New Year Resolution?

Wow, a blink of an eye and 2009 is almost gone. 2009 has been a great year minus the SPM and the farewell with my friends and teachers, ah memories! 2010 is arriving and what new year resolution have I got? Well, the simplest one would be to make 2010 a better year than 2009...but in terms of what? Health? No, I am free from serious illness, thank god. Studies? Yes,maybe...okay yes!SPM! Good results, please? Family, as I always wished, happy and loving family. Friends? Exactly, build good relationships with friends in Malaysia and also from all over the world. Also, garner all the knowledge and experience I could from the 6 months in the USA. Okayyyyy...I think that sums it all. Oh yeah, YSD second lvl assessment today. Nothing much but pretty much different from the normal interviews, well as you know it was assessment NOT interview. I passed the 1st stage, the group discussion which I was quite comfortable with. Then, 2nd stage, online assessment! I sort of struggled, no the fact was I screwed up haha. The verbal and numerical tests were my weakest because of time factor LOL, okay just had to admit that I was slow. Most probably wouldn't get it, even if I do, I wouldn't be able to attend the next round as I will be away for 6 months. No matter what, it was still an experience and I would treasure it for my future interviews.

That's all for now,I hereby wish everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR! May 2010 be a year full of colours and great events! Fireworks...

Cya...

Cloud nine

I am seriously the happiest girl on earth right now. I have got my placement and have been shortlisted for YSD Scholarship. Two good news in a day, THANK YOU GOD! I have been so curious about my placement especially and now finally I have got a host family. I will be hosted in TEXAS with another Brazil student! That is sooooo unbelievable yet incredible. As for the YSD one, I am not sure if I am lucky or just good enough to meet their requirements but anyhow, there's still the second stage which will be held very soon, OMG. Gratitude. I am floating on cloud nine.


Spot Texas!

Alright, sayonara for now. More to be done and hope everything runs smoothly.
Chow!

Wooppsie...

Realising the fact that BSM party was yesterday, my ERA (chehhh) had also became history. Being blessed with the opportunity to get together with the Form 5s (batch 08/09) was a rare thing and yesterday was one of the odd days we could spend our time together. I am so gonna miss BSMM SL(Y) 119. My baby. I am really (X10) missing those days where RCMs, camp, marching training etc were held. Sounding at the juniors was in fact an awkward deed for me. I had no experience in that though juniors freaked out when I roared, LOL. Now that I am taking a stroll down the memory lane, what a beautiful sight of year 08/09! Saying goodbye to BSM was never in my agenda as I'll be BACK (VAD hopefully). My besties throughout the whole journey of 08/09, Elaine, JY, Deeny, Sughan, Trishen,SH and the rest, you guys did a great job! I am gonna miss so many events in 2010, annual camp, sports day, first RCM...many more! All I could say to my dearie juniors, the current BOD is take care and lead well. Long live, Red Crescent!

PS: Leaving for the USA in 13 more days. Missed the Penang trip due to fever and flu, friends are now enjoying on behalf of me.

Acceptance

ACCEPTANCE allows you to bring the totality of yourself to life. Saying 'yes' to any situations or challenges in your way would more or less affect your life. Definitely, we have no choice between 'yes' and 'no' because the answer is always 'yes'. Things are hard to avoid no matter how hard we resist. We may opt to say 'no' initially, but sooner or later 'yes' comes in our way. Life wouldn't be life if there aren't any challenges. Most of the time, people struggle to make ends meet and their efforts are to no avail. It's still okay. At least, they once said 'yes' and mustered great courage to make an attempt. Be brave to embark a new life if you failed. The most effective remedy to destroy hatred and ruthlessness is none other than acceptance. Learning to accept would ensure that one attain the calmness in him and things would be seen in a better perspective.

I'm learning to accept more of what I loathe. Still learning and hoping to get the better of me.

Sincerely from,
Jocelyn

Outing

It was 23th Dec and it was the outing for the 3G-ers, yeah. We decided to meet up at Midvalley and thanks to Lidia, I was the only girl there (she ffk me). So, I met Sam, Suthan and George there at about 12 something. I was late because of you know what, TRAFFIC JAM! Luckily, dad didn't grumble much hehe. We went to have our lunch in Kenny Roger's, ordered the family meal as we wanted to recall back how loving we were to each other during camp last year, LOL. It was fun trying to refresh our memories in the camp. We gobbled our food, definitely. The guys were kinda aggressive as they kept on refilling their drinks. Later on, it was time for a movie, and Sam lost his ticket, GREAT. But we talked to the ticket people and they willingly helped us, or else 22 bucks gone for Sam! Yeah, we watched 3G Avatar. I felt that there wasn't much difference between the normal one and the 3G. Anyway, the movie was great, James Cameron rocks! I like Sam Worthington, he's HOT.


I know, I know, we were trying to act cool, but weren't we cool???

