090926 4S1 gathering~

Today 10.30am I reached KP but I don't know where we meet, so felt abit nervous (everytime have this kind of feeling when attend gathering). But I saw yann herng was waitng at Big Apple so I went to meet with him. After that bee kee, chung lun, jia wei and others came. That time I sms-ed loon wern and knew that somebody waiting at our 1st destination, Soon Seng Bak Kut Teh, where behind KP. Then we all went together to meet with them.


We ordered bah kut teh before chit-chatting. There were among 16 persons around the big table--so it was abit crowded. When they all chit-chatted loon wern just kept quiet aside, don't know because of them? So loon wern just chatted with me but the topics were abit serious-- about future education. Haiyor..... loon wern always act to be alone at gathering. Luckily meei huey who sat left hand side of him always interrupted us and make the atmosphere be joyful. And here I also want to thank meei huey again because she poured tea for me everytime after I requested and said "斟茶", haha. Then we enjoy having bah kut teh when food was served.






After finish eating we continue our topic. Topic about homeworks was banned here because that time many of us were asking about biology presentation and chinese flash fiction, may spoil the atmosphere. "It was great to see 4 gangs together here" said zhang yik. "4 gangs? why using the terms I described in my blog?" I said. "Ya. Included kian siang who is independent with 3 gangs which attend here." "Today we must achieve One 4S1 mission today!" said chee seng and others. Lol... loon wern was just taking photos around. Then we gossiped about our teachers and laughed for fun. For those who can't catch up the topic was called different channel. Lol... 1st time heard this kind of terms. Then khoon kheng came.


Afterwards we went to KP to start our activities but some of us had different idea, some of them wanted to play pool, bowling or sing karaoke. Anyway we decided to sing karaoke 1st together 2 hours. The room was crowded because there were more than 20 persons inside. However I dislike the selection of songs here because most of songs are outdated. We sang the songs together and some of them dancing. Loon wern chose "London Bridge is Falling Down" out of our attention... Then we began to cross the "bridge" built by girls, and time was paused as we felt we were back to childhood. But we felt curious because the "bridge" can't be falling down at the end of song?! Why? forgot how to play ad? haha. Then members of chinese society left and somebody came finally.





Then we went to bowling and snooker centre but no space to us to play. Anyway we had played bowling 2 turns. There were many funny things happened that time at lane 15 and 16. Because of 1st time playing, some of us released the ball with wrong skill and loud knock was heard. Zhi xiang, who often made gutter ball in 1st turn gained strikes or spares in 2nd turn. Olivia and zhi xiang also gained strike at the beginning of game,旗开得胜, gan jiong~ I made double and finally I just gained 101 points in 2nd turn. Ray gained highest point and wen cern gained 2nd place among of us.


Next, we went to circus but most of us didn't play anything and some of them played race car. Loon wern, lonely boy played basketball and he suddenly said "yerr...why got furry ball here?" made girls laughing there XD. Someone played find 5 differences between 2 picture given (don't know what real name of game is). Then all of us surrounded 1 machine to play! With our power of observation we pass level by level until game over.



Then the girls left us to meet with their ji mui and eating. So we guys spent the time left by playing pool. Jia wei and I played blackball pool while others played other types of billiard. Finally I won jia wei, haha. Then we joined them to play nine-ball, ray & loon wern vs jia wei & I. All of us performed well and the balls were eliminated one by one. I pocketed brown ball and black ball then the last ball- 9-ball, I failed to pocket it and even striking the cue ball without hitting 9-ball... damn! the chance of free ball given to ray was returned to jia wei and jia wei pass the chance to loon wern... It's most difficult to achieve sucessful at last step to be won if we don't relax. Finally the chance was prized by loon wern and ended the game. Ray was teaching us to jump the cue ball over another ball to hit targeted ball. Learn something there, thanks ray!



It was time to attend mei cheng's open house but we guys decided to buy a gift 1st. We went to Giant to select the gift: mooncake, hamper, chocolate or maggie noodles (suggested by ray, haha). Now I realized that guys also po ma when buying something, haha. Finally we bought mooncake costed RM 62.15. Then we began the journey to mei ching's house. We still chatted and joked although the road was busy and the sky became dark. We reached the destination on 7.30 pm safely, some of classmates were there ad.



