Turning Seventeen...

Current music: LIA - Filiation (Original Mix)
Current condition: Tired...but I'm stayin' awake till the clock ticks twelve...
Current mood: ...It's all mixed up...

I know...I've finally decided to change my blog layout...
Sure, many others use this layout, but I suppose simplicity is the way to go, eh?
At least it's not as blue as before...
Anyway...

As I'm typing this, I'm thinking to myself...

OH MY GOODNESS! I'm going to be a year older in fifteen minutes!!!

But what can I do? I can't change time...it never comes back.
I just have to go with it and live with it.

Thinking back, sweet sixteen wasn't all that sweet for me...
...Sure, there were some golden moments, but of course, like everybody, there are also some bitter moments...

I wonder what sweet seventeen has in store for me...?

Dear sixteen, I enjoyed your year...
Now I shall welcome seventeen...so we can start another fresh year...
But sixteen, you will never be forgotten (neither will any other year). The memories of you will always be treasured and cherished in my soul.

There is about ten minutes left...
I should spend my remaining "sixteen" time by myself...so I'm gonna end this post here...

Love you, sixteen. Forever and always.

Seventeen, you are welcomed with open hands.

Prefects' Camp 2009

Current music: Lia - Filiation (Original Mix)
Current condition: Wah...I haven't been in such bad shape since quite a while...
Current mood: Still alright...tired, but alright...

Finally, it's over!!
Prefects' Camp was a blast when we included so many new activities, despite the sudden change in schedule, and of course, who could forget our new weapon - flour?

After holding exhaustion and pain back for three days and two nights, sleeping it back is really gonna be a task...but it is definitely worth it.

I guess it's hard for me to make this post longer than it is, but I guess I'll make a more complete one if I feel like it later...

Anyway, we hoped that every prefect enjoyed the camp, despite certain injuries they may have gotten...
And we really really hope that the teachers would be more considerate =.= , not to put any important tests the day right after camp...

Oh well, Later!

Countdown: 2 more days?! Aaaahhh....!

Earth Hour 2009

Current condition: Tired...it's a Tuesday, so what to expect?
Current mood: Normal

I was watching Discovery Channel, and then they had this very interesting commercial about Earth Hour 2009.
Hey, I've watched this long time ago...since the hoildays...I just felt like blogging about it now.

Anyway, it's the hour when about 80 countries all over the worlds switch off their lights from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m., 28th March 2009.

Well, during that time the prefects will be in Prefects' Camp, so probably we'll have a nice prayer about saving Earth or something? Wakaka xP

Hmm...wouldn't sound too bad if you ask me...I mean, it IS about time we all at least contribute to the environment.
I mean, just imagine it. Just switching off your lights for one hour, multiplied by the number of people willing to do so, multiplied again by the number of countries involved...
That much energy is a lot!

And it's definitely meant to unite the world.

Therefore, plan on, folks!
Plan a romantic/social dinner with candle lights or something...


As a side thing (changing the topic)
Here are snippets from conversations from today at school xD:

Belinda: Why are you so quiet these two days?
Cyn: Don't know...busy.
Belinda: Usually you would bully me or something...
Cyn: Because now you're low priority, so I have other things to layan.
Belinda: *pretends* So baaaddd...
Cyn: It's not bad. It's being direct. x)
**************************************************
Tung: One more week and it's someone's birthday...
Cyn: Har? Whose oh? Whose oh?
Tung: Ahah...pretend pretend tak tahu there...
Cyn: Hmm? Who ah?
Tung: Yealor...who ah? I don't know...


Guess that's it...later!!!
Countdown: 7 days...

We All Need Love

Current condition: Normal
Current mood: ...

Unbelievable...(for me anyway), another post the day after one.

Anyway...I just felt like blogging about it, so here...

Today, I went to the hospital.
Not because I'm sick or anything <_<...i>

I know I can't expect patients to look really super duper well, but then...

I've never seen her in such condition before...
I remember ever so vividly when she used to yell at me and all that stuff...
But now...

We may not be the best and closest of the closest, but still...seeing a precious relative like this...

