the car reversed into the car porch of my house on a lazy saturday afternoon (it was yesterday. i forgot to add this into my last entry.). carrying my bag full of math stuff (i just came back from math tuition), i carried myself into the living room. feeling very tired, my eyes rolled onto the dinning table. sitting comfortably on the glass top of the beautiful european round table was a letter from the college board. it was my sat score! although i never thought sat was important as i wanted to further my studies in the uk where sat was not an entry criteria, my heart started to pound very fast.
"hey mummy, what do you think my sat score will be?" i asked excitedly.
"my guess would be about a thousand odd." my mother replied nonchalantly.
"if i get above 1200, i would definitely apply for a us university!" i said, eyes fixed on the envelope.
i opened the envelope with care and slowly. with ever tear, my heart beat increased exponentially. finally, when i took out the sat score, it was written: "440 for verbal, 720 for math"
oh my gosh, that would mean a total of (let me see, 440 + 720. what's 440 + 720?? why! i can't even do a simple arithmetic sum now!)...
"1160." my sister cut in quickly. (yeah i know, this little sister of mine is another math powerhouse.)
never did i expect myself to get 1160. i was above my expectation, in case you are wondering. i thought i would get around 900. haha! i know, that's being low in self-esteem. but you can't expect me to get so high a score, considering the fact that i knew nuts about the paper format and did not do a single sat paper until that fateful day (1 November 2003).
ok, some might feel that my sat score is just mediocre. but to me, a score of 1160 is definitely satisfying enough. i can safely say that i am not going to re-take it. so now, sat and project work are off my list. let's celebrate! hurray!
