The most scary stunt that i never experience before...

Finally finished the lesson of Cheer Leading this evening, it was really scary and exciting!!! We learnt some basic stunts today. The first stunt we have learnt is sitting shoulder. Unfortunately, i think due to my weight and height, i could no sit on a guy's shoulder. The guy is much more taller than me plus my jump was not high enough, we couldn't do the stunt eventually. I am so sad and feel sorry to the guy since he has tried his best to lift me up....Yet, i failed to do that. Sigh....... think that i should reduce my weight for the team's good.
Then, we learn to stand on someone's shoulder (guy's shoulder),however it was a failure to me too... i was so scare and couldn't balance myself well... i didn't have self-confidence too.....

However, we didn't have partner to hold on each other like them......

For the 3rd stunt is called Extension, it is the only one i could do.

This is the first step before we go to full extension.

To do this stunt,it required trust and tacit understanding between a flyer(girl) and two basers(guys). The flyer should have trust the basers and the basers should lift the girl at the SAME time in order to balance her. At the same time, the flyer need to lock herself to balance herself. I am quite happy and exciting that i could finally do it!!! Unbelieveable!!! At first i was thinking of give up and excape from doing that stunts. Luckily i tried finally!!!

It calls FULL EXTENSION, the flyer was lift to the highest position. I am so surprised that i could do it at the 1st time and 'fell down' with a right posture.I was really worry and scare b4 trying this. But i told myself i must trust them and do well what i need to do... that is stand straight and lock myself crazy. When they put me at the highest position, i could see further and felt like flying to the sky!! I am near the sky!!!! Hahahaha...... It is the most scary and exciting action that i have never done b4. Em..... i can't find any word to describe my feeling right now..... However, it was just the basic stunts. I dun really have confidence whether i can manage to do tougher stunts or not.... ^_^' Hope god bless me!!!! ^_*
But all these stunts have its dangerours also, some of flyer including fell down before, luckily they all manage to save us!!! So, we didn't hurt much.....Phew!!!!

Ok!! After we reached the highest position, how we "fall down"??? Well, it was really fell down... the flyer should open her arms and lean back a bit, just let the ppl down there to catch her. Let's have a look at it!!!

Oh my god!! I closed my eyes when i fell down!! Hold me in time pls!!

However, by doing these stunts, guys are very important cos they need to be stronge enough to support girls' weight. But here i wanna declare that girls also need to support thier weight also. Thus, girls aslo need to be strong and brave to do!!!!
I am really appreaciate that those guys. I felt that they sacrified a lot by pushing, lifting and supporting us. Although sometimes we wrongly step on the wrong place at thier body just as shoulder, hands....... but they never blame us and keep asking us to try and try again!! Well, i really like this Team Spirit! Trust, tacit understanding, cooperation, encourage each other...... hopefully i can continue learning cheerleading. It was really fun and challenging!!!!

Here is one more pic that i found in a website. It is really COOL!!!! But we haven't reached such high level yet.

有智慧的話。。。

愚痴的人,一直想要別人去了解他。有智慧的人,卻努力地了解自己!!!

做人做事都一樣,不能一味地希望人家的了解。。。尤其是愛情,許多人往往希望自己的伴侶是一個能夠最了解自己的人;當對方不太了解自己時,就會一直的抱怨,但又有多少人會去想其實自己又有多了解對方呢?甚至對自己的了解又有多深呢?“自私”也是愛情的致命傷啊!!!

For those who leave home always.....

