Life is fun & unpredictable.

What a terrible week. God, let me forget whatever had happened this week (& what will happen tomorrow). Amen.

Wow. It's going to be June already next week.

Ahhh. Yesterday I heard something very disturbing about my BIO teacher. He said something about us being arrogant to the lower sixth-formers... Well, actually this is a small matter only.. maybe it was unintentional.. but the person who first broke the news to us made it seem so negative... (added with the embarrassing incident where my friend & I kena halau from the orientation room when he was to give taklimat on his subject => giving me the impression that he's going to say something we wouldn't want to hear.).. STILL.. it's nothing big, but it ruined my day. I don't blame the teacher. He gave us time to prove to him that we can cope with the subject yet we haven't showed much improvement throughout this year. But it's still painful.

And today I sat for my [mock] MUET speaking test (we are going to take the year-end MUET)--- IT WAS PATHETIC. Disastrous. Tragic. What the hell was I thinking??! I didn't talk much. I can't find anything to say about "peer pressure". We lacked of chemistry in group discussion. Stupid me! I was very, very nervous since yesterday... My heart even beated so fast before I fall asleep.. & I kept thinking & thinking about the BIO thingy... Yes. Stupid me, again!

Well, I've said enough. Let's just move on with life.


Hmmm..
The funny thing is.. what happened made me see that life is fun & unpredictable. I think my MUET teachers expected something good from me BUT I messed things up. I [do] can be unpredictable at times. (Although this 'unpredictable' is something teachers would call 'inconsistency'...) Maybe I don't want to be left alone even after I have learnt how to walk because I still want some attentions from them. How childish of me..

Life is full of ups & downs, that's why it is unpredictable. And those unpredictable things makes life fun because you'll never know for sure what will happen to you in the future.. Why do you have to worry about the future & not the present time where you'll be shaping up your future? Life is always enjoyable even at undesirable times.

Imagine that you only have a few months more to live.. What will you do before you leave this world? Surely (if it's me) I'll do things I never did before (think positively, please) which I'll regret if I don't do it now before it's too late. And by thinking this way, I appreciate life even more..(Life is also short & vulnerable, don't you agree?)..

Okay, the main point is: Although I didn't do well this time, I believe I can do better next time. I just have to practise more & overcome this shyness which unable me to speak english. Also. I must NOT care TOO MUCH about what teachers say or will say about our weaknesses (or whatever). That was what made me went down during those SPM years.


Ruth, FIGHTING!





Why didn't I say this much during that MUET test??

Can't believe it's almost a month after I last updated my blog...

So many things to tell.. All would be told in random order...

Firstly, we had "Majlis Anugerah etc etc" last Monday.. I almost forgot that this kind of things exist in school.. & I got the highest marks for Maths, MUET & BIO(! Tian ah!) for last year's exam (I think.).. How embarassing! It's not that high....!!!!! Not really sth to be proud of...

Last week, there was a SNAKE in our classroom! (LOL.. funnily, it was spotted near our class's trash can, a trash-filled trash can.) It was small but enough to scare me off my ecological project site (it was at the back of our class)! Good thing we finished everything & what's left was to remove the line transects (Done that already).

Had an argument with mum a few days ago. It was early in the morning. It's a misunderstanding. But that's not the point. I was SO mad that she misjudged me, that I walked into my class with tears in my eyes. I didn't care if my classmates saw me in such an ugly situation, at that time I really feel geram... I didn't know what they think of me.. I went outside & sat on a bench, trying to calm myself. It was the first time such thing happened to me in school. But I felt somewhat moved by my classmates care. They went to see me & asked what's the matter. I silented. But later on I opened up to some friends who stayed over. They told about their stories (regarding family matters) & we had some relieving laughs later on. It was a horrible morning, but thanks to them, my day was not really affected by the incidence (managed to focus on teacher).. Form 6 doesn't seem to be just Form 6 to me since then.. All fourteen of us are like family... Maybe the fact that our tables were arranged in a U shape enable us to look at each other more closer than before. (Teachers seem closer too... easier to ask them Qs now.) I would never want to lose contact with my f6 classmates.

Our monthly test was held last week. Ah. I was already ready to fail for CHEM. haha *laughs bitterly*. Again, I focused on BIO this time. There were only 10 objective, 3 structure & 1 essay questions. Yay! Another record! (lol). All Qs are worth of 50m, I got 27 out of 50. So..ummph.. should be 27x2=54% (yeah I know.. it's not something to be proud about but I rarely pass my BIO papers in f4/f5. It meant much to me)

CHEM paper was actually easy... if I did my revision, I could have gotten better marks. Surprisingly, I don't feel sad about it because I didn't work hard for CHEM. Regrets, yes. But no sadness. I think only those who had done extensive revision, a lot of memorising, etc yet still fail would feel sad because they didn't get what they want.

Maths---> The teacher was absent for this whole week, I guess we'll get our paper next week.. I have a bit confidence for this one.. Answered all Qs except one (not enough time..)

Speaking of Maths.. We'll be having another male teacher for Maths T Paper 2. ah.. the teacher entered our class before & I don't really have a good impression of him. hmmm...

We only had reading & writing Qs for MUET paper-- & embarassingly I got the highest mark in the class (at 77%.. also not sth to be proud of)


PA---> cukup-cukup makanlah. I passed for both papers.



hehe.. sth to look forward: LOWER SIX!
Being the first batch of form 6 in SM〇〇 starting last year, we'll have the privilege to become the first seniors to the lower six this year! huahahaha

I can't wait for the orientation day!! (oh yeah~.. it's managed by the f6 association).. wanna make them call me senpai... ruth-senpai..

Another interesting BIO practical...

