How good or important a scanner is?
When you are very tired...
When you have no enough time...
But when you still have alot of things to copy,
a scanner is very useful=)
Let's scan everything!!!
And sleep...zZzZzZ

My shoulder is aching....
Walao, do you know how far is the distance between
Sport Complex and Studio 8???
Every time i have to rest at Salvo's notice board there,
if not, i think my shoulder will be dislocated=(
And it also give me a chance to see my cool picture there, hehe^^
I heard a girl says:"wah, she so strong"
when i was carrying drum back to Studio.
So proud of myself, woohoo~~

Happy Birthday to Chia Wei!
Salvo 09's VZVP,
Very Zai Vice President=0
I managed to see our booth today!
Watched them rehearse at sport complex also.
Had dinner at Carl's Junior with Salvo just now.
Yeah Yeah Yeah~~~
It seems to be a long time since i had dinner with them,
crap with them, watch they drum...
Ya, so conclusion is,
Karen is very happy today=)

I'm not feeling feel.
I thought i will faint
when i was having training at Jurong Island.

My heart is not feeling well.
Tear almost drops when you ask me whether am i performing?
Quite disaappointed that i cannot manage to see you guys perform.
Not even the rehearsal.
But it's still good to meet you all and have fun.
I miss the hug hug and poke poke.

I wanted to make salad today for tomorrow's lunch,
failed.
I wanted to do revision for thursday's test,
failed too.
I had promised i myself to sleep before 11pm everyday,
failed like shit!

Finally it's friday,
can rest well.
No need to wake up a 5am...
Tomorrow go back to Malaysia,
to take something i left over there.
Then still have to write the
“廿四节令鼓”nicely.
I'm so irritated by my ugly calligraphy and chinese words=(
Damn!!!
Hope i can write better,
as good as last time.

Next week is a hectic week for me too.
Got a Process Flow Diagram test on thursday,
haven done any revision yet.
So, i better don't attend Salvo training next week,
But if i am not going to Salvo,
friday's performance how?
Well, even if i go for training,
i will still may not get to perform also...
Because the timing may not suit.
Beside that, next friday is whole day practical.
From 8am till 11:30am, then lunch time.
Then from 12:30pm till 3:00pm.
The weather is super hot, the sunlight is too bright!
My friend almost fainted today=(
So i am thinking whether i am physically able to take part in the performance for Wheelbarrow anot.
Haiz, don't care first,
got headache since the CPTC started.
I think it's because i don't have enough rest=(

Ruohan and Veronica...
please take care of yourselves.
Like what Ruohan said,
Salvo peoples seem to be very unlucky and keep getting injured recently.
Hope things are getting better soon=)
I miss Salvo>.<

Chemical Process Training Centre,
a training centre which is located at Jurong Island.
The journey is about 1 hour from Tampines interchange.
Haiz, sibei sianzzzz....
Everyday have to wake up at 6am.
If i want to have enough sleep,
which is 8 hours of sleeping time,
i need to sleep before 10pm latest....

And yesterday was my first time,
i went in studio 4,
but didn't drum.
Not even touch the drum lo, haiz...
But anyway, the regatta is coming soon,
Jia You for all the performers.
And Jia You for other performances also^^

而是鼓就立在我面前 我却不可以敲打鼓

I was involved in a car accident yesterday.

Then i told my mummy who is still in Thailand now.
She scolded me like what i had expected,
Mummy: The car got sensor one ma, you didn't hear the alarm mie? Why still go and bang the pole?
Karen: No la, front where got sensor...and i didn't bang a pole lo...it's a tree.
Mummy: ......How you drive one? Front also can bang?
Karen: Because.....

the coconut tree is hewed and left this part and it's hidden in the grasses. So i can't see.


Then the number plate broke and dropped.


This is the residual plate...

And she find that i always bang her car,
so i am banned from driving her car for a period of time, i think?
But i counted already,
only 3 times lo...
And she never asked me whether i got injured anot=(
Well, luckily i'm not.
However, i was shocked...

