Hairless but fearless (hopefully)

As most of you know by now, i've got a new look.

I was sitting with my friends studying for the second paper of biology when C came and told me that a certain teacher (let's call him X) is searching for people to be the victims. But i guess we were all busy studying until we saw X approaching. X walked passed us and stopped and told me to go behind the hall for a haircut after my biology paper. X even told a friend to remind me. I was like...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.......but of course i didn't say it out loud..kinda. But anyway, i was not happy. This was maybe one of the only times when i wished the exam would not end. coz when it ended it means i had to go cut my hair.

Okay so even before the paper ended, X was waving to a friend of mine who was also as unfortunate as me. So in the end, i went. I really wanted to say sth to X but i couldn't. Haiz..... the worst thing abt it was that i had just recently cut my hair (approximately 9 days ago). So my hair......well to me at least...wasn't exactly that long. I mean give me a break. it's not like i purposely wanted to defy the school rules.

Well, when i came home, my family was not at all happy. Like i said.....i just cut my hair. So my mum just mentioned it to a certain teacher (lets call the teacher Y) who asked X the next day. And apparently, according to X, It was all a misunderstanding. X said that when X asked me to cut my hair, X was just joking with me. What?????? Unbelievable. X had ample time to tell me X was just joking. X thought i was volunteering. Why would i want to? So i lost my hair because of a joke. Great. Just great.

Well, i planned to stay home until my hair grew back but after a while, i couldn't care less. If ppl wanted to laugh then let them laugh. At least i can bring some joy to their lives. lol.

Temporary shutdown!!!!

I'll be sitting for my trials so i don't think i'll be able to post any updates or blog posts. so for now, this will be my last post until trials are over. So i guess this is goodbye for now. But i'll be back......


SEE YOU IN SEPTEMBER ........

Insulting Insults

Here's a few comments that are kinda funny but extremely insulting.

1) Alright, the first one would be the comment "you gained weight". Just imagine coming into the class and the teacher is talking in front. When you finally take your seat, she stops(in mid sentence) and looks at you and says...."you gained weight"

2) Next up would be "you need to start dieting". Well to me, this comment is kinda offensive.

3) Next would be when someone hits you and says "adipose tissue". (For those who haven't studied biology, adipose tissue is the tissue that stores fat).

4) "what do you eat for breakfast? Coz i want to gain weight".

5) Another is when someone says that you can take his share of the food. Then someone says..."then he will be double fat."

6) When learning about fats (during chemistry), someone looks at you with a snigger. We all know why....

7) Next was when a teacher (during biology) says that when you remove your thyroid gland, you won't be able to gain weight(i think that is what she said). Then, someone looks at you smiling like it is some sort of idea.

8) When you say that you keep losing and someone says "unfortunately not your weight"

Those who said those comments, you know who you are. Lol. It's extremely insulting but its okay. It's kinda funny too.

Sacrifice

'My hand trembled as i held my pendrive tightly. I knew i didn't want to do it. But i had to. I closed my eyes as i sacrificed my pendrive for the sake of the team.'

Okay...this was heavily exaggerated. It was actually the last day to hand in our magazines for the nie thingy. And due to a little miscommunication, our frontpage was not even printed yet. So we had to get permission from a teacher to use the computer lab to search the internet for the picture. But of course we had to print it out. And unfortunately, the printer in the computer lab was out of order. So the only way was to save it in the pendrive and print it somewhere else. And i was the only one with a pendrive. Haiz.

Don't get me wrong. If we were in any other place i would gladly use my pendrive (i think). The problem was that we were using the COMPUTER LAB computers which are famous for viruses. But i had to anyway. So we printed the picture in the bio lab. And everything was done just in time (i loved our magazines by the way). So, everyone lived happily ever after.

Okay....not so happy though. I scanned my pendrive in my computer for viruses and guess what? There were over a 100 detected viruses. So the antivirus spyware thingy got rid of the viruses and just to be safe i reformated my pendrive. And that was the last day my computer could be used. After that incident, my computer couldn't be turned on. Sth abt wondows being corrupted.

All my songs and documents (secretary paperwork) and pictures and photos, everything was wiped out. MY SONGS!!!!! NOOOOO!!!!! MY PHOTOS!!!! T_T. To make things worse, it was not just my documents but my brother's and mum's and not forgetting our short stories that we wrote and saved. All gone. Sad. My dad sent it to a friend who could help. He said he would try to save the documents (if it was possible) but if the virus was too bad, he would have to reformat. And guess what? It can't even be reformated. This means that we would have to get a whole new computer. There goes a few thousand dollars.

Well, i guess this shows that when we make decisions in life, we would have to be prepared to suffer the consequences. Or maybe if we have to make choices, we need to think it through because in most cases, our actions will not only affect ourselves but others as well.

