When It Takes Over
It's already April and my birthday is approaching. Lately, I've been so busy with competitions that I forget to spend a little time for myself. Didn't even have the time to think. Practice over. Eat. Sleep. Wake up and repeat the routine all over again. I was so busy that even the weekends I was at school or somewhere. All of that made me realize of how a robot I can be all in the name of certificates. It was worth it though. Through all these, I made new friends, built relationships and put myself in situations that I never knew I could handle. It tested my capability and my determination to get what I want. I am glad that my hard work paid off. Now, I finally get to be in class like an ordinary student. Oh, it is heaven!
With great power comes great responsibility. That is indeed true. I have many commitments in school. When someone calls me, it is because I have to finish up something or arrange a meeting or what so ever not. I just love the feeling when I look at my handphone and there is no missed calls or no messages. It feels as if I have nothing else left to do. But of course, that is totally BS. There is always something I need to complete and right now, I really need to study. Can you imagine ? Three weeks of missing class?
My little moments of pleasure now are the moments when I get the chance to read a novel or just listen to music and do absolutely nothing. Even if just for a moment. A moment of total peace.
As I've said, my birthday is coming soon. It's on 6th June, just so you know. Last year, I went to Langkawi with Calister and papa. Drank lots of kampai! Saw a shirtless guy jogging on the street :D Yes, I'm getting older. HaHa. Hopefully, I'll be able to go out of the country for at least 1 week and celebrate my birthday there! I've been waiting to go to 'watermelon' for so long!!! It would definitely be a dream come true.
Till next time,
Katherine :)

School in Less Than A Week
This is me. Blogging. Just finished changing the sofa covers. Took A LOT of effort. Changed the curtains. Found an egg hive :( EWW. So you must be wondering, why in the world would I do everything by myself. The answer is simple. Because I don't have a maid like all you rich people. Haha. =P
I have debate practice on Wednesday. Haven't been debating for so long !!! Still have a lot to learn but it would an interesting experience! Have to search and write so much time. I have a little grey file for all my debating stuff :) I like being organized and neat. It's much better and obviously, much easier. Honestly, I don't understand people who can actually STAND being all unorganized and messy. How do they live their life ??
If one day, they can't search something they one due to their messiness. And it is something really, really important. I would laugh at them and tell them, PADAN MUKA!! Oh. My. Gosh. I am so mean but well, it's the truth. Well, hopefully they'll learn their lesson. I hate working with people who are messy so if you are reading, start learning how to actually be neat! Read a book or something if you really don't know. And people who actually pride themselves on their untidiness are STUPID!
So that was a little insight of my brain. HAHA.
My PMR results came out last Thursday. I expected to get like 5 A's but amazingly, I got 7 A's !! That is good, I guess. Only A's :) Science was quite hard because I didn't study but amazingly, I got A :) Most probably, the Ministry of Education lowered the percentage like really, really low. Maybe 70 is already A or lower. The reason because the subject is taught in English. It is very easy to get A for subjects like English, Mathematics and Science. That is the reason why a lot of my friends who are 'not that good' in English got A. Sorry if I sound mean but that is the fact.
A lot of my friends that got straight A's actually cried when they received their results. I guess they really worked hard to obtain it. When I received mine, I felt nothing. As if it was... well, nothing. I should have been crying or extremely happy but I wasn't. I was just glad. I was happy too because I've been praying to God to get straight A's and finally I did. The thing about me is no matter how much or how hard I study or do something, I'm never satisfied. It's as if that I didn't so enough hence I felt like I didn't deserve to get 7 A's. But I guess, in some ways. That's a good thing because then, I'll always try my hardest and because, I feel it is never enough. I'll never stop trying until finally, I get what I want. The best thing about getting the results after working really hard isn't the A's itself but feeling of satisfaction. That you can actually work and make something work in the end. That you do actually have a worth and not useless for nothing. I guess it's better to work hard and get the results rather than do nothing but get the results as well.
