Trip to Belawai Beach

This morning, I set out with my three frens to Belawai in search of a beach... Originally, this trip was planned for 8 persons... the drinks and junk food have already been bought and everything was in place... but due to sudden technical problems, we were left with only one car and the 4 girls were forced to quit the trip at the last minute... We started our journey around 7.30am and got back to Sibu by 1.30pm, so it was just a half day trip... we didn't do much on our trip, just taking pictures by the beach and taking this opportunity to have an outing with frens XD

Prawn, the logo of Belawai!

View from outside the beach...

Look at the weather when we got there >.< Not even one person there...

Notice the way the waves form? So nice~~

Forever Alone!

Finally, other ppl came....

The weather became better in the end too =D

Visitation to a Goat & Livestock farm

Today I followed the youths of our church for a visitation to TYC Goat & Livestock Sdn. Bhd., which is a farm... We started our journey around 7.45am and reached there around 9am... What we did there was basically looking at animals and organic vegetables... I even bought 300ml goat milk for RM8, incredible! >.< It tasted refreshing, not too sure if it's better than cow milk though, haha... After around 2 hours, we went back home...

TYC Goat & Livestock Sdn. Bhd.

Cows!! Mooooo....

The nice landscape view of the plants and veges...

The corn planted there for consumption for goats, not humans, LOL!

Horse!

Cow-like goat, according to one of my frens =.=

More goats!! xD

Merry Christmas 2011!!

Here, I would like to wish all of u a happy, blessed and merry Christmas! xD

The busiest month of a calendar year for me every year has to be December, when church activities are non-stop and the Christmas season is around the corner... I have to say, other than Chinese New Year, Christmas is my number 2 favorite season in a year... I love all the Christmas songs, gatherings with family and frens, and most importantly, this is the celebration for the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ...

This year, my schedule had been as busy as ever, with many activities which I took part... It all starts from last Saturday night when we had a combined Christmas caroling or more commonly known as the annual Christmas procession in Sibu... Just like for the past two years, this year I joined the Youth of our church in procession... However, the procession this year is a bit more interesting, because it rained so heavily even before we started walking! I was completely wet because I had to help in moving our Cross and Icon from church to the Sibu Town Square, and in the process, I got wet completely... This is what u call proclaiming the Good News of Jesus in rain! Haha... Thankfully, the rain stopped right when we started walking and everything else went well... ^^

Christmas Procession 2011

Then, the next day, I had Christmas caroling with my church frens at night, where we go to houses to proclaim the birth of Jesus to them... we did this every year, and this year was the longest, as in we ended the whole activity around 12.30am! This year, we got a bus to fetch us from house to house, and as we walked into the houses, we would sing Christmas songs so that houses nearby could hear our voices... it was quite an experience, and everyone had a great time...

On Monday, the youths of my church had to perform a dance for the song 'Joy to the World' at night... it was the opening performance for a public Christmas caroling organized by YMCA... To prepare for it, all of us went to church around 2pm to practise the dance over and over again, and performed the whole thing at night... Tonight would be Christmas Eve Mass in church, and at 12am later, it would be Christmas!! xD

We should all remember that Christmas is not mainly about Santa Claus or presents or mistletoe or anything like that... The most important thing about Christmas is the birth of Jesus Christ! Let us all rejoice that a child is born tonight, and he is our Lord Jesus Christ... Have a blessed Christmas, everyone! =)

Youth Congress 2011 Part 2

Hey guys, sorry for the delay of the pictures of the camp... Due to some 'technical problems', I had to wait for the pictures to be uploaded on Facebook before I can post it here... Another problem is, pictures for Day 6 and Day 7 of the camp couldn't be uploaded because the memory card containing them has been taken to China by another person =.= Anyway, hope you guys enjoy these few pictures I have handpicked here... =)

The banner for our Youth Congress 2011, and this camp was held at Sibu Pastoral Centre

One of the ice breaking games, where trust is essential in maintaning this position!

Station games aka Gladiators!! I missed these games cuz of the next picture >.<

Maranatha Night, where we pray by singing ONLY! I wasted a whole afternoon to arrange this! Nice, right? Haha!

