Poll Result for 'If There Was An MBS Showdown in U6K, Who Would Emerge As The Champion?'

Lol. Hannah! Congrats, but we knew this result. ^^ Keep it up!

Super Sunday

Saturday was not some ordinary time in a guy's life to forget so easily. Although it was bathing in the merth of my mom's birthday, it also had mixed emotions, high conflicts, tears in the eyes and tightening of bonds between frens.

We haven't met each other for a year now, and when we did, all the memories of old just came flooding in, filling our minds with the bitter sweet of our secondary school days in form 5, when innocence and ignorance still filled the air, when frens were best buddies, when teachers were pestering old hags that just won't let us be. At the same time, it was also when the school field was our playground, and it didn't matter if we got an A or a C for moral, because we never got past the 50 mark. Oh the nostlagia....

The party was a bomb, partly because my sister's new frens from Victoria Institution were occupying all my breathing space, and oxygen was so scarce that we hid crammed ourselves in the hall playing poker and watching Epic Movie. There was laughs, there were cries, and then there was Chee Kar who just 'suddenly-remembered-got-party-at-my-hs' and popped up out of the blues. The cake cuting ceremony ended with hus and kisses, and mom relunctantly let the bunch of us off to a drink at the nearby mamak stall.

My kai mui, or god-sis, the ever cute and gorgeous Wy-San (I'm not bragging, ask CK, he NOES, wakakakaka!) was there. My cousin bro, Tong Yuan who just got back from Kampar, during his first holidays from UTAR was also there, even Chun Leong was present, along side the other 'kampung' (in Chee Kar's words) of cousins and old school mates. Oh, and Li Qun, as well as Jason, who wasted my petrol to and fro from Cempaka LRT (kidding^^).

We headed for the mamak near Chun Leong's hs, which was on top of this little hill and boasted a magnificant view of Kuala Lumpur at night, complete with the night lights of orange, white and yellow. We sounded like we were in a circus, laughing our heads off, forcing everyone to share their secrets, talk about thier lovelives, and most importantly, cracking lame and obnoxious jokes that we all laughed for no reason (Lol).

It ended with more laughter, and the long lost feeling and bond that we thought was lost to the quagmire of time and space. It was still warm and we felt closer to each other than ever before. Well, dropped Wy San and Tong Yuan and the others home, Jason to the LRT, and ended up chatting with Chee Kar and Li Qun, who decided to stay for the night. So off to another mamak stall!!

It was around 1.10 am that time, and we chatted about our lives like we were never going to have a chance to. There were stories of our families, the hardships we went through, and the emotion sthat were already reaching boiling point. Another round of Maggi Goreng and Tea O' Limau later, it was myturn to spill my secrets, and after listening to thier advises, I learnt soooo much more about these two frens than I had for the past 5 years. It was amazing you noe... not seeing each other for like a whole year, but still being able to let go of our grudges, say our apologies, and achieve an understanding that is far beyond comprehension. It was like having a virtual sholder to cry on, and it felt raelly good. I can even remember what one of them said - 'love is like a match. All it takes is a spark to light it, and the first flames that are combusted will be the most beautiful. Let it continue to burn, and the flames begin to grow, leaving behind a devastating trail of destruction behind. Let it burn further, and it gets out of control, and its only a matter of time before you yourself would be consumed by the very flame that you thoight was so beautiful at first.' It was the little things like this that would have brought tears to my eyes, if it wasn't for Li Qun's expressions that were so fu**ing carefree, it could make a horse grin!

Well, we reached home at 3.30 am, and it was counseling, sharing and discussions all the way till the break of dawn. We palyed a game of Poker, and the winner can ask the loser any PERSONAL question, which had to be answered with sole truth and honesty. It went really well, each of us asking the questions to clear those doubts about each other that has been with us throughout the years. I finally knew that Li Qun had a secret that could make me change the way I look at him, and Chee Kar, well, was the ever critical fren that would question you about every darn decision you made in your life, and I hate to admit it, but he made damn good sense. Lol.

Ok, it was emo emo and very emo all the way, and then came the sunrise. Both the guys had to get some sleep, so they did.

I took to my room, shut the door, and for the first time in my form 6 life, felt tears brewing in my eyes. It felt really wierd you know, all those questions that you really wanted to know were answered, all those apologies you had wanted sooooo much to say. It felt... well.... comfortable, and yet, there was this sense of guilt and trauma, because from it all, you realise that your world is not the world you had always thought it was. It was like, well, you had grown up from that naive little kid in the school bag, listening to Mazlini's classes and waiting for PJ periods to come only to be foiled by the rain. It was more htan that now. Life has move forward. I haven't. And I know it. Maybe its because I never wanted it to end you, kow? This... tis feeling that you never have to worry about things if you don't have to grow up. The people I knew and trust were no longer there for me when I need them, but instead, the people I held so much grudge against, become the people I learn to respect.

