Life as an Art Teacher....

As some may know, I have accepted an offer to become an art teacher at the sister company of Alfa, REAL International School. This is my third day as an art teacher for the students from year 8 till 11. I must say that it was a whole different experience having to deal with the younger ones. Granted they are not all that young but I am surprised how just a mere 3 to 4 years shows so much difference in thinking and maturity. I knew it was bound to happen but this was way too different.

But I guess it is not so much the age that matters. More so to the effect of current styles of bringing up have changed so much since my time. In my days, students did harbour dislikes and hatred towards certain teachers, but like it or not, we still had to respect them for who they are. But today, the kids hold no respect whatsoever. The worst part of it all is not so much the disrespect, but the attitude of the kids nowadays are just outright rude.

It makes me wonder whether parents these days spend much time being with their children in educating them or rather if they spend any time with the kids at all. It is disheartening to know that the community and society of Malaysia is not at all moving forward but instead, going the other way around. The kids have a part to blame for this but I would not hold them accountable as much as I would, the parents. It is foremost, education at home before education outside. Fact of the matter is that schools are here to develop skills but the home is where character is built. It is said that children are a reflection of the parents, but I would rephrase it as more of a reflection of the home culture.

Kids are impressionable. They absorb what they see and do as they see fit.

If this situation continues, I weep for humanity's future....

*SIGH*

My Best Friend's Wedding....

We used to climb our favourite tree together, sharing stories and catching up on the things which happened for the past week. When we finally got bored of talking, we would find ways to entertain ourselves. I remember this clearly in my mind just as though it was yesterday. We had our groupie, if you may. Often consisted of Kenny, his cousins Yao Yang, Jin Fei, Wei Yen and myself, we were always seen together whenever we were in the church premises. We were like the Asian version of the Famous Five but without the mysteries to solve. There were the additions of Leslie and Chin Chin on certain occasions but they would normally only join us when we were tasked to take care of them. Granted, they were about six to seven years younger than us.

As times went by, Jin Fei and Wei Yen left the group when their parents decided to change church. It was left with the three of us and I can still recall our Sunday routine. It would always be a meet up after attending Sunday School, then we would walk all the way from SS17 to SS15 for an hour or two of computer games at the cyber-cafe. Then, we would go for lunch at the nearby coffee shop. The usual fried rice ala Thai would be ordered and after that, we would walk from SS15 to Kenny's place in SS19. After a session of resting and refreshing ourselves, we would make our way to either The Valley Club or the nearby bungalow lot, converted into half a basketball court to shoot some hoops. Then it was time to go home and I'd walk back to USJ2.

It was a simple routine which involved a lot of walking but I felt that the walking was where the most fun was for us. It was during that time which we talked most and although the scorching sun burned our skins, it was well worth it. I remembered that we made a promise with each other saying that no matter what happened, our friendship would remain as how it is and never change. True enough, we actually held on to that promise until today. We are as how we were and I believe, would be in the future.

There was a time when we were parted because of our studies and our careers. We each took separate paths and for a moment, we were on our own. Somehow, God has fated that one day, we would still meet up and eventually, we did. The beauty of it was that even after the long haul of not communicating with one another, we could still pick up where we left off. there were no "warming-up", "re-conditioning", nor were there any awkwardness between us. We just resumed our ways as how it was last time. But I did notice one thing. Like it or not, Kenny has somehow changed. He was still the Kenny I knew him to be, but now, there was like a "bonus". He was like a "Kenny" with added-on "something".

I guess, at this point, you would predict where this entry is leading to ... HIS MARRIAGE! He was engaged to his long-time girlfriend and honestly, it was because of Yen Yee that Kenny has become an even better person than what he already was. It is times like this that really makes me see the true power of love in a person's life. On the day of his wedding, I was honoured to be asked to be his groom's men. I am not sure about others, but as far as I am concerned, I felt that their wedding was one which was beautiful. It wasn't because of aesthetics, but more-so because my childhood best friend was going to take the next major step in his life. The feeling was like as though you were watching someone really close to you graduate in his or her studies. Seeing that makes me happy about his achievement.

