Can you describe who are you and what do you possess in Life?
Please write it as detailed and as long as possible as this helps to us to reflect ourselves and think about what we really are in life...

Life is like a movie/drama... what are the charactors whom you are playing? How do you play it and do you play it well?
as a film director, how would you like to shape your future and what would you do to achieve that?

I hope everyone will think properly about themselves and share your life with us.... thanx

I would think that each of us is unique and I am a unique individual too, just like everyone of us. Although more than 99.9% of our gene is similar, we have different life experiences and many of us who have the luxury to go online, join this network, are the lucky ones. I was just reminded that 2 billion people in the world, are living below $2 a day right now.

On what role I am playing, I believe that I don't play any specific role. More like, I am casting my own life journey, own video. When I was young, I was more care free... Didn't do much, except spendign the time in my grandparents' house... I was living at Parit Buntar then, Perak border. I moved to Penang state in the year 1990... Got to go to Jit Sin High School in 1994 and I guess that would be a big change for me. Going to a school in suburb area, for a person from rural area. That is a huge change. A new environment. Those early days, I thread carefully, learn daily, from a very shy person, to a very talkative person right now. Life has been changing a lot. I paid tribute to Teens-Belia, the uniformed bodies that I have been since Remove in 1994. Those tough moments that I have gone through with fellow members have been instrumental in my life. I learned to be tough, to obey orders, to carry out jobs responsibly, to learn not to ask for any reward when do anything. It was great learning moment. I managed to utilize it in my Maths Society, where I was President of it. I managed to carry out, experiment with what I have learned through Teens-Belia there.

After leaving high school, I moved towards another chapter of my life. In Raffles Junior College, Singapore. That's another dimension, especially learning with the top scholars from all over asia. It was tough, yet I trod it step by step. I try not to have any self-expectation, while I will be satisfied if I tried my best. My command of English was horrible. Coming from chinese school, I was satisfied with my english level in high school, because not much awareness of it during those days. Then, coming to an english environment in RJC, I had difficulty. I tried to speak. It was tough. Others didn't understand me and vice versa. I had background debates in high school, so I dedided to talk the unimaginable. Joining debates society there, sparring with them. The first month, i was mostly just joining the pre-debate discussions and debriefings. 15-20 hours a week, I spent on debate, while others were preparing to represent the college and also Singapore in debates, I used it as an opportunity for me to learn English. A number of my friends, Peggy, Chen Seong, Valerie, Natalie etc were very helpful. Some of them went on to represent the college and country and Peggy for instance was judged the 5th best debater in the world. They were humble enough to help and guide me throughout those years. It was great learning experience for me. My form teacher, Mr Ho Weng Kin, my assistant boarding master, Mr. Leong Wei Shin etc helped me a lot too...

Then, came those moments when I was fighting for Malaysia Night in Singapore. Together with Malaysians from all races, we were discussing, brainstorming and taking many concrete steps towards negotiating with Ministry of Education Singapore on Malaysia Night there. It was tough battle... I would spare the details, but those few weeks, really brought out the best of my patriotism... I still kept some of those emails, when we always ended our emails with MALAYSIA BOLEH!!! That was our spirit! The day, we got the approval to organize Malaysia Night, we were so happy beyond description, that we felt that we have achieved independence. It was just marvelous, working together very closely with these fellow Malaysians. Although I didn't get to see the Malaysian Night in action, as I got JPA two weeks before it, I had the satisfaction that it was successfully organized. Many Malaysians were singing Negaraku, enthusiastically, something that not many of us have done. We were very proud to call ourselves Malaysians, raising our Jalur Gemilang on the tickle of midnight of 31st August. Many patriotic songs were sung and many shed tears, remembering those golden and nice moments back in Malaysia. It was this spirit that brought Malaysians together...

I would continue later on, but this is my sharing for the day... Hope everyone enjoys and more people can share and lets experience together!

