Yesterday was the first anniversary for my first confession. Yep, I proposed to Princess last year and today is the first anniversary for rejection from Princess. I told this to my grandpa just now and we just smiled to each other. Nowadays, we can treat this as a joke.
I met many pretty girls in KL but throughout this year, Princess is the only one who can impress me the most. She is the only one whom I love so much. I can't find a substitute temporary. She is so great and awesome!
Tell you a secret. When I was in KL, I wished to buy clothes or things to my Princess when I was shopping in shopping malls and pasar malam. I was willing to buy her dresses, shirts and things even though the prices were high! However, I was reluctant to buy me a shirt which just cost me RM40. Haha, why I want to treat myself so unfairly?
Therefore, I am grateful for not having a girlfriend as I can save a lot of money, which is so-called "investment".

KL Trip
I just back from Kuala Lumpur last night. Initially, we decided to find a room and observed its surrounding in Setapak so that we can pursue our study there in May without any worry. However, things were not going accordingly.
I felt something wrong once I was at Sungai Nibong's bus station because I just knew that there were 10 people all together joint this trip. Why? It was just 10 persons, we still can go as planned. Nonetheless, we were fully strange in KL. We didn't know the roads. Therefore, it would be more troublesome if we took bus to our destinations. Thus, we decided to take taxi but problem arose here. 10 people, how to share the taxi's fare? The taxi just can fit for 4 persons per car. Oh my God! Luckily, I have a cousin there. As a marketing executive, he doesn't need to stay at office for long hour. In the other words, he just needs to finish his paper work in office, then he is free to go anywhere he wants, provided that he can maintain the sales.
What made me upset was they even didn't know the location of hotel. Yes, they did do a great job in searching for hotel and finding all the comments to the hotel. Well done but the most important thing they failed to do it. My cousin fetched me and Anthony to the Cube hotel and the rest of them took taxi and they were "slaughtered", the taxi driver charged them RM30 even though the hotel is just near Puduraya, about 20 minutes journey by walking. So, I think, this was the first lesson they learned.
After that, we went for lunch then we started to go Wangsa Maju to find rooms. This time, L.W.H., K.S.C. and Dominic followed us. We reached there in a couple of minutes while the rest were still waiting for Putra LRT. Hence, we went around, looking for its surrounding, taking the notice pasted on the wall so that we could get the agent's phone number.
Finally, they came. They just went to find rooms which particularly was a condominium unit! For your information, a unit of condominium without furnished costs us at least RM1300 per month excluding utilities fees. If it is shared by 7 to 9 persons, it still costs us over RM200 per month. Undoubtedly, the environment is really adorable but it is costly for a student. Unless we don't want to rent the whole unit but just rent the room, then it will be cheaper and it costs about RM350 each, shared by two persons, including all the utilities fees. However, we need to stay with stranger. This is strongly opposed by them.
A cheaper unit but it was not a condominium also rejected by them, they even reluctant to go to have a look. The reasons they gave were the safety is not guaranteed, it is lousy, it is far from college... Yes, maybe you were right but the condominium which you found also far from college and there is not 100% thing in this world, you can't guarantee anything. My cousin asked me to rent a room nearby will do because it depends on our luck for the rob incidence. He said I can mix with new friends at college and then stay with them if probable but I don't want to leave my friends. Actually, I can leave the group but I need a companion.
After that, we were separated into two groups. One group was headed by Ghandi, they went to meet K.L.X. at KLCC, the other group were 5 people, otherwise they could get into my cousin's car. Thereupon, I was the only one who followed my cousin. We went to Melati where my other cousin stays. I was not complacent with that area as it is too far from our college unless you have a transport and there are a lot of Malays. Then, we went to eat Pan Mee but it was raining, so I didn't have the opportunity to try the Pan Mee. I was informed that the Pan Mee is operated by my cousin's god mother and he invested in it too.
