Clouds?
The above title: clouds, is the title for my essay on Monday.
What should I write?
Cannot be too factual, or it will easily doze people off.
Too fictional may cause lost of direction of essay.
(Sigh) Don't know what should I write..
(This few days I am not in 'Blogging' gear)

Changed my blog address; Rubik's Cube-Is there any connection?
No, of course! But maybe there are two poles apart: one is to make yourself easier, another is to make yourself complicated.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
To make everyone's life easier, I shortened and modified my blog web address, so it won't be so loooooooooooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng.
=====================================================
This morning, was a gloomy one. Rain kept pouring, and drizzle, on and off. And is stops near the afternoon.
It is not strange to see people playing with Rubik's cube in class. Nevertheless, it is still a toy. A best-selling toy around the world. As of January 2009, there are 390 million cubes sold worldwide.
I don't like playing it, honestly. It's not a game that waste your time, but a game to puzzled you and make life more miserable, unless you know the tricks and formula, and can unscramble it with no hassle.
I overheard a conversation between Ying Hong and Aaron. And they are discussing about the dimensions of the Rubik's cube.
I don't really remember it, but it was kind of crappy. With they talking about this 3-D puzzle becoming a 5-D or more, the talk makes the whole thing sounds funny.
The Rubik's cube fever had come and go, and come.
Mr. Williams commeted:
This game was a very popular game back in the 80s and 90s. And you still play
it?Maybe not exactly what he said, but something there.
No matter what, this fever will sure last, at least untill this year.

Good Friday-Easter Day
Crucify & Resurrection of Jesus-these are important dates all Christian will remember forever, because Jesus had died for our sins.
Unfortunately, I am stucked in the grey line between atheism and Christanity. Quite pathetic, is it? I believe that Jesus died for our sins, but my family members strongly disagree my faith.
Every night, I say my prayer-the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6:9–13; Luke 11:2-4), I had remembered it always, and I pray every assembly in school, every time I need divine intervention, every time I want to seek guidance from Him.
Every time, cryptically, and silently.
Oh, I wish that I will practice my faith openly.