Well, as all of you know. School is starting next week. In like 6 more days.... so I'll be really, really busy! Preparing for school and of course, cleaning the house. I need to buy a new school back. Sew my badges. Iron my uniforms. Buy my school books. Clean up my desk. Arrange my new Form 4 reference books and everything in between. In a nutshell, I'm actually quite excited to get back to school. Get to know who are my new teachers. Get to learn new subjects. Get to experience school itself as a Form 4 student. I guess the best part of it is that I would actually get to find out how far and how much would I actually work myself in order to get succeed. I would get to learn my real capabilities and I'm sure it would be a very interesting experience.
Cleaning the house, going to school everyday, studying, debating, church, interact responsibilities, mandarin classes... It will definitely be a very busy year but that is exactly the reason why I am so excited about it all. I also made a vow to myself to read a novel/magazine before I go to sleep everyday. Iron my 5 uniforms on Sundays so I would not need to iron my uniform every morning and waste electric and money. Read novels when I have my free time. At least blog once a month. To study at least 3 hours a day excluding school work. Start on my school assignments as soon as it is given. Finish my school work in time and ASAP. To not delay any work or assignments for if I do that, it will finally bite me back in my ass and I do not like being bitten at my bottom. It would hurt since I do not have enough flesh there. But I guess for all you other pillow-butted people, it wouldn't matter. HAHA. And of course, to read the Bible and Daily Bread everyday. It is of utmost important. My relationship between me and God must never be neglected. But of course, having fun while doing everything!!
2011. :D It will be an exciting year and I will have fun doing everything cause I choose to.
Your life is how you want it to be. Your life is AWESOME because you say it is.
Perceptions. Is. Everything. Enjoy Life while u still have it. U know you are going to die soon. So enjoy life while you are still alive.
It's easy. Just say sorry and everything will be okay. :D

Zombies In My Dream (Part 1)

Once, I slept at 8.30 am and had to wake up at 9.30 in order to get ready for church.
ONE hour of sleep. What was I doing???
Watching the Last Song(novel by Nicholas Sparks)
Actually, wasn't really watching the show. Just looking at the handsomely gorgeous Liam Hemsworth and eating baked-oven chickens with mustard and BBQ sauce and cheese.
I was hungry!
Anyway, waking that late and sleeping that early really does stuff to your brain.
I know now I'm like writing shit but I don't care. People like to read shit anyways that's why you are reading my post right now.
Straight to the point. I had a really, really weird dream.
Wanted dreams with HOT guys instead I got zombies!!!! I mean like wth???
You're thinking a really hot guy is coming your way until 'he' gets nearer, you find out he's actually some flesh-eating monster with blood all around his face.
Chapter 1: The Arrival
So my church have reached the camp site. Its really nice but really old. And there's like one big place as the main hall. So we have our lunch. The youths were so excited as ALL of us were going to get one big, big room just for ourselves. One side for guys and one side for girls.
And the room was AWESOME. Really modern and stuff. The youth was big, like 40 plus???
Chapter 2: An Invitation
Yap(Kar Kay) and I were talking shit to each other, as usual. Until one of the workers of the hotel came and said that both of us were going to get a free Special Royal Deluxe Room. And he asked if we would like it. We were like 'obviously we were going to take it' so we did. And guess where it was. Just downstairs of the youth room. When you alight the stairs, you would see a really big door glass with two girls guarding it. It was the Special Royal Deluxe Room. And we entered. Ignoring the weird fact about the two girls outside. I mean like they didn't even spoke as if they were dolls or something.
Chapter 3: Special Royal Deluxe Room
When we entered, the first thing that caught our mind that the room was really big just for two people. It had two red-white queen beds that were far apart as if there were gates to block me and Yap from each other if both of us were at our beds. But the surprise didn't stop there. When we went even deeper into the room we saw a really, really old haystack or something. It was like a barn without the animals. It was extremely old and the 'barn' was narrow with two beds. At its sides, there were big holes enough to fit like 7 people in it. And you guessed right, it was built of wood. So we finally decided to sleep at the 'barn'. It would be a new experience and we knew it would be fun.
Chapter 4: Strangers Among Us
Finally, it was dinner time and all of us gathered at the dinner place. But I began to notice strangers among the church people and so I thought maybe they were just guests of this hotel. As I was eating with the other youths, I slowly began to realize that these strangers were not talking to other people and they were faint-like, almost invisible. But that is just so weird. So I stood up and started to walk to the blond-hair girl. But she did not respond. She just stare right at me, wait....through me. As if I wasn't even in front of her. Immediately, I knew that she wasn't a person but a spirit, somehow, someway bounded on earth or more precisely at this particular hotel.
