lolz..exams are SO-NOT-FUN!!
waking up early..sleeping damn late...is this what life was supposed to be like?!?
why don't anyone stress on happy childhood anymore? lolz..okay..not childhood..teenagehood perhaps..

but then living on a hectic schedule for years, don't people tend to get bored? everything is in a mess and a bustle. There's hardly even time left ater piano lessons, art lessons, tons and tons of projects?? not to mention..HOMEWORK....i sooo dread homework. Especially chinese. English is just fine to me, why do we even need chinese. especially if your chinese is like..hmm..bad?!?

And of course, anyone who knows me knows that my chinese wouldn't stand a chance compared to a kindergartner..it like, so terrible..i could faint if you asked me to sit quitely and memorise chinese vocabs and all. It would be far too boring. Chinese, i wouldn't say is useless. but then, we should be given the option to choose what subjects to take in the exam. It's so unfair that anyone has to face something unwillingly.

As i Always say, nobody should be forced to do anything they dislike, least make any monumental contribution against their will. Somehow, we are forced to study certain "hateful" (it comes a lil' strong here) things. THe interest isn't simply there. Why not use that time to learn more new and interesting things, rather than waste time staring at a book or either staring into the face of boredom.

As for sejarah, i would refrain from critisizing the subject. I know some people may hate the subject. Facts and all to memorise.. But then coming to think of it, at least there is something solid for us to study.As long as you are willing to study, you'll surely score, and no doubt about that. At least it's not like CHINESE, totally indepictable.

Chinese may be a beautiful language, goodness knows. I do NOT want to know bout it.. But then, it never did occur to me that it was a favourable language. It is not in my grasp somehow, perhaps it will never be.. But let the passing time prove that. For now, it's all about living life to the fullest for me. Life has so much to give, if only we could appreciate every chance and opportunity. Some people do not really appreciate the beauty of life and what it has in store, not me though. Live is unpredictable, full of sound and fury. Colour your life with passion and vibrant colours. At the end of the day, or when rewinding memories of the past, U'll find yourself a very contented person. At least you have been there, done that. Its the process that counts. Even though you don't acheive the best and beat the best of the best, you're a winner yourself.As long as you have the courage to stand for what you want and what you think is right, you'll have enough to brag about the rest of your life.

Just that day, an innocent friend of mine wailed to me that she had not been able to concentrate on her studies and asked me to advise her. Then we came to a topic about life. I told her to cherish every moment in life. May it be good, may it be bad, it may be frightening at times, but then at least you have experienced it. You have done what you think is right. I then asked her if she was happy with her current life. She said so-so. I then reasoned to her that she was missing out a lot in life. She did not have anything to be proud of. She had only faint memories of the past to accompany her forever. It was really sad. REally sad to see that her parents brought her up only the find the child not appreciating the life that they gave to her. Were her parents effort to be wasted after so many years of nurturing their only child?? All their hopes on her would just vanish in a blink of the eye. These pitiful scenarios often happen in many families where the child does not appreciate life. I questioned her again, was it worth it that jz a few moments of lagging behind would completely destroy her life? Did she want the reminisce the past and find that she had acheived nothing in life? Would it be too late than to regret??

The answer is up to you to decide. If you chose what you think is right, be prepared to face the worst, or perhaps the best. Those blissful moments in the past may just be a pigment of imagination to one, to be cherished and thought of. But without the future, would there be anymore memories? Memories worth reminising?

So, never do complain if you find your life a bee nest. In fact, appreciate the thought that you have been gifted this very job. Put your best in it. REmember though, do it only if you are willing to do it. Things never turn up well if the effort is done unwillingly. Love and cherish every moment in your life. Unknowingly, you can make a difference.

The TOughest Job

To my DEar MOm,...

The toughest job..


A CEO, a lawyer, or a broker,
Which job is harder, you may wonder
What about that of a mother?
Hands down, it's the toughest, no need to ponder


Morning sickness, back pain and weight gain
Nine months later, arrghhh...it's labour pain.
Baby crying, night feeds and three hours of sleep
You would be cranky too, if not weep.


The toughest job that you have procured
Would you do it again? "Oh, but for sure!"
" I love you mom" is music to the ears
"Well done, great job" that is very clear


A toast to you, mom
A toast to all the sacrifices that you have made
You're the greatest, enough said
Happy Mothers' Day, mom!!

I PASSED!!!

I passed my theory exam!!
I PASSED!!! PASSED!!!

to tell you the truth..i sort of expected it * grins* hehe...seriously
although i din't pass whenever i was doing the mock test..somehow i knew it..
haha.. congratulate me pls...i PASSED!!!

lolz..i'm supposed to be studying now. but then..important things have to come first rite?
anyway, jz wanted to share tht i passed my theory exam!!!!

Where were you?

It seems so strange that they all meant so much less to you,
those beautiful moments that we shared.
It is sad to think that everytime you held me close,
deep down inside you never really cared.

I believed in every single word you said,
I believed in every promise you made-

I know now they were merely lies you were telling me,
but they're lies that i'm really going to miss.

I tell my friends I've already gotten over it,
but I never let them see that I'm in pain.