有一個女生,因為跟家裡處得不好,所以很少回家,
後來有一次回家,發現年老的母親走路一跛一跛的,
不經意的看了母親的腳一眼,

這才發現母親的腳指甲太長而長到肉裡面造成流血,流膿,
這時,她認真的看者已經很久沒有正眼看過的母親,
她才發現在她眼前的母親已經年老,
老到已經沒有辦法彎下身來自己剪指甲,所以才會讓雙腳的指甲傷到肉,她哭了!
從此她變每個禮拜回家,用一盆溫水先幫母親泡腳再幫她剪指甲,
泡溫水是讓腳指甲變軟,才不會因為這樣不好剪而傷到母親的腳。
一直以為父母也應該跟我們一樣能適應這個變化的世界,
新的科技、新的資訊,新的理財觀...
直到最近幾年才知道他們追的蠻辛苦的,
遙控器太多太複雜、聽不懂的專業術語、完全陌生的理財工具...
直到最近幾年才知道為了怕我們不耐煩,父母偶爾忍住了想說的話,想做的事,
如果沒有這次遠遊, 遲鈍的我也不會知道,一向熱心打點照顧我們子女無微不至的父母,

退休十幾年的老爸,竟衰老得如此快速。
我們五姊妹只湊足了三個,決定陪爸媽去新加坡玩。
在去程的飛機上,老爸四小時都不願如廁,任憑我們好說歹說,他依然老僧入定,不肯起身。
在每一站觀光區,他也是非到萬不得已才進男廁。
有次我觀察到他小解很久才出來,看不到熟悉親人身影,
先是向東搜尋,繼而向西眺望,即使在這節骨眼,
他也不願放聲大喊大叫,讓我們子女沒有顏面,
站在陌生人群中,一副茫然失魂的樣子,安靜、耐心等子女們的出現,

我終於瞭解他出門在外不願如廁的原因。
以前不解事的小兒子常笑他八十幾歲的外婆,連鈕釦都不會扣,真慢!真笨!
好簡單的一件事,為什麼老人家們就是做不好?
我們還未經歷到,當然難以理解,年紀大了,
有時候手腳會不由自主、不聽使喚,
我以為老爸和婆婆之間還有一大段差距,誰知他也不知不覺走到這個階段了。
往後行程我根本無心玩賞,只要看到老爸表情稍有異樣,
便好說歹說強行押解他到男廁,自己則只好守在男廁外頭,
起初老爸感到萬分不自在,後來也就漸漸習慣了。

回程飛機上,我陪老爸去洗手間,
他忽然低聲對我說:「其實我不會鎖機上廁所的門。」
我拍拍他肩膀,告訴他:「沒關係」心裡卻翻湧出一陣心酸。
心裡很想告訴同行的妹妹,下次出遊,把各自的老公也帶來,也可以多盡一份心,
也很想告訴沒有同來的么妹,錢財日後都賺得回來,
唯有父母健在安康,又能帶著遠遊,這才是為人子最大的福份;
想告訴老爸,如廁問題解決了,我們下次可以飛到更遠的地方去旅行。

一趟旅行帶給了我許多感觸,
也讓再度離開家、身在火車上的我不禁滴下眼淚....
或許是自己太多愁善感, 也或許擔心自己的父母狀況,
只是自己一直沒發覺,才驚覺原來老爸老媽也變老了,變脆弱了,
不再是以前那「強壯的臂膀」、「溫暖的避風港」,
原來一直幫我扛著頭上那片天的巨人, 人也會變老....

後記: 《余光中的一段詩》
母難日,今生今世,我最忘情的哭聲有兩次,
一次在我生命的開始,一次在妳生命的告終,

第一次我不會記得 是聽妳說的,
第二次妳不會曉得 我說也沒用,

但兩次哭聲的中間啊! 有無窮無盡的笑聲,
一遍一遍又一遍,迴盪了整整三十年,
妳都曉得我都記得。

A Love Story

objected strongly on her dating this guy.
Saying that it has got to do with family background,& that the girl will have to suffer for the rest of her life if she were to be with him.

Due to family's pressure, the couple quarrel very often. Though the girl love the guy deeply, but she always ask him: "How deep is your love for me?"

As the guy is not good with his words, this often cause the girl to be very upset. With that & the family's pressure, the girl often vent her anger on him. As for him, he only endure it in silence.

