Orientation!

I went to UCSI's Orientation today. Reached campus at 9.00 am. Felt so ALONE. While I was just sitting in the cafetaria waiting and wondering how am I gonna pass through the whole day, a girl pulled a chair over, sat and started the intro. So coincedently she's gonna do A- Levels as well.( Her name is Rosalind, by the way. )

Ta-daa! My first friend in A-Levels!! ( Wasn't as difficult as I thought )
Yes, thanks to her, making friends were a LOT easier. She's the really outgoing type. Soon enough we found a bunch of pals that were initially alone ( like me ) and doing the same course.


The orientation was real BORING. 9.30am - 1.30 pm were all talks about rules and regulations, speeches, and etc. What a way to start an orientation for the freshies.

This shirt I folded here was kinda of our saviour. I folded it, my friends around me urged me to teach them. They got hooked on, started to fold every piece of paper/pamphlete available into shirts while the lecturer/dean on the stage was still blah-ing away. Well, at least something to kill boredom.

The evil part. A-Levels. I'm taking 3 subjects only (Biology, Chemistry and Maths). According to the calendar, trials is due April. I'm so doomed. Head of A-Levels says to study from day 1. ( Cry.... NOOOOOOOO!! )

Orientation continuing tomorrow. At least its only half a day. Thank god. Free lunch!!!

Haihs, honestly, I'm still not prepared for college life. Not looking forward to this. No turning back though. Just do it!

Confession

"Have you ever wanted to dissapear?"

~ 20 Dollar Nose Bleed

Yes. Countless times. My sense of belonging is near zero.
That's why I question. I confuse. I hestitate. I turn away. I leave. I remain silent. I smile. I cry.

People are like mirrors, you see your own reflections through them.
I've seen distorted images of myself. Blurred images. Additional features. Sometimes it's pitch black. Most of the time, I look alien. I'm a pain in the eye.

I don't know since when I felt this way. But it's been there and it's killing me inside.
When Syn Dee mentioned about the Malacca trip I agreed going. I didn't know why. I think it was the sake of making her happy. It was not because of what it should be.

We went. I finally found a purpose. It was too late. It was on our last night/day.
All I need was people to be honest with me. All I need was to reach out.

I was relieved. It was the best trip ever. I felt a sense of achievement and everything feels like it'll be okay. It was supposed to be the end. It was my beginning.

It doesn't matter what they think. All I need to know is that I'm being appreciated/loved. All that matters is that I am able to appreciate/love them in return.

Thank you, 5 sc1 for teaching me such an important lesson.

Chemistry Night

Went to Eastin Hotel with my mum to receive my RM 200 and cert last night. ( I still have no idea how I got chosen for the Top Scorer Awards ). There were a whole bunch of people, varied from Tan Sris, Pn Sris, Datuks and Datins to small fry students like me and the others and of course the Institut Kimia Malaysia members. (Oh, the Deputy Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation was there as well!)


Went to the table to join the other award recipients.... I was the only girl. So sad. The other boys are from Penang and Kedah. There were 4 Kedahans! ( Kedahans are the smarter people !!) Only one Kuala Lumpurian :( . The funniest thing that is the IKM staff just suddenly decides that SMK Taman Desa is situated in Kepong. ( Note pic)

Dinner was really nice. Chinese Food. One thing I didn't like about it was the waiter that served our table . When he poured the soup into our bowls.. it flows through his whole palm and fingers...... Our table of people had no choice but to keep an eye close.

More pics

Overall this whole event is a good experience for me. Get to meet other smart students from other states. They're real friendly. :)
Guess that's all!! I'm sorry about the Malacca post but I guess I have to post that another day. Ciaoz!

Busy week

Back from a spontanneous 2 days 1 night Taiping trip. Went on Wednesday. Thats 1 week after the Melaka trip. Haven't post anything about the 2 trips... but I will,eventually. This week has totally been a busy one.... sigh... Next post will be on the Melaka trip!

Malaysian Food? Think Twice.

There is no more Malaysian food in Kuala Lumpur. Why? All have been Myanmarised. Behind every dish is a Burmese. And what happens? Our food is full with MSG and oil. We have too many foreign labourers. It's destroying our Malaysian culture.

I remember a Moral question from our Trial Papers:
Apakah faedah penggunaan buruh asing terhadap negara?

I'm starting to question that myself as well. Our food quality is dropping rapidly. Our locals are being lazier. Crime rates are increasing. Do we need any more harm to our society?

In Slumberland....

This was what happened.
Jia Wei was in school. Pui Wan was right next to her studying BM.

huh? Pui Wan , why are you studying?
Jia Wei, we're having BM Paper 2 today!

It was the second last day of SPM. There was still BM and EST to go. Jia Wei thought that SPM was over. She hasn't study anything that is BM-related. And Jia Wei went amok of course. Funny thing is Pui Wan wouldn't share her notes with Jia Wei.

what!!!??Are you serious?? I HAVEN'T STUDY!!!!
(There were more tantrums of course, but I shall not waste any more space.)

Suddenly Mr Saiful decided to have a spotcheck. Jia Wei found that her bag was full of her Trial papers, Intervensi papers and all of the previous exams papers.... but no BM reference books. Mr Saiful scolded her for being stupid.

Finally,exam time! Jia Wei went to toilet before exam, she was charged RM 4.40 for the dirty stinky cubicle! ( Note how auspicious the number is ).She came back, rumaged through her bag but there's no exam slip! By now Jia Wei's friends have already entered the classroom listening to the inviligator's instructions leaving her alone to wave her hands frantically. Evil Mrs Inviligator wouldn't let Jia Wei take the BM paper and insist she looks for the "forgot-to-bring-examslip-documentpaper" from school teachers while her friends are taking the exam.

Jia Wei felt insulted and mocked when she saw some of her friends playing badminton on the way. No SMKTD teacher wanted to appear. She also saw Syn Dee and Kum Foeng playing with 5sc2 students beside a river.

Then I woke up. SPM's over. It felt so real that for a moment there I thought I really had to kiss my 'A' for BM goodbye. I don't know wheter to curse my dream or just laugh at it's randomness. One thing for sure- I'm just so glad SPM's all over and its just a dream!

Wonders Of Studio Ghibli

I've been watching back some Studio Ghibli movies. They're so awesome. Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle and Princess Mononoke are my favourites. The thing thats so wonderful about Studio Ghibli is their art. Still using handdrawings!The music complements the drawings...very touching! Credits should be given to Joe Hisaishi! Studio Ghiblis themes are actually almost the same, won't run away from environmental problems, nature, war and peace, human nature, very educational actually. This is what I call a good cartoon movie. Too bad people nowadays are just so engrossed with CG , braincells killing animations. Support Studio Ghibli!