Wonderful story you have there, Chen chow. I, however, have a different story of life. My journey of life involves those who are around me. My family, and my friends. They will never be away from my mind. In fact, i can still remember most of my primary schoolmates whom i have never keep in touch since Std 6. They still come to my mind sometimes. Keep thinking - will they appear to be strangers to me when we bumped into each other? Will they remember my name? No doubt, these people are the parts and parcels in my life. They still live in me. I have gone to lots of camps, joined lots of forums, participated in activities enough to watch friends that i have made walked in and out of my life. Making new friends is a bliss, but waving goodbyes to them is heart wrenching.

In my secondary school, my friends and i seldom meet up to go for movies or yam cha. The only time we meet was in tuitions and schools. Hehe... We thought that we would be around each other for another 2 more years in Form 6. Guess we were wrong then. The first week after SPM, i got busied rehearsing for my church member's wedding. The following, i went for a one week Bible Camp in Penang. So no time to meet up with my friends. And as soon as i got back from the camp, I've received the news that i was selected for the ASEAN scholarship, and i got to pack my bag immediately and leave for Singapore. Luckily we managed to have a small gathering in my house before my friend and i left.

In singapore, i had to start all over again in making my network of friends. Being active in CCAs and becoming a class rep helped me a lot in making acquaintances and friends. And then again, in aug, i received the news that i was offered the JPA second intake's scholarship and was to report to UiTM 3 days later. There was no time to waste. Got my return ticket for the next day, packed my bag till late midnight, informed a few of my hostelmates (those whom i met while packing and throwing stuffs away), sent hurried goodbyes SMS to class and CCA mates and youth members in my church which i had started to grow fond of, and headed back for penang. Everything was done in rash. No time to bid everyone farewell. No time to do the proper scholarship termination procedure with MOE. No time for last minute hangouts with my friends. Everything tasted bitter... Heck, i was supposed to be happy to get the scholarship, but yet i was behaving as if there was a bereavement. That night's journey back home was a real lugibrious one for me. My handphone was flooded with warm wishes and farewell messages. I never realized my eight months of stay in Singapore had blessed me with so many friends in my life. I silently cried to myself that night home (hey, guys cry also lar).

Now I'm in UiTM, and there's only 2 to 3 more months before the cries and hugs of leaving each other to our own universities. Well, let's not think that far. Life here in UiTM is momentary. Before today, i was dreading to leave this place. Now, i began to enjoy the companionships i have here. Hehe.... I'll be meeting with 2 of my ASEAN scholar friends tomorrow. Hehe... Life's great, isn't it?

Hmm... The song which has the biggest impact in my life is none other than Graduation by Vitamin C. Each time i hear that song, memories of my friends from my primary school, secondary schools and JCs will come flashing into my mind. That's why i cherish the song to this day.


Vitamin C - Graduation

Lyrics Transcribed by Leonie's Team Member - Ghettofabulous98


And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of that night in June
I didn't know much of love
But it came too soon
And there was me and you
And then we got real cool
Stay at home talking on the telephone with me
We'd get so excited, we'd get so scared
Laughing at our selves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels

As we go on
We remember
All the times we
Had together
And as our lives change
Come whatever
We will still be
Friends Forever

So if we get the big jobs
And we make the big money
When we look back now
Will our jokes still be funny?
Will we still remember everything we learned in school?
Still be trying to break every single rule
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Can we ever find a job that won't interfere with a tan?
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
And this is how it feels

Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly

hi.... i'm going to put a long story here.... but i'm on a rush rite now...

just want to dedicate this song to everybody....

Five For Fighting ? 100 years

I'm 15 for a moment
Caught in between 10 and 20
And I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are
I'm 22 for a moment
She feels better than ever
And we're on fire
Making our way back from Mars
15 there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose
15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live
I'm 33 for a moment
Still the man, but you see I'm a they
A kid on the way
A family on my mind
I'm 45 for a moment
The sea is high
And I'm heading into a crisis
Chasing the years of my life
15 there's still time for you
Time to buy, Time to lose yourself
Within a morning star
15 I'm all right with you
15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live
Half time goes by
Suddenly you?re wise
Another blink of an eye
67 is gone
The sun is getting high
We're moving on...
I'm 99 for a moment
Dying for just another moment
And I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are
15 there's still time for you
22 I feel her too
33 you?re on your way
Every day's a new day...
15 there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to choose
Hey 15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live

Hi.. I would like to talk about myself... the me that you will expect to see.

