What a day. (or week)

Went for U.S. visa interview. I didn't know that we need to take our electronic devices out and hand in to the security guard before entering the embassy. Finally met the YES'16. Can't recognize some of them from the selection camp hahaha. Instead of calling me 'EnQi', some of them simple shouted 'Las Vegas' when they saw me. It's really funny when they recognize me by my placement instead of me myself. Had a great meal with QianWen at Pizza Hut. She's my roommate from the selection camp and I've never expected that we're going to the U.S. together!

Went to BAC for YES'16 Q&A session. I don't know why, but the atmosphere between alumni and the participants are a little bit tensed. I've got TONS of information regarding how we're going to present Malaysia to the people and how to pack our stuff from the alumni but I still haven't filter the information I got. It's messing up my mind and I'm like duh, there's still time, I'll think about it tomorrow.

Rushed to Royale Bintang Hotel after the session. Dressed up and get ready for the prom night! Pictures say more than words.















Walked around Kuala Lumpur after prom. Feeling so glad that it was held in a hotel instead of BRP club. We can finally chill around the place after the event. I'm feeling proud that I did not touch any alcohol. (uhh well maybe a sip) Yay!

Slept around 4 and woke around 8. Went to workout at the gym and I'm feeling the soreness in my muscles now. #demsatisfication

Checked out and went to Pavillion in the afternoon.



Went to Alam Puri Condo @ Jalan Ipoh for a gathering with the AJKs from Chinese Culture Camp. JiaHao is really a good chef. Loving his cooking skill!
Fresh prawn cooked simply with boiled water, grilled mushroom with cheese, bacon with enoki... I'm feeling hungry now. Thank you so much for organizing this gathering. I really really enjoyed it! (my taste buds agreed with it too.)

Reached home around 11pm. Feeling so satisfied, great and exhausted.



Countdown 10 days to 2016! It's going to be a great year. I really really can't wait for it. :)

Life as a Form 6 Student / STPM Candidate

Update @ 27/3/19:  Since Google+ comment has been turned down, I've posted another post, Should You Go for Form 6/STPM here . Feel free to ask or comment. More than glad to help! Back in 2016, I joined Form 6 without second thoughts because I didn't want to limit my options for the future (which is why I turned down a 100% scholarship for foundation in Xiamen University Malaysia) I didn't want to pay for A-Levels (I could only get partial scholarships) I wasn't sure what I wanted to do and I didn't want to choose a diploma yet I swear to God, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I was a straight A's student in SPM 2015 and yet I find STPM extremely challenging. If I say I worked 100% hard for my SPM, I definitely worked at least 800% harder for STPM. Like my friend once said, you won't know if you are really good in academics until you've come to STPM. 10A's in SPM is really nothing compared to 4.0 in STPM.  I took Pengajian...

Life In The U.S.A. #8 - Close to The End

Counting down 9 days till I leave Vegas... Yes, I'm excited to go home and meet my beloved family and friends, but I'm really sad to leave my wonderful host family and my amazing friends. I still remember how I felt during my flight. I was nervous but super excited that meet my host family. I was thinking how should I call them and what I can say if things get awkward. And yay I arrived. I remember the first thing I saw when I arrived at the McCarran International Airport - slot machines. Dang. It's Vegas being Vegas. *laugh* (And guess what? There are slot machines in the pharmacies too! No idea why but it doesn't matter. It's Vegas. That explains it all.) I remember my host mum was looking smoking hot at the airport :P And we went to... (Let's just skip it. I swear I can tell you every single detail that happened on my first day here but I don't know how long I will take to finish it.) My exchange journey had been amazing. It's full of ups and do...

Feminism

Back in the days where I was a total mess after a bad breakup, I worked hard to put up my brave front, shed no tears and face everyday with an aggressive attitude. I tried so hard just to tell myself that I'm fine being on my own and I do not need anybody else to complete my life. And I was called a feminist, not really in a good way. I felt truly insulted. I don't know, but it feels like feminist is somebody who is not lovable nor approachable. It feels like a feminist is equivalent of being alone and meant to be a virgin for the rest of her life. It took me years to realize that feminism is not that bad after all. In fact, it is something I should be proud of. I'm not going to talk in depth about the first and second waves of feminism in the history. I'm just going to talk about feminism in the present, where many people would assume that "it's just a bunch of females getting butthurt over some random shit". Recently, my class had been told som...
