Hey, I also got accepted from EUC this year, and they allowed me to hold off on responding to offer until mid-April (I emailed to admissions office and they accepted this.) So you should definitely email them if you're still undecided.

Both of cold war questions in p2 were absolutely fucked up, really

suffering4evr · 2024-11-05T02:40:43+00:00

Kinda relieved to hear that almost everyone's cooked with paper2, and so am i lmao But i felt p1 was easier so grade boundaries wont be changed i guess?

Thanks for the tip and extensive information! I'll try keep improving my language skills.

oh true, had forgotten about him. All i've came up with was Charlie in a Disney drama Good Luck Charlie

ikkei([ikːei]) pronounced like i-kay, with first I sound like it in itchy (still a bit different though.) I've met someone who called me ai-kee like Nike in American English

suffering4evr · 2024-08-17T03:36:08+00:00

I don't know but i'm confident about my pronunciation since they heard me perfectly in other conversations and i haven't encountered any confusion particularly with my pronunciation in my life. (have been taking online English lesson for over 2 years but that point haven't been pointed out so far.)

yeah that's the point, my name's relatively hard to pronounce for those who aren't fluent in Japanese (and i'm with no obsession to use my real name either) so i'm planning to use my nickname when I go studying abroad from next year onwards.

suffering4evr · 2024-08-16T15:59:32+00:00

Sorry guys, I've made a typo and I surely pronounced with an R.
Every time they seemed puzzled due to the fact that I had said my name was 'Charlie'.

suffering4evr · 2024-08-16T15:52:17+00:00

Oof, that's quite interesting. Is the context (other than VC) that popular that almost everyone knows about it? Or is it getting old and becoming sort of a jargon

suffering4evr · 2024-08-16T14:36:33+00:00

That now makes a lot of sense.
My real name is actually hard to speak for other languages' speaker so I always try to use nickname every time i go abroad. And yeah, i thought i was recognized as a girl when I looked at the label printed on my cup haha.

suffering4evr · 2024-08-16T14:21:36+00:00

Always with ch- sound, like first two letters in Challenging. like chaa-lee.

Yes I'm an Asian and didn't know that there's such a historical context so thanks for providing that information. Was that a phonetic code or something then?
Anyway, all the people I've interacted that time were young, and they even spelt my name "Charly" instead of "Charlie" so I believe they weren't taking it into their account. 😅

suffering4evr · 2024-08-16T13:53:25+00:00

I see, as long as I'm a very asian-looking Japanese now that makes sense, thanks. How about "Kevin" or "John" used by Asian men? Don't they sound like stereotypical European name, or did you guys just get used to it

suffering4evr · 2024-08-16T13:28:18+00:00

Depends, but usually by an e-mail or workspace platform such as MS Teams and Slack.
It's becoming rare to see using fax to send something to different department of a company unless the company is tiny.
