This song was released in year 1999 . That was 12 years ago . I was in Standard 5 . The blur-est , most quiet kid in the class .
After 12 years , I believe , I still am that kid .
I remember that year vividly .
I was the top of my class when i was in Standard 1 . But , that only continued till the end of that year when i was in standard 1 . Some kid from KL replaced me . >,< Since then , I was ,most of the time, in the 20th to 30th position in my class of 40 plus . And it was that year , when i was in Standard 5 , that i decided to complete my homework everyday and study whatever my teacher taught me in class when i came back from school . When my end of the year exam results were out , my teacher was surprised . Heck , even my parents were surprised ( actually, it was more of a shock ) that i improved from my 23rd position to 7th in class . I remember my teacher praised me for the shocking improvements i achieved in my studies . The turtle has finally came out from her shell to face the world .
From then on , i was encouraged and motivated to learn . =D
I can’t remember much of my primary school years . All i knew was that I was very quiet . My teachers would say that i didn’t want to talk because i had gold in my mouth . I bet they wondered if i should have been placed in a Special Needs school =) One of my neighbour , who was also my secondary school mate , use to tell everyone how quiet and shy i was in primary school . He always told the others that whenever he came over to play Sega with my brothers , I would miraculously disappear . Actually , that’s really what happened . When guests came to the house , i would run upstairs .
I guess i was really shy and insecure back then .
Despite being that quiet , i still had a few friends . Tan Jia Yi . She was my best friend . I remember Jia Yi and I played basket ball during the PJ class one day . We were in the same team . I was near the hoop , so she passed the ball to me . I don’t know how but I accidentally sprained my index finger when i received the ball . And i could not throw the ball properly into the hoop due to the pain . I remember my PJ teacher giving me an expression indicating something like “how could you have missed that ” … My index finger was swollen for 2 days after that . And that was the last time i played basketball . Hence , i never grew any taller after that . >,<
After 12 year , i still am who i was . Maybe with slight changes here and there . But i still feel that i am that quiet , insecure , low self-esteemed kid when i was in primary school . I try very hard to change . But i guess it will always be part of me .
Its not that being quiet and insecure is wrong . But , you know , i think its only right to speak our minds and build relationships with the people around us .
This song is very special to me . 12 years . In these 12 years , i had listened to it more than any other songs . Not throughout the whole year . But many times in a year .
This year’s annual affair with the song came in December , the most wonderful time of the year =) I love this song ! Makes my December the more special .
I finally know the outcome of my doubts. I’ve been waiting for this for 4 weeks already.
Results weren’t too bad. Didn’t meet my expectations though. I wonder which questions I did wrong for the orthopedics theory paper.
Clinical examination was OK . . Enough to reward myself a brownie and a tuna bun =) Kedai Kek & roti imbi sells the most delicious buns in town . LOVE at first bite !
Having clinical exams for pediatrics on Wednesday ! No expectations this time. Just want to get over it. Despite the fact that i’ve been having a lot of fun in Pediatrics posting , I still can’t find a connection to it . I don’t really know how to examine a child’s abdomen properly . I would really love to go through Pediatrics again . My problem now – i don’t know how to present my case .My timeline is always wrong . My lecturers never have an idea about the crap i’m talking about when i am presenting .
Hmmm.. I’m going to have a major problem on Wednesday .
Life’s been a roller coaster. In just these 4 weeks that had just passed , I experienced the extremes of all emotions.
Have you ever had a crush on someone you hardly know ? Well ,I did. How ? I don’t know. Have you ever felt attracted to someone just at sight ? Well , yes , I did. But , yeah . It’s just a crush. The pass 3 weeks I’ve been distracted by this crush I have. Looking back this 3 weeks. I think I just saw the teenager in me. The infatuation over the guy really took hold of me. I could not concentrate in the things I normally did. I was overwhelmed and excited because my crush was chatting with me. As silly as it sounds. I was really happy whenever I received his reply. Damn. Don’t laugh please…that was joy of a different nature that I have not felt for a long time. Wait. I never felt that kind of joy before.It’s that kind of joy you’ll get when someone like Lee Hom comes to talk to you. But sadly. My crush got attached to a senior of mine just today. Quite sad right… but well ,again… It was just a crush. So , my guy (hopefully there is one in future) is still roaming some part of earth.
I was so distracted by the excitement I was feeling , I grew so fed up of myself. I was angry because I was so easily affected by things like this. Sigh … And I was angry that the guy opposite my place was bugging again. I don’t know why he is so persistent. I wished he would just give up already. Move on… Like how I’m moving on from my crush XD.
Actually sometimes , I think that God really jokes with us. I learnt that you’ll never get the love from the person you like. The guy likes you so much but you don’t like the guy. And when you like the other guy. The other guy doesn’t like you pula. It just shows that we humans can only plan so much but at the end of the day , we can’t control God’s plan for us.
Dearest grandpa just passed away on Monday. Sigh … Grandpa’s not here anymore =( I would always remember grandpa saying to me ,”阿意 你要用功” it never fails to motivate me to study hard to be a good doctor.
I’m emotionally drained right now. But I’m glad that I can close this chapter of my life.
It was ,nevertheless, a wonderful roller coaster ride.
Cheers !
p/s : i’ll probably not care who-so-ever sees this post or what they might think of me . Be it the guy, friends who might know him, my batch mates or my parents . But yeah .. as i said , im closing the chapter . This is the last discussion on the topic for me and i hope for you too . it ends with this full stop here .
I am going to get a new phone and a new sim card ! That is final. I can’t tolerate the key pad of my k850i anymore !! Typing SMS has never been such a torture.
And I’m getting a new number!!! The guy who is staying opposite my place is still harassing me !!! It’s just very disturbing to see his darn messages on days when I’m really messed up.
I really don’t understand what happened. I already explained to him. Heck I don’t even know when me and him clicked. I only met him once. Replied him a little. And I really mean LITTLE. And I basically ignored his messages throughout the whole sem 6 and now sem 7. Walao eh !! Reaching half a year already ok !!! And I don’t know why he still SMS me when I don’t give him any replies. Crap!!!! It’s like my handphone’s infected with a Trojan virus you knowwwwww . Getting all those SPAM smses.
It’s especially disturbing when he sends SMS as if I am his girlfriend. When I am not even his good friend. It’s especially creepy when he looks over our place and comments on what we are doing. How to go on tolerating such things ??These are only part of the things he sends. These aren’t the most disturbing things that he has sent. It’s too gross to be repeated or recalled. Plus I wouldn’t want to store a memory like that here.
I am sorry. But I think he needs God really badly. I’m serious.
It’s like he is infusing testosterone into his bloodstream !! He needs psychiatric help too.
