花蝴蝶

《花蝴蝶》27/3隆重发行！！！

I am always able to amuse people in my school, my teachers and other students, with my grades. They usually say, "She's good. We should give her the whole's class essay to read through before we hand in to Ms Mckinnon.", "Why does Wei Syn always get full marks on the vocab quiz?", A: "She's smart," B:"Did you just know that today?", etc. Two days ago, two students even bet on what score I would get on a celebration presentation.

There are a few friends of mine were on standby mode, waiting for me to do something wrong. Phil, would flash a big grin at me whenever I got an answer wrong. Raff, said beating my score is important because I'm the best student in World Civilizations class. Joseph. would always ask me what my score was whenever an assignment was given back. Hain, would always say "I hate you" to me whenever she looks at my score.

Why would I work so hard to get high scores, to be a top student? Firstly, when I started school at SSIS, I didn't know the standard here. I wasn't intending to be a top student. I just worked the way that I could. Surprisingly, I was higher than average. People call me smart here, but people in Malaysia know better. If I was really intelligent, I would be top student when I was in Chong Hwa. But I wasn't. So, it was actually the standard of different schools made me seem to be a smart person.

Secondly, it was because of my horror of age (sound like Bella? Haha). I'm sixteen now and the people in my grade are either fourteen or fifteen, so I'm the oldest in my grade. I feel like I have 留级 and if I wasn't a top student, wouldn't be my knowledge is more narrow? Ugh...I can't even accept that..

So what does my good grades bring to me? Firstly, I impressed a lot of people. Honestly, (and I can't doubt it) I feel really GOOD when I know I impressed someone. Should I feel bad about that? Haha. However, what should I do when the one person that I really want to impress doesn't seem to feel impressed? >.<>

Finally, pride. This top student "thingy" is pushing up my pride. If I get a grade that is below my average score, I feel challenged. I don't want to lose. So I work harder, to raise my grades, back to my usual score. Good or bad habit? Haha. I'm sure that I have benefits from this weird habit though. ^^

Okay..last thing to say. I'm going back to Malaysia before July! So the dates are 30/4 to 4/5 (five days) and 3/7 to 18/7 (16 days). Anyone care to plan my trip back? Zmin, Chyn, Jie? Haha. Just kidding. Love you all~ muakz....remember to receive my flying kiss~ ^^

SHOOT >.<

Lots to say today!!! arrgghhh... >.< Calm down.... I don't know what I few now. It's so complicated. Could one feel happy, excited, worried and sad at the same time?

ok. First thing to say is Eclipse is scheduled to come out at June 20, ,2010. Isn't it great? Haha. I also found New Moon's official logo from a Twilight fan blog, thanks to Zmin. ^^

Secondly is did you guys realize I added some new gadgets to my blog? Haha. A New Moon movie countdown, which is the second countdown in my blog AND a mp3 player. Hurray! Remember to listen to the songs that I'm currently listening to. ^^ The third thing I want to say is the cause of my complicated feelings. >.< BIG NEWS: Leehom is coming to Malaysia for his Music-Man concert!!! Finally coming. Details below:

Date : 2nd May 2009
Venue : Bukit Jalil National Stadium (Outdoor)

So what's the conflict here? I'm here in Vietnam, and the concert's in Malaysia. Know what guys? The weekend of the concert, I happen to have a holiday from 3o April to 4 May, five whole solid days!!! What should I do? >.< The coincidence? Is this a gift? Could I go? Should I go?

Jie, decide for me.

Say. Bad things.

favorite scene in Twilight

The Cullens!!!

I LOVE this picture!!

A quote of Edward, "Sometimes I have problems with my temper, Bella". I do too. Studying in an international school, people come from different places and cultures, so we do not really know each other. Of course, there would be some misunderstandings, but those made me angry.