After a couple of years, the guy finally graduated & decided to further his studies in overseas. Before leaving, he proposed to the girl: "I'm not very good with words. But all I know is that I love you. If you allow me, I will take care of you for the rest of my life. As for your family, I'll try my best to talk them round. Will you
marry me?"

The girl agreed, & with the guy's determination, the family finally gave in & agreed to let them get married. So before he leave, they got engaged.

The girl went out to the working society, whereas the guy was overseas, continuing his studies. They sent their love through emails & phone calls. Though it's hard, but both never thought of giving up.

One day, while the girl was on her way to work, she was knocked down by a car that lost control. When she woke up, she saw her parents beside her bed. She realised that she was badly injured. Seeing her mum crying, she wanted to comfort her. But she realized that all that could come out of her mouth was just a sigh. She has lost her voice......

The doctors says that the impact on her brain has caused her to lose her voice. Listening to her parents' comfort, but with nothing coming out from her, she broke down.

During the stay in hospital, besides silence cry,.....it's still just silence cry that companied her. Upon reaching home, everything seems to be the same. Except for the ringing tone of telephone. Which pierced into her heart everytime it rang. She does not wish to let the guy know & not wanting to be a burden to him, she wrote a letter to him saying that she does not wish to wait any longer.

With that, she sent the ring back to him. In return, the guy sent millions & millions of reply, and countless of phonecalls,.. all the girl could do, besides crying, is still crying....

The parents decided to move away, hoping that she could eventually forget everything & be happy.

With a new environment, the girl learn sign language & started a new life. Telling herself everyday that she must forget the guy. One day, her friend came & told her that he's back. She asked her friend not to let him know what happened to her. Since then, there wasn't anymore news of him.

A year has passed & her friend came with an envelope, containing an invitation card for the guy's wedding. The girl was shattered. When she open the letter, she saw her name in it instead.

When she was about to ask her friend what's going on, she saw the guy standing in front of her. He used sign language telling her "I've spent a year's time to learn sign language. Just to let you know that I've not forgotten our promise. Let me have the chance to be your voice. I Love You. With that, he slipped the ring back into her finger. The girl finally smiled.

iF u really like the story, repost it so that ur frenDs can read it too...and fulfill any unfulfilled promises.... ^_^

Today, i bought a NIKE sport shoe in Queenway Shopping Mall with Tyng. I was told that the shoes' price there are quite reasonable compare to the other. However it was quite expensive for my shoe, it costed me about SG$104!!! Wo.... dunnow how to explain to my dad. But i think he will understand me.... hehehe... Cos i can wear a shoe at least for a few years...
Then we went to IMM and NTUC with Rie and Zi Bin to buy some stuffs for cooking Japanese food... We bought a lot and we left until they closed... ^_* Hehehhe......However,it was a craziest day that i have ever had b4 in NUS. Why do i say so????!!!! After coming back to PGP, Tyng, Zi Bin and me have had a Waltz dance lesson from Rie from 1.30am until 4.30am. It was quite fun!!! I finally hav an idea what is ball room dance about. ^_^ Thanks Rie. Then, we had a 'breakfast' with Waffer and Japanese radish soup which were cooked by Zi Bin. Then, we decided to continue our madness followed by Tennis Table until around 5.30am. Then i ended up to wake up around 11am to rush for my assignments and my preparation for my coming tests.

It was the most craziest night we have never had b4!! It would be a memoriable night for me in NUS with them. ^o^