Then we went back to his newly bought house. This was also my first time been there. Since my uncle's house is just opposite my cousin's house, so we went there and my uncle set up a laptop for me. I played poker in front of him and I followed his instructions and it ended up with I won 2 thousands chips in just a couple minutes. Then we went to fetch my cousin's girlfriend. After that, he fetched me back to my hotel. I was shocked that they were playing cards with chips.So, this was my first day's journey.
The second day, they didn't want to find rooms already and it was not according to our plan. That means, I could go back on that day but the bus tickets were booked and the hotel was paid for two days already, so I had no choice but to stay. Since they played cards until late midnight, so they woke up lately. We took our brunch at Sungei Wang then we separated into two groups again. This time, my group went to KLCC but before that, we hanged around at Times Square. Then we took monorail to KL Central where the main station is there and my cousin's wife is working. Then we headed to KLCC. My cousin asked us to wait for new Putra LRT because he has never taken that new train since its commencement. We almost waited for 5 trains and at last, we gave up. Luckily, we managed to get into new train on our journey back to KL Central. Awesome, it was so cold and bright!
Then we took KTM to MidValley. Then, we went back separately after reaching KL Central. I followed my cousin to eat 猪肠粉. The 猪肠粉 in KL is slightly different as compared with Penang one. It has no 虾膏 but we need to pick food, like hotdog, fish balls and so on. After the main meal, we were poured with soup. The soup was not as nice as in Penang one. Then we went to eat Pan Mee. Haha, this time I managed to eat it. It was not bad, good recommendation.
Later, we went to pasar malam. Before that, we bought dried chicken meat(肉干) as ordered by my family. I bought a pair of shoes which cost me RM50, it was cheap as compared to Penang one, same model and branded. My cousin told me that KL people emphasize on brand but not the design while I am the opposite one. I saw a jacket but the size didn't fit me. Haiz, it was a pity. Then, we went back to his house. This time, my uncle, my cousin and my auntie were not home since they went to pasar malam as well. Then, as usual, we fetched his girlfriend then went back to my hotel. This night, they really gambled! They gambled with money! So, this was my second day's trip.
Third day, the last day in KL. We woke up lately, so we just took a simple breakfast in hotel. The other group bought Anthony a cup of coffee. At first, Anthony rejected but he finally accepted it when they said it was free. I didn't think so as there is no free meal in this world, I thought it could be a consideration for acting as dealer last night, haha... Suddenly, Anthony split the coffee to my jeans, caps and my bag! Alamak! Luckily, it was split to the lower part of my jeans otherwise, others would think that I wee-weed on my jeans, haha... We shopped at Sungei Wang and I bought two shirts there. Next, we took our lunch at Low Yat Plaza. Then we went to 7-eleven to buy some breads and went back to hotel to take our luggage. The other group was waiting for us there.
Then we gathered at Puduraya bus station. My cousin met me there and brought me two tins of Kuih Kapit. One is for my family and the other one is for my grandpa. He said they probably wouldn't come to Penang in this coming Chinese New Year but they most probably will come during Cheng Beng. Oh, grandpa will miss you so much!
From this KL trip, I am able to see some of the true faces. I learned that people is realistic. I also learned that it is extremely difficult to tolerate with others or to reach agreement or to compromise when the group is big. I learned that everything should be well-planned if we intend to do the thing effectively and efficiently. Don't ever try to mix yourself with those who are not having the same mind as yours as this will make you suffer. They don't deserve for my help. I noticed that my cousin has changed a lot. Last time, he is talkative, likes to 酸 me, teased me and so on but nowadays, he is matured! This is a great thing! I have changed my mind on two of my friends from negative to positive. This is also a good thing. As a conclusion, even though the trip is tiring and wasting time and energy, I learned new lessons.
A big thanks to my cousin for acting as my driver and tour leader.^^ I strongly believed that my life would be more torturing without you. Thanks so much! He told me a secret that he will get married on 4-3-2012. He purposely chooses this date due to its sequence--1234.

