Credit

It sucks having to feel like you put an effort into something and if the results turn out good, you get no recognition for it. No credit whatsoever. Instead, misunderstandings or not, other less worthy ppl get credit for what you have done.

It sucks big time.

It is not a matter of showing off or not, but I strongly feel the main effort guy should be receiving all the credits he can get as he deserves it.
Especially if he is not rewarded in any ways for his efforts. I'm whining again but I have my reasons.

A little more about that later.

Do you know the sudden shock of motivation you receive sometimes during your educational years? Like all of a sudden, you have this sudden drive which makes you feel extremely motivated to complete your assignment or to study. Shocks like that is coming quite often for me but most often at the wrong times. Zzz. When I am actually in the environment to study.. the motivation is gone. :/
It's like.. you are on the way home from the mall..then you feel the sudden shock of motivation..then u go to the library.. but the moment you arrive at the library, the motivation is gone. U get it?! I get that all the time. Sigh. But at least I'm improving. At least I'm feeling the shocks now. :)

My first SAM progress report is shitty. I am only proud of my ESL marks which actually don't overshadow the much weaker marks. I only can hope and pray I can actually work on the subjects I scored very low in. :(

Okay.
Back to the taking credit thing.

So *ahem* today rite..
During Specialist Maths period, one of my classmates passed my teacher the flyer I designed..

Okla before that, briefly.. the teacher has this impression of me being extremely weak and being not really hardworking enough for my standard.. I always try to make her have a good impression on me somehow.. I always try to show her I'm paying attention and I force myself to understand the lessons most of the time.

Ok back to the flyer which was passed to her.. after a few explanation she gave.. she looked at the flyer.. and started saying..

"Who did this? Well done. It's brilliant"

She looked up to the class and expect a quick and immediate reply.
No one said anything initially until someone spoke..

"Us."

I always inside thinking '???' LOL. Of course I didn't raise my hand and said "me me me" I dowan to sound gay like that. SO being the 'wanting-credit' me, I of course expect someone to say my name.
I think the reason my classmates said "us" was because they thought she was talking about the whole haunted house and wasn't just the flyer. But I understood the question 100%.

Then she said.. "Impossible! I doubt you all can come together and come up with this" or something like that.

Then the class just replied in a very soft tone stating they really are doing it or something.

1000005% misunderstood.

So me, being a victim and biggest loser of the situation, knew she didn't believe and would ask my class rep. Come on la! I really want to get a good impression okay? It was my chance and I just can't screw it like that!
And I was right, she DID ask my class rep after that. After she gave us some work to do.

But I think my class rep misunderstood it too. Or somehow he just didn't want to say my name. Argh.

My teacher asked the same question again to my class rep. I tried listening to the conversation.

"So who did this?" She was clearly interested and curious.

My class rep replied "Erm, we discussed about it and ....came up with it"

Me : -_________-" Huh. ?_?

?_?
-____-
WTf?

SUPER 50000006% misunderstood wei!
Or somehow he just doesn't want to give me the credit I deserve.
AHHHHH.

Cmon la. I have this thinking. As a designer who is not receiving any pays whatsoever, I deserve the credit at least. But I didn't even get that.
And not only that, I missed a FANTASTIC chance for my teacher to get a good impression on me!!!

What you expect me to do ler?! Go up in front and tell her I did it?! No rite.
So omg.

All wasted.
The whole class after that. I damn boh song. She was clearly super interested and amazed with the flyer. She ran out of compliments describing it.

Sigh. Not being lanc la.
But just.
You know la.
As stated above.

:(

A huge chance gone.

Haih.

Learnt my lesson at least. From now on, all my designs. Will have my signature at the bottom.

Too late to regret. Hope she finds out sooner or later of course.
:(

Yawn

Tomorrow I have to go back to college after a 1 week break.
Haih.

Dun feel like it. Prefer to stay at home, staying up till 4am, waking up in the afternoon and tuning in to the Commonwealth Games then spending some time online and repeat the whole process all over again.

Unlike some other ppl who have boring lives at home(hehe), I'm not as keen to go back to college. Zzz again.

I think I found the reason why.
The piles and piles of work AND Specialist Mathematics.

I dun like it when I receive much homework which I have to do because if I don't, I won't understand as much on what is happening in class during lectures.
And also,
specialist maths. Once in a while, my teacher would just like to randomly walk around the class to check whether we had done the work. I mean seriously la.. so zzz.
And I'm one of the worried bunch because .. of certain obvious reasons.

Hopefully it will change tomorrow!
I want to get the liking-college mood all over again.

cmon alex!
be more hardworking!

