ATTENTION!
I MAY NOT BLOG OFTEN DUE TO TIGHT AND HECTIC SCHEDULE DURING JUNE HOLIDAY. BUT I CAN ONLY POST THE INSPIRATIONAL AND MOTIVATIONAL STUFFS. I HOPE THESE POSTS WILL INSPIRE YOU. ONCE AGAIN, HOPE YOU WILL UNDERSTAND MY SITUATION. =)
TO SEC 5N1 INCLUDING MYSELF,
MUST WORK HARD FOR 'O' LEVEL! JIAYOU! =)
Common Paths, Common Goals
Reaching for the goals.
Let's set for goals together! =)
♥
I had never been received bad or lousy result in my life. Actually, it was my first time to flunk some of subjects. Of course, I'm really disappointment with my result. My eyes was about to well but I have to control my tears. I was so speechless, not even a single word. I do not know what to say. My mind was blank that I could not think well. I have no choice but to accept the facts. When the things are done cannot be undone. Am I right? I think Allah gave me this trial as a test. I will accept this test.
Oh Allah! Please give me the strength to face the challenge of learning through Sec 5 this year, no matter what. I know you gave me this trial as a test. I have to be strong and faith in You. Please guide me to the straight path in order to achieve in this world and the hereafter. Allah is The Greatest! Amin.
However, I will never give up easily with Allah's guidance, no matter what. I decided to improve my attitude towards my study like what I did when I was Sec 1. I want to prove to some people (I will not mention their names) wrongly because they think negative about me. *my tear started to flow* :'( My determination spurred me to work even more harder. JiAyOu! Hopefully, I can do well for 'O' Level that I'm targeting for. I will not reveal my realistic goals.
THE KEY TO SUCCESS IS PATIENCE.
NEVER GIVE UP! =)

What can you do if you have not done well in your common test?
Reflect honestly.
Did you put in the effort in prepare for it? If yes, then what is the problem? You will know it better than anyone. If you do not have the answer, ask the people around you. Your parents, friends, classmates and teachers. They can probably share some observations and thoughts with you.
Take corrective measures.
Take action immediately to change for the better. Action can be a very simple one, like paying more attention during lesson or even completing your homework assignments. The important thing is get started! Never wait!
Pace yourself & observe the changes.
Constantly review the results you are getting for the effort you are putting into your work. If they are getting better, celebrate! Yes, you hear me right, celebrate by doing something you love! It can be 1 hour more computer playing time, a shopping trip over the weekend, catch a movie. This will work as you are happy and will continue to work even harder!
Conclusion: NEVER GIVE UP!

ATTENTION TO WEAKER MATHS STUDENTS!
I am going to share with you guys some tips on preparing for your Maths Common Test, Exams or Quizzes.
#1 : Review your previous assignments, tests and quizzes.
Look at the things which you did not do correctly the previous time. Find out the reason for not doing it right. Could it be you have a mis-conception of that topic, you are not careful in your calculation, you mis-read the question? Whichever is your reason, find YOUR way to counter it.
For example,
CAUSE: I did not get the marks I deserve as I was not careful when I did mental calculations. MY COUNTER: I am going to write down my steps on paper instead of holding them in my mind. This will reduce my careless mistakes.
Reviewing previous assignments, tests, quizzes is something students do not usually do as they find no purpose in doing. However, if you were to think again, the intention of having tests is to find out on the amount things that you know and the things which you are not sure yet. To order to achieve a better result from each test, don’t you think it is important for us to reflect on our previous assignments to find out the things we already know and the things we did not get it right yet. Those which we did not get it right, it is our responsiblity that we ensure that history does not repeat itself.
#2 : Add YOUR own notes to the learning materials.
When doing revision for Math, it is important and definitely useful to go through (not just read through) the notes. However, if you were to add in your own little notes alongside, these will help you to learn and understand better as you are penning down your thoughts crucial for the topic. It is absolutely highly recommended that you create your PowerNotes or some prefer to refer them to CheatSheets. All these have one thing in common : they are summaries of important keyconcepts or formulaes for the topic. I usually keep my PowerNotes to one A4 sheet of paper for each topic.
#3: Apply to questions.
Maths is a subject that I always tell my student that they hardly have to study the textbook unlike other content based subjects. It is about understanding the fundamentals of each concepts and applying the knowledge to solving of questions. You may use questions from
--- Ten Year Series (Compilation of the past year examination questions from GCE O Level),
--- Other schools papers (easily buy them outside; but one word of warning: some school papers are “lethal”, handled with care else instead of boosting your confidence, they might lower your self-esteem with all those challenging level of questions)
--- Textbook questions; good and fair
If you were to follow and apply the 3 tips, I am certain you will be able to conquer this monster whereas many students fall prey to it. =)

