Whose life is it anyway?

18. 7. 9. who wants to buy 4D.. ngek ngek xD

Today was saringan at my school. MBSSKL.well, seems like I’m starting to finally treat it as my school. Not like the time when I just entered its gates as a fresh post SPM student. There was now an air of pride… not a haughty pride, but a special sense of pride and identity in place of that initial sense of rebellion. Now I sort of understood how Darryn and all the old boys feels for the school . The rules that I once scorned with contempt, are strangely inspiring now.

I’m learning to respect the school, and respect others.

I like the new me.

I once had the perception that MBS was very passive compared to its vibrant and passionate neighbour, VI. But I realize now that strength does not always have to be all thunder and blazes, or trumpets and french horns; it can be silent too… Strength.. the prize, can exist as talent, the strength to believe in one’s dreams, or even faith and hope in the face of adversity, in pursuit of happiness.

Speaking of happy.

The pursuit of happyness.. btw if you didn’t already know, is a film about Chris Gardner. A really inspiring guy. About 90418723048 times more than Bill Gates. I watched it yesterday night. Powerful. I salute you Chris!

Anyway.. coming back to the 9th of March. Wow, its March already? better start studying seriously. Mrs Ramani couldn’t go for the public speaking workshop at MCKL as much as she wanted to. But she did bid me good luck and told me I better win the trip to England because she’s got her list of stuff to buy from England ready.. swt.. lol

Ran around some errands throughout the sports events. Chow Thye emerged 2nd overall?! Awesome! Way to go guys, though the competition was stiff, but you guys never gave up. What sportmanship, what a show! salute! xD

Played a few chess games. With Jia Horng and Chi Loong. Then later Puan Ng approached me to call the embassies. So, the time has finally come. It was time to follow up on the 5 embassies that we visited earlier.

Although initally unconfident, I decided to give it a try anyway. And so after summoning all the good manners I can find in my brain. I dialled for the Australian Embassy.

Phew.. that wasn’t so bad. xD. It seems that the Australian Embassy will publish our competition invitation in its newsletter next week. For the subsequent few embassies, well, I didn’t manage to get a response, since it was lunch time. lol.

Later met Kevinkumar at the prefect’s room. Good thing he was there! We then went to see MR Wong for the contacts for all the embassies in Malaysia. MR Wong was with MR Giam in his private office. MR Wong was most helful as usual, willing to stop whatever he was doing to print the files for us. Kevinkumar later agreed to take care of the rest of the embassies by calling them during the holidays. With that, the embassy mission for the Civics and Welfare society could finally be considered accomplished. PHew.. =)

Went Koon Kei at Jln Petaling for Wantan noodles.. 4.50 for noodle and 1.20 for the drink. Hmm.. expensive? then went to dentist.. bad news? haihz. then it rained.. = =.. good think I got umbrella.. ngek ngek. xD

And I just spent 2 hours typing that too.
