AGM Equatorial Hotel -- Exxon Mobil

Equatorial Hotel.

I guessed I spell it correctly this time. I once called it EQUILATERAL HOTEL and they bursted into laughter. It's still only equilateral hotel. If i said equilateral triangle hotel, they might be dead men now. Laugh till death.

This event was actually 1 month ago event but that time I was so busy until I did not even have a litle time to be spent on this. Well , I will post about it now.


Yeah. This was actually an EYE Programme(Exxonmobil young Entrepreneur) opening ceremony. This programme is targetted at Form 4 students in secondary schools and so proud to say SMK TAMAN CONNAUGHT has been chosen to be 1 of the 6 schools!


Through this programme, students will get to know more on how to set up a company, operate the company for profit, and to liquidate it at the end of the programme. In short, it is a benifitial programme and we are now learning how to run business to get maximum profit and at the same time not neglecting other important issues like safety.


So we attended the opening ceremony and this was my first time for me.

Thanks to Eric , for lending me his blazer . As one of the BOD members, of course we need to wear neatly so that our company's image wouldn't got affected.

Vincent did not know how to lie one leg onto the other and started crappin beside me: How you guys did it? Teach ME! xD

We saw reporters. We saw Advisors. We saw many students from different schools like Sains Alam Shah , Mutiara and Darul Ehsan. Then I tried to get to know what's their activities so far. While I approached a Malay girl, she seemed so panick when I shot question to her in English and she just smiled as if I am from Mars and speaking words which she never ever heard before.

Sin Ting and me. I wonder, since when she bespectacled??? Weirdo..

The bulletin boards placed outside shown the result last year . Pn Heng and Cik Azlina the shorter teacher with a broading smile pasted on their lips while they saw this..

Can you see it! It's our school achievement last year. They got the 3rd place but this year we aiming for the first since the 1st and 2nd school last year no longer take part in this programme.


The opening ceremony started. We sat there, doing nothing except for our eyes gazing around to see how other schools' students looked like. I had to sit with 5 other CEOs from different schools so I could only see my schoolmates having fun from the front sit. It's quite a distance from them. :(


After the lengthy speech with motivition and aspiration, we CEOs got up to the stage to receive guide books which provide useful information about what should we do to run, to operate a company. Then we took oath that we would be jujur, amanah and blablkabla.....


When I got up to the stage, all Connaughtians stood up and clapped and this showed our unity , prepare to blow down every other school with our strong passion and commitment in it!

We had scrumptious lunch in hotel. Never did I get so satisfied with food there! All of us were like barbarians from Connaught jungle and take as much food as we could. Whao! Delicious! I could still remember how good the Cheese and Choco cake tasted! and the Fried Ice-cream! Awesome! Just that I forgot to take photos on the food. Otherwise, a mouthful of saliva will drip from your lips and flooded your house!!! (exaggerating.. )


While I was enjoying my meal with friends, a Chinese reporter from The Sun approached me and wanted to interview me but I couldn't talk with food in my mouth. He then said he will come to me later but then it's just an friggin empty promise. Hmm....The Sun reporter..

We got back to the bus after our lunch and felt so reluctant to go back. I wanted to pack all the food home though I was already very very full .... Cheese cake.. muahahaaha..

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Next day, I saw myself and the rest of the CEOs in the newspaper. Too Bad, half of my face was blocked! Aww...

Bad News

Arh... Eventually the exam has ended. This flow of exams really tortured me a lot . Pimples of different sizes popped out from nowhere. ==

Yeah! I can now sleep on my cozy bed again! You know, I used to sleep in the living room during the exam weeks. You know what? I burnt the midnight oil until 3 am everyday to do preparation for every paper. Worse still, I didn't even sleep one day before the Bio and Account Test! And it resulted in the forming of my black eye sacs underneath my brownish eyes. = Panda Eyes!

Ok.. This can be considered as a good news since the exam had marked a fullstop. Now come the bad news.
Below is my conversation with Puan Tan, my account teacher, 2 days after the exam.

Chin Yung! How? HOw?
Yeah teacher. I am too sad upon hearing the freaking news.
But you are my potential A student! You got 88% in your examination! You did very well!
But I mustn't drop my Chinese. If only I could drop Bio, I will do so. I prefer account to Bio.

Perhaps, you are still blur and do not know what had happened. The Education Ministry had decided to limit the subject taken by students to only TEN starting from next year 2010! TEN!

How could it be? At least 12 right? Who are they to limit ? Why we couldn't even have the right to choose what subjects we want to take? It's too much!

