Yearning for the ability to impress is one's nature. Many chose to walk on this path, without knowing what they has actually stepped on . Some gained it easily, some never does, yet some has forgotten how to.
Sometimes, to impress others is easy, you spend 1 hour of your time digging out vocabs, rephrasing, forming a piece of literature that you don't even understand fully, a philosophy that you don't agree with entirely. Then you expect and wait for agreements to come, compliments that will come soon after, comply with theories that does not even stand for your heart. You may impress others, they are fools to you, fools who don't understand you, but can you possibly impress yourself with that? I sincerely doubt it, I don't doubt your statement, I doubt you.
My world, I feel sad for you.
People, how much do you understand about the word "impress"?
Dictionary.com has so to say
1.to affect deeply or strongly in mind or feelings; influence in opinion.
2.to fix deeply or firmly on the mind or memory, as ideas or facts.
Remember that sentence "some has forgotten how to impress"? Pardon me, I am referring to myself.
Notice that I have deleted many of my previous posts? I did it without much hesitation.
Pardon me again, the me now can no longer agree to the me before. You may want to call this evolution, but I don't, I don't give an excuse for myself. I call it awakening, from a long sleep I shouldn't have been in. How refreshing it is now. I have someone to thank.
I am used to impressing other people most of my life, sometimes I impresses naturally, sometimes I don't. Question me. I wanted to impress, I once yearned to..like any of you that might be reading this, I learned to impress, and now I am forsaking what I learned?
Hmm... what an irony. Let it stop just as an irony, because it is. I can provide no explaination for this, following my heart and mind is my priority all along, I don't answer to anybody.
To me, an essay that is only written to impress does not impress, no matter how high marks it might get in an exam, a statement that is made up of vocabs does not necessary impress as well, they should best be placed in the recycle bin. They have no values in them.
Reason? They are not written with a heart. Sometimes they just look so fake, made up for all the wrong reason.
Let us go back to what dictionary.com said just now.
To affect deeply or strongly in mind or feelings? to fix deeply or firmly on the mind or memory, as ideas or facts?
I questioned myself before, now let me question you, can you possibly influence others,deeply, firmly, strongly when you are not even aware fully of what you say or write? Let me guess, for most of you, your answer is a yes. Then a yes it is, congratulations you can join politics, give your followers your empty words, blind promises and let the world rot in your hand. I will be glad to observe from behind.
As of now, I do not write to impress, I write as a reminder, I write for myself. I am being sarcastic as usual, to the one part of me before and to lots of people out there ( a lot, I can't stop counting)
I don't ask for forgiveness if this insults, instead I beg for you to turn away, go to facebook twitters whatever you call and you will find tonnes of such things, but first let me impress you with a theory :
Indulgence is an addiction, an addiction that hypnotize, a dream that ravages, a poison that take over your senses and soon put you over eternal infatuation. To impress is not an urge, rather a reward; a thing not earned by defying honesty, sincerity, rather a gift granted by holding on to your perception and heart. Learn by heart, learn by soul, not by giving empty words. Empty words accounts for an empty soul, a rubbish that is.

HSC Life
Maths Extension 2
Low in numbers, but with 10 hours of lessons a week, no doubt we are like a small family.
And this is also where some mischievious boys gather, the same boys that most teachers usually have problems disciplining them during the secondary school years.
But, suprisingly, harsh lessons have left them no time to display their small tricks and plays. In fact, they have spent hours and lessons trying to cope with their studies.
Remember, this is HSC, not primary school !
And the best part of Ext 2 Maths is that
1.It requires you to twist your knowledge, to read x 1 and study x 100000 the questions.
That is why, what you must do is understanding the concept and not memorising the already available past-year solutions.
2.To master Extension 2, you must be very flexible
Some "alphabet-blind" students don't even know how to interchange x and t !!!!
That is why, next time before you ever decide to enrol in Ext 2, you must x 10000 consult the Ext 2 lecturer, and make sure you tell your siblings to never give up any questions in secondary maths. Because............
You will end up failing in University, because the way you study is totally wrong, even though University is the best part of life.
It has never been easy task in solving Extension 2 problems, and THAT is why We MUST have group discussions. See, teamwork...

