I hate Thursdays..

I hate thursday.. It's the longest day in a week.. luckily now no more physics S'paper.. otherwise.. 8-5.. yux.. but today is quite ok lah.. Mr Sze is not in school.. mdm teng not coming for civics.. so we have 1hr n 30 mins more break.. that's why I am here blogging.. lol..

yea.. talk to Ms Wang n Mdm Teng today.. Ms Wang seems quite sad when I told her I wanted to do Statistics... haiz.. I like her topics better.. but seriously I am not going to be an engineer!! then she said most US universities have maths department lol.. Ms Wang suggested me to choose major applied Statistics for Econs.. haha when I told Mdm Teng.. I think she is quite shocked.. if not shocked.. at least she never expected that... haha and she just scolded me for not listening to her during lesson bcos of my stupid presentation in the Chi-squared test assignment.... =( then Mdm Teng said U Penn has the best Statistics in US.. if UK then LSE lol.. but U Penn very difficult to get in.. when I asked her Cornell.. she said.. oh.. then no more..

yea quite funny too. I asked her.. Mdm Teng.. What you think whether I am suitable to do Statistics? She said..

"at this point of time I cant really tell who is good who is not.. I think you dont have much problem lah.. but your work huh.. hmmm.." then she added " I think it's bcos you din listen in class lah.. hmmm must be it.. last time I also had one student like you huh.. Nv listen.. always do funny things.. but your brain is ok.."

erm I din know what to say.. cos last year she told me.. "you are extremely hardworking.. but you dont have the brain.." It seems controdicting with what she is saying now.. maybe something has changed my brain.. must be it.. haha

then one thing very very funny.. when I asked mdm Teng about Statistics.. she kept saying you want to do stacs huh? hmm I wont say doing stacs is boring lah.. doing stacs blah blah.. but lot of people thought she was saying you want to do sex ah? I wont say doing sex is boring lah.. haha no wonder they looked so freaked out..

yea saw my GIC scholarship interview time slot.. I am the first one in the list.. dunno what it means.. anyway juz try lol.. hope I can get it.. haha

People have asked me why my name is so damn bloody hard to pronounce, I would say it's not my problem. Just in case anyone who is interested to find out what the name actually means, here it is:

萱 pronounces as xuan, is the flower called daylily pictured above;

仲 pronounces as zhong, means I am the second child in the family

弦弦诉人意,弓弓道世情

可以高贵,可以平凡
可以不问英雄出处
可以痴情风流的二胡
一弦可以大江东去
一弦可以月游西湖
一曲未了竟有琴弦启开江南
让俏丽的姑娘
用浓浓的茉莉花语
从红袖里伸出酥手
把一个河山香透

My Erhu, My Forever Love
