It's so nice to finally see that p s e u d o is back online !!! I missed your posts !!! *gushing*
I tried the sample SAT questions in the book I've been using to prepare myself. I scored 1170. It's so low. I was targetting 1250 at least! As I went through the questions and answers, I realised I made a lot of careless mistakes on the Verbal section. I often read the questions too fast and omitted certain key words and eventually got the answers wrong. I need to slow down in the Verbal section. Often, I have time left over when I do the Verbal sections!
The opposite happened for me in the Maths section. I was too slow and couldn't finish answering the last questions. I shouldn't be spending so much time on the first third of the questions which are pretty easy. Damn...I lose points like nobody's business! Stupid, stupid...*knocks head with knuckle*
I will go through the questions again and try to answer the questions that I didn't have time to do it. hopefully this will boost my confidence. Oh, I need to tell myself not to waste time doing long calculation. (Must use calculator....Must use calculator....)
*sighs*

I'm panicking over my upcoming SAT exam this coming Saturday. Even so, I am NOT studying for it. Part of me has already resigned to the fact that I will never get into the University here. It sucks big time but I guess for the simple fact that I am basically not smart enough. Imagine competing for places in the Uni when you know that 'A' level students get priority. And believe me you, the students are getting smarter and smarter. I was just thinking how for some minority, the road to higher education is so much smoother as compared to mine. Did I made the wrong choice way back at 16? Perhaps I should have chosen the easier path to Uni instead of going to Poly. Then I wouldn't have met the most influential people in my life. It totally bites...and my fingers are frozen...

"...As a rule cat-lovers have a stronger personality bias towards working alone, independent of the larger group."
"...all of us, or nearly all of us, have both feline and canine elements in our personality. We have moods when we want to be alone and thoughtful, and other times when we wish to be in the center of a crowded, noisy room."
Taken from a book written by a zoologist and published in 1986.

Some people would consider me to have no fashion taste at all.
Or a weirdo.
Consider my outfit to work today. My favourite brown checked shirt coupled with my black work pants. You know the office type, made of linen, if I'm not mistaken. And to complete the look, a pair of sports shoes or trainers or gym shoes or definitely not-proper-office-shoes-slash-sandals.
Har...
Har...
Har...
Right...
So off to work I went and yeah, I do feel the weird looks given by people. Not that I'm a non-confirmist but I guess I dared to be different and look stupid in the process.
And besides, I don't give a turd of what these people are thinking.
p/s: The reason I wasn't wearing my usual well-mannered shoes was because of my socks. They had a little tiff last night and I do NOT wish to aggravate the situation and victimised my feet. :o)

So I'm like climbing up my creaky ladder to put back all the indicator bottles back in their place when I realised something. Why does this brand new metal ladder make a sound every single time I climbed aboard? Maximum load is 100kg. I was like thinking, I'm definitely not that heavy, am I? It's not just me. The contractor who came in to check the aircon also has got the same creaky problem. My question is, do they make these ladders so that they can spread the creakiness? I mean our bones get creaky at some point or another. But ladders too? It's brand new for Pete's sake!
