Kudos, Nuffnang.

Just wanna dedicate this post to Nuffnang, the advertising company. Just wanna thank the support team for quick and accurate response. Keep up the good work. God bless.

Bye Bye....

Bye bye Q-Dees kiddies... It's my last day of work today. I tried asking for extension but the principal said they only needed assistants for 2 months only. Gonna miss the kids. They're all special friends :). This job has been a blessing to me. Thank God. Lord Jesus, please bless every single kid, protect them from all evil. God bless the kids. I took my video camera to work today. Caught many footages of kids fooling around (or was it who was fooling around?). Gonna miss all the good, naughty, pretty, handsome, cute, chubby, fat, sensitive, egoistic and spoiled kids from Q-Dees, Andalas. Oooo, not only the kids, gonna miss Thilaga and the teachers too. Awesome company. God bless them too. Roo Ai has a new hair style. Pretty xD. Too bad she's only 6. Sigh... xD.

Planning to attend YE tomorrow. Not sure whether I'm playing drums or not. AHha! Gonna check later. Hope Poh Leong comes online. He'll make checking easier.

SPM results? When? Sheesh. Speaking about results, my TOEFL results not out yet. I'm getting so worried now. Either it'll be out later at night, or Monday. I don't know. 10 working days' up, I think. =(.

Kandas!

Firstly, sorry for the dumbass mistake I made on the date of when the SPM results will be out. My bad. Think I was too excited and missed out the YEAR xD. Well, hope the government will announce soon. Really need it to plan for my future.

Anyways, went for my driving test this morning (yesterday morning to be exact) and yeah, I failed =(. Failed for my road test, passed my second section though (parking, etc.). I think I did fairly good. Followed all road rules and signs. But guess what? The invigilator failed me, and he was sleeping the WHOLE way. I got 13 out of 20 points. Passing mark is 16. I was marked down because of not using my signal properly (he stated I was late), didn't drive in my own lane (I check both my mirrors to make sure I was in my lane very often), didn't use my hand brake properly (I did) and he stated that I was driving badly (membahayakan nyawa)... My maximum speed was 50km/h (housing area). Hmmmm, he was sleeping all the way and he canfail me. Corrupted guy. If I fail my next try, I'm gonna bomb the invigilator with questions on how the heck can I freaking fail. Son of a crap. But thank God for His protection though. Didn't bang anything and I was kinda calm during the whole test. Thank God. And also thank God for His guidance as I was doing the slope section. After I passed that part, I gained confidence for the rest of the section. Glory to Him. Next test? 11th of March. MUST PASS.... Or no food. Haha!

Going out this Thursday with my buddies. Called Kavi and Yee Thien just now. Finally I got to speak to them after a long time. I should call them more often. So yeah, I think Kavi, Guna and Bernie will be able to join Fong Hei and me. Hope they can =). Wanna call Janusha also. She's bumming, big time.

Sheessh! Unreliable sources. Read THIS. Abridged: SPM results out on the 12th of March. Sheeesh!

Driving Test, Tomorrow!

Argh! Worrying now... Excited too xD. Ambivalent!!!!! I didn't drive properly on the road just now. It seems that I would have failed with the way I was driving just now. Yerrr.... Stupid me =(. Driving also got problem.... =(... Gonna try to sleep early tonight. I woke up like 4:30AM today because of stomach ached badly... Thought I needed to skip my job today but thank God for a stern mum =). Work was alright today. I was very laid back. Wait, I've been laid back since last week. Haha! I sometimes avoid going into classes to help teachers xD. Naughty me!

Anyways, just can't wait for tomorrow to end. I MUST pass my driving test. Don't wanna waste money and time. Let Your will be done in my life. Thank God that I nailed the slope today. Now the only problem is the driving on the road part. I hate the procedures. Just hope I remember to fulfill every requirements.

I can't wait for the SPM results to come out. I want to send my application form edi! Oh yeah, I received a post mail just now. Guess what? I got the National Service letter thingy. Argh! So many things to read and to do. Need to go for doctor checkup, need to read the participant manual and some other stuff. I hope I don't over pack for NS like for camps always. xD. Haha!

