Semester break!
1 1/2 weeks of holidays. awesomeness.. oh, hi there :D
yeah, I've just finished the 1st of 3 semesters for my foundation year. exams are over! oh and speaking of exams. my english test!! gahh, just a tip. if they recommend you to do 2 essays, the first within 30 mins and the next within 1 hour.. you should probably follow their recommendation. and remember to bring a jacket to a freaking cold place or you'll regret it. this is what happened...
1 hour 15 mins before the end. (it was a 3 hour exam)
I've completed the previous parts, got two more essays to go. I spent roughly about an hour on the 30 min recommended essay. that leaves me with 15 more minutes. and by the way, the last 30 mins, all of a sudden my body was literally freezing! and the last 10 mins! i needed to go to the toilet!! and I still had a 1hour recommended essay to write in 15 mins!!
so yeah, i wrote it without stopping or even blinking.. literally xD
I ran to the toilet immediately after the exam, and you could imagine the relief xP
so I really hope I did well or at least reasonably okay..
Math and econs test wasnt too bad. haha I had a wager with my math teacher, if I scored 100% for the test, she'd treat me to dinner. haha! I'd be expecting my dinner soon xPxP
so holidays.. overplanned x(
yesterday had futsal in some unknown place for which i got my leg injured x(
today.. blah have to cancel paintball with friends for add math tuition (oh btw, i'm teaching add maths now! haha).
mission conference starts tonight! cant wait.. tomorrow whole day gone.. conf, church, dinner with relatives. sunday also same.
next week also have lots of stuff planned. oh well, i hope holidays doesnt pass too fast! i still need to learn to drive !
oh btw, you guys ever heard of Plants v Zombies? its a game.. mini game. It's kinda like Tower Defense. not a bad game, quite fun haha xD
so, what'cha doing with your days recently? April 2010 is ending! go do something fun! x)
oh and i just might return to the scrabble scene for abit. haha, got my DOTA addiction over. more time for scrabble now :)
and I guess you could say I did enjoy my prize giving ceremony. they didn't play the Vitamin C song though :(
I did get to see Puan Ong though.. haha, after some bad timing.. we always couldn't meet. anyways, had some fun. I got to be the monitor again for one last time. led the class to greet her again. haha! xD gonna miss the place and the peoples.
I've been meeting some pretty cool people lately. I hope to do more of that in the future. need to overcome a slight shyness I have... :P
until the next one peoples.. i better go for now!
ciaoz!

This is it!
Hi peoples.. so i guess tomorrow will be the last day my friends and i walk into the secondary high school as people who are actually related to the school as somewhat of students(not sure that came out correctly)
loads of pictures and memories expected tomorrow. I just wanna have a good time. lets hope i do x)
i can find no better song to relate to than this...
"Graduation (Friends Forever)"
And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of that night in June
I didn't know much of love
But it came too soon
And there was me and you
And then we got real blue
Stay at home talking on the telephone
And we would get so excitedand we'd get so scared
Laughing at ourselves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels
As we go on
We remember
All the times we
Had together
And as our lives change
From whatever
We will still be
Friends Forever
So if we get the big jobs
And we make the big money
When we look back now
Will our jokes still be funny?
Will we still remember everything we learned in school?
Still be trying to break every single rule
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Can Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan?
I keep, keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
And this is how it feels
La, la, la, la:
Yeah, yeah, yeah
La, la, la, la:
We will still be friends forever
Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
ciaoz peeples... next week 1st semester final exams. gotta study!

Medical Interview
hiya peeps... so yeah, remember how I was gonna tell you 'bout the whole interview experience? yeah okay.. let me roughly brief you through it. Gathered at the place at about 7.30am. It was at Presint 5 i think.. the big building!
Loads o' people were there. people started checking which panel they were in (i think there were bout 15 panels in all). Each panel consisted of 3 interviewers. i was in panel 6 along with my friend Eugene. we registered.. gave our photo-stated documents and waited for our turn. I was the 3rd group to go in, eugene the following one. we heard ppl talking bout their interviews.. some asking bout H1N1, globalisatoin, smoking.. all sorts of stuff. kinda got me a lil' anxious... hopefully they don't ask me too many factual questions. I don't think i can answer too many of 'em!
My turn.. We go in by fives.. i was number 4, the only chinese and boy.. 3 malay girls and an indian girl. Judges were a malay woman, man and chinese man. We were told to seat down on prepared chairs 'bout 2 meters from the panel. Malay woman told us to give an introductory.. in which she spoke in rojak (english/malay) so I guess the first girl played it safe by answering in malay. We followed suit.
The questions posed were simple and casual ones... the first two interviewers we conversed in malay..
Q#1
what have you done in the past that you think has helped you in improving your soft skills that could possibly help you in your future career and how?
Q#2
What do you see yourself doing in 10 years?
Q#3
What is your favourite colour? ( just to break the ice i think )
Q#4
Who is your idol?
Q#5
What have you done in the past that has made yourself and others proud of you apart from your SPM results?
*now in english*
Q#6
what is your biggest influence in life?
Q#7
would yo prefer to study oversea or locally?
So yeah, that's basically what they asked. its was a good experience.. so those who are going for any interviews as such anytime soon.. the only advice i can give you is just be yourself, stay calm and speak confidently.. you'll be okay :)
gtg peeps.. see y'all soon