Interesting game of snakes and ladders, where demons, sins and bibles are drawn onto the board game =D

The participants even helped out in gotong-royong, which I didn't take part on purpose, huhu! XD

Rosary prayer done by procession to the statue of Mother Mary. Everyone was given a cup candle to hold.

Father Paul Cheong taught us to meditate, and seriously I failed! LOL!

Adoration of the Cross and Icon, where we ask for our intentions and adore the cross which Jesus Christ died on.

Washing of feet, where we can wash anyone's feet and ask for forgiveness or
even say things deep down in our hearts, very very touching event T.T

After washing, we can hug each other as a sign of forgiveness... @@

Station of the Cross. We set up 14 stations all around Pastoral Centre and
walked to each station one by one while carrying the big cross and icon.

Procession of the King. We had a procession with Father Paul Ling holding the Eucharist
and covered by the cloth above

There's actually other main events where the pictures have not been uploaded yet or maybe there wasn't any good shots on them... For example, Vanity Playground (like a fun fair), Infilling of Holy Spirit (I shall not go too deep into this, haha! Ask me personally if ur curious abt it =P), visitation to old folks home and I Am A Star (talent night)... 

Like I mentioned before, this camp had been an incredible experience for me, though this is the 3rd time I joined it... All in all, I loved the camp and I love God more than I've ever been in my whole life... Praise the Lord! Alleluia! ^^

Youth Congress 2011

Yeah! Finally I'm back from this one-week church camp! First of all, the photos taken is not ready yet, meaning I can't upload any pictures just yet, so maybe I'll upload some in my next post... For now, let's just listen to me blah a long post for u, which I always do, haha...


This year, the camp is based on the World Youth Day 2011 theme... some of you might not know anything abt it... actually it's a worldwide gathering of youths which is held every 2 or 3 years, and this year it was held in Madrid around August... so what our priest did was using the WYD 2011 as our theme for the camp... the idea was used in 2008 too, but this year, the downside is that the WYD theme song is not that nice, haha... Compare the two songs below and u'll know =)


Overall, this has to be the most tiring camp I've been to in my life, because of the position I held, which was the committee for Spiritual group... I have to be in charge of so many stuffs... I've been in committee before for red crescent and still managed to get the fun out of them, but this time the situation is so much different... The problem is that I got into the committee later than the others, and I didn't know what to do until 5 days before the camp, which is a complete disaster =.=


I guess all the participants and committee can see I'm one of the busiest person in the camp... u'll see me running in and out all the time, and wherever I go, I always have two things with me, which is my hp and a pendrive containing all my stuffs... every night when all the participants go to bed, we committee have to run a meeting, and after that, some of us will go to kitchen there to chat and eat snacks or noodle cups... While the others are enjoying themselves, I'm forced to bring a laptop n my pendrive along cuz I have to check my slides for the next day... that was how busy I was ><


Through this camp, I have to say, I'd rather be a participant rather than a committee member... one reason is that participants get to be more relaxed without having to be in charge of anything and getting much more sleep... but more importantly, participants can focus much more and benefit more on the spiritual side, which is the main reason I joined this camp in the first place... anyway, this has been a precious experience for me as a committee... as busy as I was, I still enjoyed myself a lot and made new frens... I'll definitely join again next time, no matter as committee or participant... =)


P.S. Stay tuned for the next post, I'll post pics of the camp to let u know more abt it... xD

Teaching little kids!!

Okay, I've not blogged for more than a week now, and there are reasons to that... I have been so busy that I always get lazy to blog anything at all... FYI, I'll be going to an one week camp on Monday, which means today, though I'm writing this during past midnight... which means I won't be blogging again for another week... surely I'm not gonna leave my blog to rot for 2 weeks, haha, so I had to force myself to write something here though I'm extremely tired now...


Well, as mentioned in the last post, I had been teaching little kids about Christian knowledge... I have been helping out in this every year since I was in Form 2, except Form 5 when it crashed with my SPM... Teenagers around my age normally just help out other older teachers in class, but for the last two years, I have already been 'promoted' to be a main teacher, which means I'm the one who teach and I have younger teachers following me into class, haha...


