Life in matriks




Phew, after one whole week of orientation, I finally have some time to sit down and surf net via wifi from library. Life is tough throughout the orientation week as I had to get up very early to attend Moral Kuliah, wash clothes everyday, skip lunch or even dinner due to hectic timetable. Besides that, I feel quite lonely here as there are only 116 non-bumi among 2000+ students. In my practicum, I am the only Chinese boy around and surrounded by many crazy malay girls.

The food in this college also sucks. Although there are 4 cafe in the college, they are selling practically the same food everyday. Those food are surrounded by houseflies almost 24 hours and they are either yellow, red or orange in colour. I had a very bad stomachache during the orientation week. Most probably caused by the food.Luckily, I managed to get out from here yesterday for a decent meal in Seberang Prai City.

However, I do enjoy some moment with our seniors who known as faci. They are willing to help me throughout the orientation week and they are very friendly too. After knowing that I was having a terrible stomachache, the facis helped me to apply mc and send me to clinic. There are many Johorians in here!! We are the "majority" in KMPP.

Frustrated and angry

Yesterday was certainly a very frustrating day of my life. I got to know that the JPA result will be out on 3pm yesterday and thus I went online to check it out. To my dismay, they had changed their time to 5pm. Oh great! I had to wait another 2 hours. I got more frustrated when there is practically nothing appeared on the JPA's official website where they had written there "8 MEI 5 PETANG". Huh, so that was so-called the professionalism of our government sector!

Well, that was not the end of story. Later on, I checked again on 11pm and they published another new post stating that "capaian ke semakan tidak boleh bagi sementara waktu". What the..... I was so frustrated and went to bed immediately. After an hour, my friend called and told me that the result is FINALLY OUT. Rushing downstairs with my sleepy eyes, I went to the website like an idiot again to check my result. -PERMOHONAN ANDA TIDAK BERJAYA- Everyone knows what is that,right?

Initially, I didn't feel so sad at all as I also not so interested in medicine. However, the worst part was when I found out that one of my classmate who is currently a petronas scholar get the JPA scholarship. F**** la.@#&%^* That was the moment I realised that the JPA policy still never changed at all. They only offer scholarships to "poor students" regardless of their result.(Did I mentioned earlier that he got a B3?) I shouldn't be so honest giving the actual amount of salary earned by my parents. In fact, I should write my mother's occupation as a housewife. I was so naive and innocent just like Gillian Chung.

In addition to that, I remember that my friend told me there was another JPA interview on mid-April. Anyone else knows that, I wonder. The second batch of interviewee were informed through phone call and none of their names where published on the JPA official website as well. The interviewers on that particular day said that the interview was conducted due to some politicians. Since when politicians also actively involved in giving scholarships? I didn't bother about it before that because I thought that our new prime minister will be fair to MALAYSIANs. Now, I begin to think otherwise. Everything in this country never changed at all. There is no transparency and our fate are manipulated by those selfish politicians who only think about themselves.

~I LOVE MALAYSIA,BUT I HATE POLITICIANS~
An advise to all politicians: Don't treat us like idiots,we are to one who vote you!!

The right choice?

Well, I am currently preparing myself to go Kolej Matrikulasi Pulau Pinang(KMPP). Buying some clothes, water heater, bedsheets etc. I wish to bring my pillow which had accompany me for many years there but it is too big to be squeezed into my bag.:( Besides that, I also booked a bus ticket to go Penang on Sunday night.

However, I am still wondering whether this is the right choice as some people say that matriculation is substandard and we will be harder to cope the university life in the future. Apart from that, I found out that I am able to change to accounting course if I want to do so. Hmm, should I change into accounting course?

My brother phoned his friend who graduated from matriculation 2 years ago and found out that the accounting course was conducted in BM! What the..... Hence, his friend had to adapt himself with the courses conducted in English in UM the next year. Now here's the million dollar question--Are the present subjects in matriculation taught in BM too? Anyone who has the latest information please tell me oh~~

Matrix reloaded

I was astonished to find out that I was offered a place in Kolej Matrikulasi P.Pinang as I didn't apply for that place in my application. Well, the course(science) commences on the 11th of May and a non-refundable registration fee of RM 220 need to be paid in order to enter the college.

Apart from that,I also received the offer letter from TARC which I had applied earlier. They are offering me the TARC Merit Scholarship that gives me 100% fee waiver for my accounting course in KL. Both TARC and matriculation start almost at the same time. Which one should I choose??? Now I am so confused and the JPA scholarship for certain foreign countries will be out tomorrow too. Haiz....
