History repeats itself. I mean, our EL FYE appeals to be a disaster again. The fives topics for Section A are "Rivalry", "Describe a time when you were unexpectedly thrust into limelight", "Write about a time when you got in trouble in law" and two discussive writing respectively. Obviously, no one was brave enough to try discussive. Most of us chose narrative. I also chose the second topic, which I put in all the words regarding "embarrassment" which I had just memorized ten hour earlier (I did not went to sleep until two o'clock cuz I was dreaded the prospect of failing EL. It would be extremely shameful.) Section B was functional writing. Formal letter, which we had practiced for ages. Yet time was not sufficient for me. I could barely finish.

 

Comprehension, predictably, was a failure. Passage A denotes a silly three-wheeled car produced by one of the Japan's most influential company. It talked about its advantages and disadvantages, which was rather lengthy and tedious. The vocabulary question was exceptionally confussing. I didn't know. Which word tells you that the Vice-president was pressed to answer the question? "Paused" or "finally"? Honestly speaking, I spent only 45 mins on compre cuz I knew I would definitely fail, so I focused more on the summary part which I identified 17 points and converted them into my "own words" as far as possible. Hopefully, it would again save me from the depth of the hell.

 

Still having nine more subjects to fight for. Go, Sherry!

We talked about our future last night. My ambition is to get to Ruffles Junior College, Princeton University(another alternate choice is Harvard), get myself a lucrative job after graduating, publish a book written in English, develop a movie, and then get married at around 30. I want a DINK(Double Income No Kid) family and two foster children - a lovely girl and a mischievous boy who resemble my future husband. Emmm.. How wonderful life would be...
