A Ghastly Accident
Yesterday morning was just like any other mornings. In fact, the road heading to the school was not too congested I thought I would be able to reach school earlier. Who knows...
I was indulged in my storybook when everything happened just in a blink of eye. Out of the blue, my dad pressed hard on the brake and I fell a little forward, to the right as well. I thought that would already take me long to recover my composure and tidy myself, but I was definitely WRONG since another incident took me even long to do so.
At the juncture, there was an intense strength crushed into the back part of my car. I felt myself fall down even more, as if I was falling down into a hole with depth of infinity. The whole world seemed to be shaking vigorously, and the ambiance seemed to turn dim. I felt that everything was thrown to the front, including myself. Meanwhile, a loud harsh sound came from the back. Obviously something was breaking into billions of pieces. I thought it was the back windscreen which shattered. Luckily it wasn't.
Within seconds the car stopped shaking and I got up slowly. My head and my back were painful after being hit for several times. In dizziness, I found my car was in chaos as everything was thrown forward and down. When I looked out of the car, my dad was already busy making phone calls and trying to resolve the problem. Then, he hurriedly rush over to see if I was ok. He even rubbed the part where I told him was painful. I was touched, frankly...
Dad told me I couldn't get to school since our car was severely damaged. I kept reassuring my dad it's ok to miss a few lessons. Moreover, I was suffering from nausea since my internal organs were seemingly disorientated and upside down. Almost every part of my body ached and I was persistently engulfed by giddiness. Anyway, I just went to school when yee kee's mum offered me and another boy (who was involved in the accident as well and also studied in lok yuk) a lift. Thanks for her willingness and kindness... She parked her car at the opposite side of the road and had to cross the congested road to lead us to her car. She was really really absolutely kind and helpful.
Well, the whole accident is as follows: actually there were 5 cars involved, not 4 as what people assume. A Myvi stopped abruptly and the CRV at the back stopped too, without causing any accident. But the Nissan behind the CRV failed to stop on time and it crushed a little into the CRV. That was just a minor accident. My car was just behind the Nissan. Realising the car in front was involved in an accident, my dad braked instantaneously, and was ready to strive his car to another lane. Who knows, the Prado at the back was so near to my car it couldn't stop on time and crushed directly into our car. I supposed the woman hadn't applied the brake when it started crushing, for the strength was like a few oxen running and crushing into a man. Luckily there was a tyre at the back of our car, otherwise I think my dad's and my lives would be at risk. So innocently we were also involved in the already existing accident.
I heaved a sigh of relief as no one was injured in the accident. My dad and I were still suffering from pain at several body parts. Hope we can rehabilitate in a short time. I'm still mad with the woman driving the Prado... God bless, hope she'll never be driving at our back again! I have a phobia when passing the area now...

Head-swivelling toughness leading to this post...
SPM报考10科已成为事实了。说真的，这有一点扼杀学生报考科目的自由。但有什么法子呢？好多人都劝我别放弃华文，因为在外头没得学华文。我也觉得身为华人子弟，应该拿华文，不然报考华文的人数就持续下降。虽然是较难拿A1，但为了传承华人5000年的文化着想，唯有努力一些咯......
又隐居了好一段日子。这次的隐居，是为了亚庇区辩论比赛。幸亏在转校前有这两年的训练底子，我才能在乐育毫无他人的帮助下，自我训练，并教导队友，因为在他们当中不少是新人，甚至没接触过辩论。在得知亚庇区有选拔赛的消息时，我们仅剩两星期的时间，同一道辩题还需准备两方。我们几乎每天都留下来，甚至礼拜天的时间也牺牲了。其实这是相当不足的，因为要把一些同学从零转化到能应对其他学校老将，两星期又能做得了什么呢？无论如何，最后的成绩却让我们的付出有所回报。然而，得到了冠军，并不代表我校实力强。我承认，我们当天的表现，连我自己本身的表现，都是平平而已。得到了冠军和最佳辩员的殊荣，我却不断自责，不断愧疚，只因当我回想及看录影带时，我发现我的表现中存在着许多弊病，应该可以做得更好的。可是，为了避免让自己的情绪低落下去，我尝试往正面想：这是我首次担任结辩一职，在几乎没有任何训练的情况下，能做到如此应该挺不错了；而我自由辩较前两年也有了进步。我会自责、愧疚，表示我会反省，表示我还有进步的空间。何况裁判都肯定了我，我为何不自我肯定呢？
即将来临的全州赛，又是一个全新的开始。届时，面对的全是高手，而现在得做的，是更多更多的准备功夫。我没有期望些什么，只期望能汲取经验。目前，我也了解到，国中与独中辩论准备过程是迥然不同的。到了新的环境，就要有新的应对心态。
Debate is not merely a competition. It's about teamwork, about how every teammate cooperates with each other and is willing to sacrifice. The competition lasts for only half an hour, but you need to spend at least several tens hours to prepare for it. The process is, frankly, a hardship to encounter, moreover without others' help. Therefore, down the stage, debate is actually a test on your resilience, tenacity, determination, diligence as well as your willingness to sacrifice. Whilst on the stage, debate is a test on your steadiness, wit, confidence, technique as well as how you utilize your information and even your prior knowledge. The outcome of debate depends pretty much on the cooperation between teammates. If one of them is not cooperative, then I should say everything is over. I admit that the happiness at winning the competition is not usually commensurate with the worry and sacrifice leading to it. However, it's the worry and sacrifice which make you grow up, make you open your eyes and make you realise the saying "as you sow, so as you reap". If losing the competition, you should feel honoured and fortunate to be able to involve yourself in debate. At least you've gained a lot of knowledge which you couldn't find in any textbooks and most important, you've made new friends, haven't you?