Dramatic day for Drama
Oh......Dear, today is a very, very dramatic day. People say D-Day was the day where the Allies had landed France in WWII, I say this D-Day stands for 'Drama-Day'.
Yes, it is the Petaling Utama District Inter-school English Drama Competition. And as most of you all know, I am one of the cast in the drama team, to represent SMJK Katholik to compete.
4.12 am. That's HOW early I woke up today. Why? Just for make-up. Apparently, one of the cast's (Re Gin) mother had found us a make-up studio academy to help us in make-up for free. Yes, no charge involved.
When I reached there, there's only Yee Teng who almost have her face getting done. So, they also start making up my face. Then, other cast reached here as well, quite later.
"Where is the dramatism?" You may think, well, NOT YET! So, at around 5, everyone is here and starting to do their face. Then, suddenly...........
"Yee Teng, did you bring my roses?"
"I didn't take your roses. It's not in my bag."
"I didn't take the roses too. Where could it be?"
"Maybe someone had taken it and play or throw it away."
"I think Mr. Williams had taken it, why don't you give him a call?"
They called. And the teacher had the roses in his hands. In addition, he had made two pink dresses for the lower body for Godesses of Lust. Off phone, one of the cast (Fareen) said that she rather quit the team than wearing that pink dress.
I also had my problems, and it was regarding my make-up. My eyes irritate because of the, maybe, cosmetic products, where people normally also have when they just started make-up. Fortunately, with the help of Re Gin's mum (You are so helpful, auntie), I get my eyes washed so that it doesn't irritate so badly.
Then, it was closer to 7am. And everyone is not ready yet. Re Gin's mother, again, had helped us by calling a friend of hers, Madam Wu, to send some of us to a cast's house to take some essential items, and send us to the venue, SMK Taman S.E.A.
We reached the hall, and found out that we are the earliest team that arrived at 7.15 am. So we tried out the stage. Mr. Williams came next. Then the rest of the cast came too.
The dramatic part is here. The teacher ordered her to wear the pink dress, whereas Fareen had her stand clear-she doesn't want to wear it. So, there is a standoff that I can't describe happened here. And the result, Fareen retained her stand.
Later, Re Gin's mother had came to the venue, and also brought along 3 members of the academy to do touchups and chagnes. Well, mine was the biggest.
Suddenly, the PA started the event. And there are applause by other team. "Oh my god! The competition is going to start, how am I going to be done?"
We are the second team of the day, and we had to prepare ourselves while the first team was performing. And when they were announcing the start of the event, I am still in the middle of my add-on! Fortunately, they had managed to finsh quickly and I quickly grab my stuffs before they closed the doors for the teams to perform in a quiet condition.
After roughly 18 minutes, we were in the gent's changing room, saying our prayer, to hope that our performance will be a good show. Then, it's our turn.
Between the changes of scenes, we quickly put on our black masks and fingernails that was arranged properly by Brian (Thanks very much). Well, I managed to got all 10 nails, but then my left thumb's got off.
When it comes to the end, "You had made a wrong choice, Dr. Faustus!", "Make a wise choice to live with honour and dignity. There's where lies true joy........", the microphone had some problems and the narrator cannot continue his words. Luckily, the lead role, Zi Yi knew how to yell "No!" at the end.
After the show, we had questioned the failure of the microphone was merely a technical problem or done intentionally. We had think of sabotage, but had it fade away when the competition was undergoing.
After 8 teams had performed, now comes to the time, the moment of truth. The delibration among the judges. While the judges were delibrating, we had an interact session with the host of the reigning champion, and the last year national's champion, SMK Taman S.E.A..
The judges were back, and they gave comments: don't use the word 'shit' when you forgot your lines; don't speak too much while you were doing movements; etc.
"Going in 3rd place is......" We had hold our hands tight while the PA announcing the results.
"SMK ___________(Sorry, I forgot!)!"
Our feelings were tensed into the next level.
"Second place is.........team 5, SMK Taman S.E.A.!"
"Oh my god! Are we............."
"And this is the moment all of you had waiting. The first place goes to............"
"The tragic case............"
We shouted in joy even before the PA finished her announcement. It was too unbelievable, it was too unexpected. We had never ever think that we can get through this tough competition with the reigning champion as the host. Some broke into tears, while others hug each other.
It was an unbelievable experience, hard to believe it came true.
I hereby would like to thank all of those who helped us so much, especially our director, scriptwriter, and much more roles-taker, Mr. Williams in guiding us. I also would like to thank Re Gin's mother (nicknamed Esther by our teacher) for giving us support and found us a sponsor. I would like to thank the teachers for thier comments and guidiance. But most of all, I would like to express my greatest gratitude to all cast members, who had worked so much for the past weeks. We had endured a lot of obstacles and challenges, even the competition day itself. It's been a journey that will be remembered untill death. Once again I would like to thank all who had worked so hard and so much.
And, we shall make Petaling Utama proud!

Illicit-The Dark Trade
The title above, is a title for an episode of National Geographic documentary show.
I watched it, just now, on RTM1, your national TV station.
Although only half of it (it will continue tomorrow), it had already made an impact to me.
Is it scary to know that a kidney can be faked? Is it scary to realise that there are fake pharamaceutical products out there?
Well, this is the truth.
This forge market, had gone more than you think. Some may think that you can go to Golok and buy counterfeited products, or say that China has a lot of fake products. Actually, it had gone much futher. It had gone globally.
I think, that anything can be forged, but not things that relates to your body, like Panadol or Burnol. If you had watched the show, the part where they show how people forged medicines horrors you. Can you believe, that the yellow-coated-fake-medicine's coating comes from the paint you paint along the road and lead? I hate this part.
I still can't believe that people actually forged kidneys in India.
Throughout the show, I feel very creepy.
