Excited? Sad?

Monday, December 26th, 2005

Tomolo i m going back to spore liao. I feel excited but at the same time i feel depressed. Saya ada sedikit keberatan after spending 1-whole month in Msia. I will miz my family, relatives, frienz, food, climate, lovely house ……everything lar. I admit tat i hav reali enjoyed my holidays here. Enuf is enuf. The moment to say byebye to holidays will finali come. There is no escape of it. Tat s why i m sad. But then too many holidays make me uncomfortable cause i like to keep myself busy. Haha … kinda hapi tat term is going to start soon. I believe tat i hav charged up myself and i m ready to take up the challenge next year! Starting a new life in a new year. Dunno why i like changes very much. I m going to change new room wif new roommate (I hav been wondering who is tat). I m going to go new skul wif new classmates. I m going to hav much more challenging and "fun" subjects??!! Haha … everything is new. I cant sit still when i think about planning my new year. May be this is called excitement bah?! Still, i cant pen down my new year resolutions yet cause i m still blurred about wat i m going to hav next year.
Everyone is moving at their own pace and own direction liao. Some of my friends r going NS, some r going overbroad, some r remaining in their own skul to study higher edu, some stop?!(not sure)… No matter where they go, i hope everything will be fine for them and hope it is plain sailing for them to go thru them.^_^

Basically, i celebrated Xmas wif my family. My family is kinda big though mine is nucleus one. My father side has got more than 20 family members while my mom side has got more than 20 either. So, lunch was eaten wif my mom’s side family and dinner was eaten wif my dad’s side family ler. Wah … I reali cant fancy tat there r so many children. I think it was last year they were given birth. Kinda hapi to c all of them. N, quite hapi to sit together and hav meal wif my long-time-no-c relatives. We chatted about our life and greeted each other. Hope they hav a prosperous new year and hope everything goes well lar. Meet them next year CNY … ^_^ I like reunion veri much. It is the same wif gatherings wif old friends. We can grap any topics from the sky to chat about, from recent topics to gossips ..haha. Christmas is ending soon. Day is passing fast. Got to treasure the remaining days. ^_^

Last day in Daybreak liao

Saturday, December 24th, 2005

Reali feel berat to say goodbye to them liao. I hav been doing community service there since the middle of my skul holidays. So, pluz altogether i think i hav done more than 40 hrs. But i m not concerned wif the accumulated hrs of course. But then i still wanna to meet the skul requirement first lar. Actuali the disabled ppl are not wat the other ppl think lar. A visitor asked me, "r the disabled ppl here r given special medicine everday??". Aikx … wat was she thinking about ar?? Daybreak is not hospital ok … They r not given this kind of treatment. They r given love and work opportunity there. Though sometimes they kena scoldings and beatings from trainers. Actuali they r very cute one … when i asked them the questions on body parts, they would give all kinds of funny answers tat will make u hapi ( i m not teasing them). I juz feel tat they r ignorant and cute and pure. AIya … will miz them very much lar. I will go back to do community service again. And, i will introduce it to other Malaysian scholars. Haha …they will be extremely angry wif me at the end of their community service in Daybreak. Kaka … i dun mean tat the job in Daybreak is diff and troublesome lar. The jobs r kinda challenging. Aikx … i hav done enuf teaching, couching when they r doing contract work, fixing tables …haha …the incharge said tat next time she gonna to give me more challenging one ..kaka …she must be kidding! Anyway happi working wif the trainers and trainees there. ^_^