I could tell that debate has made me grow up a lot, really. It makes me believe in myself that I could juggle my time between studying and practising. It makes me have the courage and confidence to speak in front of public. It makes me possess leadership. It makes me mature in thinking. It has brought about so many advantages to me. So if I am given the opportunity to continue be involved in debate, how could I let the chance go?

痴痴地等，伤透脑筋......
SPM报考10科已不再是新鲜话题。然而，教育部却始终没有作出一个明确的决定。每天都痴痴地待在收音机旁，报章一到手便使劲地“挖掘”，希望能看见相关报道。可是，每次看见的只是教育部的计划，以及各界人士的意见，心中的疑问始终得不到解答。不断在想：10科，我还得放弃4科，有这么多“无谓”科目让我放弃吗？若真的是10科，那就代表我必须放弃美术了。但，至今没有消息证明这一建议即将落实，而美术又有一个复杂的project等着我完成。去做，又怕到最后徒然浪费心思与时间；不去做，又怕不能在少过一个月的时间内完成。结果，到现在仍然未开工，每天守在收音机及网上新闻前，换来的却是一次又一次的失望......
一波未平，一波又起。今天傍晚又“杀出”新消息：教育部思考英文是否该列为大马教育文凭须及格科目。天啊！为何不尽快解决之前的课题，再来慢慢计划之后的“改革”呢？我可是心急如焚呀！唉......总觉得教育部近来喜爱提出一些惊人的建议，却迟迟没能有个决定，让莘莘学子的脑袋里充满无数个问号。不是说在上星期讨论这课题吗？怎么到今天音信全无？看来我还得痴痴地等待，脑袋瓜再大多几寸了......

Who's The Main Character? =.="
感觉像“隐居”了一段日子，现在应该是时候blogging了......
Yesterday I went out with my sis and her friends to 1 Borneo. Just before Ah Chua arrived at our house to give us a lift, I had a terrible stomachache and was wondering if I would be able to hang out with them or not. Fortunately it did not last for a long time and it went out just within minutes! Heaved a sigh of relief...
We went for dinner straight away as soon as we reached 1 Borneo. We had quite a sumptuous dinner at New York City. I shared a 9-inch-king-size Giant Yankee Chicken burger with my sis, Hui Wen and Karen. I couldn't believe my eyes when the waitress served the burger. Even a quarter of it is more than enough for a person! When I was about to take the burger, everyone started taking the french fries around the burger. I realised that I have quite a different habit with others, even with my own friends, which is having burger before having french fries. So I just followed them and took the french fries. It was as if no one dared to move the parts of burger out of its orderly arrangement until sis took one part for me. The meat kept dropping off from the bread though I tried my best to push it inside and inside, and finally I surrendered to the "obstinate" "hyperactive" chicken meat and just left the dropped-out pieces in my plate, enjoying the burger in my hands. Every mouthful of the burger was a new yet superb taste to me. While we had started savouring the burger, my sis was stil enjoying the french fries (without her awareness I supposed, since she always put french fries as her priority whenever there are french fries). That's why she claimed that she had already been full even though she hadn't even had a bite of her burger! She asked me to help her a little with her burger (hey, I almost finished my own part at that moment! I was already halfway full la!) Since nobody could lend her a "mouth", she had to force herself to finish it (some bread was still left on the plate at the end).

Mouth-watering Chicken Yankee Burger!