Sing me a song

I just can't get enough of this song!
I was watching the commonwealth games opening ceremony few days back when almost at the end Delta Goodrem appeared from the centre of the stage and started singing this song.. I think the title should be Together We Are One but ANYWAY, it was freaking good!! I wished I got the video man. When she sang, got ppl with fireworks around her and woahhhh!! CANNOT TAHAN. SO DAMN GAYA.
And Delta looked so chun that night. O.o

Delta Goodrem - Together We Are One

Damn gaya song okay.
Dem meaningful summore.
Just try to imagine ppl moving around her carrying fireworks at their backs.
Esp during the climax of the song.

Ahh.

I shud go hear it again now.

A self-satisfying post

Ehh!
I realised something.
I didn't read the papers yesterday so just now when I went through to see how the SPM results were like..
As usual la, got this group of happy faces screaming for joy scoring double digits 1As..
So as I looked at the photos of the top scorers of the country.. this guy ..who scored 15A1s.. was showing his slip to the camera..

Then I realised something! Guess what?!

He didn't get 1A for 1119!

Hahaha! SO which means, I got higher than him for that one grade!! Hahaha. Damn proud lor.. beat top scorer in something. Bwahahaha.

I know I sound stupid and u are probably giving me that "-____-" face.. but bear with me pls! HAhahahaha! I need to find news which would make me feel better! Just give that consolation to me pls. thx. =)

It feels good cause... it's like..saying... u got a better low-register voice than Mariah Carey.. cause it's like..ppl saying she's one of the best in singing and u actually beat her in one part of her singing.. u get it?! :D

And yea yea! Another thing.. this girl who wasn't enlisted in the top scorers list.. cause she got 15A1s but 1A2 or something.. guess what she got A2 for.. EST! I got 1A for that okay?! Bwahahahaha!
I feel dem smart. I beat another high scorer for a subject.

Okla enuff.
Thx for your time.

This is satisfying.

I am a confused, lost child

I have collected my SPM results today.
I don't know whether to be happy or to be sad.

Before the SPM, during the revision weeks, I actually had a small target placed and not many actually know about it.
I was targetting for my 5 core subjects to score A + my EST subject. Then my 7th A will come from one of the 4 science subjects. I did that cause I know I sucked in my science subjects and to pick 1 out of 4 sounds more reasonable then to score A in all 4. So I came with a target of 7As. The minimum to get price money from the school during Scholastic Award Day.

However, during/after the SPM, I found my target a little too hard to keep. So my prediction was a far cry from my original target. From 7As I originally planned, my prediction went down to a mere 2-4 As. The reason being, I know I sucked for History.. BM was a tricky paper and my science subjects seemed to impossible for me to get an A in any of them. And thus, my target.

So I kept this 2-4As target with me from the day SPM finished on December 2nd till yesterday night. I always had a little space for this tiny glimpse of hope inside me which I often refuse to think about. But it's still there.. I know the possibilities of me achieving outside my 2-4As prediction is there. Afterall, the forecast I achieved was a mere 4As. With a mixtures of Bs and Cs. Seemed tremendously horrible for a student in a Science class. Many friends of mine would dread to have results as bad as I had gotten for my forecast. In fact, I know some ppl who got like many As and 1-2 Bs for their forecast but they are like damn disappointed for some reason.
Honestly, ppl like that makes me laugh. To think of the standard difference and the expectations level is ridiculous. Why such huge contradiction in satisfaction. It is just funny and quite annoying to some extent.

So like I've said, my 2-3As prediction was with me till yesterday night. This morning I woke up and already was thinking of how to face my parents after showing them my 2-4As which I will not be surprised with. I may be disappointed because I always expect a surprise, but that's just another annoying part of me. So in the car on my way, I already told my mum what I expected and we had a slight 'talk' about it. It wasn't exactly an argument but I guess I was just trying to prepare her for the worst.

When I've finally gotten my results. My initial reaction was 'hell yea'. The teacher in charged was looking at my slip and counting the As I have. He didn't stop after 2-4. He went on further, slightly. I was quite surprised. I feel mixed and confused. It was just so weird.

I suddenly didn't feel as happy as I thought I would be when I beat my expectations.
I thought I would be happy, but I wasn't feeling particularly overjoyed or something.
I was just.. confused. It hurts even more when I realised I am just about right in the middle of my class. 40% of my class are top scorers. I'm about the 50% and above.
I went out after that with the guys.. eventhough my results were congratulated and acknowledged positively by some of my family members, it wasn't great if compared to my frens.

It is also confusing because I have this group which is congratulating me and on the other hand this group which would definitely think if they had gotten my results, they would be darn disappointed. I duno what to feel right now. I am sandwiched right in the middle.

And yea, the top scorer of my school achieved 12As. 9A1s and 3A2s. Congrats to him. Since my school is a small shitty school with only 50+ students taking SPM last year, the results are pretty good. My class did the best expectedly being the only science class of the school..(the other class doesn't count cause it only has 6 students).

I am not happy nor sad.


I am just,
confused.

SPM Results 2005

I know I said I don't fking care too some.
I know I said screw it to some.
I know I said it wouldn't matter to some.

