Roles at Inti

haihz..finally get the chance to update. Recently, I'm really super busy.

First, I would like to talk about role as a classmate at Inti. I'm a bit confused which group I belong to. Fine, just forget it! I feel afraid of my past group. We can be fun when chatting but regarding assignments, I don't know what should I do. Due to the busy work I have, I don't have the energy to care for them, whether they have finished their work.

One day before handing up an assignment, she asked for my copy!!! But, before that, I had already taught her and gave my first draft to her as reference. During class, I confirmed with her again whether she faced problem. But, she said okay until the last second, really the last second when class ended. I had packed my things and prepared to leave the computer class. She then suddenly appeared in front of me and asked for my copy again, which is the one which I would hand up. Smart for her to ask last second, not minute. I didn't know how to refuse. Such a hurry situation, so I just copied to her. Grr...A failure for TianXin,right? Still don't really know how to refuse. I learnt my lesson from that, "no means no! I can teach but not lend!" >=)

Next, it's about my job as a publicity of STACT. Wa~ I've really spent much time on designing! But, I still learn from that. I know how to use Adobe Illustrator d! Hooray, but not pro. -.-" Thanks to Choong Kooi, a senior of publicity too, who has good ability to design using software. I've really fully utilized his "wings"! ha..So, lucky for me to have his art work.. =P

Then, Yat Lei, not only an advisor of STACT but also for my life. He is also a profession in creating books, who has really helped me much.

Lastly, Chim Lin, a senior too. From him, you can be inspired. A unique thinking he has. I think he is a perfectionist. really need to spend mental energy to work with him. My art work is always being commented badly by him. But, if he says good, I think it means good. Ha..

Really couldn't believe that I can create T-shirt using software. Ha..Thx to SF1 too because of the contribution of t-shirt template. Hee..

hi! I'm a new born baby~

Hi, everyone! I'm a new born baby by STACT. My level is 0 now.

Ha..feeling weird?
After joining STACT club for a period, I really feel I'm a nobody who has no skill, no knowledge, etc..
Now, I'm learning how to deal with people again, manage time, be a more responsible one, master the art of conversation, etc..

I'm now an apprentice of the STACT advisor. My "Sifu" is nice but a bit 长气。 Shh~ =P

"Happy Growing!" to me. =)

First 19th RS training session

Though the training session was really long from 9.30am till 7.30pm (delayed from 5pm), I still feel that the time passed that fast because I still haven't mastered the dances. Luckily the dances are not of big action. We are actually dancing with hands using sign language. I like it!!! It's more meaningful! Haihz..my left hand is still that "cacat". Also, I learnt them very slowly. =(

Besides dancing session, we also had ice-breaking session which we played games together to get close with each other. I really somehow admire the motivational group leader who can act stupidly. Really stupidly!!! No exaggerating! He's really brave not to care for his image at all. Ha..
Claps to me for not being punished today for losing in games. Actually, I almost needed to use my butt to write letters like those losers. The first game was using another person's identity and act as him. I chose to be a guy named You Liang. When I was asked what's his degree of short shortsightedness by the group leader in front of everyone. I simply guessed and said 400 degree. But, surprisingly, the answer is 800 for one eye!! Wow! 400 already very high but unexpectedly he has that high degree. He helped me by giving me hint. I was caught by the chou group leader and almost became loser. But, when he asked the whole club whether they did see me cheating. Everyone said NO! ha..so, forcefully, I was free. hee.. Whew~

The seniors came back to guide and share experience with us today. They are quite old actually. Some are even 10 years older than us. They are strict but I think I will really learn much from them! Looking forward what will TianXin become when mixing with them. Of course, TianXin won't be like the motivational group leader who has no image. Hee..

Too much to describe and hope to share with my readers but really too long and if you don't experience, it would be like telling old time stories which would be very boring. Hee..so, my advice, if there's an opportunity for you to join such event, just go for it! It's indeed enjoyable though tough. But, you'll learn things for sure, like working as a team with discipline but still can joke together.