Kenny and Yen Yee, here's to you, wishing that you will have a great and wonderful marriage. I can't really advise you on marriage life as I, myself, am not married. But if there is one common advise I can give to the both of you (and I am sure you would have heard this before) is that, it takes both the sun and the rain to create a rainbow.

God bless the two of you!

The Rationale of Irrational Stupidity....

It is, yet again a gloomy Monday. Monday seems to be the blame for everything isn't it? For the crappy mood, the boring feelings, the lack of enthusiasm and the lot.... But what is the main cause of it all? What makes Mondays so blue?

As the words of the wise Master Wu Guay says, "I don't know."

I guess it's a matter of perception. People react differently towards the same item of discussion, be it Mondays, movies, books, stuff ... people.... but to that, are we correct in doing what is done? people form opinions and it stays with them until an epiphany happens. While some people manage to realize what is perceived wrongly, most are not so fortunate. Oftentimes, people receive epiphany when something they think does not go as how it was thought to be. By then, it would be too late already, wouldn't it?

But that, to be honest, does not defend the fact that some people fight on and insisting on their decision and thoughts that they still hold on to it for the sake of (blatantly put without emotions) selfish gains. I just attended a seminar run by the company I work for on establishing a code of honour. It wasn't anything I have not learned in BB before but the seminar wasn't particularly for me. It was for the staff of the company. One of the code states and I quote, "Put the company's mission and vision first, group second, and individual third." It is so easily said and basically summarizes the whole set of codes and I believe if it was followed, it would make things flow so easily. Sadly, the human factor is always there to interfere with an already functioning system.

It is also an issue of pride, when in terms of making a stand, but why do people still make stands on what they know to be wrong? Sometimes, the pride speaks so loudly that they are even listening with a deaf ear in hopes to just shut the other person up when he or she is done. Why does irrational behaviour like this happen? When emotions interfere with system, irrational behavior and thoughts take place and when that happens, stupidity is evident in all aspects. There will never be a commendable decision or act taking place.

Questions remain unanswered as we are all different in ways we tackle a situation. However, I just wish people use their God given talent while making decisions. The ability to THINK properly in the interest of the common benefits, be it a company, group or individual.

X-Con for Yo Blitz Ryan

I thought it'd be fun to modify the packaging instead of the yoyo this time round...



The X-Con is short for the X-Convict.
With that type of name, I believe it is only suitable to give a prison cell look for the packaging design. Sigh.... I miss doing packaging designs.... =)

War and Business.... So similar, yet a whole world of difference....

Here, taken from Seki's "re-interpretation" of the book of the School of Hard Knocks, comes a book titled, "Seki's Book on Business THROUGH Knocking Hard on the Wall." This article serves as a experiential testimony which supposedly would benefit a business graduate who has undertaken perhaps four to six years of extensive university courses studying the very topic of business administration and management.

Our topic for today is on responsibility and trust. Here, we take two examples of situations in terms of military and it's supposed link to business. Very much like in the military, the word "responsibility" is taken to the utmost priority. When given a task, a unit or a group must do all they can to ensure the duty is carried out with diligence and speed. A unit is said to be responsible when the task or mission is achieved which would then contribute to the bigger overall picture of victory. Each unit will be tasked with different objectives and while sometimes, the motives are questionable, the units will only find out the true intentions of certain battle movements required, therefore leading towards success. Very much how business runs. In a company, there are different departments and while by itself, serves very little purpose in the collective function of the company, each department holds significance to the well-being of the business.

The other topic to be discussed upon is the word "trust". In war, the person next to you will be the person you can trust to cover your back and vice-versa. The person next to you is your closest brother in arms. They serve as your motivation and ultimate dependence when in the midst of exchanging bullets with your enemies. They are the ones you talk to when you are feeling depressed, lonely or home-sick. They are the ones who share your secrets and the same ones you can count on to hold your secrets fast in their mouths. In short, the brother in war is your closest family. In business, the same applies. Your co-workers are the ones whom you can believe in when defending the reputation of the department. They are the ones who stand by the same system you each work towards and are the ones whom you compare notes in trust that no one will leak out information in the course of troubleshooting a particular problem or crisis. They are your "work" family ...

... or at least, they should be....

