Back Where We Started
Written on Wednesday, September 17, 2008 by Jason Wee
I bet most people heard that we lost, badly. Not even top 5. And makes it worse our room mates got 1st. Permatang Pauh got first. The region under Mr. Anwar Ibrahim... Interesting? Joking joking. There's no connection.
So yar we lost, but as most know, our school has been adopted by Microsoft. But most don't know how the hell we got adopted.
So it all started from, Robotics. Last year, the Open team lost during National like we had just did. But for some reason, they saw potential in them, and said if they found their own sponsor, they could go to Taiwan.
So the mothers of the participant, the great Puan Anita and Aunt Jean, went of searching. So, they approached Microsoft. They had agreed to sponsor the team, and they went to Taiwan, and they got Silver while the team that won in the National, got nothing.
So now, we haven't got invited yet, but we are expecting we are gonna. But in this, we are taken advantage of, why?
Our country, supports LOW budget for robotics. We only can send ONE team per category. While for example, Singapore has HIGH budget, and sends the maximum amount of team per category, which is FIVE.
So, they are taking advantage of us how? Buy not letting us win, and still inviting us to go to Japan, they can send TWO teams there, and pay for the price of one.
BUT, still the consideration, we sucked at the National, and comes to my title, we're back where we started. Why?
Cause we are thinking of changing the title. What more our team. And no, I am not gonna be kicked out. As from my previous post, Bob can't handle it, and Richard needs to be in.
If Richard is not, he shouldn't help cause his exams are in hello? around 1 month only?
So yes, this is a totally outrage of headaches.
And again, IM SO NOT GETTING ENOUGH SLEEP.
For one, I barely even sleep on Monday night.
Last night, Tuesday night, I only slept at 2 and woke up at 8. While Shun woke up at.. 11++?
WHY did I wake up so early?
Cause of Permatang Pauh.
Their teachers came in to the room! So this female big mouth teacher starts talking damn load right next to me, it goes into my simuli system and causes me to wake up. And when I first saw them,
I almost said " What the F***?"
But thank God I was too tired to say anything.
Then she appologise and they quickly leaved. And the whole room to myself and Shun! But he's asleep and I started packing. No fun.
Frustrating.
I need coffee. I'm becoming an addict. Back to school, oh my gawd.