I miss you.

Hawaii!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank God for good contacts :). I'm so looking forward to study in Hawaii. Just can't wait to start studying Marine Science in Hawaii. My family and I went out for dinner with the people who recommended me to enroll into University of Hawaii at Hilo just now. They're really positive with my decision to study in that University. They're daughter went there to do her Marine Science. So yeah, they shared some experiences and described the place and all. Everything sounds AWESOME! That made me optimistic about my future. Just can't wait to study. LetYour will be done in my life, Lord.

Driving test this Tuesday. Kinda worried and nervous. Fiona failed her slope. Argh... I'm bad in that part too. I'm having practice tomorrow so yeah, need to IMPROVE! Don't wanna waste time and money! All for You, Lord.

Can't wait for my SPM results. People keep on saying it'll be out on the 28th of February. But I heard on the radio it'll be out on the 7th of March. Sheesh. Who to believe? Argh. Whenever it comes out, I hope I'll get straight A1s! Anything other than that, I'll frown the whole day, or maybe weeks... Your Will, Lord.... In contrast to that, I'm NOT looking forward to get my TOEFL results. So worried :(. Screwed it up... Argh! But what is done, is done. Let His will be done. Need it to enter the University anyways =(.

IACT

Phew.... Feeling so tired now. Came back around 8PM from a workshop on Mass Communication in IACT (forgot the full name), Uptown Damansara. Woke up at around 5:45AM and left house around 6:30AM. Shirlyn followed me down to the college. Shu Pei joined us in Taman Bahagia station near SS2, PJ. My dad decided to send three of us to the college. We arrived an hour before the registration time. So, Shu Pei went to have her breakfast. The college's gallery is so nice. The art works are awesome. Not as nice as The One Academy's gallery though (thumbs up, Poh Leong). The people in the college are very friendly. I met Shing Yee =). The participants are kinda friendly. I met a few awesome peopleand met a few nutcases. Can't believe how addicted those asses are to cigarettes. Sheesh.

The classes were okay. Was kinda upset with the Video Editing class. They didn't explain much about anything about Video Editing. The lecturer just explained about the razor tool on Adobe Premier and that's it. Then she asked us to edit some videos. Sheesh.

I think the most interesting class/talk was the Film Directing talk by Felix Tan. He's a local director. He directed a Chinese movie and was screened last year in GSC cinemas. I think the name of the movie is Hidden Summer in One's Heart or something like that. Received a few pointers from him and got his contact details. Muahaha!

Gah! Supposed to post this up last night. Thanks to Vista, my new laptop couldn't work properly. Sheesh.

So yeah, gonna update about today. Woke up relatively late today. Shirlyn couldn't attend for today's workshop because she was dead sick. Argh! What a waste. Today's sessions were awesome! I enjoyed a lot. Learned a few things about Mass Communication and Public Relations. We also had Fine Dining Etiquettes session too. It was fun. Can't wait for tomorrow. Thank God for helpful people in this world. Gotta go sleep.

Glory to God

I received an Email from the University of Hawaii at Hilo, it states that, I CAN ENROLL INTO THE UNIVERSITY WITH MY SPM RESULTS! THANK GOD! GLORY TO YOU, LORD!

I Regret

I regret not talking to You, I regret pushing You away all the time, I regret going against Your will; I now realise that I need You more than anything else in this world, I depend on You in everything, my future is in Your hands, without Your blessing, I will NEVER EVER accomplish anything, it's You that's is the pillar of everything good I do. Lord Jesus, forgive me for all these sins I've commited in the pass few weeks. Forgive me Lord for not talking to You, instead, I've been pushing you away. I know I'm wrong, and now I want forgiveness Lord. Please forgive me. All glory goes to You, amen.

