The fun and relax time is coming to an end soon, one more week to go. From T03 to P23 all the people all the fun. Meet with a lot of funny people and know more friends. All the Marist’s guys and the St nick’s girls are all very fun. Never know that the school can be so fun. Hope to know more of them soon. We went out together, eat together, play together, even skip class together. It is a very fun to be around them. They can really find fun things to do.
But thank God that all of them manages to score quite well for their O levels and can go to a JC that they want to go. They are going to CJC, SAJC, etc. All the good schools. But must remember to study hard and do well for A level. Don’t play too much and skip class. Hope to meet up as frequently as possible. Lets go to the playground and play and even KTV. For those staying in YJC, we can go play more often. You can find me in the school and we can have lunch together and I can tell you stories about the school. But I only know a few, gossips I will know better.
This year the Badminton team is going to make it big. With the people here and those to come, I promise to make our team famous and strong and be known to others. Even to be a core CCA soon. The bond of the team and the friendship we have shall grow.
A note to all those who want to know me, never step on my tail or you will suffer alot with me and your life wil me very miserable just like someone or sometwo in P23. Never speak or your words will be used against you. I can kill you with my words and my actions, so beware. Also don't let me hate your attitude or you will just be like ****. And if you have a problem with the teachers, you might just be a friend of mine.

what is actually brotherhood? watch this movie by jack neo, i not stupid too. Tom and cheng cai have this group of gangster friend who talk about loyalty and brotherhood. but when the both of them are in trouble and needed help, all this so call brother are no where in sight. This word brotherhood is made big by all the hongkong movies. All the gangsters and ah bengs all talk about loyalty, brotherhood and yi qi. But what is all this actually? During troubled time, who can you really look for? Is any of this 'brothers' around?
We all look at this word too big. Many a times we think we are very hip and trendy or even that we are very loyal to call someone brother. It is precisely too common word that we forget its true meaning and misuse it. The dictionary defines it as a male who has the same parents as another or one parent in common with another or one related to another by common ties or interests. Lets take a minute to think if all this fits. If not, what then is your brother to you. Lets not just think you two really match the bill, but ask someone else. Someone who really know the both of you and not think that they know. Talk is cheap and only actions is worthy. So lets put words into action and act by it.
We must also check ourselves if we can really commit to this brotherhood before we go head on into it and regret later. People, how old are you to know what is brotherhood all about? Do you know what it is like to really depend on your brother to live? That you can't do without him and that both your life is connected. If he die, it spells the end for you too. No one in our time have really experience this. So how can we know what brotherhood is all about? How can we use the word if we don't know the contract that comes with it? Many a times it is too common a word to be misused by all. The reason is that we think we know what it meant and that we think we know how to use it. It is like kids who have just learn a new word and is very excited and eager to show off to the whole world that they know the word.
Sad to say, only a few small groups of ah beng really know the meaning of brotherhood but they use it in its negative concept. Nevertheless, we should applause them for really understanding the word and able to put it in use. In this world, it is not those who can really study that is smart but those who is living in the worldly that is smart. They are those who can really live life as it really is meant to be. Booksmart are those i despise the most. I hate those that tell me they like books and studies. Lifeskill is what that is important and those who can study are those who can't handle lifeskill.

It has been very long since I last posted and this time, I am inspired by a movie I have just watched. “wait till you are older”, I bought this vcd very long ago but only get to watch it now.
Many a time we see things on just one side of the coin. This is often the side that we want to see, the better side. When we are young, we just spent time doing what we want, that only benefit ourselves or what we think will benefit ourselves. Like we buy things that we think we need and don’t think about if it is really what we need or can we use the money for other better investments. We act as if we are still kids and on our own wishful thinking. We think that the whole world is not on our side and starts to rebel against everything and everyone and even let down those who care. But when we are on the path of no return, all this comes back to haunt us. All that we ever did that we regret doing.
In the show, Andy Lau as a kid thinks that his stepmother is the bad guy to his family but as he accidentally takes in this growing potion into his body, he ages quickly. He then got to know the truth behind his family. But he is too late to regret. He is at the end of his walk and just in time, he is able to bring his family together.
We can learn from this that we should never look at things from just our own perspective. We should get ourselves involve to know what is really happening and not just stand by the side and start blaming everyone for losing the game.
In the show, there is also another lesson we can learn. That is from the basketball team. Everyone is part of the team and even if he/she is not as good as the rest, we should also give them the chance. Many a times, the person is up to the job but it is the rest that makes him/her feel that she is unable. That is why we should always encourage our team member. If we put them down all the time, the one that losses is always the team. We should give everyone a chance and not start condemning and kick them one side. If we give them the chance and train them up, they will also one day grow strong. If the team is united, nothing can stand in their way. For example, YJC’s soccer team. I really think that they are very united. Using the same bag and always hanging out together and also keeping close contact with each other. This is why I think makes them such a strong team. I also hope to see the badminton team able to do so and one day become core cca.
In life, it is also the same. We should be united in all walks of life, be it in class, work, friends or even in any group. United we stand, divided we fall. Unity is all that matters.
