one trip that was

2nd March 2010

Tuesday

So here goes my awesome day!

As usual, I had 3 alarms set for 3 different times and still I managed to turned off all of them

I love myself for that

=)

But still, I managed to force myself to leave bed at 7.30am or so

It was 7.29am to be accurate

Seriously!

Cause I was like, "Give me 1 more minute and I'll be up at 7.30am!!!"

Haha

So I was outta the house by 9.15am and fetched Phak Onn on the way to the LRT station

And I thought we were late when in fact Wai Seng himself also haven't arrived yet

Haha

Then we tumpang Mei Jin's mum's car to HELP University College

Okay, so now I know which way his mum was trying to tell him the first time we went to Damansara Heights

I guess that's called Damansara Heights right?

Or Damansara?

Whichever will do

There's still the word 'Damansara' though

*wink*

Mei Jin's mum used that way also

The KL way, I call it

Not the one going through Mid Valley and then to PJ that highway

Okay, I know I'm using description

That's because I dunno what's those highways called!

DUH?!

Haha

The KL way, through that CIMB bank and Muzium Negara and landmarks that I could not remember now

*wink*

So we went to the main block

While his mum's office was on the other 2 blocks

But we went there later on anyway

So Mei Jin brought us to the main lobby, or so I thought

And then I was like, asking this guy, seated at the last table, regarding councelling and stuff

And I told him we were SPM leavers and that we were here to enquire more about courses and stuff

I like that guy

Ahmad something

He's the foundation coordinator

So basically, he deals with Foundation Students

Yeah, right

So he really explained to us about Foundation programmes

Foundation in Arts to be specific

The differences between A-levels and Foundation

The cost for the courses we would wanna take

Accomodation and transport

Etc etc

And after that, we even spoke with some of the representatives from universities from New Zealand, Australia and United Kingdom

The Malay lady representing UK wasn't that friendly though

And since no one is gonna share my enthusiasm that I actually spoke with an English lady, I might as well share it with my bloggie!

=)

Cause my mum's not coming tonight and I actually thought of telling her that I spoke with an English lady cause it sounds really cool

*wink*

You got a problem with my enthusiasm?

Haha

Cause it sounds really cool to speak with an English person and I could understand what she was saying and meaning, I think I could survive if I ever go and study in UK?

Gosh, so far-fetched!

Haha

Okay, coming back now!

LOL

Then we walked the 1 km route Mei Jin told us

She said that from the main entrance to the end of the main block, it is 1 km long

And suddenly I feel like starting my own college life now!

OMG

It looks so fun and cool and awesome!!!

And I feel like studying at HELP now!

*wink*

And also, just an idea of the new campus at Subang Jaya

It will be completed by 2012

Also, we met Clement there!

Together with his sister

And his sister was so nice to us

She took us around, from the main block to the other 2 blocks

And then into the Library and also the computer lab

And took us to one of the cafeteria

It was located kinda underground

Then she explained so much about HELP

She asked us what we would wanna study

I told her Foundation in Arts and then Mass Comm

"But my dad doesn't want me to study mass comm, he wants me to take science."

And she gave me advice also, saying that her parents discouraged her choice of course last time so she collected all the information herself and went for it

And now, she's doing business

Thanks Alison!

=)

I like her a lot

Hopefully I could enter HELP and then I'll have her as my senior and probably we could become friends someday?

*wink*

She fetched us home too

Thanks so much Alison!

=)

Gosh, I had a terrific day!

I didn't realise it was so late until Wai Seng said so

And when I looked at my watch, it was already 4pm!

Man, we've been at HELP Uni College for almost the whole day man!

I love the trip, though tiring

=)

Credits go to Mei Jin, Mei Jin's mum, Alison, Ahmad the academic advisor and my grandpa for fetching me to the station

=)

PS to myself. The English lady said my English was good. Damn, I was ecstatic! (Gosh, getting a compliment on your English from an English person is one hella huge deal!) *not being arrogant or showy here*

=)