But now I feel,
it is only human if i start feeling the tension for the spm results.
I dont think it is caused by my own personal curiosity or interest.
I think I am feeling it because of all the hype surrounding me regarding the SPM results.
Everywhere I go, ppl are talking about SPM results. Bla bla bla. How much they need to score and all. I don't feel the same way.
I feel it because ppl are feeling it. U geddit?
At first I thought I stood a teeny weeny slim chance to score a miracle.. but the more I think, the more I look at it, the more I think about my past and my results I scored last year, the less hopeful I am.
I read back my blog archives reading the 9 days of SPM i had.
I could see I felt no confidence in scoring A for the science subjects and several core subjects.
So why should I feel the confidence now? I know myself best right after I did those papers.

I think another reason on why life as a student sucks is because you have all these examinations. It is not because of how much you need to study for them but it is because of the "results" you anticipate for.
Sometimes you don't anticipate it, but the ppl around you do. And that's exactly my case. Curious family members and close friends just would want to know ur results. You know you already sucked in the examination, you know you wouldn't score well. Everyone can roughly figure out what they'll get after sitting for the papers.. and yet, you tell everyone around you that you gonna get sucky results but they just wanna know anyway.

It hurts to tell ppl a bad result.

3 years ago, 2003. PMR Results.
I felt the tension like a mad cow. It was even more tension-ed than how I am feeling now. But I didn't feel the "what-if-I-get-bad-results" feeling. I honestly didn't.
Even if I did, it would be easily cured. That was because I knew if I hadn't scored well, I would still enter form 4 and then form 5 and then I will have to sit for my SPM which hopefully I will be motivated to study.
But I DID score well for PMR. Fantastic in fact. So my happiness doubled and my confidence grew. And I never knew what does a disappointed feeling over an examination result felt like.

That is why I am feeling all these jumbled up feelings right now. I already know I won't score well. I am just thinking on how the disappointment will feel like.
I am thinking on how am I gonna face my parents and my friends. I told ppl I wouldn't ask for their results if they don't ask for mine. That was the deal I made. But honestly, I really wanna know everyone's results but I just don't want anyone to know mine. I know it's selfish. But I have reasons to it.

The reason I am afraid of scoring badly is because for one, the impression I will give to my family and friends. I hate ppl thinking I am a dumb kid with no brains and only knows how to face the computer and online 24/7. I honestly hate it.
I want ppl to see my as an average study-able kid with a healthy mind. But it doesn't come if you do badly for ur examinations.
My PMR results also place many false impression about me. I am not smart. I am not intelligent. My PMR results were a fluke or the exams were simply too easy.
Anyone could had scored. I was just a little more lucky. But NO. After the results, ppl will expect more or similiar from me for SPM. I hate it. It's disgusting.
That is why I felt rejuvenated and happy when Kim told me she wouldn't look down on me whatsoever if I really did badly for my SPM. She would just think of me as lazy.
I love that thought.

I really hope my parents would take it lightly regarding my SPM results. I hope they wouldn't be sarcastic or angry but just laugh it off. I seriously hope they do.
And I also hope I wouldn't get flooded with phone calls after the results which happens to be in a few hours time. I just want it to be a normal day.

I can just feel the disappointment now.
I duno how long it will last.
I hope it disappears soon.

Once in a while, I like to imagine what if I really did score well. But after a few secs of imagining, I quickly shook the thoughts off as I know it will just increase my disappointment to a larger extent.

I keep telling ppl I dont care about the results. But if I don't, why have I typed so long regarding the SPM Results. It's 3:43am now as I type this sentence. I will be going to school at around 10-11am later.

I have frens who are expecting straight As or many many As.
I don't know what to say.


How nice if I could invent a machine which would tell me everbody's results and then after that make everyone not interested in discussing about the SPM results anymore, better if erased from memory.

However much I try to forget the results tomorrow, ppl would still be talking about it. I also have to pass my results to the college(hopefully they don't consider kicking me out). Frens will discuss. Online forums will ask each other on how they fared. It will/may still be a topic of conversation in my family.

I want to collect my results as I am dead curious and just forget it all.
But I am just wishing for an impossible thing to happen.

I can just smell the bad cloud which overshadowed me for the whole of last year approaching me now.

Go away. Pls.

