Cause your so hypnotising, you got me laughing while I sing.... ;X
But I don't see myself marrying a shorter guy because I practically live in heels, except for school at least.I'm super serious, once, I even shovelled tanah hitam with my beloved heels because that time,I didn't own any flats whatsoever... Yes, not even a selipar jepun. But now I'm a proud owner of 2 sandals, oh yeah.
Before I forget, I give all my condolences to Uncle Kwan and his children Jonathan, Joanna and Josephine for the passing of their wife/mother, Aunty Ivy. I'm sure that Aunty Ivy is in a better place now.Remember the way that Pastor Fred put it, it's not goodbye because you will meet again in heaven. Don't forget God and that will surely happen.
Woah, when a death happens to someone, even if they are not close to you,it puts a lot of things in perspective doesn't it? Mummy keep on asking us what would happen if she was to die now. Of course I told her not to say that again but Jacob (my youngest bro) said "saya tidak mau mummy pergi" and proceeds to lay his head on her chest. So sweet man that kid, but no mummy, I don't want another brother or sister again, so stop asking me if I want you to breed again, you're not a rabbit and you're too old, and I mean that in the nicest way possible.
However, my real answer would be that I cannot imagine life without you because I don't think sixteen years is enough time to spend together. In an ideal world, I would like all of us to go into eternity together so that no one is left behind, having to be burdened by the feeling of sadness and abandoned.But I know that it is too much too ask. And if you were to go now, I would like you to know that there is still so many things I havent't ask for forgiveness for, about stuff you know and don't know. So much more secrets to tell, so many experience to go through together. I'm not ready to lose you yet, and I don't think I'll ever be.
Love is like playing the piano. First you must learn to play by the rules, then you must forget the rules and play from your heart.

The trouble with the rat race is that even if you win you're still a rat
What else, oh yeah, I also found out my dearest Add M3 teacher who tirelessly teach me and patiently answers my stupid and random questions punya Chinese name. Get this, it's Tan AH KAU (Ah Kau is Chinese for dog,lol.). That's kinda funny of his parents, maybe when I have kids I will name them with an embarassing name to make them suffer, hehe.
Speaking of studyin, all 4 ST students are required to go to school to finish some aktiviti for Kemerdekaan which is to paint the kain rentang. So far so good, but I didn't help one bit with the painting. Probably because there were to many people already doing it and you know, too many hands spoil the broth, or in this case the kain rentang so I'll paint tommorow okay, Andy you have my word. It's nice meeting friends and just talk and kacau their handphones and stuff. Saw some Form Five students as well who came to school for their kelas tambahan. I didn't know that our school allows students to wear their normal baju for kelas tambahan. Does it only happen in Convent ? OMG, so many questions lar dis school brings up in me, or is it just me ? Nah..

Mirabel or Me Rebel (hmmmm)
Wow, it has been a very long time since I updated my blog. Reason is :
1. I'm lazy
2. I procrastinate
3. Everytime I rajin already, sum1 else go and use da laptop (ie. mummmy, daddy, 3 ekor budak lelaki who somehow share the same DNA as I do)
4. I'd rather go to fanfiction or youtube
5. I sometimes worry if I write stuff down I might actually realize my life is quite boring :(
So, does anyone have a cure for emo-ness ? I think I'll probably need it for the next 2 years of my life. I'm so not motivated to got to school, to study, and all those right now. Who does that anyway? Ewww.....
By the way, all those time I spent away from blogging, surprisingly quite a lot of interesting stuff happened in my life. Let's see, first of all I went to Kem Perdana. It was quite good except the Landay incident. To know more, just go and read at landay's blog, interesting that.
After that, finally got my result lar...
BM: 93
BI: 98
M3: 100 (13 other people in my class got the same marks so it kinda lose it's novelty)
ADD M3: 74 (lowest marks ever, *sobs*)
PHY: 56 (i hate this subject anyway and surprisingly my marks got 2nd highest, weird... )
CHEM:81(Yay, highest! Finally)
BIO: 75 (Bervert got 90, what a nerd.... No bah, you smart bah)
SEJ: 86 (happy lar juga but sum1 got 98, *coughs* Mimi *coughs*)
PM: 59 (No one ever seems to score Moral in our class anyway, so whateves lar... What are the chance that Moral can be excluded from the compulsary subjects in Spm by 2010? None ? Thought so.....)
