I'm now a Beginner 2 Korean Student =)

So the other day I said I was attending Korean classes... =)
YAY~~~ *clap hands*
As we were progressing through the Beginner 1 class...
I can't really concentrate....
Thing is I've learned what the sonsaengnim is teaching...
SO~~~~ I asked for skipping a grade =D

Supposedly I have to take a test before going on to Beginner 2...
Written and Oral....
But I think Kang Sonsaengnim talked to my new teacher and she just let me pass like that....
(They were talking in FAST KOREAN for me to catch plus I don't even know that much of Korean)
She said "Try one of my class, then we'll see"
Well, after the class, she told me to continue...
I asked for the Test, she said it's okay~ =D
*And she was talking to me in FULL KOREAN T-T (or was her English too accented??)
have to do a lot of guessing, before going "Ne. Gamsahamida."
and all the "Aniyo" come about when I thanked

But now...
My homework is MORE than the homework in Beginner 1...
And the thing that I have to study..... D=
Three things: Informal polite, formal polite and Informal.
Here is where all the -YO comes in... LMAO!!!
and sentence structure with -ee -ga -ehyo -ahyo.... T-T One confusing bunch!

Skipping a grade I have to study back what is the former stuff taught in Beginner 1...
Really.... It's a lot... T-T
But I'm happy to skip a grade, at least I get to finish faster and I can pay one course less =)
That's IF I don't fail it... LOL!

Taking an extra subject...

is going to kill me...
But people around me seems to love me so much they don't want me killed...
LOL...
Here's a little scene replay...


On the phone with almighty...

Me : Mee... Can I take one extra subject?
Almighty : Why not....
Me : Then I apply ge la?? I need you to write a letter for me to support me oh...
Almighty : You write for me I'll sign...
Me : Oh...
Almighty : Why do you want to take one extra subject?
Me : hmmmm... Because I want to get out of this course as fast as I can??
Almight : ..........................
Me : I'll go talk to HOP first....
Almighty : umm...
Me : Bye.
Almighty hangs up.....

So I got the (another pink) appeal form for the (one) extra credit hour...
filled it and went to see my HOP...
Who recognised me as the mentor who her mentees never came to find her...
Great start?? Not...

HOP : You want to take an extra subject?
Me : Yea
HOP : Why?
Me : I want to finish this one course earlier by a sem... I've checked and we are going to go for an extra semester... Because of Inti's ever changing systems, students from May intakes (my intake) needs one extra semester to finish everything...
HOP : hmmm..... *flips her file* You are??
Me : Lau Ji San DCE (says ID number)
HOP : Oh... you are the girl that I called...
ME : hehehe... Yeah...
HOP : so how are the mentees?? Did they call you?
Me : oh... *awkward laugh* No... They didn't...
HOP : Ah... You didn't check the mentees list?
Me : Oh... The one in CCC? ah... no...
HOP : *looks at me with weird eyes*
Me : ......*smile*.......
HOP : You got a B- in your last semester... and you have another B- in the Jan session... Can you cope with an extra subject this sem?
Me : I... wouldn't know if I never tried? *smiles*
HOP : are you a last semester student? *flips the enrolment book*
Me : No...
HOP : You have 3 more semester... you can take MPW on your next semester when you have subjects with lesser credit hours then it'll won't be a strain for you...
Me : ah..... *tries to explain the extra semester that we have to take again..... in vain....*
HOP : You take this MPW subject next sem yea...
Me : *smiles* okay..... *smiles* Thank you...
Left dejected...

FYI to HOP...
all I am hoping is to graduate asap...
Getting A's is not my priority...
I need to graduate soon then maybe I don't even need to face Engineering EVER...
And delaying an extra semester means I need to graduate late...
I'm still just a Diploma student, HOP...
And I'm old...

Just one sentence that I want to say
LOL...

Anyway... Got my posters up...

To keep me in check when I'll graduate...


Next sem : Fluid Mechanics 1, Soil Mechanic, Advanced in Engineering Graphics and Design, Surveying 1

*Kill me!!!!*

Oh did I say this too...
When I came back from my Uni today...
Me parking space was blocked by...............


a Toyota Unser...
This is the second time...
but I was lucky both time that there was no car beside me parking space....
So I can still slide in...
But I shudder to think that if there's a third time...
I wouldn't be that lucky...
So I wrote a note...