This year, the biggest difference is that the committee decided to open 2 classes for kindergarten children, which means TROUBLE to us teachers... these kids are the cutest, yet the NAUGHTIEST as ever... it's so hard to control them because they are so pure in thoughts and just do anything they like... I had quite a tough time teaching them as I was one of the teachers in a kindy class... as tough as it was, it was quite an experience ><


In a blink of an eye, two weeks are gone just like that... but I'm quite satisfied with my experience this year, as I got to spend time with church friends as well as getting to know many other new friends, hahaha... Actually the reason I've been so busy lately is not just because I was teaching from morning to afternoon, but mainly because I'm one of the committee members for my upcoming camp... I have been running in and out for the past few days just to get my jobs done... Let's pray that everything will go well in this camp... See you all in one week ^^

Worries? Problems?

As I said at the end of my previous post, I'm currently volunteering as a teacher in church to teach little kids about Christian knowledge... all of that, I shall talk about them in my next post...

Anyway, today while I was in the 'staffroom' with a few young teachers like me chatting and laughing crazily among ourselves, one of the elder teachers who was sitting nearby us asked us, "Do you young people have worries or problems? And what are them? (你们年轻人有烦恼的吗? 是什么呢?)", because she thinks we don't... Some of my frens started to say stuffs like studies, money and other typical stuffs... Then I asked that teacher what abt her? She told us her responsibility is a a big worry for her, everything abt her family, her children's future, desires, studies...

Honestly, if you compare both of them, teenagers' worries are much less significant as compared to adults' worries... how much responsibility is actually placed on a teenager's shoulders? To be honest, other than studies, there's not much real worries for us other than those created by ourselves for us...

However, for me personally, sometimes my worries do not just end with studies... money is a big part of my concern everyday in my life... Due to the tough situation of my family's finance, I have to buy almost everything by myself... I'm just thankful to God that I was given scholarships, small or big throughout my life, so that I could ease the pressure on my parents...

Well, the main point of my post here is that, I guess we, as teenagers especially, should always stay grateful to God for everything that has been given to us, and not always sulk around abt this and that... There's a lot of other ppl who are less fortunate than us in terms of health, money, family relationships etc. Now when I look back at my previous posts worrying abt not getting a gf, I can't help but to think how stupid I sound back then... From now on, I shall always thank God for everything He has given me, no matter how tough situations might seem to be at times... let us all learn to be grateful and thankful in life at all times... =D

This is so true! ^^

Church camp~~

Phew, I just came back from a 3-day church camp called 圣神同祷会 yesterday... it was held at the Sibu Pastoral Centre and organized by the prayer group of my church... This is the very first time I've joined this annual camp, though it has been around for quite long dy... guess one of the reason I joined was just to cure my boredom n get out of my house, haha... however, I was in for a treat, as I reli loved the camp in the end... =)


The theme for the camp this year is 我心深处, the deepest part of my heart... that's the part of the heart where all the sorrows and injuries are hidden away with us not realizing it at all, so the main point of this camp was to heal our hearts' deepest sorrows and injuries... of cuz there were other normal programmes which they carry out every year in the camp, such as Inner Healing, Baptism with Holy Spirit, Praise and Worship, speaking in tongues and many more... those who aren't Catholics, dun think u'll know what I just mentioned, haha...


Anyway, I realized that the participants for this camp are mostly adults, and I'm talking about 40-70 years old adults... and as a result, the meals prepared had to be suited to their taste too... >< However, I still had some good frens in there around my age, so I wasn't that bored at all...


Well, all in all, I certainly learnt some lessons in there... I learnt that we shud at all times put God above anything else in our lives... God's love is what matters, not anyone else's love... and I promised God that I will regret my sins completely and not repeat them ever again, which I pray I can achieve, haha... and through the inner healing and baptism of Holy Spirit, I felt much more closer to God than ever before...


I just hope I get to join this camp every year from now on... As for now, I'm currently helping out as a teacher in church to teach little kids christian knowledge for 2 weeks, hope it all goes well... =D

Do Women Date Assholes?

