It’s been one year since I did the HSC yet it honestly doesn’t feel like it.
My parents say it feels like yesterday when I was anxiously waiting for my UAI and marks in general but honestly, it feels like a very long time since I did the HSC. I look at the news on the [...]

Academic Performance

EDIT: I forgot to post this a few days ago so here it is.
So I got my Uni results yesterday and were it not for my ridiculously high standards, I’d be demanding a car from my parents.
But I kid – my parents would never, ever buy me a gift as a result of my academic [...]
Show me the money.

Cue the obligatory ’sorry for not blogging’ nonsense and let’s skip straight to the actual content. At some point I’ll blog about my uni experience (because I do want to do that) but right now I want to get this off my chest.
My father and I are reasonably similar in personalities and in looks and [...]
University.

Yes I’m well aware that it has been a while but give me a break. The semester times at UNSW is strange and I’m still adjusting to a new routine. I’ve only just found some time writing this post (read: procrastination).
So obviously, I too will join the horde of bloggers choosing to post about their [...]

I have a lot of posts that I want to write about and I do have plans to do them at some point. It’s just that I have met my downloading quota and so, going to new sites confuses my internet connection which results in my computer freezing.
Ok, so the post I want to do [...]
Why would you do this to me?!

Holy crap, applying for UNSW was hard. I thought everyone was exagerrating when they said trying to get a timetable was stressful but clearly they weren’t. First of all, I couldn’t log in because the cookies in my system prevented me from doing so but since I was unaware of this, I managed to lock [...]
It’s the end of an era.

I don’t think I write enough for people to actually care but it has been a while since my last post. Perhaps the TimSun Post Syndrome is more infectious than I thought. However, as today is an important symbolic stepping stone in my life, I felt it warrants a post, albeit a relatively short one.
Today [...]
Everyone’s going to do this…

Ah the obligatory HSC post. What would we do without you? I’ve yet to read any other HSC-related posts but I’m assuming it’ll be a rollercoaster of emotions of disappointments/happiness and the possible listing of subject marks if they are actually good enough to be brag-worthy. And by brag-worthy, I mean good enough by Selective [...]

I’d just like to point out that whoever can guess the movie that the title came from gets the obligatory virtual cookie.
Well I had planned to begin this new post with a witty reference to the abundance of posts a new blogger (AKA Sean and I) posts as opposed to an old blogger (i.e, Tim Sun, Maggie, everyone [...]
Presents for everyone!

Today I went back to HAHS to give thank-you/xmas presents to my old teachers and went to do some shopping, meaning today has been a largely pleasant, relaxing day.
It was nice to have teachers look at me with genuine happy faces as opposed to their usual ‘Why are you here and haven’t I answered your [...]