Woot

I can't help but blog again. 2nd time today!
:D :D :D


My sister's fren wanted to use the computer just now.. So I went to the kitchen instead to munch on some food.. Then I saw this typical Hindustan movie featuring Shah Rukh Khan. At first I treated it as a normal sing-dance love romance movie..
But I continued watching while munching on my food.. Then I realised..OMG. This movie is good man!! Something about the Pakistan and India alliance thingy.
Got fighting and all. I thought the camera and the plot was excellent. The acting was very good too. Except for some corny pigeon-flying-past-when-the-hero-gets-hit-part, I figured it's actually a very well produced movie. Quite entertaining towards the end too. This is the first time in many years I wanted to finish the show.
And the girls were damn gorgeous as usual. Bollywood girls. XD

I came back from a haircut.
Haha. After so long. I feel much fresher and lighter. My thick bushy long hair has been thinned finally. I am liking the new style currently. I didn't re-dye it though.. color still visible. Maybe my next haircut round I will.
Hahaha. I took photos of my new hair again.. I didn't take the before though, because I couldn't get a nice shot.. I tried but it didn't work. =D

My 'shortened' hair!


Haha!

No title

I just came back from my 3-hr Practical Seminar.
Haahahahahaha. Everyone in that class passed undang. I bet my story of passing is one of the more 'different' one. :)

So they told us a little more about the tests and all. Thinking about it also damn nervous. Nooooo~

I got this feeling like I will fail. Pretty scary. I think the failing for Undang affected me. :/

I gonna go for 3-hr basic driving next week. I tried a manual car before with Allen's car and wasn't really 'feeling' it. Hopefully with a proper instructor I can fare much better. At least I got a very slight headstart compared to the other newbies. Just waiting from a call from my instructor.. holiday next week btw for me.
SPM results on monday. Lala.

I going off to cut my long messy dyed hair after I finish my Korean Instant Noodles.
Oh wellz.

Cya all.

Bye.

No impact made

I just can't seem to get rid of the habit of coming online as soon as I get back from college.
My very brief daily timetable without the eating times is something like this. Wake up, college, TV(optional), online, sleep. I'm not exaggerating. It's like this EVERY-SINGLE-DAY.

That is why I try to finish my homework in the library before I arrive home. Because when I arrive home, it is basically GG. Unless I have something really,really important to hand in the next day. Other than that, I just won't do. So if it happens that I don't do my work in the library after college due to some circumstances, then... that's just too sad.
Sigh I just made a very honest confession. :(

SPM Results next monday! Bwahaha. I just love to make ppl my age feel uncomfortable.
SPM SPM SPM RESULTS. BWahaha.
I'm actually stupid enough to affect myself that way. Sien. Hopefully nothing too negatively significant will be posted up on the blog soon. =)

I designed a flyer for my class charity drive event! I asked my fren to design another and we eventually figured his should be posted around campus and mine should be distributed by people to other people.

So fellow Taylorians, check this out!*

Come la. If don't feel like supporting us also at least think of the charity part!
All our hardwork for charity guys! Think! :D

And also,
I bet none of you know I'm totally crazy over Holiday by Greenday. LOVE THAT SONG MAN! I KNOW IT'S OLD AND RELEASED LONG TIME AGO. BUT IT WAS SOMETIME EARLY THIS YEAR WHEN I HEARD IT AGAIN AND WAS LIKE WOAH!!!
GUARANTEED TO MAKE ME MOVE MY HEAD AND FEET EVERYTIME! HAHAHHA!

Ok so to sum it all up, this is how it went.

Today however,
I used 14 mins to complete the test.
My section A got 15/15
My section B got 25/25
My section C got 6/10

Add them all up, I got 46/50.
Passing mark is 42/50.


WOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! YEAH~!

Undang and alexeO

I cannot believe what just happened.

OK this morning, or afternoon rather.
I left home to sit for my Undang examination. Yes, that car test.

Which I WAS SUPPOSED TO fail the colorblind part.
Which was the first 5 questions.
I walked in to the RILEK Center(where you sit for the test).

Small room. 2 workes at the registration counter.
I took a deep breath and walked to the counter.

"Nak duduk undang"

"Give me your IC," the malay man replied.
He stared up at me. I realised he's one-eyed for some reasons.

I took out my wallet and gave him my IC.

"First time?" he asked after clicking a few keys and click on the keyboard and mouse.

"yeah,". I duno whether to say I am colorblind straight to get rid of the hassle or not. So I just followed procedure.

He then asked me to read several sentences of rules that was attached on the table. I read. And got even more troubled.

JIKA CALON DAPAT SATU SALAH DALAM UJIAN RABUN MATA PUN, MAKNANYA SELURUH UJIAN GAGAL.


-_________-


So I put on my innocent acting face and asked,

"Kalau dapat salah macammana, like tekan salah etc.."

He looked up at me with his one eye. He really has one eye. I was like thinking his vision condition is even worst than mine.. I really shud appreciate myself mroe.. and he wouldn't laugh inside him of my defiency.

"Mesti dapat surat doktor,"he replied.ZZz. Misunderstood my question but nvm.

Anyway,
my initial plan was to ask a friendly person there to help me. But when I was there, there was only this 2 malay ladies who are frens. And this girl with a bf at another corner. Who to ask. The 2 malay ladies got the face of 'dont-talk-to-me' kind.