I wonder how many of u would agree with the guy in the youtube video below? I think I agree for most of the girls, not all... lol... >.<

Retired!!

Well, after 2 short months as a teacher in SMK Sacred Heart, today is finally the last day... I'm officially retired as a teacher!! I guess the larger part of my heart is just feeling relieved and relaxed that it's finally over, that I dun have to face all those problems I've faced before anymore... on the other hand, the rest of my heart kinda feels like I'm gonna miss all the good and cute students, and oso students calling me 'teacher', haha... Mixed feelings la...


Overall, though it was a tough experience from the beginning, I started to get used to it as it went by, u could just say it fitted into my system gradually... At first, I was always sleepy and tired as I could not deal with sleeping early and waking up early, that was the worst! But in the end, I got used to it and could sleep 5 hours and still feel awake at school, haha...


But now, I'm just glad it's all over... I can even say that my holiday has just resumed! Haha... Anyway, it's quite awkward to think that I was a former Methodist student teaching in Sacred Heart... most teachers asked me whether I was an ex-student of Sacred Heart... now that I've done that, my heart might be split between the two schools... However, it's clear that I'll always be a Methodist by heart!


Anyway, since that school holidays has started, this means church activities are coming thick and fast... Hope I can fully enjoy the last 3 months of my holiday! =D

If I could read minds...

If I could read minds, I would know what cards the others have in a card game, and know what moves I should make next.


If I could read minds, I would know what others truly think of me, whether they like me or hate me.



If I could read minds, I would know why someone doesn't like me or is unhappy with me and try to make it up to them.

If I could read minds, I would be a great CSI detective and identify the culprit as soon as I see the person. (too much CSI dy, zzz...)


If I could read minds, I would know what questions teachers are setting in exams and get excellent results in every exam. (that'll be super great!)


If I could read minds, I would know the real reason why someone is in a bad mood and be able to console him/her if needed.


If I could read minds, I would know exactly what to do and what to say to a person in a bad mood, because I would know what he/she hopes to hear.


If I could read minds, I would nail interviews because I would know exactly what interviewers want from me.


If I could read minds, I would know if a girl is into me or not. (that would be extremely handy >.<)


If I could read minds, I would know when to propose to my future gf because I would know whether she is ready for marriage or not. (thinking too far ahead, lol...)


If I could read minds, I would know various passwords of programs of other people. (thinking of being a top hacker, maybe? Haha!)


But most importantly, if I could read minds, the true faces behind hypocritical masks of every single person in this world would be revealed to me, alas, the ugly truth.

I'm desperate!

I guess many of u have watched this Taiwan drama before... I just finished watching it today... okay, I know maybe I'm a bit outdated, but this is the first time I watched a Taiwan drama, so I wasn't really motivated to watch it at first, and I had the drama in my laptop for more than a year, haha...


After watching it, I actually felt quite moody... Inside the drama, the love relationship between the main characters r so amazing, so magical, just like a fairy tale love story... everything seems so romantic, it's like they r destined to be together no matter what... so many things happen as a coincidence so that they can be together... their love story even stretches from childhood to adulthood...


I reli envy their love story... I envy ppl who have found their other half, ppl who have that special someone in their life, because I don't! Simply, I'm just so desperate for love now... >.<


I always ask myself questions, like, when will I finally get to hold someone's hand and walk life's path side by side? When will I finally get to hug someone when I feel so down and lonely? When will I finally get to talk abt anything and everything in my daily life to someone who will actually listen and care abt me? When can I finally listen to love songs and feel that they're meaningful?


So often, I reli wish that I could be the main actor in one of these love dramas or movies, and end up with someone special just like that... there's a saying '人生如戏,戏如人生', but I know this will not happen to me... I have 自知之明, I know no one would like me... not handsome, no great personality, not the smartest, no sexy physique... JUST a normal boy...


I'm only 19, and I'm already so desperate for love, for a girlfriend... I guess this post will look so pathetic to many ppl who read it... too bad this is exactly how I feel at the moment... desperation, please leave me! >.<

Mission Accomplished!

