My Year 2 Sem 2

Gotten jot down a little more since I'm aging.. haha

Feeling really occupied and busy this semester. I like the feeling when I spend my time doing Something. Something good. In the beginning, it was really scary cause I cannot imagine how are we going to manage things well with 4 subjects in one semester. We did it anyway! :') It wasn't too bad. Hahaha It is always like that. Fear to take the step and felt great after accomplishing it. 

Started off to occupy myself with my job too in this semester. 

The ideal job for me: 

-with kids

-earning for whichever

-only half day

Training for this job was tough for me. So hard to please SH and PL. So tensed up especially when PL is around. Now that they are slowly letting me off, I am less pressured.

Of course, if only I can sleep more. It would be even better this semester. hahahaa me and my sleeeep.. I always think that we can perform better if we have sufficient rest.

Long semester or short semester?? Short semester for me! So I don't have all the time in the world to slack:D

Happy Day

Good Mood Today! Know whyy?? I was able to sleep till 12 plus noon :')

These days I gotta wake up early for either classes or work about 8am everyday :( I cannot even sleeeeeeep through my way once when I don't have to wake up that earlyyy cause my body clock is fixed. Saddddd Especially over the weekends since I need and mustt and Can't be late, I always jump up from bed in a  shocking manner or either why the heck my alarm rang soooo early on a beautiful weekend. LOL

Although today I automatically woke up around 8am again, I slept back.. Woke up several things and slept back several times. I don't even need to set my alarm. Awesomeness :') Energized after a good sleep in such cozy weather. No need to rush no need to worry... Life's great this way :D

Cheerful Family

Mini flashback of our conversation during our steamboat date! 

Elaine cant quite believe and understand that bsr and her family don't talk and communicate much during their meals and outings since Elaine's family isn't like that. 

Bsr's mum did all the talkings in family. This sounds rather familiar. I was partially laughing but her condition reminds me alot of mine too. Somehow similar but not exactly...

Awkward pairs of Lum Fam:

Me & eldest bro

Me & dad

other than that, it is fine. Attitude wise, 3 of us are the same. We talk but we don't talk that much at home.

Yesterday, during my lunch break, I was peacefully having my bak kut teh alone since my family wasn't around. Opposite of my seat, there was a cheerful family. Everyone was talking and chatting off happily. Sharing their daily life to one another. No awkwardness. There shouldn't be actually. What I like most is the daddy and mummy of that family were very cute. They did most of the talkings especially daddy in a very delightful manner. Not those typical strict fierce looking dad. I admire how they communicate. Spending a random Sunday like that is whole lot of joy. Can't directly jump into conclusion that they are a happy family but at least what I saw is the ideal way how I would picture a happy cozy family should be. 

Random admiring going on. Every family has its own way of communicating. As for mine, I don't think we are neither the worst nor the best. Now, I have gotten so used how the way I communicate to certain individuals even I myself find it hard to make a sudden change. 

Communication eliminates distance and barriers; But also creates unnecessary problems.

Taking In Comments

I find myself really horrible especially in listening to people's not-so-positive feedbacks. It appears to be that I tend to fight for my right and I have hundreds, thousands and millions of reasons to support that I am right. 

Okay PC, this is a bad habit. 

Though the fact that I stay strong and wouldn't listen to it, I reflect myself when no one's there. When the night's quiet when I am alone... That's when I will admit to no one that I am wrong but I admit to myself that I am clearly wrong.

I guess this will take me a while to change but somehow I feel genuine feedbacks like these. It helps though I hate hearing some of them. 

Hopefully no one will label me as the stubborn buffalo that doesn't listen:) 

Heart-Warming

Dont know what made you felt the obligations to do so but anyway thankk youuuuuuuuu. Dont know I said how many times but I really appreciate it.

And today...My dad passed me this envelope and I know it is from youu.
Opened it on my way rushing to uni, I nearly teared reading the messages you wrote.

I like this project of yours to send to people who make a difference in your life. Indeed, you made a difference in mine too. You reminded me how important to be expressive and be less stingy with nice words. The fact that I always keep my praises and appreciations in heart. I am still finding a way to express them out loudly and proudly. I just do it in my way...