So i sat myself and waited.
The wait was grueling. It was tough.
I sms-ed a few frens asking them what to do.

So many thoughts at my head that time. What if I get the question wrong. I walk in and walk out in less than 5 mins. Will there be a big alarm. Will there be a big UJIAN GAGAL at the computer? How. I was sighing almost every minute.

Then they called a malay girl's name and told them the procedures.. And another malay lady followed suit.

Then he finally called.
"Yeo Chia Yuan"

I looked up from my slouch.
And walked towards the counter.
"this is it," I thought.

So i was informed on what to do and all and walked it. Heck I didn't even know which computer I was supposed to go to. Then at that very instance one of the registration man passed the room and I quickly stopped him. He told me to look at the number that was given. He didn't seem irrirated. I think he is used to it.

I sat at the computer I was allocated to.
They somehow put the 2 malay frens together. How zzz. And put me far away at a corner.

I saw the screen. Was supposed to key my IC in. I jsut wanna finish it quick and get it over with and walked out asap after I fail and get wrong for the test.

To my desperation, I keyed in my IC wrongly. I tried to backspace. Nothing happened.
ZZZ. I was panicking. I walked out of the room and called him. He quickly say go in and I will go there! They msut be thinking how troublesoem this boy is.

When I went it. I finally saw the Backspace function.
-___________-

Sigh. Then he came in and deleted my whole IC. I have to pretend I don't know.
Sigh. What bad impression I gave. And to think I will fail the colorblind test sure make them think of me even lower.

So the test started..

Ujian Rabun Warna.. Kalau gagal bla bla bla doktor bla bla bla.
Okla! How many times must they emphasize it.

Then it started. The bloody colored dots thing.
First question. Was quite confident. Can see abit. Ok choose closest.
2nd. I saw a ball. No square. Quickly choose the square and ball answer as I saw this in a book before. 3rd question. Didnt know if it was 45 or 46. Choose 45 as it look like it closest. 4th Question. Can see abit of number. Choose closest. 5 Dotted question. Can't see anything. But diagram was very familiar. Choose 3 which I thought was the answer of it I saw in the book before.

Then they came out one big red circle and asked me what color was it. And then green. -__-

They asked me if I wanted to check my answers or end that test.
I ended it.

Tahniah! Anda lulus dalam Ujian Buta Warna.
8/8


Huh.
What
in
the
name
of.
What
The?

HECK?!!!!!!!


-___________-!

?????

I was. Like. Huh?
This is not it!
I was supposed to fail and get mistakes and walk out of that room!!!
But it didn't happen.
Another half of me was feeling like ,"omg u passed. just try to pass Undang now"

The vision test was super easy. I passed it too.

Then came the 50 questions.
WHICH I WAS NOT READY AT ALL.
THE LAST TIME I DID 100+ QUESTIONS OUT OF THE 500 QUESTIOSN BOOK WAS LIKE a year ago.
DIDNT EVEN FINSIH THE BOOK.
I DONT KNOW ANYTHING.

To cut things short,
I found the test to be incredibly tough and unfair.
They asked me some injap minyak question. And some motosikal question.
How the heck do I know.
And some road sign questions which I never saw before.

I spent so long for that test. I didn't even think I would be sitting for it that very instance. But I did.
And when I clicked Tamat Ujian finally.

A big 78% appeared on the screen.
Anda telah gagal Ujian Undang or whatever.

.............

What a freaking dumbass.
Honestly I felt so LOW that time.
I know I wasn't even ready.
But still I felt VERY LOW.
I was so close yet so far.
I finsihed the color test.
But why. I didn't even plan to take the 50 questions test.

Why. So near. Now I gotta call the instructor again and inform my frens.
And to sit for the undang exam again is just so troublesome.
Why.

My instructor alraedy called and booked the resit for tomorrow.
I gonna try to do the 500 questions later.
They said 2nd time no need sit for color test.
Why does everything seemed like they are playing me.

I got 39/50 in case u are wondering. 42 passing mark.
I got the lowest I think in my group of frens.

I'm blogging at Inferno now a cyber cafe in SS15. I walked there, waiting for my transport to arrive. Still waiting now. I gotta go back to the centre later to tell them about me going back tomorrow. Feeling nervous about it alraedy. What if I really did fail again or something. The embarassment.

Aih.

I
feel
so
confused
now
and
have
mixed
feelings.

Aih.

My life so far

I'm gonna sit for Undang tomorrow to fail it. Woohoo!
I'm thinking whether I should go and tell them straight I need a form or fail it first.

I think i'll fail it first. It'll be interesting to see how the test continues if I get a question wrong.. :D

Spec Maths CT1 was a bitch. Remember my post saying if it's over 50 i'll get negative 13? Trust me. My real marks isnt really far from that.

I duno how man. Half-giving up on it already. Planning to concentrate more on IT, maths,esl,phy from now on.

