hey kiddo!
haha!
sorry fer saying that yoo all are kiddo..
but the thing ish that yoo all are young! strinqqists!
me and kor(Nikk) are old olreadi..
we realli never imagine dat we(me and Nikk) are 'transforming' into sec4..BY TMR!
2008..
two thousand and eight..
CAN YOU IMAGINE???
365 pass by soo quickly??
therefore, never think that a year is too long..b'cos it'll surely be a short one!
ie rmb somebody tell me this before..
" four years of secondary life ish considered not short but it ish not long either..treasure it and ie guaranteed yoo a happy four years time!"
at that moment of my life( dec2004,pri6), ie dun understand what this senior of mine ish toting about..how would she knows that..and even guaranteed that ie would haf a happy time? regardless of any school ie am enrolled in? it ish now that ie realised that secondary school haf a great deal of differences from primary school..and the greatest difference ish that you get to try and put in all your efforts on the things you are interested in..no matter ish it CCA or STUDIES..fer all the efforts you put in..yoo will get back something in return..ish it good results? ish it a grand achievements? or ish it something you learn and would never make the same mistake again? NO MATTER WHAT IS IT, HAPPINESS WOULD FOLLOW SUIT WITH THE RESULTS, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER IT IS GOOD OR BAD, BECAUSE YOU HAF TRIED YOUR BEST.
of course..
there would be regrets..
and ie haf lots..accumulating since secondary 1..
all the regrets ie haf fer these years are countless..
too many till ie can't keep tracks..
ie spent 6 years in primary school but the regrets that ie haf ish not even a quarter of it..
know why?
because humans grow up..
we learn to treasure..and to think of our past..
regrets and fears..these 2 words are the most fearsome words in the world..
jus the words..ignoring what kind of regrets and fears oneself haf..
because 'regrets' suggests one's past.. but one can never return back to the past to amend history..
while 'fears' suggests one's future..if you never overcome your fears, you can assumed that in the near future, you will possess even more regrets..
UTIMATELY,
'regrets' and 'fears' lead to 'uncertaincy'..
'uncertaincy' causes you to be unable to look into your future and is too ashamed to look back at your past..

THEREFORE,
strinqqists! STUDY HARD AND PLAY HARD!
though ie strongly agreed with Nikk that you guys muz haf play VERY hard throughout this year..( because ie play VERY hard together with you all ma! =X )
but it is not good trying to stress yourself up.. ( b'cos ie am those kind of ganxiong ganxiong de..so ie understand..haha! )
so lets study and 'play' hard together next year! to compersate fer the time this year when we shoulkd be studying instead of playing.. ( my 'play' means PLAY AND PRACTICE YOUR INSTRUMENT LARX! hahax! XD )

alright..
ie end my speech fer today.. XD
HAPPY HOLIDAYS & HAF A BRAND NEW HAPPY NEW YEAR! xD

llurves,
shumin

Hey there!

Never guessed I would have typed a post in this blog but here I am doing it. It's a busy year for us secondary four students as we have to juggle between the concert and our studies. Juniors, it's all up to you now to carry on the work we left you to do.

Ok, I'm not going to sound so serious. Come seniors, let's all sigh together. HAIIIIIX. Isn't it fast? We're taking our O's in like a few months time. Work hard!

Juniors, study hard too. You've all been playing hard so I don't need to worry about your leisure. But do learn to manage your time. Life in the upper sec is really quite chaotic.

To sum it up, really enjoyed the times we had and I'm kind of looking forward to the last few months with you guys.

From the only male member currently,

Nik.

PS: I had a hard time remembering the blog user and password so it took me 10 over tries to get in here.

yoZ!

ahh!~ school reopening soon!
4 more days to a brand new year..
5 more days to a brand new school term..
haiix..strinqqists,
do you feel that there is a very small part of you being excited,

but a bigger part of you being disappointed?
hahas..
but i can tell you that i am more disappointed than you,
and more nervous than most of you.
aiyo..so damn fast..
next year nikk, president and me,
yeah, it's ME,
we are turning 16 next year.
'O' level.. it's waiting fer us.
haiix..scary..
imagine..jus a letter 'O'..
and it scared me out of my wit..
and it scared many other sec4 out of their wit..
isn't this the most scarier thing you ever heard?
jus a letter nia..haha.
TIME DUN WAIT FOR US.
this is something i truly realised for the 3 years i spent in dunman..
i remember telling edmund that i wish i could become sec4 as soon as possible..
cos it is kinda of tired doing same thing everyday..
doing homework..practicing my viola..playing comp..talking on phone..
everything jus kept repeating..
jus a word can describe my life..
'SIANX"..
but during this holiday..
i realised dat maybe this kind of life may be 100x better than what my life would be after next year..would i be working? Or what?
Uncertaincy robbed the smile on my face.
The most scary thing in this world is not examination results, nor is it failure.
The most scary thing in this world is 'FEAR' & 'UNCERTAINCY'..
you had no idea what in the future is waiting for you..
maybe you are being ambushed by 'monsters'..
but you would never know till you walk to that point of your life..
i know that my 'O' level results would determine my future..
and it would be a compass for me to squeeze my way through life.

STRINQQISTS,
treasure your time in Dunman..
give in your best in what you do..
believe in yourself..
The concert next year would be a good chance to show yourself what you are capable to do..
what you are able to achieve..
My last performance would be the concert next year..
Let work hard together to make the concert a successful one!
KABATTE! :)

Beautifully stated....As we grow up, we learn that even the one person
that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will.
You'll have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time.You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken.You'll fight with your best friend.You'll blame a new love for things an old one did.You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love.
So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because
every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.

today we need to learn a new song - can can. i dont like that song cos only the violin part nice. nvm...then today we also went to the bubble tea shop during break then nik went to steal our junior the prata fish then after eating a bite he realised that he disnt order that. lol. in the end he had to buy another one for our junior >.<

then today edmumd went out with shu min + gracia + yvonne + gee man + others (forgot liao) to pizza hut. then edmumd kind of changed a lot. dont think our junior know him well.

anyway the concert is on good friday - 21 march '08 ms ong comfirm with us today. and we would most likely meet up with ms ong for about 1/2 hr on the 1st day of school so remember to listen out for announcement. if i remember correctly it should be for the sec1 (next yr de) recruitment thingy. and also string practices will mostly likely be on mondays and wednesdays so remember to not have anything on those 2 days!