The first one..however, is not really about misunderstandings. I was learning about religions in my World Civilizations class and I was assigned to research about Islam with my group. There was a guy, he was a stereotype. He said, "Once Islam, always Islam." What he really meant was about the terrorist 911 thing. That made me angry. It was insulting to me. Ok, I'm not a Muslim, but I come from an Islamic country, so his comment was like insulting me! Other than that, he was very rude at the same time. If the religion that he insulted was another religion, it was rude too. SO RUDE AND STEREOTYPE. So, I did something that I normally don't do. I told my WCiv teacher that he was being very rude. I was a tell-tale-tit at that moment. I didn't want to do that, but I was really angry.

The second one was...about 光良．What about him? So..the grade 9 Chinese class is going to perform 童话. I told my friend that 光良 is Malaysian. Guess what my friend (let's call him P) replied to me? "No, he's taiwanese." I swear, I was in rage. Then, just to add some more oil to the fire（火上加油）, the friend who was sitting beside me(call him J), who is a taiwanese, said that 光良 is taiwanese too. SHUT UP!! Where did they get the information that 光良 is taiwanese?! That is a LIE. GOD! J then said, "If you trace the blood, he's taiwanese." Freaking no! If I trace the blood, 光良 would be from CHINA!!! >.<

Thirdly..is WCiv class again. This time, I was learning about forms of government. We were learning 3 forms, democratic(民主），republic(共和国) and authoritarianism(独裁主义). The class was divided into these three groups to research for information. Then, one person from each group were to share the information. This is where the part I dislike. The girl from the authoritatianism was saying examples of countries, and she said, "China, Singapore, North Korea, Taiwan and Malaysia." NO!!!!! That was SO stupid. Taiwan's new president was just elected last year and Malaysians get to vote when we are 21. WRONG information from the INTERNET. Whoever wrote that is...hmph. I don't like it at all. >.<>.<

p/s: pictures that I post are sometimes random. They have nothing to do with the post. I just want to share them.

Role Playing 角色扮演

I know this picture looks kind of weird, but it reminds me of when Bella was pregnant >.<

Freaking, scariest part in Twilight movie >.<

Today in Public Speaking class, we were role playing. We prepared this since last Thursday and honestly, 其实我很担心，因为其实我不喜欢我的搭档。>.< 他是越南人，而且是我目前听过讲英文越南腔最重的一个人。所以，他说话的时候，基本上我不太懂他在说什么。在那一个小时的准备，我们没什么进展。我是要扮演一个妈妈，而他是我女儿的男朋友。Fortunately, the role playing today went well and I was relieved. ^^ Here is the script: (mostly written by me but there are some parts written by him, so don't feel awkward when you find mistakes >.<)

(Doorbell rings, Mother goes open the door.)

Mother: Good evening. May I help you?

Bf: Good evening, Mrs. Tan. I’m Steve, Alice’s boyfriend. Is Alice in?

Mother: (surprised) Alice is upstairs changing her clothes. Come in and have a seat.

Bf: Thank you, madame.

(Walk towards living room and sit down facing each other.)

Mother: So…Steve. I heard a lot about you from Alice. Now, I finally have a chance to meet you. Do you mind if I ask you some questions while you are waiting for Alice? I wanna know more about you.

Bf: Sure, sure. You can ask me anything, Mrs. Tan.

Mother: I was hoping that you would say that. Steve, how old are you?

Bf: I’m 18, same age as Alice.

Mother: (nodding) Do you plan to go to any university, Steve?

Bf: Nah…universities are for nerds. I’m not a nerd and I don’t want to be one either.

Mother: (raise an eyebrow) Really? Then what do you intend to do?

Bf: Well, I’ll continue my family’s business, of course!

Mother: Family’s business? What is your family’s business?

Bf: I’m glad that you asked that. My dad sells noodles! Our noodle stall is just across the street from the school and our noodles are extremely de~licious(emphasize)! A lot of students go to our noodle stall to eat after school. You should come and try, Mrs. Tan. Alice loves the noodles too, I’m sure you’ll love them.

