How does it feels being a year older?
OCTOBER 4TH: HAPPY 17TH BIRTHDAY!
Making a wish?
THE WRAPPER
GIFT FROM FIQAH

WARNING: DANGEROUS SUBSTANCE!
Time flies very fast. I can't believe that I'm already 17! Too bad that I didn't have the time to blog but... I'm doing so now! *grins*
Those pictures are taken on my birthday. Oh wait. Except for the gift wrapper and the gift itself - Which is a day after my birthday.
Anyway, I'll like to thank everyone who has wished me, people who had leave me a comment on Friendster, sent me a text message... Most of all - MY PARENTS!
Oh wait. Not forgetting Shu Min and Fiqah for giving me gifts. Though I may not have as many gifts as last year, however, I still do receive some and whatever it is, I'm thankful for it.
THANK YOU!
Moving on now... I think this month is going to be a very busy month. I'll be very busy with CCA. I may have to sacrifice my time too. Meaning to say I may not go online as often.
What can I say? Production is next month and we really have to have more practice. I really don't know if I'm ready to do this but I hope I'm able to give it my best.
I don't like lead roles. To me, to be given small parts or anything like that is fine for me.
Hmm? I guess drama is part of me? Hmm... When I was young, I like singing and in primary 1, there was this skit competition. I was sort of excited with the idea when we were told they'll be a skit competition representing your class.
I remember my teacher announcing to us that she wants one actor only for the skit. I really can't remember how I felt but frankly, I want to be the one. Wishing I'll be the lucky one.
On the other hand, I remember telling myself - Oh dear. Is she going to pick her? ("Her" - refering to my monitoress, who is actually my friend)
I told myself that I won't be the one. However, to my surprise, my my my... I got chosen! That was a surprise. I was excited. I remember smiling as I couldn't believe what had just happened.
I guess that's where I sort of think that drama is quite fun if you enjoy what you're doing.
In Primary 2, my school had this "Speech and Drama" lesson. Darn. Those memories. I miss them! I guess that's how I started to like drama.
Well... Those were the days. Looking back at it, it makes me smile and I'm quite proud with what I have gone through. It's a learning experience for me. I really appreciate it as it somehow makes me a better and stronger person.
Sometimes in life, we don't see the things in front of us as we may not understand why it works that way. However, these things that we encounter may be something useful to us in future or something that's for us to gain experience which may be useful in handling situations in future.
There's always a reason behind to everything.
I guess we have to be a positive thinker. Maybe that's why I'm quite an optimist.
Well? Sometimes in life, the people that you know change. There's always two choices to it. For the good OR for the bad. At the end of the day, it's your decision.
As for now... I just want to be myself. I don't like the idea of being a copycat or anything like as I feel we're all unique in our ways - why copy others?
Make a statement: Be you, just be cool. Keep it real and think outside of the box.
People can say things about you. As for me, I try not to be bothered. I feel that those people who say nasty things about you should just shut up if they don't know you well.
Oh well... Anyway, I went back to school this morning (yes, again. For the fourth time this week; even though it's a holiday!) for Cyber Guide. Met Fiqah at about 8.15AM then we walked to school together.
Our objective is to guide the middle age people (Ok, some are quite young) to use the Self-Automated Machine (S.A.M) and the Access Machine (AXS).
Boring or interesting?
Well... Personally, I feel we can also learn from it too. It was a little awkward in the beginning to start a conversation with someone older than me. However, I tell myself to take it as if I'm talking to my parents.
Of course if they're my parents, I'll not be too serious but hey, the key word here is RESPECT.
If you're nice and if you treat others with respect, mostly the other party would do the same too.
I'm quite pleased that Mr Vincent and Mdm Angie are nice people. I'm actually quite shy but I also don't want to be a bad entertainer so once a while I do start a conversation with them.
I hope by that I did somehow entertained them.
I don't know how one may look at it as. For me, my parents doesn't like to talk a lot but at times they do talk a lot. I guess it depends if it's interesting or not.
Whatever it is, I gave my best and I was being as friendly as possible.
Frankly speaking, I don't often use those machines. My father does use the Access Machine (AXS) to pay bills. I don't think I ever use that but I've ever used the Self-Automated Machine (S.A.M) a few times.
However, I feel that the Access Machine (AXS) has more features. That is in my own opinion!
Well... It was quite tiring for me as I only had about 3 hours of sleep and straight away after that I have to meet my mother at Bedok. So I went to change my clothes before heading to the MRT station to take the train to Bedok.
It was tiring for me and I feel drained. Especially it's still the fasting month!
Well... I guess I was strong enough to get through it the whole day. *Evil laughter*
Alright, I shall end here for now.
"So long and goodnight!"