After dinner, we proceeded to walk around. Everywhere was seemed to be flooded by crowds, with the anticipation for Jolin. So we had to go upstairs by elevator. We decided to watch the show from upstairs (from a far far distance), but even the place there was such crowdy! We managed to get ourselves a not-very-nice place, which we had to move our heads and tiptoed to be slightly able to take a "peep" of the show. Long we stood, moving here and there, yet the main character still hadn't come into our sight. Sweat kept flowing from my head through my hair. FINALLY she came out with four dancers and started her performance. She sang and danced energetically, even my sis highly complimented her performance (well, she didn't talk much about Jolin before that).
After her performance, we continued walking around. Karen is really a veteran in those cosmetics and make up stuff. I had sought a few things I wanted quite desperately in Sasa. Wondering when I would be able to go there again and buy all those stuff I want...I even opened my eyes watching the two 'KKLS'(my sis's idea bcz she said all the students there except my sis's badge are of low qualities, with serious,horrible,terrible and vegetable psyco and mental problem!!hahaha!!and what I saw last night was really a fact and it proved that what my sis said was corrrect!^^") girls surreptitiously following my sis all the way up the escalator! Seemed like meeting with another Jolin huh?? I was wondering...Jolin should be signing her grand signatures on her albums, how come she emerged at the escalator at the same moment?Jolin, Christ'na,傻傻分不清楚? LOL Their acts were hilarious and extremely strange...
At around 10pm, we went for supper at Kolombong. I forced myself to have a dumpling..Haha.. Well, in a nutshell, it was trully fun to hang out with sis's friends. Funny and amusing topics will be popped out from their mouths from time to time and you'll never feel bored being with them. Thanks for letting me having an outing spree with you guys...=)
*******************************************************************************
Today I went for lunch with my ex-classmates at Maple cafe. When I saw Adam, I was somehow scared by his appearance. Please, Adam, eat a bit more and don't scare others even in the morning! He's so skinny that I'd thought I saw a walking skeleton! LOL
I was late for about 45 minutes...Sorry to Vincent, Nelson, Denise and Gloria...Forgive me please...But I wasn't the latest one ^^ When I went through the menu, I found that almost every food and drinks have been more expensive. Oh man... I ordered my favourite avocado juice, but to my disappointment there was no more avocado. So instead I ordered papaya milk ( deliberately? XP). I wasn't that hungry, so I ordered garlic bread. "No garlic." What?! Why everything I ordered had run out of stock? Then I ordered mushroom soup. The waitress suddenly let out a raucous and somehow impatient "HUH?", making me almost doing the same thing. I thought I had pronounced the name wrongly or whatsoever, but I didn't. Finally realised that she didn't hear what I said clearly...but can't she ask again politely instead of "HUH?" and showing a scowling expression?
