2011 had pass us by in a flash, it was one of the fastest year I ever experienced. And in a flash, I'm half-way through my university education. It motivates me at the thought that I'll be graduating next year, I'm looking forward what the future holds for me, and my loved ones.
I wrote down some resolutions as part of the celebrations with Barron and Joanna last year. They included
1) I wish my family bond will be closer.
Fair enough, I guessed we did grew closer but much still can be improved in 2012.
2) Improve if not maintain my school grades.
Sem 2 and 3 results are not bad! But much more can be done in 2012.
3) Treat friends with kindness and compassion
Personally, I always wished I can become a better man, and have to improve on my interpersonal skills. I hope I didn't offend any one in 2011! And 2012 will be a better year!
In 2012, I only made one resolution. Shall reveal it comes 2013! =)
And I found that someone I was looking for. And I want to thank her for giving this relationship a chance. My life has since been way BETTER with you around. Ever since being together with you, you had made the difference in my life. Action speaks louder than words, and I'll give it all just for you. Thank you Stephanie.
We had solid fun at Genting! Gosh we must be crazy attempting to take jumpshots and videos in the middle of the night in the freezing rain!
Exams are officially over once again. A big thanks to my classmates who never fail to distract me sweets, food, drinks, snacks, tidbits, hotdog, kopi, fish ball etc etc during the study break. Yet they are the same people whom was with me to take on this battle face on. I'm sure all of us will do well and hop on to next sem. =)
This sem had been overall quite difficult. It started well but it ended up in frantic rush. Let's recap. 2 orientation in the beginning of the sem was fun & enriching and eventually led to joining the Student Council. Not to forget the 5 assignments that was due one week after another. And to only received the assignment results less than 1 week before exams that painfully up the pace for revision, especially HMT. Speaking of that, the worst result came from HMT, I only literally JUST PASSED that assignment, that means there was no allowance or so if I screwed up the main paper. It's a paper that sent chills down my spine by just remembering the names of the people. In case you're wondering, HMT stands for History Of Management Thoughts.
Adam Smith - Robert Owen - Charles Babbage - Charles Dupin - Frederick Taylor - Frank & Lillian Gilbreth - Henri Fayol - Max Weber - Mary Follett - Elton Mayo - Chester Barnard - Abraham Maslow - Douglas McGregor - Frederick Herzberg - Kurt Lewin - Peter Drucker - Hawthorn Study - TQM and a few more I've already erased from memory. So imagine you study their names and their work. So if you think secondary school or A level history was bad, think again.
Back to reality, I'm still going through the recuperating phrase, that is to reformat my brain and return it to normal. 24 hours plus of sleep since exams ended 48 hours ago was good, but not good enough. I need more. Sleeping is the best way to take back what you've lost during exams. Hey did I mention eating? No? That's because my gum right behind the last tooth on the lower jaw is swollen right now. I sincerely hoped it's not wisdom tooth and just pure heatiness due to exam stress or something else. It's irritating me cause I can't eat, speak and SING normally right now. I had to spend 30mins to finish a bowl of instant noodle and even had to ask my mom to chop dinner nowadays into fine pieces so I can grind the food with my tongue against my teeth on the other side. I can't chew. At least it's getting better now but it still feels as though some food is stuck in between your teeth and the gum. Just hope it can recover on its own.
It's the month of November and that means birthday is coming. I will be 23 in two weeks time. Oh how time flies. I don't celebrate birthday so everyone please if you remember me, at most just send me a Happy Birthday text will do. =)
November also marks Jay Chou new album on the special date 11/11/11. Well his new songs are totally awesome. My pick for those that had been released are: Ni Hao Ma (How are you?), Pi Ying Xi (Shadow Puppetry) and Mine Mine ( the dance damn awesome!). Anyway Ni Hao Ma is really touching. It's a simple song yet it's again the awesome lyrics that blow my mind cause I can relate it to personally word for word.
