IIT course

Yesterday, we went to the centre to pay for my course. It was like an hour's journey from my house. At one point of the journey, i was the only one awake! At the centre, i learnt that out of 16 people in this city who took the test, 10 got selected and out of the ten, 3 did exceptionally well and got scholarship for the course (like 10, 25 and 35 % off) . I didn't get the scholarship. It's good enough that i got selected for it. I'm now very much convinced that this test is worth the 400 rupees($16) i paid for it. The first thing is the transparency and honesty of the examiners. The second thing is that the papers are sent to a far away place in India(Delhi) for marking. The entire course costs about S$950. Quite expensive, in this country. Especially when the classroom quality is so poor. Well, i'll just wait till the materials arrive. I've got to take several bags to the place on the first day to carry back all the materials. 4 hours per day, all weekdays, and they don't give holidays during public holidays. That's good for me since i want to get it done before my a level results are out. I don't want to be stuck here. Another thing is that i've a marriage to attend on the first week of february and so i'll miss 5 lessons there.
We wen t shopping during the evening. It was so tiring. I don't mind salking here and there, but the worst thing is waiting for my mom for like 30 minutes till she chooses the clothes.