I knew I had to tell Yap about the strangers but she didn't believe me. She couldn't even see them. But I didn't give up. I kept telling about these strangers I saw among us. She didn't believe me at first, but I don't know what happened but she suddenly had belief in her eyes. Then, I went to that stranger again with Yap this time. I thought Yap would not be able to see the stranger but I was wrong.
Me: How is she able to see you? Is that even possible? I thought I was the only one would could see you?
Stranger: It is her. It is like a gift. The moment she started to believe that spirits truly do exist, it triggered something in her brain and from then on, she could see me.
Me: She can see you just be believing?
Stranger: It is a strong weapon.
From then on, I started to see even more spirits. I tried to talk to them but they would never respond except for the blond-haired girl I met the other night. But eventhough they would not talk to me, I could sense they were trying to convey a certain message to me. One word popped into my brain. Danger.
Chapter 5: Sweet Dreams
After we had our dinner and service that night, we went back to our special room but was surprised when we saw 3 other people in our room. In the barn. In the big hole. These 3 people were our seniors at school. But why were they here?
Me: Why are all of you here?
Senior Girl: Well, we came to this hotel trying to find a room.
Me: Okay. But how did you even know this place. How did you come into our room?
Senior: We saw this hotel online at your facebook page and the room wasn't locked.
Me: Okay. But like can you get out now?
Senior: What? You're asking us to get out?
2nd Senior: We can't.
Kar Kay: What do you mean you can't?
2nd Senior: We just can't(totally serious face on). The room is nice anyway. Haha.
Me: Whatever. More the merrier I guess.
3rd Senior: You have to get of here. You have to get out of here.
Me(tomato face): What the hell do you guys want? We let you stay here and now you want us to get the bloody hell out of here? It's our room just like FYI.
1st Senior: She's not talking to you.
2nd Senior: Don't worry. She's always like that. Trying to act scary and stuff. Just go to sleep girls.
So we slept. But suddenly in the middle of the night I woke up. I started to see things. Things that previously were not in this room.
Little boys, little gates. Shutting down on your face.
Bloody red, Bloody white. Walking sticks eating you up.
Grey and black. Black and blue. Beware, because they're coming to you!
I wanted to open my eyes but I couldn't and yet I could see these things and hear them. It finally banged my head and I realized, I was dreaming. All of these were real. When I looked at the direction of the two beds. I saw two little boys. Very short. Very white and pale. They were wearing red dresses. Bloody red. They were closing the gates. There were two gates. Trapping us in the barn. I was terrified. I didn't want to open my eyes still because I knew if I did I would see them right in front of my eyes and I wouldn't be able to get out. I had to find a way.
P.S: There are two parts of the story. The second one will be posted later. :)

Lip Balms and Stupid Boys
How shall I start?
Crisis!!! I lost my lip balm. Not 1 but 2. Two people! Two!!! My favourites and my only ones. What have i done to deserve such punishment? I feel so gedix well maybe, I am. With a big two ha-s!
Anyway, I'm having my exams now. Just total crap. Bullshit. Cow dang. Dog's poop. Cat's peep. Anything that you can imagine. Seriously. I've just sat for my BM and Science Paper 1 today. BM paper 1 was tough with all the usual crappy stuff but this time, extra shit! Science paper 1 was too easy. It was like taking a stupid test. All we had to do was like to find the odd one out of all the options? I so regretted studying HARD for it!!! And they gave us pee. Yellow pee. Come on, guys.... Honestly, can't you make it like a normal test? One too hard, one too easy. ape hal ni??? mslah dunia btol... huh!!!
I can't wait for the exams to be ovverrrrr!!! It's my b'day! It's my b'day! On 6th June, Sunday. Last day of exams is 4th June, Friday. I am going to Langkawi. So fricking excited, people! Hopefully, I'll get to see many hot guys there. haha. Calister would be going there as well. Party! Party! The price is quite reasonable bout 1.5? Okay, eh? I'll go there and get high,drunk. Dance the whole. If you're lucky, I'll start to strip. yeah, rite... as if that's going to happen...dream on, boys! Of course, of course. Now, we can't forget the food, can we? Oh my gosh. I'll eat tons and tons of shrimps. sedapnye...
