Anyone miss my blogging of personal life?

I doubt so

But just so if there’s anyone who bothered, here’s my personal life statement.

busy

I’m done blogging about my boring life lol But I’m here today to put some pondering thoughts into everyone mind.

Oh yar, I hope for now everyone enjoyed the mini japanese lesson that I’ve blogged so far.

On Friday, something significant and interesting happened to me.

My sister, boyfriend and I were late for our japanese lesson since we were still in the office at 6:45 PM whereas our lesson commence at 7 PM.

So like what all typical people do, we hail for a cab.

JUst as we were crossing half way int he middle of the empty road, a taxi turn into our direction. so yeah , lucky us. My sis went out to hail the cab. The smart cab stop at the other end of the road and waited for us while we were crossing the road. My sis being the most daring, cross first, wherease her boyfriend and I saw a motorbike speeding down the road.

So I waited.. 

BUT he didn’t!!

He run across the road when the motorbike is so near us.

and guess what?

The biker panicked and turn his bike away from his path towards..

ME !!

Without Hesitation of even 1 milisecond, I run back to safety as the motorcycles get closer and closer to me stepping on his break frantically.

Hell yeah, a 10 seconds events seems to be an eternity for me.

I felt time slowed down, but my heart quickened..

yes friends.. people who cares about me..

I almost went to heaven to meet Jesus.

Because of this experience, I FULLY realize the meaning of, treasuring life..

Yes friends and skeptics, I know this isn’t the very first time you have ever heard this sentence.

But let this be a testimonial from me.

When you truly experience it yourself.. the statement definitely does’nt sounds the same as you heard it from your grandpa or grandma or some fella with words of wisdom.

Even though My life has been so up and down. But it has never been this close to death!

Death.. something that i cant comprehend anymore..

In fact, i’ve develop a phobia for motor bike that when I was crossing a road yesterday at Center point to MRT Station with Dilys, even though the motor bike is like so far away from me, I stop short. the horror again replay in my mind..

Thanks to Dilys whom I’ve told about my incident beforehand sensed that I’m afraid and assured me to carry on crossing the road..

Scary.. But thanks..

Then I really start thinking.. If I really did buang that time ah, I think i’ll miss all the stuff that is happening on earth.. to name a few..

FYP (I dont know why but yeah that is the first thing in my mind)
My Drum
My Family.
My Japanese Lesson
My friends…
My life…

it’s so scary.. I was suddenly afraid..

Being almost 21 years old. I’ve never considered about dying so young. Because like what the hell, 21 years old only man.. still got a long ripe age to go.

But no..

Life is unpredictable

It could be this instant.. or even at the moment when you are reading this blog..

who knows..

But to me..

Life will never be the same way I look at it again..

As I read someone’s blog, I agree with what she says..

Dont argue over small things anymore..

to quote a few from her:

Dont quarrel o’er money.
Dont quarrel o’er small li issues.
Dont quarrel o’er dirty laundry.
Dont quarrel o’er wrong cinema bookings.
Dont quarrel o’er pride.
Dont quarrel o’er another person.
Dont quarrel just for the sake of making watever relationships more spicy n hot.
Dont quarrel just to make urself feels like u’ve gt a hold on everything.
Dont quarrel thinkin that u can solve a problem.
Dont quarrel o’er taking one another’s belongings..
you might not get to see him or her after the quarrel..
Good Night dudes.

Ok from this point, it’s abit confusing..

Okaasan - Mother (Drag the two “A” for two beat before saying san)

So when exactly do we drag the key?

aa - Drag like aaaaaaaaaa
ii - drag like iiiiiiiiiii
uu - drag like uuuuuuuuuuu

ee - ee and ei drag like eeeeeeeeee
ei

oo - oo and ou drag like oooooooooooo
ou

drag all for 2 beats. That’s all.
Now time for numbers (suuji)!

0 - zero (like English ^^ but pronounced as zelo )

1 - ichi

2 - ni

3 - san

4 - yon or shi

5 - go

6 - roku

7 - nana or shichi

8 - hachi

9 - kyuu or ku

10 - jyuu

11 - juuichi

15 - jyuugo

16 - jyuuroku

17 - jyuunana

18 - jyuuhachi

19 - jyuukyuu

20 - nijyuu

so all the way same like 21 is nijyuuichi 22 is nikyuuni blah blah blah

Time for some question and answer!

