On the Way to a Smile

Just got back from Additional Math tuiton..Somehow..I cann't but help smiling..Thinking about those two hours over and over again..Yea..Though there were many stupid or rather pointless thing going on..

But still thinking bout it..Really made me wana laugh all over it again..
I actually suprised myself by not laughing then till my stomach hurts..
Coz normally I would have just done that..

I suppose those are what u call by human-antic’s..
In fact..If one were to be the silent one..
You would have realised many things by than..
For example..Why certain people acted that way?Or what would one do if one is in that situation?
And what if it were to be vice-versa?How will you reacted then?

All these are probaly what I have learnt so-far during Add Math class..
Not too shaby actually..
Hahahaha..

I am on my way to a smile!!

Symphonic Poem of Hope

Another blogging session while searching for research materials for the upcoming debate competition state level..Gotta admit..Time do pass really fast ya..Already won the district level and now looking forward for the state held at Alor Star on the 6th of May..Really hope this time we can go all out to win or well at least try our very best..Everyone goal of coz is to make it all the way to national level at Sarawak on the 10th of June..Haha..Even Mr Fletcher say there is NO if!Just when? So kinda worried..On whether we all can live up to the expectations laid on us..But no point worrying now rite?Juz gotta wait till then and see..Haha..

Anyway..Today at school heard bout the news on several holidays that are gonna approach soon..However at the same time..It means that the mid-term exams and breaks are also coming soon!Dunno whether its a good thing or vice versa..But..Than again..We juz have to wait and see I suppose..Till then I seriously need to pull myself together and catch up on my studies..

It seems that of late I am like stranded on an island of some sort..Seems that I cann't even catch up on the uptakes of life itself..Felt so odd today..When in fact I should get used to it by now already..But have many things in life to look forward now...I suppose its the way of life..One can never seem to be satisfied of what he or she has..Must one need a solid,valid reason to do something in life?It seems that I am desperately in need of one..But then again..What happen when one found it?Does he or she desperately cling on to it?Or juz let it act as a Symphonic Poem of Hope?

Moon River, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style, someday
All dream makers, you heart breaker
Wherever you're going,

I'm going your way
Two drifters, off to see the world

There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbow's end
Waiting 'round the bend
My huckleberry friend, Moon River, and me

The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equaly lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.


TO be honest..This is one of the very few poems I actually like reading and that it also inspired me in ways that even I cann't explain..But again..I felt the poet is right in telling us that there are endless choices to be made and every choice has its consequences..And of course..Being humans..We tend to seek a mean to justify our decisions..And yet..AT the end..Is there an answer?And what if it isn't the answer that we have been searching for?And I, too has many choices to make..Yes..I had made many choices for so many past years and some I regreted and some I am happy with them..Its definitely a way of life itself..For years behind and also years beyond..

Anyway, I am still living through my life and doesn't know what things are installed for me in the future but I certainly hope that a few things in my life remain unchanged..Such as a few of my dear friends which I dread someday will be unsignificant or even forgotten in my life..I hope that one day as I look back into the past-probably reminiscing about it..I can atleast said that..YEA those are the good old days!

First Impression





I suppose if I am asked to describe myself right now,then it would be-
All these emotions in my heart are waiting for an opportunity to explode out..
A matter of time-and I will lose control of myself..
I wish dearly that by looking on the positive outlook on lives..
Like the green leaves above..
Can make me more appreciative..
But I can'nt..
So many things had happen of late..
But none of these are good news..
Instead..
Ills and problems arising after one another..
Dilemma and guilt haunting my very mind..
Though I know I am in no position to complaint..
But-I really felt there's a need for me to express myself..
One way or another..
Or I am afraid I will lose the only thing I have left..
My sanity..
Even though I tried to be brave and acts indifferently-
In front of all those whom needs me or even just as an outlet-
To pour out their hearts and grief..
I myself-is only human..
I know not how long I can carry on-playing this charade..
Ever I am there for others..
But who can I share my guilt,burden and my heart with?
The ever demanding of reality is really driving me to an edge..
I know not-how long I can cling on to this existent?
A non-existent..
I am really sory if I can'nt live up to the First Impression of others..
I am truly sory..

The Irrelevant Casanova

Yup,from now on I have another nickname or pet name for others to call me!

First would be my very own name of coz!
Second would be Matthew which in some way is not even my own name but oh heck,its given to me by my friends last year.Gotta deal with it one way or another..
My third name is supposely an insult to me.But nevertheless, I embrace it with open arms.'Drunken squid' was a name given to me when I was in Form 2 (meaning its been 2 years already)..But of late only regain back popularity since my whole class have a pet name either after a real animal such as pig,tortoise,dog and lioness while some even have names that are totaly abstract such as 'tiger susu',winne the pooh and the ever favourite, 'the stick'..
My latest pet name is of 'The Irrelevant Casanova' or the IC for short..I was given this name again by my friends (notice how it was never really my idea in the first place?) during our trip to Alor Star for the teacher's debate.I am the Irrelevant Casanova because my fav word while debating is 'irrelevant' and the 'casanova' is suppose to be a an honour or sworn-duty one might say to....