Ah...finally have time to blog.

I think most school have done this. Yesterday, it's "Rat Dissection" (Circulatory) for BIO practical... For 14 of us-- we had 11 white mice dissected. yeah, we didn't use rats. We obtained the mice from the Jabatan Haiwan (I think that's what teacher said).. it's free (& SMALL!).. so I don't think complaining will be right cos we got it without much efforts.. (Actually.. I have one rat at home, caught from outside. When I hear mice would be supplied, it's already too late. & now I don't know what to do with the rat [my rat is bigger than those white mice..].. )

I've done frog dissection before, so I know (from experience) that my hands will shiver when cutting open the skin.. But I'm glad it happened only in the beginning. After that it just came out naturally (not the skin).. I was able to do it calmly & meticulously.. I imagined that I was a surgeon operating on my patient. I pinned its skin neatly (even got praised by teacher because I've done a good dissection... hahaha).. Compared to the frog, the mouse's skin was (in my opinion) more easy to cut & separate it from the inside..


Today I presented about Ammonia during CHEM classes.. wah...yokatta desu.. finally I DID IT! I've made it perfectly again this time!

My CHEM teacher made it clear today on why she wants each of us to make presentation on what we are learning. I totally agree with her: It's to prepare us for university life, cos there'll be plenty of "presentations" there.

For Maths... I found the topic differentiation interesting. It's really fun to do all those calculations. I feared this topic before in f4 & f5. What a waste. I belittled my own skills & talents just because I was afraid. That's what you get when you always think negatively. Hmmm.. Just believe in yourself ma, dui bu dui?


A month ago, I wondered what other students (f6 science & art streams in my school) think of me. Not that I care about what people say of me but I was just curious. From my own assumptions, I think they see me as a conceited, somewhat anti-social person. It bothered me a bit. Talking warmingly & making friends with new people are not easy for me. Only those who care to go pass the wall I built will see the better side of me.

But then, I was struck by a thought: So what? I can't satisfy everyone's taste. If they can't accept me (ie. we have opposite beliefs/characteristics/principles) then let it be. Maybe we are not meant to be friends anyway (I might not like her/him too).

I think what's important is to just express myself honestly without pretending as someone I'm not. I'm willing to help anyone who needs my help as long as I am able to do it.

Enjoying Form 6 Life~

---"Everything will be okay as long as I smile...^__^"
---"I [will] only compete with myself. If I win, I win OVER myself. If I lose, even if there's someone else behind me, I STILL lose to myself."


To all upper sixth-former around Malaysia: Are you enjoying your upper-six life?


I can't declare that I enjoy it right now.. but it's A LOT better than SPM life(really!). Maybe because the teachers are starting to treat us as [early] adults... Babbling & nagging are needless.. hmmm.. or maybe it's because of myself. Changing my way of viewing things & attitude might have contributed to this ermm..positive thought of better life in Form 6.

I tell you: My SPM life was a mess. It's a hellish transition period towards moving to higher level education. TERRIBLE & PATHETIC. A NIGHTMARE hard to forget. I can't imagine how I could live through the dark years of SPM & still afford to get half of my subjects A-ed. But all my science subjects scored rubbish...


Now I still have those uncompleted homework, I-Don't-Know-&-gets-blur times... I still watch CJK dramas on TV (still DLs some, but I resist watching them)... Still surf the net... etc

BUT I keep in mind what I should do. I want to spend more time studying while still be able to do all those guilty pleasures. I think it's a possible thing to do.

I know upper 6 year is a CRITICAL year for all sixth-formers. But I'm going to turn down all those usual, typical teachers advice... (That's what happen in form 4/5 when I care much about what they say.. & not to mention that I tried to follow their advice...& screwed up my SPM life)

This Year, I want to
(i) keep myself VERY busy so that I won't have time to think about foolish things & ideas.
(ii) keep on smiling no matter what happens
(iii) be more confident & couragous
(iv) be more sociable to others
(v) strengthens my relationship with God
(vi) *six!* get GOOD STPM results!


Fighting!

A BLUR-ry Week

Feeling blurry last week...

Aish... I get "blurred" a lot during Chemistry classes... Not that it's hard to understand, but.. scientific concepts are slow to digest at times..

Anyway. New things in our class last week - we re-painted the class in green + yellow & we have our own computer! It was Mr. K.Ng (Guru Pakar) intentions to put one in our class for Biology class use. But, of course, [we,] being fun-loving early adults, the computer would be used illegally by us as a source of entertainment!

I would copy some STPM trial/exam/test papers I found on the net to the computer. I think it would help us a lot in the future.

Oh yeah. I went to a seminar (with a friend) on Kursk State Medical University (KSMU) last Thursday in Promenade at NIGHT! I wonder why it was held that late~ Well, KSMU is recognised in Malaysia (See article: Make sure the colleges are recognised here). It went well. They gave a somewhat detailed information about the university & also the processes (presentation by the agent - Magaram Enterprise or ME). There's an emphasise on safety; eg. students must always let their parents know about their whereabouts, call them when they reached there... They even gave an example about those who went to Europe without telling their parents (on holidays) which made the parents worry (who called the ME later on to ask them)..it could be a chaotic situation I think..So the ME doesn't want that to happen.

My friend is interested in furthering her studies in Russia for Medicine after STPM. I hope the seminar helped her a lot.

Last week was also the week for Kokum's Mesyuarat Agung... I joined St. John Ambulance & Netball club. It's the first time I knew about St. John Ambulance (INTERESTING!). Lok Yuk (my last school) doesn't have this (which is a pity)...

Late updates.....

