Sunday, January 29, 2012 at 2:48 PM The ones who've been there for you.
Friends. Can't deny that they're just so important. They don't come around very often. It's not like when you're walking down the street and you see a random someone, "HEY HI HO" Bam! you two become friends. No. It doesn't work that way. Unless you're an idiot. LOL Because making friends also means investing trust. Believe it or not, there's gonna be that one day when you're gonna have to share your problems with that friend whether you like it or not. And if you're gonna unconsciously share it with a random stranger then... YOU'RE AN IDIOT. Literally. One of the amazing things I find about friends is that all of them are Unique. You can't find a friend having the exact personality as another. If you think of it in a small group, like in school or your work place, then definitely its obvious that you can't find someone that's the same. But if you really think of it in terms of couple of years later, when you've meet hundreds of new people, you'll realise that there's really no one quite like that particular friend. There's always that one friend you can always turn to when you have problems. Then there's one that you know no matter how hard you try, you can never go about a day with them without laughing. Then there's one that has a REALLY REALLY Irritating flaw that annoys the CRAP out of you but you just seem to like them anyway. And there's so many more.. As I'm going through the different types of friends, different names starts to appear in your head YEAH? Oh c'mon if its a NO, that only means YOU GOT NO FRIENDS. LOL JK or maybe you just got too many. But no matter how different all your friends can be. They're all there for a reason. I know this sounds crazy, But you don't really get to choose your friends. You just meet that person by fate and ever since then, the two of you took off instantly as friends. Plain and simple. Its not like you go around surveying "hmmm you're smart, ok you be my friend" "hmmm you're hairy , ok you're not my friend" "hmmm you're 1 cm taller than me, ok you're not my friend." "hmmm you love hairy russian dudes? ok you're my friend" .......right? LOL So as much as you wanna Troll and deny, XD my smartass can conclude that, They're all there for a reason. Like what Swoozie mentioned, the saying "everything happens for a reason" is only for things that happened that you can't control like someone entering your life, or an accident that occurred. Not for example,you decided to hook up with somebody and say " Everything happens for a reason." The friends you meet are definitely there to teach/show you something about Life that you never knew. Just lay back one day and think about the people around you that have made an impact in your life. I always believe that the people around you, is gonna be the mirror of your character. So what if, you didn't meet that one friend? Would you still be who you are now? Then with the existence of friends, There's also gonna be people who hate you, gossip about you, betray you, People who's gonna make your life miserable. Its funny how people in the "hater category" don't even know that they're hating. LOL Its when no matter how you try to please them, they just won't stop hating on you. They just wanna bring you down. And 2 ways on how people would usually react to that. 1.) They blow up like the CrazyAuntieOnTheMRT and starts @#!&%@! or 2.) Their inner self, just tears apart. What both reactions have in common is that, They will start losing themselves. They'll stop being who they really were before, -Cheerful, Enthusiastic, Positive. They either become more hot-tempered feeling like the whole world is against them or become really depressed and stressed, feeling like its all their fault. And You can't blame them for feeling that way either. It's never a nice feeling when someone betrays you/gossips about you/hates you. and it's even harder to ignore everything that's happening When your friends sees all that is going on, they'll surely try to comfort you and help you. All I'm saying is if you can't solve the problem by yourself, you definitely need to get help from a close friend to assess the situation. Don't try to be captain underpants and try to solve the problem yourself after failing the first time. You'll just end up hurting yourself. Just Face it, The close friends around sees the situation in a more composed and calm manner than you do. So it will be in your best interest to listen to them. Then I hear people saying, " I wish people like them don't exist!" or " I wish they can just eat shit and die" <<<< LOL Don't you think the world would be a scarier place without people like them? HOLLA DON'T GET ME WRONG, I also detest people like them, but imagine life without haters, betrayers, Won't everyone be so Naive? No one will understand the value of trust because everybody would, by then, trust anyone or everyone! I remember reading a book having an analogy for this concept. " Pain is an unpleasant feeling. But on the positive note, without pain, You could've gone home without realising that you've actually lost a foot." HAHA So...Mr.PositivePants here can now say that both your friends and haters are really important in Life. WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT :p
I have had one of the best 3 years of my life in school .