TOEFL was crappy! *cries* I think I did fairly well in my Reading section, very good in my Listening section, below average for my Speaking section and I'm quite happy with my Writing section. I just can't believe that I would screw up this test in the Speaking section, of all sections! I was hesistant in almost all of my questions, words just didn't want to come out from my mouth when they're supposed to, but at the end of my answers, I add ummmm.... Sheesh! Dumb Jon! I almost said "Oh s***" in a question in the Speaking section. Oh my, dumb boy, Jon. TOEFL made me sleepy. Was struggling to keep my eyes open when my mother "coercionary" made me to go shopping with her in Ampcorp Mall. Head was literally splitting. Don't know why. Sigh, after the test, I know I can do better. Sheesh! Dumb Jon!

Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL)

Argh! My TOEFL test is in one day. I think I'm ready for the Reading, Listening and Speaking section. The Writing section seems intimidating to me. I don't know. It's just my slow pick up I think. I can't seem to concentrate too long when I see too many words on one page. I tend to slow down my pace of reading as well. Haha!

Anyways, Shirlyn and Shu Pei is gonna follow me to the Mass Communication workshop in IACT at Uptown Damansara. Booked the places for them already but now the problem is that Su Pei doesn't have transport to and from the place and from her aunt's house. Argh! Well, I think she'll finalize everything by tomorrow.

Gonna go switch computers, wanna go through the TOEFL Sampler again.

National Service - Sarawak

Just checked the National Service website just now, it seems that I was wrong about getting to know the location of my training camp a week before the registration date. My training camp is in Kuching, Sarawak. Woohoo! I hope it'll be an awesome place. Hope the trainers and trainees are affable. I'm ambivalent now about this agenda. Part of me is excited, but of me is worried. Well, let God take control of this situation.

Wheeee! Shu Pei came back from Penang. I don't know how on earth she persuaded her aunt (the principal) to let her come back to work here. Anyways, thank God, less job for both Shirlyn and me.

I got some red packets today! Wheee! Thank God. One was from the principal and three others from 3 students' parents. Was short on cash after banking in all of my earned and CNY ang pau money into my savings account, not anymore now xD.

I think that my boss is being austere for no reason and in the wrong moment. I think she cannot solve problems when under stressful conditions. I bet she not only exasperate me with her shrill voice and I-know-everything-attitude, in fact, I think she annoys everybody in school, including the students. A student name Celine told me that she didn't like the ballet classes but was obliged to say that she likes it because the principal's tone and face expression was intimidating. Haha! Was laughing in my heart xD. Sometimes my boss will kinda like, force students to give her a hug. HAHA! Seriously, it's like, if you don't hug, I don't let you in the school. HAHA! Was kinda paranoid just now at work when she simply screamed at me for no reason. It's not my fault her mic system is always faulty. She made me relay names of students whose parents are already waiting outside of the school during dismisal time. And yeah, I RELAYED everything and helped kids put on their shoes. Then she screamed at me for not relaying any names. What the heck, I relayed all the names, but none of them came out, so, not my problem. Haha! Whatever, still very paranoid. She ruins good days. But no matter how mean she can be, or how paranoid she can make me, she's still my boss. God bless her and I hope she'll chill a bit so that everything will go on smoothly and better. And crap, I don't like her screaming voice! Haha!

GY Camp 07 Aftershock Video

HERE you go, GY News junkies.

The video is kinda like a fast forward log because of the tempo of the song. It's fast and that there are just too many footages to include into this video to bring back memories for all your Campers last year. Sorry if you don't like it. I know He does.

PS: Updated sidebar links.

Ignorant Parents

Ignorant parents, wait, let me rephrase that. Ignorant Malaysian Parents, TAKE CARE OF YOUR CHILDREN, DUMB PEOPLE! Why blame the police of not being able to do their job properly when it's YOUR (parent's) fault that YOU lost YOUR child? How dumb can a parent be? First it was the case where some immigrants took a child away in a shopping mall and balded that child. Thank God nothing happen to him/her (forgot). Then it was the Nurin(sp?)'s case and a kid in today's news. Nurin was abducted and found dead. For the kid in today's news, he/she fell down into a pond and died. Now we have the Sharlinie problem. Argh. What's going on with you (ignorant) parents?! Don't know how to take care of your own kids? I think the police made a mistake when they didn't want to take action against the bald kid's (sorry if you think it's rude) parents. We thought the Nurin's case would put some sense into these parents but nooooo..... Now we get lost and dead children. And it's all because of the parents' fault. Wanna blame others? Who do you wanna point your finger at? It's YOUR child. YOUR child is BELOW 18 years old. So, YOU're responsible. Backside people! WAKE UP before it's too late! Everybody knows that there are bad people around us all the time. So, TAKE CARE OF YOUR CHILDREN! Don't freaking leave them alone in the shopping mall. Don't let them run out of the house ALONE, without the supervision of an adult. Disipline them! Sheesh, dumb ignorant Malaysian parents.