=)

Themes...

We, committees, were asked to contribute an idea each for theme. I suggested "有志者,事竟成". I think it will certainly encourage the kids in rural area to continue their education pathway as I always use it to encourage myself. But, I found that the response wasn't that good yesterday. There was only the vice president who kept on supporting me till the end but my theme still was out of the choice. Instead, many voted 梦之翼 as theme for our club members to burn up spirit among members. The idea of this theme is originated from a game. Honestly speaking, I don't think it's suitable for our theme. In fact, it seems to be more on dreams.

On the way back home, I consulted mom (my personal adviser as she has lots of experience in kid's activities). She suggested 智心。Oh ya! Why I didn't think of it?! I could ensure that it would be accepted. Just see what does it mean! 有智慧的会员抱着爱心开心地完成任务 ! 智慧+爱心, 做起事来也开心! =)Isn't this is the motto of our club??? I quickly sent sms to vice president. But, the next day, the chairperson didn't seem to have the thought of changing. I also don't know whether I should persuade them to use this theme because everything was set yesterday. If I try, I'm afraid that I'll hurt another committee's feeling though he got it from game. What should I do?

Now, we just left another theme to encourage the kids in rural area. I think of using 有志事成 instead of the long one. This is what mom suddenly sent sms this early morning(8am) to tell me though she didn't think that's a good theme for kids as it is quite 沉。It would create burden for kids instead of making them to get interested with studying. So, do you, readers, have any idea?

Having serious mental block now....

Formal meeting

Wa~ Honestly speaking, the meeting with STACT somehow gives me stress. Though the rules will absolutely be obeyed by me, I still feel stress when hearing there are so many rules to follow, like no coloring hair, no long nails, etc.. All of these I can ensure that I'm obeying.

Today, I attended first meeting, a formal one. When the vice president assigning jobs for me as publicity, I felt like talking to a serious adult though I've actually been told that weeks ago. I think I'm still kid (yea, I admit). But, TianXin will grow~ =P

Argh..really need to break my mind and think out of box this time...

2nd driving test...

I skipped my American Government class today during break so that I could rush back home for my driving lesson. So lucky for me today or perhaps, I'm too sensitive for it. But, it's better to think positively,right? ha..First time I didn't need to wait for bus. When I reached the bus station near INTI, the bus came. Then, when I reached the bus station for U71, the bus just reached. Wahaha...

Reached home, I rested for a while and got ready for my driving lesson. Today's driving lesson was extremely smooth. Parking, 3 point turn, and slope...the sound pollution was also being reduced by the uncle.

Ok, just left about 12hours and it's time for me to PASS my driving lesson! Good luck for me! >.<
will tell you the results tomorrow..

to be continued....

Day of Driving Test..

Yeah! I've finally passed! Today wasn't as lucky as last time when the weather was nice, no long queue, easily handling of handbrake,etc.. Today was the opposite;hot and sunny, long queue....But, after failing at the parking part last tues, I learnt much. Instead of just memorizing the skills, I mastered the skills. Hooray for me! =)

But, maybe of the stressful feeling before this which even caused me not to sleep well and had nightmare about cars, I didn't really return to my relaxing feeling which I thought I should have. Weird weird..I feel happy when i plan to go for ping pong this Fri. And, even Jiaying might go! yeah! looking forward to Ping pong~

My Unexpected Valentine's Day in 2009

Everything was unplanned today. What I planned, I didn't follow. What I didn't expect to happen, it happened. Let's see...how's my first outing of Valentine's day.

