Jingle All the Way to August Holiday

It's holiday again. Time really flies when there are no exams. One thing good, i finally took my Grade 8 Music Theory exam this morning. Feeling of anxiety swept pass me and chills making their way down my back all the time when i was standing alone outside the exam hall like a loner. I had no one to talk to! Everything seems so strange to me.

I was there revising my homework when something caught my attention. Guess what? Saw Zhan Yeh walking up the stairs. I was surprised when i saw him but he didn't seemed to be interested with my presence. Guess he is sempre like that! ( sempre : always ) Obsess with italian terms...

So that MPS held last week was below average for me, to be honest. I understand that it can be done way better because Japanese Culture is something so wide that a mere SMKTS-Library-Sized-Exhibition is just a pinch of sand of the whole thing. However, with Pn. Zaini's limitation, i bet O.C. and V.O.C can't do much about that either.

The whole exhibition was boring for me. Main thing is because i'm not interested in neither anime nor manga, origami was making weapons out of paper? How wierd... That sushi thing was a daylight robbery, flower arrangement was not proper and the whole thing has nothing to do with bonsai, language part was plain boring, not interested in technology because the articles are all about robots, no idea what the Leos and Interact members are doing, Geography was another boring station, couldn't get the Japan's map. What i like are the weather doll and what the Form 6 Council was doing.

I wore yukata on the first day. Was a bit messy cause i had to deal with almost the whole process of wearing that yukata by myself. No one knows how to wear it! After that opening ceremony, i stood at the entrance saying ' よこそいかしませ ' or something like that. Know why i'm not sure? This is the effect of saying that particular word for too many times consecutively. After that, Charlene pulled my aside and told me she wants to make me up. I don't even have time to feel shock about it when i realise i am already in the BBM room sitting down opposite to her. She caused me to tear with that eyeliner! I was afraid of eyeliners okay? Then, i look a bit geisha-ish after that make up but she didn't put powder on my neck so nevermind...

Went home and took one last picture of me! Happy holiday!

Beijing Olympics 2008

It is August again. Time really flies and tomorrow ( 08.08.08 ) is the opening ceremony of Beijing Olympics 2008. Make sure you don't miss the meant-to-be-sophisticated event of the year. Although the five maskots of the Beijing Olympics are believed to bring bad luck to China after analysis of Feng Shui master, i still believe everything will be alright in the end.

Last monday, my YE, YUKA MIURA from Japan came. She was the sub-leader of her group from her district. She is so hyperactive that we are having so much fun with her compared to the YE i had last year. At least she don't show us the long face or BF PMS-ing attitude all the time right? She is active and cute! But i don't think she's annoying cause her thinking are just like children's - not mature in a natural way.

F.Y.I - This is just to update and not meant for pictures. So just be patient and stay tuned to my blog. Don't ever act like some irritating bees or flies buzzing round my Cbox asking me to post pictures of the Japanese girl. I have a clear mind on what i am doing!

Outgrowing from tests

Today was cool. I was the first to arrive at Bio Lab second after teacher but first student! How rare... By the way, we did the juice test and i was obsess with the syringe and played with the orange juice too! Five Form 5 guys intruded our class but i can only recognise Han Liang, Jun Hsien and Zhuo Li. Jun Hsien asked me whether am i going to the Leo Installation and i answered ' No ' . He sort of asked me in a stern but joking way why and told me he is going to reserve a sit for me written ' O.C. for Librarian Installation ' on the chair. Sad to say, i really M.I.A for LEO Installation.

There was this Senamrobik Peringkat Daerah held in our school field this morning. The songs were all so energetic and through my class window, really felt like joining them. Joel, Ming Soon, Alan and Geber were involved in that exercise too! They seemed to be having a whale of time down there. Saw my primary school headmaster and also my dad's ex-classmate who is a headmaster of S.K Taman S.E.A school. Pn. Liew still taught, albeit the loudness of the songs. Her voice is so vague! How am i suppose to know what is she talking about?

We had lots of tests lately mainly diagnostic tests. The teachers all claimed that our class was chosen to take the test and my class ended up taking Biology test, Chemistry test and Add Maths test. There were so many killer modules especially Add Maths when Pn. Ang made us do 4 modules at once only given 25 minutes each which is about 1/2 minute one question. That really was like rush hour for everybody except for those who chose to shoot heads since they were all objectives.

Had Theory of Music lesson again. Teacher marked my paper and guess what? I'm only one mark away from failure. That is not a good sign. I am going to work way harder and put some effort in theory to pass the exam on 16th August. Feeling anxious whenever i think of it. I hate exams! Have to love it for now...