I didn't forget that I have a blog..^_^

Aish... did I have a good start at school on 3 January? I don't think so. It's not bad but really.. it's nothing special. Initially, I was so excited of our new timetable. Before school ended last year, we got a letter from school telling us that starting 3 Jan 2007, the science stream students would return home late (3-4 pm).. extra classes.. which I think is good.. But.. it looks like the school haven't got the permission from the ministry of education to do that.. (that's funny)..

Our Chemistry teacher turned out to be a FEMALE teacher. *sigh*
The funny thing is, she's a quite cute teacher - Half of her is like my form 5 CHEM teacher (have that fragile, vulnerable look) BUT also half of my form 4 CHEM teacher's STRICTNESS (which is good).. She's somewhat good too, I can easily understand what she's teaching. When it comes to CHEM exercises, she gave us worksheets for every topic & make it compulsory for us to own the LONGMAN's 1999-2004 past years collection (original or photocopied).. We frequently have quizzes to see how far have we "digest" what we are taught.. She's OUR class teacher too.

Mr. R is gone. He was a very fun Maths teacher *I'm going to miss his jokes* but maybe as this is our last & important year, he (or the pengetua) doesn't want to screw up our chances (I think)-- he has to go. And another FEMALE teacher replaced him. I'll call her Miss Shrny. Compared to Mr. R, she teaches with better speed... We still have many chapters to cover on.. She somewhat reminds me of my form 4/5 Matematik Tambahan (Add Maths) teacher but without my former teacher's smile & sunniness.

Our MUET classes also have changes. Our former MUET teacher was 'sent' to the evening school session & we now have two brand new faces for MUET. Mr. Jai (who graduated in UK) teaches us Paper 1-3 & Miss Flo teaches us Paper 4. (I shortened their names)..

The only teachers that remain unchanged are BIO teacher & PA teachers. I love my BIO teacher, I'm so glad he still stays.

Did this few blogthings...



You Are 18 Years Old



Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.

13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

What Age Do You Act?
Haha. I already did this once, when I was in form 4 (I was 16 years old) & I got the same number 16! And now, for this year, I got the same too, 18 years old! I act like my real age!





What Your Soul Really Looks Like



You are very passionate and quite temperamental. While you can be moody, you always crave comfort.

You are a grounded person, but you also leave room for imagination and dreams. You feet may be on the ground, but you're head is in the clouds.

You believe that people see you as larger than life and important. While this is true, they also think you're a bit full of yourself.

Your near future is a lot like the present, and as far as you're concerned, that's a very good thing.

For you, love is all about caring and comfort. You couldn't fall in love with someone you didn't trust.

Inside the Room of Your Soul





You Have Your Sarcastic Moments



While you're not sarcastic at all times, you definitely have a cynical edge.

In your opinion, not all people are annoying. Some are dead!

And although you do have your genuine moments, you can't help getting your zingers in.

Some people might be a little hurt by your sarcasm, but it's more likely they think you're hilarious.

How Sarcastic Are You?
Don't you ever feel it's amazing how such fun quizzes could tell something about yourself when you answered it honestly? (I like Blogthings & Tickle!)





Who Should Paint You: Salvador Dali



You're a complex, intense creature who displays many layers.

There's no way a traditional portrait could ever capture you!

What Artist Should Paint Your Portrait?
Oh, I love this one! Salvador Dali! I knew about him after watching "Love of the Aegean Sea". Well, En Qi likes his masterpiece, "[The] Persistence of the memory" (《記憶的持續性》Ji Yi De Chi Xu OR 《記憶的永恒》Ji Yi De Yong Heng) which somewhat signifies his lonely, boring life. It's a sweet coincidence that I got Salvador Dali for this blogthing quiz. ^__^





Your World View


You are a cautious type, neutral, and rather insecure.

You would agree with the idea that everybody has his price...

And in your own case it would not be high.



You are ruled by an inferiority complex and not easy to assess.

How do you present yourself to the world?

An idealist, a moralist, a conformist keeping up with the Joneses?

What Is Your World View?
Oh! So true! So true!






Your Famous Last Words Will Be:



"Goodbye. I am leaving because I am bored."

What Will Your Famous Last Words Be?
Don't remember when I did this (saved it in my opera notes) but wow. How 'boring'.





The Keys to Your Heart



You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.

In love, you feel the most alive when things are straight-forward, and you're told that you're loved.

You'd like to your lover to think you are optimistic and happy.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please.

Your ideal relationship is open. Both of you can talk about everything... no secrets.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.

You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.

In this moment, you think of love as something you can get or discard anytime. You're feeling self centered.

What Are The Keys To Your Heart?
I'm SO going to remember this.





Your Personality Is



Idealist (NF)


You are a passionate, caring, and unique person.

You are good at expressing yourself and sharing your ideals.

You are the most compassionate of all types and connect with others easily.

Your heart tends to rule you. You can't make decisions without considering feelings.

You seek out other empathetic people to befriend.

Truth and authenticity matters in your friendships.

In love, you give everything you have to relationships. You fall in love easily.

At work, you crave personal expression and meaning in your career.

With others, you communicate well. You can spend all night talking with someone.

As far as your looks go, you've likely taken the time to develop your own personal style.

On weekends, you like to be with others. Charity work is also a favorite pastime of yours.

The Three Question Personality Test
Funny. Someone also think that I'm an idealist.

Something...

Posted in: ~Thursday Posts | 2006 posts | Cringy Teenage Years | Old Blog | School: Form 6

Insects Collection
It seems that we could finish collecting insects before school holidays! I hope so, because it's very bothersome to do the project during holidays where I can use the time catching insects to study (finish reading all the syllabus & do exercises!).

We still have to preserve 25 plants-lah. But that's MORE easily done than insects.