Malaysian basketball night ^^

~~Jumaat Malam~~
It was a windy evening.... my malaysian friends, Sam and Suk Min asked Tyng and me go down for basketball... after hesitate for a while, we decided to go down and play. Why did we hesitate before??? It is because it was just a girl, Suk Min in the team. The others were guys!!!! My god!! We were worry we will get bored and kacau them...... However, we went down and played finally.
Thus, Sam, Tyng, Hong Wu and another guy were in one team as Zi Bin, Jenfrey, me and another guy were in another team. It was really a good match although i was like a 'extra' in my team. I didn't help much in the team and i acted like a 'wooden' people. ^_* However, i enjoyed the game so much. I could see how great those guys were playing. It was really fun. How i wish i could play so 'geng' like them!!!!!
After the basketball court lights has turned off. Our match was ended. But some of us still felt like not ready to leave. We were still played and practised our skills there. Hence, i had a chance to play finally!! Hahahah..... Sam taught me his '絕技' to me...... he can plays and shot the ball very 有型!!! Hahahhaa.... practise really make prefect!!! I know he practice a lot!!

After that, Sam came to my kitchen and ate my porridge which Tyng and me cook together. We both like the porridge so much. But Sam critic it..... :( But i admited that the porridge was not nice anymore when he ate it. Sorry Sam!!! Then, we had Honey Dew with Sam, Zi Bin and Tyng. YummY!!!!

Today we ate a lot and played a lot!!! ^0^
Happy day!!

Jenseits der Stille

Hahaha....... i am quite lucky because i met a leng cai today. He was wearing a simple while shirt, long pants and sport shoe. Hmm........... i like to see a guy wear like that.... :P SIMPLE & NICE!!!! It is quite comfortable to see ppl wear appropriately to school rather than seeing ppl wear a short pants with slipper. #_# Dun u agree it too???!!!!

Ich habe heute im LT10 einen Film gesehen. Aber das ist nichts sher gut. Ich finde es verstehen nicht. :( Der Film ist Jenseits der Stille. This was my first time to watch German movie. That is talked about a girl named Lara, a eight years old girl whose parents are both deaf. Luckily she didn't inherite the 'disease', so she becomes a translator and speaker at home. On a Christmas Day in her Grandparents's house, she heard her Aunty and Grandfather plays music together. From that day, she fell in love with Klarinette (Clarinet, the instrument that her Aunty plays). Although her father doesn't like her play it, yet she learnt and played it for about ten years. Later, she becomes a good player in Klarinette. Her music teacher advised her to go for education to develope her talents. At the same time, her Aunty encouraged her to go to Berlin to further her education. However, her father was very angry and discourage her. Yet, she still insisted to go there alone. During the period of time, it happened many things to Lara's family included her mother's death. Finally, her father understand her and allow her to play it althought he can't hear anything. But at least, he understand his daughther. Actually i have no strong impression on this movie. Just wanna share it out. Sorry if it bored u...... ^_*
But there was not many ppl came to the movie, it was just a few of us. But i was quite surprised to see some foreigners there.... i met Eriko and Wing Yin also, they are taking German 3 and German 1 currently.... Hohoho....... ^0^

After the German movie, i moved to YIH study room. It was quite cold there although i had my jacket. Freezzing....................... However it is quite a good place for studying since ppl who surrounded you are so hardworking. So it forced you study hard too. Somemore, i won't feel boring when study there cos i will not feel that i am ALONE studying. Hehehhe.......... Thus, i studied until 12am......... Then, i walked back with my friend. It was a nice walk we have, we chat and joke on the way back. It was quite relax by walking back with friend at night. ^_^ It helps to release our stress after reading. Thanks my friend's accompany!!!!!

Oh!!! Althought i still have something to write. But it is too late now...... gonna meet my Mr Chou now!!! ZZzzzzzZzzzzzzzz..............................

Hahaha............ now i can consider get into communication and media field after my graduation other than IT field which i am weak terribly!!!!
Oh... i was angling during my lectures today again. I was very tired and sleepy for the whole day. It all because i spent too much time on my programming these days. Hence, my eyes became weak and weak recently. I got my "red eye" these day. It was really suffering and i feel it quite itchy and pain. Then, i went to University Wealth Centre after my classes. Luckily the doctor said that my eyes is okay. It just need some rest. So, i have decided i will sleep early tonight. I will love my eyes always. It is because eyes is the most important part for me.
