Today, I wanna talk about the VIP day that me and my parents attended on last Friday. What is VIP day? VIP stands for Very Important Parents :D So, VIP day is Very Important Parents day. In other words, it is a Parents-Teachers meeting. Yeah, a meeting between parents and lecturers to discuss about the performance of their children in school. I came with both my parents. Honestly, I was kind of nervous. My grades are okay but not as good as my parents wanted. I was scared of being scolded. But thanks to the comments from the lecturers, I'm survived! Most of the comments were the positive ones.
Here are some that I managed to recall:
History lecturer:
She is a talented student in my class. I'm very happy with her result but I believe she can scores with better grade in the future. I'm so impressed with her hidden talent in acting during the role-play competition that help her to develop her confidence. Good work and keep it up. (Extra comments: Stop watching Japanese dramas, etc. Practice more on time management)
Geography lecturer:
Has good potential but has not shown her full potential. Needs to do some reevaluation and set priorities right. A lot of diligence and some essential sacrifices need to be made immediately. (Extra comments: Get rid of anything that distracting too. Including all the Japanese dramas and stuffs. You are very good in acting. You played your role well during the drama performance last year. Very good. You have a lot of potential. Do more group discussion)
English Language (EAS) lecturer:
Ariake, you just about managed to pass in the APR, but it's too close a call for you to feel completely secure. Work on honing your analytical skills and read the passage thoroughly to avoid any misunderstandings. (Extra comments: You are too quiet in class. Try to ask more questions if you anything you don't understand. You are very dedicated students. You work really hard but it seems not enough. I will make an appointment 'one one one' with you and we will go through the past years questions papers together. Tell me when you have free time) *I did really bad at this subject*
Sociology lecturer:
An excellent grade from Ariake-san this time around. This is quite a drastic increase from the previous tests. Whatever it is you did in preparation for this test is definitely working. Keep up the pace and I am certain you will see grades much better than this. Well done. (Extra comments: Ariake-san has shown remarkable progress since the last few APRs. The grade she has achieved now is a wonderful start to her upper sixth year. This shows that you are more than capable of achieving excellent grades like this. My only advice for you is to continue whatver it is you did in preparation for this test and I can guarantee that your examination and eventually A-level grades will beone you can be proud of. The only danger now is that you become too comfortable with the grade you receive and stop working towards improvement. Keep this in mind as the year goes on. Well done.) *I love my Socio lecturer! He said his prediction for my June AS is a B*
I think I done well this time :) Because I passed all the four subjects and Sociology is...the one I got the best grade. I'm so happy. Oh ya, did you notice that two of my lecturers complimented my acting? HA-HA! Should I just become an actress when I grow up? :P Just kidding.
Okay, what's next?
Oh, THE SHOOTING! I'm not sure if I have tell you guys about this or not but I was proposed to join in a drama shooting which started yesterday :D It was the same friend that asked me to join the dancing performance for Korean Culture Club. This time she asked another help from me. She got a project for one of her subjects and that project is to make a short movie for her presentation. I quickly agreed! Well, I just love this kind of thing. The shooting started yesterday and I'm given a role as a bad student who influenced her friend to take drugs! Wow? Hahah. Not hard because this kind of role is the kind that I like the most. Like a Yankee! Hahah. It was not really that embarrassing since the other co-stars are also my friends. We did it smoothly yesterday. Next shooting will be on again soon. I'm looking forward to the output.
Yesterday, I also had a little conversation with Jun-kun (my junior in college and also a JUMPer). He's really friendly and O talked comfortably with him. We talked about how we found out about Hey!Say!JUMP, which member that we first liked and anime and a lot of other things.
On last Monday, there was a meeting for the Japanese Club in my college. The session was Language so our president taught us some japanese words that are usually use in conversation. The funny thing is he made a lot of mistake and I was always the one that corrected him (with the help from Suki-chan) since I've learnt Japanese for a year already. I love it when the other members were like, "Wow! This is cool! A debate between the president and...a member (me)!" They even told me to go to the front which I politely declined. During that session, I have successfully showed off my charm. Hahah!
Today (Wednesday, 18th April 2012), a lot of funny things happened too. A close friend of mine (a not-so-big-fan of Yaotome Hikaru), hmm...let's just call her Haru, is actually just fell in love around last week. She told me that she bumped into this one 'CUTE' guy at college. According to her description, he is cute, masculine, handsome man. She fell in love at first sight. And for the whole she had been looking for him and he was nowhere to be found so me and my other friends always teased her saying that the guy she bumped into was actually just an illusion. An imaginary man. Hahah. But, something unexpected happened today when me and her went to the dining hall to buy lunch. Haru suddenly grabbed my left arm and held me tight! She was like...screaming silently. It was so funny! Her reaction! Haha. It was actually that guy! She finally found him!!! Yes, that imaginary man! Wait, he IS REAL! hahaha. Haru was sooooo HAPPY! And she couldn't stop talking about him even when we were in class. But, I don't see anything cute or handsome about that guy. Well, different people, different perspective :)
Anyway, yesterday. I saw a shocking picture on Tumblr! It is a picture of Hey!Say!JUMP's Yaotome Hikaru and he was smoking! I was like, "What the heck...!?" Hahaha xD But it's not a big deal. It's NORMAL. Plus, Hikaru had already reached the legal age in Japan. But, I still hope he would stop soon because it's not healthy! ><
I think that's all for now :D