& I admit that PRESERVING INSECT is fun. yeah, I know it seems cruel... but the good thing is, I started to pay close attention to nature. I realise that there's so many unique insects around us. The bad thing is, I'm good at spotting/finding them but don't have enough guts to catch them.


WHY NOT?
Because I focused more on studying BIO lately (& also most of my classmates), we were very anxious about our final exam marks.

What I can say about mine: .............Yokatta desu... I'm REALLY GLAD that I passed. (I failed last BIO monthly test. & I never passed BIO papers in f4/f5.)

Marks for Paper 1 & Paper 2 are calculated separately. Passing mark is 40(/60) for paper 2. I can't remember Paper 1's..20 or 30?... Anyway, I got 37/50 for Paper 1 & 47/60 100 for Paper 2.. so for Paper 1 - it's 74%, & Paper 2 - 78% *oops. Stupid MIScalculation. But I still passed anyway.*.

It was an ugly situation when the BIO teacher returned our papers. He, again, stressed out about re-thinking.
"Think carefully whether you still want to do this (BIO, form 6). If you think it's difficult right now, don't think it's going to be easier in the future. It will be MORE difficult later. So if your Maths & other science subjects are... then you should think again."

That was yesterday. Today, he had a little talk with a friend of mine, Ren-chan. He was her teacher back then in f4/f5 - & he told her that her results were never good that she should "re-think".

How tragic.

I guess I rarely see a decent teacher in Malaysia (well, at least in Sabah.). Or is it there's none of such teachers ever exist in M'sia. Or it's just sth every Form 6 teachers have (funnily, form 4/5 teachers also have this). Pathetic.

I thought teachers should expose their students to the world of possibilities. Keep telling their students that it's not impossible to do this or that. Although there might be setbacks & unfortunate events, teachers should still "let" their students know that there's "light" in everything. That when you fail, doesn't mean you fail throughout your life. *sigh* maybe teachers nowadays have lost hopes in their students. Unless they prove to that teacher that they are a "genius" then only the teachers want to help them. Why should it be like that?

Teachers do not think of their students as their own children. Why should they? They are not related to each other. But having teachers thinking that way means having teachers who do not care about their students welfare. & again, why should they? They are not related.

What an ugly reality.

I feel hurt with [teachers of] such manners. My other friends too. Some of them even seem to start re-thinking whether to drop Form 6 or not. I told her no. "If you want to re-think, re-think a way to improve your results & NOT about dropping f6."

I think a teacher could never be liked as a person. I personally like teachers who CAN teach & have a positive attitude/manner.

*sigh...* so many things happened during the day I was absent from blogging...

I'll just start my post today about my final exams.

I really had a bad experience answering science subjectS papers during f4 & f5. Many questions (particularly structure & essay ones) were left unanswered. & yes. I did the same in SPM. But I managed to answer some of questions (SPM), though... *laughs bitterly* no wonder I got Cs for all my science subjectS.

Anyway, this time... I've prepared specially for BIO. I've read, understood, & looked for potential questions that the teacher might use (he said essay questions will come from the Bio LONGMAN).. & wah.. the questions I predicted.. all came out. Coincidentally & fortunately, I studied (& somewhat memorise) the answers beforehand.. So..it came out all naturally... muntah(vomitted) all the keywords & important points...

For the first time in my life, ...I feel good handing in my BIO 2 answer paper(s). At that time, I also feel satisfied because I know I've worked hard for this. Well, not hard enough but still better than before.

I'm somewhat more comfortable learning BIO in english rather than in BM. I don't know why. yeah, I admit that it seems harder (I'd learnt science in BM since primary school). But I still feel it's somewhat convenient.

& we're going to start that insect & plant collection soon... I'm so excited about it but at the same time feel nervous cos I'm going to work in group with new ppl.. & insects. I'm not sure if I can handle the insects. After this Raya holiday, we'll learn how to preserve it first.

& also this. I never like getting shots but this is important. *sigh* .. ai.. 3 doses... mati-lah (._.)

Had an interview during exam. School Prefect Interview. The interview made me feel so useless.I'm just not fit to become a prefect because I have NO leadership value & I have NO experience. & *ah* coincidentally, I don't like the interviewer (a teacher, never had a good impression about him since I first saw him). & to make it worse, I was REALLY in a BAD MOOD that day. LOL.. we had our class photo taken the very same day. *AH* I'm not smiling perfectly in the photo! Stupid bad mood!

Well.. back to the interview... it seems that my jawatanS in kokum (form 5) counts.. & my being good at using computers... also another point. BUT I think I'm not going to make it. The truth is, I rather be a librarian (but I'm not sure if that's counted as kokum activities). I'm not a prefect material. I know that. That hated interviewer made me feel like that way. I hope I'M NOT CHOSEN. I really, really hope.

Why is it "becoming a prefect" counted as an "involving in kokum" activity anyway? Has the definition of kokum change after I get into form 6, or is it that what I learnt all this years about kokum being "activities outside classroom" is totally wrong?

Please don't mind my whinings.. there's a better explanation for this here.

The problem is, I don't even know if I can participate in other club or PERSATUAN other than Persatuan Tingkatan 6 & this prefect thing. The best thing I can do (among all...) is playing netball. I've represented my secondary school before (although we only got fourth)...in form 2, but that was ancient history...

Is participation in kokum-ish clubs outside school counts?

ARGGH. It's mainly for local university entry requirement anyway. I'm aiming for overseas universities. Why bother much?



p/s: Okay before anyone gets noisy... yeah, I know I seem don't care about this kokum thing, but believe me: I'm *still* trying to get involved seriously.

At Last.

This will be short.


