Optimus prime

I caught Transformers 2 today! I don’t think Megan Fox is a guy, in every way she just looks like a girl. Anyway the movie was great except that I nearly fell asleep somewhere nearing the end cos I went back for prefects camp today. I overslept and only reached sch at 930am when the camp started at 9am and the planning comm went down at 8am, I am super sorry! Anyway I never quite liked prefects camp since the time I was inside the planning comm. Well because the time is too short for any serious fun interaction, too bad, no choice. But I do hope the councillors and the prefects all had fun together so you’ll build better kuo chuan school ties? I don’t know. I am a bit like very tired now. I just came here to show off that I watched Transformers cos actually I hate the show. HAHA BYE I want to watch Brides War and finish my homework. Bloody lots of MATH!

Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

在那个月色如水的夜晚，我听到了一个曾流转久远，震撼人心的故事:
在很久很久以前，有一对母子相依为命。 母亲很疼爱儿子， 以致对他百般呵护纵容。 有一次，儿子偷了邻居的东西回来。 母亲不但不责备， 还夸奖他聪明能干。 于是， 儿子一发不可收拾， 最后竟然发展成了一名江洋大盗。 后来他被捉，判了死刑。 临刑前，痛不欲生的母亲来看儿子， 没想到儿子疯狂地咬伤了母亲，并指责她说: “你生养了我， 却不教育我。 如果当初我偷了邻居的东西你不是夸奖我，而责备我， 让我明辨是非， 我怎么会有今天的下场呢? 我好恨你呀!”

I took this off one of my higher chinese papers, and it was the first time I’ve read that. When we were young, I guess everyone were told that 打是疼，骂是爱.. we all know that but we never quite comprehended why. Or maybe we were too much into thinking that we are always right. When I first read this, it related to me very well because, well, my mother and sister are right now on a cold war. Because she is my eldest sister, sometimes I tend to learn from her. I agree that sometimes our parents may nag a lot and get on our nerves..we may quarrel..but that passage came across very well. I read it more than a zillion times, partially because I have to do a summary of it and I couldn’t cut it down to 80 chinese characters after the 10zillionth time. It was too well written for me to cut down on it. In a way, I wish I had been a better daughter.. In another, I wish I came across this earlier. So now I guess school’s not all about books and stuffs, but at the same time, maybe you’ll get enlightenment like I do. I thought if only I knew this earlier, then again, I thought if I were to know this earlier, I might not have comprehend it the way I do now. Looking back at this holiday, it might not have been the most productive, fruitful or fun, but in other aspects, I recieved a lot of love from my family. If I were to say, my relationship between both my parents became better and I am glad. Perhaps it’s because I am not as busy as I used to be, running in and then out of the house. The moment I get home, I log onto my computer, stare at the television screen and everything else except talking to my family. The least I did was to show bad attitude thanks to an awful school day or an extremely workloaded day. In the past, it was all about balancing studies, council and my friends? I don’t know if I even balanced my friends in that case. Okay perhaps only work and work. But having always been a sentimental and people-centered person… well, people do grow afterall. They say family’s the best, and it never quite occured to me. I hope the passage will enlighten you like it did to me, after the 23421224 times of counselling from various teachers over the past year.

Another thing I understood and is finally convinced is something I’ve been crazily running away from because I don’t know.. I really don’t.

Yeah and DSA/DPA has been the hottest talk of the town amongst sec fours apart from the rumoured school closing for a week and all. I think I wouldn’t apply because I don’t know if I’d regret my choice and sad enough, I have no talents! No! Everything = no! Being sadded, I don’t think I’d apply. Oh and I bumped into Ruth just now and it was like after 3 years. Okay that’s pretty cool.