Hi... my real name is wong han ching (malays like to make fun of me so I got myself the nickname Rangga)

22 years young (born in ?1982)
and I am a typical Aries.. full of energy.. hehe

Actually I am not very talkative as I don?t talk very much in Real Life instead I always listen and listen and observe and observe although it?s a boring process.. I learn a lot from listening and observing... for eg. when I see a man holding his daughter?s hand walking togather I observe how they talk.. how they interact and most importantly I observe what is behind what I am seeing... thier love... etc etc.

I observe and always find the best time to open my mouth so I always talk at the right moment.... hehe

when I am around with those people not in the same wavelength as me I just keep quiet and observe but I can be talkative when I am with close friends....

I find myself having same wavelength with the Germans and europeans in Germany... and not so close with some malaysians... funny isn?t it...?

and one more thing I can get along very well with older people (my first love is 3 years older than me and last time in INTIU college I almost berjaya pikat one girl who?s older than me... hehe)

and I can?t get along mostly with people around my age... I think very young people are alright for me.

I can talk alot when I am in a forum or when I have to give ucapan.... I don?t know how I can get all those idea to talk in forum or ucapan ... it just flows out of my mind and I talk non stop.. hehe

that?s me... I think I am between introvert and extrovert...
I can be either one of them depends on the situation...

Hmm... this looks like an interesting thread. err I would like to keep myself anonymous for the time being, anyways this year i'm 18. I must admit that I had a sheltered childhood and my family was and is still financially secure. Well, i'm unique in my own ways.... I always tend to think that i'm very different from most typical people, and well, maybe I am....Although I am a guy, I am constantly succumbing to my emotions, and I am not afraid to admit it. Years ago I tried to fight back my feelings, trying to be someone that i am not, but now I realize that i have just to be myself....I am also not abashed to confess that i cried a few times watching spiderman-2 yesterday.....haha it was really good, esp the peter and aunt scene

Anyways I am also an assertive and observant person. I tend to see what people do not expect to see, not all the time though. People may think i'm weird, but i'm just being myself. As I closely relate myself to the reality TV show The Amazing Race, I am constantly pushing myself to the last breathe. It can be a gift to me, but also a curse. I seldom know how to slow down, and when I perform underneath my expectations, I feel bad and sometimes, I am hurt emotionally, but as I experience emotional growth and stabillity, I am, and still learning how to cope with myself.

Some people are extroverts, some are introverts..... I often perceive myself as an extroverted introvert. Although I prefer to be alone than with the company of others, I am assertive in all kinds of ways, and I am not afraid of speaking up to the public, even though I shiver sometimes. As all personalities have good qualities and flaws,, I believe that I was, am and will continue to undergo the phase of learning and experiencing life so that I can better myself... It is similiar to our levels in RECOM. The more we post the more XP we gain hahaha....

Anyways this is all about me. Hope i didn't bore you. what do you think of me??

launa
08-07-2004, 02:59 PM
who am i?

launa is my nickname after i become addicted to ragnarok. then i give myself a new name that is launarok that i find it so annoying. then i shorten it become launa! but it seems like a feminin name.

who am i. well, from launa the word, you can guess that my surname is lau and my last two name is king ung. my secondary chinese teacher says that it is a good name. i don't know how she knows about it. maybe she have studied some kind of namelogy(study of name)?

i have a happy but boring childhood and maybe some boring secondary school life. i make not many friends but i have many acquantant(it spells correct)? i am easily befriend with.

my social circle is growing a little by little each year. i usually stay in my circle, which is all my close friends.