My mum had her viva at her university today & she did it! She passed! (lol..dunno what to call it)... But she still have to do some corrections (in 9 months) before she officially graduate September next year.

Haha.. After all this years... now... no more extra burden (Her ph.D course did affect us negatively, positively, physically & mentally... often get scolded & all that)..well... She deserved her "Doctor" title.. she spent a lot of time, money & brainwork on her thesis..

*sighs happily*


She inspires me a lot. Congrats, mum!

Friday Birthday!

Yeshh! My first post on the first day of September 2006!
firstly...
I would like thank my friends & cousins for remembering my birthday & wishing me "Happy Birthday"... (SMSes & Friendster Testimonials).. & also Casandra (whom I had not been in touch for more than 3 years) who called me just a few minutes ago to say "Happy Birthday"..

& also others that wished me after I posted this..

hontou ni.. arigatou gozaimashita..


I've always love FridayS and today is a even more special day for me. It's MY 18th BIRTHDAY!

My birthday present? This fx-991ES Casio Scientific Calculator! (Closeup)
Bought it at Popular, Centre Point yesterday for RM 63.90...

Okay. I know. I'm weird... Why do I want a calculator for my birthday anyway? (I've got plenty of them ^_^).. haha..but I have my reasons. ~ahaha~ I like its "natural textbook display" feature. It's so natural.. (& cool!)

About school...
I think I should stop talking about my classmates cos if they found out about this blog, I'm doomed.

I was so glad to know that I still have my touch in art. (^^)
Our class monitor wanted us to prepare some article/decoration/etc before the 1-week holiday to merdeka-ise our classroom. I find it bothersome at first cos I'm still lack of confidence in art after the black years of 2004/05. But last Friday I managed to gather enough courage to persuade myself to start drawing. I drew portraits of the previous 4 prime ministers of Malaysia. Oh well, I know it's not that perfect but I did it. I'm starting to feel confident once again to paint & draw once more...

haha.. It surprises me at times that I [could] have a good balance of use of my right side & the left side of the brain. (lol.. yah yah, I know what you're thinking... oh come on.. it's my birthday today - please give me space to brag...)




You Are 45% Left Brained, 55% Right Brained



The left side of your brain controls verbal ability, attention to detail, and reasoning.

Left brained people are good at communication and persuading others.

If you're left brained, you are likely good at math and logic.

Your left brain prefers dogs, reading, and quiet.



The right side of your brain is all about creativity and flexibility.

Daring and intuitive, right brained people see the world in their unique way.

If you're right brained, you likely have a talent for creative writing and art.

Your right brain prefers day dreaming, philosophy, and sports.

Are You Right or Left Brained?


Yes. That's it. I'm 55% artist & 45% mathematician.

To be honest, I'm not good at memorising things (except for things I like).. I've always heard that you can excel Maths easily as long as you memorise the formulas. But is it really true? Isn't it important to understand too? I can only recall the formulas when I encounter maths problems.. is it bad?

Then, being no good in memorising, am I making a brilliant choice by taking BIO? I never pass my tests/exams when I was in F4(only once) & F5.. & I got C5 for SPM.. *hmmm*

Your past results/successes/failures/whatever doesn't really reflect what you get & be in the future. This thought suddenly occurs me after last Wednesday. That day, I was able to solve a Maths question from the Longman book which the whole class (including teacher) can't find the answer. Then, a friend approached me & asked how did I do it & go on asking about my Add Maths (SPM) results.. She's confused about why it's hard for her although she got A for her Add Maths (SPM/ I got B)... My answer was, "It depends on the person." Different people have different ways of thinking, isn't it? I believe anyone can solve Maths Problems but before that, they have to think Math-ish first...

So maybe I'll still have a chance for my BIO lah, kan?

fin.

No Chemistry Teacher For This Year.

August is here, September is NEXT!
Unbelievable! My Maths teacher's birthday is on 31 August (oh well, he told us...) & I'm on the next day! 1st September!

No CHEM teacher
Believe it or not, we'll meet our new Chemistry teacher...Next Year!

*sigh* Well, the previous teacher did tell us that she'll be our teacher till the new teacher arrives. But I don't think she'll keep her word. She has a reputation of seldomly (I really mean it) coming into her classes. yeah. I already asked those who had been in her class before. But she's a good teach-er though.

I just can imagine what will happen next year. The teacher might be an inexperienced teacher. And he (well..I hope the teacher is a "he"). We'll be learning everything in a very HIGH speed. Hmm. We might need to go to school to on Saturdays (& Sundays?) too. And just one month before exam, we'll all end up in Bukit Padang Hospital. And we'll live happily ever after.

aiyo! Touch wood! I don't want that to happen!

Anyway, everyone is looking for a way to overcome this problem. What I'm going to do is SELF-studying. Should I take tuition classes? I don't know. I'm not that kind of person who feel comfortable with tuitionS.

But anything can happen. Maybe he'll show up [late] this year. Who knows?


Am I Monk-ish?
Haha... you can take the test yourself here. Test not available anymore.

SRK LY Primary 6 2000 Reunion
Oh well... my friends from matrics are holiday-ing right now. So someone came up with with this reunion idea. It's this Saturday. Well... I don't know if I want to go or not. I just don't feel like having a reunion right now.

Spectac[les]-ular
The late-night sleepS I had last year must have been the cause. Well... lately, I'm having trouble with my eye. Sometimes its blurry, sometimes it's not. But, well... I got myself a dark green-coloured spectacles. Hmm.. But I seldomly wear it. Certainly, it's not something I'm proud about.

Well... *where do I begin..*

There's a test next week...

Ahh... Last Monday, I did a presentation on "Jenis & Sistem Kerajaan" - ALONE! In front of everyone! Haha.. At first I was SO nervous. I don't care what I said, I would just read from the text book..or whatever (no memorising) as long as it finishes quickly.