I remember when I was in sec 1 I already saw a lot of things about the school that I didn't like. And I have endure 4 more years of this?! WTS. I asked my Graduating senior if he ever regretted joining this school, and he was like " LOL! OF COURSE NOT LA I met so many brothers here!" I didn't really accept that answer back then, but right now, I finally understand. I met one of the greatest friends that I could have ever met. They definitely made my school life a hell of a Roller Coaster ride. A fun one. :D I remember setting a goal for the year. The goal was like a direction I want to see myself moving to. Like for example, if my goal was never to spout out any vulgarities, then the whole year i have to be on that line. My goal for last year was "Gentleman of the year." LOL Its kinda like a personal self improvement thing. But this year, the goal would be "Appreciation." For the past 3 years in WGS, I've kinda taken those friends who have actually helped me a lot along the way. I was never close to these friends but when I needed help, they're always there. So this year, I'm really gonna show appreciation to them. Hoping that its not too late! Last one before I end off the post. My younger sister and older brother. HAHA My sister irritates me A LOT. But I kinda like her a little. BUT SHE'S STILL ANNOYING XD and my brother... Well he's just another Handsome dude I look up to XD Don't really talk to them very often, but I'm finding time, here and there,to catch up on things. :) HAHA Guess its really time to show my appreciation before they're gone. I still love you. Hope you still feel the same way about me. If you do, please let me know. cause I'm really dying in doubts. Labels: And the ones who've never been. |

Saturday, January 14, 2012 at 9:25 PM For the first time.
Haven't posted anything for quite awhile. Since school has alr started, its really difficult to find the time to blog. You know they say, " The Bad thing is that Time Flies, The Good thing is that you're the Pilot" I think for me, I don't see how the "Good thing" is in any way beneficial for me. LOL If I had a chance, I would just crash whatever I'm piloting. Because in our hurry to chase after Time, we only care about how we want things to be in the future. we forget about how things could not have been in the present. we kinda miss out the little things in Life. The little things, like your parents love that you couldn't see. like your friends care despite showing the least gratitude. like the difficult times you struggled through that only made you stronger. It's these little things that could not have been there, It's these little things that we take for granted, only to realise its existence once its gone. Appreciation is huge :) I had a great start to my school year this year. Although it was getting a little, JUST A LITTLE, annoying when ALL the teachers in every subject, have to constantly remind us about the O levels we have this year, as if its not hindering us at all. LOL I kinda feel that the teachers are more excited than the students. HAHA Maybe they've seen so many batches of students not performing at their highest potential which the teachers saw in them. Watching my seniors taking their O level results the other day made me really nervous about the examinations, because from the statistics and in comparison to my goals, I really have to work really really hard. I made a deal with Joshua that whatever he gets for L1R4 this year, I have to beat him with my L1R5. HAHA I really hope I don't forget this. LOL Other than being able to see all that familiar faces again, especially Ms. MengTong Lumie haha! Such a unique partner! But school had 1 more event that I was really excited for, partly because its my last SC event in Woodgrove. The Sec 1 Orientation camp :D Had a lot of plans for this camp. Now that Hasif is also around to be an OGL, we gotta make things more interesting. hehehe. E.g. We had a discussion as to who be the toilet manager if the sec one's were taking a shower at the shower room. Because we cannot allow them to take their sweet sweet time we have to rush them. In case if sneaky little Hasif and I were doing toilet manager, we had an idea, we would bang on the cubical doors *BANG BANG BANG* Me : " OI 8 mins is all you get! Then get out!" 8mins later and if they don't come out, * Hasif takes out bucket of toy cockroaches * We would angry bird all those little toy insects into the cubical MUHAHAHAHA I had a lot of plans for this camp because, of the previous unpleasant experiences as an OGL. Don't get me wrong, being an OGL is FUN HELL FUN >:D But last time, I was inexperienced. Though there were successful moments, those failures never fail to haunt me HAHA. Its my 5th time being an OGL and I'm pretty sure I'm ready hehehe. After the past experiences of being an OGL, if you're gonna be one, it would be in your best interest to have ready all your nonsensical cheers. I'm not referring to those performing cheers thats like " T2! T2! is the best!!" No. Not that one. I'm referring to what I call "defense cheer". something like: " GIVE THEM ONE WHATEVER CLAP" or "GIVE THEM ONE LAME CLAP!" " I SAY MILO YOU SAY DINOSAUR I SAY DINOSAUR YOU SAY EXTINCT I SAY EXTINCT YOU SAY YOU STINK!" HAHA THATS ALL YOU GET! can't let you in to all of my defense cheer XD hehehe Last year in 2011 when I was the OGL of class 1E1, I thought I was already prepared to handle the class, until when I was dragged into this war cheer. and i failed to defend my class. I failed. TERRIBLY. Hohoho so this year, it ain't going down like that again! ![]() This was taken at the start of the camp. One fact. Most of the SC's here have a common interest "To be OGL's so don't need to attend class" XD CONFIRM PLUS CHOP.
