week one of back to skul

when i was back in skul, i was kind of alone cos everyone already know everyone except me. but my classmate are ok, they talk to me, it's just that i hesitate to ask people question when i'm clueless about something.

the 1st two days were awful. tracing, drawing and coloring. the tracing was no fun cos it's just copying. drawing was fine and i din do well with that. coloring was NO FUN AT ALL, plus can't finish it in one day. so, i have to accumulate them til weekend (dateline's end of semester). wednesday's project. i got into a group. in the morning, i was so blur, din hear my teammate said they are in the pc lab, and i just sit there and read about Vincent van Gogh all morning. Until, Winnie came back and fetch me there. Then, we do project for whole day and i got a chance to know and speak to everyone in my group. We didn't manage to finish it in skul n i offered to finish it at home. At least i've pay back the blur times i gave them. Thursday,drawing class was great. I manage to draw what the teachers ask for and I was absent last week where they teach these techniques. Friday was boring with english and art history.

I also helped at the school's office this week. it's a compulsory duty for those who got merit scholarship.

As I said to everyone who asked me, the skul is so far from my home that it's very tiring to get to either point. I wake up at 6am to get out with Teng. Arrives at skul by 8am, skul starts at 9.

When it's a day where mum, dad and Yen is getting Teng around 4pm, they'll come to kbu and fetch me home by squeezing through the sandwich traffic. When it's a day that i'm doing duty and finishes at 5.30pm, i'll catch the 5.30pm skul's shuttle bus to Kepong Central ktm station. Pay rm3.10 to get to Serdang. And I'll get home by 7pm which is better than tiring my family, wasting petrol, paying tols and polluting the air.

I'm struggling to find a balance with this time table and i'm taking ensemble by next monday. But that I suppose will work as a energy booster rather than a burden, same goes for my violin lesson. I didn't manage to get a long rest at home after skul b4 the lesson this week, but i was quite hyper when i'm in the class. I talk and talk and talk to Mr. Hong like I've seen a best friend. When i said i hate coloring homeworks, and now i feel like i like music more than art, Yen said maybe the degree that i should take is music, that I can take it when I'm older. mmm... It's not a bad idea^^

ps. I speak fluent english now.

歲月神偷 Echoes of the Rainbow 主題曲(歌詞)

i fell in love with this movie when i watched it on the plane. it's a famous movie which had won several awards this year. the 4 main actor and actress are so good, impressed of all their performance in the movie. the script was good too. these are the few quotes that sticks in my mind ever since i last watched it.

弟弟对生病的哥哥说：我已经偷了所有你喜欢的东西回来了，你到底想要什么啊？

妈妈：开饭了，今天有鱼吃。

弟弟：我不吃！我不吃!

妈妈：小时不吃鱼，大了不会游泳。

弟弟：真的吗？

爸爸：妈妈几时有骗过你呢。。（剧中吴君如-妈，一直都有说这样的话。弟弟都会问哥哥“真的吗？”）

爸爸作了一双皮鞋送给妈妈。爸爸把鞋子的设计一一说给妈妈听。妈妈为这双鞋改了名字- 难佳。左边难，右边佳。 一步难，一步佳- 生活就是这样过的。

每次弟弟哭的时候，哥哥就会把弟弟宝在怀里。

哥哥：学哥哥。你看，哥哥都没哭。你要学哥哥一样，不哭。

saved a bug

i've save a bug today..

it was in the morning.. well actually i woke up late, it was 12pm noon. i went to the bath room and pee. saw a 'dian iak' struggling in the the water+pee (sorry, for the disgusting-ness). so, i thought since it has pee in it already, i'd better close my eyes and flush it away.

after flushing, the bug is still there. this time when it wasn't disgusting anymore (now that the pee are gone), i grab some toilet tissue and save it from the water. then, put the tissue with the bug on it on the floor. I then continue my routine to brush my teeth.

while brushing, i observed once in a while if the bug is ok . it's ok and unhurt. and able to use it's wings well which are not common when these 'dian iak's are saved. it was walking on the floor and i caught a glib that it was walking towards my foot, i moved my foot from where it was. I looked in the mirror in one second, and the next, the bug was on the platform in front of my mirror, where we place tooth brush and stuff, which is right in front of me.

at that moment, i thought it was thanking me or something. i thought in my heart, "what a tough bug it is". it must have struggled in the water from a long time, maybe since midnight.