Suprisingly, the nervous-ness disappeared as I stood in front of them. I speak about what was on my presentation slide (I made it myself!)... There was technical problems in the beginning, but when the teacher saw my presentation (on the laptop), he complimented me! He said that's the best presentation slide he ever seen...*blushes* [he's referring to the (powerpoint) presentation slide & not my way of speaking]

The opposite thing happened that day..really.

& not to forget: I was given an A+ for that. *(^O^)*

It felt really good to have your work being appreciated.

It's a good thing that I'm "well-trained" about this "using computer for presentation", thanks to SM〇〇, of course. Since in Form 4, we were loaded with projects that we need to present in front of everybody. I would *shamelessly* say that my group's was always the best among all..(LOL...my very biased opinion *no offence to the other groups*).. yea, Mel & me, we always did that "powerpoint" part. ahh... those days... hmm.. but teachers didn't praise us a lot...

No BIO classes this week...

I just realised that most school have 2 teachers for Maths T while we only have the ONE & ONLY Mr. R.
We have 8 periods for Maths T per week. 4 periods for Paper 1 & another 4 for Paper 2 (just started Topic 1 today... very late, huh?)

Oh, well.........
I'm more than grateful already to have a teacher to teach us.

You can't be too dependent to your teachers anymore in Form 6. Teachers are merely facilitators. 95% is all about yourself. Your determination, discipline, diligence, intelligence... The 5% is teachers, friends, family...

This pretty much explains most of my character. *somewhat accurate* (Got this from a friend via e-mail, so I don't where/what's the real source.)

VIRGO WOMAN
She will be similar to Leo woman in appearance. A slim woman who walks with confident and proud. She has an egg shape facial structure, high and round forehead. She likes to look straight as if she is searching. She is not a pretentious type and will always say what she thinks.

You will see Virgo woman walks fast. She will try her best to be perfect, to look perfect and to feel perfect even though there is no such perfection. She is very delicate of what and how she dress. She is bright and easily despair with obstacles. She likes smart guy who will be compatible with her, so if you are a rich dumb guy, you can forget about her right now.

She is not a very possessive or jealous person for she expect respect from her love one. She does not like a part time lover, or a temporary mate. If she finds her dream man, she will not go away. If she does not like you, she will always keep a certain distant. Act proper and appropriate is her discipline.

She does not like and can not stand bad languages, cursing words or phrase. She likes a gentleman who open the doors for her. She wants to feel protected and when a man taking care of her, she will feel like a complete woman.

She memorizes everything about other people and about herself very well. She can really keep secret, you can trust her on this. She likes a refreshing and a mild scent. She is very delicate in maintaining her beauty, so you could see she is seriously picking soap which match and most suit her skin. Do not comments her on this very picky habits, it is her happiness in working full times as a self beautifier.

She is not an innocent angle for sometimes she can be as tough as steel. Even she easily despair, she is not the type to cry over it. She is a shy type, so making speech in front of the room can make her nervous even she walks and talks confidently.

She only search for true love , not just any love. Her love is an ideal one. She likes to think no one is neater and as effective as her, which can irritate you sometimes for there is no such thing. She likes sweet talk, but she can slip and say something unpredictable and unbearable to you too. When she stops getting mad, she will totally forget what she just said and be an
angle again . If you have a date with her , you'd better be there on time.

Flowers and sweet word can calm her down. If you want to say sorry, make it brief and straight forward. Do not drag your apologetic words into a long making it up events, it could lead you to another world war. She likes her man to dress nice and clean. She is good in details especially with money. Do not make she thinks that she is a clown or funny.

In the beginning of knowing her, please try not to glance at other pretty woman so much. Early period of dating her, try not to hold her so much in public, it would not be a proper thing to do. She loves books, stage play and music and likes to criticize about them too.

Criticism woman is her icon including big and small things in life starting from your hair, your dress, and the way you talk. If you are in love with her, be as almost perfect as your can.

Trust no one. Period.



"Never trust people before you trust them." Confused?

That's what I think. Just as much as I want to trust that everyone in this world can be trusted, I can't trust them until soooommmmee..... *suitable*...... time....... Maybe this is a way I protect myself from any pain & betrayal in relationships.. 'friendship' to be precise.

When you trust too much, you get hurt seriously too. Hate it. Hate it.


# Something "stupid" happened twice to me this week. Have you ever experience a day where you feel stupid?

I have. Occasionally.

During these days, I will have "mental-blocks".. I can't do essays.. I can't do much serious thinking... arggh..

But the good thing is... *to keep it balanced*.. there's an "Intelligent Day" too... that's the greatest day - feeling intelligent.

# Today IN SCHOOL... This is the first time I met a person who brags the most in my life. Well, this doesn't occur me till I get home. I was doing some Maths problems & she approached my desk. Then bla bla bla bla & bla. After she finish bragging (Pengajian Am teacher came in), I felt so inferior-ish for no reason. Why? Why? Then only I realise she was bragging about herself! ne.. ne... What is she trying to do? Being friendly? Or trying to tell me she's better than me? A potential rival?

No. I'm not jealous!

Ah!!!! Me & my self-centred & negative mind!

# Maths class always equals to FUN. I just love the teacher, he's SO hilarious! I found out that he really was a teacher in matriculation college... for 8 years!

MUET's are somewhat boring... It's like learning english from scratch once again.. (but what he teaches is suitable for my other classmates.. )

CHEMISTRY--- *starts to worry* The teacher seldomly come in to teach... Yet CHEM has the most "thick" syllabus to finish... aiya... taihen desu (It's terrible)...