Thx for this day. Thx for letting me kow how my life had turned out to be, and letting me kow how yours did too. I'll just have to snap out of it and move forward, no? ^^ Lifes more than just living. Its about learning to live, and living to learn. Only then, can we grow up.

PS: Chee Kar shud really start a book called 'A little fashion, A little Thoery, and A Whole lot of Life in a PotPuri'. Lol. And Li Qun really has to get a haircut, sheesh!

What's A Senior To A Junior?

The orientation for the lower sixers have been going on for some time now, and there are some things I just don't understand. Just today, Chew Wai gave the class a good show of some lower 6 Mori guy (old MBS boy, so plssss dun let me know who you are!) who walked past the class, asked if this was upper six kensett, shook his head, and just strolled past. Does he even know what he just did? He has broken the most crucial part of this orientation programme's aim of getting the lower an dupper sixers to get to know each other better. He has just mocked a senior class in front of them.

Sometimes I just don't get it know? Many juniors have come to us for signatures, and maybe after a few 'tests', which were considered lenient compared to the other classes, (Alairic and Dinesh said someone actually had to make a few rounds in the canteen shouting 'Saya Gila! Saya Gila!') I don't see a reason for him to do that. Fine, ok, it may be a joke. But do you see the project manager knock on the door of the Director, look him in the eye and say 'You are the Chairman ah?', shakes his big head and walk off? It indirectly sends a message to us that this guy is trying to be funny. Maybe he wants attention, and he has it. But is this the KIND of attention he is hoping for? Now ppl are yelling 'Don't sign for Mori' when the innocent juniors come to seek our siggies.

Lolz. Maybe I'm overdoing things la. I apologize fer that. But I do hope that person has a brain, or maybe half of it, to just think over what he just did. Rising a commotion? Picking a fight? People can get the wrong message ok brother? But we are Upper Six Kensett. We are not looney, let alone the sensitive type. The guys can take a good beating and still stand on their feet. The girls lagi yeng - got Hwang Hsien ppl wan rob her oso must think twice after thinking twice.

I'm not saying I am offended. I cannot control wat you do, or how you brain thinks. But you want to get our attention, how about doing something after you think of the consequences yes? Like ASKING us politely if we know you. Or if you think your seniors have a problem, how about standing tall and telling it straight to our faces? Shaking your head and walking away is a negative sign of disrespect and disgraces towards another party, and can result in the other party to feel hurt, dejected or maybe even angered for no reason.

The lower sixers this year, I have to say, are one lively bunch. They come to us sooo politely, its impossible to say no to a siggy. ^^(not to mention talent! Got SHE sing for me you know. Yeng until explode!) So how about letting things be the way they are? I surely would, especially if I'm a Lower Six Mori student from the same school, who has been under the wings of MBSSKL's education of mannerism and good will. Its both a disgrace to your class, your school and yourself.

A superb-nostalgic-crazy gathering

Lolz. Went straight to Times Square after school was out. Was supposed to find a few teachers to get siggies for my testimonial, but since 'some' were sooooo busy then nvm la. Its not like it matters alot anyway. So I packed up, said my goodbyes, cramed my books into the bag, collected my Evo 9 from the car park, paid the guard on duty his usual 100 tip, and sped off to meet my frens. Alright.. not really a good lier am I? Fine. We walked.

The moment I saw the guys, was I aesthetic! One whole year boiled down to the very moment we made our high fives and the old smack on the backs. There were 5 of us in total, except for Daniel who could help being MIA and appearing after we waited a whole 15 mins. Thx sooo much for the sun tan! Weiyan was back. I mean BACK! With a whole new hairstyle! It was all wavy and long, just like those rockers on a live show. I have to tell you, he looked waaay cooler than our days in form 5, cuz now he has the previllage of pushing his hair to the back. Man, the JEALOUSY! Lolz. Alvin never changed a bit, and he reminded me of our old days with that ONE word. Yea, thx lots again man! I'm just darn happy now that you put that word back into my life eh? Weinan was the usual big brother, carefree, happy, and laughing all the way. We chatted of old times and stuff, man I almost had tears in my eyes.

We were actually planning on watching The Hulk, which we did, but that brat Li Qun just had to be late (last time in school not enough fines izit?), so poor Weiyan had to miss the big kissing scene just to wait for him. Wakakaka. Ok, 6 guys, wads of cash, plenty of time to spend. So, off to another movie! This time it was Getsmart, which I had to say no to at first, cuz you know.... harga minyak naik, so ketat sikit. But I went anyway, and we ended laughing our head off! The guy was soooo hilarious! Especially the part he actcually kissed The Rock. Lolz! Weinan had to leave though, so did Weiyan.

