"

"i stay in kl. umm.. she's a housewife. only got her relatives no. they stay far away from here help.."

"how can i help. address? msg police if cant call. 999."

then she called me:

"gotcha!!! hehe.. just a prank!! melisa campbell here..."

"i know no melisa campbell.."

"i know. wanna be frens? i am quite pretty u know?? hehe.."

"erm..."

then she off the phone. i can hear her frens giggling.

my frens also laughing at the whole scenario. some soo pessimistic ask me to msg, to call, in case if real robbery how??

then she called back. my fren, ys answered the call:

"WHO IS THIS??? why do u call david? he is my boyyyfrennnn. u bi***"

"oopss. sorry." off the phone.

Me and my frens JUST HAHAHAHHAAHA...

then i texted her back:

"hey, are u really pretty? if yes i might consider changing gf u know?"

ys face glowing red already. lol.

"hey, tiffane here. sry 2 prank u.. anyway thx to your sis. let's end the lame fun"

"i am not her sister. i am his daughter"

"cehh.. okok. she say she's ur gf wor. juz wondering.."

"i ve just got divorced and i am single and lonely. she's my 19 yo daughter."

"oo. k la. hope u will find your new partner. umm sad for u. if u want me also can lar. i'm 54. quite lonely and very available. i can take care of your daughter."

"ok. lets meet up. haha.."

"okok. sure. lets meet at jaipur mamak. haha.."

then the rest was lame... lol. actually this was not the first time, someone just msg me randomly. i rmb got once, just few months ago, got a guy msg me in chinese. i dont understand, replied in eng. then he called me at late midnite. i slept d. it happened for few nites.... then one day i listened, i said:

"i am a guy"

he straight away off the phone. no more calls after that. hahaha..

If only i Could know How do u feel About Me right Now..

ok.. after like almost 3 months.. here i am bloggin once again. lol. actually i dont think i should be blogging now, but should be studying instead for my chem exam.. which i havent even start revising. (crap...) well.. where to start.. haha.. i always wanted to blog before this, but no time, and i postponed and postponed til i lost interest in bloggin anymore.. so this may be a mix up of here and there. lol.

once again, its the end of sth- now its my a level program. its the shortest one i had ever went thru. just 1 year and a half. wow. but frenship do grow and sprout here and there, from good frens, best frens, daughter.. haha... ok. dont get me wrongly. i dont mean i had s*x with my best fren and produce one baby out ok?? =P

well, i guess i should blog bout that some other time. now i just wanted to share about my physic exam. dont know why, i have gotten soo lazy nowadays that my results just shooopppp down the hill. always no mood to read and its really REALLY last minute study that for my physics i have to just browsee thru.

on the day b4 the exam i was like just sooo stressed up. no time to practice n my brain cells seem to have deteriorated so much i cant absorb much anymore. thus i had a good mind to skip the exam. lol. might as well skip than fail rite? but thinking again.. i guess i shouldnt be soo kiasu... fail ma fail lor.. i got such "good" frens somemore.. this is an eg of how good they are:

me: hey... should i go? i may fail leh...

frens: good.

me: wei, what frens are u all ah? so happy i fail ah?

frens: yah, we memang happy that u wil fail. coz its very rare. its like seeing meteor shower. very nice mah.

me: =.=

after exam...

me: i couldnt do most of the qs.. may really fail...

frens: yeahhhhhh!!! let's celebrate david's failure!!! (blow balloons)

frens: come david! i chia u makan!! this is a day to rmb!!!

so.. they are soo good rite? i also speechless already...

well, but God is good. before exam, i asked Him for just 60 marks n i wil be contented (of coz deep within my heart i ask for at least 70.. but.. dont want so greedy lah. i dont think i can also since i din even read half)

then after exam... i wil be happy with 50...

next day... i got 62!!! woww!!! God is great isnt it?? hahahah...

ok. i know u read this thru n stil dont understand the meaning of my pm... n i guess i shoudnt explain.. try to figure it out yourself!!!
