MIT Admissions Talk - My Very Own KL Trip

During the school holidays,I had found out that there would be held on a Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT)-One of the greatest university in the world,its undergraduate admissions talk at KL from the newspaper.This talk had been held by MIT Club of Malaysia,due to introduce the instruction of apply to study at MIT for all the Malaysia students who got the interest to study at there.No doubt,I determined on attend to this talk.(MIT is actually the top rank in my dreamy school list)

I tried to find some friends to accompany me,but it was totally failed.Thus,it was became my own trip exactly-the only one person trip.I started my trip by taking the train at 4.05pm friday.After about a five hours journey,I was finally arrived to the KL Central:

After that,I contacted to my cousin who had lived at KL due to find out a place to have a rest.
Next day morning,I waked up early and took leave of my cousin.I went to the "Royal Selangor Golf Club"where the place that admissions talk would be held on by taxi.

When I arrived there,the talk was just started.I quickly found out a sit and listened it quietly.

It was a great talk.It talked about the school life in MIT,the details of the application and how a student can improve his chances to study in MIT.As expected,it was a hard job for the MIT admission.Basically,the application requirements are:
Part1: Biographical information
Part2: Tests,activities and essays
Two teacher evaluations
Secondary school report
Financial and materials
Interview
But it is definitely not easy to prepared that.Beside tests(Actually the tests result is the most important part,but I think every students who decided to apply to MIT will work hard to get closer to the FULL MARK in their SAT I,II and Toefl tests.),MIT need geek.Why I call them geek?Because almost all students who had been succeed admited to the MIT have a splendid extracurricular activities during the secondary school.How they did that?Example,they mostly were a leader in some school club and at least won a national or international award in science area.

As conclusion,MIT is a place for a group of genius to explore their life.This talk was made a great inspiration to me.What a amazing life is over there!I must work hard to improve everything on myself,especially my english == Just let it be,go ahead,don't be fear!
Who just wish to know more about the admissions of MIT,can just be contact to me.I am pleased to help too.

Just one day past,Apple had announced their new iPhone System-iPhone OS 3.0, a big update since the last 2.0 version.Apparently,it will be a great news to the iPhone users.

Well,what had been Apple done for the new iPhone 3.0?Just for some security update?Or a regretful update for all the iPhone users?I think Apple is obviously doesn't think to do that so.Let's check out what had the iPhone system change now.

As conclusion,there had eight most important change that Apple done in iPhone 3.0.
1)The MacOS's search engine-Spotlight is completely move to iPhone now.iPhone users can just search what the file they needed as fast as like search a mail on GMail.
2)Support to the Bluetooth A2DP and the P2P transfer data function.
3)SMS on the iPhone finally can be direct forward and delete one on one.(Just a simple function that mostly mobile phone can do that,why iPhone need wait to the 3.0 version?)
4)More horizontal showing function support.Many iPhone program can be using in the horizontal in iPhone 3.0.
5)Cut,Copy and Paste.After one year and one year expectation,finally reveal this very very common function on the iPhone now.
6)Undo function.What an another silly common function finally been update now.
7)MMS support.Nothing to say,I think even the lowest mobile phone can do that too a period of time.
8)Note sync function.iPhone users can easily sync their subscriptions on iPhone with their Mac.

As a result,iPhone 3.0 finally succeed changed out many common function that many iPhone users waiting for.Such as MMS,copy and paste,sms forward function.iPhone 3.0 already start testing now,iPhone Programmer can download its beta version today and the final released version will be reveal on this summer.

The Release of SPM Result !

12 March 2009,a special date for all the students who participate in 2008 Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia(SPM),which the result would finally announced on this particular day.

The SPM result arrived at my school in around 10.40am. No doubt,I was extremelly curious on my SPM result. I ran as fast as I could to the tack board which pasting the results and started to seek for my result."Err..JC505..DO55...WOW!! "It was amazing! When I found out my result,I was totally no idea for it! One,Two,Three...Five As that I got!I suddenly screamed out loud without any consideration. Having this result, I had succeed my aim for SPM. Even though 5As is just an ordinary result for most of the Local Schools students,but I was satisfied with it as I'm just an Independent Chinese School student who studying in different syllabus and lacking with a wide-range of study resources for the SPM.

I got A1 in Mathematics, Additional Mathematics and Science, A2 in English and Chinese.It was inevitably a great result for me, but I also did have great disappointment with my GCE-O level, Art and English for Science and Technology,which just comes with C5,B3,B4 respectively, totally out of my expectation. Okay, well, succeed in spm and soon, the next upcoming crucial exam will be UEC. Must work hard for it and wish to get a good result as well.

In addition, as the proverb goes, "Misfortune will never come alone." But I think fortune will mabye no come alone too, HAHA. At the same day of the announcement of my SPM result, my class teacher found me at the rest time when I was preparing for my school's exam. Unexpectedly, he informed me that I had been chosen as one of the participants for the 5th MICSS (Malaysia Independent Chinese School Science Camp). What a great news! I have been expecting for it in such a long period of time. Finally, I got the chance to be involved for this gorgeous event. It will going to be held at Foon Yew High School, Kulai during 1 June to 5 June. Really exciting and expecting for it, wish will have a good time at there! All the best. :)