i am a cancer and born at june 1985. i care very much for my family and friends. i try to help other in anyway i can. sometime i just hurt myself(not physically hurt.....) to help my friend. that why my mother is controling my childhood when i was young. i can get hurt easily, so do care for my feeling! hehe.........

i don't talk much and not talkative at all. but i am a well listener which can hear a friend story or suffering with patience. i sometime wander why i am so patient that i don't even feel bored when i just hear others stories. if you leave me alone, i will not even feel bored. alone is not a problem for me. i do my work mostly alone. understand what i say? maybe a bit confusing, but nevermind. just read. my expression is not good.

um...........well that is all for now. i need to eat now(haha, hungry now) do add me in your msn messenger or yahoo messenger. add me(sent a message to me in recom 1st) in your friendster also. i would like to meet new friend.

thank for listening! ^-^

Me, myself and I... actually nothing much about me to be said lo... Juz an average person with an average life...

Name: Kevin Lim Keng Yuen
Age: 19
Schools: Methodist Kindergarten, SGI since Standard1 till Upper6
Positive: Easy-going, jovial, joker, hyperactive, happy-go-lucky, not easy to get angry, easy to forgive but not forget, take most of the things easily, like to make more friends, like to play and many more.... but mostly is the enjoy type wan la but not Lepak. I talk a lot and listen a lot. Should be a good listener and always have an ear free if anyone wanna tell me bout their feelings or anything at all.... Try to help if can, if cannot i tell them to eat themselves..hahaha, jk jk, if can't help, ma give a lil of my opinion and advice... can say always happy but there are times when i felt really down, duno y....but will be ok after a few days or after talking to a person.
Negative:Talkative, sometimes can crap non-stop. Can't get serious for more than an hour. Sleep late. Plays too much. Sometimes doing somethings without thinking of consequences. Sometimes got over the limit with frens as in, said something that is not suppose to say and disturbing frens too much :oops: not sure still got or not, but I hope no more liao :P
That's all.. Nothing much to be said bout my life coz it's juz average like any other ppl's life :D

I usually don't trust myself in evaluating myself. It never seems to work. I always believed that ppl will always look good when they see themselves in the mirror. But here's the run down of myself.

You guys know my name...NEVER call me 'Mike'...I hated the short-form version of Michael.

I have been through a lot when I was a kid. You can read the 'Up and Downs of Life' thread for that. It made me a tougher guy.
It also cultivated my love for history and philosophy, mainly because I am fascinated by the actions, psyche and behaviour of mankind. I am very interested in learning why things came to be, why do we think in this particular way, why do we do certain things, etc etc...
Mankind has always been an interesting and mind-boggling study. I would have studied to become a lecturer if I did not choose to become a doctor. But being a doctor has its advantage. I get to know humans at a far more intimate level.

I have always a passion to serve...partly due to my Christian roots. I was not born into a Christian family but I grew into it as years gone by. BTW, nice work lynnx01. I've always belived that we exist to serve. We have a purpose in life, and this is the main one. Man has never existed for benefit of him/her-self. And following the example of Christ, it is always good to serve others than to be served all the time. You can feel the joy and the love more than anything else, especially in this money and power mad world.

I always thought myself of being terribly aggressive and stubborn intellectually. I am not a violent person. I've learn how bad it is if one is. But, I have a good/bad tendency to be fanatical when I set my mind to something.
Not to mention, my friends always tell me this. I am very very straight-forward with others. I am honest but I keep secrets ppl share to me, of course. I am one of those 'right in your face' type. I always believed in the saying 'honesty is the best policy'. Try combining that we some fanaticism and you get me.

Enough of philosophy...I am also a sports fanatic. I love watching sports. I dun have the physique for all sports but I still enjoy watching them.
I am also an avid reader. Guess I had to if I loved my history and philosophy. :D
I also love 1 other thing. Alcohol. I love its quality not its quantity.
I am an amateur connoisieur of fine wines and cognacs. I always bought a good bottle of wine at the end of each academic year to celebrate and I haven't disappointed anyone so far. I am interested in good beers (I want to go to the Oktoberfest!!!) and all sorts of aperitifs.