Boys! Smart boys! Hot boys! Stupid boys! Crazy boys! Omg. I really like a really, really stupid and frickin really hot(and cute) boy downstairs. =) I call him H for Hottie. Haha. If you know me well, you'll know what it also holds,haha. Gosh! Gosh! Gosh! I'm so totally into him. Fuck him, you know why? Because I can't stop thinking about him!!! I mean, he has been like 'chasing' me for 2 months?
Honestly, the first time I saw him...I didn't thought he was hot or anything. It was as if he didn't exist. BUT when he started talking to me, i was omg-ed. hot, nice, cute, sweet(i guess). What else do you want?!
I'm in a confused state right now. He asked 'cpl' before but I didn't exactly reject or accept. So scandal? He calls me using 'cute names' at times. Does it mean anything. Whenever he sees me, he calls my name. Even his friends calls his name and stuff when they see me, as if we're already an item. My friend's balax thinks that I'm already with him when I'm not but he doesn't believe me. What does this actually means? Kite ni scandal, couple or juz fooling with each other. I guess its everything in between.
I hate you H! Just be honest with me. You like me or you don't like me? If you really like me, just say lah. What is so hard? Very stressful, you know. Thinking about this kind of stuff. Omg-ed. I can't stop thinking about him.
What do you think?

Gone, Taken by Death ...
I couldn't believe when I heard the news from my friend, Zulfahmi. It was a Monday morning, the teacher announced that the Muslims were going to have bacaan yasin(i hope i spelled it right) and we, non-Muslims were supposed to go to the dewan. Dewan Anggerik.
Levi's, big bold specs. First time trying. Scared. haha. Everyone was usha-ing(looking) like hell! As if I was some kind of alien. But hey, many complimented me. Some said it didn't suit me. Do I look like I care? It's style, baby. And since when wearing what you like is wrong?
Then, I entered class. That was when I heard the news. My friend passed away on a Sunday, 5.30 pm. I honestly thought he was joking. How could it be? It wasn't possible!!! I knew he was in the hospital but I thought was going to be okay. Or so I thought. How wrong was I.....
Unfair. That's the perfect word. Why? Did God had to take him? Did death envy his life so much to take him away? Didn't He thought about his friends and family?
Apis. That's what we call him. Cute and chubby. Always smiling. A little shy. He liked me since last year but I only thought of him as a friend. We msg each other quite often. He never gave up on me. I promised him that I would go out with him to SP this month but the day never came, death took him away.
I dedicate this song to him.
I regret not spending enough time with him. I regret those times when I made him sad or angry. I regret not telling him that he means so much to me. I regret. I regret. Well, I guess now he's just a memory.
I wish, you were still here,
I wish that I knew you had little time,
So I would cherish every moment we had.
I thought everything was going to be okay,
I didn't know you were going away,
I hope you had achieved everything you ever wanted,
In those 18 years you've lived.
Don't you worry,
We'll always remember you,
You'll live on in our memories and lives.
In the future,
When my children feels sad or down,
I'll just tell them,
About the little boy who fell, got up and smile.
Sajak ini ditujukan khas kepada Apis,
Seorang insan yang selalu hapi. =)
1992-2010
Without you, we wouldn't be who we are now.
Thank you for being our friend.

2010. Me. You.
I know, I know. It's been a century. Sorry, I am.
Anyway, its 2010! Goodness, I'm already fifteen. PMR candidate. O-mg.
That is why this song is me.
I've cut my hair short. Luvin it.
A lot of things have been happening. Both good and bad.
Some I wish I could turn back.
If you know me, you may have realized I've change.
I know I have. 2009 and 2010 me = very different
But if you're close to me, you'll know that deep down I'm still the same.
The thing I regret the most by my changes is that I have hurt some of my friends.
Thinking that I don't give a damn but I do care.
2009 was quite a bad year for a lot of people.
Micheal Jackson left the world. Heaven or Hell? idk.
The drummer for A7X 'the rev' passed away.
My friend's mom died. My mom's friend's daughter went to heaven.
So many people went away. I guess we just got to love and appreciate them while they're here, yeah?