Hahaha... finally I finished marking all those exam papers... It took me like 7 days, yeap that's right, one week time to  finish marking all the history exam papers... That one week can be considered as the most tiring, the busiest as well as the most hardworking I've been so far in my long holiday... phew! What a crazy experience...


How ironic it is that the class that I hate teaching the most is the class that I love marking papers the most... Reason? Cuz they suck, hahaha... okay that sounded bad... let's put it this way... they're not the smartest students, so they dun write a lot in essays, and they leave a lot of blanks in subjective questions... that makes life so easy for me, I can just breeze through their papers so quickly...


However, for the best class, it's like OMG! They just write so so many things in their essay! For a 4 mark essay, they can write a 20 mark essay for me, insane! And I'm forced to read their whole essay though I know it's surely gonna be full mark already... >.< Sometimes that just piss me off, but who am I to blame them when I did the very same thing when I was in form 4 and form 5? =.= Now I truly respect Mr Wong, my former history teacher, cuz he had to teach 5 of the 6 best classes in Methodist, gotta take my hat off to him! @@


I try marking as fast as I could, but it's hard considering that I'm currently STILL on holiday! U can't expect me to be a nerdy teacher, marking papers 24 hours a day... for the first few days I kept getting distracted by my laptop, haha! So in the end, I had to do something, so I decided to stay back after school and mark papers all alone by myself in the staffroom, imba! And I did that for 2 afternoons straight =.=


Well, I'm just glad it's all over now... Now I'm just looking forward to school holidays to start... Somehow I feel like their school holiday has become my holiday, though I'm ALREADY on holiday... haha...

Marking papers =.=

Well, I'll make this post short... Like I've mentioned before that I have to mark lots of exam papers, well I'm doing just that at the moment... and this has been a terrible experience... >.<


Now I finally understand how tiring it is for teachers to mark tonnes and tonnes of papers at one go... I myself got more than 100 history papers to go through, and that means roughly 300 essays to read over and over again... that's just mind blowing! Well, I'm still trying my best to finish them asap, so that I could finally relax... at the moment, that seems like so far far away... T.T

Real Steel

Watched this movie with frens last night, and it was awesome! The movie is set in the near future around the year 2020, when boxing no longer exists while robot boxing has become the top sport in the world... Talk about controlling a robot to fight for u in a boxing match, the idea itself is cool already, right? Haha... No holds bar, no limits, u can literally 'kill' ur opponent without holding back, no consequences... incredible!


Anyway, the plot is not bad as well... the guy up there, the main character, is portrayed by Hugh Jackman (ya, the Wolverine guy! XD), and he was a professional boxer in the past... and then when robot boxing replaced boxing, he got involved in that instead, though he sucks at it... and then his son came along, and they formed an underdog team to compete with the greatest in the world... the whole movie also includes the love between dad and son, plus the kid is damn cool too...


I definitely recommend this movie to u all... I actually got quite excited in the end, especially during the fights... just go watch it ya... =p

Exam Period!!!

Ahhhh!! The exams are here!! Hahaha... okay okay, as u expected, the exam period is not for me, but for the secondary students... Well, other than one last class, all my other classes had started their final exam/2nd trial already this week... After so many years being one of the students sitting there taking exams, for the very first time in my life, I get to be the one standing there watching over others taking their exams... =.=


This is a first time experience for me... and to be honest, I gotta admit that I'm very lucky to only teach for roughly 3 weeks and start exams already, meaning I dun have to teach anymore from now on... U think easy money, eh? Not really, but at least it's better than teaching ppl who doesn't listen to u at all...


After a few days of exams, now I fully understand the feelings of a teacher watching over a class taking exam... maybe it's just me taking my job too seriously, or it really is like that for all teachers... watching over a class taking exam is BORING! U have almost nth to do other than walking around and making sure they dun try to cheat... Perhaps u'll say teachers can do their own work such as reading books or marking papers... well, the reason I say I'm taking my job too seriously is that, even if I'm reading my own storybook in the class, I'll feel totally paranoid... It's like an impulse, I'll look at the students for like every 2 minutes to make sure they dun cheat... >.<


Sigh, but at least this is better than teaching, right? Haha... Now I look forward to them taking my subject exams, then I'll have tonnes of papers to mark... =.=

The Perfect Girl

What if u meet this perfect girl in life, someone who fits into every category of the dream girl u've always wanted, someone who u'll give everything to be with her, someone who's just too perfect it's hard to believe...