Having quite a period of time chatting with my friends...My happiness wasn't commensurate with my grieve afterwards when I realised that the ribbon of my right high-heeled-shoe fell off somewhere! It couldn't be seen along the stairs up to my house and I'm pretty sure it had been falled off in damai...Haiz..careless me. This is the second time the ribbon of my shoes fell off. But what to do? I've to utilize my creativity to redecorate my shoes...

读书，为何？
最近常常在思考这个问题，今天与同学阅读《升学情报》一刊时，蓦然瞥见以此为主体的篇章—《为什么要读书？》，顿时目光立刻被吸引住了，大伙儿便颇有兴趣地阅读，不时也深表赞同，同时更肯定了我的想法。
不知从何时起，文凭似乎成了通往理想目标的通行证。别看是那么一张极薄的纸，其作用可是无可限量，决定着我们的一生如何度过。正因如此，文凭成了莘莘学子的追求品，而读书也顺理成章地成了获取文凭的主要管道。众所周知，读书能让我们汲取知识，自我增值，开拓视野。然而，时下学生读书，真的是为了自我充实吗？
马来西亚的课程纲要及其范围日愈广泛，学生被限定在若干年之内便得掌握好所学习的知识，并在官方考试中一一从脑里将之掏出。能掏得越多并越准确，便能成为学术上的佼佼者。这样一来，学生们素日就拼命啃书，认为多多益善，甚至囫囵吞枣，不经消化便往脑里塞。这样的局面让教育的最终目的彻底地被扭曲了。教育的原则不是德智体群美劳吗？为了一张文凭，学生甚至教师仅仅重视智，其他五项全置之度外。学生即使有再高的才智，但品德与情商差强人意，将来又如何无社会各阶层人士打交道，又怎能立足社会呢？
马来西亚的学生，必须精通三大语言外，更有多项科目必须学习，而且有者是必选科。纵使升上高中后，学生能自行选择自己甚感兴趣的科目，但还有一些科目是无从选择的。为了考取佳绩，学生将教育局所规定的课程纲要牢牢地所在脑海里，考试时再把书本里的文字几乎一字不漏地“复制”，“粘贴”。虽是说读书须靠了解，并非死记，但何科不需非凡的记忆能力呢？学生领悟能力强，但记忆力就是不行，难道表示他的学习能力不甚理想吗？
再者，考试真的能评估一个学生的学习能力吗？考试，需拥有充足的准备功夫外，更被许多外来因素左右着，譬如：当天的精神状态，身体状况，思维能力与精准度等。有些学生领悟能力较弱，需耗费较长的时间方能彻底了解课文，但是考试时间却无法做出调整，因此还未来得及做足准备便得进入考场。难道我们能否定它们的学术表现?这着实对他们很不公平。
分数，真的能评估一个学生吗？这句话已耳熟能详，甚至脍炙人口，但，有多少人真正领悟其中的道理？家长与家长碰面时，无不谈起孩子的成绩，有谁会问起孩子的操行分？分数真的不是首要，为何家长还急着送孩子到处补习？分数既不能评估孩子，为何还会有精英班与后段班？明显的，人们还是重视着分数，分数低的学生将承受着被谴责或训斥的压力。或许父母是“爱之深，责之切”，可是，在教训孩子前，先得查清：孩子是否已赴了全力？读书是否是孩子的专长？毕竟孩子不是读书的料，再怎么逼他也于事无补。这就等同于要不擅丹青的孩子画一幅栩栩如生的画，不擅音乐的孩子演奏乐曲，何尝不是强人所难？尽管如此，教育政策使得分数扮演独裁者的角色，让大部分人无法茅塞顿开。
正如《升学情报》中所说的：“当成绩标青的学生受访时，他们只是分享自身的读书心得，从未有人说过‘我非常享受读书的过程，它充实了我的人生’”。可想而知，学生并非真正发自内心地喜爱读书，似乎只是背负着无从推卸的使命。“万般皆下品，唯有读书高”已在众多人的脑海中根深蒂固。书读得越多越好。于是，人人都努力念书，甚至立志取得学士，硕士，直到博士学位。这些学位都让人们煞羡不已，但学了这么多，是否全都能加以应用？若非如此，多年来的心血岂非付诸东流？况且，有一部分学子无法承受学习压力，甚至寻短一了百了。这就是教育所要看见的下场吗？智商高，情商却低，一丁点小挫折都不堪一击，这难道是一个身心健全的人吗？
学校有太多东西学习，成天一回家便是埋头苦读，但读的全都是学校课本，时事，语文及其他书籍一概不理。结果思维受到束缚，不能灵活应变，只会把课文输入与输出。将来又如何能随机应变，应付重大问题？
无可否认，学习固然是学生的职责，但以考试为核心的教育却孕育出不健康的学生一族。学习是为了充实自己，不是与他人比较，而学习也得依照个人的兴趣与能力，这样方能培育快乐的读书人，让学生不再视读书为苦差。（本篇纯属个人对读书之浅见 ^^ ）
不知从何时起，文凭似乎成了通往理想目标的通行证。别看是那么一张极薄的纸，其作用可是无可限量，决定着我们的一生如何度过。正因如此，文凭成了莘莘学子的追求品，而读书也顺理成章地成了获取文凭的主要管道。众所周知，读书能让我们汲取知识，自我增值，开拓视野。然而，时下学生读书，真的是为了自我充实吗？
马来西亚的课程纲要及其范围日愈广泛，学生被限定在若干年之内便得掌握好所学习的知识，并在官方考试中一一从脑里将之掏出。能掏得越多并越准确，便能成为学术上的佼佼者。这样一来，学生们素日就拼命啃书，认为多多益善，甚至囫囵吞枣，不经消化便往脑里塞。这样的局面让教育的最终目的彻底地被扭曲了。教育的原则不是德智体群美劳吗？为了一张文凭，学生甚至教师仅仅重视智，其他五项全置之度外。学生即使有再高的才智，但品德与情商差强人意，将来又如何无社会各阶层人士打交道，又怎能立足社会呢？
马来西亚的学生，必须精通三大语言外，更有多项科目必须学习，而且有者是必选科。纵使升上高中后，学生能自行选择自己甚感兴趣的科目，但还有一些科目是无从选择的。为了考取佳绩，学生将教育局所规定的课程纲要牢牢地所在脑海里，考试时再把书本里的文字几乎一字不漏地“复制”，“粘贴”。虽是说读书须靠了解，并非死记，但何科不需非凡的记忆能力呢？学生领悟能力强，但记忆力就是不行，难道表示他的学习能力不甚理想吗？
再者，考试真的能评估一个学生的学习能力吗？考试，需拥有充足的准备功夫外，更被许多外来因素左右着，譬如：当天的精神状态，身体状况，思维能力与精准度等。有些学生领悟能力较弱，需耗费较长的时间方能彻底了解课文，但是考试时间却无法做出调整，因此还未来得及做足准备便得进入考场。难道我们能否定它们的学术表现?这着实对他们很不公平。

Elated? Grieve?