"Ouch!" This morning, I woke up around 9am something, thought that I should prepare myself to Sunway Pyramid for the Ribenna event. But, since it was just 9am and I still had much time (11am to gather there) to prepare, I started to think whether I
should go. I wanted to see the Ribenna event to get some ideas from it but I didn't want to watch romantic movie with them. And, considering one more thing, I just realized so far I've only seen 2 girls in the club, others are guys. I just know the president and the vice president who wasn't going. So, finally, I came out with a decision, throwing aeroplane....Sry.. =P

Staying at home and facing the computer for the whole day, I thought that's my day. But, then I was totally surprised by SOMEONE. Just guess! Ha.. She was JiaYing! She asked me to go "gai gai". Then, I agreed after telling mom since she rarely asks us to go out. I'm obedient. Mom says that we need to complete our work before playing. So, I quickly started to write my weekly essay. Wow! Unbelievable! I completed in half an hour. I usually spent half of the day writing it. When going out, I only realized it's Valentine's day! No matter mom didn't ask where I would go.

We started our unplanned+funny+adventurous+stupid+ "romantic" journey. Our driver (Jiaying) said to fetch us but didn't know the way. -.-" Weiyi, even worse, acted as a pro photographer and also joker. Ha.. She kept on taking photos. This is my first time to loiter. I couldn't imagine I did that. JiaYing and Weiyi simply followed cars. Unfortunately, maybe Jiaying's skill wasn't that good, all the cars we followed went to police station. Ha..

Finally, I suggested to go Asia Cafe to have my dinner, only mine. But, when reached Subang Jaya, we went to Salmon Steak. When the food was served, I wasn't allowed to eat. Pity TianXin who hadn't eaten anything for about 12hours after her meal at 11am. Her "delicious" chicken chop was grabbed by the photographer to take photos. Not only that, she was forced to pose while eating. =( At last, the steak was returned to her but it had become cold. -.-"
taking pose forcefully

my chicken chop!!!!

Crapping...and, time reached 12am. So, we went back. Haihz..In order to care for the 2 girls' image, I'm not going to mention anything happened during the journey back to my house.

After passing the traffic jam, we reached my home. My parents didn't notice that I wasn't at home. =( They had locked the door but were still at living room. Maybe I'm a good girl so they didn't expect that I would reach home that late. Telling honestly to my mom what had just happened, I could see her imagining through her smiling face when she saw me come back that late.

They had helped to relax myself. feeling dizzy now...good night!

My Valentine's Eve..2009

My Valentine's eve in 2009, a special and memorable one.

First time meeting STACT committees, adviser, and 3 seniors who have graduated, I learned a lot from them. Tell you one thing, STACT club isn't a club for kids. Indeed, it's quite formal because of its main sponsor, MCA. This absolutely suits me well as I'm mature. What does STACT stand for? I figure out one suitable name. That is "Super Talented And Clever Thing" (actually,"Team" sounds better but I prefer to use "Thing" as it sounds funnier) ! Ha.. Actually, it stands for Student Action which means a group of students visiting rural area for 1 week to encourage the children there not to give up in education. It's meaningful. But, the work can be a great burden for me. As the publicity, I need to do many things like designing T-shirt, searching for sponsors, decorating, doing souvenirs,etc..

Today, I was assigned to distribute the flyers with another committee-Seng Kiet, to ask them to attend the interview session for the Rural Service Project. Then, I was asked to examine the interviewees' talking tone, pose, facial expression and so on, and write down my own comment. That was really formal. I don't think I would answer well
if I were the interviewee. There are types of common questions like asking to handle a situation, asking why should STACT choose you,etc..Learnt much from that!

Then, as what I should expect, I couldn't concentrate in finishing my essay and assignment after the meeting and while waiting for the arrival of 5.30pm when Chen Kiat and Angie would fetch me.

Chen Kiat and Angie came to fetch me. I looked like a kid with Dad and Mom. ha.. In this case, I admit I'm kid.
We spent some time at MacDonald then to RNC Restaurant. As what I expected, many came late. Jiaying, Lisan,Kean Mun and Keng Onn reached the earliest at 6pm.

SF1 really is really obedient. I asked them to crap, they really crapped in my "SF1 Contact Book", especially Angie and ChenKiat. -.-"

Don't know when will be our next gathering but hope it comes soon. =)


the largest group of SF1

My last driving lesson..hopefully

"Hey, slow down your speed! You don't know how to control your speed a!", "Faster! Turn your sterling till the end!", "Aiya! You've forgotten what I taught you last time!"......