珍珠山
刚才，我跟公公及他的朋友一齐去珍珠山。上次，T.R.P.和L.Y.H.还笑我说没有珍珠山的，因为珍珠是在海底的！现在，我终于可以剥她们的牙了，因为我有证据哦！
原来，珍珠山就坐落在拉曼学院附近！我们一路跟着大伯公的路驶去，直到山顶。我在那儿拍了几张照片。
这是在山上拍下来的海景。由于照相机差的关系，因此很蒙。老实告诉你们，真的很漂亮，很迷人！
之后，我们就去看炮台。我原本以为会有大炮，怎知赴了个空，只有空空的炮台。但我觉得并不是什么炮台，它们比较像兵营。
那。。。这就是证据了，我在其中一间炮台拍的。Pearl Hill，珍珠山。
那些炮台都坐落在山上，而且那山路相当难走。那儿至少有五个炮台，里面空空的。但是有看到水道，房间跟类似洗手间的。我在那儿还看到一座塔，它写着"The Contribution For Mankind".
就是这个塔了，刚刚才建好而已。
总之，你们想行山的话，不妨去一趟，真的很不赖！但是切记，要带同伴哦！不然很危险的。过后，我们就去TARc，因为我的公公他们没有去过。我趁着期假，就载他们去了。我一一地为他们介绍，还去了游泳池，并动到它的水哦。哈哈，Tarcians羡慕吧！我们经过Foyer时看见我阿姐。我问她几时去星加坡？她说今天是她在TARc的最后一天，她还给我她在星加坡的电话号码。我祝福她，我祝她一路顺风。她还不时叫我将来去星加坡工作。阿姐，这一别，我不知几时才能见到你。我们现在唯一的沟通管道是你的blog和facebook了，要常常update它们哦！
之后，我们就去Gurney Plaza，因为公公没有去过Gurney Plaza，而且他想去参观我唱歌的地方，也就是Red Box。我们还真大胆的，竟然敢走进去参观，我们只是没有走入房间罢了！哈哈。。。
然后，我们就回家了。行完山，就累了。

钟灵中学龙舟队殉难师生追悼会
今早，我跟Anthony一起去钟灵中学，也就是我的母校参加钟灵中学龙舟队殉难师生追悼会。很可惜，我们迟了三分钟。
现场气氛相当沉重，就连嘉宾上台致词也是毫无掌声，以示尊重！幸好，Anthony眼厉，他看见空位，我们方可坐下。仪式开始于嘉宾致词，再来就是献花,最后就是五位遇难学生生前及生后的短片加歌曲，好像“妈妈别哭”，“如果我变成回议”改编版。。。。。。
礼堂两侧挂着对联，“哀伤五子弟，壮志未酬。痛失一良师，英年早逝。”，礼堂上则放着六位殉难师生的遗照。蔡耀祖校长在致词时一度哽咽。本来我没有哭的，但是一到短片环节，看到与听到他们生前及生后的照片和歌曲，我就忍不住了，我的眼泪流了下来！还好，我还不至于失控！只是流了两行眼泪。我们离开前，还向他们敬礼！

What Happened Again?
Just now, I saw my Princess wrote something requiring her boyfriend to change himself on her Facebook homepage. Then, what happened again?
Actually, before I went to Taman Sukun, I dreamed her night on Tuesday. I dreamed that I was fetching my friends to Red Box. I passed through Padang Tembak but I suddenly found that Princess was there. So, I stopped there and Princess was asking me to fetch her to jetty. However, I found that she was having a swollen ankle and bandaged. Thus, I asked her that where was her boyfriend? He was the one who supposed to fetch her but she said she had quarrel with him and he left her there. For your information, I went mad at once. Nonetheless, I woke up due to the quarrel between my father and my youngest sister.
When I woke up in that morning, I wanted to sms her but eventually, I didn't do it. Then, what happened this time? Some of her friends(I think so) wrote that, why she wanted him to change? My Princess just felt unfair that why she is the one who changes just to accommodate or maintain the relationship but not her boyfriend. She is willing to change for him but he doesn't intend to change for her. Then, her friend said my Princess gains when she changes, her boyfriend will benefit when he changes since both of them have weaknesses, she can't command or demand her boyfriend to change! Yes, this one I agree but why my Princess is the one who changes for him? Why don't just the other way round? It's totally unfair!