Like I never let you see me neaar your house at night,
standing waiting in the pouriong rain...

Even now I hope that you'll know all decisions made were wrong,
And that you never meant what you have said.

Those words of goodbye were never real,
And maybe tomorrow you will change your mind.

Sometimes I hate you for the things that u've done,
but the hatred never seems to last.

My present and future are so empty now,
Because my heart is still living in the past.

Stop killing me off happiness,
Fill me with emptiness.

Stop burning me everyday,
cause it hurts in everyway.

It's nothing special nor mysterious,
It's nothing really serious.

It just breaks your heart apart,

And make the burning tearsdrops start....

Exams on the run!!!

bad news..if i fail tis exam, this coming one i mean..

i am going to screw up!!!

i have to cancel all my activities to the minimum...and that will be like "the -end-of my-life" time!!

so hopefully i can ace this one and pull it through..until then i'll have to study and study and...STUDY..

have faith..even a cartoon can work so hard..so can I ! ^^

Debate Guys!!

yeah, today was the competition day for the state level's debate teams.
In the first round, we were against smk inderawasih. i mean, its not that i want to critisize anyone, but the anyway..the third speaker of that school's debate team was sooo one of a kind!
i mean, he was like, so cool. He went on and on and on so fluently like things were favouring him. But really, even he did admit to me...(when they congratulated us on our victory), that he felt it was baseless and very weak points, but still if you were a debater, that WOULD have to be your duty , wouldn't it be not?

And do you know what actually happened? I mean, its sort of funny, but the fact is..when he was giving his rebuttals, I was kind of worried. Because the fact that he was simply so convincing made me wary of how the judges would judge the whole thing. So, when he was there in front, delivering his rebuttals, i simply shook my head at every single point he tried to rebuttal on. And straight after the competition round, when he shook my hand, he said very "graciously" that he knew I was not agreeing with his points as I had been shaking my head from the very beginning since he started to talk..

hehe, what could i do but say "oh, but your points are really weak. I just HAD to do that. But you were really very convincing..truly.."

and he went : "oh, *laughs* I knew that!"

well, but seriously, they were very sporting even from the beginning. Even when the results were announced, they were very gracious about the whole thing and truly accepted it as a fair match.

Anyway, moving on to the next round where I had to go down to the stand. I wasn't really THAT nervous. But you should have seen the smk Dato Onn's debaters. They were really fluent and all, with their style and yadda..They were quite okay. And when it was my turn to go up to the stand, I started on my rebuttals and then the guy(second speaker of the opposition) went straightly P.O.I-ing me. AHA! I accepted of course.

After the debate, Lynn Hua and Shueh Yin told me that I actually smiled on the stand. And i was like, "o-kay... did i DO THAT? ". I mean, i still don't recall ever laughing or even close to smiling *widely* as accused by them!! but anyway, It was really funny when they told me I actually laughed when i was delivering my speech. They told me the opposition team was "somewhat shocked" to see me laughing.

Yeah of course, when we were congratulating them on their win, the guy from the opposition team came forward and told me that " You deny very sweetly". Excuse me..was that suppose to be critism on my behalf or what? And straightly after he said that, their team's first speaker added in that 'she tried not to P.O.I me because she couldn't bear to do that!'.. I mean, i don't want to sound vain or anything, but they said it in a VERY sincere way..(p.s. You can't blame me for being convinced, right? *all smiles* )

But still, I believe strongly that we could have won. I don't want to raise up certain things that are not pleasant to the ear (or the eyes in this case). But the fact is, after analysing the situation, I feel that we HAD the right to go on to the next team rather that the opposition debaters.

Firstly, I would like to say that they, as the opposition had no firm stand. Their stand was sort of agreeing with us. I mean, in debate, they are not supposed in the LEAST agree with us. And they agreed with us on the stand!! I mean, wasn't it SOOOO obvious that their stand was just plain crap? I belive that the judges should have noticed that, since our first, second, and third speaker had stressed on it again and again, and again. I am very sure that the message had gotten across that the opposition simply was agreeing with our government's stand and thus all the points that they brought up was therefore, baseless.

And yet, the judges were somehow-----. Anyway, it was 2-1. there was one judge in favour of us.
Anyhow, shouldn't the other judges know that the stand of the opposition was a no-no from the first place? haiz..

Well, thing's don't always turn out in the best way possible.But perhaps it is a signal for us that we can make more changes, and that we have a lot more to work on. So, good luck to all debaters out there...and 'add oil' !

What the Heck?!?

I found this stupid message in frienster, and i thought that i wasn't a very good piece of advice. ANd just to remember myself of that, i decided to put it here, so that i could see it and remind myself of how i thought things to be. Even when i grow older, I may change my concepts and views of life. But still I would want to know how I thought when I was 16. How I saw things from my perspective...

so, here's the message..

Every girl dreams that one day she will find a boy that does these things for her. Even the smallest action can have the BIGGEST impact in someones life.

• give her one of your t-shirts to sleep in.
opinion: What the heck? Wats that for? its not like she doesnt have her own clothes!!!