But thank God, that my dad's friend was able to find some way to reformat and he said that he saved some documents or sth like that. I haven't gotten it back. I just hope everything will be fine.

Shock of a lifetime

I had an experience of a lifetime. On the 20th of June 2009, I came so close to death. Okay...maybe not that close. But it was close enough for me. It all happened during the scout campfire. I was supposed to help with the fire. All campfires must have a bonfire. So, i was asked to pour kerosene on a piece of cloth prepared for the fire to start. Just before it was time to light the flame, some wire that was prepared earlier snapped. We were frantically trying to fix it back while the speeches were being given.

Fortunately, we were able to fix it. However, when it was time to light the flame, i kinda panicked. I walked up to the middle of the 'perhimpunan' area and started to pour the kerosene. The cover or the lid of the kerosene bottle had holes in them. So i started to pour but it was kinda slow. Everyone was waiting for me. It was like you could feel everyone's eyes burning holes through your back.

To add to the pressure, people were like saying something in chinese. I was not sure if they were talking to me, asking me to hurry up or sth, i really don't know as i can't speak chinese. So i thought they were asking me to hurry up. So, i opened the lid and poured the kerosene. A little too much i guess. Then, the principal pulled the sword from the rock which was supposed to trigger the flame(the theme for the campfire was excalibur). It didn't work. The fire didn't start.

So, with my kerosene filled and coated hand, i lighted the cloth with the lighter. I just didn't think at the moment. More of i couldn't think. So when the cloth burst into flames, it was too big. I was just a few centimetres away from the cloth. I could feel the fire burst past me. My face and my hands felt extremely hot. At that time, everyone was cheering the flame on. The flame actually burst right in front of me. And my hands were filled with kerosene.

I didn't think it was such a big deal until later when i found out that i actually singed off a small part of my hair and my hand had a stinging pain. I realised that the fire had come that close to me, if not burn past me. But i was unharmed. I was fine. I really thank God for His protection over me. If not, i can't imagine what could have happened.

Dark Horse Rises

Kris Allen wins american idol!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To me, i personally think that kris deserves to win this competition. He's got a great voice and is a musical genius as well as a humble guy. It's refreshing to see someone like kris win american idol. When i first heard kris sing 'man in the mirror' i was like.....wow...this guy has a very nice voice but i never thought he would win. I was a danny gokey fan in the beginning. But after a while i felt like he didn't 'wow' me anymore. But don't get me wrong, he was still good. Just maybe he didn't blow me away as much as he blew others away. Kris on the other hand just kept on getting better and kept 'wowing' me. He has a very unique voice and i just love the way he sings.

Kris is a fantastic singer. Everytime he sings, he connects with everyone. His voice has this innocence and pureness abt it and i can feel it everytime he sings. The way he interprets songs and improvises on them is just.........amazing. kris is definitely a musical genius, someone i strive to be.

I feel happy that an underdog finally won. Throughout the whole season, everyone has been talking about adam and danny but in the end, kris emerged as the champion. It gives me hope that an underdog can rise up. So, congratulations to kris, a deserving champion. GO KRIS!!!!!

Heartache or a chance to stand up....

Today, i got scolded by a teacher and i was very affected by it. Maybe it was my fault too because i didn't pass my pen-drive to her earlier. And i didn't give her the maklumat ahli for the new students. But....these aren't my job anyway. Paperwork is supposed to be done by the secretary. And i am NOT the secretary.

She said that she was doing all the work and i was like not doing anything. I did do things for her. I ran around the school before trying to collect forms. I have done some computer work when it really isn't my job. She asked where was my responsibility. i really couldn't say anything.

Then she started to say that i can do things for the christian fellowship club but i won't do anything for her club. To me, i think i haven't done much for the CF this past few months. I feel like i have left everything to the assistant secretary and i feel bad abt it. But i am the secretary for CF and it is my job to do paperwork too. But i was not the secretary for her club.

I am actually the president and presidents have different responsibilities than a secretary. I mean, i am new at all this things too but from what i know, secretaries were the ones supposed to do paperwork. Correct me if i am wrong.

But the worst of all was when she said that she didn't think that i was a good christian. T_T
This really hurt me. She could have said that i was a lousy president or sth instead of saying sth like that. After that i just sat at my seat and drowned myself in my mathematics homework. I hope nobody noticed but my eyes were teary as i did my maths. I was really holding back tears.

It all really got me to thinking. What if she was right? What if it was all my fault, that i was lazy, irresponsible and an extremely bad president. That i couldn't get things done on time. What if i really did suck.

I guess i shouldn't let this affect me but take this chance to rise up and gain confidence. I know it'll take time to get over all that she said but i think with God's help i can do it.