One thing I always doubt and curious is why my Princess always forgives and tolerates him at last? If you really suffers, why don't you just stop the relationship? Just now, I visited my grandpa, he finally doesn't penalise my Princess already, he has accepted her. Maybe he knows that I am okay with it already and I have let her go.
Similar with what I had told my Tailo, I am okay if my Princess is okay! I have bad instinct when there is something wrong with my Princess. Once my Princess has troubles, I will feel that I ought to step out to lend her a hand! However, normally I won't do that unless she finds me. What can I do again? I know one thing I can do and I almost do it every night, that is praying for you! Besides, you can always come to me, I am often ready for you. My phone is 24 hours waiting for your call.

Taman Sukun
This morning, I departed to Taman Sukun at 9.00a.m. because I wanted to visit my Mama. She is living there and now is sick!
I followed the map drawn by my friend, Trendy. However, I was lost! Haha, luckily I knew Bahasa Malaysia, then I used this language to communicate with the Malays there. I reached my Mama's house at about 10.30a.m.. On my way there, I totally asked 4 people, two Malays and two Chineses.
This was also my second time ride through Penang bridge! There were lots of nails on the bridge, especially on the motorcycle lane! The nails were not what we use at home but about 15 cm each! Oh my God! Therefore, I paid full attention when I passed through the bridge.
We chatted a lot there and the house looks so differently even though I had been there for week during my Primary School holidays. If I was not mistaken, I think, I had been 10 years not being there! My Mama told me that her legs, knees particularly, very "sour"! Thus, she can't stand or walk for long hour and she feels paralysed after standing for minutes. Haiz... I wish I can help you, Mama.
Around 11.00 a.m., I heard someone horned! My Mama said that was a vegetables seller. He drives there almost everyday just to sell vegetables to them. My Mama is aged and fighting with diseases such as diabetes, arthritis, kidney malfunction and so on! Hence, she can't go to market anymore, so she relies on the vegetables seller very much!
She told me that the seller had not come for 3 days due to car check! So, I asked her what did she eat these few days, she said that she just ate porridge with peanut! She even can't cook! Actually, she has a son who works in newspaper factory but he doesn't mature yet in terms of mental even though he is almost 40! Last time, my Mama loved him so much but now, he always scolds my Mama when my Mama asks him to do something, for example buy something, take medicine at hospital, go hospital for medical check-up, clean the house... I noticed that my Mama shed a tear when she told me these! Once again, I wish I can help her out of these troubles.
We talked much about last time, the time when she carried me! I was shocked when she told me that my heart had holes when I was still a baby! No wonder my stamina is so weak and my heart will pain if I over-exercised(according to my own standard, given that my standard is far below a layman). Maybe I should be careful of heart attack from now onwards.
She also told me how stingy and how my family's attitude when I was born! The only one she praised was my grandfather whom we dislike! She said he treated her meals every time he met her last time and my father was so stingy and he even didn't buy me a swing bed. The swing bed was bought by my Mama. When I was small, I always sick because I was too weak! One day, she asked my mummy to take me to hospital and my mummy took leave and took me to hospital with my Mama. However, I was not served for a day and finally they went home. The second day, my mummy was reluctant to take leave anymore. So, my Mama was the one who took me to hospital to correct my head's position(last time, my head slant a bit).
Besides, she told me one thing very funny and I think, I had heard about this before. She said, one day, I called her to buy 蛎煎 when I was staying at my grandpa's house or my 姨婆's house for days. My grandma told her that I missed her 蛎煎 so much and I had not passed motion since I stayed there. When I went back to my home, I immediately tried to found out the 蛎煎 and my Mama but I failed. Thereupon, I cried! Luckily, my Mama bought the 蛎煎 back afterwards and I enjoyed it. After having it, surprisingly, I passed motion at once. Haha... This is not a joke!
