Help Psychology Challenge 2009
i participated in tis competition last month when i accidentally came across their ads in the newspaper.. wat u have to do is write an essay with title "how can psychology help young people to achieve their full potential in life?" n ans some simple ques then email it to them. 30 candidates will be selected n move on to the final round which was held in Help University itself. kinda suprised when they called me n say u have been chosen to be the top30. im drivin tat time. haha.. a big THANK YOU to my dear kawan baik ni-ko-la-tong for checkin my essay for grammatical errors yang teramat banyak lebih dari sekali (normal is lebih banyak sekali :P) n also to shaun tamiya for his effort to look thru my essay n commentin on it. i think if it wasnt for his comments, i wont be in the finals.
the final is on sat..so i went up to kl on fri after skool...alone~ luckily i have a place to stay...thanks alex~~~~ for guidin tis kampung boy alone in kl..haha.. he fetched me from somewhere then go makan n balik to rest.. woke up at around 7smtg n get ready to go to Help uni..met alot of ppl dere..from around malaysia..one was from Sri Lanka.. so we sat in the lecture hall..ermmm can i say kinda proud to be in mhs bcuz when the lecturer introduce me, he mentioned my skool n say "hmmm..a very famous skool"...so we have to stuff 1 yr of lecture in a 4hours lecture into our brain.. it was tirin....
the test was...diff.. its an open book test based on the notes u have taken down urself.. 3rounds, each round wil be have a series of ques. they wil display one ques at a time on the screen n ur given 10sec to raise ur ans (they gave us 5 cards wit labels A-E). the trick is there might be more than 1 ans or no ans at all. some ques wil have 3 correct ans n ur suppose to raise all 3 cards to earn points.. 1 wrong ans wil cause u one point. if dere r no ans, ur suppose to raise ur card wit the blank page showin up. well i managed to get to round 2 only..cuz most of the time i raise 1 ans only when they are 2 or 3..
in round 3, top 3 wil be chosen n they r suppose to present their essays to the judges.. eric bryan was one of the judge..hail lasallian! so after the competition, its prize givin ceremony n finalist from diff rounds wil get diff prizes..luckily im in round 2.. round 1 wil leave u wit a plastic bag and a book..round 3 wil leave u wit 3books (accordin to my fren its 3 exercise books). n ROUND 2 wil leave u wit this
it was a fun n informative experience to me.. i get to know more bout psychology n im considerin to take tis course after stpm....but im stil considerin :D n ya..terima kasih teramat banyak to shaun again..he came n get me to the bus station.. so tar-ched.. terima kasih banyak banyak!!