• leave her cute text notes.
opinion: That's all fine and everything. But just be sure not to send the same things over and over again for years..it may start to get boring..seriously..

• kiss her in front of your friends.
opinion: It's fine with me..but don't make it look as if you are showing her off to your friends. She may start to feel uncomfortable and there goes your "perfect" relationship with her.

• tell her she is gorgeous..
opinion: only if it is true!! Honesty helps a lot to remain a stable relationship. But if she doesn't look gorgeous in your eyes, tell her that she is beautiful for what you like bout her.

• look into her eyes when you talk to her.
opinion: this i totally agree.. after all, it IS a form of respect..

• let her mess with your hair
opinion: hehe, I like to do that sometimes. (of course it has to be clean!!)

• touch her hair.
opinion: It okay..but just don't go to the extent like hz did..

• just walk around with her.
opinion: no opinion

• "FORGiVE HER FOR HER MiSTAKES"
opinion: that is a must. To quote, if you love her as much as you say you do, you must love her enough to forgive her for her mistakes..

• look at her like she`s the only one you see.
opinion: you are going to spoil that girl, dude. Its nice and sweet. Just don't overdo it.

• tickle her even when she says stop.
opnion: seriously, if she really meant stop, do that by all means, unless u are prepared to be ditched by her.

• hold her hand when you're around your friends.
opinion: no opinion.

• when she starts swearing at you, tell her you love her.
opinion: holy!! a good boyfriend shouldn't do that!! its just ridiculus..try understanding her problem instead of telling her u love her jz becaz she swore at u..

• let her fall asleep in your arms..
opinion: aww..tat's so sweet.. ^^

• get her mad, then kiss her.
opinion: stupid idea. What for break that happy moment by getting her mad? Boyfriends who do that are plain crazy and idiotic, i suggest all girls out there to ditch her boyfriend if he starts acting this way.. all this could lead to him abusing you.

• tease her and let her tease you back.
opinion: that's nice.

• stay up all night with her when she's sick.
opinion: Yeah, absolutely.

• watch her favorite movie with her.
opinion: of course. just make sure you don't fall asleep while accompanying her!!

• kiss her forehead.
opinion: no opinion.

• give her the world.
opinion: if you can do that, by all means do..but i doubt that..

• write her letters.
opinion: but don't get mad if she is too busy to write back.

• let her wear your clothes.
opinion: sharing is the most basic thing to remain that relationship.

• when she's sad, hang out with her.
opinion: but don't get her even more upset.

• let her know she's important.
opinion: well, tat's a must perhaps..but it depends..

• let her take all the photos she wants of you.
opinion: what's with the idea? completely brainless idea!!

• kiss her in the pouring rain.
opinion: just make sure she doesn't get wet and fall asick just because you wanted to act romantic.

• when you fall in love with her, tell her.
opinion: watever..

• and when you tell her, love her like you've never loved someone before.
opinion: that's the whole point of telling her ain't it?

so you see..feeling's are generated not by advising someone else how to like a girl or a guy..
its actually how you feel for him or her that you actually want to protect her instinctively, make sure that she is happy and safe..

and always remember: Trying too hard to impress, DOESN'T impress at all!!

Legs

hehe, i've had the strangest and most sudden urge to write something on legs.

it may just seem all weird to others, but the eye is a strong thing, and eyes are used for observing aren't they?!?

and so as it seems, my eye's have INCIDENTLY (seriously) started to observe people's legs.

Aha! the calfs and all ...but mainly the calfs, which are the as you can see, the best be observed..

come on, you can't be expecting me to look under every skirt there is right? so, mainly, today's topic is about calfs.

Lets take a look at this one,

This leg is like...so stony and hard. I've observed that most runners do have this kind of leg. I mean, its not ugly and all, but i slimply can't accept the fact that people have stone legs. Its like so hard and all, u can actually see the muscle bulging up. But there are people who like this kind of legs. I used to, but not anymore, Cause it looks a lil' too manly. Try scrolling the window until u do not see the skirt. Just the legs. Try to ignore the high heels..it would seem as though that pair of legs belonged to some man or something, right? (rating : 4)

okay..take a look at this other one..

The 'perfect leg' ..rumoured to be worth a billion$..

it looks so silky perfect, and well toned. to many, it may seem as though a barbie coming to life. But personally, I dun like this pair of legs TOO much. It may seem okay, but not yet my ideal kind of legs. (rating : 6.5)

Hmm, a lil' bony ..but otherwise..i feel that this is ideal..

the ideal pair of legs that many girls would swoon over..

This pair of legs has muscles, but not too big and stony..it protrays just the right curves.

but it is somewhat unpleasant in the sense that the bones are to visible..and that makes the leg look bony, which really spoils the whole picture. (rating : 7 )

no wonder they starve themselves to death!! what you are seeing in the above picture, girls and boys, a the legs of a model. They are like, so skinny. wow!! too skinny perhaps. I wouldn't be comfortable in a pair of these legs if i could help it.. (rating : 2.5)

So u see, different people have different legs. What is you ideal kind of leg?

(p.s. my ideal type of leg is...the one i have right now.. hehe ^^)
