Happy holiday

I came back to my house at around 8pm in the evening. It was a nice and cosy place to live in. I think this is a perfect place for my parents to live when they are all retired: quiet, clean, the supermarket is nearby... I shall invite my friends to come by someday. My schedule now is quite tight. I can hardly breathe. ac ac. I am suffocating :)). 

I visited my grandparents yesterday. They are all well and happy. It is getting slightly colder these recent days. However, I can't help but noticing that wearing long pants with long-sleeved shirt is burning me. So i always end up putting on t-shirt, long pants, slippers with no socks. I feel so comfortable to be home again. But usually I will go out with my gf tomorrow but this time it is not possible. Haizzz. 6 more months to go. 

Let's talk about something else. My parents invited a Hungarian couple out for a lunch. To return their favor, I invited my cousin to have lunch with me and my parents. We enjoyed the meal slowly and went out of the restaurant with a full and firm stomach. We joked around about our future: " If our family can invite each other out for this kind of luxurious dinner sometimes, it means we are earning big money". haha. Now I still wonder and admire the way my parents get the money. I am proud of them and I won't hesitate to tell everyone that I have successful parents.  Unfortunately, there will obviously more burden on my shoulders and pressure on my chest: to be at least as good as them. haha

I went back to my old secondary school yesterday. It was some kind of a prom, but for the teachers only. Yup. You know what I'm talking about. TEACHER'S DAY CELEBRATION. The schoolyard was filled with tables and chairs. Beers, cakes and flowered displayed on the each tables magnificently. The stunningly long wire of colored lightbulb was hung from trees to trees, reminding me of Christmas. Everyone dressed nicely and formally. All of the sudden, all the teachers seemed to come to school with a young face and worry-free mind. 

I dressed quite formally. The fact that I put on a pair of leather shoes already drew a picture of how formal I was yesterday. Black pants, white shirts. Typical for a students. Actually my cousin would perform there in the evening so I wanted to go there to see how confident he was (As the matter of fact, he stood at the back, covered by his big classmate - unknown gender - lip-synched... =.= ). I met a few teachers. I was surprised that they remembered me. Oh. I met an student alumnus who graduated 7 years ago. He works for construction company. It was nice to meet him. It was a great chance for me to network. I also ran into a German man. He said he lived in the hotel nearby and he got curious by the noise coming from my school. So he went inside and took a few pictures (I noticed he only took pictures of girls ^.~. My observation might be wrong. Hopefully). Anyway, he lived in a town 80km from Frankfurt, to the south. He went to Hanoi to work in a 10-day course. So yesterday I met 2 people who I did not know. Quite fun. You made yourself happy when no one you know was around :)). haha

I just update about my past couple of days. Hope everyone is still well. I am waiting for my gf to come online now. Damn it. where is she? 

See you soon

Saturday 01/11

I got up at 7am in the morning to have my usual breakfast. It was raining heavily. Actually this morning i woke up not because of the irritator cell phone but because of the rain. It actually wetted my face. Damn. I almost suffocated. (jk). Anyway, I headed to the dining hall, took a few loaves of bread, a cup of milo and enjoyed sitting under the rain-free hall. I always liked the feeling of sitting in a closed and cosy room and stared at the window that was heavily hit by the raindrops. The water dribbled on the glass surface reminded me of a person who skied. It was slightly chilling this morning. Love it.

Then I went to school for ISL meeting. It took the entire morning. Not much to mention about except for some personal reflections on the way back home. I wish I could be pushed into a situation that I had to work harder and had a chance to really take charge of something. I know it is not easy to gain trust from people and even more troublesome to handle a real work. Nonetheless, I have a tendency to be stone around those who are active. I have no idea why but it seems difficult to come up with an idea or think of anything else to do. Haizzz. All of the sudden, I think these things are of paramount importance in term of shaping a real independent man. I don't want to be a man who have to rely on anybody (this is different from working in a group and in a team). Just imagine how can I be a good husband when everything I have to call my wife and I can't even make a decision for my family. I seriously don't want to be that kind of man. This not only applies to family but workplace as well. Dude! Imagine you are a one who receive order and carry out insignificant works. Nope. Sorry but it is not me. I want more than that. At least I can support my family. Lesson learnt: family comes first ( I got this idea from a movie. Please don't laugh at this. It struck me really hard in my heart).