I was paralysed by the shock of reading the news regarding this matter. Recently, there are a lot of news posting that some excellent students are still appealing scholarship so they can further their study to other countries. But all of them are either Chinese and Idians who got 10A1, 11A1,12A1 or even up to 16As! You would never find even one Malay is trying to appeal to overseas.

Why ? Because Malay do not need to.
Why ? Even a dumb knows the reason.

The ministry then decided to limit the subjects to 10 so that this matter can be solved easily. So that next year when Malays and Chinese and Indians get the same remarkable result, 10A1, the concerned department can easily reward the Malay by granting them scholarship! Then you Chinese and Idians will just zip your mouth up without further arguments! You all can't say anything since my Malay get the same good result as you!

Damn it! Well, it's just my hypothesis, my prediction. Let's see whether it's true after few years.

XXXXXX

Sadly I brought all my books out from my cupboard. A mountain of revision books . I don't think i could complete all the exercises. I took out all the Account and Basic Economic notes and books, then put them into 2 different plastic bags and prepare to say bye to them. I felt really unhappy. Why don't the goverment announce the news earlier?

I had wasted a sum of money to buy all the Acc and EA books, begged my sister to get the notes for me, walked to Leisure Mall from school every Thursday to take bus to Martin Tuition Centre, remained in school after schoolbreak for Acc lesson and now, I had to throw all my books and notes to the rubbish dump. Why couldn't the Ministry limit the number of subjects in SPM starting from 2011?

*Sigh* Suffering a heartbreak right now. Feel reluctant to throw you but I have to, dear Acc n EA notes and books. :(

那个讲座 我的联想


找到一套读书方式
果然没白费时间
来听讲座

就从早上6点
啃书到半夜11点吧各位 !

那个讲座
由师兄俊康,秋炜和声鑫主讲
钦佩不已

原来
好成绩的背后
是多么的
尖酸 坎坷
地狱似的训练

当他在给讲座
我真的想回家
给自己开始这个
地狱似的训练



我承认我不是个天才
我家人
也曾一致认同


但我很厉害背书
我家人也一致认同
若你问我

我爸妈结婚周年纪念是何时
我们什么时候搬新家
我们什么时候
做了什么时候
还有阿毛阿猫阿茂的破蛋日


我想难不倒我吧



看来 我还是 适合背

别无选择







令我印象最深刻
还是那位口沫横飞
出口成章和脏 的那位



操一口流利的华文
接踵而来的笑话

从学业,事业,到爱情
令人听得津津有味



最重要的是
启发了我。。。



身为一位领导者
要会分配工作
注重人力资源
把下属当伙伴
他们是最大的资产


与他们一起做
不是让他们为你做


身为跟从者
这回
我更坚信 我之前所作所为是对的

做人 就应有自己的原则
你们 难听些
就像跟屁虫般
他说一 你们做一
他说二 你们做二
或许
这样就博得他的欢心

不跟随波逐流着
命运是不是孤独?

难道 你们的原则 是跟从

中二时
曾经上过一堂课
我问该老师 我该这样处理*东西*吗?
他说不该
我告诉他 是上方的意思
他一口咬定说
我只适合当跟随着
无法当领导者


反之 我们
爱反抗的一群
往往爱发表意见
搞得你们也有些不耐烦


又曾想过
祸根在哪?

非常地不满
却不能做什么
明枪暗箭 都向你们射过去
你们仍
目中无人
丝毫想改进的念头都没有

在他看得见的范围内
你们 就拼命地干

他看不到时
你们就松懈下来

我常常告诉我自己的下属
领导者 做任何事 都一直被关注
以这样的话
勉励他们
用心努力聪明地干
别让下属捉到你的把柄

我记得这是你们其中一位告诉我的

可笑的是
我自己的上属
就毫无避忌地犯错
我们盯着他
他却好像连天塌下来都不知道
不知道我们看到他犯错
犹如教螃蟹不要打横走

真的 好羡慕本校华文学会
大家和睦相处 乐融融
但 我这学会 就连上属与我擦肩而过
我也不说声 ‘HI 你好’
反而刚认识 甚至只有一面之缘
的朋友
我对他撒野

不只是我 还有很多同学会的中四伙伴这样说
不想与你们多说话
只默默把本分做好

你们 是真的没察觉到
还是察觉了也无动于衷
平平淡淡地
在几个月后
把棒子交给下一代
然后
遗臭万年?

别在摆架子了
这不会使人尊敬你
反而使人看不起你
你只是一个空壳罢了
为何就不能
多关心
多关照
身边大小事物?

每每做一些古灵精怪的小动作
却又有一箩筐的好理由
好听 是理由
难听些 是为了谋取自己要的东东
而给的烂借口吧!