Haha..that's a little low-down of me. Want some more? PM me and we can have a chat in private.

hmm.. talking about beer fest I have something to share with you....
but try to keep focus on the objective on this thread.. hehehe


here?s some of the picture I have taken in Germany. They are the beer garten during the Fr?hlingfest (Spring fest)
I think octoberfest should be something like these pictures but it?s held in Bayern state.

during Fr?hlingfest the germans set up many many many beergarten, maybe everywhere?
mostly u find these big tent in temporary amusement park.
Besides beer they serve very BIG + deliscious chicken.

Beers are not serve in small mug. one litre is the standard size.

there are many narrow and long wooden tables in the beer garten.

People may sing along, or dance on the table and go high togather...
there?s a stage where singers will sing some folk songs....

if you like beer, Germany is the place for u. I heard that Beer in Germany is very good.

(by the way, I hate beer. I have ordered a mug of alchohol free beer but I can?t even finish a small amount of it. My cousin drinked the whole thing for me and got drunk, although it says it?s alchohol free. actually even malta makes me mabuk)
ok, here?s the pictures..

Gah! Stopped drinking the moment I laid my eyes on my dad's beer gut and not to mention my friends'. Vanity over getting high I suppose =P.

now, my inner narcissism =). Have a sudden urge to speak in metaphors:

Who am I
Some weirdly-shaped porcelain, yet it still compliments its surroundings. There are traces of glue on it's surface... A closer inspection will tell that this object had been broken before, more than once and had been put back together with the greatest care. There are some missing chips. It is not perfect but it's okay.

------ [ herstory - boring stuff ] ------

I was bold and loved being in the center of attention when Iwas young. Always in school performance... I loved the stage. After I was 11, I mellowed due to events that gave a huge slap to my self-worth and confidence. It's a long story, so in short, I was betrayed by those I loved: my teachers and headmistress. All the taunts, the threats, alienation and the public disgracing will never leave.

By the time I was in high school, I retreated into a shell, basically I lived in my own world. It's the only place I could escape to. Though was awkward, I made many friends as I was approachable and friendly. My saving grace I suppose =). However, comes with the desire to have people like me, I felt like a doormat most of the time. Depressed a lot. Felt suicidal for three years, but at the end of the day, I never did, for the realisation that there are a lot of things to love in Life.

Became wayyy better on the 16th year on Earth. I developed so much in that year alone. Love myself more and had the courage to say 'NO'. Mind you, I still am awkward, but I have developed such thick skin I usually don't bother =). Personality depends on mood. I can either be hyperactive and chatty or quiet and a loner. In both personalities, I still am weird; I have come to terms with it. I get a lot of hurtful comments/attitudes abt it. Like my friend says, I shouldnt be bothered with ppl like that, that I dance to a different beat of the drum, so it's not too boring. I love her for it.

Others : Laugh a lot (can be loud =o). Values wisdom abv intelligence. Loves books to death. Love a lot of things that I'm not good at (Plays, Volleyball, etc).Famous with crappy jokes. Still in love with life.

That's my journey for now. Thx for reading

burning butterflies, sorry to hear bout ur experiences in life. U sure had gone through a tough time in life and i really respect u for that :D feeling like a flloormat(depressed) i know how it feels. I had a some frens who tell me their problems and there are a few that had their bad times. listening to their problems makes me feel sad also. Things don't go your way everytime, try to take some things easy. If really depressed, u should find one person who u can trust and talk to that person. u'll feel better. really. I feel depressed sometimes but i'll be ok after a few days or after talking with one person. I'm not sure why i'm depressed but the feeling don't last long. when i'm depressed, I am very quiet and moody when i'm alone. i don't really show it out to others. So burning butterflies, ur bad days had gone past, and i hope that u'll enjoy ur life more in the future.