But at the same time, what if u know that u can't lay ur hands on her at all, what if her heart already belongs to someone else before u even make ur first move, what if all she cares abt is this some other guy and none abt u...


What do u do?? Do u let the perfect girl slip through ur hands just like that? Or do u tighten ur grip on a chance of a lifetime and try to hold on as long as possible? Do u even have the right to do that?

Dance To This Song!

So, I've been watching many youtube videos from those top subscribers youtubers lately... well, u can name a few... nigahiga, kevjumba, chestersee, outbackzack and others... last night while I was watching old videos by kevjumba, I came across this song that he produced alongside Wong Fu Production and David Choi... it's called 'Dance To This Song', and it's surprisingly addicting!! Man, I couldn't resist the temptation to post it here, haha... For those who never heard of it, hope u have the same taste as me... =)

Do I look old?

For the past week, teachers and students in school asked me many questions... some common first questions that they normally ask are "You're the one replacing Victoria, right?", "What's your name?"... but more often than not, the question that they would ask is "So you finished studying already har?" 0.0


Wow! Finished studying?! Do I look like someone 23 or 24 years of age to u? Soooo many teachers have asked me the same thing, and everytime I have to explain that I'm just having holidays at the moment =.=


As for students, they will ask me the same question, then I will say no and ask them how old they think I am... They all said 23 or 24! For someone who is not even 20 yet, I felt so old after hearing their answers~ >.<


I dunno how it is for guys, but this is definitely not a good thing for girls, for ppl to consider u as being older than u actually are... For me as a guy, if I'm being absolutely optimistic, maybe older means ppl see me as more mature... hahaha... well, I'm not going to syok sendiri, I'll let others to decide themselves =X

So here I am with my frens... I'm the one at top left, wearing black with some orange pattern on it... so, how do I look? 19 or 24 to u??? Personally, I still prefer 19 to be honest, I'd rather stay young forever! Yeah~~


Anyway, by looking at the picture above, I'm starting to miss my buddies and all the gatherings with them already, though it was just 2 weeks ago when the last of them left Sibu to go off to their colleges/unis... Can't wait for Nov/Dec to come, when they'll be back again! =))))

First WEEK at school

Haha, this is a different post from the last one... This time I'm reli gonna share with u the bits n pieces of my life being a replacement teacher at Sacred Heart Secondary School... First of all, I know a lot of u must be so curious to know how I look like as a teacher... Well, just picture me wearing formal without a tie, that's Cikgu Yong for u! Nth special or funny reli... >.<

So, overall, I must say, I STILL dun like this life! =.= I have a lot of problems with my teaching life at the moment...

Firstly, students... Basically, I teach form 4 history and sivik, and form 5 sivik... I'm not gonna talk abt sivik, cuz it's a useless subject, haha... For form 4 history, I teach 4S1 (best science class), 4A1(best art class) and 4A3... Among the 3 classes, my favourite would be the middle one, 4A1... when I go into these 3 classes, the situations r all so different... 4S1, very quiet, but that brings a lot of pressure to me... sometimes, I'll just wonder if I'm reli good enuf to teach the best students, lol... 4A1, they're a bit more active in class and I do joke a bit with them, it's much more relaxing teaching them... the worst has to be 4A3... I always ask in my heart, 'why can't teachers scold students foul words?'... haha, u get the point >.<


Second, teachers... one thing abt teaching in a school ur not familiar with is it's so boring!!! I dunno any of the teachers here other than my cousin's wife who sits behind me... without her, I'll be like a total stranger in the staffroom... Although sometimes teachers do ask me some general questions, but most of time, I'm silent for the whole day in the staffroom when I have no class, sigh... Anyway, the teachers r ok themselves... =)


Third, sleep!! This is the biggest problem I have with teaching life... I always dun get enuf sleep at night! Imagine spending 3 months of holiday, waking up anytime u wan in the morning, and then suddenly, bammm!! U have to wake up every morning at 5.45am, it's completely zzzzz for me... =.= I tried to sleep early at night, earliest 11pm (miracle!), but still, if I'm in the staffroom, my eyes will close automatically... this life is just so tiring!