Mother: (awkward) Ha ha, sure. I’ll go when I’m free. Steve, I’m curious about one thing, though, why do you think that Alice fell in love with you?

Bf: I guess it’s because I just look so hot and sexy. (grins) I know everyone just loves me.

Mother: You are very confident with your looks. So what do you like about my daughter, Steve? I know that Alice is the most beautiful lady in the world, but I’m sure that there is something else about Alice that made you feel attracted to her.

Bf: Of course! You are right, Mrs. Tan. Alice is absolutely hot and sexy, which the same like me! She’s hot and sexy and I’m hot and sexy too! The best thing about being with Alice is I feel sooo good when I’m with her. People stare at us with admiration and I’m just so fond of it!

Mother: (frowning) You like my daughter because she’s hot and sexy? What about her personality, Steve? Doesn’t one’s personality should be more important than looks?

Bf: Personality? Honestly, I don’t care so much about personality. As long as Alice stays hot and sexy, I will be her boyfriend.

Mother: (wide eyes) Gosh! Steve, tell me, do you ever want to have sex with my daughter?

Bf: Hell, yes! She’s so hot and sexy; of course I want to have sex with her! Who doesn’t?

Mother: (shaking head) I know that it’s rude to say this to you, Steve, but I have to say this to you. Honestly, Steve, I think that you are not suitable for my daughter. Here, take this money, Steve, and stay away from my daughter forever. I hope you understand what I want.

Bf: Are you serious? All I have to do to take this money is leave Alice alone? Of course I understand what you meant, Mrs. Tan! But this is so rude that I have to break up with her on Valentine’s Day, you know. (Counting money) Well, hey, what the hell is that 250USD. That’s a lot you know. Sure, I’ll do it! Thanks you for the money, Mrs. Tan, I can go downtown and buy new clothes. Cool! It’s my pleasure to meet you today, Mrs. Tan! Goodbye!

Mother: Good Bye, (slam the door) and don’t ever come back again to bother me!

Finale

So..what do you think? Haha

p/s: I wrote some parts of this post in Chinese, because just in case... >.<

Buy. Money.

Renesmee and ...? Guess who? ^^ Answer is below...(warning:spoiler!)

OMG! Know the answer now?

Emotions

When I searched Edward's Crooked Smile, this picture came out most,
although it's not a favorite of mine.

This one looks crooked, a little. Ha!

I kinda like this one, although...it's not really crooked.

This post is inspired by the Twilight Saga. Usually when I am reading a book, if I come over a word that I don't understand (which occurs VERY frequently >.<), I just let it go, never wanting to find what the word means. However, the incredible author, Stephenie Meyer, used a tremendous amount of emotions in her books. The emotions were quite important, because they made me to not understand what Edward and Bella were thinking. It made me frustrated, so I decided to ask the teacher who doesn't speak, the dictionary. Extraordinarily, reading the dictionary was actually FUN while I looked up for the words. I finally get to understand Edward and Bella! Hurray!

So..here comes the LONG list:

-A big grin on his face told us that he had won the match.

6.groan

-to utter a deep, mournful sound expressive of pain or grief.
-"She's left me," he said with a groan.

7. scoff
-嘲笑
-to speak derisively; mock; jeer
-He scoffed at her fears.

8. crooked smile
There is no way that any dictionaries will be me a definition of this, so I posted three picture about this smile. Love the pictures? Haha

9. moan
-呻吟声;呜咽声
-a prolonged, low, inarticulate sound uttered from or as if from physical or mental suffering.
-Each time she tried to move her broken leg she let out a moan

10. wince

11. pout
-噘嘴
-to push the lips or the lower lip forward, especially in temper of displeasure

12. flinch

Finale. Haha. Well, there are words in the list that I do know, but I just want to post it up here so that everyone can thoroughly understand the words. If this post looks like a lecture, sorry! Haha.