TODAY IS THE DAY
Today is the day I will change my mind,
and leave all the negative things behind.
Today is the day I want to be free,
and not let life troubles get to me.
Today is the day I will do my best,
and make sure I focus to past each day's test.
Today is the day I will take a stand,
and choose to do right to my fellow man.
Today is the day I will put my foot down,
and encourage myself when I feel I want to frown.
Today is the day, no longer will I doubt
in spite of the grumblers who stand about.
You look at me and ask "How will you start?",
"Well, first there must be a change in my heart".
I will hang with new friends who want to achieve,
and who want a good education cause that's what I believe.
I will respect those around me, young and old,
for respect is the key, that's what I've been told.
I will demand excellence you see,
for I must insist to become a better me.
I will reach for the stars no matter how hard it seems,
and fly like a bird with the knowledge this journey brings.
So you see it's not impossible, I must take life day by day
and do the right things as I travel along the way! =)

I just came back home from badminton competition. Damn tiring! =X Sigh.. I lost for badmintion competition (singles) to one professional player in first round. There goes my effort. However, there will be other badmintion competition which is for double team in coming soon. JiaYou! =)
Anyway..My mother have already met my form teacher just now. He told her about my serious issues such as skipping art exam and my behaviour towards some of my teachers. My mother also told him what I am doing at home and worried about my main subject especially English Language. Sigh.. =X
My form teacher kindly ordered me to follow him to outside general office and has some chat with him. He asked me what happened during art exam, the reasons why I want to skip art exam, whether I have problem in studying and many more. I told him totally everything. My principal also kindly asked me to see her during mother tongue period to deal the matter. Sigh.. =X
I'm really grateful for having currently form teacher like Mr Wum during my 4 and 1/2 years studying in school. He has transformed my life from average student to better student. Actually, he is the best teacher that I ever been in my life. No matter what my friends or other students comment him negatively. He is still the best teacher. I'm really grateful for that. Thanks you Mr Wum for everything and always be there for me and Sec 5N1 too. =)
The motivated phrase that my form teacher told me during morning discussion that I will never forget and stay in my heart forever when I told him that my result suddenly deteriorated. Here are his motivated phrase below:
BELIEVE IN YOURSELF.
I BELIEVE YOU CAN ACHIEVE.
I BELIEVE YOU CAN ACHIEVE.
I feel like I want to cry but I have to control my emotional. Mr Wum asked me to promise him that:
(1) I will change and improve myself.
(2) I have to write a short paragraph and 2 vocabulary words & make sentence construction.
(3) I should not use computer for a long time and not too often BUT can use computer for 1/2 hours only. =.=" [I feel that 1/2 hours is too little time. Do you agree with me?]
Therefore, I may not blog often but I will still update my blog. No worries. =) I shall not write any further. Till then. Enjoys! =)

ANNOUNCEMENT FOR TOMORROW
NATIONAL DISABILITY LEAGUE
SINGAPORE DISABILITY SPORT COUNCIL
BADMINTON COMPETITION
@ CIVIL SERVICE CLUB, TESSENSOHN CLUBHOUSE
All the best for those who participated this sport event tomorrow. JiaYou! =)
♥
I'm just disappointment with my results. =( Sigh.. It's my first time that I ever been in my life. I've not been myself lately. What's wrong with me, man? I want to bang my head against the wall and keep punching the wall for nuts just to feel better. =/
My heart thumped faster than a firing machine-gun. Examination scripts just gave out today till this Wednesday. I was shocked in my life. I didn't believe in my own eyes when my subject teachers gave out. I feel like I want to do something stupid like committing suicide.
Something told me that echoes in my ears and mind.. Hey?! Your life is precious. You should not waste it. Don't ever do such stupid thing or you'll regret in the rest of your life. Heed my asset advice, you should treasure what you have now and be grateful what you have now.
I don't wish to reveal my results that I received today as it makes me even more disappointed. Someone has already been overtook me. Never mind about it.. I just treated Mid-Year Examination as "messy". I don't know why I called that way but some of my friends agreed with me. Sigh..
This year's results are worser than last few years ago. Sigh.. Some of the questions that I've been so careless. *Smacks my head* Don't be so careless again next time. Learn from mistake and don't repeat it.
Anyway.. I'm planning to surprise them... I don't wish to elaborate it as it's too sensitive. =/
Erm.. I shall not write any further as my heart is going to sink. Till then. Enjoys! =)
MUST WORK HARD FOR 'O' LEVEL. OK? =)
JIAYOU!

