Hey all, friday is the last day of school and it's the time where separation comes in place. As I come to the end of Secondary 2, I began to have flashback of past memories surfaced in my mind and look how much I've grown from the day I first stepped into the school. The precious friendship that was made and the times spent together may just slowly fade after this day. No more hanging out like it used to be, cause we're all on the different track. Time just flies and it won't slow down, 2 years just passed and it just seemed like yesterday.

I have made great friends that were there for me and people that are always willing to lend a ear to listen to me. These are people that are very hard to come by and should be cherished deeply. To those that were there ( you know who you are ) I wanna thanks them for the words of encouragement, for trusting me and of cause being my friend. You all meant much to me and this separation is quite a blow to me. All I can hope for is that we still remain as what we are now and even progress on to stronger bonds. No words can describe how much they meant to me.

Over the course of these two years, I've had my Ups and Downs. Conflicts would surely arise and of cause times that were great! I still remember that time when almost everyone in class so called was anti me and I really was going crazy. That's where I learnt people relations, I have to control the level of expressing myself to different people, so that people would not either think I'm too proud or too humble.

There is this form teacher that in my mind I think she is a great teacher. Although she have her own set of weaknesses, but what she had done really fufilled the role as an educator, a form teacher. Got to look beyond what she does and most of the time her action surpasses most understanding of people and she was often misunderstood as well. But, she didn't stop caring for the class and kept doing what she can to make it better.

Now the Happy News is, I'm going to the class that I have aimed for since the start of this year and I'm able to take what I really want to do.
Sad thing is, All my close friends is going to part from me. I have to start things new again in the new class and this is the most terrible thing that can happen to me. No more having what everything it used to be like in class. The fun, the jokes and the class culture. I will be like going into the unknown, out of 40 people maybe I only know less than 10 and maybe only 1 or 2 are my friends, I don't know.

I don't know about everyone, but for me, I love my friends and I wished for the best for them and I believe we will still be friends forever. All I hope for is people work hard for what you want and cherish the chance you have and make the best out of what you have.

To Tricia, Kyrene and Shannon (FFL) let's continue to be there for one another and to count on one another because that's what friends are for and that's what make friends forever too. These memories are being simultaneously repeated in my mind and it would be difficult to forget it all. I'm really gonna misssss alll thisss and 2M2 the class that I will never forget.
I love my friends xD =) Goodbye!

Star Thrower

There is this ordinary boy that happened to walk by a beach and he noticed that the water was receding because of low tide. As a result, many star fishes has been washed up by the tide and were sure to die for the inability to have oxygen. The boy came toward one of the star fish and threw it back to the ocean and continued to do this to other star fishes. One vacationing businessman was walking along the beach and saw the boy. He was hoping to teach the boy a little common sense lesson, he walked up to the boy and said,

"I have been watching what you are doing. You have a good heart and I know you mean well, but do you realize how many beaches there are around here and how many starfish are dying on every beach every day? Surely, such an industrious and kindhearted boy such as yourself could find something better to do with your time. Do you really think that what you are doing is going to make a difference?"

The boy looked up at that man, and then he looked down at a starfish by his feet.



He picked up the starfish, and as he gently tossed it back into the ocean he said,

" To that star fish, I make a great difference!"

This is the story of the star thrower and it inspired me to want to do something to help in anything. It may seemed that we can do very little thing to help a situation, but little help here and there will really make a significant difference. Just any Act of Random Kindess would make a difference for something.

About the Global Warming, the melting of ice shelves that will harm life like the polar bear. Imagine one industry could stop emmiting harmful gases like carbon dioxide and just be able to help one polar bear from drowning, although to the big situation it makes no difference, but to the polar bear it made a life and death difference.

Yesterday, I helped Kyrene restring her classical guitar and it took me quite long. I wasn't used to it and it was quite troublesome. You need to tie a knot at the saddle and you need to think of how not to let the 1st string slip off the tuning mechanics. After that was tuning it, you cant tune it without turning many loops and it was really different from acoustic guitar. The strings are, I think more elastic and needs more stretching.

Tricia also came along with Kyrene, they took some sweet and my younger siblings went to "kope" some away. Kyrene also bought me drink for my wage. After that, we went to Cwp foodcourt for lunch, and waited for lionel too. We was about to meet Sharon and company at Amk hub, but when we reached we don't know where to find them. We walked around and slacked, we were "chased" off by the security guards for sitting down at a "ulu" place. Went to have ice-cream and we sat down at the central stage of Amk Central and started chatting till 6pm +. "Laugh Out Louds"

At least I wasn't staying at home rotting, doing nothing.

Anyway, the reason why we were able to went out yesterday was because it was promotion day! Teachers would sit down together and discuss which students should go to which stream and classes. I was afraid that I would get separated from my friends, especially if I'm alone and don't know anyone, like those days in Sec 1.

Hope that as much as possible, I would still be in the same class with as many friends as possible. Good luck to all!

World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade

As written in the title, WoW TBC. I've been playing that for the past few days, it's quite interesting and fun when played together with friends. I am a Gnome, Mage and currently level 13. I'm looking for people that is interested to play a private server that has quite a low population, so I'm trying hard to improve it. People that are interested can tag me at the tagboard and I will look to it.

Ok, back to yesterday. Wooo, yesterday is a holiday and I woke up at 6.45am. Supposed to meet Lionel at 7am at breadtalk but I don't think I can make it already. So I called him and hoping that he will also be late. So in the end, we managed to meet at 7.20. The main purpose for waking up early is to send off Junwen to China. In the cellgroup, only Lionel and me were present, the rest were his friends and family. We felt so awkard then, knowing only a few people. We reach Changi Airport at 8.35 and meet Junwen at about 8.45. Then he told us the he will be going in at 9.10. Lionel and me sianz 1/2, from woodlands go there about 30 mins den go back woodlands already, like waste trip. Then I told Lionel " To us may be "sianz" or what, but hope to him will be meaningful". Then, we went back woodlands.

Went to Lionel house, help reformat his Esys Comp using his recovery disc. He thought that reformatting requires windows xp disc and didn't know that recovery disc is also able to. Setup the comp til about 3pm +, then went to the KFC for "lunch" and continued to WoW when I reached home.

K....... I gonna go WoW now! (Tag the Tagboard) xD

Hello everyone! Long time didn't post already, now nothing to do, so came back and update a bit. xD

This week is the exam period and I get to go home earlier than normal days and it's also the sign that holiday is coming! I think I'm going to do Okay for the examinations and I felt a sense of relieved for this EOY. I still remember how I was struggling for the previous EOY during sec 1, that's the worst times I had in school. During maths paper I will get so anxious, as I didn't get used to the change from Primary 6, so I really did badly for all maths paper. However, my mum wanted me to improve, so she ask me to find out about tuition for my weak subjects and I was so very reluctant to even think about it. I did not found out anything, instead it was offered to me. So I thought why not give it a try, so now having tuition for about near to 1 year and having working harder, I was able to build up my foundation. This indeed have lead me to do better and I feel so much better compared to last year. xD

Although this is the exam week, I slacked quite a bit also. While others are mugging hard, I'm online for the whole day, looking out for new things. I've not switch off my comp since Tuesday, I'm downloading a few movies and games. Game being the longest. I've found out that World of Warcraft actually has private server and it's free! I had long wanted to start WoW, but it requires to pay, so I forget about it. Now I'm still dling it, at 56% and I think it's gonna take 1 1/2 more days. xD

Monday is the last paper for this year's EOY, so all the best to me! xD Bye gonna update again soon. =)
