SAT writing

3!!3!!3!! Everytime Madam Ong gives back the marked essays, it has not been any more disappointing. I'm stuck with this stupid number.

First of all I dont understand what is thesis statement. What are the essential vitamins for introduction? How many examples do I need to give? These were the things pondering in my mind until came Jason Leong.

Jason Leong is superb. Practically all the essays that he wrote scored 6!madness!! so I borrowed his essays and broke down his sentence structures. I found out that there is a fixed patern in his writing. Simple yet insightful..

I cant really post his essay patern because I have not tried it. This coming Saturday, will decide whether that patern is my key for atleast 5 or its just another 3.

some forwarded email from jit yang

Few days ago, I received 2 emails from my friend Jit Yang. Those 2 emails really caught my attention as I have to agree to most of the points or maybe in some cases, the word facts might be the correct term to use.

The first is about girls and the second is about guys

GIRL'S secrets
When a GIRL is quiet ... millions of things are running in her mind..



When a GIRL is not arguing ... she is thinking deeply.



When a GIRL looks at u with eyes full of questions ... she is wondering how
long you will be around.



When a GIRL answers ' I'm fine ' after a few seconds ... she is not at all
fine.


When a GIRL stares at you she is wondering why you are lying.



When a GIRL lays on your chest .. she is wishing for you to be hers forever.



When a GIRL wants to see you everyday... she wants to be pampered.



When a GIRL says ' I love you ' .. she means it.



When a GIRL says ' I miss you ' .... no one in this world can miss you more than
that.



Life only comes around once make sure u spend it with the right person ....



Find a guy .. who calls you beautiful instead of hot.

who calls you back when you hang up on him.

who will stay awake just to watch you sleep. Wait for the guy who ... kisses
your forehead.

Who wants to show you off to the world when you are in your sweats.

Who holds your hand in front of his friends.

Who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares about you and how lucky he
is to have you.

Who turns to his friends and says, ' That's her!! '

The Man Rules
At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down



Finally
, the guys' side of the story. (Must admit, it's pretty good.)
We always hear"the rules" - From the female side.

Now here are the rules from the male side.



These are our rules!
Please note.. these are all numbered "1 "
ON PURPOSE!

1. Men are NOT mind readers. We really do NOT know or “should know”.

1. Learn to work the toilet seat.
You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down before you seat.
We need it up; you need it down ……
You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.

1. Sunday sports It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides.
Let it be.

1. Crying is blackmail.

1. Ask for what you want……
Let us be clear on this one:
Subtle hints do not work!
Strong hints do not work!
Obvious hints do not work!
Just say it!

1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.

1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do.
Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.

1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument.
In fact, all comments become Null and void after 7 Days.

1. If you think you're fat, you probably are.
Don't ask us.

1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one

1. You can either ask us to do something Or tell us how you want it done.
Not both.
If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.

1. Whenever possible, Please say whatever you have to say during commercials..

1. Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we.

1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings.
Peach, for example, is a fruit, not A color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.

1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.

1. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," We will act like nothing's wrong.
We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.

1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, Expect an answer you don't want to hear.

1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine..Really

1. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as football or motor sports

1. You have enough clothes.

1. You have too many shoes.

1. I am in shape. Round IS a shape!

1. Shopping – Men are from Mars, please ask the sales lady if it beautiful.
We see ladies in mud fight beautiful.

1. Yes we mean it when we say you are always beautiful in our eyes.

1. Thank you for reading this.
Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight;

But did you know men really don't mind that? It's like camping.

Pass this to as many men as you can to give them a laugh.

Pass this to as many women as you can -to give them a bigger laugh


p.s im not a sexist..i respect women

A BRIEF STORY ON WHY SAT IS HARD

I think i know who makes the SAT questions. Im not a sexist but im sure that it is a group of guys. How do I know? Well, its too simple. Ill give you a clue. This people want to give us a taste of their experience in a symbolic way.

still havent get it? You see, this bunch of guys experienced or might experiencing love failure just because they just dont understand girls. so they make critical reading passages like girls. Indecipherable passages. They want us to feel what they are encountering, but in a different mean. Let me show you in equations:

CRITICAL READING = GIRLS

GIRLS = INDECIPHERABLE

therefore, CRITICAL READING = INDECIPHERABLE

so, SAT IS HARD.

SAT can never be easy. Not in this generation because girls can never be understood.

p.s if you are a girl, there's only one thing that I have to remind you. Truth hurts.

SAT & My Dog

Just like training a dog, SAT preparation requires Patience and Love.
If your efforts pay off and you get 700+ for Critical Reading, its like seeing your dog wagging its tail when you call its name.

But my dog peed on my bed and bit me.

So, screw SAT?
For the sake of our application, we cannot do that.
Lets just think positive and work very very hard, and try to Love SAT.
PengTsu and Belinda are good, so are we. Yeah, we can get good scores as well!