In my instrumental music class, I'm learning the Russian Sailors Dance (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJgZ-GiPlvM) and Hungarian Dance No. 5 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3X9LvC9WkkQ). Great songs! Listen to them if you are free.

Happy Belated Valentines! 情人节快乐！

Addicted to Twilight Saga

Robert Pattinson : True Love Never Dies

Henry Cavill

Hayden Christensen

Orlando Bloom

Gerard Way

Wow! I abandoned my blog for one month! Sorry~ >.< I didn't mean to. Actually, I have loads to write, but I always get lazy, so...you know what happens, haha.

I had a great time in Malaysia during Chinese New Year. ^^ The best time is of course spending time with people that you care for. One of the best thing that I brought back from Malaysia is the Twilight Saga! Hurray for me~ After craving for two months, I finally have the whole Twilight Saga - Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. A trillion thanks to Huh Gugu, who gave the first three books as a present to me and my parents who paid for Breaking Dawn. ^^ Thank you, again, for giving me the opportunity to read Twilight at the same time with Zhao Min, which is very fun. ^^ To those who are reading or planning to read Twilight, read Twilight and Midnight Sun together - it will be FUN!

I also bought (well, paid by parents actually) a book called Robert Pattinson : True Love Never Dies. I think the most interesting thing that I read in the book was the actors the were considered playing as Edward Cullen. Cool eh? Haha. So I'm going to post the names and pictures of the actors and maybe some brief description about them. Here goes~

1. Henry Cavill
-Stephenie Meyer's first choice for the role of Edward Cullen
-He lost the role because when Twilight was being produced, he was already 25, which is too old to play a 17-year-old
-Some interesting facts about HC:

• Auditioned for Batman in Batman Begins but lost out to Christian Bale
• Considered to play Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (what a coincidence!)
• Auditoned for the role of Superman in Superman Returns but lost the role
  

• Another choice as James Bond in Casino Royale but looks too young so Daniel Craig got the role

2.Hayden Christensen
-fan suggestion
-Leading actor in the movie Jumper, as David Rice

3.Orlando Bloom
-fan suggestion
-Ok, I don't think that Orlando Bloom can play as Edward Cullen, it just doesn't make any sense to me!!!!
-Everyone knows him, Will Turner in Pirates of the Carribbean or Legolas in Lord of the Rings! Don't tell me you don't know him!

4. Gerard Way
-Ok, this is ridiculous! NO WAY for this guy to be Edward Cullen! Insanity! Honestly, I would prefer Orlando Bloom to this guy. God!
-I chose a better looking picture of him to post here, because I don't want his other pictures here. Go google him if you want to see how he really looks like.

I'm not trying to attack anyone here, I'm just writing my opinions about who would be Edward Cullen best, so don't kill me or anything, please!

During reading Robert Pattinson : True Love Never Dies, I realized that I prefer Edward Cullen(in the movie) to Rob! Why? Hehe, the first and outmost important reason is the hair! Edward's hair looks good, however Rob's hair is...well, I just don't like it, sorry! From the book, I also read that Rob has already signed up for New Moon and Eclipse. Hurray for the news! New Moon is scheduled for November 20th this year, however I doubt they will finish it >.< And we have eclipse! Hurray again! I would love to watch the scene where Edward proposed to Bella! God!

What about Breaking Dawn though? (worried..) It's one of favorites, I would love to watch a movie of Breaking Dawn, although I think to film Breaking Dawn seems like impossible to me due to Renesmee. Haizh, let's just cross our fingers together and wish. My recent post are mostly about Twilight because now I'm really addicted to it! And..I believe about two more posts will be about Twilight too...haha. ^^

Zhao Min, I just realized that Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince is going to be released on July 17th, and guess what, I leave Malaysia at July 18th! You know, we should go watch the movie together, since we didn't get to watch Order of the Phoenix together last time, ok?