Pek-Chek Doing Maths
3. Advices
Throughout the whole course, we have been continually brainwashed=? with advices, criticisms and remarks regarding our works(refer to zlik's blog). Some may appear harsh, and some may not accept it, but some are truth nonetheless.(Note : only some) Yes, I do think that sometimes it is very hard to accept the truth, or rather, it is very hard to admit the truth.
PhysicS
Still interesting, but most are serious stuffs, so there are nothing much to be discussed here.
However, it has been a debatable issue that we only "learn by copying" where all the explainations have been given in the notes. Well, everyone has their prefered way of learning. It is only a matter of personal preference, there is really no who is right or who is wrong.
As for me, it does not matter as I have been trapped in this way of learning since secondary schools. In fact, some of my secondary school teachers don't even have experience in teaching, some don't bother to teach seriously and some are keen to be involved in road accidents and left their places vacant for half a year !!!
Cis + shake head + grin!
Therefore, for students living in poverty like me who do not even had enough money to attend tuitions previously -grin-(beat me up if you want), I had learned to strive in the worst condition. There is no use just grumbling and doing nothing.
In the midst of serious study, there are times when the class got seriously COLD with interesting stories,(air-con malfunction???) which lights up/darken the atmosphere of boredom.
1. A bird was hanging on top of an electric cable at night. A misplacement of its feet on an uncoated cable left it electrocuted and subsequently caught in gulfs of flame . (wow. from pidgey -> zaptos -> moltres?)cool. Fortunately, a man witnessed this but unfortunately, he couldn't do anything do help the pitiful bird. This Fortunately x 3 led to the birth of an interesting story... and maybe the birth of a new Gastly as well.?!?
2. Miracles don't happen overnight. You can't get more intelligent by just praying and doing the same routine everyday. However, being hit by a discus on the skull may be worth trying, provided that if you are willing to put your life on the line for better results. Beware, you may have to spend the rest of your life as a half-live-half-dead paralysed mummy in the hospital. Okay, here goes the story.
A not-so-clever boy was desperate to become clever. One day, he was playing on the field. His not-so-clever attitude encouraged him to play even when other students were practising discus throwing. In the end, it was again his not-so-clever attitude that encouraged him not to evade the incoming discus that inevitably hit his skull. So, the God felt guilty and decided to compensate him by removing the not to let him become a so-awesomely-clever boy. Amazed? Don't try this at home. *I mean in the field.
Chemistry
This lesson is even more serious than physics. No one dares to try anything funny in front of the lecturer, not when alik and his crews are not in this class as it will be only judgement that comes after. By judgement, I mean a really tough serious "rapping".
Nothing much but throughout this class, I have learned that all cooked food have been processed with chemicals and in the end, raw food is still the best. Thumbs up to sashimi.
Ohya, b4 I only realised mayonnaise is an oil-in-water emulsion but I never realise it is bad for our brain. Cis!! Kindly avoid consuming if you are desperate to become a genius.
ESL
A place where a God and her minions reside. Gods are usually almighty, but looks like the minions have left this God a hard time. All sorts of things happen in this Lecture Heaven 404. Perhaps, it is a heaven for the minions but perhaps not for the God.
Infamous inspirational codenames for the minions include piranha, old man, and innocent maggie. Shakehead for minion no.1 and minion no.2 who always try to popularise minion no.3.
All sorts of jokes, all sorts of patterns and all sorts of respectful salutes have emerged to be too much to handle by the God, and in the end the God has become more like her minions.
"This God is happy to meet fellow ESLlings but at the same time, meeting ESLlings means shorter lifespan for this God" quoted by ................
Good job. Fellow ESLings
Lucipher cannot be killed, immortal but not invincible. But the life of this Lucipher will certainly go better after her minions bid her farewell in less than half a month time.

Malaysia In danger ?!?!
http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2009/10/4/focus/4839822&sec=focus
Nothing much...but came across a very very exhilarating news.
If you are free, kindly proceed and have a look at the link above. I am sure it will not be disappointment that come after.
To make it short, it is about a group of self-proclaimed "vigilance comittees" that has currently revealed their plans of "Ganyang Malaysia" .
*Ganyang means destroy. Learned from Sejarah few years ago. Zlik : *thumbs up
And ....Yes they actually revealed their plans !!!