As I look around the somewhat gloomy area, some looked slightly more decent...some not so.

Then I thought to myself...

"If this is how Sandakan is like, then what about Gaza?"

And what hurts more is that some of the patients were all alone...barely anybody visiting them, even though it was visiting hours (believe me, I've been observing for the whole time until visiting hours ended)

Honestly, standing and looking around a place like that for three ++ full hours wasn't exactly the best experience, but I can only try to imagine how it's like lying on the hospital bed for days...and the people you meet start talking about your diseases and the effects it has on your body...

Come on...where did all the "You'll be okay...Don't worry" s go???

I have never experienced being admitted into the hospital before, but it doesn't take something like that for us to know that these patients need love, care and support...!

When visiting time was almost over, we decided to leave. I waved to my relative, and a mother taking care of the child with whom I've became fast friends with.
I looked at the other patients, and they looked back at me.
Somehow, I decided to wave at them, and surprisingly, a smile lit up on their faces and they waved back.

Man...the sight was so surprising, it was almost painful...
I do hope for them to get better and to get all the love they deserve...

Later...

March Holidays...

Current condition: A bit sick due to the weather, but still alright I suppose

Current mood: Normal

Wow...it's finally Friday...near the end of the much-needed holidays.

And it's been almost two weeks since I've last updated, so here ya go.

So what have I done during the holidays?

I've struggled with my homework, asking my pals here and there...

I've sat in front of the PlayStation (yes, the first and the lousiest one---and it's not even mine), playing battle and strategy games (in other words, games that girls don't normally play <_<)

I've watched the television...(Entertainment shows, Discovery Channel, Oprah Show...yeah you get the idea)

but most importantly...

I actually took the time to reflect on myself.

Don't start rolling your eyes now, coz you have no idea how many people actually don't take the time to do it.

Frankly, I can tell you that the first three months of the year was a mixture of haven and crap.

But then again, I ain't gonna be sixteen forever. Heck, I only have one week ++ before another digit is added to my age...

The thing is, you definitely can't expect everyday to be a bed of roses.

Sure, there are tough times and all, but why let them stop you from going with the flow?

Correction: Not going with the flow, it's create the flow.

With the recent events (the scandals happening and all that stuff...I'm sure you know what I'm talking about by now)...I don't have any rights to judge whoever that is, therefore I won't comment on that, but just let me say this, especially to you guys who keep telling me that you're going crazy, this, that, this, that...:

You know you're going the wrong way.

Turn back!

Come on! Nobody is stupid enough not to notice anything wrong.

The real question isn't "Am I doing the right thing?"

It's actually "Am I doing anything at all?"

Knowing that you're going the wrong way isn't doing anything.

Taking the initiative to change yourself is something.

If you can't tell the difference between these two, then you need to sit down and think about it.

Also, I'm not only referring to "those" cases. Many people, (almost all, in fact) have this kind of problem.

Alright, enough with that. I'm not a psychologist or anything, but I'm merely stating what I believe is true.

Back to school in three days, mate!

Later~!

So Many Things, So Little Time

Current music: Alice DeeJay - Who Needs Guitars Anyway
Current condition: ----
Current mood: ----

As the title of this post suggests, so many things, so little time...!
I'm just giving a short post here, cuz life's been busy, busy, busy!

A "simplified" version of whatever happened recently...

1) Pelantikan Pengawas (late February) Man, I won't forget how I had to stand for I-don't-know-how-long while the rain dripped on my face, waiting for the speech to finish =.=

2) Website tutorial (late February) It was okay...(considering Jaja wasn't able to attend...) I guess it went smoothly...

3) Language Week (early March) It was a lot of preparation...and $%^& whoever said the backdrop didn't look nice. Let me see you do better in two hours!

4) Test...tests...TESTS!!!!!
HOLY CRAP!? I GOT A C IN CHEMISTRY!?!?!? =.=

5) PROJECTS PROJECTS PROJECTS!!!!
ICT, SENI, MORAL, SIVIK, WALALALALALALA


Okay, that just about sums it up...
Later...