What I have come to learn in my experience in the corporate world is that, while in theory, all the above mentioned are true in an ideal corporate business sense, the actual situation is very much far from it. And when I say far, I am not talking about Kuala Lumpur and Singapore far. I am talking about Kuala Lumpur and Tijuana in the States far. To be clearer for those of you who have not done so well in geography, I am talking about two direct opposite time zones of the world, far. Our watches may show the same time but the world of difference comes in the form of a.m. and p.m.

The word "responsibility" in the real world of business means "covering your own ass". To put it in shrewd context, it is often used as follows:

"I don't know who did this. It's not me," or,
"I'm not responsible for the mistakes," or,
"Why don't you ask the head? I'm just following direct orders."

The difference is that it is no more responsibility as a whole, but a responsibility of personal security. There is no discipline in defending honours. Only the ever lasting game of "pushing the ball away".

As for the word "trust", let me simply give you a phrase to explain my concept in a nutshell. "In war, the person next to you is the person you must trust. In business, the person next to you should never be trusted". Many people will turn on you when pressured. Some will go to the extent of sharing information vowed not to be released to the others. There is no honour in their dictionary and the same goes when referred to dignity. Backstabbing happens as a form of personal gain and all "trust" is therefore lost.

To say the least, I'd like to question, "what then, is the most important principle in business?" My personal answer would be, "be responsible for your own actions, and trust no one but yourself." Unprofessional as it may sound, but I would like to ask, in what sense is the TRUE nature of business a professional one? Ideally, business is professional when human nature does not interfere with the discipline. Sadly, we are all human....

-SD- With friends there is no true business, in business, there are no true friends

ps- Kenny, if you are reading this, I see you as a friend; not a business partner.

A friendship poem....

A Loyal Friend
by George J. Caroll
Saturday, June 04, 2005

It's always nice to have a friend
in which you can confide.
He'll be there when you're feeling down,
comforting you by your side.

You know he'll never betray you,
or cause you any harm.
He's just a friend whose tried and true
and never has a qualm.

So thank the Lord for such a friend,
there are so very few.
Loyality is a forgotten trait,
Not so the friend He blessed with you.

Such motivational words.
In awe and wonderment, I stare at them thinking ... just thinking ...
WOW! I can think of just the perfect words to describe such magnifique....





























Bloody hell.... Screw it-lah....

My Freehand Zero!!!

I decided to give my beloved Freehand Zero a little touch of customizing....



Some of you may know that I have done a bit of silicone recessing for the response system... Already with that, it plays great.



I decided to give it a little weight on the rims....
Get ready for it!!!























Hurrah!!!! I have managed to convert a 65 grams yoyo into a 80 grams!!!!
Now, it spins super long and allows me to play more advanced tricks... =)

Man, I love the Freehand Zero!!! =)

The effort and time ...

So, last Sunday, I attended the Disney Princess on Ice. Yes, I went. Not because I wanted to, but for the sake of obligation. Just a conversation which led up to the day's event.


Some months ago, I was having a chat with Vibrante staff and suddenly, Debbie asked us....

Debbie (to everyone): Eh, who wants to go for Princess on Ice?

Me: Nope. Not my thing but thanks for asking anyway.

Debbie: No, no. When I ask like that, It means that I am paying for all of you. You don't need to pay. Siew May, Yiing Hui, want to go or not?

Siew May: Err ... not sure lah. Maybe go back hometown.

Debbie: Yiing Hui leh?

Yiing Hui: Also dunno lar.

Debbie: Seki, you sure you don't want to go? I'm paying you know?

Me: It's not a matter of who pays. It's not my thing to go. But thanks.

So, I got home feeling all relieved that I was not in a position where I was forced to attend something I didn't enjoy (plus the theme of this show was the dreadful and most horrible colour in my personal taste since the day of my existence ... PINK).

During dinnertime ...

Dad: Hey, keep your 22nd March free, okay?

Me: ...

Sis: Why?

Dad: I bought 4 tickets for all of us to go watch ... Disney Princess on Ice!!!

Me: ...

Mom and Sis: (indistinct chattering over previous experiences on Disney on Ice)

Me: ...

Me: May I be excused? I'm done.

Went up to my room ...

