Hardwork- Paid Off!

Today is 27/1/08, and i m here to write on my past few days experiences.. I know lots of ppl do not have the mood to look at blogs, cos its either this or that.. Which is related to their GCE 'O' Level examinations results.. But for me, i will also touch on this topic.. Cos i think i deserve it..

24/1/08, the day when the results were released... Ok, on that day itself, i had my breakfast at 10am.. At 11.50am, i was alreasy dressed and went to SI MA LU KUAN INN temple to do prayers.. Oh, someone will definitely say"Stan, u think after u pray the results will change ah? Pls, its already printer".. Its really true, but at least it gave me a peace of mind.. I felt good after praying..

But when i was on my way to the school hawker, Ian sms me.. I was in the train listening to music in the train and i received this:I jus heard that the 5nadidn't do well the year.. esp English.. MSG 6.7.. siao liao.."

I believe if u r the one seeing this, ur heart will definitely pound even faster.. I was already nervous and saw this news again, the blow was big.. Furthermore u should know STan's English is utterly bad... At the point of time i felt really lost.. I had no confidence in myself at all and predict that i will get D7... SIgh..

I had no appetite.. Even if u give me shark fin soup, i will still shun off.. But i drank a cup of sour plum juice.. Felt better.. On my way to the hall, its really very fast.. Once i reach the hall, we were told to sit down...

5 mins later Brenda Tan was at the scene.. I saw her giving out chocolates.. Once i saw that, i knew it was for her distinction students... She gave to Ian, Chan Lin, Bryan and Shariff.. She saw me, i was hoping for her to give me, but she said" U missed it"..

There goes my distinction club... Sigh.. So ya, after Ceicelia's words, its time for results.. Miss Lim Soo Ling "Amm Chio".. So i went to a corner to see my results.. I expected the 1st line to be a Seven... But it was a FIVE!! Waa i felt really good.. Secondly i saw 3 A's.. But i was looking whether they include my Maths.. But i can't see Mathematics.. So which means 1 actual fact i will get 4 As.. So i dashed to Mr Chia and Mr Ho to ask them whether i m considered 1 of the Distinction Club members.. HE said yes.. So i put down my name and contact no. and continue to view my results..

English Language FIVE C

Combine Humanities TWO A

Science(Phy/Chem) ONE A

Principles Of Accounts TWO A

Chinese THREE B

Chinese(Oral/Aural) DIST -

Saw someone cried, some smile.. Lots of expression in the hall.. But i m really happy for my results.. I think my hardwork had paid off.. Really, esp for English and Combine humans... Went to Thank Brenda Tan and Mrs WOng.. Brenda forgot i got A2, she thought B3.. Scare me man.. Phew.. Below are some words to my fellow peers:

Rups: I know u r very sad for ur Maths, but trust me, u can get into a course de.. I know its a blow to u but u have to face it.. I think u will be stronger after this.. U r definitely not low standard, perhaps this time is a small fault which can't be ammended, but ammend it in POLY.. I say u can de.. =)

Kat: Hmm, u did well but dun forget u r at the verge.. So u need to JIA YOU also... Hope u r not complacent.. =)

Jas: I know that day u r unhappy with me bcos i talk too loud about my results despite the fact that i did well, but i jus wanna say in future where u go, u have to buck up already.. Most importantly dun give up, there will always be hope... =)

Sista: I know u r disappointed that u can't get into early childhood cos of ur English, but dun be disappointed cos u still stand a very high chance to get into the poly compared to the others.. So i hope u will continue to stand strong and not let this incident affect u.. =)

Kenny: I really envy u despite the fact that u did badly.. BUT do really consider wad ur aunt say.. Go for it but u must Stand up.. U can de... =)

Yi Pei: I wish u all e best la, u can go into Poly de.. Remember jus F into any course now, then in poly work hard, overtake others... =)

Willy: I think u dun deserve those marks.. But this time round the reality is playing tricks on u.. I can't help it.. But u still can go poly de... Get good grades in polu lor.. Ok? =)

As for others, i wanna wish u all the best... ITS NOT OVER ppl.. Just like the song on my blog.. =) Now for me, i m in a dilemma which JC should i go.. The past 2 days i was confused, JC or POLY? I put all the factors to go to poly jc but in the end, poly lost, i think i m trying JC... If let say i fail my GP or 1st yr(touchwood), then no choice re take poly, but at least i tried!!

Till now, i think i will put the following choice:

1st: CJC

2nd: SRJC

3rd: JJC

4th: Accountancy(NP)

5th:Tourism & Resort Management(NP)

6th:Banking & Financial Services(SP)

I m really vex.. I know JJC is good, but then SR is nearer and i may cope better in terms of standard.. JJ is quite far but its a better JC... My tuition teacher encourage me to go JJC, for ur future.. So i think thats it.. But 1st choice put a better JC and its the nearest to my house.. I know i will not get in but just try..