Why are you staring at me for?! XD
Hey! Can you please pose properly for me?!
Damn cute! XD
Nice pose! Good job, cat. =)
=)
I created it at Adobe Photoshop CS3
Here are my photography of cat above. I took photo of it just for fun. All of these above seem basic to me. However, I will try to improve my photography skills just like professional photographers. I wish I want to be like them. I'm thinking of buying a professional digital camera like SLR. But not yet until I've enough money to buy it. =/
Anyway.. I hope you will like these photos. You can also make comment or even give photography tips too. Enjoys! =)

Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
Life is beauty, admire it.
Life is a dream, realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is a promise, fulfill it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is a tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.
Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
Life is life, fight for it.

I WILL NEVER GIVE UP!
I will never give up
No matter what the odds are
No matter what people say
No matter how far
I will never give up
If I throw it away time after time
If I am one step behind try after try
If I miss dime after dime
I will never give up
Even when it seems all over
Even when no one else believes
Even when it seems I can go no further
I will never give up
For I know I have strength within
For I know I can persevere
For I know that I can win
I will never give up
Because it's someone else's fault
Because I am settling for good enough
Because I fear that I will fall short
I will never give up
There is so much I can still do
There is too much talent to waste
There is so much in me that I want you to see
I will never give up
Why squander all of my hard work and dedication
Why not show the world that I am a fearless baller
Why quit when I still have the opportunity to go on
I will never give up
If I do, I will not be the best me that could live
If I do, I will never know what I am capable of
If I do, I am not giving the world all I can give
I will never give up
♥
I just received an SMS message from my form teacher. It read "...LET ME KNOW WHEN UR PARENTS MEETING ME..COMPULSORY!".
"Oh no!! What if he tells what am I doing during Term 1 and 2? Surely..my parents (especially mother) will nag, nag, nag, nag" my imagination started to run wildly. My heart thumped faster than a firing machine gun. Sigh.. Every mothers have the right to know our progress and even nag us. =/
I think my result for mid-year examination will be badly that worser than last year. I must admit that I was slightly slacking at home. =/ I think I must change my attitude and behaviour from now onward before it's too late. To my dearest readers, you should also change yourself too before it's too late. Do you know that time flies very fast nowadays? We should treasure what we have now or we will regret in the rest of our life.
I think I have nothing else to write down. Don't forget to stay tuned. Enjoys! =)

Nowadays, I've been interested in photography. I don't know why. I decided that I want to burn my passion. I should not waste it. In order to entertain you, I will upload some of my photography in the future. Hope you like it. =) Well.. I'm still in beginner. =/
To steal a soul or a moment in time
It’s a wonderful invention and art
Snap a photo here, click a frame there
Just a moment in time
Trapped forever in it’s frame
And put upon your wall
Such as you would shoot an animal
And mount it’s head
But isn’t that all photography is?
Isn’t that all hunting is?
An art, trapping something forever
Capturing something that will be stared at
Possibly admired
For the rest of eternity
Is this what art has become?
♥
Sorry for not updating my blog for about almost two months due to Internet connection problem. It's really troublesome and irriating, isn't it? Hope you accept my humble apology. I'm really appreciate of that. =)
MID-YEAR EXAMINATION IS OFFICIALLY OVER!
Now I can relax during weekend to catch up to get enough rest as I've been sicked for a week. Sigh.. =/ Recently, I've been having running nose, coughing and high fever (40.4 Celsius). As a result, I missed Elementary Mathematics Paper 2 (my favourite subject) and Social Studies examination. Luckily, I was on 1-day MC (Medicial Certificate). What a relief! I must take care of my health. We must not take our heath for grant. You must also take care of yourself too. Ok? =)
I would like to thank you Elva for your concern and your asset advices all this while. I'm really grateful for that. =)
Sigh.. I think I'm not likely to do well in examination due to my illness that slowed me down. Never mind about that. I will not repeat the same mistake for next 2 most important examination (Preliminary Examination and 'O' Level).
I think I've to pull my socks up to do well in my 'O' Level in order to enter Polytechnic and able to place in demanding course. I don't want to regret for coming back to Sec 5 after 'N' Level.
"To Sec 5N1, don't ever regret for coming back to Sec 5 after our 'N' Level. Actually, you have made the right choice but Sec 5 stuffs put alot of pressure on you. Am I right? We are in the same boat through thick and thin for 4 and 1/2 years. I know that our form teacher wants us to be successful in the rest of our life. But everyone is not perfect. Am I right? Without certificate, we will not be able to go anywhere. We will work together as one to get better result. I'll try my best to guide all of you to be successful person and I will always be there for you. Don't be afraid to ask for my help if you need. Don't let it torture you and don't put yourself too much. I just want to help you. Last but not at least, I'm really thankful for being our classmates and even good friends for 4 and 1/2 years. =)"
[PS: Can you (Sec 5N1) please kindly tag in tagboard after you read my "letter" if you wish?] Thanks alot. =)