After gave buah tangan we were having our dinner and gathered in pondok beside bali pond. Then finish eating I sat aside. That time khoon kheng called me but I were suffering by muscle cramps in my right leg at sudden! Damn! How can be like that want? Thuan song helped me to treat muscle cramps and I felt better but loon wern just suan-siaoed me. Then we were taking photos together but suddenly I get cramp in my left leg! So I left them away. So sad can't took the next photos with them then and my mood was totally spoilt tonight.


Afterwards they were playing musical chair and I didn't know what this kind of game is. I thought is strong wind blow it blow what. LOL... Vivian chow was the 1st unlucky one, but she was punished with eating watermelon and posing to be taken photo. (At the second times everyone got places sit...???) Here I'm sorry because that time I left the game without informing because I scared both legs cramps and the atmosphere was too noisy and excited. So I just sat aside to watch you all playing and be punished when failed to have seat.



The game was reaching climax when zhi xiang was thrown out of circle and receiving the chair that threw by chee seng after the music was paused, in twinkling of an eye! So the victim was a little girl. "Our 4 years of friendship was not wasted to be have" said zhi xiang to thank chee seng under criticizing by everyone who wanted zhi xiang disqualified from the game. Anyway the unlucky girl was lucky to kiss her dear mom at public as punishment. Then the players were eliminated out and wei neng won the whole game after defeated a stubborn boy. Wei neng received a mooncake set as a reward and everyone was invited to finish up lut lut . They enjoyed eating lut lut and I was calling my dad to fetch me back. I left on 10.05 pm.
 Today's gathering was too sucessful because there are 33 members of 4S1 attend along this 12 hours. I was so sad because can't joined with you all that night. Well, I was enjoyed myself whole day, weren't you?



p/s: for those person who have the photos please send or upload photos to me. A picture is worth a thousand of words! And please write the event you experinced in 4S1 gathering at your blog to enrich the contents!

Fall in sick now =.=!!!

Today 1.00am to 2.00am, what are you all doing? still online or sleeping? I'm sure most of you sleeping ad, so do I. But when I went to bed I felt my throat was unwell, can't sleep well. I didn't know what should I do because my mom slept ad, don't want disturb her so I went to sleep, didn't have a nice sleep...

This morning I woke up as usual but I felt uncomfortable, my throat became very pain... and because of not enough sleep, so I told my mom about my situation and today don't want go to school. She then said will bring me to see doctor. I think it's better to rest in comfortable home than at school- noisy, smoky(near to factories) and naughty friends.

After see a doctor, I took medicine and then sleep. Now I feel better now, and may go to school ad tomorrow.
This few days my mom also falling in sick... she doesn't healthy as I getting grow up, year by year. I really hope she will get better as soon as possible~! T.T~


Medicine

m.c.

Today we're starting our new 'policy', don't know got anything happen or not. And today I didn't go to school, sure they'll think that I want to escape from it especially loon wern =.= but I'm not. Just now smsing with loon wern, he didn't sympathise my situation but said me ponteng class... Little monster!

And because of falling in sick my mood now become bad. Feel sad because mom feel unwell... Feel stress because I have a lots of work haven't done yet... Feel angry because didn't get any support but obstacles from friends~!

Let's hope I'll feel better so can back to normal life...

Diary of 11 September 2009~ Future, English, Revolution~!

Today is a last day of this study week. After recess we gained four periods free because there were no teacher or she want to do her own work in class. SWT~ I felt bored because nothing to do except chatting or actually is "arguing" with loon wern. I don't like revise study at school although the exam is around the corner...

That time guan yee showed us our co-cu reports and discussing about meeting of science society. well, I get high marks at club/society column but I started to upset because of other part. I totally desperated when loon wern counted out it (forget about it)... Now I'm worrying about future to study further. without grade A in cocu I definetely won't get scholarship which I want in future since subjects to be taken in SPM is limited and sure there will be a lots of 10 A's achievers. loon wern didn't soothe me but just irritating me. Ok fine, it's ordinary thing he did on me everytime.

