My Love For Fencing



OMG Harry stop it your smile is killing me! Ginny is so so so so lucky to marry you! And to think that you used to make out with that terrible Cho girl! But I was still burning with green envy when I saw that you had children with Ginny at the end of that last movie. I should stop having crushes on fictional characters now.

Today is a good day because although it is a Saturday and I have to go to school, I really think that my studying is getting better! That is because during maths, I could understand the whole chapter of trigonometry, and I understood Chemistry, and I understood Physics!!!!! *blows nails

Apparently today however, I realised that I don't love fencing anymore.... the world is ending!!! (wth no la, whoever thinks that are idiots.)

3 years ago, I joined fencing because I didn't like the other Uniformed Clubs and I didn't have to buy any uniform or go under the sun or go marching. It was heaven. I loved the fencing community and it's people. They were nice and funny and sporting.

2 years ago, I started becoming serious with fencing. I was going to join my first fencing tournament and trained two times a week at school before class starts and went to fencing centre every saturday night. I totally loved it!! But the fencing association kept postponing the tournament and at last, I couldn't join the tournament because it was held on an exam day. Sigh, I was so disappointed. But at least I got to be the ahli cemerlang (exellent member)

Last year, was PMR examination year. I really wanted to train, but the school won't let me join any competitions because of PMR. So, I just studied.... and studied... and studied... Until I completely forgot about fencing. But somehow, this year I got to be the ahli cemerlang again. After PMR, we were allowed to follow tournaments so we participated in UMS FENCING OPEN. I ranked only 6th. But I think thats okay, since the fencers were from the whole country and they were mostly universiy students. But I haven't gone fencing in a long time, and my interest faded.

Sigh, and now this year, I just keep wanting it to end, you know? I dread the days when I have to do the tiresome stretching and endless lunge and endless smelly gear. My BM teacher asked if any of the fencers have gone to a high standard yet, and I thought, I have been training for 3 years now. Why am I still learning the stupid basics over and over and over again? Why am I still going nowhere? During the SFA Fencing Competition, I was actually contemplating whether or not I should lose on purpose just so I could go home.

I keep thinking of changing to a different club but then, I could be the president of the club next year. And with that, comes a big bonus in my kokum marks. So maybe then, I could go into a good university.

Hmm, decisions decisions. Oh well, this is just probably the assistant coach thing and maybe I just need a break from it.

Hahaha, I just realised that its like a break up. No fencing, its not me, its you.

Wedding Essay

My teacher gave me 40/50 for this essay.

I closed my eyes as the beautiful notes of “Here Comes The Bride” flowed through the air like a soft breeze. A pleasent gust of wind rustled the rose bushes which emitted fragrances around the garden.

                I opened my eyes and around me, people were looking back to the bride and I could see why. She was dressed elegantly in white, her hair cascading down like a waterfall down her back, and a serene smile curled on her lips. She seemed to be oblivious to the hundred or so people in the garden, because her gaze was locked on the groom. Slowly, she inched across the isle in her white stilettos, and arrived at her place beside him just as the music came to an end.

                The music faded, and the clergyman stepped up to the microphone, Bible in hand. He smiled at the assembly. "Cherished family members and honored guests, I would like to thank each of you for coming out this morning," he said. The sound carried well from the small speakers to either side of the podium. The pastor placed the Bible down before him. "Let us begin by offering thanks to the Lord on this wonderful day." We all bowed our heads and he prayed.

                I did not pay much attention to what happened after that. However, I did snap my head in attention once the couple started to say their vows and exchange their rings. I think the best part of the wedding was their vows, because it was their oath to each other, their promise, that they would stand by each other’s side no matter what. After that, they exchanged their wedding rings made of diamonds and finally, the couple kissed and with their arms linked, they walked through the isle together.

                All around me, people with pearls rolling down their cheeks got up to follow the bride and groom. I followed them, and when I arrived, the couple was almost inside a black limosine, decorated with white ribbons and roses.

                I hastily pushed my way to the front of the  cheering crowd just as the bride suddenly threw her bouquet of pastel pink up towards the light blue sky and everybody gasped as it landed promptly into my open hands. My mouth hung open and I glanced around me as everyone clapped and cheered. Slowly, I began to realise what was happening and a huge smile crept across my face. The bride, gave me one last look, a look filled with pure happiness and gave me a wink before she disappeared into the shiny black limosine.

                I released a chuckle and wished my only sister, the only person who has ever truly cared for me after our parents died in an unfortunate car crash, the best of luck. Now, after this day, I have to care for myself. We have both gone through a tough time together, and tears filled my eyes when I realise that she at least has her chance of happiness.

Of Nose Pore Strip

Yesterday, Jessica, Frieda, Sarah and I were in the topic of beauty, as we uually are and we went into the topic of ugly humongous nose blackheads. So here I am, showing the way to effectively remove them!

These are my ugly humongous blackheads! Although, because it was dark, the camera couldn't capture most of those ugly things. This is about 2% of it only. And its blurry...

So I used this! It comes in a packet of 10 pieces and you use it once in two weeks. So it can last for a few months!! It's really cheap, like around RM 10 in Watsons or Guardian. And there's sale in both stores now! *drool...

It looks like this. You have to open the slits at the edge so it will fit your nose perfectly. Wet your nose first, and wet it thoroughly or it won't work.

