My Week(sounds like an essay title O.o)...

Well,this last week has been pretty interesting.Quite a number of things happened.Monday was really nice(after school I mean).Levina and I went to Petaling Street after school to get something.After looking around and not finding whatever it was we were looking for,we decided to go back to KL Library.On the way to the library,it started drizzling.So,we stood under a tree so that we wouldn't get wet.The bad thing was,the rain got a whole lot heavier.And the other bad thing was,I was wearing my white PJ shirt.Sigh....So,we ran all the way to the library since we thought it was already quite near to where we were trying to shade ourselves.When we reached the library,we looked as if we just got out of the shower.Oh wait,let me rephrase that.It looked like we just came out from showering with our clothes on.Yea,that's the right way to say it.It felt good actually,running in the rain.I hadn't done it since I-have-no-idea-when,and it felt really really good to do that again.It was as if I was 6 again,and I was trying to imitate a show I had watched where the lady was spinning around in the rain.The only difference was,they didn't add thunder and lightning in the movie.Such a smart 6 year old I was.Lol..
On that same day,during school time,I was told I was chosen as a 'Calon Pengawas' together with Levina and Tinisha.I wasn't sure whether I wanted to be a prefect,especially since that would mean Lenna,my cousin,might turn out to be the only one in my group to not be a prefect.So,during interviews the next day,I declined the offer.The prefectorial board in my school isn't very high-standard,and some of the prefects' behaviors were really bad.Another reason I said no was because I wasn't exactly 'doing' all my homework,so I didn't want to be an irresponsible prefect.Hahahaha...I think the only reason I wanted to be a prefect was because of the uniform and to be with my friends.I'm half-hoping Levina and Tinisha won't get chosen.Evil me..Donkey,Sha,you guys didn't read that...=P

For Tinisha

A few weeks ago,my school was the host for an event.Thanks to this event,we didn't study at all the entire day.Guess what we did.We(all the non-muslim Form 4s) were sitting in Bengkel Memasak in the Form 3 block.Levina wasn't feeling so good-she kept saying she felt like vomitting and her tummy hurt.We didn't think it was that serious since it was LEVINA!We never expected her to actually vomit,and I definitely didn't expect her to vomit on ME!But,she did.Sigh..Honestly,it wasn't as big a deal as I'm trying to make it sound like.She only got my shoe.Phew,thank God for that.Levina,you got your pay back.It was never my intention for the banana and vanilla to actually get all over you.Oh yea,the potato was an accident too!She was so happy she vomitted.Want to know why?She said she hasn't vomitted since,I forgot when,but a very long time ago,and she felt so good after vomitting.Right,that pretty much tells you Levina is whacked.Hahaha...Anyway,after that,my friend Jaya(pronounced as Jeya),admitted she wanted to try to vomit so that she could feel good like Levina too.(Levina!You're a bad influence!=P)Then we took that opportunity to escape from an extremely boring session of 'watch-the-teacher-attempt-to-teach-us-Sejarah',which of course,failed!Hahahaha...We(Levina,Jaya,Shona,Tinisha and I) told teacher we were going to take Levina to the sick bay.The smart thing there was,we never told teacher whether or not we would go back to class.The sick bay is at the other corner of the school,so teacher obviously wasn't going to bother to find us when half the Form 4s were running around the school already.We hid at the sick bay the rest of the day.We purposely turned off the lights so no one would suspect anyone was inside and whenever we suspected someone was coming,we ducked behind the table.It was so funny!!!Tinisha,considering she's such a smart [insert freakishly dumb animal here],pasted herself on the wall so that no one would 'see' her.Sorry Tinisha,I love you!!^_^ =P The whole time there,we told ghost stories.Jaya did this super scary imitation of the ghost in Ju On.I was seriously freaked out.That was one of the best experiences in school ever!!There you go Tinisha.Are you sure you'll actually read all this?O.o???

Christians-By Maya Angelou

Just stumbled across this e-mail while checking my old e-mails, and it makes extra sense now than it did the first time I read it...

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'.
" I'm whispering "I was lost,
Now I'm found and forgiven."

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak
And need His strength to carry on.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
And need God to clean my mess.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible
But, God believes I am worth it.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain.
I have my share of heartaches
So I call upon His name.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner
Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Laugh laugh laugh...

Sorry haven't been able to update cause my computer is actually dead,lying in the grave.
Here's Part 2 of Malaysians Should Be More Considerate.

1. Malaysians should learn to control their laughter.
You're sitting in a restaurant chatting with your friend.You hear someone laughing really loudly and obnoxiously.You turn to the direction of the sound.Just at that very moment,the person who was laughing turns toward you as well and showers you with a mouthful of ice cream and banana.(Based on a true story,but parts have been edited.)

2. Malaysians should not tempt other people with their computer games.
You are updating your blog when you notice your friend(Annora!!) playing solitaire on the other computer enthusiastically.You watch her play and you get the sudden urge to play solitaire too.GAAAH!!!You lunge for the mouse!!Annora backs away!!Muahahaha..and you get control over the game.Once again,my genious has brought success and you play until your eyes get watery and red.

