My College Life Has Begun

. I AM OFFICIALLY A STUDENT AGAIN .


Hmm.. after a very . . VERY long post-SPM break , I really didn't feel like lifting my butt off to college and to study again . I stayed in UM for only one night as I was offered for another sort-of-like scholarship . It's a loan actually , a convertable one offered by MARA .

So , HERE I AM , AN INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE STUDENT OF MARA COLLEGE BANTING .

After much browsing and inquiring about this college , I bared in my mind of what I was getting myself into . On my way to the college for the first time , the car kept on going far away from home . And it's not really near to Pekan Banting but kat hulu mana tah . Even my mom's GPS had hard time finding this place . When we got nearer , all we could see was hutan kelapa sawit kiri kanan . Even the signboard that showed KOLEJ MARA BANTING was so small and we could hardly see it . Aish tak boleh kecik lagi ke ? -_-

Once we've got there , my first impression was :
"BOARDING SCHOOL"
*sigh*
It was a good thing that I had expected it to be that way . Otherwise I'd be shocked if i had expected it to be  so like Hogwarts .
Like one my friends here , first she heard about MARA College Banting , she was like gahhhhh it would be so cool . 'Cause it's MARA's and it's for IB students kann . . So as she got here , she was like "ohmyy I can't believe this . ."


As we arrived , I collected myself  to the registration process . After much hustle and bustle of the whole registration thingy , the students were allowed to go to the hostel and unpack our things .

My room . It's not much but . . umm . yeahh . . not much .
( Luckily Mama bought me a very nice bed sheet and comforter . At least there's some elements of home there )

Some other facilities : Laundry service , pavillion ( a field actually , name je nak gempak sikit ) , basketball court , badminton court , tennis court , Pusat rekreasi , gym , dance studio , music room , concourse , Koperasi , KFC (nu'uh , bukan Kentucky Fried Chicken weh , it's KOPERASI FOOD COURT . gahh)
ect . ect . .

I'm currently adapting myself here with all these simplicites , and this new environment around me . They say IB is freakin' tough , jiwa akan digoncang-goncang , don't play play , menempah maut , the longest 2 years of my life ,  yada yada . PERGHH memang nak bagi orang cuak ke hape nih . SO , hopefully I can survive doing IB , and get it finished without losing the complete sane of my mind .