What the F was I thinking choosing that subject anyway?
Feeling slight regrets now.

Spec maths lecturer can be seen lost all hopes on me.
How.
Sad.

An update

The reasons I've not been blogging are plain and simple.
For one, I have nothing to say. Everyday is a normal boring average day.
Secondly, no mood and feeling kinda lazy to type things on a site.

So anyway,
Funnily enough I was hardworking enough to spend hours creating my clan forum.
It's up and active.
Hope it will be big. Bwahaha. Not die like the class forum.
PM me for the URL.

Blogging for Taylors College SJ The Web currently. A cybercafe with no games allowed thingy. Pretty nifty place. Comfy, noisy, many coms and can print assignments anytime. Very convenient indeed.

Classes have increase their workloads.
Subjects are harder to understand.
Assignments piling up.

I'm sandwiched between all these.
And to think I'm only at the 3rd month scares me.
I have an ESL essay test tomorrow which counts to the final percentage.
50 mins 400 word essay. I hope I don't get pulled away by the topic tomorrow. If i don't, I should be alrite.

Just realised more than 1 of my SAM classmate visits my blog. O.o
Must be careful of what I type now.
Bwahahaha.

Btw, today my Specialist Maths teacher whom I think has one of the best brains I've ever seen walked around the class checked if we had done our work. When she came to my table, I showed her one of the exercises I've completed. But I was also too honest.

Lecturer : Review Set 2B.. ok good!

Me : I did review set 2A on a seperate piece of paper and forgot to bring it! (smile)

(I then clumsily flipped the exercise 2B around to distract her)

Lecturer : Why you havent finish har... I saw you doing question 7 just now..

Me : Yea..hehe sorry.. (silent tone)

Then she said something which really was significant. LMAO.

Lecturer : Boy.. I can see you are weak in this subject.. you gotta work.. I can't help you if u don't help urself.. come on. (very polite-motivating tone)

Somehow her last sentences sound louder than her previous sentences. Omg. Hahaha paisehnya.

But anyway, she really did motivate me somehow.
But the thing that troubled me more was.. omg?! How she know!! Lol!
She must know I'm some dumbfuk now in the class.

But at least I dont have the reputation of being dumb + naughty.
:D

Duno lah.
Damn stressful liau SAM.

How come no one warned me!!!


Zzz.

Black and White

Having a disability can be quite a good thing sometimes.

Just today, I had a Maths Common Test 1 on my break time. So obviously I didn't have my maths period which was supposed to be at 1pm today. 2pm I was gonna have LAN but I skipped that. So basically, I finished class at 1. -_-
Don't ask me how my maths CT was. I can see that ppl took it better than I did. haih.

So anyway, my dad took me to the eye doctor after class..

I was gonna have my eye formally checked for ... colourblindness.
*gasp*

Okla.. actually I already know I got colourblindness. Proven long time ago.
But I gotta go anyway today.. cause I need a letter. Bloody JPJ doesn't want an optimetrist's letter. They want a DOCTOR's letter. So I went for an eye check.
Funnily enough, I saw the same book they showed me at the optimetrists'. The charts. And what numbers you will see if you are colorblind. My dad was clearly amused by the fact I'm listing out all the REAL numbers wrong and seeing the numbers a colorblind person should see.

-____-"

*deng*

The doctor(who was a nice guy) told us that normally JPJ will provide them a form and they will fill it up.. saying if I'm fit or not to drive. Oh yea, in case you don't know.. I need the form to pass my Undang.
So anyway.. the doctor asked me to get the form from JPJ.
He told me to do this..

"Go sit for your test and fail it.. then they will give u a form and you come back here"

"-_-"(fail a test? what is he thinking) huh.. so do I need to tell them beforehand that I'm colorblind?"

"no need.. just go there and click click and come back ere"

"oh.. hmmm.."

Inside, I was thinking.. damn troublesome omg. Going to a test I know I will fail. Then the embarassment. What will happen if I click one question wrong for the colorblind part..Will everyone look at me..? What will the reaction of the person-in-charge there be... will I be barred from sitting for my Undang forever? Howwww??!

So damn mafan la.. calling my instructor.. going to the undang centre and fail a test.. then go back to the doctor's..then go back to the undang centre.. ZZZ!

Was reminded once again that I couldn't do a few jobs.. pilot.. chemical engineer...hong leong bank worker(duno y)... and some other stuff.

My driving license just got prolonged to an even longer day. Sigh. I will eventually get it guys! Just wait!!

Oh. In case you guys don't know what the charts are.. here are some examples I got from http://colorvisiontesting.com.. :)

Image hosting by Photobucket
Colorblind individuals should see the yellow square. Color normal individuals should see the yellow square and a "faint" brown circle.
True enough.. I only see a yellow square.. not even a single sign of a box.. or circle..whatever.

