Chopsticks?

1. Cup your hand, with your thumb apart from your fingers.
2. Place one chopstick in between your thumb and fingers, resting it against the base of your index finger and the tip of your ring finger.
3. Place the second chopstick parallel with the first, and hold it with your thumb and index and middle fingers, as you would a pencil.
4. Get the ends even by tapping them on the table. Now keeping the bottom chopstick stationary, move the top one by flexing your index and middle fingers up and down.
5. Practice until you can bring the tips of the sticks together easily.
6. Look across the table at the person whose residence you've invaded. Space the sticks about an inch or so apart.
7. In one quick, fluid motion, stab the heathen through both of his or her eyeballs. Screaming, "REPENT!" or "THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU!" at this time is also helpful.
8. Be sure to enjoy the tasty Chinese food they've thoughtfully prepared for you. Don't forget to leave literature!

I had a friend who knew how to hold chopsticks but could never eat with them. They had never figured out that the bottom chopstick is never moved. Confused when I mentioned this, they had trouble trying to hold one chopstick still while moving the top one. Finally, I said something that turned the whole situation into a much more enlightening moment:

The thumb is the fulcrum.

Within moments, they could use the chopsticks.

I'm a bit embarrassed that I may have been using them incorrectly at the time. Eating at a Chinese restaurant not too long ago, I bothered to read the wrapper that my chopsticks came in. I had most of the steps correctly, but as the label points out, now you can pick up anything. So I tried to pick up the table. It didn't work. I'm not sure where I went wrong with the chopsticks, but someday I'll get it.

I Love Maths

“Philosophy is a game with objectives and no rules. Mathematics is a game with rules and no objectives.”

“Mathematics is like love; a simple idea, but it can get complicated.”

"If people do not believe that mathematics is simple, it is only because they do not realize how complicated life is."

"Mathematics is written for mathematicians." – Copernicus

"Small minds discuss persons. Average minds discuss events. Great minds discuss ideas. Really great minds discuss mathematics."

PS? oohh!! PS stands for:

1. most obviously, Play Station! A dream I'm not all that interested in fulfilling...

But here in KMB, we have...
2. Photo System (group of pigments where chlorophyll is the reaction center, for photosynthesis. There is PSI and PSII in cyclic and non-cyclic light dependent reaction)
3. Personal Statement! (very important thing we need to write for our university interviews)

and others could mean:
4. Post Scriptum or PostScript as used in writing, P.s.
5. picosecond
6. Ps for Pastor

*Yawn*

Wow, it's like I've just woken up from a deeeeep sleep from blogging. Hmmph. What has happened over the past few months? Plenty. First semester of International Baccalaureate (IB) at Kolej Mara Banting has ended, what a relief! [I survived! Yayy] But 3 more to go... I'm ready and raring to go! [except that I have 3 Malay novels to read this holiday and I have only barely started one!]

I find that posting up my feelings or personal stuff or whatnot that I've been doing for 2 years is quite unproductive and anyway I'm an INFJ which means I'm a private-ish person so I don't want to share this kinda stuff yeah. Check out this really cool personality test called the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) by Carl Jung. Do the test HERE and then google your result and read up about it. It's quite an accurate description. It's the current me: I think I've changed quite a lot over this few months at KMB. I've become more confident, more caring, more sensitive. Especially through the d Encounter camp 09 which was awesome!!

I'm an INFJ: Introvert, iNtuition, Feeling, Judging. I'm the rarest kind: only 1% have it. I think the most important feature is being able to feel others and be compassionate. That's really me. I really want to be able to encourage others and make others feel special. Maybe because that's how I wish others would treat me. That's why I love giving presents, and so this Christmas I spent a lot of the money MARA gave me to buy presents... [what shall I eat next semester? gasp] but it's so worth the smile on people's faces!

So, MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

MPP! omg omg omg

Thank you all for your support. I am pleased to anounce that I have won a seat in the Majlis Perwakilan Pelajar of Kolej MARA Banting. I would like to thank my parents, my friends, my support group, my classmates, Pn. Badriyah (Pure Maths teacher) who gave me some wise counsel and of course, my Heavenly Father.

What My Teachers had to say

Comments from Biology Teacher:

"He (Samuel) has the potential to be a good candidate for the MPP post. He shows positive attitude in class and seems to be interested in the subject. He can work well in a group and he's not afraid to voice out his opinion. He would be a good person to represent the voice of the students." (by Cik Ashimah)

Comments from mentor:

"Samuel seorang pelajar yang aktif dan mudah disenangi ramai." (Pn. Roslindawati)
[OK so she didn't say much, but that's only because she's only met me two or three times so far, because she doesn't teach me]

Remember this:
I am here not merely to endure change, no even to profit from it, but to CAUSE it, BE it.

My motto:

"Life is either a daring adventure... or nothing."
The very fact that I RAN for MPP is in itself a daring adventure, because a year ago, I would never have dreamt of even trying to get the position, because I was never brave enough. But now is my time to shine where darkness prevails, to be a voice to speak out in the silence that roars. Now I'm being too poetic. Never mind.
So. Now the adventure begins...