Question: Ikutsudesuka? (How many?)

Answer: desu!

so ask people like this:

12 <- Point at this number and say iskutsudesuka.

5 + 3 = 8

Hachi tasu san wa Ikutsudesuka?

hachi desu!

so i introduced tasu which is plus!

now

40 - 25 = 15

yonjyuu hiku nijyuugo wa ikutsudesuka

jyuugo desu!

and hiku is minus!

Telephone Number: Den wa ban gou.

So what is your telephone number?

anata denwabangouwa nanban desuka?

ok that’s all I learnt today haha Plus I learnt all the different characters used in Japan writing. They call it HIRAGANA. It’s what we call it alphabet haha

Time to sleep good night.

It’s here once again! The second year that SUN organized a competition in Singapore. The JavaJive Challenge 2007! Last year, 4 people won the Championship of JavaJive and got themself a ticket to San Francisco plus $1000 in price.

And they are none other then the author of this blog himself and three other friends

So this year, we have been invited to give a speech to kick start the whole ceremony thingy.

Well, the feeling is awkward and weird.. Just like the whether.. in a moment, it’s sunny, then suddenly turn cloudy, then rainy, then stormy, then snowy blah blah. That’s how I felt through the past two days of my preparation all the way till the BIG day.

I’m surprised I’m have developed such fright that i wasn’t even able to make my speech in front of the mirror LoL. It took many courage and tries to get my speech correct.

But today, at ITE, I’m happy to thank God that even though I spoke a little fast, I’m glad that I didn’t miss out anything ‘cept one line Lol

“There is another team member Diendra who has already graduated and unable to make it today” 

haha I totally forgot about that part lor so funny

But hek lah I think I did fine presenting hehe Just need to work on the speed a little and I’ll be good

Due to unforeseen reason, one of the members has to return to RP straight away after the speech to do his UT. Thus, Sun book a MAXI cab for the member(s) to return to RP.

Guess what? that honoured person who get to sit in the Maxicab is ME! haha

Since Yi Jin lives at woodlands, she tong pang home too LoL.

Here’s some wonderful picture I took.

It’s a once in a life time kinda thingy man. I’ll be damn if I dont take photo

The cab that’s waiting for us when we rush down from our speech. Isn’t it wonderful?

Nothing less, just a Maxicab

Ya i know it’s blurry and shaky, apparently, the lady who helped us take the photo had a shaky hands

Yi Jin and I in the cab

  

The inside of the cab.. Just click on the image to enlarge

After rushing back to class, Chiong UT liaoz.

Sianz lor, Our faci taught us J2ME the OOP way, then stupid UT come out the Flat File way!

make me think until my brain almost explode. But Lucky I think I was able to figure it out before time out. Still got 5 mins left some more wor

Today is an unforgetable day. The day where all chiobus in school took notice of me. wahahaha The only day that will happen. LoL

I dont tell you guys why, go figure yourself

Tomorrow gonna miss lesson again. Going for Java Certification, Salary Rise (JCSR)

What’s that? No idea. Only know one thing.

opportunity

haha so just go for it.

i’m getting alot of X in school ler man jia lat! need to buck up next week and fight for my As! haha

ok Good Night I will change template soon.

I Surrender all to you..

haha I know.. I’m back to the same old topic that i’ve always talk about. But this time, Lee Lin, our new sister has brought an insight into my perspective regarding about this matter.

So, let’s recap abit, what do people always say about purpose in life? Let me try to recite a few..

find boy/girlfriend, then get married, got baby, then pass on to the next generation.

Preach the gospel to the world and let everyone be aware of the second coming of the Christ

These are all interesting purpose. But I think one key root point about all this is what struck me the most yesterday.

actually, us humans living in this world only has one purpose…

seeking happiness

One word.

Happiness

Just close your eyes and think about it for a moment and this will sink into you realizing the Naked Truth of life..

You might want to strongly disagree me in these issues. But I assure you.. Happiness.. is the one key word.. that ultimately..defeats all.. dont believe? MSN me and we’ll have a chat about it

But nowadays, I’m not really interested in a purposeless discussion. Discussion usually leads no where..

What after a discussion? you forget about everything haha and carry on living your happy life or sad life or emo life or whatever life..

I want to seek a happy life too.. But what exactly is happy In God’s eye for me?

For me to find out for him to know

Good Night.