hey thanks loads for your replies...appreciate it loads, thx again =)

iQing : thx for the compliment =P. hmmm, as for the nick,it just kinda jumped into my brain one day, yelling "pickme!pick me!". lol. it has a lot of interpretation i suppose... i see it as dancing in the air, and i'm illuminated by the fire but if i get too close to the source, i'll get burnt. my friend sees it as something fragile hovering abv danger. depends on one's views =)

the_observer : one thing lovable abt the net, you get friends/companions out of places that seems to be filledwith strangers. =P i havent tried bratwurst... doesit involve dipping the bread and sausage into the beer? lol. yup, too much of oreos and milk for me

Kevinlim : haha, thx... i guess in a way all these happenings dont make my life boring! if everthing goes right for us, there won't be ppl in religion =). don't keep that feelings inside, the sad feeling. one day it'll burst out

Who am I....
Well, I'm a simple, ordinary girl. However I believe that everyone is special in his/her own ways. Everyone has his/her own charms. If only one can appreciate and see the specialities in that someone, then only he/she will cherish that person.
I'm going to be 21 this year, duhz, I'm a December baby, so always have to wait till the year end, then can only celebrate my birthday. But, this also makes many early-borned friends envy me, as I grow older latter than them =P
My name is as my nick indicates, PeiWen(in mandarin). Most of the time, my friends will address me as Kim (short for Kimberly); but for close friends, they known me by my Chinese name. I'm currently studying in Multimedia University, going to graduate next year, somewhere in May. I'm brought up in a caring family, and I must admit that I'm well brought-up as I really proud of my parents and they aren't just raise me up, but also teach me well. They're the greatest ever people. I have one sister and one younger brother. My sister just entered the same University as I do, and my brother is now studying in S'pore. He's a smart kid, and an ASEAN scholar. I dote on him a lot.
I was borned in Muar, know what, when my Mum was "pushing hard" to get me out from her womb, my Dad was at the cinema. As my Mum was having a hard time getting me out, in the end she has to go through operation in order to get me out. (Ooppss..sorry Mum, and thanks a lot to my greatest Mum) FYI, my Dad is quite an impatient person, hence, he thought my Mum wouldn't give birth to me that soon, that's why he went to the cinema. Haha, anyway, he never did that after I was borned though. Then I spent most of my life in JB. I entered the primary school, secondary school there. Since young, I was known for being obedient and good student. Since my parents are teacher, I guess that's why it has instilled in me that I have to be the model student at all times. No breaking rules and regulations! But, ever I entered university, I've learnt a lot and sometimes breaking rules and regulations, getting some lessons, that will allow one to grow up and be matured. Being too obedient or protected by parents, one will hardly learn things and grow up. Just my two cents.
That's pretty much about a simply ReComer here. Cheers~~~!

Interesting topic here :)

"Who am i?" a question everyone should be asking him/herself.
to ponder on this question, i have to look deeply into my heart for the answer, for i don't really understand myself either...but here goes:

Who am i?
I am a chinese boy who comes from Kuching and is currently studying in International Education Centre, a faculty of MARA university of Technology (UiTM).

Who am i?
i am currently 18 years old, going to be 19 this October (2004), born on the first day of the zodiac sign of Scorpio and i'm proud of my birthday since i also share the same birthday as the United Nations and Wayne Rooney.

Who am i?
i can describe myself as someone who always wants the others around him to be well and happy, never can i stand my friends being hurt. When someone needs my help, i'll do so whole heartly, even if i cannot help, i'll be there for them, to encourage them....When someone needs me to listen to their woes, i'll be right there, even though i may be physically thousands of miles from them (hey, we do have the internet and handphone;p)