Cont. Day 1 + Trip to Penang AGAIN

Monday, December 19th, 2005

Cont. from previous: After a rest of 15 minutes, we continued wif our second games : the MIRROR. It is a game tat allows u to think clearly of ur wrongdoings all these years. Firstly we listed down all the things we hav done which disadvantage other ppl, then we were paired up. The games started wif members A first. Members B acted like mirrors, doing nothing but juz using their ears to hear wat members A said. Members A had to shout out their wrongdoings. Later the games would change bit by bit lar of course. Members B would answer members A by saying "Oh, 是吗?" If u were us
at tat time, u will definitely feel STABBED!! U will feel startled by the reply as if it is the voice of ur heart. I think it is because the reply had reali hurt us so much. The answer reali bury down our spirit to change ourselves initially. But then, when u think about it, when someone talk negative about u, u will be more determined and persevered to do it (cause u might wanna to obtain recognition from the one who tease u). Then, members A had to voice out their determination to duel wif their problems while members B will give their supports by saying "ADD OIL!". Wah … wat i felt at that moment: i was reali motivated by wat B said to me. I felt tat i hav to be responsible for wat i said to myself which is determined to correct myself. Some of our camp members cried. Maybe this games had touched their inner world very much. U know wat?! Due to the fact tat old members got to help those new members mah, i had tried my very best to "wake" up those who partnered wif me by shouting as loud as i can. In the end, i brought sufferings to myself. Haha … my throat almost dried liao …. sigh, i could no longer voice anything after tat. (Kaka). Then we had our dinner and rest. Wah …………. it seems tat i still cannot finish my Day 1. Sigh.
Yesterday, i went to 温馨苑 (Penang) firstly for the sake of giving support for my mom who was attending a camp there (which i had joined be4) and secondly receiving certificate from the centre. Actuali i had been long waiting for this moment liao. I have been doing the homework assigned by the centre. U will surely ask : wat s so special about the cert??!! Actuali this is one of the special feature of the camp tat i joined 3 months ago. This camp is called "自我积极开拓课程" organized by 温馨苑 where there are a grp of lecturers who r very committed to contribute their service to anyone and hv a high voluntarily spirit to help those in problems. Everyone in the world can onli join this camp for once in their lifetime. They r not allowed to join for second time (unless they can come for revision on 3rd day onli). And, usually not more than 25 students in a class (lecturers can look after their students in the way mah, one good point for the camp!). Besides, the camp is organized every month (i think so??!!). So, it is not surprising tat the camp tat i joined was 236th. Haha … astonished?? The lecturers hav been cultivating LOVE in those who joined the camp be4 and helping them to "pulang ke pangkal / 回头是岸".In addition, the camp has their assesment itself. After the camp, the students dun get their cert in the end (usually most camps do tat). They got to do their homework for 3 months. N, they got to find someone to watch over them and ask for their comments. Then, they hav to submit them and let the centre to look thru them and certify them. Final step is juz waiting. Whether u get the cert or not is another thing liao. So hapi tat i can get the cert. This means tat i gain recognition from the centre for my hardwork. I can persist until now cause i make the cert as my ultimate goal. Cause of this goal, it serves as one motivation to me to keep going. Wah .. it is not easy. Sometimes, i stop doing it. In the ceremony of completion of course of my mom, i met lots of frienz (from my batch and from EQ course). So hapi to meet them again after 3 months or 2 days ago. haa … When i think about them, i will reminisce the sweet times when we play and study together. ^_^

Day 1 of Creative Life Management Camp 2005

Saturday, December 17th, 2005

Of course, i joined the camp wif much expectation. I already knew wat games awaiting for me. I

told myself tat i got to participate actively in watever games. Cause I alreadi understood the

nature of the games. Initially i was reali afraid tat i could not give my fullest heart to the

games. But then, it turned out to be different from wat i thought. I was extremely extremely X5

active (this is wat i think lar ..). I lost myself completely. I became insane & …. aikx