She told me that Alma is near to there too. I didn't tell her about my Princess since my Princess lives there. She said Alma there has a lot of Malays, so the hawkers there dare not to sell pork! Maybe this is the reason why my Princess is so thin, haha...
Before I went home, she gave me an "ang pow" since this was my first time be there but I refused to take it and informed her that this was my second time be there already and because my Mama is jobless now and his son is so "terrible" and she has to be injected or "clean kidneys" almost every month or week and this takes RM80 per time. Instead, I wanted to give her RM50 note but she rejected me. At last, we exchanged. I received her "ang pow" and she accepted my RM50 note. I told her that I am capable now. I work as a tuition teacher now, so I have money to spend, now it's time for me to take care of her and give her money! Before I leave, I wanted her to take good care of herself, eat less glucose and glycerol! I promised her that I will always come to visit her and find her during Chinese New Year.
I went back at 11.30a.m.. On my way back, it is true that Alma is there. I decided not to go there as I had no reason to call Princess out. When I successfully went back to Penang, I opened the "ang pow" and noticed that my Mama lied me! She told me that there was just a single red note but I found two! Mama, you lied me!
Mama, please take good care of yourself. I will always come to visit you. I sure will help you out when I am competent to do so. I will drive there next time, and I can fetch you everywhere during that time. Let's look forward to it!
Lastly, special thanks to Trendy! I really want to thank you so much!
I followed the map drawn by my friend, Trendy. However, I was lost! Haha, luckily I knew Bahasa Malaysia, then I used this language to communicate with the Malays there. I reached my Mama's house at about 10.30a.m.. On my way there, I totally asked 4 people, two Malays and two Chineses.
This was also my second time ride through Penang bridge! There were lots of nails on the bridge, especially on the motorcycle lane! The nails were not what we use at home but about 15 cm each! Oh my God! Therefore, I paid full attention when I passed through the bridge.
We chatted a lot there and the house looks so differently even though I had been there for week during my Primary School holidays. If I was not mistaken, I think, I had been 10 years not being there! My Mama told me that her legs, knees particularly, very "sour"! Thus, she can't stand or walk for long hour and she feels paralysed after standing for minutes. Haiz... I wish I can help you, Mama.
Around 11.00 a.m., I heard someone horned! My Mama said that was a vegetables seller. He drives there almost everyday just to sell vegetables to them. My Mama is aged and fighting with diseases such as diabetes, arthritis, kidney malfunction and so on! Hence, she can't go to market anymore, so she relies on the vegetables seller very much!
She told me that the seller had not come for 3 days due to car check! So, I asked her what did she eat these few days, she said that she just ate porridge with peanut! She even can't cook! Actually, she has a son who works in newspaper factory but he doesn't mature yet in terms of mental even though he is almost 40! Last time, my Mama loved him so much but now, he always scolds my Mama when my Mama asks him to do something, for example buy something, take medicine at hospital, go hospital for medical check-up, clean the house... I noticed that my Mama shed a tear when she told me these! Once again, I wish I can help her out of these troubles.
We talked much about last time, the time when she carried me! I was shocked when she told me that my heart had holes when I was still a baby! No wonder my stamina is so weak and my heart will pain if I over-exercised(according to my own standard, given that my standard is far below a layman). Maybe I should be careful of heart attack from now onwards.
She also told me how stingy and how my family's attitude when I was born! The only one she praised was my grandfather whom we dislike! She said he treated her meals every time he met her last time and my father was so stingy and he even didn't buy me a swing bed. The swing bed was bought by my Mama. When I was small, I always sick because I was too weak! One day, she asked my mummy to take me to hospital and my mummy took leave and took me to hospital with my Mama. However, I was not served for a day and finally they went home. The second day, my mummy was reluctant to take leave anymore. So, my Mama was the one who took me to hospital to correct my head's position(last time, my head slant a bit).
