@LokiJr, ang sabi nya buti na lang nag review ako, he he he...yun iba nahirapan, may paulit ulit na dun taga meralco ENS-employee sponsorship (Employee Nomination Scheme) raw yun at twice na naka take nahihirapan sabi "kahit 5.0 lang band nya masaya na raw kasi August pa raw yun sponsorship at pina extend lang. Hmmm...kaya nga puzzled ako sa hubby ko madali lang daw?...taka ako, eh...ano kaya yun?...yung writing raw nya na review nya yung mismo topic na binigay sa kanya kaya lang yung second topic although alam nya sagutin kinapos sya sa time at sa closing minadali nya...sabi ko nga sa kanya baka naman okey nga band score hindi naman ma-sakto sa 65pts. yung point systems natin...
Depende na nga yan sa magtse check, tama ka @icebreaker...bahala na si LORD, at least my husband already done his job...GODBLESS to all of us!!!

@katlin924 @heyits7me_mags @icebreaker1928 pasensya, magulo tanong ko. Gusto sanang i-compare kung ilang days magsend ng confirmation email (receipt of docs & payment) ang BC sa Pinas. Dito kasi sa Middle East sobrang tagal ata. Nagsend ako ng docs and payment thru courier last Dec 5 and then nareceive nila ng Dec 6. Kaso wala pang confirmation email. Pero nakausap ko na yong ielts advisor yesteday dito at ang sabi INSHALLAH (musta naman yon di ba? hehe). I believe si @mark_y nagsend sa akin ng listening materials, tapos si Christmarie sa philippines.au nagsend ng reading materials ata yon. Actually, intro pa lang ang nabasa at narinig ko sa binigay nila. Mahilig kasi akong mag-cram. Anyway, salamat sa kanila. Marami palang mga review materials din sa internet. I-google nyo lang. Pero ngayon sa youtube lang ako nag-aaral. ang dami dun. lahat na ata ng klase andun.
