It had been a hectic, crazy and sleepless week for me...almost drowned...haha..one presentation plus a test & 4 assignments due this week alone...looking at the deadlines made me nausea..
Anyway..2 assignments that are due this Friday, 040409, have been postphoned to a later date...hurray!!..now i can breathe regularly leow...seriously.
It was the 1st time that Spore is taking part in the Earth Hour...i did not want to miss the opportunity too. I sms-ed my friends to join in..even sms-ed to a radio station about my involvement.
I lighted different candles all over the house..floating candles near my bed...a pair of tealight candles at the platform of my bedroom, a standing candle at the corner of the living room and scented candle on the coffee table.
Well..i should be doing this more often ...Earth Hour or not..& save electricity bill too.
Saturday, March 28, 2009 It was a boring.. late Saturday morning..with many more assignments due next week.. but i was rushing to UCC as part of the compulsory museum visit for one of the Art module. Although it was a rush-rush affair, i was impressed by the art pieces from Indonesia.
Both pieces are by Rudi Mantofani, and the one above was actually done using acryllic on canvas and it looks like chalk on canvas. My classmates were equally impressed..while the one below were one of his 'knife' series..HUGE BIG KNIVES.. Well at least if u were back stabbed ..u will definitely felt it immediately..a thot to ponder..haha
Some of the interesting pieces being exhibited...a self portrayed of a pontianak by an angmoh artist...maybe he kena disturbed by one in Singapore..haha
Thursday, March 26, 2009 She is a classmate in most of my modules..3 classes to be exact..who always tries to impress the lecturer ...an A student always doin more than required...BUT BEHAVE like a Normal technical student.
It was a tiny..dust speck in size..blown into whole big humongous proportion.
It was really a misunderstanding, my friend and i were wrongly implicated.She was also a returning teacher like me but I handled it better that her, she was shaken, teared and troubled by the whole incident..unfortunately she is stucked to do a final project with this so-called A student.
Aiyahh..writing about it makes me boiling with anger..
Thursday, March 19, 2009 It was a campfire to welcome the new AC. It was held at a neighbouring school from Area 20...but it was poorly planned...badly coordinated. It was definitely badly coordinated cos when the new AC was giving his speech, a fireball that was supposedly to signal the start of the campfire, came dropping from the third floor abruptly, rudely interrupted the speech..& in a second, the shocked but bemused AC unwillingly declared the campfire opened.
When it started to rain in the middle of a game, my new OC has to intervene cos no one from that unit has the brain to do anything. The rain was getting heavier..the parents that were present were already in the shelter but the cadets remained in the rain cos they were were in a middle of an 'important' game...utterly ridiculous!!
Anyway, our NCOs performed a song item with SBS and Zoe as the leads. They had the audiences clapping and singing together with them at the chorus. Altho' they did not win the best performance that nite, it was unfairly given to another unit but to the TOs it was their best performance!!
Wednesday, March 11, 2009 I received a call from a classmate during a group meeting..
'I lost my whole bag..somebody took my whole bag!!"..she sounded frantic.
I quickly rushed to see her at the school library & tried to calm her. It was a clean sweep..the thief took my friend's bag, a laptop at the next table and another bag near by. I tried to look for her bag along the book aisle, in the male toilets and even trashbags...just in case..to no avail. I guess the library is not a safe place afterall...aiyah!!
Tuesday, March 10, 2009 It was bad enuf that I was always mistaken for a Thai everytime i took cab to school..& recently a taxi driver asked me whether i was from Sarawak..insinuating that i look like one of their aborigines. However, recently in semester 2 when i started to keep my hair long..many times I've been asked by new classmates whether i am a Pinoy...haha.. The last straw was this afternoon..when i was stopped by the security people at the MRT station. She wanted to check my heavy looking haversack..do i look like a suspicious character carrying an equally suspicious looking bag. Beats me!! Anyway..when i showed her the content of my bag with my files, notes and laptop..& told her that i am a student who just came back from school. She asked me the magical question.."ARE YOU LOCAL..??"
I GAVE UP EXPLAINING MYSELF..next time i would just say NO!!!!! 11:32 PM

My friends were wondering where have all the beautiful pictures that used to accompany my posts went to...Hahaha..
Well i have no new latest shots...but I visited the Secondary One Annual Camp over the weekend and managed to capture some beautiful people.
Sunday, March 8, 2009 Selamat menyambut Malidur Rasul kepada umat Islam semuanya. Teringat aku kepada sebuah lagu nyanyian Ungu yang begitu bermakna sekali.
Syukur Alhamdullilah by Ungu Slalu ku sakiti Engkau dengan dosaku Ku balas segala kebaikan-Mu dengan kekurangan Chorus Tiada pernah ku menyadari semuanya Bahwa nafas yang ku hirup adalah kuasa-Mu Alhamdulillah ku syukuri semua Terima kasihku Yaa Allah atas indahnya hidup
Alhamdulillah ku syukuri semua Terima kasih ku Yaa Rabbi atas rahmat dalam hidupku
Selalu ku tingalkan Engkau dengan khilafku Ku balas segala kemurahan-Mu dengan keburukkan Tiada pernah ku menyadari semuanya Bahwa nafas yang ku hirup adalah kuasa Mu
Its a meaningful song by an Indonesian group, UNGU. Therefore to commemorate the birthday of our holy Prophet Muhammad, may peace be upon him..i have attached the translation of this song. Enjoy..
Always I hurt you with my sins I pay Your kindness by complaining
I never realize it all that I breath by Your will Alhamdulillah … I thank it all my grateful O Allah about this beautiful life
Alhamdulillah … I thank it all my grateful O my Lord upon the blessing in my life
I leave you behind my ignorance I pay all Your compassion by my dreadful
Sering mendengar lagu ini berkumandang di corong radio..mungkin ramai yang menyukai melodinya, namun senikatanya ...baca sendiri senikata yang tertera dibawah ini. Yang berwarna merah, bahagian yang membimbangkan.
Seperti yang selalu kita baca diakbar tentang masalah2 remaja..Well something to ponder..
Camelia maafkanlah aku Karena ku tak bisa temani tidurmu Camelia lupakanlah aku Jangan pernah lagi kau temui aku
Kau wanita terhebat Yang pernah singgah di hatiku Kau wanita yang tegar Aku mohon lupakan aku
* Sudahlah jangan menangis lagi Ku rasa cukup sampai di sini Mungkin di suatu saat nanti Kau temui cinta yang sejati
** Sudah cepat lupakanlah aku Jangan pernah ungkit masa lalu Ku takut kekasihku pun tahu Kau pernah menjadi simpananku
Monday, March 2, 2009 I have heard of ex-colleagues who are going to be 1st time daddy soon. Excitement. Anxious. Happiness ...all rolled into one indescribable feelings. Well, while I was jogging over the weekend..i received another sms from an ex-colleague who will be a mummy soon...1st time!! She has been trying for many years..without much success. Well, with great patience..finally all her prayers have been answered.
"Praise the Lord. I'm pregnant..", starts her sms.
Although, she needs constant care and weekly observation during her 1st trimester, i really hope that everything will go well for her. Congratulations! Now, i am waiting for another good news from another ex-colleague who have been trying to conceive too. Jia you!!!