These are the sound pollution which keep on buzzing in my ears! Grr...Yea, yea, yea..I admit I'm not a potential driver. Honestly speaking, I don't even know how to fill petrol, start engine, etc.. But, please, TianXin needs some time!

Today was my last driving lesson. I drove to Bangi. And, as what I expected, sound pollution from him again!
When I reached there, my mind was empty. I couldn't complete all nicely. It was even worse than the first time I went there last three weeks before CNY and the PSC test!

Has my brain cell damaged?! I've poor memory in this semester. I couldn't really totally absorb what teacher has taught! Argh...Can I check my brain? Or, perhaps it's because of my own assumption which causes me to act like this? Not feeling stable nowadays.

I think I've too many to handle in this semester. 5 boring subjects in theory + club activities + struggling for "P" + maintain my grades to continue my scholarship

I can't stop in halfway! The only solution is to continue!

“重振勇气, 向死而生! ”

All the best!!! To be continued....



Day of test

FAILED!!!

-.-" failed the parking part!

will retake next tues!

"Man proposes, God disposes"

What an unpredictable day was it for today! Is it my punishment for not attending my first meeting as a committee?! I should value the opportunity of being a committee in the club!

Due to the late sleep yesterday (3am), I woke up at 12pm. After having lunch packed by mom, I was asked to follow my mom and help her to pay the telephone bill at Connaught then she'd fetch me back to home and would fetch me to help her around 5pm. So, pitied her for traveling here and there, I decided to follow her after lunch for the whole day. I brought books along, thinking that I could do my work at her office while waiting the time to reach 5pm. But, when reached the office, it was about 3pm and I settled the last small part of my flyer. Actually, searching for suitable photos had spent most of my time. Chen Kiat then sent me msg, asking me to go Pulau Tioman on 20-22 feb (fri-sun). Again, I spent my time on deciding. I really want to follow! I didn't even care that I'd be the odd if going with them. I thought and thought, checked and checked. And, finally, I decided to go! So happy! =) I was looking forward to that trip excitedly. I used up my courage to skip my tuition class and spend my time on trip rather on studying even though I really need time to cope up with my studies as I feel that I'm behind now.

It was 5pm! I followed mom to LCCT (airport @ Sepang) to fetch 2 China men. They are nice and enthusiastic. I looked like a kid, pretending like adult when they shook hands with me (I hadn't seen them before this meet so I was asked to hold a paper writing their name). ha..the man kept on calling me 小姑娘。We went to China Town for dinner. On the way back to home, I told mom that I'll be going to Pulau Tioman and skipping tuition class on Sun. She didn't say no or sound no. So happy... =)

But, at night, I chatted with the STACT person. And, I was told that our first training session will be on 21 feb(sat) when the trip is held! *Ish... As a committee, I skipped the first club meeting today and I don't think I should skip the another first training session. If it isn't the first session, I would surely continue my trip. I don't want to be an irresponsible committee because I hate people who are irresponsible like some of my current classmates. Between the wonderful Pulau Tioman and dancing & singing session(training) like kids, which should I join?

I called up Chen Kiat and when I heard his sound, I only realized it was 1.40am. Feeling even worse now. I'm troubling everyone!!! I think Chen Kiat is feeling "sien" to ask me to go trip now. =( also, the club to think that I'm so troublesome and irresponsible. =(

So, now, just let fate to decide! Chen Kiat will tell me whether they can cancel my part. haihz... To be continued...

Next day

I woke up in the morning (11.40am). Still considered as morning, right? ha.. =P I sent sms to Chen Kiat and (don't know bad or good), he told me that he couldn't cancel. So, I need to go. I'm happy that I could go but, on the other hand, I have many worries now.