Count your blessings, dear child of God.
I have friends. I have everything I want.
Sometimes, I get a lil' taste of happiness.
I just wish that there'll be a day when I can forget everything.
Be with people who I truly cherish. Close to my heart.
Laugh, laugh, laugh! All the way.
Shall. Stop.
Well, this year is 2010. You might realize the new font =)
Since I've missed many posts, I shall go back in time for my future posts.

Interact Conference !!!
Awesomeness.....
Hey, guyz! Just came back from the Interact Conference District 3300 at Inti UC, Nilai. From 10th-13th December. There were like 700 students from over 100 schools from all over Malaysia except Sabah and Sarawak. 3 foreign exchange students were there too. Luca from Germany, Thibaut from France and Toto from Taiwan.
We really got to know a lot of other people. Most were surprised when I told them I'm only Form 2 since most Interact Clubs only allow students from Form 3-5. Not only that, there was this 18 year old guy name Joel who was like really semangat about 1 Malaysia and stuff. We call him The Merdeka Boy.
- will update and have sum pics later-

Take Me Home?
Wait! This post is not only going to be about my novel. There's other boring stuff too. If you don't mind suffering with me...go on reading. ... Here am I in the middle of the morning, more accurately 1.37 am writing on this lovely blog of mine. Tomorrow, I have to pass up my 'folio' for Pendidiikan Sivik called Projek Khidmat Masyarakat. It isn't that hard but when you work in a group...things happen... I really have no idea what is the objective of this project. Most of us, well everyone just Gebang and stuffz. We, students don't actually take this stuff seriously. Go out for an outing! Visit homes! That will put some stuff into our brain?...rather than writing mostly crap on papers.... everyone can do that...???
Talking about my Sivik Folio, we are also assigned to do another folio which is Geografi. The Folio 'Syndrome' never ends.... And you know what? For a spelling mistake, you can say GoodBye to one mark. Isn't that ridiculous ?! Gosh! Whatever I type here wouldn't make a difference, would it? Too bad... The system is already like that.. nak buat macam mana, kan?
The exams are coming ++ two folios! And 30 workbooks and school work!!! Gosh!!! I want to jump out of my head!!! Is that possible? Maths....BM...SEJARAH!!!
But then... behind each cloud is a silver lining. The Puasa Season is going to end. That just means one thing, people! Hari Raya!!! Food, duit raya and more food! And two weeks of holidays!!! Isn't that just simply fabulous??? More time to read my favourite novels and writing my own.... and also do more work and study more.... HUHU
Well, better go now and do more WORK!!!!
Luv You and you,darling gummy bear*you'll see this word in my novel*
Good Bye and Next Time!!!
P.S. I Love Penguin

My Trip to the KLCC Book Festa !
I woke up at 7 am.
My father was out. He told me we would go about 11 plus since the traffic now was still busy.
So, alright. More time for me to sleep and dream....
I read the Running for Her Life (Sweet Valley University) Thriller Edition by Francine Pascal for about 1 hour and 20 minutes.

When I woke up, it was about 11 plus, daddy came back. I ate my pan mee and later, went to bath. After we got out of the house bout 12.45 pm, we fetched my friend, KK and sent my brother to work.
The journey to Kl took about 35 minutes. Then, we stopped at one signboard. One saying JALAN WISMA PUTRA and the other BANDAR RAYA. We took bandar raya...and soon realized we took the wrong one. My father drove....pass through the SMART tunnel and took Jalan Tun Razak.
Finally, we went down to the Suria KLCC car park. After some walking, we finally reached The KLCC Book Fest! It was big but not that big. A lot of people were there. Some of them wearing mask to protect themselves from the H1n1 virus. The entrace fee foor adults were rm2 and for students was free! Yippi. Penjimatan= RM 4.
We entered about 3 pm and came out around 5 pm. I bought 14 books cossting around rm 350! (which is super cheap). There were discounts and rebates everywhere! ...my heaven... books-spree.... haha...
Anyway, for my next post it will be about the current books I have. And later on, it will be a post about the books I just bought!