LIT: 76 (I quit this paper 25 minutes before the time and I immediately pass up to teacher... Seriously, my brain just shut down, Is it a medical condition? I shall name it as MABES, or Mentally Abused By Exam Stress.... Wow, I should get a Nobel Prize for that !)
Verdict : Reading back what I wrote, I kinda realize how ungrateful I sound. I mean it's not that my results are THAT bad (except: Phy, PM and Add M3), it's just not THAT great.... Whateves lar, I guess it's kinda fair considering I spend zero amount of time on homework and studies... I have so much to be grateful for, at least I haven't failed once, right, right ???
Of course, the most recent "event" that happened was I went to this Australian Education Fair organized by IDP. The time was kinda weird because it only lasted 4 hours but the good thing is it is organized at Le Meridien. There were a lot of universities that had an exhibition there,namely:
- Taylors College (Australia Branch, who knew Taylors College from there, I thought i was Malaysia punya.... Wow, I'm really that outdated huh ?
- Monash University
- University of Tasmania
- University of New South Wales
- University of Adelaide
And a lot more (too malas to write). The best thing about this fair is that 90% of the fair is actually conducted by Australians themselves and not some Malaysian representative of that particular University. It was very enlightening and I'm seriously thinking of taking my Medicine course there. The downside, a very conservative calculation done on my part taking into account that the inflation rate for university fees is around 4%-7% a year, my parents would most likely have to fork out RM1.2 million alone on the fees. This is excluding the money that I will spend on accommodation, food and uilitis, etc.... Ouch !!!
There was these 1 incident that is most memorable there. I went to the University of Tasmania booth and this was what happened
me dad UTAS guy
Hi, I'm here to enquire about the Medicine course in this University
When will you get you A-levels results?
*taken aback*Well, I'm only in Form 4 this year so.....
But when are you going to get your A-levels results?
I hard for me to tell you exactly because I'm not sure which intake date will I choose to follow....
So are you saying that you don't know
*looks at dad for help*
*blurrrrr*
Well, maybe sometime in 2012
when of 2012 ?
..................
Do you know that most people apply for a medicine course a year before the course actually starts ?
A year ! Are you like, serious ?!
*rolls eyes* What do you expect? I can see that this would not go anywhere so I'll just ask her (some random local career counselor) for the exact month, ok *rolls eyes for dramatic effect again*
Freak, should have known he was a bad guy from his bald head....... Speaking of the devil.....
*comes back* Which A-levels will you take, the 1 and 1/2 years or 2 years duration ?
the 1 1/2 year one
You will get your results in August. *evil smirk* Do you know that the deadline is in June ?
So you mean that I have to wait one more year to apply? No !!!!!!!!
No, you just have to send your application first plus your reasons for giving your results late and as soon as you get the results, you can immediately send it to us.
boringboringboring
So, what is the quota for International Students for a medical course in UTAS ?
We take 20
Only?
For you information, that's the normal intake for most universities here.
Oh, okay..... But how many Malaysians are usually selected out of this 20 people?
Here in UTAS, we are not racist, as long as you are not an Australian or a Permanent Resident, you are an international student.
I didn't mean to say that UTAS are racist but....
But you kind of implied it
*terdiam seketika*
So I have to say that medical students in UTAS are the happiest medical students around because the enviroment.......
boringboringboringEND
Anyone who knows me would know that I really get scared or nervous when it comes to talking and asking questions but I have to say that the interview left me scarred and it didn't help that daddy dear didn't stand up for me. Come on la bah daddy, that b*tch in a man's body just called your daughter a racist in front of your face, can't you like like say something like "me, my money and my darling adorable daughter are out of here. Good luck keeping your job when your employers hear from me ! *snap* "
So that was basically how my time has gone pass so far. what else do people say when they want to end their blog anyway? Sorry bah, I'm still a novice... Erm, hope you enjoy reading my not very enjoyable blog and just comment k. Ok, that wasn't so lame, right? Whateves, I'm a freak.