ok, let's just get rid of these thoughts. This is a result of having nothing to do and no earphone to listen to my iPod. Let's move on. Today Hieu left. Quite sad. Just imagine when Quyen and Minh go for OBS. The room will be so empty and I can't hear any lame stuffs from Hieu. I miss it. Next week it will be hard for us to have the kind of gathering that lasted till early morning or playing games together. Oh. Talk  about gathering. I remember yesterday when we played cards. I dont know but I have a strange feeling that I am suck at everything. i mean there should be something that I am best at among my friends but I found none. Sport: dont talk about it. I ain't good at anything, I just like playing sport. Study: whoa, are you kidding me? let me think of something else. Work: erhhhh... Games: I suckkkkk. seriously, is there anything on this Earth that i can be proud of myself. Minesweepers? oh, come on, you gotta be kidding me. :)). However, it may sound negative but i ain't that kind of person. I will learn to become better. It takes time. Everyone has to go through the same process. It is only about when you start doing it ;). I am clearly positive about it. (oh, can someone give me a hug :(( ). 

I am chatting with my gf now. 

Enough for reflection. Things will get better.

Sleep tight, everyone

Dont let the bed bugs bite.

happy day

I woke up with my eyes still sticked together when my alarm clock struck at 6.45 am. As usual, I turned it off, gazed to the view beyond the windowpane. Everything was dyed with a strange blue color and it did have an effect on pulling down my mood. I knew all along that IP2 would be ended soon but it moved so fast that I did not even able to grasp much. I left my bed and reached for my uniform hung on the chair. As I got my hand on the uniform shirt, I suddenly realized that I was not going to touch it for a long time. Leaving those thoughts behind, I put it on and went to the bathroom and started my day.

I got my GPA today. When ms Yang said she would return the GPA' s sheet to everyone, my heart humped vigorously in my chest. Even though I already did some calculations about but I was still scared that my real mark was below my expectation. If that happened, I would be greatly disappointed. My name was called. I caught a site of the green paper. oh, so it was as I expected, even higher. 4.12 for semester 2 and 3.82 overall. The only thing that I was proud of myself was that if I did not calculate wrongly or in other word, I did not make a seriously big mistake in calculation, I was in top 5 of the cohort for semester 2 ONLY. It was not something that was announced publicly but it was worth a pat on my shoulder wasn't it? I would start throwing away unnecessary thing soon. I really needed to learn how to get my stuff neat and tidy. 

I went out for lunch with a couple of friends - close friends. Bukit Timah foodcourt. I had to admit that i sucked at choosing food in a foodcourt. I could never get a dish that satisfied me. The carrot cake dish was as good as hell. I really made me throw up. It tasted like feet. LESSON learnt: always go with someone to pick up a dish when you are in a food court. I must remember this. But the sugar cane juice was not so bad. It tasted as heaven ( the word "heaven" made me think of Green tea "heaven and earth", which I begged to differ. It should be "hell and nothing else" ). But i loved the part when we wandered around in between the buildings. Lots of jokes came up, i did not manage to remember one. At 1.15, I hit the school, waited for my CCA.

CCA was awesome. I made some jokes. Captain ball was fun (expect for that fact that my finger got hurt. It now looks like a smaller-in-length middle finger). I could not even type with that finger anymore. It was always fun to come down for CCA. 

Today i had a long chat with Hieu and Daisy. It was comfortable and really interesting. I could not recall about what we talked but it was fascinating enough to not get me off the chair. 

I will watch "friends" and read some books today. Nothing can't stop me from doing that. I love today and I would love to record it down in this blog. catch everyone later.

P.S during assembly today, most of the people shrugged. I was glad. 

Finally....

Today is the unofficial last lesson of IP life. There will be no more lessons except for returning the papers, having some hell kinds of lecture about Subject combination and preparing for the Open Day. Technically we won't be "taught" till next year. A sigh of relief and a pat on the shoulder would be a pleasant gift for yourself. 