My heartbeat increased gradually when my English teacher went into the class, with a pile of exam papers in her hands. Oh man! What would I score for English? I'm nt that confident with English as I think I don't have a good basic. I've known the result of paper 2 (comprehension) from Roger, still ok I think...yet I'm anxious to see how many marks I get for my essays. I could feel that my hands were trembling when I got the papers back from teacher! Immediately I calculated the actual mark. Wow! Exactly 80! That seems like a dream-come-true to me as I aim for A's in my exam! Furthermore, scoring A in English is not easy. I'm satisfied enough with my mark. I read a few essays of my friends who scored well. Theirs impressed me profoundly. Hmm...I know that I still need a lot of improvement. Guess I have to reduce the time to watch tv and increase the time to read books after the exam...
Just when I was in the ecstacy of joy, prefects began entering every class. "Students, please go out! There's a spot check now!" Reminiscing what I had put into my bag, I thought that I would be safe. Just then, Vennesa reminded me about the correction pen. Oh! I have totally forgotten that correction pen is not allowed in Lok Yuk! Anyway, I didn't have any time to put it somewhere else. So I just headed to the outside with the hope that luck would strike me today ( impossible la!). As what I had predicted, I had to bid farewell to my correction pen..Haiz..Why didn't I hide it somewhere instead of just leaving it in the pencil case? Still being a bit remorseful for my stupidity...
My Bio results quite let me down..I didn't score very well in Paper3. Well, another improvement required..Paper 2 hasn't been returned yet. In order to get A, I can just lose 15 marks out of 100 in paper2, but that's obviously impossible! So getting ready to face a B for Bio..
Feeling so drowsy now..don't even know what I'm writing about..guess I have to stop here and finish my account homework which will take me at least 2 hours.I'm lazed off by my lugubriousness these few days..Got to be resilient and proceed to my tasks again though exam is just over.By the way, thanks a lot to Karen jie jie(weird weird de^^) for helping me with my bloggy!

A Whole New Feeling
Hey guys! Eventually I've created a new blog of mine! Actually I've been thinking of creating a blog since donkey's years ago, but I just couldn't find the time to do so. Now exam is over, so I make up my mind to create a blog, letting out my feelings and sharing every single of my thoughts.
I just knew that I'm able to join the STTSS monitor training camp yesterday. How blissful I was upon thinking that I'm going to meet my friends there again! This year, I'll be participating with a different status for I'm no longer a STTSS student. I decided to transfer to Lok Yuk when I was in Junior 3 as it's more suitable for the future I desire. It's actually a difficult decision to make as it indicates that I'll have to leave my intimates, teachers and the environment I have been familiar with for 3 years. I missed everything so much initially that I was really moody at the beginning. Furthermore, obstructions will befall me as I need to adjust myself well in the new ambiance. I also have to be active and initiative to mix with new friends or else I'll be left alone. The first few weeks was akin to a nightmare to me as I felt so jittery in the new school. However, things changed after some time and even my characters changed. I talk more than I did before and I no longer suppress my feelings, especially for laughing(well, I always laugh hysterically in front of others!). Transferring is a great turning point in my life and it has taught me that there are things which are required to be put down in order to achieve another thing. I have also been trained to be tough in new environment and learn to be independent to cope with any problems and difficulties.
Today I went to Yayasan Tun Mustafa to watch the scholarship awarding ceremony with my classmates. I've never expected to bump into STTSS friends there. I was able to greet some of them and chattered a little with them. They seemed to be a little shocked to see me in my government school uniform. Well, I know that they just haven't get used of my new look, yet I have as I've been wearing it for almost half a year.
From tomorrow onwards, more exam papers will be returned and I've to get myself ready to face any possibilities that may appear in my results. Hope I'll be satisfied with it. Bless myself!