Ok,

War and Death?
| | |
| Body: | The exams are coming AGAIN way too soon. I haven't started studying! Yet I waste my time reading novels. Oh, and yeah. I've just started reading The Reader's Digest now when it have been rotting in the cupboard for years. I'm writing this post is because I feel like I need and want to. I've just finished reading The Reader's Digest ..(book section)...for 2 hours and 30 minutes. Yes, I admit. I'm a book lover. A person who loves great writing and literature. Well, I've been reading a book entitled ' We Shall Not Sleep' by Anne Perry which gives a certain picture about World War One ....one of the greatest wars in History FYI. To find more info about it, pls visit: www. It is really fascinating and scary at the same time. The ugly truth about war. Yet, I admire the soldiers who have fought for their country. Boys were forced to be soldiers (13-18 of age) at such a young age all in the name of country. Willing to fight for what they love most. Here: A poem (its long...so pls take ur time readin...) 1915: The Trenches by: Conrad Aiken (1889-1973) I All night long, it has seemed for many years, We have heard the terrible sound of guns, All night long we have lain and watched the calm stars. We cannot sleep, though we are tired, The sound of guns is in our ears, We are growing old and grey, We have forgotten many simple things. Is this you? Is this I? Will the word come to charge today?... All night long, all night long, We listen and cannot close our eyes, We see the ring of violet flashes Endlessly darting against the skies, We feel the firm earth shake beneath us, And all the world we have walked upon Crumbles to nothing, crumbles to chaos, Crumbles to incoherent dust; Till it seems we can never walk again, That it is foolish to have feet, foolish to be men, Foolish to think, foolish to have such brains, And useless to remember The world we came from, The world we never shall see again ... All night long we lie this way, We cannot talk, I look to see what you are thinking, And you, and you,-- We are all thinking, 'Will it come to-day?' Get your bayonets ready, then-- See that they are sharp and bright, See that they h ave thirsty edges, Remember that we are savage men, Motherless men who have no past ... Nothing of beauty to call to mind, No tenderness to stay our hands ... ... We are tired, we have thought all this before, We have seen it all and thought it all, Our thumbs are calloused with feeling the bayonet's edge, We have known it all and felt it all Till we can know no more. II All night long we lie Stupidly watching the smoke puff over the sky, Stupidly watching the interminable stars Come out again, peaceful and cold and high, Swim into the smoke again, or melt in a flare of red ... All night long, all night long, Hearing the terrible battle of guns, We think we shall soon be dead, We sleep for a second, and wake again, We dream we are filling pans and baking bread, Or hoeing the witch-grass out of the wheat, We dream we are turning lathes, Or open our shops, in the early morning, And look for a moment along the quiet street ... And we do not laugh, though it is strange In a harrowing second of time To traverse so many worlds, so many ages, And come to this chaos again, This vast symphonic dance of death, This incoherent dust. III We are growing old, we are older than the stars: You whom I knew a moment ago Have walked through ages of silence since then, Memory is forsaking me, I no longer know If we are one or two or the blades of grass ... All night long, lying together, We think in caverns of dreadful sound, We grope among falling boulders, We are overtaken and crushed, we rise once more, Performing, wearily, The senseless things we have performed so often before. Yesterday is coming again, Yesterday and the day before, And a million others, all alike, one by one, Sulphurous clouds and a red sun, Sulphurous clouds and a yellow moon, And a cold drizzle of endless rain Driving across them, wetting the barrels of guns, Dripping, soaking, pattering, slipping, Chilling our hands, numbing our feet, Glistening on our chins. And then, all over again, after grey ages, Sulphurous clouds and a red sun, Sulphurous clouds and a yellow moon ... I had my childhood once, now I have children, A boy who is learning to read, a girl who is learning to sew, And my wife has brown hair and blue eyes ... Our parapet is blown away, Blown away by a gust of sound, Dust is falling upon us, blood is dripping upon us, We are standing somewhere between earth and stars, Not knowing if we are alive or dead ... All night long it is so, All night long we hear the guns, and do not know If the word will come to charge to-day. IV It will be like that other charge-- We will climb out and run Yelling like madmen in the sun Running stiffly