100th Page Views!!!

Hi readers/passer-by/pageviewers/whatever you want to be called! I proudly announced that my blog has reached 100 pageviews!!! =D Okay, actually, I know it is not so much of a big deal; other blogs can reach thousands of pageviews in a day. But still, for an anonymous, without promotion blog like mine, it is quite an achievement to reach 100 pageviews within a month! Still, I understand that most of the viewers actually just accidentally stumbled upon my this, or maybe some people googling the keyword "sutd interview" opened the second search result page and clicked on this blog by chance.

Anyway, I post this not just to write about me being happy and joyful of the 100 pageviews. Remember me wondering why people still searching for "sutd interview" on Google? Well, I have the answer for that, which is.......*drum roll* because SUTD actually IS STILL conducting interviews!! Below is the evidence that SUTD is still calling out students to come for interview:

He is still nice for replying to such an impossible request
So yeah, that explains why I keep seeing a (relatively) high traffic on my post regarding interview with SUTD, and somewhat explains why I decided to ignore SUTD's offer. I am sorry for not posting the story why I was pissed at SUTD, it was too long ago and the story may not be as interesting anymore... Besides, I am afraid that sooner or later SUTD will find out about my blog and since I have posted my e-mail address here, they will know who I am. Then if it reaches MOE - Minister of Education (of Singapore) - they may blacklist me and thus my admission to the other two Universities may be jeopardized. I am not exaggerating. There are stories about how so interconnected Singapore's government bodies are; someone got into trouble with one of the government bodies and forgot about it. Then, years later he needed to work in Singapore and got his application for employment pass delayed for quite a while until they finally tell him that his application was unsuccessful due to some stuff they came up with. Then the guy remember about a problem he got with Singapore (not with the workforce body) and put the two and two together. Sorry I do not put the link because I forgot where I read it, I read it about 2 years ago.

So, yeah, I guess I will end my post here. Just a sneak peek to celebrate my 100th page view, I will soon post my impression about a game that some people would surely have played or at least heard before: SKYRIM. I know it is not a big deal (seems that everything I post here is not a big deal) but I remind you that I have a 4-year old laptop here and was hesitating whether to push my laptop to the limit by playing it. After one year, I decided to try it, and well...... More on the post itself! Bye! =D

PS I decided to remove my e-mail address on the previous post just to maintain my anonymity. Sorry for inconvenience caused!

Second interview: NUS ASEAN Scholarship

Image
Hi, readers. It is quite a joy to see that my blog has reached more than 200 pageviews while I was away doing... many stuff. Perhaps, even from the first sentence, you would have noticed my... less enthusiastic tone  compared to my previous posts. Well, you guessed it, it's because of my second of the series of interview I am going to have this year did not go well.  Perhaps you are wondering, what is the big deal? You said you screwed up your SUTD interview and yet you were still offered a place there, why this time would be any different? Well, I do not know if I have told you guys this (too lazy to check on the post itself, sorry), but SUTD interview was for both admission and scholarship. While I was offered a place in SUTD, I was not offered any scholarship with the admission offer. You could say that I am satisfactory for admission, but not for scholarship. Even worse, it is possible that I am actually not satisfactory, but it is just that SUTD needs students really, really b

First interview: SUTD

Good GOD!! Today my series of universities and scholarships interviews have started and I only have 2 posts on my blog!! So, this morning is the first of the interview series, which is the SUTD Skype-based admission interview. For the benefit of those who do not know, SUTD stands for Singapore University of Technology and Design. As I heard from my friends, it is not overly formal interview where the interviewers' goal is to know me better and see whether I am fit to be in the university. There were 2 interviewers, with a handful of moderators, according to the voices I heard in the background, possibly 1-3 of them. Basically, the questions are as follows (as far as I remember): 1. Tell me more about yourself 2. What course are you going to choose if you are admitted to SUTD? 3. Do you have any role model? 4. Is it okay for you to stay in the hostel (freshmen are required to stay in their hostel for 3 terms)? 5. What, to you, is the world's challenge in technology and design? (

Of Squandering My Blessings and Courage to Fight Against My Conditioning

 Hi readers, it's been a while, as usual. And of course, I didn't (or haven't) finish my supposed multi-part story of my Thailand trip! I want to say I apologize, but then I'm not even sure if anyone is still reading this nowadays (even I don't read things in here after I posted it) so maybe there's no point to apologize since I'd be apologizing to no one lol. But anyway, another post, another melancholic(-ish) story! But don't worry, I try not to pity myself too much (I'm not in that mental state anyway, or so I think). Not sure if I shared this in my Thailand story post, but I kinda made a "wish", an "intention", to have a fruitful retreat, which happened and more, but unfortunately I'm too lazy to write it down to share here. But anyway (and also unfortunately), this post is not about that. Even though I did wish to have a fruitful retreat, not gonna lie that it took me a while to make up my mind on that wish - and one thin
