Prologue
I could still remember that in the beginning of the year, I strongly disaggree with my dad’s idea of sending me back to SGI for F6. The reason?? Most of my friends had gone. F6 is a waste of time(1 and half years!!!). And not to mention seeing “her” face again. Gosh.
I am very envy that most of my friends went for college. Taylor,Sunway,UNITEN, you name it. For once my dad asked me whether I want to go UTAR or not. I was jubilating at that time. Coz, I finally got to taste what college life is all about. But he took back those words as he thinks that F6 is more suitable for me. Sigh (sorry yea Joo Gin, kenot teman you). During Chinese New Year, my relatives came back. As we sat on the dining table (after eating) we started to chitchat about the path that I should take. As expected, my relatives 100% agree of sending me back to F6.
“Ah Keong r. Better listen to what ur dad says. He nvr wrong 1 in making decisions.”
“Ya lo. U know r? The standard of F6 is higher than Matrix and A-Levels u know??”
“Ah Keong this… Ah Keong that….”
“Ya lo. U know r? The standard of F6 is higher than Matrix and A-Levels u know??”
“Ah Keong this… Ah Keong that….”
After hearing their thoughts, I finally give in. I understand that my parents could not afford me to go for private colleges. As a result I hafta continue my next chapter of life in F6…
Welcome back to school
Its been almost six months since I left my alma mater. Nothing changes much. Just that the basketball court had been tiled up. The rest is still very much the same. As usual, students din tuck in shirt, rubbish everywhere and students wooing the new L6 gals. It can never change. Sad.
Orientation started on that day. Boring as ever. Ok, I am gonna skip that part. Orientation ended after a week. Then, I was placed in the Physics class for 3 miserable weeks!!!
My plan for F6 would be enrolling myself in the arts stream. (Account class-L6k2) I could not do that because I need a so called “kelulusan” from the JPN. To make matter worst, the peroid for F6 had been extended untill 4pm. 4pm you know!!! Kanasai le.
After the holidays, my request for changing to the arts stream was granted. But somehow, I don’t feel happy about it. Coz, Yiap,Nixon and Yew Cheong(who were supposed to join me n the account class) punya request were denied by the JPN. Therefore they have to make rayuan.This means they have to rot in the Physics class again!!!
Can anyone tell me why we need a kelulusan from JPN only you can change stream????
L6K2
When I first stepped into my new class, I was very nervous. As I stood by the class teacher, I could see 23 pairs of eyes staring at me. After telling to the form teacher that I am the new boy, I started to introduce myself…
“Hello there. My name is Hooi Mun Keong. Nice to meet you all”
There was a silence for a few seconds, before some of them satrted clapping. I was in a very awkward situation by that time(mayb for d few seconds of silence kot). I quickly scanned for a place to sit. Class ended without anyone talking to me. What a great start.
During extra class, things got “better”. Some of the girls started to talking to me, only to know that I DON’T SPEAK MANDARIN!!!. Later on, I realize that the whole class was made of(majority la) Hua Lian students. Therefore you can conclude that their daily conversation would be in Mandarin. Another great start.
I started to doubt whether I can mix with them or not. Luckily some of them can communicate in Cantonese. What a relief!!!As days goes by I started to mix with them more and more. The students in my class were super friendly and they don’t mind talking to me despite language barrier. So you can say that, I learning Mandarin everyday. Haha.
Epilogue
Its been almost 3 months now in the class. You can say that now I am very formal with them already. We are no more strangers from the dat we met. And I can say there wont be one dull moment from day 1 untill now. The class is so fun filled. I started enjoying F6 life now that even I rejected the offer that I got from the maktab.
Yiap,Nixon and Yew Cheong joined us 3 weeks after their request had been denied. They have to drive to Ipoh to get the job done.
Well, that’s how my life is.. in f6. I made countless of friends. And I had learn a lot of new stuffs. Of course have to study hard especially for account, since I had no basic in it. Hope to update more on whats goin on here in f6.
Until then, chao.