Besides, she told me one thing very funny and I think, I had heard about this before. She said, one day, I called her to buy 蛎煎 when I was staying at my grandpa's house or my 姨婆's house for days. My grandma told her that I missed her 蛎煎 so much and I had not passed motion since I stayed there. When I went back to my home, I immediately tried to found out the 蛎煎 and my Mama but I failed. Thereupon, I cried! Luckily, my Mama bought the 蛎煎 back afterwards and I enjoyed it. After having it, surprisingly, I passed motion at once. Haha... This is not a joke!
She told me that Alma is near to there too. I didn't tell her about my Princess since my Princess lives there. She said Alma there has a lot of Malays, so the hawkers there dare not to sell pork! Maybe this is the reason why my Princess is so thin, haha...
Before I went home, she gave me an "ang pow" since this was my first time be there but I refused to take it and informed her that this was my second time be there already and because my Mama is jobless now and his son is so "terrible" and she has to be injected or "clean kidneys" almost every month or week and this takes RM80 per time. Instead, I wanted to give her RM50 note but she rejected me. At last, we exchanged. I received her "ang pow" and she accepted my RM50 note. I told her that I am capable now. I work as a tuition teacher now, so I have money to spend, now it's time for me to take care of her and give her money! Before I leave, I wanted her to take good care of herself, eat less glucose and glycerol! I promised her that I will always come to visit her and find her during Chinese New Year.

End of Year 2 Semester 2
Yesterday was the last day of my diploma year 2 semester 2. After the examination, we headed to Gurney Plaza because we wanted to enjoy our day in Red Box. This was the funnest and longest time I had ever been in Red Box. You may guess how long I stayed at Red Box. It was 7 hours! Oh my God! We sang from 2p.m. until 9p.m.! Of course, this was due to we took buffet dinner there. One thing surprised me was they celebrated birthday with those who was born in January. There were 3 of us, aL, Johnson and me. Hehe, this was my first time to celebrate birthday with my friends in TARc. Thanks guys.^.^ We sang until sore throat. Haha, but it was really fascinating and everyone of us really enjoyed ourselves! 
These were the gifts received yesterday. Once again, thanks a lot, guys!
This picture was taken at Red Box room 43 with Charlene.
Okay, back to the topic. We had taken six subjects in year 2 semester 2, namely Principles of Auditing, Management Accounting, Corporate Law and Governance, Business Economics, Financial Accounting Practice and Financial Management! Among these six, Financial Accounting Practice worried me the most. This was due to insufficient preparation. I don't want to give myself any reason for the failure. That was my own fault. If I prepared it earlier or if I paid more attention during lecture, maybe it would happen in the other way round. It is now depending on my luck. If I am fortunate, I may get an A but if I was unlucky, I could get an A-, B+ and even B- for this subject! May God bless me? Please...
Initially, we all were scared about Principles of Auditing as this subject had a lot of areas needed to memorise and the syllabus was quite complicated and much! I paid full power on this subject and eventually, I was quite satisfied about my performance. Management Accounting troubled me a lot too. I was not so stable in handling the calculations. Why I said Financial Accounting Practice worried me the most? This was because I couldn't tackle the calculation parts and theory parts! I hate myself for not well-equipped myself!
Anyway, it's not the time for me to worry about this as it was past! I can't do anything to secure this anymore. Let the God decide my destiny! I hope that this wouldn't affect my CGPA much!

谢子俊出殡
今天，我跟Anthony在回家的途中，也就是协和中学那儿，突然看见有警察开路。想必是大人物出街了，但是我错了！Anthony说是有人出殡。
我们看见整队人马大致是钟灵生，就知道是钟中龙舟队的其中一位死者出殡了！细看之下，才知道是谢子俊。我在那灵车经过时，向谢子俊敬礼！
过后，我们就讲起这件意外。这时，我才知道原来谢子俊是Anthony的junior，因此他也认识子俊的。谢子俊生前是钟中无线电及钟中民防部队的一员。
看见他出殡，我顿时也心情沉重了好一会！有那么多朋友送他最后一程，我想，他在天之灵也会觉得安慰吧！安息吧！

First Message for Year 2010
This afternoon, my Princess sms me. This was the first time she sms me this year. In fact, we had not communicated for 1 month!