Oh my god, what do you think this is?
Fried banana?
I thought it's fried "ku ku bird" at the first sight, LOLX
So sorry for the dirty thought=p
Ok, anyway, this is fried fish roe.
It tastes nice, yummy=)

Wow, just came back from the 大戏 there,
and today not much sales leh, dunno why=(
So, we were playing with a little boy who came with his parents.
After that, another group of customers came,
they bring a little girl too.
Therefore, we played together^^
The little boy was damn funny,
he went to the temple there,
and kept asking me to pray.
As in, squat down and do the Zen gesture.
But anyway, the correct way should be kneel down.
Then the little girl dun wan to get down since i carry her in my arm,
my right arm is abit aching now=p
And when it's time for us to go back,
the two little kids dun let us go, lolx...
We kept bringing them back to their parent
and ran when we got chance.
This is how we got back home, hahaha
So, here is some pictures we took with the kids:

little boy, ah girl, little girl and me


He is so cute^^

Well, single mother is not easy to be...
I think i should reconsider about the idea of having the first kid at age 25.
Taking care of kid is so tired=s
If i dun have another person to help and support me,
i think i will breakdown one day.

Oh, anyway, i feel sick now=(

What did Karen do during the weekends?
Let's see...


This is a temple called 四位王府.
There is a 歌仔戏 held for 7 days in April every year.


So, that is the stage and yesterday got a dinner.
The stage is on the right of the temple.


This stall is on the left of the temple.
Yup, my mummy sells drinks there,
and i become the coffee-sao, lolx!
But i didn't help much,
most of the time i sat on chair only.


Then this stall is on the right of the stage!
If you can't read the chinese word properly,
it's written 丹绒拿督国中华文学会...
Does it sounds familiar?
Yes, it's my previous CCA, Chinese Society, 华会.
We hold the stall for the full 7 days,
and the money we earn will become our society's funds.
And we use it to organise other events.

Hmmm....I was feeling old when i went to the stall.
They dunno me and so do I.
Seeing other people do the thing that you did before and you don't do that anymore will give you the urge to do it yourself.
I really feel like asking them to let me cut the Mua-Ji.
I miss the feeling of cutting Mua-Ji~~

And also, i feel happy to see the 华会 i loved keep going on.
It shows that, the effort of all previous batch of seniors put in is worth.
Ya, so all the best to you guys^^

Then it makes me think of the differences between Salvo and 华会 at my time.
Firstly, the system.
We met and organised event once a month on average.
After the event, will have a briefing for it.
We pointed out the mistakes we did,
and discussed the solutions to avoid it to happen again.

For 华会, the discipline is only needed during the meeting.
Most of the time, we need responsibility.
Salvo, as a 24 Festival Drum drum troop.
We train for our drum skill, score, everthings.
Obviously discipline is much more needed.

Secondly, the briefing.
In 华会, we discussed our event, we got our things done, then we went home.
If problem occurs, we will only discuss about the issue itself.
In Salvo, we also get our things done.
But we always have heart to heart talk.
And because of it,
weep, which never happened in 华会,
is a common occurence in Salvo.

Salvo is made up of many caring peoples,
they are always there for you with the forgiveness spreading around.
Everytime make me cry until like mad,
but that's not a bad thing=)

A good thing about 华会 is that,
they had been established for more than 10 years.
At my time, it was the 7th year.
I hope Salvo can be like that too, keep going on.

What a nice April Fool i had today.
Thought i will be late so took cab to school,
it costed me $5.
$5 hor~~
Met clement when i reached,
then heard our Mr. President said:
"Today no PT, you dunno mie?"
Okay fine~~
Today then i know Clement is more clever than me,
i am so stupid, i totally believe what you said ok?
Idiot Marc.\/.
But never mind, we had fun~~LOLX
Then when i was waiting for my relative at the bus stop,
a soccer ball fell down from the sky!!
Actually it was from the football field behind the bus stop.
The ball hit the roof then rebounced to the floor.
Almost hit me you know!?
WooHoo~~Happy April Fool again^^

I have been misunderstood by peoples around me
since i was in secondary school,
no matter you are my friends or my family.
It's ok if it's a small matter,
it's not ok if it's related to some important things or
one's integrity.
The most common one is:
Karen, are you angry?
No, Karen is not angry!
Can't i have some other feelings rather than angry?
They say i am fierce when i speak normally,
they say i am scary when i speak softly.
What the!?
I think i need a mask.
Although i hate it=(