Is this pure stupidity, or is this just a mere distraction to hide their REAL plans and outsmart us?
They claimed to have got 145 millions of spies in Malaysia, and they are willing to spend RM 145000 to keep in contact with SMSes(over a single forward) ..... so Beware folks...(esp of maids and workers)
Their arrogance, or rather what we call "naiveness" is clearly depicted in the refined hyperbole in ' “On paper, we have already won,” xxx said, again flashing his crooked teeth.'
Their pure arrogance again impressed me, when they were questioned about their plans.
But this time, I call it Irony.( Credit goes to ESL)
- about 300 Indonesians – trained in ilmu kebal (black magic) which makes them invincible to sharp objects and bullets(It reminds me of Kapten Hassan and Tuk Janggut) – would invade Malaysia by attacking Malaysian towns in the island of Borneo (where Indonesia’s Kalimantan and Malaysia’s Sabah and Sarawak are located).
“From Pontianak (in Kalimantan) we will cross to Kuching (in Sarawak) and capture it. And then we will go to the next town. And from Nunukan (in Kalimantan) we will cross to the next town,” he said.
“What is that town?” I asked xxx, XXXXXXX’s war strategist.
“I don’t know the name. But it is the town that we are going to capture,” he declared. (hahaha..this is the funniest part, even more in the real article)
(Just for the record, the closest Malaysian town to Nunukan is Tawau in Sabah.)
In six to eight months, he confidentally predicted, XXXXXXX would conquer Kuala Lumpur.
With a number of 300, will it even be necessary to put up a resistance? We will see. Oh sorry...they are "kebal" after all.
After reading, I thought this is an interesting piece of article, especially with the tons of "naiveness and originality" as its focus, so I decide to share it with my fellow friends.
"naiveness and originality"- Perhaps it is time to clarify, I like this kind of people, they may be arrogant, overthoughtful and sometimes a little self-centered, but they carry their own opinions and they make good and sincere friends. Certainly, they are not people with pretentious attitude and with "banyak motives" in their words and who may APPEARs to be so good to you and bad-mouthing you behind your back....(won't go any further). Don't you think they are interesting?
*Don't be offended. It is just my opinion after all.
Advice :
Don't, and never underestimate your foes. We will never know what will happen.

Are you 1st, 2nd or 3rd ? ? ?
Have you ever consider what type of friends you are having? After hearing what I have to say, you might need to reconsider...
It is already late at night, I suppose I will be straighforward.
So, theoretically, there are 3 classes of friends. Lets start from the very bottom.
3rd- Class Friends
1. Not long ago, we have 1 famous BM quote " Diam-diam ubi(s) berisi." Bingo! ! !They are third class friends... Excluding that SOSAM loudmouth of course.
2. In short, these friends are those who would just happily sit back and grin quietly ( ? ) at you when you are in trouble. Of course, a much worse case would be backstab.
3. They will always say "I am stupid. I know nothing. I am a failure" when they actually know everything.
4. They practice modesty and they don't like to show off, especially to girls.
5. They don't, and will never like to be " Heroes / Heroines".
6. They like to indulge in their own fantasy.
7. They prefer not to know you, but at least they are NOT pretentious. (- 7 in 2nd class.)
2nd- Class Friends
1. They like to pohhhh
2. They like being pohhhh.
*pohhhh means saying nice words which "APPEARS" to be nice. "Appears" only!!
3. They like to both pohhhh and being pohhhh at the same time.
4. They like to become Pinochio. ( The cartoon boy with long nose. Perhaps long neck as well? oooOoooo. Nice hint.)
5. They gain friends by pohhhh-ing others and sponsor them free answers. ( go to 7 in 1st class.)
6. They feel happy when doing all the above.
7. They are "pretentious" SOBA students!!!!
8. They are best at camouflage and taking many sides at a time.
9. They will always say "your shirt is dirty" and clean the dust for you, even when it is actually dust-LESS (Hyperbole) !!!
10. They will NOT shake head. They only nod. * ZhengLik : Shake head x 100000
-Congratulations, ZhengLik.-
11. They will greet you with words like " yo, entao ~.~" and "geng lo" but also secretly cursing you from behind. (Just an example.) *ZhengLik : still Shaking head. Take wrong pills.?!?!