Friends Forever
hey guys.. So I've just watched the movie 'My Sister's Keeper'. I think It's quite a good movie.. definitely one to remember. If you haven't watched it, I strongly suggest that you do. I think it's based on a true story... or on a novel. Anyways, I don't wanna spoil anything for you. go check it out yeah?
My prize giving ceremony is on this weekend. You know I can still remember exactly how it was like 2 years back when I just finished PMR and was watching all those SPM candidates take their prizes. Phew, I'm one of 'em now. How time flies just like that. It's good to see friends again.. not to mention teachers as well xD
I was really hoping they would play this song during the last day of SPM or at least when we collected our SPM results. I guess not. Who knows? they might still play it this weekend... I guess this is probably the number#1 song for situations like this. it's a classic. If im not mistaken, my primary school played this as the std6's walked out of school as students for the very last time.
Very emotional.. some even cried and I mean boys too!
I'm sure it'll bring some down to tears if they actually play it this weekend xD
anyways, I saw a quote that was quite meaningful. haha, i might use it in one of my essays one day. xP
"If you love something, let it go. If it comes back to you, it's yours forever. If it doesn't, then it was never meant to be."
hehe sounds exactly like how the movie Serendipity played out. that is also quite a nice movie.. kate beckinsale is in there (HOT!)
gotta guys.. enjoy the song, i'm sure you all know it already :) just allow urself 4:41 minutes to be a lil' sentimental. have a great one peeps!

Legalized
hey.. so we're 4 months into 2010 already. How fast is that? Sometimes its okay to take a break for an hour or so just to look at life itself... enjoying all the happy moments before. So yeah, another day.. another year. I'm 18 now. Heck, its passing all too fast. I can still remember my 17th.. I was quite happy cuz i was the senior in the school. And well, that coinciding with the fact that I was expecting something from someone after the march 6th incident. x(
It's been 18 years since i came out from.. *ahem ahem* i guess you can say I am legal now. haha.. I kinda feel old but at the same time young somehow. Does that make any sense??
I had a pretty good birthday, though I must say I wished I had celebrated it with my best buds.. out somewhere. There's nothing better than to just spend time with 'em. I did go out with friends to watch 'Clash of the Titans'.. not as nice as the trailers had appeared to be. a bit disappointed. I had a couple of friends stay overnight.. eugene and jeck (new friends from college)
thanks y'all for all the wishes. much appreciated.. and all the personal calls. Natalie, next time when i say i'm in class... dont call me 16 times. xS and sarah, im still grateful you called :)
Had a great present. A laptop.. haha, yeah thanks dad and ma.
Oh and 'bout the interview... maybe i'll elaborate more bout it another day? I'll give you a proper insight of how it exactly went. i enjoyed it.. haha xD
oh and sadly I couldnt celebrate MU's victory the other night. I wanted them to win.. but i should've wanted them to qualify for the semis. Oh well, EPL all the way now :)
I'll stop here for now. I'll try to keep up with me posting as much as i can. see y'all soon
ciaoz

Easter 2010
hey. So Good Friday went by a couple o' days ago and its Easter today! Cool... had a gathering at my house, parent's cell group and all. It was fun. Another year, another time to celebrate the Lord's resurrection xD
anyways, MU lost yesterday.. that inefficient linesman, drogba was a mile offside and he couldn't lift his hand from 10 meters away.. such nonsense! O'well, MU are still gonna win the EPL so at least losing this game will make the title race a lil' but more interesting :)
JPA interviews starts tomorrow.. Sean's going, 1st batch.. kesihan :(
I hope I'll be ready by tuesday, need to do some in-depth research tomorrow. Hopefully I get some useful info to help me then... don't wanna be stoning in the room now huh? hahaxP
I guess i'll see y'all soon.. ciaoz ppl