I really hated Khai Sern for being emotional and in a bad mood these days. No offence but bad mood people really piss me off. F.Y.I, it affects people around you also okay? That's why even if i'm not feeling happy, the longest i can be emotional is only 2 hours cause i know it really affects and i need that time to get over those bad feelings. I hope something good will happen very soon which might perk him up a little bit. He is like a walking dead corpse now! I really feel sorry for what has happened to him but these things can't be helped right? It has already happened. Sorry for being harsh.

Anyway, check these out!Pandas are so cute!Sea horse?? Huge and different one..Question : Do jelly fish has brain?

Finally that video was uploaded. I thought it failed everytime i upload it. It shows the be patient thing then it seems like it will never turn into a "congratulations video was uploaded" screen. Really got me pissed off. Anyway, have to keep the vulgar languages to myself.

That day was the day of all photos! "3, 2, 1, click!" And that goes on for so many times. Took a total of 3 photos today : for class, for PMR top scorers and for librarian. So only got History which is the first two period today. However, thanks to the prefects for interrupting for spot check, we practically had no studies for the whole day.

July 18
We had test today! Yes, a real Bio test and that is FOOD TEST! Got fooled by Joel who said that we are having test today and it ended up food test. Really dots man. Anyway, one funny conversation between Alan and Ming Soon.

Alan : ( Dripping the Benedict's solution all the way into the water bath)
Ming Soon : Stop wasting the Benedict's solution would you?
Alan : Who cares? It's Benedict's..

Okay, that was extremely lame. Anyway, there will be lots of real test coming up next week. Must study hard. I hate test, neither do exams.

Bon Odori

Yey! Bon Odori is here once more. Guess what? I totally missed it. The same time i am writing this post, these people are already there drowning themselves in the festival while i am stuck at home.

One thing for sure :

I am not going to miss it again!

Hope so...

Anyway, hope those who went enjoy themselves there. It is a great experience mixing around especially with the Japanese. Good night!

Frivolous Act

Just yesterday that i have made up my mind to try something new and i took up a challenge on starting a new blog in myspace. It was nothing but mere fun and to entertain my boredom before i head to bed for a goodnight rest.

After posting a post titled amateur referring to my amateurish in using myspace unlike Joel, i felt this feeling of eager to continue what i have started and therefore, introducing my new blog and may be also called the duplicated blog : CLICK HERE

P.S : I'm still waiting for the pictures and video from Shu Ning. Hope this will guilt her.

Busy Like A Bee

It has been hectic ever since summer holidays. Been through excitement of Canteen Day, exhausting marching practices, dreadful Annual General Meeting for all librarians, anxiety for marching position, ecstatic marchers, athletes and members of blue house, fatigue after sports day, typical RKA day and exhilarating Librarian Installation.

All the pleasures and indulgences of the past, marks the beginning of some serious work. There are still much to reminisce about, albeit the upcoming busy days. Its suppose i now lead a restless lifestyle that i have this yearning for the carefree past. However, i believe goodness will prevail in the end.

P.S : Thank you all who helped out for installation. Your contributions and commitment are much appreciated.

Librarian Installation 2008

Relieved that everything went well. Couldn't believe all the hard work the committee members and librarians who helped out for the past few months only last for a few hours. Anyway installation has always been a big day for librarians right?

I was astonished to finding some people talking when somebody was speaking on the stage. I was appalled by some people who did not show respect for another and not clap when they were supposed to. I was annoyed by some people who did not give full cooperation during rehearsals and the real event. I was even aghast by some people who did not even bother to attend any of the rehearsals, late for their own installation and could not even follow given dress code.

• Reached school at 7.30am and started all the last minute preparations
• Surprised to hear that Charlene and Lyn will be dancing along with my playing
• Stood a chance to practice for the last time before the actual installation starts
• Rushed to change then rushed back out for last rehearsal
• Shocked to know that Pn. Zakiah arrived right on time (10.00am)
• Installation begun without me knowing
• Got sick seeing empty chairs behind me
• Lined up to get certificate and tie after speeches
• Stormed into back stage to prepare myself for the performance
• Wore high heels despite the swollen and hurt feet
• After a blink of eye, it is my turn to own the stage
• Hit the wall few times then went out
• Bowed then started my playing, got cheering even before i can finish my playing
• Almost got a standing ovation when i bowed before going out stage but not...
• Heart beat the hell out of me after the performance which i don't know why ( shouldn't it be before? Why it happens after?)
• Ate rice, muffins and jelly while sitting with Shu Ning, got problem eating the chicken
• Sneaked out with Shu Ning when they were playing games and took loads of pictures
• Went back to do my Theory homework
• Went to my class to solve Shu Ning's unsolvable puzzle then fell asleep
• Moved all the things back to library and cleaned up the hall
• Took pictures with Pn.Zaini and fellow committed committee members at the back drop
• Went around feeding people left over muffins and succeed giving away a whole box of muffins
• Tired, went home around 4.30 pm to prepare for theory lesson

Our beautiful backdrop..