Then Tawau Went Away With the Prize, and This Sucks
I don't want to bother you with all the stories involving the challenge to go Lahad Datu itself. All I can say is it involved a lot of tears (on my part). Thank you so much my dearest mummy for being so generous with the plane tickets. I love you :)
I made a lot of friends especially from Keningau, Tambunan, Beaufort, Lahad Datu and Penampang. Tawau was quite nice as well. Sandakan on the other hand look quite intimidating but he actually cracked a smile later into the competition. Anyways, i never thought the impromptu speecH this year would be quite stale which is TECHNOLOGY MAKES LIFE BETTER . I didn't do as well as others but I late found out they did a debate topic on this in the state level competition and it was quite recent. That is why a lot of them did very well, apart from them being very good and experienced. One more thing, apparently a lot of districts have no competition which is why they immediately compete in the state level. That made me a little jealous because in kk, you can work your ass off training and researching and that does not even guarantee a win in anything.
So here are the list of winners
1st place : Tawau
2nd place : Keningau
3rd place : Lahad Datu
I have to say something though. Keningau was the 8th to speak, Lahad Datu was the 10th to speak and Tawau was the 11th to speak. Wanna guess who was the 9th ? YOURS FREAKING TRUELY.... That sucks right, i know :(
Anyways i have to say congratulations to all the winners and you guys deserved it. One thing that makes me happy though. My district trophy is way bigger that the trophy at the state level, so thats kinda like a way for me to be happy about losing, kinda....
Now, I have nothing in the way of my studies and that is something i can excel in as long as I work really hard.... Going back to school will definitely be weirder but hey, it's like nearing the end of the year and SPM is closer than anyone can imagine....
Speaking of test, I have to say my results kinda disappoint me so far.... I will reveal later but first this is my comment on the test
BM : Quite easy, but scoring for it is another matter
BI : Also very easy
M3 : The easiest of them all (chapter 6 only keluar, wat you expect)
CHEM : Crap most of it
BIO : All i study, x kuar, yg i x study pula, all keluar (Sucks to the max!)
PHY : I hate this subjet 1st and foremost and never motivated to study it anyway... So yeah,sucks
SEJ: Chapter 5 &6 is not my fav chapter, probably fail (and i never got less than 84)
ADD M3: To me quite okay, but a few mistakes
ENG. LITERATURE: HAHA, DIDN`T DO IT... i skip because just finish PB competition :P
P/MORAL: Quite tough, we'll see good or not the results
Wow, my stress level really went down after writing this... I don't really care if no one's reading because I really feel better after writing my feelings down.... I might even like bloggin now, so not gonna quit, yet...
I guess it's my cue to stop, so just comment or whatever k ?!

Public Speaking (Da real 1)
Back to the main thing. So, I didn't hafal my whole script because my mum told me that it is a public speaking competition and not a public hafaling the script that you have competition. I honestly just wanted to get the whole thing over and done with and i did not expect anything out of it but to gain some experience and also make new friends (which i did). So I went to school and ask teacher Rosmah to tocang lekat my haircuz if i do kan, gelembung-gelembung that. After that, i went and see teacher aini because she was the one who is suppose to take me to the competition but apparently, Pn. Pang wanted her to stay for some blood donation drive at our school. I really felt like anak terpinggir because no one wants to send me until the awesome teacher Siska agreed to accompany me.
During the part where we have to draw our number, this guy, Adam from Sanzac strike up a conversation with mua. So we had fun talking and one of those stuff was about how we don't want to be the 1st or the last to present our speech. Our wish came true bacause Adam was the 5th to present and i was the 8th (nice number!).
I know what people say about how you should psyche yourself up before a competition but honestly the only thing i did was talk, talk and talk, up till it was my turn to speak. In my opinion, i did pretty well during my prepared speech but honestly, i have to say Sean from La Salle did it the best. He even did some locking thingy during his speech because it was about the hip hop culture.
Then the dreaded moment arrive. The impromptu speech. Wanna know how did i prepare ?
