CHINESE....

I knew about my chinese subject result today. I got 64 marks. Despite this very B among my other results, i got first in class.... haha:) Thank God..

Albeit i don't have to take chinese for my spm, but i chose to take it, for reasons unknown. When i am in form 4 and Pn Tee was our chinese teacher, i thought that my chinese will just go 'kong' and that i will fail my chinese. To tell the truth, i wasn't good in my chinese since i was young as i came from an english educated family.

I did not know how i came to know this language. I remembered when i was small, my mum likes to make fun of me by talking to me in mandarin. I don't even a single word that comes out from my mums mouth. So, desperate, i would say:" Mummy, don't talk to me like this leh.." I talk to my dad, mum and aunts in english and to my grandma, i speak to her in hainanese.

When i entered kindergarten, i think, that was when i got to learn how to speak in mandarin. That's because my friends were all mandarin speaking. I had no choice. That's when i asked my grandma a question. Does she know how to speak in mandarin? Surprisingly, my grandma knows. Since then, i started speaking mandarin.

I did not know how i pulled through my primary school years. I only know some chinese word apart from my chinese name. For 6 years i studied in a chinese environment. I remembered, there were times that i did not understand what the teacher is talking and make a joke out of myself. haha Maybe that was why i am so quiet.

When i was in primary 6, when i was sitting for my UPSR, my chinese result was the worst in class. The teacher was so worried about me. At that time, i also wasn't good in my maths too. Through many cannings and punishments, i eventually got an A for both subjects.. In a way, i am very thankful to my primary school teachers for making me to be what i am today.

Untill secondary school, i continued studying chinese because it was compulsary for all chinese school leavers to take the chinese subject in PMR. Despite my always 79, 78 results, i got an A for my chinese. It was all God's grace, i would say.

Today, i chose to take the chinese subject as one of my SPM subject. But i don't regret making this decision, even though i did not do well in this exam. Some people did not take chinese just to get a straight 1A in the SPM. But i would not mind taking this risk, as i know that God will help me to pull through the challenges ahead...

加油！！！

Holiday!!!!

Its finally the holidays again... yay!!!!

However, i still have to go to school for the extra classes the school authorities had planned for us. But in a way, it was quite fun...

I really felt sad about the sichuan earthquake. The most heart wrenching thing is that many children had lost their lives in this quake. Some of the children had to amputate their limbs in order to get them out from the remains of the buildings. However, amputating limbs was their last resort as the children could not stand the pain already.. I really wanted to help, but i couldn't do much except for donating money..

When i become a doctor one day, i am going to get myself involve in all these life saving work.. I remember telling some of my friends about this. Whenever and wherever there's an earthquake, tsunami, or disease outbreak, eg SARS i will get myself involve in all these. That's what drive my determination to become a doctor. Not to earn more money, but to save lives... haha

Today, an Olympia College person called me . Wah Sei!! He asked me to join one of their programs. I didn't felt like joining and wanted to reject him in a mannered way. Howener, i just screw thing up. First i said that i have extra classes ( which i do not have them in June) and later i mistakingly asked him for more information. The worst mistake i ever done. So he talked and talked for ages.... hahaha anyway, i am not the one paying hahahaha....

At the end of the conversation, i told him that i wasn't interested.... You see lah... I am so bad. Asked for informations and let him talked so much.. and then said that i am not interested. I shouldn't have asked him for more... I know my mistake and will learn from it... I am so bad.... so sorry.... :(
