First Outing

After the function we had in TAR College (as mentioned in the last post).
I went out with friends from SN9A.

It was the first time I have ever went anywhere with anyone from my lecture group.

Usually, when my classmate go out. I decline to join.
Citing, time and money as concerns.

The only time other time I went out with classmates was to watch Valkyrie. But that was just with two other classmates. And I went on my own.

This was different.
I went with my friend's car.

So, I think this would officially be the first time I went out with my lecture mates.

And yes. I did enjoy myself.
But I realised that SN9A is a bit sexist.
Girls on group, guys another.
Amusing. And yet... weird.

But I did enjoy myself.
And perhaps, I do regret not going out more often with my other classmates.

In Christ Alone

Today. (9th February 2010)
I returned to college to get honoured.

Sound funny.
But yes. Honoured.
Other than that, photographed, met the principal and got congratulated by many.

It was the Certificate Giving Ceremony.
And I was not the only one honoured. About Sixty other people too were there.

I realised that I am really blessed to be there.
And that it was truly, truly a miracle that I even made it there.

And I really really am thankful to God that He helped me there.

To tell you the truth.
Without God, without God's help, without His strength...
...Iwould not have ever ever made it.

My 35 cents on the Government Transformation Plan

29th January 2010.
The government has discovered a new word for “Change”.

TRANSFORMATION

Maybe. We are finally moving forward.
Obama in the USA is going: “Change, Change, Change”

It looks like our Premier, Datuk Seri Najib is going:

“Transformation, Transformation, Transformation”

I will applaud the government's initiative to move our nation forward.
To fulfil the Wawasan 2020.

I just hope that the plan works.
But maybe, just maybe. the transformation is just too gradual.
People may not be able to see the picture.

I think the government instead should perhaps work their socks out, in TOP SECRET.
To make a plan that will take effect overnight.
So that when the plan is put into effect, everyone will have no choice but feel the change.
NO. Everyone will have to change.
And no one can say that we have not transformed.

So that overnight.
No one will live the way they used to.

For example.
The transportation system.
We should not announce anything until we have a system.
The people in the transportation ministry should create a transport system with one form of payment.
The system should be tested and run at 1000 times the normal capacity.
The payment form, perhaps a card, should be manufactured first, and be ready to use.
A back-up system should be made too, and tested.

And only when everything is ready. The cards shipped to selling locations.
Than should the plan be announced to the public.

And implemented in 24 hours.
The change will be shocking.

Well.
That is what I will do.
But now that the government has announced its plans, I sure hope that they will be carried out.

For the betterment of our nation.

February

I know.
It is a bit too late to be posting this.
But February is only a few days old.

So what is so great about February.

Well. I get my first Salary. Yay!!!

But the best part should be CHINESE NEW YEAR!!!!

There will be eating... a whole lot of eating...
Yee Sang. Yee Sang. Yee Sang. Yee Sang.
Prawns. Prawns. Prawns.
Dim Sum. Dim Sum. Dim Sum.
Cookies. Cookies. Cookies. Cookies.

There will of course, in strict Chinese Tradition – Ang Paus.
Or what you call the Red Packets. Oh the RED PACKET...

Best of all. Is the reunion of Family Members, friends. And more friends!!!
Chit Chat... Blah, blah, blah....
It is Sure to be a big BANG!!!

Counting down the days...
It is coming.
And I can't wait.

Aiming for 500

Breaking out on this blog.
A new post.

It is already Saturday. And it is only the first post.
Disappointed that I had not written earlier.
But really. I had nothing to blog about.

No.
I was too busy to type out my thoughts.

Other friends. Like Alicia and Elise are celebrating their 500th and 100th post respectively.

And although I have made it to 100, in 2008.

I think that I can try to break the 500th post this year.

So.... going for 500.
And, I can't believe it is February already.

The Myvi

Sometimes I marvel at the people who can sms, talk on the handphone and drive.
All at the same time. And somehow keep out of an accident.

For me, I can't even talk on the handphone and drive.
And that is with an auto car.

Now that my dad has bought a manual.
I have never felt so scared driving a car.
If I can't talk and drive at the same time (even with hands-free),
how on earth am I suppose to drive and change gears also??

I hate the first gear, but we have no choice but to use it.
Hopefully a few more practice runs will help me get use to it.

Because right now, I am confident about driving an auto car.
But a manual, I will not even do it in town.

Oh, by the way, the new car is a Myvi.
And it is golden.
Now we have two golden cars.

Saturday

Today is Saturday.
Mundane for you. But for me, so shock...

Why so shock??
Because it is a holiday!! Yay!

