Ice Princess

I’ll write about that little girl in the next post. I want to dedicate this post to a very special person because today is her birthday!

April 18th, a new date has been added into my reminders last year along with eight other. Today is the Ice Princess’s birthday! The ice princess with an awesome voice, proof? There’s too many to list. *chuckles*

Happy Birthday, Jessica Jung.

Wishing you good health and happiness together with the rest of the girls and lots of success to top it all of!

Six Years

Moving on to the next year, the little girl went to school but this time it was in the afternoon. The weather in the afternoon was very much different compared to being in school in the morning. For one thing, it was much hotter and duller in her opinion. However, she managed to pull through the afternoon session despite some major obstacles and made it back into the morning session.

This time around, she was reunited with her friends after one year of separation. How she missed them! They haven’t changed a bit. Still as lively and still the jokesters she once knew 2 years ago. She even shared one of her subjects with the class next door, which her kindergarten friends were in. after a horrible year in the afternoon the year before, she was overjoyed that she no longer had to share a class with unfriendly people and finally being able to be with her friends.
This time around, new subjects were being introduced to them. Confusing, yet, the little girl managed to get a B for her first test. 74/100. Not too bad if she could say so herself. Once she figured out the technique of answering, the rest of the year became less of a struggle and she began to enjoy lessons more. She was top her class that year, something which still surprises her until today. Things were going to be completely different the following years. Competition became fiercer as they competed against each other for better grades.

In the misc of the competition, she made new friends. Some forgotten ones from first year and new ones as well. There was one who taped her mouth shut during second year for talking during class, another who asked if she saw a blurry view early in the morning, fearing that her eye sight had gone bad at such an early age. Another who just transferred in from another city. She was really loud and not to mention has a great sense of humour.

Just like that, six years of the little girl’s childhood had gone and would not be coming back any time soon. Perhaps that little girl was not so little anymore at that time, slowly becoming a teenager and a soon to be very rebellious one as well.

A Little Girl's Journey

A girl walked into an empty classroom early in the morning accompanied by her mother. As she picked a seat that she liked, another girl walked in accompanied by her father. They exchanged greetings and ended up sitting beside each other. A few minutes passed and other kids came in and the bell rang. Parents were there to comfort their child while others were paying fees and such. One by one, the number of parents decreased and soon all of them left. The teacher called the students out and began rearranging the seats according to height. The first girl from before ended up sitting beside a boy she knew from the year before right at the back of the class. They were both considered tall in their class. The boy was elected class monitor while the girl was just a normal student. The teacher then called the students out one by one to collect name tags that she had made for them. They were told to wear the tags for around so that their classmates would call them by their names instead of ‘oi’. Pretty clever.

Days turned to weeks as the schooling term began to progress throughout that year. The girl made friends and enjoyed going to school and attended classes. She also met some of her friends from the year before. She was delighted to see familiar faces among so many unfamiliar ones. They somehow made her feel happy even thought they were in different classes. Most of them were in the class next to hers while she was alone in her own. It didn’t bother her as she already made a bunch of new friends who would laugh and joke all day with her.

The year soon came to an end and it was time to say goodbye to the school as the holidays came. The girl was quite sad to leave school for 2 months or so and yet she was happy that she didn’t have to get up early every weekday to go to school.

‘till we meet again, my friends’ she thought.

Storm

Well, the weather here takes a 180degree turn on a daily basis. Afternoon it can be very hot and in the evening it can rain cats and dogs and the weather is certainly not stingy with the lighting and thunder! Lightning and thunderstorms are occurring quite often and on Tuesday, my roof got struck by lightning. How unlucky. But at least look on the bright side, they say lightning never strikes the same place twice. So if based on that saying, my house is pretty much safe from future storms, hopefully.

JPA interview day

Ok, got up freaking early after going to bed freaking late the night before, I was so tired. I cannot function properly without minimum 7 hours of sleep. On Wednesday night I slept at 12.30am. Thursday night I slept at almost 1am. Goodness, it’d be a miracle if I don’t have panda eyes yet.

Anyways, picked up Sze Hsien and we’re off to Ipoh for our JPA interview. The ride there was quiet, I guess; with occasional conversations popping up every now and then in the car. I didn’t drive, it was too early and I wanted to rest, sleep and listening to my mp3, something which I have not been able to do during long car rides for I’m usually the driver.

For the interview, I wore Baju Kurung, as you can see from the picture below. Do I look like my mom? The outfit is hers actually.




This is the fish tank. I found it interesting, either that or waiting for Sze Hsien to collect her file was beginning to bore me out.





Sze finally came down to the lobby after almost 30minutes of waiting for her file.

Weekend

Well, I stayed back in Kampar last week instead of going back to Merbok for Cheng Beng and I can say it was utter boredom! I got so bored that I stated to take random pictures of virtually anything I can lay my eyes on-the houses opposite mine, the sticky notes I have on my wall, my laptop and even attempted to take pictures of lightning on Sunday night. However, my camera is not really suitable for night pictures even though the setting is already set at ‘night’, it’s still quite blur.

After Class, After Rain

Weather here now is slightly better compared to a few weeks ago. It finally started to rain! yay! this was taken after class on my way back home.




I would like to thank condensation for the blurry effect on the first picture. Lecture hall was very cold and somehow reminded me of Genting.




After wiping the lense, the picture became clearer.
