2017 marks my fifth year in the teaching world. Indeed, so many things had happened, be it stressful, happy, relaxed, anxious, disappointing or sad. I can no longer count the total number of students I have met, nor even recall the teaching methods that I have came across and applied, alongside the news and...
It was April 2013, I was new. In fact, everything was new. I was blown into the wind of change. Two veteran teachers decided to call it a day after many years of hard work serving the young school. I was then told to take over some of their classes. One of them was a Form 2 class - the better one (in...
Hiatus by hiatus in the blogging world is somehow, choking. It reminds you of how much connected you are to your work and your own self - your really true self, especially when you come to the stage where you have to work the stamina out of yourself to survive - to earn a living. Such is your workaholic...
While I myself am in that appropriate feeling, allow me to write that graduation message to the third batch of Form 5 I am teaching this year. In 2015, something remarkable happened in the music industry. As soon as Furious 7 kicked off the silverscreens worldwide, the entire globe was appalled in awe...
#SPM2014 Result Day was a day of mixed emotion. From a teacher's point of view, not only you are looking forward to your graduated padawans, you are also drooling for their results to determine how successful you were in preparing them. In other words, Form 5 teachers are as if taking a time machine back to...
My apologies of putting this up slow. All pictures were taken using Samsung Galaxy Note 3. How's life a week after SPM ends? Surely you do enjoy the tremendous surge of freedom as soon as you put that school uniform into that laundry bag for the last time, isn't it? Some of you have begin to discover...
It has been a tough semester for me, and eventually work is still ongoing. Now that work is dominating my life, of course blogging will more dormant to me. However, it will not die out. Nevertheless, these are some photos which I have taken from my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 throughout the latter part of 2014.
It was a busy weekend last week. As I returned home being worn out in mental fatigue, words and thoughts mentally built up randomly in my mind like bubbles emerging up in boiling, hot water. Next came these lines, that would eventually formed a poem. It surfaced as soon as I ponder on my working life,...
The long writer's block is cleared away once again. Altough there are many matters for me to keep up, the sense of liberation never fails to occupy me alive. And more importantly, keeping the catharsis alive. In the meantime, while moving into my gap of liberation, came a Facebook status that caught my...
Having the revival of this blog, I have decided to publish something about the evolution of smartphones since last year (2013). At that moment, my iPhone4 that served me humbly for three years began to disappoint me due to the insensitive home button, therefore I decided to retire it for good. Or is it? It...
2012.2013.2014. Alas. It is now 2014. Walking through a series of life's roller-coaster can be adventurous, but moving through them is like driving to territories unknown. Tidal waves can be rowdy, the roads can be bumpy, but somehow this is life. It has been almost 22 months after I put forth...
This week could be paving a way on my next chapter of life. I've been in and out of many of these mini stories in my life. Sometimes, you tend to stop and stare at what you'd been through, reminiscing the time you went through before. At the same time, you would also ponder at your future, wondering how...
Terminal Tiga was the novel that I learned and studied in Form Four. It tells the story of a guy who is pursuing his studies in Akademi Seni Kebangsaan (ASK) and his journey from Sabah. The title of the novel was given in parallel with the main character's story about his hardships in his hometown and Kota...
Part 2 comes in, and what I wanted to say, this is about the start of something new - You could see some insights on what it's like to enter the adult life, the moment when you begin to move out from your school mentality. I could still remember how artists like Justin Timberlake, Evanescence, Linkin Park...
I would say that it is 5 months ago since I updated this old page. And most probably this would be the most inactive times I'm going to update this blog. Sooner or later, days of busyness arrive and I may not have much of the luxury of time to do such a thing. I want a simple life, with sufficient food and...
As 2011 fades away, I would like to say, I do enjoy every of the great moments in this year. Though it started up badly for me, this year did offer me many great fellowships, from Chinese New Year open houses, to the most recent hometown friendship gatherings. Anyway, these are some highlights of...
First of all, Merry Christmas to everyone right here. And I'm totally sorry for the late updates once again. And the week before Christmas was indeed an interesting one - I'd been doing what the casual photographers are doing - Photoshooting! Since I only had a few friends back in Tawau, it would be wise...
Recently I just done playing this awesome piece of PC entertainment. And despite many critics, including myself, had condemned the developers for their decision to maintain their Modern Warfare 2 graphics and systems, I would like to say that the installation of third story is great, especially the part...
My Instagram Finally, once again, I had returned to Tawau. It's been a while since I posted something right here. And during these days, I felt that the 5th semester was really fast. As I entered my room in my house, I felt that it's been just a week after me and my friends went for the trip to Mataking.
Well, in August 2010, I'd purchased the Sony NEX-5, a brand new mirrorless interchangeable lens camera concept for the brand at that time. What made the NEX series unique was it had a full scale DSLR sensor being fitted in such a small camera. Hence, it caught my attention and surprisingly, it performs...