For the last two Saturdays I had to work.
But today, I am free!!

Congrats

To all those who just received their results.

CONGRATS!!!

For A2 results recipients.
All the best in your future undertakings.

For AS result recipients.
All the best as you work towards A2.

To SN10 students.
All the best in preparing for AS.

Results

This blog has been kind of silent for the pass few days hasn't it.

Well. Here is one to liven things up.

Although it may be reported well in other nations, this story did not receive much media attention in the Malaysian news.
Few, other than those directly involved and those related to the involved, know about that the Cambridge A Levels results was released Worldwide at GMT00:00 (roughly 8:00am Malaysian Time).

For those who do not know.
I was one of the candidates who sat for the A Level exams.

Firstly.
I want to thank God for all helping me through all the exams, the classes and the study periods.
Without Him, I would have pull through.

Secondly.
You should all know that I am very satisfied and very happy with my results.
I expected worst.
So pulling through with 3 A s and 1 B, was very very surprising.
A for Biology, Chemistry and Maths
B for Physics.

Thirdly.
I must say that without their help I will not have pull through.
I want to sincerely thank:
Ms Chong, – for teaching Biology and giving me other counsel.
Mr Siva – for teaching Chemistry.
Mr Hoo, – for Physics.
Ms Melissa, Ms Evelyn and Mr Ngeoh – for Maths.
Mr Ng, Ms Ong, Ms Tong and Ms Hee – for practicals in Physics and Biology.
Ms Joanna – for General Paper.

Fourthly.
Friends.
Here is to all you people who helped, and supported along the way.
As well provide companionship, laughter and joy to a good part of my A levels.
Remembering:
Tiah Wen Lin, XP or Sakai Kia, Ruth Soh, Fuddy, Elise, Yin Qing, Ang Ni Hua, Glenn, Larry, Stefanie or Stef-mon, Andrea, Esther, Errol, Alvin, Alice, Eunice, Sharonne, Karen, Daniel Lee, Daniel Phang, Kar Yee, Andrian, Kenny Chan, Kenny Ng, Carmille, Kah Hong, Chan Hon Fai, Janice, Denise, Christine Lay, Christine Lee, Jian Qian, Joseph, Shaun, Carmen, Kel Vin, Kel Sern, Ricky, Danush, Purple (Eileen), Belinda Leh, Adrene, Eu Pui and last but not least Kok Hau..

Fifthly.
Now, with results out, I am more than ever pressure to decide what to do in the future.
What course should I take.
Which University should I go to.
What will I do??

Lastly.
I thank God for all He has given me.
Now, I pray that He will guide me in the next steps.

ps. I will need to return to TAR College to college the break down plus the certs. And hopefully a recommendation letter. But I would need to apply to a University first.

Time's up

Tick, tock. Tick Tock. Tick Tock.

The count down has began.
I repeat the count down has began.

In less than 24 hours the A2 exams results will be out.

And than the decision making process begins.
I have to really decide what to do.

Fuddy.
This is another reminder that the exams results are coming out. Thank for noting.

When eyes and ears fail

Sometimes I can't believe my ears.
Sometimes I can't believe my eyes.

It is not that my eyes and ears fail me, but rather I am shocked to the point of sensory failure.

A respected leader of our nation.
Our fourth Prime Minister made statements that spur controversy.
At first I could not believe my ears when he said it on National Television.
Then, I could not believe my eyes when I read about it on National News.

Prime Minister reportedly said.

“In September 2001, the World Trade Centre was attacked allegedly by terrorists. I am not sure now that Muslim terrorists carried out these attacks. There are strong evidences that the attacks were staged. If they can make Avatar, they can make anything. Killing innocent people to provide an excuse for war is not new to the US.'
read about it here, here, here and here.

I was shocked.
I was speechless.
What was DR. M implying??
That over 3000 people were killed by the Americans themselves.
While the whole world expressed regret and sorrow to the US, Malaysia included.
How now, could our former premier say this.

Does he want the US to sever the ties of friendship with us?
They are the biggest importers for Malaysians goods.

Today.

Dr. M says that the Arabs are not clever enough to stage such a coordinated attack (refering to 9/11).
read about it here.

This may cause our ties with the Middle East to be severed too.

If Dr. M statements make both the WEST and the Middle East abandon us and cut all ties of friendship...
What will we do?

I sincerely hope that DR M will retract these statements.

Both the West and the Middle East have contributed to our Country.
Why should we insult them?

DOUBLE

It is now double!!!

What am I talking about?
The McDonald Prosperity Burger, of course.

I just can't wait to sink my teeth into it.