Well, I guess I'll get used to it sooner or later, haha...


P.S. Sry I've been posting a lot abt this topic for the last few posts, but that's the thing that defines my life right now! >.<

First Day At School

Normally looking at the title above, u would think, first day at school, as a student of course! But not this time, first day at school for me was as a teacher! >.< Yup, I finally started teaching at Sacred Heart Secondary School on thurs... I got a surprise text message from my cousin's wife around 6pm wed night, telling me that the teacher I was gonna be replacing was in the hospital at that very moment... and 15 minutes later, another text message came saying 'You teach tmr'... and in a blink of an eye, the next day I'm in school with my formal wear on... ==


The first day was well, nth much actually... because I didn't teach anything at all... I was so unprepared that I decided I shud get myself clear on the situation first before I start teaching anything... and so unfortunately, I have 6 classes every thurs, which is the most in a day every week... so I just went into the classes, introduced myself, explained to the boys the situation and gave them their free time... Luckily I was still able to get the classes under control, though I expected worse...


One interesting thing is my age of course... teachers, students, they all wonder how old I am... one student in one of the classes actually asked me whether I just finished university... so I asked him, how old he thought I was, and guess what he said? 24! Oh my gosh, somehow I felt old and happy at the same time, haha! Happy cuz 24 means I look more mature than 19... XD Anyway, when I did break the actual age to him, he was like what?! Enough said.... LOL!


Anyway, I just hope everything goes well from here on... gotta spend more time on books and lesson planning from now on... sigh... how I wish this 2 months can be over in a blink! >.<

Analysing movies

Analyse movies after watching that, do u guys do that? Lol... 


More than 3 months of my holiday gone by now, and I've watched countless movies already... I dunno why I do it, but after watching every movie, I'll surely google the movie and search for movie reviews at IMBD... It's not just reviews, I oso searched for goofs found in the movie, FAQs of the movie, and sometimes the movie tracks... 


Most ppl dun do these stuffs, after watching a movie, that's the end of it for them... but for me, I'm always curious to know abt how other ppl comment abt the movie, abt whether the things happening in the movie are real in our actual world, abt what other movies the main actors n actresses have been in before, abt does those ppl, things or organizations reli exist in history...


Last night, I watched a 2007 movie 'National Treasure: The Book of Secrets'... I watched the movie already in cinema in 2007, but I felt like I forgot what the movie was abt, so I watched it again... there were actually a lot of American history mentioned in the movie, most notably the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln... guess what I did after I finished the movie? I wasted almost 2 hours reading abt American history and the assassination of Lincoln through wikipedia... Hahaha...


Though American history has nth to do with me, I still felt it was worth my time reading it... now I know something that many ppl won't know unless they go check it out like me... xD

First Time Teaching Experience!

Yeah, I became a teacher during the last weekend, though unofficially, haha... My secondary teacher had to take leave from her tuition centre during the weekend, so she asked me to replace her, and I accepted lo... Teaching Form 3 Maths, Form 4 and 5 Chemistry at a tuition centre... one and half an hour for each daily, meaning 4 hours 30 minutes daily... how does it sound? Easy or hard? Haha...


Actually it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be... What I was supposed to do was just give them questions to practise on, and then give the answers while discussing, nth much right? Of course, most of the students were very curious abt my age, seeing such a young teacher teaching them... one iban girl even asked me my age directly, which I just gave away without much thinking... Anyway, luckily the students all generally behaved well in class, and I didn't have much trouble... Of course, in the end I'm still quite tired n thirsty... @.@


Although I'm glad it went well, I'm still expecting the worst when finally I become an official teacher at Sacred Heart... teaching sejarah is so different from teaching chemi n maths... first of all, language problem! My malay is no longer fluent after long time not using it, I reli dunno how I'm gonna fare in the first few days of classes T.T Next problem is the subject itself is so boring!