Bidding Goodbye

Finally after 5 days of dance practice, we had to bid goodbye to each other before we could meet again in January for our pre-departure orientation. It was really fun having the chance to spend most of our time with all 46 YES-ers. Will miss Yan Rou's cool attitude, Navee's never-ending sarcasm, Kee Boon's fancies towards shopping (still remember her ambition was to create her own engine), and definitely Merryn's funny expressions that always make me laugh like a crazy girl. Of course, it was just a temporary farewell. No words can describe how thankful I am to be able to experience these moments with everyone including Abg Wan, and the rest of the YES Alumni.

PS: Penang trip and BSM partay cmin up. Busy busy busy...

WEE!

Facts that I found out from Mr Faisal (Yes Alumni):
-transits in Dubai and Heathrow (London)
-luggage weight of max 20 kg
-strictly NO LAPTOPS
-pre-departure camp on 11th January 2010

Yeah, that's about it, had been busy these days with cultural dance. It has been a great experience and yes, I'm part of the Sarawak dance, being always the slowest to pick up, I still enjoyed the bamboo dance especially, I had tried that dance before but never in the right way, thanks to Abang Wan's patience, I finally got it. *yawn*
I seriously need some rest after these few days with the train rides and all. However, that was pretty a good way to train myself. Jocelyn, being always dependant on her parents for transport, finally is able to stand on her on feet to get back to her house from KL. WEE!

Friday, December 18, 2009

Uhh...

I swear I'm so not a dancing material, picking up a cultursl dance was in fact a hard thing to do...hopefully tomorrow would be a better day, as in my performance. HEE.

The Glitters (SJ Prom)

A night which all have been waiting for so long (not me though)...yesterday was the prom nite of SMK Subang Jaya for the year 2009! The boys had their tuxedos or coats on to show off their masculine side while the girls let their hair down or maybe set up their hair like princesses and dressed up marvellously to portray their feminine side, in other words their voluptous bodies. An event attended by around 100 over (I assumed)students and non-students of SJ, it was certainly a glittering night for all of them. But one thing which I felt was lame was the theme, "Angels and Demons". Haha.That night was not only meant for glamour, but it was also about having fun with friends! Here are some pictures of the night,








The Gang












PS: For the first time, I danced with my heels on, and that hurts, in addition to the aches I've got from badminton.

Fantastic


Pentax Optio S10

Got a new digital camera which my uncle bought it for me at staff price...if not, it will cost me an arm and a leg. It's light, handy and easy to use. Definitely an ideal one for me.

PS: I'm rather apprenhensive about my placement in my host family.

Hell-o Again

This is crazy..I am blogging twice a day..it's not like I am not busy, but I begin to love blogging. As you can see, random blogging is so not my type but I'm now doing it. A trivia about me: I get too excited easily..so I guess blogging can overcome this problem of mine. I am curious to know my host family and the place I would be heading to! I think god thinks that it wouldn't do me any good if I were to find out the details of my host family earlier because of my so annoying syok sendiri-ness, so it's best I get to know later which means it could be as late as a day bëfore I leave. Yea well, i guess patience help! Signing off..

Eagerly waiting...

Found out that I will be hosting Merryn from Perak...looking forward to meet her!
May everything goes fine throughout that period.

Nostalgia











I was cleaning my room and found these...lol just ignore the flash, i was in a dark room and wanted to make those pics clear. Aww...how I missed those moments!

PS: Finally done with my books!

Hooray!

OMG! I can't believe it's over! SPM is finally OVER! Wait, here's another thing to fret about... preparation to the USA! It will be a massive jam for me for the whole month of December, but it's gonna be fun and challenging. The first thing that students ought to do right after their last paper is to go home and have a good sleep to rejuvenate and that's what I thought I would be doing. But hell no, I went home yesterday for a shower and headed straight to Subang Parade to purchase my new handphone. I wasn't desperate or whatsoever, but it was the fact that I needed a new one, even the salesgirl was laughing at my SO CALLED STONE AGE phone. I've got a NOKIA 5730 Xpress Music for myself. No wait, my mum bought it for me. I had lunch/ dinner at TGIF and the portion was really big that we had to take away some of those we've ordered, probably we were too greedy at the moment we looked at the menu. Although exams are over, I would still love to make a hypothesis for myself. The lesser the number of exams held, the more energised I am. I yawn as I open my books to study, but I become 100% awake after exams. Ironic huh? Interesting? Or weird? Or does the same thing apply to everyone? Adrenaline rush works on me. Why do I say so? Because I currently starring at the computer, typing out crappy stuffs in my blog, when I'M SUPPOSE TO BE CLEANING MY ROOM! DON'T BLAME ME. It's the consequences for not hooking onto the computer for...maybe 2months? 4 weeks of "LOCK MYSELF IN THE ROOM" = 1 long crappy, ridiculous post, reasonable huh? Here's another thing, say bye-bye to HIGH SCHOOL and my blue-white uniform! Oh yes, say bye-bye to Malaysian high school but say hello to American high school! But no more uniform...sobz?


OH MAN! My books for the past 2 years...

BYEBYE my dearest uniform...

Down-to-earth my dear!

My dear Jocelyn,
Please come back to reality for SPM is not over yet...you still have one more to go and WAKE UP man! Opps...
