Well today after college, I rushed home and then went to Yayasan Pendidikan Cheras to receive RM200 for my straight A's result in SPM. When I reached there, I thought I was in the wrong building, in some Barisan Nasional building, there were Umno and BN flags everywhere. Lilian and How Tian were already there. After waiting for so long, finally the VIP came, Senator Wira Syed Ali Alhabshee. Then there were some speeches, I remembered hearing about Barisan Nasional losing in the election but they are still continuing their social responsibilities and so they are continuing their tradition of awarding students who excelled in government examinations.
Then we had some group pictures with 60+ other students from Cheras who got straight A's, I wonder if I will appear in newspaper tommorow.
Limited edition - 12th General Election only
YPC - still in election mood?
Speech by senator
Besides getting RM200 today, I would receive another RM100 from Perijaya soon. But the better news is that my college recognizes the 1A I got for English paper marked using GCE-O standard. That means I am entitled to RM6000 deduction from the full CAT tuition fee of RM7480 (excluding exam fee, resource fee, etc), so I just have to pay RM1480 :)
Anyway, I am planning definitely going to go back to Saujana next Tuesday morning to demand the school administrators to give me a PROPER testimonial. Can you imagine, after studying for FIVE years in that school, participating in so many events, achieveing remarkable results for the school such as in the basketball competition, etc, etc. They only wrote two words in everyone's testimonial which are BAIK dan BERTANGGUNGJAWAB (pure copy and paste). I went back to college and told my friends about it, they were all laughing and told me that despite not doing anything in the five years of schooling, their class teacher still wrote each of them a personalize testomonial - two pages long, not two damned words. I was told by my lecturers and people around that when you start working, your employer is only interested in your relevant qualification, so they won't really mind if you didn't get full straight A's for SPM (cause by that time, your degree and professioanl qualification matters more), but they certainly wants to read your testimonial to see what your teacher got to say about you. So that they know what type of person you were at school, whether you were an introvert or extrovert.
I have been active in co-corricular activities. Participating in countless competitions, and yet none of it was mentioned at all. I felt cheated having attended the co-curricular activities each time. What type of message are they trying to send to the juniors? "Attend co-curriculum activities because it will help you in your application for scholarship" Yea right, when it is not even mentioned in your testimony, how is it going to help?
Unless they do something about this, I don't think there is any reason why people should be attending co-coricullar activities AT ALL, waste of time, for no reason.