Who am i?
As stated above,i'm born in a beautiful city known as Kuching. for most of my childhood, however, i stayed in Brunei (my father used to work there), and studyed from kindergarten to primary 5 in Chung Hwa Middle School, the only chinese school in Brunei.
When i'm 11 years old, my father died because of an industrial accident, so my family and i moved back to Kuching.
There, i studied for one year in SRK Satria Jaya, whioh is located the houseing area of BDC. For my UPSR, i got 4 As and 1Bs, i didn't take chinese because i learnt a different variation of chinese characters in Brunei
For my secondary education, i was put into a school by the name of SMK Datuk Patinggi Haji Abdul Gapor, Stampin...there, i have my most memorable years of my life. I've met many,many really true friends (thank you, Boon Phiaw, Vincent Chong Yung Fatt, Yang Yaw and many others for giving me such fabulous time then). I was one of the top student then...and with my Friends, we rock the school, as far as i can see, we can call ourselves the Golden Generation of our school....no bragging here, we had achieved the impossible in our school by winning competitions, and overhauled most of the school's records in every area (computers, debates, academic results,sports etc etc), by the end of my time here, i managed to get 9A1s in my SPM and that was one of my most memorable moment in my life.
Now i'm here in INTEC, and found myself a second home away from home here, because i've also met many true friends here (Kean Aun, Ka Keat, Jo Ling, Jeremy, John Kee, etc etc). They are there when i need them the most, no matter how busy they are.....I still have 1.5 yrs before i move on to the next phase of my life.....Germany

Who am i?
Now i'll reveal my name.....i'm Voon See Hua, a normal boy with an optomistic view of his world, and nothing is impossible to him.

All my thanks to my mom for nurturing me all there years, without you, i may not be here today....she endured all kinds of hardship to ensure that me and my 2 bros grow up in the most loving enviroment after my father's death....mom, you are the best:)

and to my friends, i wish you all the best in your lifes and keep in contact

thats all from me...sorry have to make you all read my lengthy memo......all the best to the all of you

Who am I? I really do not know myself anybetter than others around me. I am an introvert; a personality that I have been instilling in myself since my early childhood. My childhood is a dark tunnel to me. I never understand why I had been going through a selfish life all the time. Neither do I gave extra heeds or concern on things around me; family and friends for the past 10 years.

I was always in the center of being poked fun at by my so-called friends. Worse, I felt a deep stab to my heart when my sibling too throw harsh word to me sometimes. I went through the worst period of being depressed and suicidal for years.

Today, many may see that I am living a good life. I can feel the emotion scar still deeply embedded in me that sometimes I feel life is meaningless.

Mmm, kinda like leave us in suspense about what you've gone through, Aquariustar. But anyway, everyone has their stories, and of course everyone experiences ups and downs. History shall always serve as a lesson for us to move forward, to a better person. Well, you may go through all the pain and miseries now, but the sky will show good day sooner or later, perhaps with rainbow even. Always look at the bright side of things and be happy, that's the way to keep the life move on?! I think so, else we'll always in gloomy state and taken back by failures. Just my two cents. :wink:

We cant change the past, we cant predict the future, we can only control the present..

My friend once came across this quote and told this to me. No matter how our past is like.. we cant change it...so... it's better that we just concentrate and appreciate our present. Just be kind whenever possible... and it's always possible. :wink: I'm sure, there'll be better days for each of us. I still strongly believe that "One good deed deserves another" or "Buat baik dibalas baik, buat jahat dibalas jahat". :wink:

Haha... u know what? I think my childhood memory was bitter and at the same time, tasteless... But now, then, hey, that's the past, dude! Wake up... dun dwell in ur miserable past.... many may forgive and forget. If they dun, then we know they need a serious attitude adjustment... u got to learn to love urself... being who u are.... but at the same time, try to adapt urself with others.... it's hard to do that, but if u are willing to try, and not just pray that one day everyone's dying to be ur friend, i guess u will have lots of friends to laugh and cry with. :wink:

yeah... agree agree with EG!! :)
Now is my turn to try to think about WHO AM I??!!
Frankly, I can't really could recall back my past childhood life.
I just remember that the ME now not the past of ME.
I do changed a lot and keep on changing too, especially my attitude.
I was brought up with the attitude that care so much about what others comment about me, easily to get mad and angry with a person when I get to know that he/she talked bad abuot me behind, and I tell the person if I feel not uncomfortable with him/her. and bla bla bla that really made me cant really get along with some friends easily.
But now... changed... and sometimes feel that I was too naive last time. haha... Now, I became not really care about what other comment about me and think that that's thier right to comment. It depends on could I accept it or not. Of course I will accept it if I think it is right and good for me to have a change while I will forget it if I think I shouldn't put any attention on it.
Anyway, I am still learning and keep changing....
Till now still, I can't really define myself WHO AM I!

