Narcolepsy is a disorder marked by excessive daytime sleepiness, uncontrollable sleep attacks, and cataplexy (a sudden loss of muscle tone, usually lasting up to half an hour).
anyway to cure this disease? =((
anyway today in nihongo lesson, sensei asked wht is the meaning of ホーム
then apparently no one knows la then remembered a song i have translated before
“” 夕暮れの駅のホーム二人 隅っこのベンチに座り”””
then ngo jau ho ying gum sic this word la XDD
which means translation of lyrics are not time-wasting at all~ hohoho
got back my phy exam, actually its not thattt bad ..if not the MC i will get a pretty satisfying/reasonable score
“”Regular Action Decisions: 3/14″”
so it has been a year already….
good luck to all the LPC applicants..really hope those i’ve kind of helped will get in ;)
the day is like this: i sneaked back home that day. a few days after project week.
around 12 midnight, was watching TV, writing on the been-thai facebook group
totally didnt realize the time until my bro reminded me through MSN that its already 12 over there (here)
i didnt expect anything so i logged in. still didnt expect anything.
read the first line. stil didnt expect anything.
then started to figure out its actually an acceptance letter. i jumped up and screamed “yes!!”
then ran to my dad’s room and told him about it, then my dad jumped from his sofa hahaha
and he said “calm down calm down!!! really???? 有沒有看錯吖“ then he came to my room
and he read the letter loud. then i started to cry and super stomache (followed by 3 nights sleeplessness)
then i told my bro in MSN, told everyone in MSN who is online, phoned my mum,
my mum screamed on the phone
i phoned joanne teresa vicky , i sent sms to everyone on earth that i knew…….
then i heard “M-I-T” these 3 alphabets for like 1,500 times per day ..
then i gave up my IB..then i become lazy…
….
all the way till now…
………
……………
……………….
after one year, im really attending this so-called dream school
filled my schedule wih midterms and exams …. pressure and confidence-drain
sadness, snow, cold, windy, snowstorm, laziness, procrastination, comparision …
i really hate mastering physics.
no, i don’t find it helpful.
anyway..today hv gathering with the acapella group
hahaha we sang all the way from kendall station, ON THE T to chinatown
and from chinatown ON THE T back to kendall, and again in lobby 7 =p
haha and soloed ninninyaugumyad on the T.. =ppp
we sang k and hv dinner at a vietnamese restaurant..then cake at mccormick
then now 18oh3 pset= =
my favourite 插楽 in 鋼之鍊金術師 (..ah i really like this anime so much)
So finally my first round of 4-midterm-battle is over.
my motto now is be happy with marks thats above class average
(considering im competing with MIT students…well am I not one though? lol)
and treat getting As as a bonus/blessing/unusual achievement
and rmb my reachable aim is: getting A for japanese 1802 1803
and getting B for biology and physics
A word on physics. remember one of the happiest things to get into LPC is that
I can finally get rid of physics. hmm I never had a good physics teacher …
and kind of within expectation that I got Bs for all the quantitative subjects in HKCEE
so getting into MIT and pulling myself into all these physics-engineering-math again
at first I was unwilling and freaked out, but for the sake of the school as an technology institute,
plus I dun really wanna give up my identity as a science student (which in fact I quite enjoyed)
I chose to pave a not-easy path towards sth that might not (and proven) be my best talent nor top interest
(I love languages and writing and reading parody and culture and data analysis and stalking)
therefore many legendary examples within my friend circle, are somehow encouraging.
how ppl who used to suck at math and become a math major,
how a person F jor physics and major mechanical engineering,
how a failed-many-subjects medic student managed to be an outstanding doctor now
When I said I got 66 marks, my dad will usually say “so 70 is the full mark?”
and now he also adjusted to say “so can you get a B?” haha
I am really thankful on how my parents understand the transition I am going through now.
the most frequent encouragement I got after I come here is: “要有信心先得架麻” and I really see how the lost of confidence in me has seriously hindered my mental health i felt im endlessly running downhill ..
living by the stereotypes that asians/international students should be really wud gay and you know, since primary 1 academic achievement was once something I am most proud of.
I am not smart but I (…occasionally) work my ass off ,
e.g. 18oh3 I got a B after I studied sooooooo much.
but actually I didnt feel sad, because I have really practiced so much
and the test has pushed me to clear concepts and I am happy that I’ve learnt from my mistakes.
the entry is getting too long, what I wanna say is
as time goes by, I gradually know how to cope with the hosed life in here Don’t compare and give my best work.STOP SELF-PITYING.
and avoid @ deep-sh!t situation…
and after all, academic is no BIGGGG deal, happiness no.1 !