I dream..

Lord,I dream of things I don't have,I dream of a world that is so unlike the world I'm living in now,I dream of situations I know will never happen.I dream of swimming in a vast open sea where there are no boundaries,no dangers,knowing I will never drown because You are there with me.I dream of being a person so on fire for You every single second of her life.Never having to experience dry and empty periods.I dream of a place I can always be safe,a place not even home can compare.I dream of smiling faces around me,never needing to experience hurt again.Lord,I dream of dancing without having to feel insecure about what people think of me.I dream of singing out loud without worrying I'll go off key.I dream of holding every instrument You have ever created and have the ability to play each and every one of them.I dream of being capable to lead those around me the way You want me to.I dream of patience in my life.I dream of honesty in the life of others.I dream of children never having to go hungry in the world,always safe and warm in their parents' longing embrace.I dream of understanding betweeen every single living soul in this world,understanding amongst one another,understanding the needs of the world,understanding the plants and animals,understanding me.

The Effects of Deforestation

An essay I wrote for my English lesson in school...
Forests play a huge role in the ecosystem of all living things.It's a habitat for animals, a source of food and oxygen for humans,and also our source of building materials.Forests are also our country's source of income.Without forests,the earth wouldn't be the same and we would all face humongous problems and chaos.(not exaggerating here)
Deforestation may 'benefit' us in some ways;our big beautiful homes,comfortable furniture,unlimited supply of colourful paper and pencils,and source of our wood for woodwork during Kemahiran Hidup.While enjoying the splendor of all these things,have we stopped to wonder about the effects of deforestation are?The word 'deforestation' alone sends chills down my spine.
Deforestation causes the habitat of many animals to be destroyed,which then causes animals to die.Some species are on the verge of extinction because of this man-made phenomena.Although there are a number of animals which survive from getting killed along with their homes,that doesn't assure their safety,not one bit.These animals usually end up wandering into villages in rural areas and end up getting killed and most probably eaten there.A number of rare species of animals are caught by poachers and sold illegally.
During the course of deforestation usually comes forest fires and open burnings.Another thing it causes is landslides.All these cause lives to be lost,homes to perish and trauma in lives that survive.Fellow humans who live in forest areas are forced to live in fear and worry that the dirt and rocks from the hill beside their houses might one day suddenly fall on top of their roofs and burry them alive.To save themselves from the dangers of landslide they most probably have to move away from the place they are so used to calling home and sanctuary because in reality,there's nothing safe about the area.
Need I explain about forest fires.We all know the danger of fires and the despair it can inflict on someone when everything they own and have grown accustomed to disappears in a matter of minutes.There are cases where landslides and fires have caused families to be lost,children younger than we ever expected to be the only ones left alive in those disasters.Having your loved ones gone in a blink of an eye.It doesn't feel right to be living in comfort when so many others are suffering so we get to live in the houses were once forests where they called home.
I'm not saying we ought to live in caves.What I'm saying is we should do something about it.Start by recycling.As simple as it may seem,it will save a lot of resources and save our forests as well.

Emo-ness...

Do you see me in the crowd?
As I'm desperate to catch your eyes.
Seeing you laugh and smile without me by your side,
Kills me deep inside...

Happy as I am for you,
I cannot help but hope;
For a future that includes me and you,
Inside your golden globe world.

Any second I could fall,
If not for your tiny gestures of care.
As tiny as they may be,
I want them all to be for me...

How can one so great, be there a while?
And yet disappear in a magician's cloud.
Dragged away willingly by your genious wiles,
In a land that was never meant to be...

Of Ball Games and Sunburns...

Today was pretty fun, but extremely tiring. I went to Pusat Kecermelangan Cochrane for the Bola Baling Competition. Let me tell you beforehand that I did not play, I went there to help my Coco teacher with the time recordings and stuff.We reached there around 8 a.m. and we left the place only around 3:45P.m. The whole time I was there, I was stuck under an umbrella, which didn't help much since I got sunburned anyway. So, now my brother's not the lobster at home anymore. Brian got really really sunburned on Saturday from his Boys' Brigade event thingy at YMCA. Guess I shouldn't have laughed at him for it. Now I'm the one being laughed at. Sobzz... Anyway, watching the Under 15 girls play was reeeeaaaaaaaallllllllly nerve-racking, especially when my school played. It was fun to watch, but a fight nearly broke out when Sri Cempaka was playing against Taman Tun Dr Ismail. Sri Cempaka was playing kind of roughly, so TTDI's leader got really annoyed and actually hit about 5 of the players.In the end, TTDI won and the leader apologised. My school actually got second place in Zon Bangsar, meaning they're going to play state!!!!!!! I was pretty upset that we couldn't get First. They played so hard and so well!! It broke my heart to see them crying!!! Sobzzz!!!! Sigh..I'll save my voice to shout and cheer tomorrow; Under 18. Another day of sunburns..YAY!!!(not!!!)