Being expressive reminds me of those guai lohs .. Able to show their love towards their family, friends and surroundings so well that I feel ashamed and useless at times for not expressing enough.



It feels great to know you meant something to someone.

I don't know exactly how many of my friends really have access to my blog and keep updated each time since I don't promote my blog. Just wanna I love you guys for who you are but hate it when you try to irritate me -_-

This is such a complicated love-hate relationship. lol

so much love for tonight:)

Do

what we aren't good in

what's hard

what we are afraid of

Exotic Live Food

When it comes to choosing topic, I like doing topic out of the norms. ECS speech was one of the longest preparation I did for a speech. Enthusiastic to tell the class what's happening around us. I can feel the anger and sadness every single time when I think about the few cases I chose. Super nervous that time despite I was practicing for so many days. The class was super quiett! No one was allowed to talk. It was really creepy! :(

So this time round, I gotta choose a topic for my persuasive speech. I did not choose something that will make me highhh but ended up I kept thinking about people who eat food when they are served alive. Thinking how to make this into an interesting topic and persuade the crowd, but somehow it linked me to Raw Foodism which I find it interesting too. 

A few interesting links to be shared  

10 Animals that People Eat Alive :

6 food we eat when the animal is alive:
http://ye5.blogspot.com/2010/11/6-foods-we-eat-while-animal-is-alive.html

It seems super cruel to eat them when they are alive. Oyster, Sannakji and Druken prawns are some that I can er.... sort of accept? Druken prawns seem scary to me. You gotta place those food right in front of me then I will know whether can I take it. Frog sashimi, ikizukuri and ying yang yu are horrifying! :OOO Im in such dilemma, I can and cant accept. I guess it may due to the fact that I was exposed more to Oyster, Sannakji and Druken prawns.  It is tightly related to one's culture. How a person is brought up and what are they exposed to I can say.

So a yah or neh? Your choice!

Don't Get It

What's your motive?

Either you are seriously noob until you cant feel the dislikes from the rest or you know but you just don't care. That shouldn't be the case. But if you know, why the heck do you keep doing things that make people pissed off? There is a limit. Don't always complain when things go wrong. Find time to think man. I used to blame others when things may not work out till I realised the problems may be caused by me. My own being. That's when you think... you think whether are you doing the right thing... or maybe it isn't your fault then think of a way to make things better. Why trying to make things ugly right?

I don't really think you are a bad fellow. I am trying to understand but... you are making things tough for me. My brain tells me to pay close attention while talking to you. I don't know how to help you. I seriously don't know.

PMP Closing

Finally Ended PMP Programmes! Though I wasnt super keen towards PMP but yeahhh I met lotsa new friends through it! and of course it gave me a chance to expose myself as an emcee. Different from those huge events but better than nothing. Overall, I wasnt as afraid as I thought since I was the one who arranged the program flow, explaining to them wasn't tough.

Opening
Happy At first then gotten a bit mad and moodless.

Outing
Couldnt make it due to my Family trip

Closing
Wrapped up whats left. Kinda different from opening although it was suppose to be more casual. Everyone knew and got comfy with each other. Controlling the crowds was tough!! Took Jayden and I quite a while just to give instructions. Saliva habis.

Nevetherless, everything ended beautifully and I enjoy seeing the bonds that developed among the men-tees and mentors. Too bad, I wasnt spending so much time talking to each of them personally.

Had a simple food-relay game with them ranging from breaking hard boiled hand with a hand, slurping in cup noodle, drinking a can of coke, moving potato chips with facial muscles and lastly blowing balloons with nose.

Gotta really thank star and jayden for being considerate. I was the one that added the stupid balloons inside ( forced to since running out of ideas and seems like they love balloons :((  ) But Jayden and Star knew my fear and actually came out with something we can do without bursting the balloons. You guys dont know how grateful and happy was I at that moment.

Toooooooooooooook so long till we started the first relay. Hopefully I was still in good tone. LOL constant OS on my head, '' Smile Smile.. Take it easyyyy. They are just overly excited.'' -________- They were draining my energy after a whole day of lectures.
