I went to Singapore Polytechnic today and boy, I was impressed! We had the choice of either going to Ngee Ann Polytechnic or Singapore Polytechnic, and of course I chose the latter, since everyone has already been to Ngee Ann Polytechnic for projects, enrichments, that well, it starts to seem a little boring to me. The praises seems to just gradually fade away with each comment.
So well, it was huge (but I heard Ngee Ann Polytechnic was larger), and, I'm really impressed with their facilities, their friendliness. And of course, going there made me feel like "Hey, I'm a Sec 4 already!". Somewhat, I feel very much mature, (maybe it's because all of them are like adults there).
But yeahh, it has extremely nice exhibitions (especially the "Musical Robots").
So yeah, I'm exited to leave my secondary school (LOL!). This open house made me redecide my choice of going to JC (JCs are a lot smaller, and since they're like the "studying lot", I have this impression that they'll be like "Oh hi, welcome to ... ... oh what..? yeah yeah, welcome to xxx JC".)
But anyway, I really like to be part of the open house in Polytechnics, basically because it's like "Hey, I'm one of them, ask me if you have any questions!". It's like you have a sense of responsibilitiy, power.
But the chances of going to University from Polytechnics are slimmer, that, I'm afraid of.
Anyway, I need to complete AT LEAST 60 hours of CIP (I have done 25 hours over the past 3 years, and now I need to complete 35 hours more CIP in this one year, what a joke...) in order to -1 point in my "O" level results (the lesser you have, the better).
The maximum you can minus is 2, and 2 more if you are taking Higher Mother Tongue.
And I need to ask my teacher before I can attempt any external CIP (such as helping out in Libraries).
And plus, I have to cope with my lessons, CCA, enrichment programs (they usually have a lot, in an attempt to help you increase your CIP hours), peer tutoring, QAMS, D&D (a study camp, LOL). Wow, what a schedule.
Till I free myself from my busy studyweek~
