Diary
OMG… It must be kidding. What happened? Well… let me tell you.
It was THE DAY yesterday. ‘Cause the university result was supposed to come up.
So I turned on the computer at 7’o clock in the morning, and checked up the web site every 5 minutes. Yea..I couldn’t wait to see! And Guess What?!! I GOT IT!
PLUS 100% SCHOLARSHIP!! (It’s about 4900USD per semester)
Oh, you may not know how much I was happy & excited.
It means I am gonna start a college life since coming March.
I messaged some of my friends, and ex-teachers in full of excitement.
Moreover, I sent an email to one professor of Solbridge, who informed me several things throughout the preparation for the admission.
I expressed my gratitude and asked him to recommend me some books so that I can read some in advance. As you may imagine, I was the happiest girl in the world all day yesterday!!
However! This morning, I have had an early breakfast (I got up early) and opened an email box.
There was a response from the professor of Solbridge, which begins with;
“Congratulations! You have got very high score on your interview…….”
Haha!! See? He said I did well.
And he continued;
“A number of students who especially studied in arts field-oriented school tend to suffer with our Calculus class. Although we are making Pre-Calculus class for those students, I assume that it wouldn’t be sufficient. It will certainly be helpful to study at least basic Calculus in advance.”
Well..I had no idea what exactly Calculus was. So I asked dad.
“Dad, is Calculus difficult?”
“It’s probably the most difficult subject in Math. Why do you ask so?”
“I think I must learn that for a month.”
“No way. What for?”
“It seems I have no choice but take Calculus class in Solbridge.”
“Then why don’t you look at some examples first?”
He showed me some indeed……
What I thought was…’what is this alien language?!’
It felt as if the blue sky suddenly filled with a bleak cloud.
Yes. I have very weak knowledge on Math.
Nevertheless, a happy feature of a misfortune was dad and my sister claimed that they will help me out with this. So….I will just go for it!!
One of my favorite quotations goes; (I forgot who said this)
Nothing is impossible. Some things are just less likely.
PS. I posted three essays I wrote for university application. Feel free to read them.
Baduk or Calculus