Now I really feel emo now and fang kong-ing because realized that english will be most important language after I leave kwang hua. Why I didn't be active in cocu and in academic, I didn't put more effort in strengthing my foundation of english language. many many things were coming out in my mind that time. Urhhh...

Then khoon kheng who was busy for his own work asked me, "what is going on? If we're friends just tell me." sound like forcing me to tell.

"Just about my future" I said. "Your parents have given you so much money what for future..." loon wern interrupted us and I replied "I don't want touch those money." "my mom said she won't bother me and I must collect money myself for future study" Loon wern said again and I don't know how to said then.

Now we're entering september now and form 4 school life will be ended soon. I should plan and use the time left wisely for future before I regret.

I began to grumble that my english is very poor and want to do something to improve it. "I envy those who was born in english-speaking family and study in chinese school. They can cover both languages which valuable nowadays. when I communicating with family members, reading newspaper, chatting with classmates... all using chinese... haizzz" (anyway I still love chinese.)

"Your situation same with me. I also asked my mom before why my dad didn't speak english since we were young. but my mom said 'then why you didn't speak english to dad first '. no comment..." khoon kheng put his work aside and said.

"But you all must know that most of students just you said, dislike chinese." loon wern said. I agreed.

Then the chit-chat circle was hubbub by joining of ruiyun, chia voon and boon keong. we were discussing and giving opinion to improve our english level. My mood became better and forgot the trouble faced temporary when chit-chatting with them.

suddenly... "why don't we speak in engslih from now to practice?" everyone looked at me and I also don't know why the sentence came out from my mouth. Everyone then welcomed this useful policy especially loon wern because he can suan siao-ed me ad with english. But then everyone kept quiet including loon wern who always have many topic to chat, made the atmosphere weird. maybe it's weird when someone who always using chinese, but today talking english with you. lolx... and no much communicated using english, the bell rang ad and everyone said "bye" which no different in chinese, to each other. haha...

On saturday my dad asked me about want to continue subscribing Time, NG and Discovery magazines or not. I nodded my head after discussing with dad. Before that I told dad that stop subscribing because throughout of year just me reading only in my family and expensive too with paying RM 399 every year since last year starting to order. But dad said he's willingly to pay for my own good. Haha... thanks dad~!

Lastly, Gambathe for next week with new policy~!

2009年9月9日 晚上9时09分


99朵玫瑰~长长久久

今天不是什么大日子,但因为日期号码呈九九相依而成为有意义的一天。由于九与“久”同音,因此这一天许多新人为了讨个好意头而在今天定下婚约,希望两人相依相偎直到天荒地老,长长久久。回到校园,我祝福拥有校园恋爱的情侣能永浴爱河(很难的hor...),保温着纯纯的恋情,青春无敌!(讲到都有点遗憾......) 在此祝有情人终成眷属。

今天对我而言当然没什么意义,依然如往常般上下课。上午8时多,抡温、瑞云和我都相约在待会儿的9时09分时许个愿。敲钟了,这时已是9时10分,我通知他们时间过了…… 我们感叹可惜,不过抡温说他的腕表仍没到9时09分,我们也跟着倒数并许愿来安慰自己。嘻嘻...... 不过我说还有晚间的9时09分,到时大家再弥补这遗憾吧。

晚上9时09分,我为自己许个愿,我希望凡事都顺顺利利,好成果长久永存(虽然不可能);希望名字流芳百世;爱情呢,希望在未来的日子找到真爱时能长长久久,而另一伴是初恋情人,因为初恋是最难忘的恋爱,她保留了最初纯纯的爱~

在此祝福诸位过着平安的9月9日!