*convenience --- fail English on paper...

Now I hope that my car is still in one piece...

Good Book

Good book...
And I recommend it to everyone...
It doesn't even take you one hour to finish this book...
*and my mom fail because  gave her this book for like 4 months and she didn't even read the first sentence let alone the first word..
This is the thinnest yet the best self help book out there...
I read it ample of times...
And I'm going to read it again..

And self help book should be only this thick...
Because depressing people don't have the time and don't really bother...
The shorter the book the lesser time you spend on it the longer time you get to think...

=)
So who moved my cheese??
I'm going to get a new one~~~~~~
people who read that book would understand what I'm saying~~

going to recommend random books for you guys to read if you guys ever care about reading...
LOL...
I'm a reader though...
But I have no endless $$$ to supply for my needs...
HAHA...

An interesting day

Yesterday was really an interesting day...
There's actually nothing much until around 4pm...
where my struc 2 class begins...
my lecturer...
as I had already complained in twitter/facebook and also here...
gave back our test paper yesterday...
that's where the drama begins...
there's this student in class..
pretty much the brain of the whole class really...
I won't deny that he is smart...
his IQ if were to be tested...
it might be higher than genius... (LOLs)
But if his EQ were to be tested...
It's definitely near zero...

so both were fighting against each other...
one scolded that lecturer doesn't know how to mark the paper...
doesn't even know that what the lecturer did was wrong...
one scolded the student of not respecting lecturers and what he is doing (marking leniently - WHICH IS REALLY LENIENT - I can't say it here... I'm afraid it might cause a controversy) is just helping us to pass this subject...
then the other rebutted "I rather fail than not knowing anything and pass the subject"...

It was PRETTY tense...
since the class was in absolute silence when the whole dispute was going on...
But I was pretty amused...
really... It wasn't my first time see a student - lecturer fight...
I was not in the same class with Jane Tai for no reason okay...
*Jane-y pet if EVER you stumble upon this entry... I LOVE YOU!!!*

Since it wasn't world war 3...
I ignored what was there and stuck my earphone back into my ear and listen to music which pleases me...
And if it doesn't concern me, I couldn't careless...
But if he made this dispute into all of us to retake the subject...
Even without paying a single cent...
I'm going to look for him to knock some sense in him...
I'm not retaking ANYTHING...
ALL I NEED IS TO GRADUATE ASAP!!!
and retaking is like pulling everything to a halt...
and I don't think I can accept that... LOL...

ANYWAY...
on a happier side...
At 10.30pm I went to gym last night...
And WOW...
It was the best gym session I've ever had... =)
They played 3 Linkin Park songs...
some Gorillaz...
and some other band songs...
I was like YEAH!!!!! and practically pumping on the air walk machine...
and then I remembered what Leeteuk said in Come To Play...
"In places like Malaysia and Philippines, we were able to fill all the seats of concert halls that not even stars like Linkin Park could fill."
FYI, Leeteuk-shi....
I was a BIG fan of Linkin Park way before I know you guys....
I was only 12 when I love Linkin Park...
and I love you guys when I became 20...
Okay...
I don't know what I'm saying now...
Whether to find what Leeteuk said to be amusing or defend Linkin Park...
*fail at being a fan of either groups...*
HAHAHAHA...
*btw... Linkin Park's concert venue is in Dataran Merdeka when they came to Malaysia in I think 2004?? and that place is bigger than Bukit Jalil... Since it's open air and all standing...
SORRY SUPER JUNIOR~~~~!!!!!! =P

Just a normal student

Hey I'm just a normal student...
students who rejoice to a canceled class...
students who hate being cramp with endless assignment and projects and lab reports...

So when my Struc lecturer canceled his class today..
AGAIN...
Of course I was all happy...

But then I think...
My lecturer isn't a good one...
He crawls at snail pace...

So if he keeps canceling class...
will we EVER finish our syllabus on time for Exam...
Please...
I don't want any extra classes...

Fine... Maybe I'm just being selfish...
Maybe my lecturer does have something important to do...

I don't know now...
a messed up student here...
Don't know to rejoice or feel angry at my lecturer or just plain worry...
