First day of class, got back my scholarship

Today our first class was English class. We have 5 English classes with 4 different lecturers, one of the lecturer was Ms. Sharifah. The seniors told me this lecturer is much better than their Mr. Manickam. While not many attended the 8am class (because they want to attend the 3pm class), we were sorted to our classes. According to them, those who were previously from Ms. Zadza will be going to Mr. Manickam. Those who were from Dr. Jeya will be going to Ms. Sharifah. There are a good news and a bad news here. Good news is I’ll be going to Ms. Sharifah’s class, which I hoped to be in her class. Bad news is I’ll be again with my ‘lovely’ classmates. After we had been sorted out, we went to our own classroom respectively. Disappointedly, my class only had 2 students including me. There should have about 10 students, but none of them came, that’s why I called them ‘lovely’ classmates. When Ms. Sharifah asked both of us whether we want to be with our previous presentation group, immediately I said NO. I would rather be in Mr. Manickam’s class bore to die than going back with my group mates. So she said she’ll see whether will rearrange the whole English class. I hope she will.

In the 10am class, which was Economics, I was surprised that there were 40+ students in the name list, where are the rest? There should be 50+. Did they failed the exam or what? Never mind about that, but till then I still haven’t get my results, have I failed Economics last semester? Maybe not, because my name appeared in the name list.

During lunch time, my friend Kam Yin took me To Desa Palma to eat. There were 7 of us went together, of course with 2 cars! While eating, suddenly David received a call from the office people that he can maintain his scholarship despite his result of GPA 3.68 where he should have at least GPA 3.7 to maintain. I was glad about it. Then David asked me to get my results first see whether I can ‘begged’ for the scholarship or not. I don’t think I’m that lucky to get GPA 3.6, maybe I can only get GPA 3.5 the most? Well, I still have to wait till 2pm only can take the results. But I don’t understand why we have to take our results at a certain time (2pm-4pm) when our results were out since Sunday.

At 1pm class, which was Maths, the lecturer was Ms. Norhana. From the way she spoke to us, I knew that she is a kind and friendly type of lecturer. At the end of the class, when I was about to ask her whether Form 6 Mathematics T is suitable for our Maths reference, then someone is calling me, it was from the office! I though they will ask me to go for the counsellor thing but no, it was about my scholarship. She told me that I can maintain my scholarship because my result is very close to GPA 3.7. I was so happy to hear that! And guess what, I got GPA 3.63! I never thought I can get such result! When I finished talking to her, Ms. Norhana had left the room.

A promise is a promise. Even though I got back my scholarship, I still have to work hard for this semester because I target my Foundation In Business to have at least CGPA 3.7! This semester there are two subjects I’m worried about, that are Maths and Malaysian studies. My seniors said their class has about 20+ students and 30% of them failed their Maths. So I hope I can do better this semester!
