Thus Far

I guess this post would be a summary for the year. Before stepping into 2012 next Sunday, this would be a quick reflect on what have I did this year.

Jan: Spent first two week planning trip to Krabi, Thailand, went there third week of the month. Would really wish to go back there some day, really misses that place. Plus, Charlie rare a super huge dog now! ^^

 WHY YOU NO there when I was there? 

Feb till mid March: Spent most of my time solving my puzzle.

Mid March till April: RBS

Early May (9th of May to be exact): started Sixth form. 

May till late Nov: stressed and tensed up with sixth form life.

Late Nov till Dec: Tuition tuition tuition.

Now, more details, on major highlights of the year:

One incident I still remember clearly in my mind: The incident of me nearly died of drowning when I'm in Krabi, still pretty vivid in my mind.

One relationship I have lost: Friendship. Things became really clear when a person sees the whole thing. What I did wrong was knowing too much, what I hate was betrayal of trust. It doesn't really matter anyway now, simply take it as a passer-by in my life. Not easy.

One thing I really grateful for: My maths II teacher, I think she's the reason why God put me in form six. During my form 5, I would say I became very self sufficient, to a point that I think if the situation continues, with all the science knowledge I can store in my brain, I would become a strong Atheist. This also slowly forms a unteachable heart in me, one of my greatest worry. This teacher, I call her Puan Lim, she previously from La Salle, came to my school when I'm form 5 (but she teaches Form Six). I didn't get this teacher straight away though, after like one month plus I started form six she only teaches my class because the previous one went to further her Phd. She's guru cemerlang of DG 52 (to those who knows how teacher rank system works), has more than 20 years experience of teaching Sixth form maths. First class with her has only one word to describe, that word is SCARY. She literally screamed at us. When the class ended, all of us is like "What was that just now?" Now she had taught me for like 5 months, I would say I love this teacher, any pride attitude a student has in learning, this teacher can crushed it into pieces. She is very very strict, and to enjoy her class, basic maths foundation must be good, do all her works. IF a student doesn't do her work, and as lessons proceed, the student don't understand, the student is screwed, and can cry the next lesson (my friend cried). She pushes the student potential to the maximum, topic she had taught, she aims the student to be able to answer whatever question thrown to the student regarding that topic.The most important I learned from her is not maths theory (though this is quite important), but humility in learning, only she able to humbles me thus far. Moreover, She's a Christian. And lastly, she's going to retire next year, I simply don't take this as coincidence that I would be her student for her last one and half year of teaching. Truly grateful for it. =)

I can write a very very long post about my various teachers, but I think that will consume a lot of time, so guess not.

One thing I want to thank God for: Is to really thanked Him for sustaining me through this year. I practically running for time during the school days, so many things to do, yet so little time, and sometimes how hard I wish I could have weekends. Was really a struggle and challenge. I only get the chance to relax myself when I ended my finals, totally feel relieved. Currently halfway through my holiday, I think I wasted a lot of my time (like blogging this also took me two hour). But still, for everything I does,  I will trust upon the Lord, and all glory to Him and His alone.

One encouragement to everyone:  I have always knew this verse in my mind, and I have always hold strong to it. But never I know which part of Bible does this verse come from, until it became my Dec 18th devotion verse. Just simply to encourage everyone, whatever you doing now, do it for the sake of the Lord. I'm just simply a servant of His, doing what I'm good at, in fulfilling His greater purpose.

Romans 8: 28 "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God"

I'm excited to step into 2012, knowing beforehand it would one whole year of stress, tensed up and hectic schedule before I face my STPM, but yeah, I can't wait to finish my STPM. One year more to go! Is gonna passes really really fast, like how every year (or time) does. Cheers! ^^

p/s: I guess I won't have the time to blog until I finished my STPM, for it really consumes time. This post took me two and a half hour. So yeah, early wishing of Merry Christmas and Blessed New Year!

Discoveries

Discovery #1 Teacher who taught me Form 4 and 5 Additional Maths, teaching me Maths paper 1 now, is actually major in Biology. ><

Discovery#2 Teacher who is teaching me Chemistry now, is actually minor in Chemistry, major in Maths~!!! Asked why is she teaching chemistry now, she said because although she is stronger and knowledgeable in Maths, she think teaching Chemistry is more fun, since Maths is all calculation only. @@

Discovery #3 Teacher who is teaching me Maths paper 2 now, is furthering her studies in PhD~! In the subject of Chemistry~!!! What's the connection?? ++

Impressive, mastery of few subjects. Hmm.

Weekly Schedule

Just refer to below, a person can actually guess what am I doing during certain time of certain day, that's how mundane it is.

Monday:
7.30am-1.50pm-> Assembly Physics(3) MUET(1) PA1(2) MAT T2(2)
between 1.50pm-3pm-> rush back home, take bath, eat lunch.
3pm-5pm-> badminton.
5pm onwards-> rest, tv, read, study, do my own stuff.

Tuesday:
7.30am-1.10pm-> PA1(2) PA2(2) Chemistry(2) MUET(2)
1.30pm-2.30pm-> RnD *something useless implemented by useless education system of useless government.

Wednesday:
7.30am-1.50pm-> MAT T1(2) Chemistry(2) PA2(2) Physics(3)
1.50pm-> rush back home, take a bath, wait for bus
4pm-5.30pm-> Physics tuition at KL.
Around 7.40pm-7.50pm reach home.

Thursday:
7.30am-1.10pm-> Chemistry(3) Physics(1) MAT T2(2) MUET(2)

Friday:
7.30am-12.30pm-> Chemistry(1) MUET(3) Physics(1) MAT T1(2)
4pm-5.30pm-> Physics tuition at KL.

*numbers in brackets are number of periods of that particular subject. One period- 40 minutes.

Take note of Monday and Wednesday, where I actually have three period of Physics, that is equivalent to 2hour, life couldn't felt much more meaningless than during those time.

So far, I'm excited to go for tuition, since I just started. Oh well, everything new starts with excitement, soon enough it will become routine, and later on become habitual.

Till now still don't get what am I doing in Science stream. Feel like I'm studying just because I have the capability to do so. Well, guess I should just listen to my maths teacher's advice, study while I still have the heart to study, because a time will come where a person can't really take in as good as these ages anymore.

And most importantly, grant me a teachable heart, O Lord.




tired.

Sometimes I tend to say thank you / I'm sorry in a sudden to someone, I have solid reason to say these words, yet I don't like to tell anyone. I pen it all down :)

Krabi, Thailand : Bit by Bit : Scenery

" When Eiffel Tower had been captured by countless photographer from every angle, what value do we add in then by the picture we've taken? The only thing that can be declared as yours, is when you stand in front it, the feeling in your heart as you amazed upon it. That kind of experience and memory is cannot be replaced."
adapted  from, "Ambling to a Wayward Beat" by Liu Xuan.