If it was (insert topic), i would say:
- H1N1
H1N1 is swine flu. Repeat after me, SWINEEEEEEEEEEEE......
- 1Malaysia
In my opinion, the 1Malaysia slogan is only a political gimmick by our Most Horrible, I mean Honourable Prime Minister, Dato Seri' Najib something........ I doubt he even knows the specific definition for that particular slogan of his.
And i think i stop preparing after that..... Sad, kan ?
When I was in the quarantine room (haha, swine flu comes to mind) for the impromptu speech, I got the shock of my life when i found out the topic would be WHAT IS SAFE SEX?
I know, it was the longest four minutes ever to write a three minute speech (yes, that is the format for the impromptu speech). When the time ended, I only got the definition ready. It was the most ackward speech ever, explaining what safe sex is exactly. Most of the guys went high I guess cuz they're definitions are like rated 18 and above....
Anyways, at the end of the competition, I was quite confident on nabbing at least a place because i know my impromptu speech was done quite nicely. But having said that, I never expected to win ! Me, the one who didn't even have enough time to prepare for everything, only a few people know how i was suffering deep down inside but i believe God saw my hard work and he rewarded me accordingly :) Let's not forget the other awesome winners which is...
1st runner up : Sean (La Salle)
2nd runner up : Kieran (Maktab Sabah)
You guys are awesome and honestly i had one of the best competitions in my life. We broke the unwritten rule where we are somehow suppose to wish others to fail. Instead, we had a lot of fun talkin to one another and it will be an experience i will treasure, trust me.
The trophy is so big but i am setting my sights to win the state level competition in Lahad Datu (i'll blog about it later...). Don't worry teachers, i might not be your 1st or 2nd choice to join this competition but i promise that i will do my best for God, myself and the school. I can't guarantee anything else, but hopefully it will be enough.
p/s : the competition will be on the 21st and 22nd of July... Wish me Luck
xoxo

Public Speaking Freaking Postponed !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway, on Wednesday, I was all prepared for the competition when it was revealed that the competition was postponed.... POSTPONED!!!!!!!!!!!
I know it is a good thing, but can't they tell me earlier, like, i dun know, before the day of the competition ?! It would have saved me a lot of nerve, tears and breakdowns..... Not only that, the letter that said it was postponed was actually received by the school on the 4th, but the "staff" conveniently forgot about it......
Thank God the little amount of self control i have was enough to hold me bact from strangling someone........
Just a thought..................

Law Olympiad
Frankly, i only went because i didn't want to attend teacher wong's class (she's a trainee teacher who gives homework like crazy and her deadlines is like the next day....). She's a nice person but sometimes humans can last only last so long listening to high pitch, high frequency voice.....
When we first arrive, the feeling i got was, was, how do i put it ? Fine, stephy put it the best, I FELT POOR ! We felt that way because while waiting for our teacher in charge to arrive, this group of Tsung Tsin girls walk around with their head held high with the type of strut that suggest them reciting mentally I'M RICH, I'M RICH.... Stephy's words, but she summed my thoughts exactly....
I was kinda disappointed because Tsung Tsin are kinda lacking in the hot guys department, but i digress....
So the first game was very nice because it requires you to find the murderer in three separate cases, so you're basically the detective. Our group of five people separated into Andrea and Eileen who worked on the 1st case, Sam and Mimi on the second case and i was the loopholer... The strategy kinda backfired because we didn't have time to finish the third case because the first two cases was kinda tough. I ended up doing the third case myself in the last two minutes and i only had time to name some random character as the culprit..... I don't know why but the Help U people thought that it is fun to mess with our brains because they told us the answer right after that... It turned out all three cases that we did, we got right :)
The rest of the competition went well and after the game is over, we had lunch at the school's canteen. OMG, so huge the place, like shopping mall !!!! two storey's again that, sakai trus dis... Apa boleh buat, Convent's canteen is like a quarter of that school's canteen... They serve us so much food that we weren't able to finish it... and being one of the responsible one's (ehem!), i offered to keep the dirty dishes at the designated area... The dustbins there are one of those that needs to be opened by steppin on the foot pedal, so i wanted to throw some food scraps when the smartass guy who was steppin on the pedal suddenly released it, causing the penutup dustbin to fall directly on my hand .... EWWW!!!!!!!