On another related note, in my previous blog, I mentioned about the second round or the final round for the teacher's debate at Alor Star..At the end,it was the Kedah's debaters that won against the Penang's debater.. They are gonna represent the Northen zone to the national level!Of coz wishing them good luck and may they try their best!

By the way their motion then was..
'Educational Institutions is the instrumental Key Determinant to a successful nation building'

But the real question dat they should be asking is dat,
'Does it really matter?' =P

A Whiter Shade of Pale

Just got home from Alor Star bout half and hour ago.Just ate my lunch wich turn out to be my dinner already.Going for tuiton later.So yea, it does seem to sound a bit of hetic rite?But to be honest dats kinda normal for the youths of today anyway.Nothing dat supprising.In fact I got loads of other people busier than myslef.From tuiton all the way to some school activities.Makes you wonder why and wahat are we are getting ourselves into these days! (sigh)

Any way,went to Alor Star today with Manimalini,Ben,Vj and Putra.And of coz all of us gotta squeeze into Mr Fletcher's Proton.You can imagine how we 4 guys squeeze at the back, but of coz Manimalini being a gal gets the privilege of sitting in front.So the reason we went there were to witness and hopefully pick a thing or two from the debaters at there.But to be honest, it was more like a shock to us (or only me for dat matter).It didn't really turn out the way I thought it would be going on.But oh well.At least we had loads of fun after the debate.From being harassed by a bunch of self-ego and testosterones-filled gang of Indian boys to juz plain drifting away while discussing bout our upcomming debate match on the April the 23rd.

For those people out ther who are intrested in knowing how the teacher's debate was..
It was basically an under-statement to the English word of 'debate'
Well partly becoz the Perlis debaters basically loose their heads to the Kedahans teachers from the very 1st minute they began.

After all the motion they are tabling today is..
'Teachers competent are instrumental to the student’s excellence'
Even myself was like what?-When I 1st head the motion.I mean is dat suppose to be a motion where a person with an average intelligence able to understand and comprehand?

On the other hand,tmrw will be the final round for the teachers debate deciding the zon level.It will be Kedah against Penang. ^_^

Wonder who will win??

Of Falsetto and Cappella

First of all let me start with making a statement:

Of falsetto and cappella..

Well,to be honest its more like random words put up together..But oh, well..It does have some co-relation with my day today at school..Supposely today is the 'final day' ot my school;s English Language Week..it ended with a singing competition in the lecturing hall a.k.a the 'Dewan Kuliah'..

And of coz due the typical 'malaysian attidude' I was signed in as the MC for this competition at the eleventh hour..But of coz I have nothing to complain about..In fact..Kinda feel like doing it all over again..Every moment of it is pratically of fun and humour!

As I mentioned before it was a singing competition of coz..But there was only six teams to be exact participating..The winner was Putra follow up by our very own Lollipop Candy Bad Girl a.k.a Joo Joo! Third place meanwhile goes to another malay group.. (so sory but couldn't remembe you guys punya band name)

Seeing everyone perform and thier skills at playing the different musical instrument raging from violin to the keyboard and also the guitar never failed to amaze me..I was pratically dum-struck,green-eyed and proud of them all the same time! (blek!) Guess it would be the 'power of music' itself,yeah?

Well I guess today turn out really great for me and everyone else.. So yea wouldnt mind re-living every moment of it again..But till I can actually re-live those moment in my dreams..I am suppose to prepare for my April exam.. (haiz..the never-ending cycle of life!)

But at the same time looking foword to the teacher's debate in Alor Star and also hoping you guys who are going over to KL for the F1 race to have a great time,ya?

A Lonewolf Silhoutte

Sometimes when you are all alone,
Your heart cries silently,
Wondering why and how?
It seems that missing the shallow rivers,
Brings about the mighty seas,
But sometimes it hurts you even much more missing a person,
You see and hear too much,
Yet unable to do anything significant,
Than your heart cries again because now,
The shallow rivers brings about,
Boots and its share of spoilt,
Somehow you realize the person you miss and the person you need,
Is of the opposite sides,
It just seems to painful a try,
To even let the person come near,
Because a heart is still a heart at the end and,
Stone can never replace those whom you miss and need dearly,
Arround you the air might seem thin enough,
To dissipate everytime you passeth by,
But with each of your silhoutte,
Comes my heart a cry,
Because of the darling loss of that,
Of missing a person is just too much to bear..
