pre-UMAT blog

they say it's important to feel good and happy before you walk into the UMAT exam or else it will drastically affect your result. hence why i am blogging

no it's not really why i am blogging, since i don't believe in that mumbo jumbo
but i got nothing else to do.

so i'm a 1-30 peep so goodies for extra sleep

lets see.. what happened today.
- got chem results back. don't really give a damn

- tried to be conscientious in class. it kind of worked

- maths classes got new carpet !!!. i find it funny how when you get new car or new carpet or anything like that, you can't eat in it or drink stuff either, but after a while, noone gives a damn and it just ends up dirty anyway.
kind of reminds me of primary school when we used to sit on the carpet and listen to stories, and there was this one place of this carpet where there was missing carpet, and so us kids used to pull off the remaining carpet and eventually the carpet had to get replaced.

- felt massively pissy at someone for a while but its all resolved now :)

- went to burwood to pick up my fixed computer. i walked in with my school uniform and the guy fixing it suddenly said hey my son goes to your school ! and as always dad couldn't help himself from mentioning my prefect status == although i highly doubt chinese people know what that is
and for that he gave us 20 dollar discount. muahahaha i love connections.
took a while to figure out who's kid belonged to the computer guy cause they look very similar, then i realised it was ivan, the ladies man of year 7 who hangs out with the girls and gives them gifts as bobby the ivan-stalker would tell us



waiting from the drivers seat for parents to finish talking to ruse father guy while munching on my subway

- burwood subway sells the cheapest subs ever. after 4pm you can get any two footlongs (excl steak and bacon ranch) for 13 bucks! yes 13 bucks. so usually on the way home from guan me and my dad would make a detour to burwood and get 2 sweet onion chicken teriyaki footlong subs for 13 bucks.

- went to library to do a bit of UMAT questions. the library was so empty, felt weird as its usual full of old grandpas and grandmas gettin their moneys worth reading the newspapers. was the last to leave the library after the librarian told me they were closing. i was too in the zone to realise



i don't know whats with my council, and i feel like one of those today tonight people for complaining about this. but this escalator has not been fixed for about 8 months now. and it leads straight to the library. very annoyed that i hafta walk up stairs

well its bed time now, i was photo browsing through my albums and came across a time we played around at star city's gym and pool cause my cousin came overseas and stayed there . i'll leave with a picture of the nice city view :) (it's supposed to be calming)

  1. Hey Michael!

    First up, best wishes for UMAT! You're certainly right about feeling happy for exams! Confidence is one of the most important pre-exams techniques. No one can hand it to, you have to develop it from all your study, note making, revising etc. and it sounds like you've done all that which is great! =)

    Keep up the positive attitude!

  3. you're so damn lucky to get your discount.
    I went to a cafe with Jean and when we ordered, the owners chucked a full lecture on how awesome Jean was to their son when he came as a new student, and how he reassured him and his parents at some orientation night and stuff.
    Still, no free stuff or discount.