《偷书贼》(The Book Thief)



读了5天,终于在今天中午12时半以前读完了这本从学校图书馆借来的小说,一本字字含有意义的小说。

书名:《偷书贼》
作者:马克斯·苏萨克
页数:368页
字数:28万字
故事背景:第二次世界大战;德国贫民窟
叙述者视角:第一方 (死神)

内容简介:
9 岁小女孩莉赛尔和弟弟在战乱中被迫送到寄养家庭,但弟弟不幸死在旅途中,莉赛尔在弟弟冷清的丧礼后,她偷了一本掘墓工人的手册,为的是要纪念自己永远失去的家庭。
  寄养家庭位在慕尼黑凋蔽贫困的区域,大人彼此仇恨咒骂,老师狠毒无情,战火时时威胁人命。莉赛尔每晚抱着掘墓工人手册入睡,恶梦不断。养父为了让她安眠,于是为她朗诵手册内容,并开始教她识字。
  学会认字进而开始读书的莉赛尔,尽管生活艰苦,吃不饱穿不暖,却发现了一项比食物更让她难以抗拒的东西——书,她忍不住开始偷书,用偷来的书继续学习认字。从此莉赛尔进入了文字的奇妙世界,让她熬过了现实的苦难,也不可思议地帮助了周围同样承受苦难的人:读书给躲在养父家地下室的犹太人听,在空袭时为躲入防空洞中的街坊邻居朗读故事,安慰了每颗惶惶不安的心,潜移默化改变了原本粗鄙的性情。

莉赛尔逐渐长大,也过了她平淡但精彩的童年:与其他男生踢球;与好朋友鲁迪常在一块儿、偷东西。
  对照着战场上万人之间的争夺残杀,莉赛尔藉由阅读与文字所散发的力量,让死神惊讶地睁大了眼睛,一面收取战场上的灵魂,一面思索人性的深奥:为什么人类一面展现残酷的杀戮,一面又有发自内心的关爱呢?

战争接近尾声,敌方空军向他们进行轰炸,结果莉赛尔身边的亲友的灵魂都被死神掠走了,只有她因当时在地下室而幸免于灾难......
  多年以后,死神前去迎接莉赛尔的灵魂。死神坐在喧嚣的大马路旁,忍不住感叹道:“人哪!人性萦绕我的心头不去!人性怎能同时间如此光明,又如此邪恶!”


读后感:
我对作者以细腻的写作手法描绘出主人翁莉赛尔在二战期间经历的种种事务感到钦佩,虽然莉赛尔尚小,但她却以纯真的心过着战火连天的年代。作者描写的背景,在我阅读的当儿想像了其背景,让我对此小说有更深的印象。

由于此小说以平民的角度叙述二战历史,深深吸引了喜爱阅读历史的我。作者在小说中讽刺当时德国本土对于法西斯主义(fascism)和希特勒“元首”(Adolf Hitler) 统治的绝对服从和狂热追捧,以及揭发战争的祸害,包括对犹太族(the Jews)的屠杀。这本书以死神的角度探视人类残酷的本性,揭发愚蠢狂热的人类本性。

师生之争~


Serojak ~

我最憎有保守思想的人。他们不会与时并进,只会忠于自己想法,虽然他的想法完全与理论相反。

今天经过悠闲的两节课后,道德节来了。对于还没交folio的学生,各个无奈摇头,像死刑犯准备接收老师的处分,虽然心中有百般不愿...... 如大家所料,karipap老师严肃地叫昨天没承交folio的学生罚站,原以为只是训话......

结果平地一声雷,karipap老师手高举PSP扣分记录书,要“赐”2分给这些学生。大马行情就是这样,老师在课堂最大,学生只好乖乖就范。我也是局中人,我深感无奈及愧疚:无奈老师采取的强硬态度;愧疚自己怪老师的错。我们排队受刑,报上身份证号码,签下名,留了污点。karipap老师就这样夺走我的第一次!幸免的学生不语地观察局势,眼神是同情、事不关己,抑或是幸灾乐祸。

事成后,我回座位。一阵风平浪静,这时前处发生骚动......