on the scorched dust Hardly hearing our voices Running after the man who points with his hand At a certain shattered tree, Running through sheets of fire like idiots, Sometimes falling, sometimes rising. I will not remember, then, How I walked by a hedge of wild roses, And shook the dew off, with my sleeve, I will not remember The shape of my sweetheart's mouth, but with other things Ringing like anvils in my brain I will run, I will die, I will forget. I will hear nothing, and forget ... I will remember that we are savage men, Motherless men who have no past, Nothing of beauty to call to mind No tenderness to stay our hands ... V We are tired, we have thought all this before, We have seen it all, and thought it all. We have tried to forget, we have tried to change, We have struggled to climb an invisible wall, But if we should climb it, could we ever return? We have known it all, and felt it all Till we can know no more ... Let us climb out and end it, then, Lest it become immortal. Let us climb out and end it, then, Just for the change ... This is the same night, still, and you, and I, Struggling to keep our feet in a chaos of sound. And the same puff of smoke Passes, to leave the same stars in the sky. VI Out there, in the moonlight, How still in the grass they lie, Those who panted beside us, or stumbled before us, Those who yelled like madmen and ran at the sun, Flinging their guns before them. One of them stares all day at the sky As if he had seen some strange thing there, One of them tightly holds his gun As if he dreaded a danger there, One of them stoops above his friend, By moon and sun we see him there. One of them saw white cottage walls With purple clematis flowers and leaves, And heard through trees his waterfalls And whistled under the eaves; One of them walked on yellow sand And watched a young girl gathering shells-- Once, a white wave caught her hand ... One of them heard how certain bells Chimed in a valley, mellow and slow, Just as he turned to go ... VII All night long, all night long, We see them and do not remember them, We hear the terrible sounds of guns, We see the white rays darting and darting, We are beaten down and crawl to our feet, We wipe the dirt from mouths and eyes, Dust-coloured animals creeping in dust, Animals stupefied by sound; We are beaten down, and some of us rise, And some become a part of the ground, But what do we care? We never knew them, Or if we did it was long ago ... Night will end in a year or so, We look at each other as if to say, Across the void of time between us, 'Will the word come to-day?' ...tats all... kat=) |

Pantun! Here We Go!
For those who do not know what is pantun. It is a poem. A malay poem. There are rules that one have to follow in order to create a pantun. It's very hard to explain but nevermind.
Here's one example:
(me and me fren did)
Pergi ke taman melihat burung kenari,
Yang hinggap di bahu Ainan,
Antara teman perempuan dengan kawan sejati,
Yang manakah anda pentingkan?
Nice, isn't it? Haha...Back to topic. Last week, my teacher decided to have a pantun competition. There must be four representatives from each group. Each representative must at least have 2 questions and 2 answers which all together...empat pantun. I cannot deny it was a very fun experience.
Last Friday, they had the first round which was between Group 1 and 4. Once Group 1 was taking too much time, till Muhaimin got angry and said:
Pergi ke kedai membeli mi,
Tolong jangan bazirkan masa kami.
He said it over-dramatically. Melody too high. Pitching lari...alamak...ai yo yo...
It was super funny but damn, does he has a talent. I mean, really. He can be a great speaker in the future. He has the confidence. The looks? The voice. But maybe just not the height. WAKAKA but he is a really great bundle of fun. Did I forget to mention?
He's my class monitor....with a lot of tactics inside his sleeves. Oh, does he just loves to sing ans dance in class. Our all-time free entertainer...haha...
Here's one example my tuition teacher did:
Kita hidup di zaman sensasi,
Zaman yang penuh cabaran,
Ilmu dikongsi ikhlas dari hati,
Menuju ke mercu kejayaan.
The fight between the two groups lasted almost one hour. Finally, the 4th group if I'm not mistaken won which consists of Akif, Hazim, Fara and of course, our class monitor Muhaimin.
Today, my group went up against the 2nd group
2nd group:
Adila- budak baik
Anis- bendahari pengawas
Claudine- my 'hubby' ...hahaha...
Lokman- da 'cool' guy...
3rd grouppie...muaxz grouppie...
Mimi- the girl who is always hapi
Katherine- the cina selalu cute gurl (ye, aq suka perasan. ade mslah ke?!)
Shafiqah- loud and funny
Hilman- cool, relaxed
HAHA !
A few pantun for you!
Kanak-kanak main sorok-sorok,
Bermain di kawasan perumahan,
Janganlah kita saling mengutuk,
Apakah sebab pergaduhan?
