excuse

Just now I was studying Chemistry. I set a target that is to finish two chapters of Chemistry. Then, I talked to myself, if I can accomplish it, I'll go online as a reward. But at the same time, something flashed through my mind. It is something like if I cannot finish, I'll go online as a way to relax. It is an excuse. My mind made an excuse for me so quickly. If can, consider as reward, if cannot, consider as relax. What a excuse! I think I'm used to give excuse in whatever things I have done wrong. Haiz...

laze

Nowadays, I find myself harder to get motivated. I could not figure out the reasons. No more passion in doing many things. I think I'll end up like the japanese shumo if I continue to laze around like this. Just like mud, boneless and always lying around only. I have disappointed many people and I have lost many times. I can't really continue to see my condition now. A final word to myself: Wake!

Foun Da Theme Camp

It was a three day camp in Kem NurNikman. It was quite long ago so I can't really recall all the events. We purposely changed to the last group to be with the whole gangs of friends: Mason, Kelvin, Arrian, Chang Siong, Chia Yang, Jia Liang, Ming Heng, Jin Rong and I.

First, we reached the campsite in a rather bored condition. Erecting our own tent was the first thing we do. Yang, Chang Siong and shared a tent. After our lunch, we played the high elements. It was quite fun except the push-up part. Then, the highlight of the day was the flying fox. Our flying-fox was different. The common one was by holding onto something with our hands while moving downwards but we were hung like superman. And so, we did lots of styles like acting like superman or ultraman. Haha. At first, we climbed up a structure about three storey high. I took the plunge and experienced free fall only for half a second. Then I did the finishing touch by performing the swimming style. When we reached the other end, we had to cross the river back to the other side. The current is quite fast and I nearly fell. At night, we were blindfolded and asked to form a long straight line by holding the front people's shoulder. We were brought around the campsite. Orders were passed from the front like "Ada batu, angkat kaki, uphill, downhill, squad down, ....." Anyway, many other silly orders came out of nowhere. And when the order "squad down" was passed down, it spread so fast that the whole line of people squad down although only the obstruction was still far away for the people behind. It was so funny. We walked for almost 2 hours. The objective was to let us feel for the blinds.

The second day was begun with the morning exercise. Damn sleepy by that time. I think I was running with my eyes closed. After breakfast, we started some team building games. The first challenge was the spider web. We had to carry all people over the "web" without touching it. The second one is the land mine. We failed the game as almost 3 quarter of our group members "died". The third game was continued after the lunch. Given 4 bigs piece of wood and thick ropes, we were demanded to cross an imaginary river. So, we built something like a bridge to get pass to the other side. The last game was the electric fence where we have to transfer the whole team one by one over the fence to the other side. We broke the record! At night, we were brought up the hill to have a night view. The starlit sky was beyond description. It was so mesmerising. When we walked out back to the campsite, my friends and I nearly lost track of the people in front. We kept running and had to avoid the thorns from plants. I was so grateful that there was no rain that night. The night didn't end there. We had ghost stories-telling session. We circled around and started that session. After some times, we felt cold and retired for the day.

We were also awaken at the third morning for exercising. Then, we had three more games. In the first game, we were given two big sheets of clothes where we had to stand on it and kept putting the other one in front to progress until we crossed the finishing line. My group, Delta won. After that, we were divided into Kampung Minyak Wangi and Kampung Sampah. The situation was both kampung's villagers wanna get pass to the other side by crossing a plank, the "brigde". We had to cooperate by crossing the bridge without falling down from the plank. Lots of "hugging". The third game was the A-frame where there was a pilot in the middle while the A structure was pulled by four ropes controlled by other members. The pulling and releasing of ropes by certain sides would make the frame moved forward and continued progressing. Then, we tidied our stuff and kept the tent before departing back.

I have learnt quite a lot of things there. But the most important thing I learnt is KEEP FIT.

These are some pictures of my room in UTP. It is small and quite hot. I purposely spent some time tiding my room a bit before taking pictures. Haha.

Don't ever try to skip class

Last Thursday, I played truant. As my moral debate was approaching, my team mate and I decided to skip our two hour chemistry tutorial to search for data in the IRC for the debate. It was my first time in UTP, if I'm not mistaken. I asked my friend to sign the attendance list for me.

Only about fifteen minutes in IRC, I received a call from LJL, saying that I "kantoi" already. The tutor had already realised that someone signed for me as no one answered when he called my name in the class. Initially, I made my decision to ignore it. Anyway, the internet connection in IRC was so slow at that time, so I decided to go back to class. When I entered the class, I saw that my name on the list had been cancelled and the tutor asked whether my name was the one cancelled. The whole class laughed.

That wasn't the end. He directly asked me to do a tutorial question on the white board. No one had the answer and I hadn't done it. Anyway, I went out and gave it a try. I couldn't get the answer. Handing me the sheet with answer, he said "Stop torturing yourself, just copy it!"

@#$%!

So, I guessed my name will be painted black in his mind forever. Haiz, first try already "Kantoi"! I think I have messed with the wrong guy already.
