Reflection 10

My final words for the whole of lifeskill is, in life indeed there are certain things that we always neglected. when we are doing well and good, we often forgotten that there are always people out there who needs aids and help. This is where lifeskill comes in place, it's a good module that encourages us to contribute to society, we did a lot of things when we're doing lifeskills. This world, everything that happens, we're all connected in one way or another. By doing good deed, in turn, we're influencing people to be better to us. i believe kindness begets kindness. Overall, i'm happy with everything i've did in lifeskills with Mr Hirman.

Techniques of studying varies from individual to individual. For my case, i like to put myself into a good mood to really study but it doesn't work all the time. As i'm a very active person, it's very hard to really put myself into a calm mood to really concentrate. I'm easily distracted as well, cannot tolerate any noise or people talking around me. What i do to really study is really to memorise as much as possible and try to have a good night sleep. sleeping early has a tremendous effect on memory. that's about all.

Today after we took our SVE mock test, we assembled at the foyer to board the bus to proceed to botanical garden. it was quite boring, i was rather looking forward to the trip but was disappointed, activity was just alright. was caught by the bad weather as well, further dampening the mood :( bad day , bad mood :(

Reflection 7: My Ideal School

2010-02-08T04:17:00.000-08:00

My ideal school is to situated somewhere near my home so it's easily accessible from my home, as i'm dread of going over far distances to school and i want it to be air-conditioned as the weather is really warm and it's hard to concentrate with the heat, just a comfortable environment cohesive for studying is enough.

When we're all heated up in sport, people just get so carried away by the game that they don't realised that we're playing with just friends, it's good to play on a competitive level but not too rough, as a result , my hand was sort of scratched by a classmate's teeth, it hurts haha. Even though we had the minority of the guys , we still won. That was something that i'm very proud of, with all the good players on the opposing team , we still managed to win!

My group have decided to go to the orphanage. Our objective is to show care and concern to them. We are going to have activities such as team building games such as a person have to fall backward and the rest have to support the person who is falling down, handicrafts by Hui Ting and magic show done by Fariz. One of my team member, Mei Shan, is going to teach them on how to bake a cake. Lastly we going to end the visit by giving out a little token or souvenirs to them. From this activity we hope to gain a better knowledge about them. We want them to know that we really care for them. From the activities we going to conduct, we strongly want them to be a better person.
By the way I am fine with my group members, they are people who I think I can work with or perhaps they tend to be lazy at times. I am sure that once my leader, Poh Ling has allocate the tasks, my group members will commit to it. I know that in a group there confirm will be disagreement but we must know to overcome it. So I am really look forward to work on this project.. =]

Yesterday , all my troubles seemed so far away. Just hope that things will get better everyday, regardless of whether school, work or relationship. Hope i'll excel at all. Yesterday seriously, i was quite pissed about how teacher told us off. That is definitely not the only way that we''ll perform best. There are many methods, as everyone is unique and different just like fingerprints. We all manifest our abilities and strengths in very different ways. Just hope that he'll understand us more. It's not that we don't care, it's that we might be a little bored as the activity wasn't new to us. I could recall i did that at least 3-4 times before in my life. We tend to be more complacent. It's not that we're lazy or what , it's that it's boring after doing it several times. Just hope that everything can be better, especially for lifeskills.

To me teamwork is a essential thing in life, there are challenges impossible to man, yet we managed to conquer these challenges by teamwork. Getting with the right team isn't easy as well as we all work differently, it is hard to get the perfect team. Yet we are trying so hard to strive towards perfection. It's remarkable, the feeling and the achievement you get after you managed to overcome the various obstacles. I like to work together with my friends, we can get very productive at work when we're serious.

[ A little more about me ]
Am i crazy or falling in love? is it really just another crush?
I dont think it's just a infatuation, i want to dedicate my effort and time positively because i know she's worth it definitely. Dont wan't to let her slip by me just like another stranger, i put in my best to let her know she still has me to rely on :)

You have stolen my heart .

Reflection Two

Yesterday was a emotional day. Most of my classmates feel down and some ended up in tears after sharing some deepest darkest secrets. I strongly feel that my problem is nothing as compared to my friend problems. I am the last child in the family and the most pampered one and always take things for granted. What I want, I always get. I just have to name it and my parents will purchase it for me. I really have to be thankful as no one else can get what they want. I cannot afford to rely on my parents any longer. My parents will soon leave me and I will one day start a family and I have to be the head of the family and I cannot rely on anyone except my own. What I have learnt is that in life, one should be brave and independent. Life is full of hurdles and one has to know to overcome it although it is easily said than done. We should not back up. There is definitely a solution to a problem. Be strong and move on with life. Only you can change your future.

Reflection 2: Our most vulnerable moments

2009-11-02T23:28:00.000-08:00

Yesterday, I just realised how fragile we really are and yet I don't even know about the past of some of my friends. It was an eye-opener i could say it, to really listen to what they've gone through. I felt like crying when i heard them, i believed many here would do the same as well. I know it's hard for them to really move on with what they've experienced, i know we cant really understand the exact pain they felt but nevertheless, I was really touched. Many of us puts up a brave front just to disguise our unhappy past or a heartache. But unfortunate things do happen to us so we must learn to move on, that's what i learnt from my past experiences. We must take things in our stride and progress, that's most important. We can't be crippled by this forever. Neverthless, it's a great sharing session, it just proves how fragile life is and how vulnerable human are.

The activity I gone through yesterday actually surprised me. We had to do teambuilding game. It was a quite tough and fun to encourage each other. I think the activity was meaningful. It’s good to bring lesson out of the classroom but I think the focus should be set in another direction. Yes, just like the activity, life is full of ups and downs. It is more saddening to say that i've lost a classmate and very good friend of mine yesterday. Due to what i would say is merely misunderstanding, it led to something much more complicated, She was retreated by the SH. Merely 10 mins, A friend for a few months is gone just like that :( Iwanted to help her but the inability to bring her back makes me feel even worst. Should i learn to let go or hold on to my faith? Nevertheless, it's a bad week with all the negative happening :( Hope that everything will be alright soon, let everything revert to normal!