First week in school [after lessons started]

In addition to this post: from ReCom.org forum "STPM or matriks?" and "Question of Furthering Studies in STPM"

*sigh* Now, I shouldn't look at my classmates as rivals (that's what I'd done last year.. No good attitude).. because my biggest, toughest rival is MYSELF.

...

So far, only BIO, MATHS T (pure mathematics), and MUET has started...

All teachers are "acceptable". Haha.

Being in SM〇〇 bring backs memories in Primary School.. teachers doesn't expect too much from you - hence, less pressure (but they'll come, I know it) - , they teach with considerable patience - cos that's the only thing they can do -... The environment is just perfect to make me study.. (I've began "warming up" with the others...)

Knowing that we might be shy to ask teacher questions, my BIO teacher came up with the idea of making a small "whiteboard" for us to write on... we just have to raise that thing up when needed... pretty convenient, eh? ...But this could be a disadvantage too - no chance to practise speaking english -

Speaking of speaking in English, a-ah~ I still have that problem. I can't get that english words out of my mouth. Ah, bother! (I admire my MUET teacher!! His english was not that perfect [although he studied in England b4] but he speaks with confidence... really envy him!)

Our Maths teacher is a bit weird.. but I think I can live with that.. shouldn't forget that life is no fun without fun. It's not all about studying hard. Should smile and laugh at times... (which reminds me-- I have a smiling problem! I can't smile! *nya!*)

..........

& forget about Physics. I'm so bad at it. The Maths teacher pointed out that those who are good in Maths doesn't necessarily will be good in Physics (*here's an interesting thread on this matter). I'm one of them. No matter how much I like Physics [because of some childish reasons: [1] I like Mr. Ooi (my physics teacher in SM〇〇.. & FYI, not thhhaaat kind of "like"). [2] Physics is one of Alec Su's favourite subjects (he also likes Maths & Chemistry.... which I also like..)  [3] Ueda is a physicist. (Besto! I'm a BIG fan of the Trick series!)].. I just can't do it for this time being. Maybe I'll self-study it in the future (oh well, I do have one un-childish reason. I like to know how this world works. I've always think about this kind of thing when I was little.) But really, not now.


p/s: Kurosagi... finished.... already....

Cut!

Proud to be a F6 student

Posted in: ~Friday Posts | 2006 posts | Cringy Teenage Years | Old Blog | School: Form 6

Originally posted on Friday, June 23, 2006 in my old blog

After a few weeks in my new school (for F6)... I'm awaken by the fact that Matriculation is JUST a place where you can go after SPM. What I mean is.. it's not like, well, the best, prestigious (or whatever big word you describe it) place you should go to pursue your studies. It just coincidentally happened that many best SPM scorers (9:1=bumi:non-bumi) are "gathered" there, that must be why most parents think that's the best, good, popular place they can send their children to (and brag & show off about it later...*duh*).. & F6 became the place for "rejectS" & most non-bumiS, giving it a somewhat ugly reputation.

Parents should do their homework.

Matrics = 1 year only? No. Wrong. They have 2 years ones too.

I grow up with the idea (influence from my surroundings) that Matrics are better than F6 (which is not really true). Since I'm in form 1, I already set a target that I'll go to Matrics after completing F5. People said F6 is 2 years whereas Matrics is only 1 year. That's why at that time I prefer Matrics to F6. Moreover I was thinking of getting out of school quickly (because since the first day I'm in SM〇〇, I already could feel the tense, stress & tight competition in my class. I could't stand it, & wished that time will run faster so that I can stop suffering). Even when I was in F5, the thought of going to F6 never occurs me.

Then, last year, came a big turn over.

While waiting for SPM results to come out:
Because I didn't study well enough (due to some problems) last year (for SPM), I was afraid that my bad SPM results will affect my admission to matrics (at that time-lah) or any other places (excluding f6) to pursue my ambition (doctor or any other profession in the medical field). So I surfed the internet, looking for info on "where can I go after SPM" (things like that...).. & discovered that STPM is the most suitable way for me. It is also recognised by most universities in the world (UNLIKE MATRICS). Referring to this, (I copied it here):
Local public universities
STPM (Form 6), local matriculation, recognised diplomas from government polytechnics and public universities and university colleges.

Overseas universities
UK, Australia and New Zealand: A Levels, STPM , Australian and Canadian pre-u and matriculation, selected foundation and diploma programmes
US: American Degree Program

Local private universities/colleges
STPM , local matriculation, Australian and Canadian pre-u and matriculation, relevant foundation and diploma programmes

Foreign university branch campuses
STPM , local matriculation, Australian and Canadian pre-u and matriculation, selected foundation and diploma programmes.


It would be easier to go to overseas universities (of course with good results) with STPM certificiate. Of course. You can go to local universities too. (Foreign university branch campuses -- limited options ne?)

& puh-lease...FYI, Australian and Canadian pre-u and matriculation is NOT equal to local matriculation. I remember going to Hyatt Hotel few months ago (for some *what do you call it? short seminar to intoduce their uni?* from Monash University).. There's this friend of my mum's daughter who "graduated" from matrics, 'showing off', saying that I shouldn't go to f6, "It's hard. It's better in matrics. They use this semester system...bla bla bla".. & while she's talking all that craps I can see that "stupid & naive" label on her head. Her father included.. Anyway. The ppl from Monash Uni were stating the qualifications to enter the uni.. & WALA~! In his presentation slide -- No mention of matriculation (only South Australian matriculation). Local matriculation that is. STPM is there but no local matrics. So those ppl with the "S & N" labels on their heads asked.. well, of cos I knew that local matrics is *somewhat recognised* cos that uni is in Malaysia, (can't you tell?) so it not's really a problem for local matics graduates to enter there... but the pleasure of looking at that "undeclared embarrassment" was REALLY GREAT. They think local matrics is SO that great, that they expect that everyone in this world should know about it.