And Finally.......
1st- Class Friends
1. They are the only good guys, but yet they are treated as "bad guys"? Again, this can be treated as the "after effect" of honesty.
2. They may use harsh words like "your head la", and "go and dye!! " on you. But don't be mistaken, it is for your own good.
3. They will leave a lot of wonderful and creative comments on your question papers such as :"It is a nuisance using liquid paper."(The truth often hurts) and " Ganbateh"
4. They don't encourage you to use liquid papers. 1 liquid paper cost RM5.xx. However, they will advice you that IF you really need to use, make sure you USE MORE. Don't leave stains behind.
*ZhengLik : stop shaking head. Journey to ICU.....
5. They are HONEST. Honesty is the "worst" policy. That is why 1st-class friends are seldom being appreciated by others.
6. They are not SOBA students.
p/s : SOBA ONLY refers to "School of Obedient Band-6 actors" in the above case.
7. They don't simply give their friends free answers but teach, scold and also take the "extra trouble" to CRITICISE them carefully.
8. They can make themselves being welcomed by others,
Buuuut
THEY choose not TO.
Huiyo!!!!
- End of explaination-
After listing this, I notice that 2nd-class friends are by no means better than 3rd-class friends. In fact, they are even worse.
Do you find these types of friends among your mates?
I suppose the above notice would be helpful.
Beware.....
Perhaps it is also time to reconsider yourself as well.

Codename : Agent Backstab
Do you play chess? Or rather, have you even played chess before?
If you say no, then you should really go and knock your head against the wall.
To many others, a chess may just be a small game;
But in reality, a chess is a war,
Or rather, a war is a game of chess..
A war is all about strategies, tactics , how to use the "lecturer's eyes" and "lecturer's ears"
correctly, how you control your subordinates....bla bla bla etc...
Okay, I admit it, I am not good at this type of philosophical things...
Buuuut, certainly this is not the main point.
Huh? Why did I even spend so much time in it then?
To be honest, if I keep this up, I am afraid that the royal bishop JS is going to kill me for mocking his favourite game chess like this, not to even mention the rooks, knights...etc. ( Waa, level 3 analysis ?! =.=)
But certainly not the pawns, for they are the main subjects here.
Okay, time to continue ...
To me, pawns are the most important pieces in chess as they make up half the population,
Okay, I was wrong, they are second most important after the King.
p/s : My own theory. Sorry if offending. JS, don't kill me...
(Next time will put bishop most important. But.......That is NEXT TIME!! !)
And their small misbehaviour will result in a "fatal" checkMATE...
Straight to the point, these pawns, or also known as royal messengers.... (the name that they usually use to comfort themselves with.) * ZhengLik :Shake head. x 10
But, with technology gaining its importance in the modern era, seems like these pawns have totally gone out of control, even daring enough to backstab their own king...
Not only they misuse SMSes, now they even misuse e-mail accounts,
What is more, they blame their Best Friends * ZhengLik :Shake head x 100
Their rebellious and aggressive side is even more obvious when they decide to overthrow their own king, but ended up dragging innocent ZhengLik in the Process :
By backstabbing two of his fellow friends, one of them to be known as ZhengLik, this pawn, apparently known to be Agent I.G's best friend, and in desperation for entertainment, he sent an e-mail to a lecturer which contained 2 xXx links(don't misunderstand, in maths, x is just no more than an unknown,and X is bigger unknown??CoOl...), which one of them appeared to be http://zhenglik.blogspot.com/ !!!!!
*ZhengLik: Shake head x 1000.
This is purely bad attitude. From now on, you are Agent Backstab. Perhaps you are the one betraying us as well. *ZhengLik: -GRIN-
But, in the end, the failure still goes to the King as his highness does not teach his subordinates well. *ZhengLik: Shake head x 0.100000000000000000000(decimal matters)
Suggestion : Next time should use TORTURE !
*The King bid his utmost and sincere apology to ZhengLik, for his lack of control towards his undisciplined pawns.
BuuuUT, in return, ZhengLik should say thanks to Cy for helping him voicing out his frustration... ( Just another suggestion)
