HAPPY HOLS!

Good evening SMSAnians...

Shout out to all students who attended the careers briefing last Thursday,we hope that all of you had gained information that will help you for next year before or post-results. Anyway, just wondering because not all who signed up through email came for the briefing so I'm just wondering whether you signed up for the briefing or for the teacher assistant position that I posted. Please state clearly in your email why you are providing your details to me.

Also, to students who signed up their details for BSP scholarship but did not provide your qualifying results, please do so via email.

Not to mention, I am officially on leave today!!! I will be back from the UK on 17th so if any of you emailed me, please be patient till I am back in Brunei to reply. To SMSAnians in the UK, when are you coming down to london so you can all treat me for hot mocha? :D

HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Holidays....or not?!!

Good morning people...

Can you smell the fresh air? the free-polluted surroundings? Yes, it has been a VERYYYY long academic year but phew! it is finally December! So what's your plan? lounge around at home because you deserve it after 2 years of torture and suffering from A levels? That's one option or you can be productive and start working on and preparing for next year. To those of you who have recently finished your exams..think about what your next plan of action is> continue your studies? work? get married? what is it????!!! You and ONLY you are able to answer that :D

I have been receiving tons of email after my last post and thank you to all students who have emailed or made the efforts to come to school to visit us and ask questions regarding options for next year.

I apologise for not replying to your mails sooner as it has been a hectic week and also hotmail is not working properly so I'll be replying your mails via my yahoo account.

The careers office will be open during the holidays from 1st to 8th December 2012, 8.00 am - 12.00 pm. So please feel free to drop by for consultation and such at our office (WE HAVE MOVED!), first floor Library. 

By the way, if you are unsure of what courses or universities to apply for, please do visit us as we are giving away brochures and prospectuses for FREE so first come, first serve. 

Please regularly check this blog for updates over the week