(speechless). I played games  wif much enthusiasm which was really out of my expectation. Last

time, i was damn quiet and did not dare to go up the stage to express my feeling after playing

certain games.Mostly i remained dormant in short. But, this time, i went up to the stage for

almost all the games. Wah … i must clap for myself. In my life, i reali hate to go up to the

stage to make speech, make presentation or make performances. I reali hate all these. I must

reali hav gathered much courage tat time. If not, i would not be so brave and find something to

make a fool of myself. haha … Aikx, i reali dun know wat happened to myself. It seemed tat i

was charmed or wat. Kinda farnie … but anyway, i plucked enuf courage to do something tat i m

scared to do.
Day 1 : I woke up early in the morning. My dad drove my brother and I to Hotel Excelsior. We had

waited for the bus till 6.30am (the bus was supposed to arrive at 6am lar ..>_<). Along the way

to Penang, I just slept wif my MP3 player on. Aiya, i should stop all this rubbish and go

straight into the fun activities??!! (lolz)
After the opening ceremony, we started our first lecture. Ohya, my lecturers are Mr. Ong, Victor

Gu (neh! the one who was a news reporter be4 in NTV7 lei == envy lei^_^), Zoey and Chase. Then,

we played a game called "A point / B point" which was an application to wat we had learned in a

lecture. The rule of the game was tat the participants are not supposed to repeat the same

movement which others hav used to reach from A to B. I had actuali made up my mind to wat

movement i was going to use. But, when i acted like a drunken man to reach B, the judges rejected

me and asked me to try again. Sigh … last time this movement worked lei(haha). Arr … but it

was still ok for me cause i had so many backups in my mind. Hee … then i acted like an athlete.

Finali i knew the reason tat i was rejected in the first attempt. I think I was not "straight"

enuf in reaching my goal (which was destination B in the game). Hahah … my lecture has told me

be4 tat a game is not necessary a game, it can give u as much inspiration if u reali open ur mind

widely to think about the meaning behind the game. To be continue ……………..^_^

Tuesday, December 6th, 2005

Yesterday on the way going home wif my prof in a cab, we chatted about a lot of things. I consulted him about the future education. I asked him whether taking Malay in A lvl in a wise choice. He claimed that taking it will be an advantage to enter uni but it will become a disadvantage when in the future the uni requires u to take electives which are outside

ur

core subjects. In his opinion, it is better to take other useful subjects tat can prepare me for the electives, cause Malay language is not offered in uni. He gave me an example. If u take Econ in JC, then when u take Principal of Econ in Uni, u r better adapted for tat subject. However, the final decision still lies on me. I think I will make up my mind now cause I hav been thinking about it nonstop. I hav made my 2 choices of subject combinations. The first choice comprises of Maths, CHem, Bio, GP, Project Work, Mother Tongue (which is exempted) and Malay as contrasting subject. My second choice is more of less the same. It comprises of Maths, Chem, Bio, Phy, GP, Project Work, Mother Tongue, and Malay as contrasting subject. I reali hope tat any these two can be offered to me wif Malay as contrasting. I think tat admission into university should be put into priority first cause they look at the overall result. I m OK wif Malay which will definitely pull up my overall grade and serve as an advantage to me. If I force myself to take humanities subjects, I think I will not onli stress up myself other than my core subjects, I also will not do as well as my Malay. I think in the future, the electives should not be a problem to me as long as I put effort in it. I dun need to take one diff subject for the sake of easing myself in the uni. A lvl is kinda important since I dun hav O lvl cert. I ought to do well in it. So, dun play play and stress myself wif diff subjects.

Besides, we also talked about overseas Uni. I initiated the talk by saying tat all my friends are going overbroad to study after their O lvl while I m still stuck in Spore. Haha …But, he said tat most of the foreign colleges dun look at

ur

result and they recruit massive foreign students to gain revenue. He gave me one example of famous Uni which is called Westminster Uni. According to him, all rich people’s, presidents’, chairmen’s, PMs’ sons or daughters are sent to Westminster Uni to study. They got to pay loz of money to study there n it is not easy to enter into it either. My prof said tat the Uni will guarantee the students to enter into

Harvard

and

Cambridge

. Wah … so cool. My prof’s supervisor’s son who had gotten 8As in his A lvl exam, applied to enter

