i think those who get accepted to ivies are beyond amazing. <3
so pinkpau, you are incredible! :O

i hope they'd revamp the m'sian education system for the future generation. like seriously, seriously do something about it. not just "planning" cuz i believe the malaysian education system also plays a part in hampering our chances in entering US colleges.

for example, sylvanna was once a fighter of spoon-feeding has now succumbed to the lures of the amazing spoon-feed process that she's mentally become a plushie.

Hi Su Ann,
I'm Veronica. Actually I'm a parent, so I guess I am different kind of "fan" altogether. Ya, I said fan cos you really have a great following and judging by the intensity of the work you put in to help others with their applications, I'd say you deserve it :)
I am a VERY involved parent in that I do a LOT of research because I need to.... have 4 kids to put through college and not enough money:(
Anyway, I'm writing to say thanks for all the work you've put in. I've gained a lot from you. I'd just like to say that although I didn't go to uni in the states, I have been through 1 application and am going through the second with my son AND I visited my daughter's uni, so I guess I can be of SOME help to people who really are at a loss la - so, I'm offering to help those in KL, can drop me a note and arrange to meet, can be KLCC or some place like that la.

The 2nd reason I'm writing is to exclaim, "What a small world" I met Suet Li, your friend's convict in arms back in KL just this year and am so amused so see our small world!

Boy, looks like I'm writing a blog here! Sorry for the looonnngg comment.

i'm considering applying to US colleges and your guide has been awesome at giving me a clearer picture of the app process. thank you sosooo much pinkpau!! or su ann? hehe. you're awesome :) btw, is cheerleading considered an important activity in US colleges? now, i've done my research, and.. i don't think it is. just wanna be sure, because i'd really love to continue cheerleading competitively in college. thank you again!

oh, and i gather you did ADTP? were you from taylor's?

lol. o, nope, i'm not in taylor's. am at inti-uc nilai here, which is considered better. hehe, fyi, jpa does offer scholarship to the states, but they don't say anything about it. it depends on what you've chosen during ur application. so far, the ones who applied for computer science, science, engineering, actuarial science - they all get a fair shot to get to US unis. i'm under applied science programs here. =] hee... haha, currently rescheduling for next sem, and it's crazy how we have to avoid class clashes. argh. happy belated b'day, btw! was it on the 5th??

Luckily when i was applying.. i only had to do ONE essay.. but it meant combining all the aforementioned in a very concise manner...

Hey pinkpau,
i remember you were debating about putting up your blog address or mentioning your blog on your essays... did you end up doing that? just asking out of interest because i'm not planning to apply or anything. :P