Everyone is asking me when do I start? I seriously dunno... it depends on the pregnant teacher to deliver... most of the time, these teachers will take like 2 weeks leave before their expected delivery date, but this teacher doesn't do it... so I can only wait, and expect a phone call anytime, and become a teacher the next morning >.<

Can feelings be developed?

As you can see from the title of this post, I'm asking a simple yet complicated question. Can feelings be developed between two person who has no feelings for each other at all when they first knew each other? Can trying to be close frens with that person develop feelings in the end? What do u think? Is it possible?


Somehow due to many past experiences, whether it's mine or others, I just have to disagree to the question, not completely but to a great extent... For example, I had a fren in MUFY who falls for a girl... what he did was he tried to be close frens with the girl, perhaps hoping that one day she'll develop feelings for him as well? Oh well, in the end, when the girl got the hint that he likes her, she quickly turned cold n ignored my fren, it was so obvious that she's saying no to him, forgetting they were close frens previously...

Next example, my own... in my previous posts (months ago), I talked abt a girl that I previously liked in MUFY... well, she's almost the same situation... I liked her, and tried to be close frens with her... but in the end, when I confessed, everything just fell through the roof... it doesn't matter how close u r with the person, as long as he/she has no feelings for u, the feelings won't just come out for u just because u r closer now... there has to be the sparks there... if not, whatever efforts r just useless... so can feelings be developed? I reli doubt it...

500 Days of Summer

Oh my! Oh my! This movie is great! Alright, one fren of mine had already blogged about this in his blog in the past, but I dun care, cuz I just wanna write abt it... Haha...


'500 Days of Summer', a movie I recommend everyone to watch! To be summarized, this movie is abt a girl who doesn't believe in true love, and a guy falling in love terribly and deeply with her... This movie on itself is reli nice, but for different ppl with different experiences in their lives, this movie might connect to them in very different levels... so u all might as well give it a try, cuz u won't regret watching it no matter what... =)


Why is the title of the movie like that? That u gotta find out urself by watching the movie till the very end, which will make complete sense... haha... anyway, for those who's wondering if this is based on a novel, no it isn't... it's a original plot, based on true experiences of the writer in his life...


Although the movie didn't reli connect with me that much, but I still love a lot of the quotes in the movie which completely agree with my way of thinking in life... haha... Do check it out soon! ;)

Form 4 History..................

When SPM 2009 ended, I told myself that there were certain stuffs or rather subjects that I shall never ever touch in my life again, and this specifically referred to one sole subject, Sejarah! One of the most boring subject in Malaysian SPM syllabus, sejarah/history can be a useful tool for us all in knowing our country's history and how it came abt to its present state... but instead of being valuable, numerous topics of the subject r just simply useless and unnecessary... 

One of the examples r the islamic topics, of cuz! Malays studies islamic stuffs in one compulsory and isolated subject called 'Pendidikan Islam' already, so why in the heck r these topics included in History then? Stupid right? Forcing students of various religions to study and even worse, memorize islamic history, what's the point?! (Let me make myself clear, I have nth against the religion, just talking abt the sejarah syllabus, no offence! >.<)

Anyway, something that I thought I would never touch in my life ever again has came back to haunt me! =.= Around the mid of Sep, I shall be a relief teacher at Sacred Heart Secondary School (not my old school btw), and unfortunately, the teacher I'm replacing is a Form 4 History teacher... FML!

It just sucks that I have to touch history again, it's so boring and tiring... the teacher has asked me to prepare notes exercise for the last 3 topics in form 4, n this in particular is already driving me nuts! Everytime I open the form 4 history book, I'll start feeling sleepy in like 5 minutes... God knows how am I gonna survive through my 2 months of work! Sigh... Anyway, I shall start preparing myself with not only form 4 history, but oso with speaking in Malay... and that, I have not done for more than an entire year dy, sucks sucks SUCKS!!!

Just wish me luck! Thx a lot! =(
