STPM Results :(


I've tried my best.
And this is all I've got :(


I know some loved ones are not happy with me though they're not saying it.
Maybe because I can feel their dissatisfaction.
But I can't stress how badly the paper was last year.

It was horrendous! :(
There were so many new unexpected formats and styles.
It left many of us clueless and blank in many questions, big sighs.

Here's what NST reported:
STPM results: More passes but fewer who scored straight As

I just feel upset.
Upset that I'm never good enough.
Upset that I've never meet up to those expectations.


As much as I feel like a failure right now, not all is lost.
I DID improve a lot in this final result!
Compared to the days were I'd fail 3 subjects in a row... :/


I'm still capable of applying for the Physiotherapy course in Nanyang Polytechnic.
I was always interested in that, but I couldn't apply for it with my SPM cert cause it was only for A Level or STPM holders. So, here goes.




And thank the Lord, I still can fulfill the requirements with this cert.
My SPM's Elementary Maths and Add Maths is 2 and 6.



So, we'll see where the Lord leads.
Keep praying for me.


That's all for today.
Ciao!

Finally posting up our song, have a listen! ;)

Hey guys!

Well, back in December 2005, my brother Benson, and I composed a song in about 30 minutes for a couple of girlfriends who were leaving us to pursue their studies.
And so, we came up with this song :)

A couple of days ago, without my knowledge, Ben already recorded his guitar playing and demanded that I sang on the spot before I went out... He seemed to finally have the time and learnt of how to do simple recordings and overlapping.

So, please forgive me, it's not my best performance, hahaa. I hardly had time to warm up! This could've been better as I only sang this twice before I went off. Ben then took the best clip, overlapped them and... voila!

What do you expect, the guitar playing and my singing was COMPLETELY recorded using the common computer mic!
LOL..

Lastly, we also wanna dedicate this song to my beloved soul sister,
Suvanya Sukumaran a.k.a Yap Sue Anne.

Hang in there babe, we love you much!
Keep in touch always, xoxo.




Personally, I suggest that you do not put your volumes to the max...
Hahaa, I think it's kinda loud... :/

Please enjoy!
Structural comments are most welcomed :)



P.S: To save you the trouble, here's the post from Benson's blog.

FINALLY THE TRACK IS DONE!
Posted by Drummertech

Well, I tried singing it...but this song is memang written to be sung by a singer with high range lol.

Thus, my attempt at the song failed. Anyhoo, while I am in JB I thought why not ask my sis (who is a great singer) to sing it for me? haha. Besides, she is the one who sang it when we presented this song specially for the two friends we dedicated this song to.

And oh yeah, if you hear any other sounds in the track...just ignore them. They're most probably the vehicles passing behind my house. (yes my house is just beside the highway)




Wherever you are,
Distance is meaningless to me,
Wherever you go,
I pray that the Lord will lead you on,
I know for sure,
God has a plan for you,
I know it's true,
We are one in spirit,
Wherever you are,
You will always be in my heart.

I pray, You'll draw near to Him,
I pray, You will reach your goals,
There's nothing,
You can't do if you just trust in Him...

Hope you guys like it. =)

Hanging out :)


Hot dim sum in Johor Jaya.
Very packed.




Uncle Greg: "Mai tan!"



Aunt Jolayne and Jolisa.



Jesse, Josiah and Joshua.


And of course, Jayden hiding behind his mum.



Early in the morning, my parents, Benson and I joined the Tweedies for home church and fellowship. We had some great dim sum at Johor Jaya, and then headed back to their house.


After spending some time with them, Ben and I joined Jerry, his aunt Aliena, and his cousins Erika and Jacky to do some shopping.

So we went to the Nike, Adidas, Al-Ikhsan and Reebok factory outlet where they were having a 70% discount clearance stock. Jacky needed a pair of new shoes, so we went to have a look.



Benson regretting he had no cash with him at all, lol.




So this was how he vent his anger and dissatisfaction...



Geez Ben... :/


Okay, he's finally done.
Headed to Jusco Taman Universiti.




Honey, what are you doing...? :)


Awww, so cute :)


Then we came across some shirts for dogs...


Hahahaa...




WTH..??!
......

xD


* * * * * *

The next day, we decided to go swimming at Hin Loong's place :D
I haven't swam in ages!
Hin Loong have been staying there since last year but he never even swam in his own pool before... lol.

Alasan?
Lazy lor.


Benson and Hin Loong plotting against Jerry...






Awww, so bad.... xD

Hey, check the videos out!
Have a laugh, enjoy.




Ramly Burger! Hahaaa....
We were gonna have that after swimming...




Benson getting killed by Hin Loong, lol.




Hin Loong dying after being saved, I think.
Lol.


Okay, we're done here...




Guess what, the Ramly stall wasn't opened, tough luck.
So, we resorted to the normal "mamak".
Hin Loong and I had a painful stomachache after having nan...
Just great. He was in such pain till he had to go to the doctor.
Don't worry, I didn't, and we're both fine now.




The kitty that was begging Benson for food... cute, no?



The boys' favourite past time.... Dota-ing -.-"


Engrossed as usual...
That's about it.
Ciao! :)
