On 12nd Dec, I went to Delta Mahsuri to take motorcycle's test. Only scared can be described. Especially the moment riding motorcycle on the narrow "bridge". Unfortunately, the feeling of scare pushed me down the bridge. And I FAILED in section 1. Went section 2 right after fell from bridge. The sun was too friendly, giving me the warmest weather. It was very hot and reluctant to wait under that situation. It was my turn, in my mind, I thought at least I pass this section (section 2). Checked the rear view mirror, light, signal, horn. Started to move. Finished then. When to the small shed where the examiner sat. Wrote my name and signed. Heart was not pouching in fast rate anymore. Walked back to counter, was watching my test paper. I got only 9/14 in section 2, for section 1, of course I already failed. I failed in both section, totally failed. Two friends went with me were pass. Oh my god, motorcycle test was hard for me, I thought studying for SPM even easier. So then, initially I need to retest on the following Friday, but my L license expired. I went today morning. Queued up to register. Waited for a long time. Upon my turn, oh gosh! My test paper wasn't there but my name printed in the list. Where was mine? The JPJ administrator as well as examiner asked me to wait. So I waited. I got no. 38 out of 40. I was almost the last. Waiting, waiting, waiting. Finally, the time came. First definitely was to cross the bridge. I told my self not to be too scared or else I have to pay another RM50 to retest. Yeah! I succeeded, I did not lose my balance. I did the test in section 2 like usual. After finish, went to the shed, again, wrote my name and signed. This time, I pass in both section. And finally, I got my P for motorcycle. I felt relief, at least I let off one of the anxieties. Haha! And one more thing, my family no need to chatter anymore. The next will be car test. Wish me all the best...

JC's birthday party
Chang's birthday wasn't on 23rd Dec but 20th Dec. Party was held on 23rd as many of the classmates went Buddha Camp until 22nd Dec. Loo, Hui Wen and me were the first arrived his house. My dad fetched us there. We were waiting others in his living room. Did nothing. Others were arriving one after another. His mum prepared a lot of food, a lot, really. Spaghetti, sausage, nugget, nasi lemak, Dunkin' Donuts, pudding, fruits and many others. All were enjoying the food and talking at the same time. Long time we did not meet, that's why we talked a lot, but in groups (xii said "biasalah"). Haha! Boys were playing games inside, either computer games or play station, I did not know. Oh ya, we took photos too, but mainly were girls, the boys were busy playing their games. I mixed up with Xii's group then we talked about our future, colleges, universities and all about academic. I told them my plan, but they have no idea. Time flow. I went back with Karen and Pooi Hean about 11.30 p.m. Slept after that.
Lastly, Happy Birthday, Chang...

Enthusiasm about arts and design
Undeniably, I'm very enthusiastic about arts and design. The passion for arts and design encourages me to invest the field. Josephine Yap, the counselor in TOA who counseled me. She said that, if you do not know to draw, please think twice before enter TOA. Besides, she told me, if you choose to study arts and design because others courses such as business, finance, medical, pharmacy and bla bla do not suit you, and you may go home instead of entering TOA. Haha, it is true! What am I then? I'm the opposite way, others courses do not suit me but arts and design suit me. So, TOA is definitely my place, I'm confident with TOA. Of course, there is a possibility that my enthusiasm for the arts and design may die away slowly after my study. But, I have the strong passion for it currently, others not exist in my mind. Mum said that arts and design is often the course for the poor results' students. I'm not agree with that. To study this, you must have the interest and talent, not everyone got this natural gift. Honest without ego, with my result, I can go into a more professinal field. One more question, there are not much students who are talented in arts and simultanuosly have flying colours result, ain't? Talking about jobs, doctor, pharmacy, dentist and bla bla bla, I'm not interested with them. Only arts and design are my soul in life. Your life will be dull without arts, without design, without beautiful colours. I love arts....that's all.

CoNfuSiOn ??????
Does campus life is really important? What is vital? Which? Where? What? A lot of question marks in my mind now. I'm hesitating whether enter TOA or LKW-U. The question is spinning in my brain now. I doubted a lot, I hope TOA appears to be winner at last. TOA gives me the confidence in creating me a best design student in future. I knew that, pressure exerted in TOA while enjoyable campus life in LKW-U. The later sounds better. But, TOA may show reality. What's in my mind? TOA is the place to learn and study and complete assignment, LKW-U is the place to study but more to side of enjoy. How enjoy it is? Sit on the chair in Wings cafe, enjoy food in food plaza, play games and bla bla bla, all the foreigner's life style. Undeniably, environment of LKW-U with a huge campus leads it to champion. But, I think accomplishments are important! TOA mentioned that, the city is the classroom. That's why, it is siuated in the middle of city, with a lot of cars, a lot of buildings and a lot of people. No doubt on it, TOA is the best of best with its good reputation and I could see from the students' art works. Yeah, I want to be like them, know how to produce the product, to create things by special effects. It's totally nice. TOA and LKW-U are different, totally different. LKW is international, can I live with foreigners? It is new experiences for me somehow. TOA is more compatible, where the style of life is still the style of local people which most of them are chinese. But I knew, English circumference is better. For this, LKW is really a place to get total improvement of English. No! I want to enter TOA. The appearance is not important. Don't judge the book from its cover!

The One Academy vs. LKW University
Woke up at 7.30 a.m. today then went KL with my dad and sister. The Colormancy Gallery was opened from 9.30 a.m. to 1.00 p.m.. It was the first destination we went. Admired the art work of student in the gallery while waiting for The One Academy's counselor, Jospehine Yap. She consulted me as well as my dad and sister. Then went around to see its facilities. Great and lastest facilities. I like it. Decided to enter there for the moment. January intake's offer letter can be given to me to refuse for attending National Service but enter the April in take which the class will start on May. It attracted me a lot. Yay....It's my place after SPM in my mind. Decision made after then, on the way going back to Tampin. That's the way. But problems exist, the accommodation, transpotation as well as food in the not-really-good environment of The One. The life in the city is not the problem, I came from city and I like it. Fee is kinda expensive but much different from the fee in Monash University (the richs' place). It worths for my future, I think. Haha. Though now, Lim Kok Wing University comes in. Question marks between The One Academy and Lim Kok Wing University appear. They have to compete now. Talking about the campus, I prefer LKW of course. Answer is blur now, which should I choose? Ok, I will go to visit LKW University. If the computer labs and all the facilities are standard (definitely larrr) and satisfy me (it is sure thing), I will go.