Image hosting by Photobucket
Colorblind individuals should see the yellow circle. Color normal individuals should see the yellow circle and a "faint" brown square.

The yellow circle is so distinct. Where the F is the square.

I know you guys are feeling proud that you can see! If u got no idea what circle or square I'm talking about.. talk to me. You are basically screwed like me too.

Image hosting by Photobucket
Colorblind individuals should see nothing. Color normal individuals should see a "faint" brown boat.

-_-" yala, yala very proud.

Here's another one which they normally ask.
I see nothing here seriously.
Image hosting by Photobucket


But funnily enough.. I'm not feeling sad or heartbroken at all. I'm taking it like nothing. I never really wanted to be a pilot anyway I guess.. but it doesn't concern my life now.. maybe next time I don't know. It's just delaying my driving license that's all. Zzz.
In fact, I'm quite proud of it if you ask my friends.. haha. Always, I like to guess the colors I have trouble seeing and love to see my friends "NOOO! ITS NOT" reaction.
Hahahaha. I feel..unique!


Ooo yea..on the other hand, SPM Results coming out real soon..

Spirit of a plumber

I am blogging from Taylors SJ library currently and out of my comfort of
home. :( Something happened with my regular transportation so I'm stuck
here in the library while waiting for Kelvin to finish his stuff in
the library. I don't really mind anyway. It's quite cooling here.
Coms are just a little sucky and internet is just a little slow.. but
i'm a tolerant boy. :)

Just around 30 mins ago, Kelvin suddenly decided to eat something.
I followed and we went to McDs.

We ate a while..
chatted.
gossiped as usual.
and talked behind ppl's backs.
:)

that's what u get when u have both of us together.

So anyway,
we decided to leave as we already spent more time than we should there.
We were going back to the library when..

I had the funniest shocking shock of my whole current SAM year.
HAHAHAHAHAH.

Kelvin..
u see..
was as usual attempting to walk funny.

There was this huge longkang we have to cross via a ramp
and Kelvin decided to take the SHORTCUT to the
main road instead.. which in the end
took much more time than it was meant to be. HAHAHAHA.

I took the safe route as usual as I still want to finish my year in SAM
happily without any severe injuries..
Kelvin, on the other hand.. tried the bloody tough route(imo), as i
think he tried to be gaya and show off the ability of his long legs.

It failed. Horrendously.
HAHAHAHAHA.

I can't stop laughing as I'm typing this post.
Freaking funny..

Ok my drawing sucks. Real life and online. I am trying to draw the scene
out with Paint. LMAO. Just try to picture it okay? Use ur imaginative
brain neurons! If there is such a thing. ;) I took a photo with my
handphone.. but I got problem sending it the computer.. So this will
do temporarily..

Image hosting by Photobucket

Ok this was the longkang Kelvin and I tried to cross.. I picked
the safe route of course.. the ramp. Kelvin on the other hand..

wanted to try something special and went to the shortcut.

Suddenly..

"Pap!"

Both of us who were at our own roads paused. Looked at each other,
and then looked down at the big drain.

"Oh shit"

"Huh?"

"Oh shit"

"???"

Kelvin was looking down at the longkang. I followed suit.
I almost had the shock of my life.
A half funny half worried shock u know.. those kind.

Kelvin's bloody student ID.. which he cleverly placed at the back of his
pants.. was in the bloody drain. HAHAHAHA. The white color of the
Student ID was so distinct it made the situation even funnier.
For a second, I thought Kelvin finally went to where he belonged. LMAO.

Image hosting by Photobucket
Kelvin's ID got hooked at the arrow marked HAHAHAHA.

So anyway, both of us were at lost of what to do. Kelvin insisted on
getting his student ID.. I told him otherwise.. I was like..

"Nvm la.. pay RM25 only..save the trouble"

"NONONO. I MUST take it. I cannot go back to the library!"

"Nvm one la.. I help you take ur bag and books from the library.."

Deep inside, I was laughing like mad.
Hahahahaha.

"Kelvin don't go and take la.. damn dirty you know.."

"I MUST la! And I don't think you got the strength to pull me up.. must
get help"


"-_-"

"Okla we find help from random strangers"

Then we started to look left and right for ppl who can help..
This man zoomed past us.. clearly not interested in us.
This chinese guy said he was rushing.
Then this .. african man.. passed. A student in INTI i think.

"Eh Kelvin go ask him.. go go go!"
(I was damn confident he will help.. non-malaysians seemed to be more
helpful)

Kelvin then proceeded and asked..
SO he was damn helpful and all la.. helped the noob out of the drain
after he took.

Hahahaha.
The situation was so funny you have to be there to see it.
And summore it happened to Kelvin Tan.
Hahahaha. Twice the fun.

So I'm finally back here with the comfort of the air conditioned library,
blogging and laughing at what just happened. Kelvin's beside me with
his hardly-rescued student ID card, looking satisfied on what he had
achieved.

