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! >.<