I may not get into JJC, but most likely a yes.. I m prepared to read all days for GP, study very very hard for other subjects.. SOme may think STAN i think Poly is better for u, cos ur English u know... As for me, i consider that fact but i think i will give it a shot.. If die, then Poly is still there... Time is not a problem to me... So long as u can do as well as others, its not a prob, like u see i m a sec 5 student, i did equally well as the Sec 4 express...

Ok, enough of this... After this i will bring myself back into the CHINESE NEW YEAR mood.. Its round the corner.. I wanna enjoy it b4 JC starts.. So see ya ppl..

Once Again!

Hello i am back.. Quite contented with the replies as i know i wouldn't get much replies from the ppl.. Anyway regarding the Crumpler bag, erm i think i m going to givw it a rest first.. WIll purchase it after Chinese New Year... And i think i m going to get the Orange/Green one.. Ya =)

Talking about Chinese New Year, its just a stone throw away.. 2 weeks? Probably.. But before i put myself into the happy mood, i have to cross over an obstacle 1st before i go.. At the time i think u guys know wad i m talking about.. I know its not good to mention that but everyone has to face the reality.. Yes, GCE 'O' level examination results will be released this Thursday 24 January at 2pm... =(

Heard some of them say"Aiya Stan u scared for wad? I m the one that must scared la, u sure pass and do well de lor.." Hmm, ok perhaps i m good at some subjects but my ENGLISH? I tell u my english is really bad.. Yesterday when i received a sms from Kat about the result day, i dun have the mood to work at all.. Just being restless throughout the day, doing things wrongly and quite forgetful.. Sigh, wad can i do? But that is the fact, i have to face it... If English D7-BYE BYE!! A pass- Yes!! No matter wad grade for English, so long as it is a pass for English, i m contented!!

Ok, after getting the results, i will have a hard time too.. Which is which course to take or to go to the college.. I will just put it aside from now, once i've gotten my result then i will decide, but it will be tough for me.. SIgh..

Alright, enough of this nervous issue.. Last week Wednesday 16/1/08, went to find Rups for lunch at Hong Kong Cafe.. Took 1.5 hours for lunch.. But luckily her boss not in, so ok... Ok, picture time...

That's it.. Next is on 19/1/08, i've gotten my Edusave Schorlarship award.. Erm, wanna thank government for that 500 bucks... Haha.. Now i have more $ and can buy more stuff.. =) And this year may be the last year i get $ from the government.. Cos JC/Poly is very competitve, so FAT HOPE Stan.. Pictures to remember!!

Only 3 students from Sec 5... Pathetic.. =) But who cares, so long as i do well i dun care about being shamed or wad, but yet i m proud of myself.. Yeah, this blur image is taken by my mum.. =X

November 5 Birthday Astrology
by Jill M. Phillips

November 5 people love things that can be proven by science. These Scorpios are natural researchers and students. They look for answers and cultivate knowledge to better understand themselves. Their clever sense of humor has a cutting edge, but they never deliberately hurt another person. November 5 people can be the life of the party.

Scorpio Information for November 5You should embrace: Good fortune, solace, facts

You should avoid: Questioning authority, materialism, sarcasm

Friends and Lovers

Although most Scorpios have a small, close-knit group of friends, November 5 natives need a lot of companions. They usually enjoy a stable but exciting love life. They often marry early, sometimes to their high school or college sweetheart. They are devoted to the idea of fidelity in marriage.

Children and Family

If there were serious problems in the family during their growing-up years, November 5 people realize they can get beyond the emotional scars. As parents, they are encouraging and helpful. While they don't push their children, they do understand their part in helping their youngsters feel good about themselves.

Health

People born on this date take good physical care of themselves. They eat well but moderately and are always looking for ways to maximize their workout schedule. Pacing is the key. November 5 natives generally prefer simple fare: meat, potatoes, and unadorned vegetables.

Career and Finances

November 5 people are doers and thinkers. They are likely to go with their instincts instead of analyzing everything before coming to a conclusion. They usually seek careers that require, at minimum, an undergraduate degree. They usually manage their finances, and they are generally the ones who set the budget rules.

Dreams and Goals

November 5 people don't do anything halfway or recklessly. They understand their academic potential, so that's usually where they put their faith. They are not career-driven, but they believe in living up to their potential. Where their personal life is concerned, they want the usual things: love, partnership, and children.

Everything Change!

Just as the firecraker shot up to the sky, this indicates a new challenge to me and also year 2008... I had a mix feeling in my heart when i see that.. Cos i m surprise that i m with my classmates this year to countdown.. Haha.. Ya, went to wach fireworks like last yr with Galvin.. Its nice but i m just can't believe that 1 yr had just gone.. Its like yesterday to me.. SO fast.. I hope to have a good 2008, but i m not too sure..