Me: @#$%&*!!!!!!

So, looks like i have to go regardless of whether i escaped or not.

Anyway, the day came and reluctantly, I forced myself to attend for the sake of obligations and a filial son's duty. I decided to go grab myself a little childhood because I thought to myself that if I wasn't going to enjoy the show, the least is that I can still relive a little bit of my memoirs. So, I went out to the foyer to get myself a bag of candy floss.

Me: Hi, can I get a bag of these?

Cashier: Sure. They come packaged with a Jawlipop (a medium sized lollipop)

Me: Oh, cool! (thinks to myself that this is a good deal) How much do I owe you?

Cashier: Three, zero....

Me: I'm sorry?

Cashier: Thirty Ringgit

Me: Thirty bucks....

Cashier: Yes.

Just then another cashier walked in.

Cashier 2: Hi sir.

Me: Uhh... hi... (still shocked over what I heard)

I handed over a fifty bucks note still dumbfounded.

Cashier: Here's a twenty change. Thanks! Come again, ya? (Smiles)

Me: Uhh.... ya.... Sure....

WTH????? 30 bucks for a handful of sugar?




The jawlipop package ... wow ... I feel darn "jawli" about it....
More like into the mouth of JAWS....



The bag of sugar....



Still can't get over the fact that it costed me RM30....


Can You imagine how much more I could get with that ammount of money? Probably 15 bags of the same size or more! I was willing to pay RM5 seeing that it is, afterall, a Disney event, but this is madness! So what if it was an original Disney Merchandise? It's not like I can reuse the plastic bag unless for a trash bag ... It's not like the stick of the jawlipop can shoot darts out or is shaped as a sword or even used as a pen! It's just a stupid stick made of compressed paper!

Disney Princess on Ice, this memory you gave me shall haunt me and take my word ... I will never forget what expensive lesson it has taught me.

The sounds of Symphonic Oscars ...



... WOW....

Last Sunday, midway through Bootcamp 2009, I took my leave to see the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra perform. Bought a mediocre ticket which cost me RM40. And it's not like I went there to buy it on the spot. I actually bought it like almost half a year ago! Yes, they sell off real fast. Not just this show, every show.

It was actually Lois' idea to go and I sort of just tagged along. I have always wanted to see the MPO perform but never really took the effort. So since Lois was going and invited me to join, I might as well take the opportunity.

The show was called Symphonic Oscars and showcases the award-winning tunes of the past Oscars. Some tunes included were from films like Ben Hur, The Godfather, To Kill a Mockingbird and The Magnificent Seven. I was totally blown away....

Watching performances from the idiot box or computer cannot match up to being there live. The sounds were just too magnificent. It was worth any price to pay for such great performances and I think I will be visiting them again very soon.

Just one word ... WOW!

Life as a lecturer ...

So life has taken a turn now and I have decided to do something I like to do and be able to earn a living. I have decided to lecture. It is my 2nd day as a lecturer and I must say I am enjoying the experience. Being able to share knowledge is one thing. That is what we are paid to do. But being able to share experiences is a whole lot more satisfying.

When I was younger, I've always told myself that I'd like to do something with art. Given the circumstances, however, the country does not permit many options, career-wise. So, I thought, "Hey, why not teach about the things I like and enjoy?"

Seems just like yesterday, I was thinking of what I can do with my passion. Today, I'm kind of living it. Isn't it wonderful when things go as how you wished it to be?

I love my job!

My first yo-yo video!



About 15 minutes of recording, 10 minutes of editting, 20 minutes on the Windows Movie Maker, and there you have it ... my very first yo-yo video.

And to think that I spent all those time for a two minute plus production.... =_='''

Funny isn't it? ... or is it not?

Just the other day, I was faced with many questions in my mind ... work, family, BB, friends, interests, etc. It's kind of scary to look at each and every one of those things and thinking what my life goals are. It is not because I do not have answers to each, instead, it is because I have answers which freaked me out! Let's go through it....