Anyways, CNY has officially ended for me today in Modern Restaurant just now during lunch time. Hahah! Yeap, I had my LAST heavy meal for CNY so yeah, that ends my CNY celebration. I had loads of fun, especially with my cousins. And oh yeah, I had loads of fun karaoke-ing xD. HAHA! Ang Paus were alright. xD. will post a vLog on CNY. God bless.

Paranoid

Gah! So paranoid now! Paranoid about some people, paranoid about my future, paranoid of myself. GAH! I want to go to Hawaii to do the Marine Science course so badly. Oh GOD, please help me =(. Gonna fast and pray after CNY for a miracle to happen, for the University of Hawaii at Hilo to accept me as a student with my SPM and TOEFL results! Speaking about TOEFL, argh! Time's running out. Need to buck up in my listening skill, need to be attentive. Come on Jon, you can do it!

Happy Chinese New Year people!

Driving!

Wheeee! Driving on the road is so fun =); for now though. Not sure if I'm audacious enough to drive without an instructor sitting next to me next time xD. Woke up at 7AM just now to get ready to be picked up by my driving instructor at eight. He came few minutes later than eight in the morning because he had to pick up another boy who's supposed to sit for his theory test but guess what? The theory test centres are closed today and nobody was informed. There were like three Perodua Kancils parked outside the centre waiting. Then my instructor called someone and found out that the centres were closed due to holidays. Argh. Dumb people, no?

Shu Pei (my ex-kindergarten colleague), went back to Penang already. It's gonna be a bit dull in work in the coming days. She's kinda like the good "chie chie"(sp?Sister in Mandarin) in the kindergarten. Too bad for the little kids xD. Haha! Less one assistant, more work for Shirlyn and I. Ouch! Shu Pei, come back after CNY!

Went to my aunt's place last night for a gathering before CNY. Karaoke is nice xD. Haha! Enjoyed my time with my relatives. God bless them.

Going to PJ later for reunion dinner. Muahahahaha!

Skin Up

Wanna customize your BORING laptop? Arrr, go get a laptop skin at SKINUP. It's a Malaysian company. Go browse, awesome skins.

Hawaii? No more =(

Chances of going to Hawaii to further my studies, close to nil. Argh! I hate you SAT! Haha! The future seems blur at the moment. My crystal ball (my dad xD), says that I need to do A Levels. Gah! And where am I going to do my A Levels? In HELP College, Klang Parade. Argh! Despite of the sad news, I'm still gonna apply to enter the University of Hawaii after I receive my TOEFL results with my Trials results. If dapat, dapat lerr... But I want dapat! Will be praying.

Okay, if my Hawaii plan is canceled (no!!!), anybody needs a drummer?

20 GB

<99 bottles of beer on the wall tune> 20 gigs of space in my C Drive, 20 gigs of space, you take up 19.5GB of space in my C Drive and now I only have 456MB of space.

Gah! I don't know how dumb some people can be. Computer technicians (self-proclaimed ones too) all know that 20GB of space for your Windows software files aren't enough for installation and other crap purposes. Sheeesh! Dumb people. Don't know how to partition properly arr?! Now my freaking C Drive is running on 456 MB only. Crap. My desktop computer is working soooo slowly... Sheeesh! Dam brain-in-backside-people!

Anyways, I think I'll be going for this year's Camp Meta. Muahaha! But nuh-uh, no MetaNews for me! I'm just gonna have fun! Haha! I need the Bible verse for camp ASAP, Mr. Lim An Drew. Need to finish the design edi. Must show Commander Desmond!