Y did i said that.. Firstly, i m with Jia Ming, Ian and Reza.. Actually there is more, but couldn't meet up bcos of the crowd.. Its scary...

Ya, thats the 4 of us...

AFter the fireworks, went to find the remaining ppl like Yong Chin Zhi Yang etc, but wad they told us was really very very contradicting.. They said 'wheel'.. And this stupid Stanley only know the BIggest ferry wheel in the world that one.. Where they r at the wheel just opp Marina Sq above City Link.. Sigh.. That made Jm mad.. But i was ok, just tired.. When we reach, saw them smoking and black face.. Oh gosh, i hate that, thought its was a mini gathering and have some chats, but no... SIgh

Next, i called Rups.. Thought of wishing her Happy New Year.. But, sigh.. I was super shock to hear that her grandpa went to hospital... In my mind, i felt really really bad for her.. Ppl celebrating, counting down for 2008 and she had to rush to hospital, worrying, panicking.. SIGH!! RUPS, be strong!!!! I will visit u and ur grandpa when its the time...

Next, 1st Jan 2008 day time, have to be present at my workplace.. Very boring.. Sigh.. Ya, then on 1Jan night, i was told to do paper work when there r little customer left, cos my partner serve will do.. Then this supervisor came to me and told me to shift the stock in the storeroom at the pillar to other places, cos tmr(2Jan)there will be firemen here to check safety, if anything blocking the fire extinguisher(place at the pillar), she will be in trouble.. I reluctantly shift it to other places.. So ya, i continue to do paper work..

After a while, she was here again, nagging at me to tidy up those stock, where they already very neat.. Instuct me to do this do that, i started to get pissed off.. Really.. After a while i told this to my another colleague, new comer.. Luck is not at my side, cos she happen to hear it and she sacarstically say"and then some more".. That point of time i tell u, she is really very very rude to me lor, raised voice at me, say that i talk bad things behind her where she is not etc.. I was at my boiling point then, i can't endure anymore and i retorted whatever she said to me..

In the end, she shouted"Call your boss, what type of attitude is this.. Not happy working here u can leave" I said i m very happy working here.. Then i hate her when she told my boss that i m rude, told him to sack me if i m not happy working there.. Luckily my boss is understanding and he told me"Dun think too much, nvm, just dun talk to her in future, so after that it will be fine"

But in the end she still stand there and eavedrop what i said to me boss.. Sigh, Then i said"Sorry la, sorry la can or not" SHe said "u r not sincere, i dun need u to force urself to say" AFter hearing this, i burst..

I shifted all my stock into my place, i dun care, i just wanna prove to her that i will clear all the stuff all at 1 go.. And i did.. SHe shut her mouth... But after that when she was out, i heard lots of comments from the full timer, some say my full timer cause me into trouble cos if i dun do paper work, there wouldn't be today.. U should know Stan has high level of tolerance, but once he can't tolerate anymore, he will just throw himself out without any consideration.. But eventually i will lose to that opp party...

One female colleage told me, actually just now u r rude to her.. Moreover she is ur super visor, if Ivy(manager that control the ladies shoes) is not here, she has the right to tell me to do this do that, which means she take over Ivy.. After that, she told me to apologise to her, moreover we r working as 1 family, will be seeing each other everyday.. At first i was reluctant, but i think i should.. 1stly i wanna learn from this that i wanna learn to change my bad attitude, gain experience from there, so in future wouldn't happen again... Went to toilet to wash my face, and there goes..

When she is in the storeroom, went to approach her, said" Err, Lay Hoon ah, sorry that i raised my voice on u, i shouldn't have done that.. Probably i m feeling lousy lately".. And she told me lots of stuff that is very reasonable.. She didn't even scold me, she said i really change my attitude, in future it will help.. Then told me she did raise her voice at me too etc.. But as she went on, my eyes started to get watery...

After finishing her words, i walked off with a sorry to her.. She said "its Ok', went to my section and sat down.. Jus can't stop my tears from flowing.. Perhaps i m guilty? Perhaps i must learn something that is useful for me? Perhaps thats ur life? Or wad? I jus need some time..

5minutes later, i felt better.. At least i apologise to her, if not i will bring this guilt all the way till??? But i really feel bad, even today, i still think that was a nightmare to me..

Ok, ppl, thats my day.. I hope in future(2008) will be better for me, eg. result day... Haha... Oh no, left 20 odd days to our release of O level results... HOW?????? How i wish i can go back to last year 2007 Jan to CNY that period... Study and enjoy at the same time.. SO fun.. But it all transformed into memories...