First, being an irresponsible committee for the first time being selected as a committee by luck. I didn't value it!!! So far, I haven't met other members. And, when I'm imagining my seat is always empty when having meeting or training, esp during first time, I feel even worse. =(

Second, I need to find excuse to be absent in my tuition class. Mr. Hew always says that we, students, should spend time in studies, not trip!!!

Third, I need to spend quite an amount of money, at least half of my angpow. hee..seldom got the opportunity to travel with them. =P

Forth, I think I'll be the odd one during the trip as I don't think Jiaying, Lisan, or Weiling can go. And, I seldom join the gang, except ChenKiat. I'm the extra one. (a small matter) So, I'm afraid that I won't be able to enjoy. (but, everytime I think that, it won't happen among sf1 ones)

Fifth, I will spend my time in playing rather than studying which it should come first ,esp this sem as teh courses are quite tough for me this sem. (I think I'll fail my PSC test 1 as I didn't even can assure that I can score in objective questions)

Hiahz..Now, I think I'll be relaxed if Chen Kiat tells me that he can help to cancel.

Anyway, “船到桥头自然直 ” !

Oh, can be continued again like this...

Then, at night, surprisingly, I received sms from ChenKiat, telling me that due to weather disturbance, the trip will be changed to Pulau Pangkor. I've been to there for times and SF1 class trip was there last time. So, I might not think to go even I've no club activity. But, now, I have club activity which crashes with the trip. So, (ha..) I'm not joining them. *Sry ya, ChenKiat!

I swear it wasn't me who asked the God (weather) to act like this!

Whew~ Now, no worries for me. I'm just feeling panic with the first training session. Club members are needed to learn 20 songs and 4 types of dance! It shouldn't be a problem for anyone but not for Lee Tian Xin. Ha..

STACT club

This is my first club that I join in my life, excluded St.John during primary and some clubs like Badminton Club at SMK Tmn Connaught, Science & Mathematics Society at CHS and Circle-K at Inti which were not active at all when I joined it.

Now, I'm joining STACT Club as a committee (publicity). Thanks for the president who randomly chose me. Very funny,right? I don't know him, neither any club members of STACT. And, after registering as member for days, he asked me to be committee. Then, after CNY, I was asked to decorate the board to make announcement there.

So, today, after class at 2pm, my friend and I started our work of cutting and pasting. I didn't contribute any idea. Most are from my partner because I have no experience in this while my partner has been very active in clubs. For decorating, "wet wet water" only! ha..

While decorating, I didn't realize there were other committees there who were standing beside us and chatting until when the president came. -.-"

They like crapping and joking. I think I will be active this time! *Claps for me..at last..

初八-拜天公 + American Government test!

I think this was the most relaxing day I have so far in this semester. I didn't even really enjoy much during CNY.

I went to school that day as usual then followed my cousin back to his house to study politics because we needed to go to grandma's house to 拜天公!I like this day because I think this is the only day when kids can sleep as late as they want. And, the whole family will gather till the midnight, laughing and joking and of course, eating. =)

When we reached there, it was around 10pm. Two more hours to reach the time for praying. So, as usual, I have the responsibility to make others to laugh. But, actually, till now, I also don't know they are socializing me or they really laugh at my jokes or perhaps my stupid act? Ha... "Laughter is the best medicine" I'm the doctor! >=)


by Uncle Eah


by TianXin (Don't laugh! I know u're doing so!)
It has been quite a long time for me to laugh madly like this since the semester started. Maybe it was because of the energy I used up when laughing, I could sleep easily that night. So happy! =) The next day's morning class was canceled so I could wake up late. After recharging myself, I finally could concentrate on my politics!

But, I think I've failed my test 1(20%) for the subject today! As I always say, I'm not good in theory no matter how many times I've studied. Today was even worse. What a good day for teacher to make it today! Due to my poor schedule this semester, I need to attend 6hrs class without break from 8am-2pm. And, the test was set on today,2-4pm! What the...bad luck I had this semester! I've repeated for many times, at least 3 times, the chapters! But, I couldn't remember most of all when it started. I just felt dizzy..*Bish!

Wa~ very busy for this semester..
