Words
When I was a little child, I used to gaze with admiration at the adults and the elders.. I would imagine myself in their place, spotting perhaps a beer belly and a bald head… being qualified enough to whisper old wive tales of the things that happened to oneself ten years ago..
Yet now I think that’s just so wrong, or at least, the beer belly and bald head part.
Childhood, a time like no other.
Happy moments:
- eating junk food
- eating wantan noodles
- eating at Mcdonald’s
- studying encyclopedias
- reading story books over and over again
- visiting the night market (for the purpose of buying steamed sweet corn, kuih and more kuih)
Sad moments:
- Can’t remember any
Main ambition:
- to create perfect homework
Life was so simple. Or was it? Well, I suppose it was only natural…
Strange.. nowadays food just doesn’t sound appealing anymore.. even these listed above.. and encyclopedias have become a bore.. I think my younger self would do better in PA.
When one grows up, self awareness kicks in like a kangaroo… so many things, complicated ones.. clog.. not the arteries, but the fundamental mental pathways of simplicity.. no wonder we’re growing old.. despite the saying that growing up is optional, I believe staying young is optional too.. young at heart that is..
Speaking of recent events, there has been so much this blog has missed. Oh well, guess whatever jumps out my head within the next 5 minutes will do…
I’ve been handpicked by the class teacher to become my class treasurer.. Not that I fancy money very much to begin with, but I look forward to this monetary management experience.
So far the only cocurriculum I’m involved in at MBS seems to be Christianity related.. namely the CF and perhaps the Chapel Committee. Well, another good reason to pick up my guitar again for good use I suppose.. lolz
I don’t understand why my lips are so itchy these days.. I seem to find it second nature to jump at the glimpse of an opportunity to any competition without even consulting my brain.. wajajajaja.. already got fished by a consumer quiz, and next a badminton telematch.. good thing the MBS idol registration thingy is already over.. what it isn’t? gee..
Sometimes I wonder why everything gets so complicated… its so hard to duplicate simplicity… can it be used as an arsenal against the onslaught of STPM? Studies show that geniuses seem to preserve a certain element of youth within them.. ah.. speaking of geniuses.. seems like I passed the Malaysian Mensa admission test.. looking forward to learn…
Ah, form 6 orientation.. I am actually quite surprised that the seniors thus far have been reasonable people.. with the exception of certain short sighted individuals who enjoy asking me to dance or find them foreign currency coins, one may conclude that the overwhelming majority of the Upper 6 students of MBSSKL are actually rational and capable individuals.
Ah.. the day after tomorrow is SMK Cheras’ prefect gathering… to go or not to go… feel like going back to my alma mater.. then again, badminton and studies beckon like daffodils in Antarctica..
Oh yea.. speaking of SMK Cheras, who’d guess I was destined to miss Anugerah Cemerlang =(.. but it wasn’t all a lost though.. though I missed out the opportunity to meet my former teachers and a truck load of friends.. my dad was willing to go in my place.. thank goodness.. and he took home some trophies and a RM50 note, well, Choon Keat was the best SPM student by far, and everyone else was pretty much satisfied too as all the former form 5s that day received a glass trophy with a pretty blue ribbon tied to it =)
Why didn’t I attend Anugerah Cemerlang? Well, I was shortlisted to attend a 1 day workshop for the Cathay Pacific Wilderness experience at the National Zoo. Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised, and pretty much excited too. Basically, everything was free, and I made some new friends there as well as learnt some important lessons about teamwork, leadership, and planning. It was enlightening as well as exhilirating.. as well as intensely satisfying to be able to meet, know and learn from each other. The amount of fun I experienced that day was so great, its difficult to put into words… but there was definitely no regrets participating in it…
Now if only I can duplicate this fun in my studies and endeavours.. that would certainly make things interesting =)
Ah.. ten years ago, ten years to come.. who cares =P
