Today is one of the most unlucky days of my life. My friend asked me to go for some "seminar" on bei da (top uni in China). He told me to meet at 945. I thought it was 945 at jurong east, but it turned out to be 945 at serangoon -_- . Had to cab to NYJC since my friend told me not to be late since we were representing the school. Taxi fare: $12.20 :(
Well, a necessary price to pay I must say, just to protect my sch's reputation. In the end, when I reached there, another person from HC who was supposed to come just woke up!! So much for my $12.20. Shan't mention names here since it wont be nice to these people.
Trouble did not juz end here. Received one of the worst shocks of my life when I reached NYJC. My friend gave me the wrong info, it's not a seminar!!! To be exact, it's a "ji zhe jiao liu hui". An interviewer from zao bao was supposed to come and carry out one-to-one interviews on everyone !!! And as if this was not enough, there was a photographer from the zao bao too.
QING TIAN PI LI. This is certainly more than what I asked for.
Felt really really out of place coze the students who went there were LEP students (actually it was mostly the LEP students who were notified of this jiao liu hui, but my LEP friend sort of juz pulled me along since there weren't enough people)
Well, the NYJC teacher was quite nice and said I can back out from the interview if I felt uncomfortable and I did. Everyone was okay with it except that interviewer from zao bao. Great, I ended up ruining the school's reputation. Despite forking out $12.20 just to make sure I was on time.
I feel damn stupid now ...