Ok, a huge bucket of laughs wasn't going to keep us down, so off to the arcade! Typical boys, you know? We had a go at some soldier front battlefield style 4 player sim, and laughed summore. Daniel kept beating us to the high score, and hi rank was always the highest. Hmmph.... ^^ and Alvin was last. WAKAKAKAKAKA! Then in Daytona, the great car-drifting-mad-driving Li Qun lost to me. ME! An auto driver! More Wakakakakas.

Haha, so ok la. I had a great time thx to you guys. Thx to Daniel especially for organizing it, man sometimes I think there's more to what you show in school. Hope we could do it again some other time. Peace, sign out. ^^

How Much Would A Blogger Blog If The Blogger's Blogger Could Be Blogged?
















Ok... So not the best way to start blogging all over again, but hey... I dun giv a da**! Wakakaka...

You see... stress does things to ppl. Most poeple anyway.... Some just have the mental capacity to get away with everything (I'm not saying its you Wai Kit! You get away with everything!). From the very first moment I laid eyes on my first form 6 examination paper... it smacked me hard on the face, and now, I'm doomed with this unevitable curse to spend the rest of my days as a uniform-wearing-practical-doing-school-going-studnet. The horror I tell you! THE HORROR!


You wanna know what makes it worst? This is no run-of-the-mill paper. STPM is like what? The 2nd (so to say) toughest examination on the planet? And my grades are.. eh.... well...... let's not talk about that. (cough...) So the thing is, time is not on my side. We have another 50 days to our trails, less than 80 days before I start counting my days, and 138 days before I have to face the biggest and hardest battle in my life. And what do I do to take this challenge? I lement, I sigh, I pray (HARD), and I lement summore.


On the bright side, my results have been goin gup lately, except chemistry of course... but Pn Chan said there is an improvement. Yes! My physics went tremendously well, I made it through economy without a less than 40 mark, and my Maths hit a record high improvement of 2.5 marks (35.5 to 37)! Wow! Am I happy or what? As for MUET, well, lets just say it was sort of expected lor... Not giving it even a little focus at all. PA was the usual 66, so yeah... I'll make it to U. No... I must.... or I'll lose everything I have...


Form 6 also has its sacrifices.... I lost contact with my fren who is now in Australia (I think she slammed the phone down on me cuz I din bother to call... T.T), I broke about 100 promises with frens to meet up and yum cha, made my pal angry, and my pimple count is rising. DRASTICALLY! Sobs....


But... While I'm at it, its good that I have my new frens in school to make even the dullest skies clear blue. ^^ Daniel, class monitor, although sometimes whacky and all, still manages to crack up a joke or two. Aliaric, my rider, and professional sales executive, makes form 6 sound like some freak show. Karthik, athough can be a little crazy, keeps me company, and man I tell you! We talk about sooooooooooo amny things you know! Let's see... there's DOTA, and Keeper of Light, and Manta Style, and Dagon and.... wait.... (confused). Then there's Wai Kit. Macho man. The Brawns of the class. He can ace any question thrown at him, anytime, anywhere. I basically rely on this guy to survive through most of my classes. Heh heh. Thx bro. Then Chee Kar. Ok... I draw the line at the word 'fren' when it comes to Mr Sophisticated here. Its complicated. The only thing we have in common is that I know his dirt, he knows mine, so we basically just spend our days 'blowing water'. But if you ever need a helping hand, he's the man to go to la. Then Kye Hoong lor. Naruto fan. (Like I'm not...).


And of course, my lifeline. The only reason I'm willing to return to my old school - the Centenary Library and its friendly folk of smurfs ... err... librarians. Its jammed pack with unforgettable memories, frens new and old, and well, basically everything that shaped me into what I am today. Without the BOSL 2001/2002, I wold never have learnt that Nelson's was the best place to go to or a DOTA game; or without being through thick and thin with my mateys in the 2006/2007 BOSL, I would have never been able to open my mouth and argue like the way I do now (Not boasting okey?) , and lastly, the piece la resistance, is the 2007/2008 BOSL, where I knew I was never alone. Thx guys! Especially the EXCOs - Alexander, Wei Yei, Vivian, Abigail, Rohin, Voon Ho, and the charming Hsien Wei (you still gonna get in trouble). The best part about this BOSL was during the camp An-Naim. Crazy people doing crazy stuff man. Lolz. I think I'll post pics of the camp. Too bad Hsien Wei wasn't there. Wakakaka! Sad... I'm going to retire soon... and I will never again get to be with these wonderful smurfs for a looong time. But hey, we can still yum cha right? Hsien Wei belanja. ^^


So that's about all the lamenting for now. Soooo much crap happened for the last three months, so writing it all down is impossible. So for the jist of it, trails are coming, so my books are at full throttle. Sigh. Why is it that everytime I look back, I just wish I had seen this coming? But hey, you just have to let go sometimes no? ^^ Gambatte-neh!