涉案人:保守主义者阿瀚与karipap老师
地点 :巴生光华国中4S1班老师座位
时间 :约上午9时20分
导火线:阿瀚因不满老师对其“伤害自尊”&担心前途
目击者:45名4S1同学&德国朋友

事情经过
阿瀚在未受刑时暗中对老师抱怨,轮到他时,由于强烈自尊及相信是担心污点影响前途而拒签,并向老师解释理由。理由是“相机已经坏了,无法拍照完成作业”。老师不满他的理由,举出“我已给你们6个月时间的准备”王牌,并对他“半年时间内相机没修好”感到费解,以问某学生如何解决他说“借学生的”讽刺他强词夺理。

局势发展
阿瀚为了捍卫自己的人权,不断与老师争执。结果karipap越来越辣,责问他的行为。形势陷入僵局,课堂上笼罩着诡异的气氛,连几个叽咋学生异常静了下来。而我没理会它。

结局
阿瀚虽心有不甘,但词穷,硬着头皮签下名。接下来学生也签上大名,包括另一名针对此事评论的抡温。(请浏览http://tanloonwern.blogspot.com/2009/09/4s1-buzz-pen-is-mightier-than-sword.html#comments)

后续发展&意见

(当事人)
阿瀚气呼呼回座位,无辜的计算机成为出气筒。根据其邻居的说词,他直骂karipap老师“做么S酱就扣分的” “我一定会跟她争到底” “他以为它是警察啊?!酱写我们的IC” 等等火星语。karipap老师事后也发表意见:“我对你们朋友的行为感到失望及不满......” “说什么我不理智(irrational)”话中明显地影射阿瀚。他们的斥责一个在明,一个在暗,完全没有交锋。

(同学)
大家都对此事议论纷纷。下课时我班男生在食堂聊起此事,有不满karipap老师,也有嘲笑阿瀚的无知。虽然此事乃小事,相信其他班级的学生将知道。而抡温买currypuff来吃 (打小人的另一种方式?)


咖哩角~ 好吃~!

(本人)
对于此事,虽然karipap老师的做法令人发指,但大家只能敢怒不敢言。另外,我无法苟同阿瀚的做法。身为4S1班的学生,遭到扣分处置乃天下大事,不过得尊师重道呀。他无知的做法只让我觉得他没有“礼义廉耻”中的“耻”。所谓“无羞恶之心,非人也”!

Last day for 10-days holiday



Yesterday was 52nd Independence Day of Peninsular of Malaysia
"Merdeka~!" I love Malaysia although she still has a lots of problems.
so we'd one more holiday and
father took us to KLCC to visit BookFest '09
again it was 2nd times I visit there

It was different with other day I came
because of the last day,
many book distributors gave offers for clearance
it's worth visiting there at last day for bibliophiles~!
Since I'd bought many books from China-Taiwan-Hong Kong Pavilion
yesterday I just bought malaysian-publishing books
I think it's better I read local chinese books first
because non-local one are too difficult to understand
I mean learning something step by step and knowing
from "internal"(our own) to "external"(other 'culture')


Among 7 books, 5 books are about political criticism :
Authored States: Musings of Jama by Jamaluddin Ibrahim《迦玛笔下》 RM20
Political Fables by Tay Tian Yan RM23
Standing on the Cliff (Chinese version) 《站在悬崖上》RM 23
Standing on the Cliff (English version) = FREE
Mahathir's Selected Letters to World Leaders RM18.90

Literature book:
《此物最相思》by 张曼娟 RM 17.60
《长短调》by 朵拉 RM20

Discount RM5.00
Total = RM 117.50 only~
My favourites~!

At the other side my family members attend to listen the talk organized by Tzu Chi
I didn't attend there but what I know is the atmosphere was occupied with harmony
and many people donated money to 88 Taiwan typhoon after the talk
my mom bought two books from there, RM 36
静、思、语~!

I was thinking that I'd visit all sections of book fair ad
so I window-shopped in KLCC mall
I came to Kinokuniya bookshop which is only one at Malaysia~


inside Kinokuniya ~

I felt nothing special inside because its decoration and
atmosphere are same like other bookshops
but then I was attracted when I entered Japanese part~!
There are many japanese books and photobooks arranged at racks
although I don't know about japanese but I was excited
because I love Japan so muchhh~!
There were japanese also choosing the books
I decide I want to learn japanese if have chance.
Must~!
On 5.00pm we came back from KL to Klang
the parking fee was RM16.50 and met traffic jam~!
spoilt my mood...
Anyway, I was enjoying the last day of holidays~