When it was time for the results to be announced, 3rd place with the RM300 prize went to Lok Yuk Team A (da smartass punya team lagi dat....), 2nd place with the RM750 prize went to Tsung Tsin Team B and the first place (RM 1500 !!!!) went to Tsung Tsin Team D.... Congrats to all the winners ! Need help spending the money ?
Although we did not win AKA lost, i was very happy cuz i cannot think of a better team to participate with. Having said that, next time, please lar Tsung Tsin, make the comp. a fair one... The rules clearly stated only TWO teams per school yet you guys sent five... I know lar bah so many people smart smart there, but don't close of chances to other schools to at least get a place okay! And no, I'm not a Sore Loser!*sulks*

My Probable Future
So, today i was surfing the net thinking what i want to do with my life after SPM... I know some people would say that SPM is still a year and half away but you know what, i remember saying something like that when i was in form 2 about PMR and look where i am right now... A Form 4 student who is juggling 11 subjects(all yg got subjektif again dat !)...
Time flies so fast dat in no time i'm probably married with kids, TEEHEE ! Well, people keep on telling me that i should be a lawyer because of my talkative nature but i don't think that is something that i want to do as a career... I'll probably become a doctor, hopefully an oncologist (to those who don't know, it means a cancer specialist...)
Let me just state the reason why i choose this profession
- It's a job with one of the best prospects around. Let me ask you, which country has an optimum number of doctors in the world ? You most probable answer would the US, England, Singapore or Australia right ? Well actually, there are no countries in the world that have an optimum number of doctors... YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT
- This job is also recession-proof. Regardless of the economy, people still get sick. In today's economy, people don't want to waste money on unnecessary things like branded clothes, eating out, and companies around the world are laying off people like disposable tissues. However, you don't see that happening to doctors rite...
- It is a very challenging yet rewarding job. Personally, i thrive on challenge to become successful. I don't want to get stuck with a desk-bound job writing reports, getting scolded by the boss, kiss the client's ass and so on... I'd rather be that someone who saves a father's life, prolonging someone's life so that they can make up for lost times with their family or even something simple like bandaging a playful kid's leg after they sprained it :)
- People look up to you more. The doctor profession is very respectable. Regardless of what people say, other's opinion does matter.
- And last but not least, the pay is very good. When i have a family, I want to be able to provide for my family as well as myself. I don't to be the type of person who depend on others to get through life.
Having said that, being a doctor has it's drawbacks as well. Here to me are some of them.
- The studying time it takes to become a doctor. I have done my research and i discover that the fastest time to become a fully certified doctor is to 6 years and that is only in England. In the US, it takes around 8 years because there, it is all about obtaining credits. Other countries take roughly around 7-8 years as well.
- The money it takes to futher my studies in that field. More time taken to do a course= More money needed. Not only is the course fees cost around 30% MORE PER SEMESTER, the semesters are more as well. Scholarship is definitely an option, but it is very difficult to obtain and they usually come with a bond to return and work for the nation (i plan to stay overseas because my horizon will surely be wide there.)
- The immense responsibility that comes with the job. As a doctor, people's life will be at your hands. Surely surgeries will have it share of mortality. Sometime,a diagnosis can be wrong as well which can cause someone money, emotional problems and sometimes even their lives. As a doctor, you have to be strong enough to overcome the emotional attachment that comes with it.
- A doctor generally have to be on call 24/7 in case there is an emergency. It might get in the way of the time spent with the family.
Anyways, i think that about sums it up.... I haven't been able to tell my friends my URL yet cuz i kinda forgot (what kind of person does that anyway, oh yeah someone whose URL is not rememberable). Before, my URL is kiss-a-bunny.blogspot.com but i changed it to annoyingmisfit.blogspot.com cuz that's my blog's name so i can remember and tell it to everyone, hehe....
What's the point of having a blog if no one's reading it anyway, so yeah if you are a friend or someone i don't know but you happen to stumble unto my blog, just comment, follow or whatever else that makes me feel loved okay :)