Westminster

. He got to go thru a selection test pluz interview cause his result is more or less the same as those who applied either [so good]. The

Westminster

is so well known tat those who claim studying there will be known to hav these 3 protocols. They are (1)brilliant, (2) hav a good speaking skill > giving speeches, presentations, talks are their strength, (3) rich. These 3 protocols which are applied on the

Westminster

students have not been changed for many years. Wah … so cool. I will aim for tat university if possible. And ………… my prof’s supervisor’s son has already reached year 2 in Uni be4 he is 21 yrs old. Wah … I think the people studying there are damn brilliant. Wordless ~~ dunno if it is possible for me. It will be kinda tough for me. But still I will try my very best to enter it. Hee … new target: Westminster Uni >> Still, I m wondering why there is no such uni in the list of uni ranking ar??? ^_^

Erpz ………..

Arr … how come all the calamities fall on me??!!! Yesterday night I had terrible time to sleep well. I had my nose blocked. Sigh … I felt veri veri terrible. Nose blocking is reali taking my life away. I could fell as if I was suffocated by somebody. Thkx to my auntie. She gave a sleeping pill …haha … I slept quite well after tat. Then the next morning, both of my eyes were swollen. I remembered yesterday I watched the fourth movie of Harry Potter wif my auntie. It was already late at nite (about 1am somethg). I kept rubbing my eyes due to sleepiness. After rubbing for 2 times, I went to sleep liao. Wah .. the sleeping bag under my eyes are reali big. It is not as big as be4 lar now. Sigh … next time dun rub my eyes so hard. Hee …
Juz now went to play badminton wif my auntie and uncle. They bought two rackets be4 we went to the badminton court (they had booked) which is in Tanjong Pagar Community Centre. It has been a long time when I touched the badminton racket. But still, I played wif enthusiasm. When I played wif my uncle, I smashed the shuttlecock wif aggressiveness. Haha … he said tat I played not veri bad ler. My auntie is still a beginner. So, when we played together, we corrected her and gave her some comments. Arr … so tired. I know myself very well. I dun hav enuf stamina. So, whatever games I play, I hav to rest and drink. If not, I will faint. It was reali tiring to play wif my uncle. He played so well. I could manage to get “pass” (1/2 of his points) onli ler.
Next time we will be having one game once a week. It is good to hav sport in ur life. The feeling is indescribable. U juz hav to try it out urself. The most interesting thing is to a miracle, my eyes become fine liao.  ^_^

doubt about tat. It is reali damn painful when I open my mouth wide. Arr … Juz

waited for so long juz to chat wif the doctor for 5 min??!! Erps … and!! The
consultation fee is damn expensive. The fee is doubled in the night! n I
visited the hospital on Saturday somemore. The medical fee is extreme
expensive. I spent $50 something on it. I requested a receipt and reali hope
tat the medical fee can be claimed back. Ouch … pain X10

Saturday, December 3rd, 2005

Arr … so tired. Yesterday, I
came home so late (almost 9pm
).
I have never worked that late lei.

Wah … I had not even eaten my
dinner. As soon as I reached home, I straight went to the kitchen

and cooked 2 packs of instant
noodles. Actuali everyone suffered lar including the prof. The prof

did not need to stay till this
late. If not because of us, he could have relaxed at home and

enjoyed himself. He is so
kind. The prof is reali good. It is reali fortunate for the grp to have

him as our external mentor.
Without him, we will hav not gone so far. And, we should not forget

our mentor. He has accompanied
us since the beginning of the project. He has stayed along side

wif us and battled wif us. Of
couse, in the end we met our expectation and din disappoint anyone.

We got into grand final of the
project competition. There are much more competitions to come. So,

we still can’t let our hair
down. Aikx … tomolo (Saturday) and the next day (Sunday) we still

got to go NTU to do work. Arrr
… so terrible. No grumble lar .. cause we all suffer together

mah. I know tat our hardwork
will eventually give us a fruitful result.^_^