真的蛮想念
前年的上司
亲切 和蔼 却公私分明
你们呢
相信大家有目共睹
有着共鸣吧

不是说你们不好
当然你们也很独特
但丑事传千里 你们听过吧
丑事往往传得比好事快

大哥大姐们
还有好多事 待您们来处理
请睁大眼睛 注意 了解
琐碎事务 就搁一旁吧
别耽误了 行动吧 为了创造更美好的将来

或许
我太直率
或许
你们认为
我没欣赏你们的好
你们当中有人看了
会在心目中大打折扣


也因为这讲座
让我有一股冲动
想把内心的不愤
统统讲出

你们要对我做什么
我无以言对

但我只想抱着
如交通局长兼马华总会长
敢怒敢言 用话直说的心态
拥有自己的原则
不会因为你们不喜欢
我就封口不说

希望你们浏览这篇后
沉思 再讨论
从中学会
当个真正的领导者
别当廖化
成大家笑柄

真正的领导者
就该要学会接受
各方的意见
在包容别人的缺点
改进自己

祝福

续:前篇

在右侧Friend in need friends indeed 的格里 , 有叶老师---叶子与学生的天空部落格网址, 也写了关于这一次比赛的细节。。 《写给不入三甲的你》有空去观赏吧!!! 在此宣传一下。。。


今天
会让我毕生难忘

我学会了 不是没样东西
像想象中那么顺利

学会放下了

众目睽睽
一朗完诗歌后 他们投给我的眼光
使我暗爽

“哈哈, 没有冠军,至少来个亚军吧!”

比完后片刻 就被叶老师拉到旁边去
“你没进三甲。。。 冠军是XXX XXX拿第三名。。。”
我听不下去 勉强挤出微笑

在礼堂
老师在台上
而我在台下
电话 是唯一可以使我得到安慰的工具

那则短讯--- 使我按捺不住内心的不忿
我的泪 在眼里打转儿

谢谢您 给予我肯定


人世难料 运气 谁说不重要
他们的主观--- 使我失败了

最辛苦的事--- 我想逞强 不想让别人为我感到悲愤
但我不是个好演员
我猜想 他们看透了我内心在淌血

胜败乃士兵家常 。。。
失败是成功之母。。。

这些话,听得多了
但当满怀希望 一下子 滑落深深的谷底
那心境 真的难以形容
前二年都夺冠 今年却爆冷
让时间治治我的伤口

谢谢诗歌比赛 给我那么大的启示
--信心越大 失望越大
抱着平常心 反而会突如预料地好

更要谢谢叶老师
在最失落的时候 用简讯来慰问我
让我感到好温暖

从来没有人 用着特别的方式
关心我 慰问我

老师的付出 让我铭记于心

****
今夜 对着那座优秀奖
在回想所付出的努力
这一次 真的流泪了

努力 = 报酬?
你错了。
还需要运气。

心是沉重 悒郁 而沉默

在成绩未揭晓前 ,残酷的事实已传入耳里。。。

台上,表演者跳舞
台下,我闭目养神
反省到底哪儿出错 使我落选三甲

是那则短讯 让我感到少许澎湃
“记得, 你是我心目中的冠军”
我鼻子酸了 感动的热泪在眼球打转。。。

我戴上面具 上台领奖
面带微笑 心里却楸着 不好受
那座优秀奖 真的 很丑
望着冠军哭成泪人的模样
回想起当年的情景

冠军 好怀念那个味道

没有第一,至少来个第二吧!
却捧个毫不显眼的优秀奖?
我真的愤愤不平 但又能如何?

心是沉重 悒郁 而沉默。。。

很多各校老师跑来慰问 声称成绩使他们大跌眼镜
仿佛为我射入了安抚剂
至少我获得它们的肯定

唉 算了吧 算了吧
庆幸有那么好的叶老师 又搂又抱的安慰我
空虚时 短讯使我的嘴角自然微微扬起
谢谢您 老师

“留得青山在,不怕没柴烧”
明年我们再来
不胜无归!



“残酷的事实令我窒息 但为无法改变的事实流泪是愚昧 它 是我心中的诗”

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

恭喜初中的冠军。来个康中三联冠。是我们的骄傲.
也恭喜所有创作得奖者。

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

一听到书法成绩揭晓 我立刻到礼堂去看
一幅幅作品贴在墙上
人潮中 我不断寻找她的作品 她的名字

最后一幅了 却不是她的名字。。。 叹

她也落选了 我的心也很沉重
与看见她那一副不在意的神情
使我更为她感到惋惜
不知如何慰问她

加油 加油 加油
加油吧 朋友
你的潜能 大家有目共睹的! 别颓丧!