Lol. However funny that was for me, I still gotta say I admire his
spirit man!
Honestly, if it happened to me, I would just say screw it.
I mean.. it's not really my fault.. i know my limits.. my stumpy legs
wouldn't allow me to do such thing.. And even if I could..the thought
of entering a longkang..
Ergh~

Hahaha.
Enuff for now.

Connection quite the slow over ere.

SSC Sports Day 2006

I just came back from SSC Sports day at Matsushita Stadium.
Damn hot(as usual).
Never thought yellow(my old house at school) would actually win it and I was correct.

It's nice seeing my old teachers once again. Some welcomed us gracefully some tried to ignore us by looking all over when we were 5 feet away. Fags. Now I know who actually cares and who doesn't.

It's nice seeing a sports day from a spectator's perspective. I'm not anymore involved in it so it was pretty cool.Watching the events really did bring back memories.

I thought about the time Praveen and Izman from red caught up to the yellow runner, Jazlan at the 200m race. I thought about the time Allen overtook Teck Eng at the 4X100. I thought about the time they announced us the winners of the cheerleading competition. I thought about the time we had wide smiles and grins on every yellow member when we had a feeling we had won. I thought about the time Kelvin led the cheer when we took the cheerleading trophy. I thought about the time they announced us overall winners. I thought about the time we threw whatever object we could find around us. I thought about the happiness of winning, and the happiness of seeing heartbroken and slightly embarassed faces of the blue house members. I thought about the time we celebrated, had this never ending smiles on our faces and the satisfaction of knowing all the hard work paid off.

I thought alot.
It was good, excellent memories. To be cherished for eternity.

Yellow got 2nd this year. Blue won. First time this ever happened in the SSC Sports Day history. The order I meant.. Blue, Yellow, Red. Ppl are probably wondering why I still spend so much time thinking about the fate of yellow house this year and the years to come.

It is because. Yellow has became a part of me. I was a yellow since SSC was ever born till my final years. I had to overcome strong critcisms, defended for the house, fought for the house, got burnt in the sun for the house, trained march past every single day for the house, motivated the members of the house, and most importantly stuck with my house on their highs and lows. We got 3rd 4 times out of 8.
We won 2. The rest we got 2nd including this year.
I hate ppl who badmouth his or her house when they are doing badly or lost the previous year. I hate ppl who changes their houses after their house lost.

But I didn't.
I stood tall and proud(well not really proud)

And one of the happiest thing that happened in my SSC history was winning the house cup last year with my buddies.
It signified so much.. my and our efforts combined together into winning it.

I have to admit I was abit affected by the results just now.. but not as much as few years back.

All I have to say is.. if SSC do have the fair system played, following every regulation.. the results will differ I'm sure. To lose will not be a big problem too.
Because we know we lost fair.

But if SSC is indeed fair in making the system, I then may not be in yellow house anymore. Noticibly by every single senior in the school, the way the sort the people to go to each house is ridiculous. If you look tall, lean, and strong.. okay red. If you look like the ideal runner, okay blue. If you look overweight or chubby, okay yellow.

It may just be a "sports day" some might say. But it's still a game. And all games have to be played fair.

And SSC just doesn't seem to get that in their money minded skulls.

1 chance

I just realised I have another chance!
Today my ESL teacher told the class that if we wanted to submit a cover design for this year SAM yearbook "Winanga-Li".. we can!
Gave us a dateline and all. Showed us some examples pretty cool. Very unfortunate that she got all the yearbooks from year 2000 except the 2002 one which was my brother's year involved in the editorial board for SAM. Zzz.

Screw those 3 designs I published for SSC mag. I gonna try out for sure this year for SAM's mag! wooohooo!

and bloody Zhi Ven teacher damn bising. Not satisfied yet with the flyer thing i designed. GAhh!!! Want me to make it bigger add logo and all that shit. Damn mafan.
No mood to help him at all. Zzz. It's nice liau ok? -_-

So much work to do today.
Spec maths being bitchy as usual.
Maths studies teacher a.k.a homework lady doing what she's known best for.
Got some note-taking for 5 articles to do for ESL.
IT got some long so-called short answers questions to be completed.
Physics must submit some title for project.

Attention Taylorians!

Image hosting by Photobucket

Zzz.
Zhi Ven was bugging me to help him design a flyer like how I did for him last year.
I wasn't planning to do it initially today but he suddenly told me the registration starts next week and this friday he was gonna stick it around campus. After designing the whole damn thing not whole-heartedly, I found out from him it wasn't for his basketball club but for his class charity drive. -_-
Zzz.

I just helped another class gained profit! Grr.
Nah it's for a good cause.. so I don't mind. ;)

And indirectly, I'm helping him raise funds too by posting this 'flyer' thingy over here.

It's Wednesday guys!
U've just finished half of the week. Congrats!
=)
