Yeah! It's holidayz finally, after 3 months of, ahem, torture in college.
Regarding the JPA scholarship interview, there were -A LOT- of people who went. Early in the morning, I woke up and got dressed in the bought-last-minute,-very-formal,-like-auntie-clothes. Then my dad drove me to the interview place which is in SHAH ALAM. God knows how many hours we spent turning here and there in search of that stupid place called UITM. There were so many round-a-bouts that we heaved a sigh of relief when we finally reach UITM main campus in section 7 or something. Luckily my dad had the instinct to ask the guard where the interview place is, cause we found out that we were at the WRONG campus! The guard told us that, we had to go out, turn right, take the 3 o'clock turn for 3 round-a-bouts that we see. By the time we were really running late and could not afford to make any more mistakes. Well, we finally reach the right place at 8am, after turning one right turn for the 1st roundabout, GO STRAIGHT for the 2nd, and right for the 3rd... guess the guard didnt really know his way around too. Duh.
I went into the toilet there just to find out that there was a water shortage there and there's no water in the toilet. So i dropped the idea and went straight into the hall. We were given a briefing and had to do a 300 MCQ test before finally reaching the interview part. I was among the second group of 12 to go in for the dreaded interview, so we had time to mix around and get to know some friends. All were nervous and most had problem getting there as the road signs was confusing. Here's an interesting part: The boy sitting beside me was from Taylor's also! Problem is, in my applicatiom form, i wrote that i am NOT studying currently so i couldnt afford to let anyone there know that i actually AM studying as i was afraid that they will contradict me inside. So i had to tell the guy that i am not studying now even though he said i look familiar to him! Haha. What a shame! He's cute and look promising. Too bad...
The interview itself was okay. The guy told us to introduce ourselves and gave us two topic to discuss among us candidates. One in english and the other in Malay. Hmm, guess the interviewer didnt really like what we discussed cause he commented that we should change our way of thinking. Ha!
Whether i get the scholarship or not, is out of my hand now. Guess i shall just study hard and hope for the best!

ON THE ROAD
If u havent got your lisence, you would be anticipating to drive. But once you finally got it and get to drive around, some would think twice before saying he/she like to drive. I, for one, would prefer not to drive. It's not that i havent been driving around, i have been driving, at most, to my school in Subang, and to places like Klcc, sg wang and all, but i still got a shock after narrowly miss hitting a lady with a child back in Taman Segar. She was, if not a better word, a BLUR CASE. You would think that a mother with 2 children at a junstion of the road would be carefull. But she was totally the opposite. I saw her at the road side from far, even my mum warned me so. she was facing in front so i could see from the back that she was picking up one of her younger child so i never gave it a thought that she would just pick up her child, turn -90 degrees- and cross the road without looking if there's any car moving by. What a brainless git. Luckily i stopped in time so i think i only knock the woman's arm with my car mirror. And yet she turned and scrowled at me! I shunned to think what would happen if i was stepping on the accelerator at that moment. A rough guess is i would be at the nearest hospital filling up a form with a police officer scrutinising me.
So, you people who's driving, be carefull and anticipate anything that could happen on the road.