I really thought everyone was energetic.
Until I saw this. If I could remember clearly, Feng kun, Hasif and me were the only ones taking down notes about the camp LOL SC AH! CAMP HAVEN'T START ALR WANT LEPAK! #you siao! XD haha kidding~ I won't be typing about what exactly happened in the camp. Because J.K. ROWLING will kill me if I beat the length of her Harry potter series with my 2 day 1 night stories! JK k I know That was lame. But I'll be sharing with you guys, the special part of this camp for me. Ever since last year's Sec 1 Orientation campfire night, I couldn't really enjoy all the other campfires that I've participated after that. YOU KNOW WHY? BECAUSE HOLLA IMMA TELL YOU WHY NOW. LOL ( k that's more lame than the first one.) Haiz. I don't where to start. I wish I was in your school. That way I could really really understand how you feel. Long story cut short, I was assigned to be the Campfire Emcee last year and when I got that duty, I thought it was really simple. and I screwed it. Rachel was my partner Emcee last year, and she felt the same way too. The feeling was kinda like embarrassment + Disappointment + more embarrassment. Alumni s were there last year, seniors were there too. Everyone thought Rachel and I would do a good job, but... we screwed it. Fantastic. After that night, that campfire experience totally haunt the rest of my other campfire nights. I don't know whats on your mind anymore. I'm trying really hard not to say too much but So guess what came back to haunt me. Yeah you got it. I got assigned to be campfire Emcee again. I was shocked at first because after what happened last year, it would be crazy if the teachers asked me to be the Emcee again. But luckily this year, there's like 6 Emcees Rachel , Veeva , Shermandy, Kah hao , Amirul and Me. Because of that I was actually not that nervous as if anything would have cock up, i still got people to back me up. I also don't want to give you the impression like i don't care. Because I really do care.Worried about what you're going through. Before campfire night started, I wanted to make the campfire less awkward,more hype. I was singing and dancing around the campfire area LIKE A MAD MAN. thats before the campfire even started LOL. In the end camp fire went really smooth and the 6 of us ROCK-ED IT WOOOHOOO! OH YEAH! Hurts to see someone you really like being hurt by someone else and you just can't do anything to help that person. ![]()
The class I took was 1T2 and each class was accompanied by 4 OGLs
which means other than me, there was
Aruni, Joseph and Jarrel. They did an awesome job getting the class together when preparing for the campfire performance while I was away preparing for the campfire Emcee. With their AWESOME leadership, T2 won 2nd place WOOHOO :D Sorry for being such a nagg the past few days I'll stop :) ![]() I felt so good after the entire camp. Mainly because it was a major success and also because I've overcome my fear of being the campfire Emcee. You have no idea how tired I was after this photo was taken. I was actually still pretty hyper cuz it just ended but as I was walking home, the "shag-ness" started kicking in. LOL If you ever need someone to chat with, I'm always here alright :) Walking back home and I kept about this SC event being my last. Mixed feelings. I must say, its from all these SC events that taught me A LOT. I failed so many times in SC, and its after so many experiences, I finally succeeded. Glad that I didn't give up and chicken-ed off halfway. Looking back, I feel really glad that I was accepted into SC when I was in secondary 1. I wouldn't be who I am today if it weren't for the people I got to know in SC and things i got to do there. Student Councillor ROCKS :D Hope one day you'd reply my texts :) and go back to how we used to chat :D ILoveYou Labels: Things will get better :) |
