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!
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.
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!
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!
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!
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!
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!
Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me, happy birthday to Recca, happy birthday to me...Hehe, why I need to say happy birthday to me or wish myself happy birthday? This is because I am still single! I am very scared of the arrival of festivals because no one will celebrate them with me. Even though there is someone who is willing to celebrate with me, he or she isn't the one whom I wish to celebrate with. Today is my birthday, I don't have much wish. I just hope that I will get 4 flat in the coming examinations, I can be with the person whom I love and I want to be at least 175cm in this year.
Next week onwards, we will be facing two-week examinations, which are the harshest papers for Diploma courses! I hope we all can get through them with flying-colours and start our Advanced Diploma journey in the coming May in Kuala Lumpur!However, why I can't remember the facts and things that I have memorised? It's so suck! Forget the things that you have memorised is equivalent to zero or nothing! Wasting my time! Anyone can help me? The answer is NO! I am the one who can help myself but the matter is, how can I handle it? I feel that my brain is getting older and older! Last time, I used to have a power memory. Meaning that, I could memorise things in a short time and I could memorise quite a number of facts! Nonetheless, the power memory looks like saying goodbye to me already! It's so stress and frustrated that the Malaysian education system requires the students to memorise a lot of things in order to get high distinction! The only way that I can do now is starting to study now!
