''RIINGG''I received a call from the Invention Society informing me about my recruitment.YES! i thought to myself.I finally got a part-time job that would look good on my resume in future and pays quite well. I got myself dressed in a casual but smart outfit.Then put on some light makeup before getting out of my house one-half hours before the meeting time.I was determined to give a good impression on the society members and my future partner(who i was told i was going to meet).As i slide open my hand phone and read through the sms of the meeting area again and realized that i read the wrong timing earlier on.It was supposed to be 13:00!! Not 3:00pm!! ARGHHH i am late by half an hour!!!
*Freddy*
I asked the waiter for coffee the 5th time since i first came into the cafe 45minutes ago.Joseph sat beside me staring at the watch keeping track of time.I grew tired as i saw Joseph shaking his head once again and sighing,looking pissed off.What kind of person could my 'partner' be?I thought.It was incontrovertible that she would be......all the negative thoughts came up to me. ''I am so sorry i am late'' a soft voice suddenly got me back to reality.I looked up and saw a rather tall lady looking quite apologetic.i had to repress the negative thoughts i had as i try to be propitious and give her a second chance.I smiled rather forcefully and introduced myself.I almost smiled as she looked shocked because of my age and my status in the society. ''i guess we have to curtail the meeting''i said after i managed to repress the pride and happiness in me.Then rather quickly i told her more about the society and ultimately more about myself.After she introduced herself again we ended the meeting.I guess she is just a so-so partner with rather bad characteristics.But i guess I'll just have to make do with her. Sigh
Improving one's languages can be very easy as long as you start young.As long as the foundation is there,scoring would not be difficult.Parents should expose their children to English by reading to them and letting them watch educational shows like''Sesame Street'' (:This not only entertains the child but also improves their knowledge and English. However as we grow older,improving English skills may seem impossible.This is especially so if one's English foundation is not that good(like me).However,i believe that by using the language more often and being more exposed to English,one can actually improve his/her English skills.Improving English may take a longer period of time as compared to improving any other subjects because languages are about the exposure and usage of the language.Thus students must bear this in mind and be patient.Furthermore there must be great effort and determination in order to improve. As long as we are determined we can improve our English through many different ways.One of them would be through reading especially books that we like and are interested in.The other way would be through watching English programmes.Both can improve our English and allow us to gain knowledge at the same time. Start early if possible,if not just put in effort and be determined,it would never be too late to start. (Sorry Mr kek i know its very repetitive and weird somehow.Seems VERY unplanned :p)
I can't believe he didn't tell me earlier.After all i have been Leonce partner since my first day in Invention society.For 2 years we've been buddies and yet he told EVERYONE he was going to quit except for me.Why am i always the last to know?!I have always been calm and steady no matter what happened except for this time.But what can you expect? Knowing that being sad wouldn't make Leonce come back,I went back to my research lab in the prestigious Invention Society Building-my second home,my utopia.On the sofa sat Joseph-the president of 'IS' who greeted me as soon as i stepped in. Joseph told me about the three candidates for my partner.2 of them were already part of society.Jack the timorous little man and the society's notoriously fractious and ostentatious Tim.Both were a BIG NO-NO for a partner so I guess i found my partner.The Newbie.Frankly i did not expect to get a novice.I mean i am the vice president yet i got a novice as a partner?!This means i still need to train my partner et cetera when my priority was to research on the new project. Well at least its better than the other two candidates. sigh
'Zealous' and 'phlegmatic' would be two perfect words to describe the 18-year-old Freddy.He can be unfeeling and cold but when it comes to his most passionate subject-Science and Technology he can be a very different person.After all he is both the youngest and the also the vice-president of the prestigious ''Invention Society'' -which deals with the world's greatest engineering and sciences. His partner-Jean is the opposite of the meticulous Fred, she is often rash and gives Fred problems.Furthermore both of them do not get along well and are facing a competition with other society members.Will the two unlikely partners be able to succeed?Or will their hard work and efforts become fruitless because of their lack of chemistry?