Work

I'm currently a part-time Marketing Executive for a music school and at the same time, a part-time lecturer in an art college teaching history of art. My final destination is to be a full-time lecturer in the current art college I am in. Hopefully, once I am settled in, I can utilize my resources and prepare a proposal for a thesis I would like to have published to either earn a Masters of Fine Arts or a PhD if I can manage to push it through. Pretty much an academician at the end, not minding a wage that could sustain me and my interests. I'm not after luxury as how the common world would want or at least dream of it. I prefer to live simple by common standards and take life by the very raw essence of spur, be it right or wrong. Of course, if it is wrong, there must be something to learn from it and not to force and insist in what seems to be an unreasonable justification of pride.

Family

I am a grandson, son, brother, nephew and cousin. I have many ties to fulfill in my filial duties but I am not one who takes it to the next level. I am most loyal only to my grandmother, immediate family members and the second aunt from my mother's side whom we (my sis and I) have come to call her "aunty-mother" since young. A godmother if you will. I will acknowledge the rest if they are around, but I do not make it an effort to visit them on a regular basis; well then again, who does? My principle is simple: Why should I do it, if they don't? Cold as I may sound, I am not one who does not recognize a good deed. I speak of appreciation with high regards because I know what it is like to be unappreciated.

BB

I am an officer who has worked my way up since the start of the company, from recruit, to Primer and currently, a Warrant Officer. I take charge of the company ensemble, and teach certain badge classes. Ranks do not matter much to me as I see it only as a tool for discipline only when it is needed to be enforced. Perhaps being too friendly in approach towards members have earned me the title as an easy-going officer who cares nothing for discipline. No, I do take discipline very seriously. I play hard, but I also expect and demand hard. I have low tolerance for inefficiency when it comes to getting things done and get very pissed off when people take me lightly. If members get pissed off with me so easily, it is not my loss. Chances are, they will meet with others far worse than me. If you can't take me, you will most likely not survive in the corporate world. I'm not cocky, I'm stating facts.

Friends

I have many friends, but there are but a handful who are actually close to me and know me for who I am. I recently did a test on my personality and had a professional interpret my test results. He said (and I quote), "You like to make friends although you have very little need for them." Am I really that independent? Or am I just prone to pissing people off that even if they end up avoiding me, I can still find a way to live on? How long can I live alone?

Interests

Quite simply, visual arts, music, military administration and yo-yo. Really, there's not much I can tell about each.



I guess what I am really afraid of is that I am too familiar with what I want and what I need. So much so that I do not anticipate surprises. Everything has already "fall into place", if you may. How can it be so? I want to sometimes do something radical and unlike me, although not many people know my true self. Well, to rephrase, I'd like to surprise myself once in awhile. I wonder if that is possible? How can I surprise myself with something I am anticipating? Hmmm....

An update so late... =_='''

Well, as the title says... it is so late. I couldn't cover anything which happened during the Chinese New Year holidays. Well, there were too many things to do and note down anyways. So, here's just a short update for my blog just so anyone is wondering whether I'm still alive. Yes, I am! But then again, who cares? =p

One particularly interesting thing did happen to me though. Pei Ann sent me a CD! Thanks! Yes, as you have said, Erik Friedlander is such amazing and innovative cellist! Never thought it would be so "different" and away from mainstream. His unique way of playing a song gives excitement in some sort of darkness! Sooooo my taste.... =) Thanks again, Pei Ann! By the way, I sent you an e-mail about receiving this CD. Did you miss it?

So ends the update. I don't even have time to draw the few lines for a blob.... Can you imagine how hectic my life is starting to get? And even when I have time, I'd rather hit the sack to recuperate.

Happy Chinese New Year, people! =)

About mua....

I stumbled upon this in Ally's and Rutti's blog. You read and be the judge.

Your view on yourself:

Other people find you very interesting, but you are really hiding your true self. Your friends love you because you are a good listener. They'll probably still love you if you learn to be yourself with them.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

The seriousness of your love:

Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.

Your views on education

Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:

You have many goals and want to achieve as much as you can. The jobs you enjoy are those that let you burn off your considerable excess energy.

How do you view success:

Success in your career is not the most important thing in life. You are content with what you have and think that being with someone you love is more than spending all of your precious time just working.

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.

Who is your true self:

You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.

I can't help but to think that the dating part is inaccurate. LOL. But then again, so do many of us who did this test.