Actually, it was just a forwarded message but I replied her, asking her current conditions. Since that, we have been starting our conversation and it is still in progress now. We have sent more than 40 messages per person up to this moment.
When I received the first message today, I had a great instinct that it was from my Princess. However, it was not. It was from C.M.Loh about the website of SuperGroup! Then, the second one was from my Princess. Initially, I didn't believe what I saw!
As usual, sms with Princess will make my palms and feet cold. This time was not the exception too. Don't know, I really enjoy the process! Nonetheless, I managed to suppress my emotion now. I am matured enough to handle it! I didn't feel anything wrong, it could be I didn't pay any hope on her anymore but frankly speaking, no girl can impress or strike my fancy like what Princess can to me currently! Therefore, don't ever try to convince me to find another girl as my partner as it is impossible unless I really crush on her!

钟中龙舟队
相信大家都知道星期日时，钟灵中学龙舟队发生了什么事！没错，他们发生了意外！而且，已被证实共有六人身亡，包括顾问老师。
每一个钟灵中学的学生及老师，甚至一些有留意到报导的朋友无不觉得心酸和心情沉重的！我当然也不例外！我一得知这则消息时，我的情绪马上被影响，我没有心情继续读我的书！因此，我今早的Corporate Law and Governance考试也考得一塌糊涂，不过还不致于糟糕。
虽然我毫不认识他们任何一人，不过我好歹曾经也是钟中龙舟队的一员。即使只是一天而已。我清楚他们的操作，也很清楚他们的斗志！因此，每当我听见有人说他们的坏话时，我总是忍不住想站出来骂他们几句。因为他们根本不知详情，空凭他们自己的想象与见解，说钟中龙舟队事件的不是！
我不清楚他们现在的操作是否跟我那时一样。以前，我们是在Tanjung Bungah练习的，可是他们现在却换成了五条路。以前，虽然我们是自己练习的，但总会有另一艘成年人组成的龙舟在那儿练习，而我们的教练也是那伙儿的一员。以前，我们是很自由的，我们可以自己选择是否穿救生衣，而且不懂水性也可以参加，就像我一样，可是现在他们说救生衣是下水前必须的！
很多人都说，那顾问老师为什么不懂水性也可以当龙舟队的顾问！其实，他们不懂是无知，还是故意要作做？硬要无中生有！谁说不会游泳就不可以做龙舟队的顾问？麻烦你们搞清楚，顾问跟教练的区别！我只是觉得奇怪，为何顾问老师会陪他们出海？因为以前，我们的顾问老师是个印度人，叫Mr. Thiagarajan，他不曾看过我们练习，更别说陪我们出海！有这么热情的老师，实属可喜可贺！真是天意弄人！
发生了这起悲剧，很多都说，龙舟活动应该暂停！而我就认为应该继续！理由是暂停只是治标不治本！虽然任何的防范措施都一概只是治标也已，但总好过无！暂停是不必要的，而换个练习的地点则是当务之急！此外，有个教练或救生员在岸边观察练习的情况也是必须的，至少也要像我们以前有成年队陪伴一样，至少有个照应嘛！再说，没有穿救生衣者一概不准出海！还有很多措施可以实施，总之，稍有一项不符合标准和规则，一律不准下水！
悲剧都已经发生了，这是个事实！我觉得我们应该尽快收拾心情，重整龙舟队！延续死者的遗愿，继续发扬光大，为校争光！可能你们会觉得我疯了！但是，你们知道吗？钟中龙舟队可是远近驰名的呢！那，为何要断送这个光环及传统呢？
当下，我们应该竭尽所能，帮助罹难者并送上最真诚的祝福给所有死者家属，而不是追究责任！因为这个悲剧是没有谁对或谁错的！看开点吧，虽然难了些！我们总得向前看，总得面对现实并接受它!
安息吧，我的学弟们及钟中龙舟队的英雄们！我为你们感到骄傲！我也相信你们的牺牲是不会白费的！