Anyway, back to my school stories... Some teachers said we are lucky to be in form 6.
(I know it sounds like they were just trying to cheer up those that didn't get any offers to uni & matrics)
My Maths T(Pure Mathematics) teacher, Mr. R (he said he was a teacher in matrics b4.. but I'm not really sure) said the maths for STPM are 10x harder than matric's maths. If you get A for matric's maths, it's a D in STPM's Maths T. Also he said that although in matriks you can get [C?]GPA 4.0 easier, they will FACE difficulties later when they enter university.

"So be proud that you are in Form 6."



p/s: Of course, I may sound biased cos I want to believe what I believe. But this really happens. & I'm glad I chose this path.

~ Know What You Want ~

Posted in: ~Monday Posts | 2006 posts | Cringy Teenage Years | Old Blog | School: Form 6

Originally posted on Monday, June 19, 2006 in my old blog

Just sth I wrote last week in my green notebook.

* - * - * - * - * - * - * - *
~ Know what you want ~

That's what our *temporary* class teacher said, Mr. K. Ng. (going to call him Sir K)

I'm right all along! So typical of All Saints teachers.

Hehe... but, so far, I like my teachers. The Pengajian Am (=General Studies?) teacher has a somewhat good sense of humour. Mr K seems easy to talk with.
The first minute I see the teacher, talking in front of the class ~ I know instantly what kind of teacher he/she is. I tell you: Most of them are the 'swindlers' type. What you see outside is not what's inside.
I *do* judge books by its cover.
If I see "evil faces", I'll assume he's bad.
If I see "good faces", I'll assume he's okay.

I believe in "first impression".

But, well, of course I don't "assume" they are like that the rest of my life. People change.The goodie ppl might turn out bad after all. The baddie ppl... ah, you know-lah. I've seen a lot.That What-I-Think-About-Them will change.

So, my impression on ppl around me changes accordingly.

Oh yeah. Mr K asked us: "Why do you want [to do] F6?"

My answer for that is the same with the reason(s) why I need f6 (science stream).

I didn't do well for my SPM.
[Yet I know I can. Because of some stupid "little problems"... I didn't (not can't)]
I've wasted my talents & time for these "little problems" (believe me, you don't wanna know)
I want to "reclaim" what I should get.
I have to show 'them' that they are deadly wrong about me.


# I need f6 b'cos I believe I will not do well in matriks. Being in matriks will just bring back memories in f4/f5... also: 2 many tomodachiS there.... I can't study that way.

I know f6 is hard. But I truly believe this is the best place for me to "fly to my destination".

Don't think you know what's best for me. You are not me. You don't think like I do. You don't know me.

If you don't support my decision. Fine.
But, please at least respect what I've decided.

*fin*

* - * - * - * - * - * - * - *

Why do I eagerly want to score well in STPM? Didn't I despise those "straight-As" students? Why am I *somewhat* becoming (or want to) into one? Isn't it against what I said?

[Think of Kurosagi. Why does Kurosaki became a Kurosagi (black swindler)? He hates sagishiS(swindlers) esp ShirosagiS! ]

I guess the only answer I have would be: I want to show them a failure like me can "become into one".

Pathetically, I like to "see" them realise that they are wrong about me. Proving that they are wrong is the best part.

Maybe this also have sth to do with "The Curse of Science 1 class"...

nothing to do...

Obviously, our lessons haven't started yet.

It's kind of *hard*... I'm friend-less in my new school. But that's not the main problem. I can live alone. Well, I'm not used to the school yet.. There's many things I don't know & not sure... Asking will often lead to more questions.. (& I don't feel like talking to someone who seems doesn't want to talk with me).. If only there's someone I know from Lok Yuk there...(I know there are those who got SMKKL from Lok Yuk..)..

The situation is just like f4/f5... minus I don't *hate* everyone around me (yet) cos I don't know them... (But I don't plan to hate anyone this time.. I had enough in f4/f5. It would just make my life miserable...)

I saw our class's biology teacher today, though. (A male biology teacher!)
He said some of us *would have* to move to Art stream cos it would be a waste of time for those who gets C5,C6,D7 for their science subjects (ehem... where did I hear that b4? Ah! All Saints! So maybe this is that *experienced* teacher from All Saints!).. OK maybe C5 ones can still "hidup" (live).. but lower than that, "Please re-think!"..

ME: Ah. No, thank you.

I really need this "science stream." Even if I change my ambition (doctor), I still want it.

Are those non-straight-A's students not worth living in this world? Just because they (including me) didn't get the perfect A score, they are treated like someone who is guilty for something.. I really don't understand why.

But, what I can say now about this is: Those straight-A's students are created to fill the spaces available in this "common world". Non-straight-A's students don't have place in "common world". They create their own "common world" which will be filled (again) by those straight-A's students in the future. It's a cycle. So who's better?


I also got straight A's for my PMR, so you say "Look who's talking?" huh?

Most straight-A's (or straight-A-ish) students "can't think". They can't apply what they learn to real life. And their EQ stinks. (I don't like the sound of the 'other word' that you think is more suitable)

My definition of straight-A's students? Don't ask. You do the thinking.
oh ya. If you can't think that means you "can't think".


p/s: *spams* I like Physics but I had a bad history on Physics in f4/f5. Ironically, I hate my BIO & CHEM senseiS.. yet I got C5 for their subjects. I love Teacher Ooi as my Physics teacher. But, well... maybe I don't have chemistry with Physics... I have to forget about it...