Tubuh pendekar berbentuk sasa,
Jangan sekali cuba menghina,
Berkawan berbeza budaya dan bangsa,
Tidak kira Melayu, India dan Cina.
We fought. Hard. We prayed. We played harder. We cried. But no, it didn't stop us. The winds start to blow. The sky started to get dark. It started raining. But we didn't stop....
Over-dramatic?
Okay....anyway, we won!!!
I'm getting to tired to further this post any longer...
Have to sidai kain lepas ni...pastu esok kena bangun pagi...huhu
Gud byez...everyone...
remeba,,,,He'll be there!
Choqzzzz...
KatHerine.....Muax...luv u ...
p.s- we got second =)

Hear Our Voices !
They are obviously not listening to the voices of the people. How can they say they have made many meetings and stuff about this matter and they have finally come up to this conclusion? They are doing this for the future of Malaysia? How can this policy benefit us?
I am a student. I was the last batch of using Science and Maths in Malay (UPSR 2007). I am lucky enough to be able to continue studying in English till Form 5. But here I am, I speak for the silent cries of students. Yes, I am happy but also, truly sad. What about the younger children?
The government are not thinking properly! If this is the result, they have wasted time doing researchs.If they say this is for our future, our future is not going to be a nice one. It will be dark, bleak and full of Malaysians who can't even speak basic English, for goodness sake! We keep telling them, that we support the PPSMI policy but why are they not listening? Are they blind? Are they deaf? Or simply oblivious and dumb? Isn't it so funny that the government are full of educated and wise people yet they have come up with such a stupid descision ???
Why should we continue with English for Science and Maths?
Point 1:
Firstly, English is the international language. Yes, I do not deny that Bahasa Malaysia ia also a very important language as it is our national language but ENGLISH is the INTERNATIONAL language. To be able to compete with other countries, we HAVE to be able to master the English language.
Look at Singapore for instance, they are using English as their main language. What happened to them? They are now known for their good education. A-levels, O-levels and stuff. I have tried for a scholarship to Singapore before which is under Asean Scholarship. In order to pass, you must take three tests. General knowledge, Mathematics and English. General Knowledge was easy. English was okay but you can't say it was easy. Compared to the exams I take at school, theirs is much better and it really tests your English. The standard of our English in Malaysia is low. Very low and that is the main reason why the education system in Malaysia is not regconized globally. Next was Maths. It was super hard! Can u believe that the test is meant for Secondary One? It was like doing a SPM test!
Point 2:
Learning Science and Maths in English does not decrease our patriotism. It is so funny that people can come up with such ideas....gosh! Next, they would be saying.
Chinese, better don't learn Mandarin!
Indians, don't learn Tamil!
Why? ....they are scared that we would be less patriotism. What are you guys trying to say actually? That learning other languages is wrong? Maybe, we should stick to one language only and forget about communication with other nations. Please be more open-minded! Learning many languages is now the latest trend. Being proficient in English doesn't mean we can't be good in Malay too. We can be proficient in both languages, can't we? Is that even a sin?
My conclusion:
We should stick to the PPSMI policy. How long must Malaysia live under a nutshell? I just don't get it. The policy has only been implented for less than 6 years and they are saying...IT AIN'T GONNA WORK...isn't that so shallowed-minded? This shows that the government has no faith in us, the students. They do not believe that we would be able to master English. How can they possibly think that Malaysia is going to be a great country in the future if they do not have faith in the younger generation?
How can they expect results only after implenting the policy for less than 6 years? 6 years is very short. To gain real results, it would take many years. Maybe 10? Maybe 15? To wake you up. Did we gain independence day within 6 years? Did we? Did we? No, we did not! We took many, many years in order to gain it. We had to suffer. We had to go through so much pain. Everything takes time. The government just needs to have a little faith.
Lastly, I do not support BM in Science and Maths. I would truly hope that the government would re-think about their descision as it would involve the whole Malaysia and the future of this country. I say, one mistake could lead to a very, very big failure. We are not talking about little things but the future of Malaysia! The future of our beloved country! Please, the government. Open your ears, open your eyes. Start to listen to the little voices of this country and not just yours.
That is all.
A student who would like to see a change.
For Malaysia.