Congratulate everyone for finishing the assessment week.

Let's talk about today.

The bio paper wasn't so difficult but the questions came up were not as I expected. It took me about three quarters of the time to finish. As I looked up, some had already laid their faces on the plastic table. Everything ended with the usual phrase "stop writing..." . It was strange that the class did not make any attempt to scream or shout or even just a normal "who hoo!". Anyway, though there is one more paper for me but let us call it a day.

Oh, i just remember, my junior today approached me with a smiling face and said "h5, assessment week is over". I replied calmly "well, my IP2 is over"...

After the waate-of=time talk in LT3, we got a class outing. At first i did not really want to go because they would probably go shopping and having lunch while there was another group of guys going for LAN. Quite tempting to be honest. But well, I decided to make up my mind and went for the outing because IP05 was not something that I dislike. 

It started with a lunch at a damn expensive place. I was quite pissed because i preferred food court where the price was cheaper and the food was even much nicer. So I ended up having an egg sandwich and I forced myself to drink lots of water to cover for the hunger that drove me crazy in my stomach. Suddenly it rained. Big enough to make myself wet in few seconds. While waiting for the rain to stop, we had a glance at some music CDs at HVM. I listened to the "Mama mia's soundtrack". They were all ABBA songs. I loved it. It helped me feel better and be less frustrated. 

Here come the movie. "Eagle eye". Advertisement said " in cinema Oct 1". Today was 30th Sep. 

Oh wait, before we watched the movie, we had a lot of fun playing arcade and 1 round of pool. Leonard was so serious in playing pool. I enjoyed it and due to some once-in-a-lifetime luck, every time I hit the ball, I scored. Did not miss any single shot. Quite amazed. Love it...

The movie started with a cup of coke next to my lap and a big chunk of popcorn (short form "porn") on my hand. I did not eat much but Leonard and Hieu kept telling me not to give it to them or they would finish it way before the movie started. During the movie, I transformed into a bridge which transported the popcorn from Hieu and Leo and from Leo to Hieu. The movie was great. It talked about a man-made machine which was able to think controlled over the entire America and every single electronic system in the country for example phone line, internet, computer. Even the Pentagon was monitored by it. The machine did not make any single mistakes in calculation and executing the plan. Great movie for this weekend. Everyone should have a look at it.

After getting back from the fiction, we walked to wisma atria to "HAVE DINNER". I was so angry with the way people went out for an outing. Hieu told me that at the end of the day, all of them did not dare to talk to me. They had to tell Hieu to tell me that they wanted to say goodbye and thanked for coming. I did not know about it but I was really frustrated. By the way, sorry for that. There are certain things I can't control. 

Sincerely apologize for my behavior. It was not a good thing to do. Hope I did not ruin everyone's day.

Just finished having a big bowl of rice with fish. 

Happy holiday and congratulate for finishing the exam.

Have a rest. Sigh of relief and a pat on your shoulder. You guys deserve it 

Hello!

My first blog in blogger...

I had a difficult time figuring out how to utilize this blog. it was so complicated as compared to my old one (which was Yahoo!360). Now I am still stuck at adding buddies into my friend list. I think I need to ask someone tomorrow or I will end up reading my own stuff over and over again.

I decided to use this simply because everyone uses this. So i just asked myself "why not give it a try?". Oh, I just found out that this thing can give us info about news, sport, even weather. Hum, it seems to be more useful than the my old one. And you can add friends by simply adding the URLs. pretty cool, isnt it? I really think that I am having a conversation with myself now. haha. never mind, it is just a start. Things will get better over time, wont they?

Tmr is another Math paper. I dunno but I seem to lose my confidence in every paper. I am just afraid that I will encounter some difficult questions and end up losing some marks... Anyway, the last 2 papers. Hope it will be satisfactory and I sincerely want my Ip2's year to be fruitful and something that I can be proud of before entering a new era - JC. 

I need to figure out how to add friends so they can start reading my blogs. It has been a long time since the last time I had my own blog. I have been sharing with someone else. Writing out what you feel is a good way to improve your English. I heard that from someone...

Have a nice visit to my blog