And that is how you fit it on. So just go do some stuff like read a magazine, watch tv, find out the meaning of life, find a cure to cancer, or even better, read my blog! After 10-15 minutes, you take it off. Don't take it off too early, it won't be dry enough to grip the blackheads and don't take it out too late, or it will hurt a lot. Actually, it always hurts when you tae it off but keep telling yourself, BEAUTY IS PAIN BEAUTY IS PAIN BEAUTY IS PAIN!

Ugh gross.. see the little hairlike pores?!

Hahahah, did you vomit in your mouth a little? Everything white you see on the pore strip is the sebum collected inside my pores. EVERYTHING!

Actually, I don't think that this is the best way to remove it because believe it or not, it didn't take out all the sebum. I would go for a facial and the facialist will take out this metal thing and squeeze everything out. Then, the facialist will use a vacuum thingy to make sure every little blackhead is gone (the facialist did all these for the whole face, not just the nose). It's kinda expensive though, like RM 60 per session. But so worth it!!!

Senamrobik 1 Malaysia and Community Services

This morning, I woke up with a sore-throat and a runny nose. *sniffles

But I went to school anyway because I was too abashed to ask the doctor for a three day sick leave. I'm glad I didn't because today, we had senamrobik!!!

Yayyyyy! *mostly yay because senamrobik=no class and go home early. YES!

Anyway, I thought it was going to be boring and I secretly hoped it would rain. (mind you it was cloudy)

I arrived to school feeling disoriented by the amount of people I saw, yet I didn't recognize any of them. I travelled all the way to the canteen where I met Elvena and followed her halfway back to meet Bethany and Wahyun. There, I did not have to wait long before I saw Sarah and Vanissa! Of course, we went into the topic of Les Miserables (great musical!!) which is when we saw Fieda and Caroline. We enjoyed "On My Own" by Samantha Barks before we were forced to the school field to start the senamrobik. Boohoo.

ONE DOES NOT SIMPLY INTERRUPT SAMANTHA BARKS!

I'll let you go this time, teachers...

So, we made our way to the field. Thank goodness it wasn't muddy and that the grass was cut. There, we waited for about half an hour for the teachers to take our attendance (waste of time)...

One of the things I was worried about was that my valuables would get stolen. By valuable I meant money, phone and camera. So, I had my bag with me at all times and was shifty-eyed when people told me I had to put my bag down. There's a lot of thieves in my school you know! People have been crying over their lost phones and money on facebook! I know how they feel, I've been there. But that's a story for another post.

Anyway, I eventually let my bag down. And got into my place to start. In my place, I spread my arms wide and spun around so that I had lots of space for myself. Loll.

And thus, the senamrobik commences!! I did everything with energy okay! And when the lady who was leading us finally stopped I was all tired. Imagine my horror when they said that was only the warm-up.

Lol, the break was all too short. Because soon, we were back to dancing. It was okay at first, we bust some moves and everything. But what pisses me off the most was the people who were unwilling to do the moves. They didn't even look tired. It doesn't make them look cool, it just makes them look stupid, blur and so.... what's the word... UN-SPORTING. I try to cover my eyes at these people.

Towards the end, I was sweaty and tired. I am a pathetic weakling, I know I know. Along with my tiredness came my disorientedness, and along with that, confusion. So, I guess I looked pretty retarded, stopping and starting, then stopping and starting again. Oh well, I did my best lol.

Pictures!!!

When the main event ended, we stuck around a little bit. The teachers probably sensed our boredom so they entertained us a bit. And I totally loved this part because it people seemed so sporting and went up to the stage to dance!!

And that, boys and girls, is how you get the ladies.

Don't you feel like dancing along. Well uh.. not me cause I was tired.

For a tired person, I don't look bad huh? That's Sarah by the way.

But never to tired for poco-poco!!! What is a senamrobik without poco-poco after all. I joined in for a while but then went out to take my camera for a while and when I wanted to go back in, a lot of people joined in. So, I just took pictures la haha.

After the senamrobik, I made my way to Tanjung Lipat with some friends to do our moral project. At first I didn't want to go, because of my laziness but then my dad didn't pick up my calls and Caroline told me to go, because when else am I going to do it right? So off I went!

The only reason I went is because I needed to do my moral project. We had to clean up an area to complete this project which I think is a waste of time because my parents work hard to pay taxes which pays the DBKK!! And their child, their youngest daughter is picking up trash??!!!

Lol no, I am happy to do community service! =D *fake smile

Anyway, we walked there and my main concern was a flasher. One of my teachers told the whole class that there was a flasher lurking around the bushes, and that we shouldn't scream and run if we were to encounter one as that would only excite him more. Little sicko...

But I am only a little girl, of course my naive instincts are to scream and run.

Thank goodness we didn't run into any flashers and the only people we ran into were a couple dating by the drain. I don't know what part of that is romantic...

When we arrived there, we went to work! Michelle, our class monitor did a fantastic job. She made sure that everybody was there and made sure everybody got their pictures.

And of course, a group picture.

I'm a little disappointed though because the pictures of me picking up rubbish looks super ugly. =(

Oh well, I haven't tried photoshopping them yet!!! =D

Oh Harry!

No no Harry, you're perfect.