Wah, I never like pets..not to say I don't like, maybe I just have phobia for pets, dogs, cats, tortoise....etc...fishes are stil okay...

I enjoy dancing, reading, writing and listening to songs!!! I have tonnes of mp3s in my pc...

Sleeping and eating....eh....I'm the opposite...I am a light sleeper, sometimes even have insomnia problems....eating...I'm not so particular in eating, as long as can quench my hunger....but I'm rather choosy at food though

Who Am I?

A movie title right? The one acted by Jackie Chan?

Who Am I?

I'm just a ordinary boy...prefer to use my nickname Nicodemus rather than my real name which has no significance with my nick. :P

Well...anyone who knows me would just say the same thing bout me. Clever...that's the only thing they sum me up as. ( not to brag about myself )

For those who understands me well, which only one or two does, i'm more of an introvert than an extrovert. Depends on the situation. I prefer to keep all my problems to myself rather than finding a friend to share it. That is why i have only one friend that actually knows my problems...

Introvert I may be, but in a group of friends, I may be very active. Sometimes I can just talk non-stop with some close friends but after a while, I'll shut down, pinned to a corner. :?

Sometimes i don't understand myself, my emotions, my thoughts...

My emotions? Crazy stuff...one moment you see me happy, the next thing I'll be sad in no time. That's why sometimes I prefer to seek refuge in my room rather than go out with my friends. Perharps this has something to do with my feelings for a particular person... :?

Who Am I? I really hope somebody can tell me.....

well, i kind of like this site....thanks Chen Chow and other two creater of this site. YOu all are really amazing..and for all those people who posted their stories here...thanks... i really appreciate it!

To get to know people's experiences and lifes is one of the greatest joy in this world for me....because maybe i get to learn a lot from them......

I am 17...going to be 18 on this September...(1987 ).. an average chinese girl.......a virgo....hehe

I grow up with TVs, Music, songs..... I have seen a lot of movies, mostly English movies.....and i love music/songs a lot ..... they can be my friend, my life, my journal, my healer and my counsellor........
Music/songs controls my life! It's so magical that sometimes,it inspire me a lot.....so as movies....

Movies, TVs may be great... but reading is also has it's best part! Well, i don't really read much....But, the best part of reading novels or story books is you get to learn what did the charactor thinks and feels...which we usually can't find them in movies or TV shows...

*waits for nickvl to post about herself* ^^

HaHa.

Hmm...where do I start?

Right. My name. I don't mind either way, whether by my real name or nickname but somehow I prefer using my nickname when I'm online rather than my real one. In any case, people sometimes confuse my real name anyway, thinking it's a nickname in the first place. Ah, well...

So who am I?
Just an average person living an otherwise ordinary life. I guess I'm a straight person and not secretive by nature (except for the gender-guessing game which is just for pure fun :))). I have rather odd tastes like in music and I really love reading. I just sink into my own world when I do that. When I was younger, people would have to yell before I realise they were calling me. Books for me, I guess are like what DotA is to others. An addiction. The kind where you stayed up in the wee hours night after night. I was actually almost banned from reading when I kinda neglected my studies. I know. That certainly didn't earn me points in the Cool factor but what the heck.

I also find people interesting. Like what they feel and think. I guess that's why I enjoy reading people's blogs. There's just something so fascinating about it. On the other hand, I also like my alone time, where I just sit and think about anything and everything. Which sometimes makes people think I'm being emo but I'm not.

Well, that's pretty much what I can think of right now.

Fun Fact about nickvl: I do not have FB account. (yeah, that just got me negative points in Normal factor:P)

I resisted FB until the end of last year. Then I just had to make one to keep in touch with my hometown friends...
