December,1991,it was one of those auspicious days in his life....
No,it was neither the discovery of computer,nor was it the eruption of world war.To the rest of the world,it might be just another mundane day, but to him,that day was particularly a significant one.On that day,a new life was born.A pure,innocent baby was exposed to this world's rat race and for the first time ever,he experienced light shining upon his face and wind sweeping through his body.For the very first time too,he saw images,heard sounds, and get a sense of perception of the world.Albeit,at that time, he knew nothing of the world's treachery,mystery,secrets and what the lies ahead for him.But sure enough, he don't have a single bit of care in this world too.There was no problems, troubles and much less a single dilemma for him to think about.He was pampered and treated as the king, getting every attention where ever he goes.
But sadly, good times do not last long.Time passes,and soon he was sent flying to Australia with family at the age of 3.Living there for quite some time,he learned how the Aussies live and learned to adapt to the cold weather there.It wasn't long before he made some friends and started mixing around with people there.In the end,after a few years or so living there,the parents decided to bring him back to Malaysia,his hometown. Yes,it was supposed to be a year full with bittersweet memories and joyous things but somehow, the little guy bear no traces of memories regarding that particular years.
Time flies...
So, he ended up being in some small primary school,SRK Padang Tembak,just a small , not very popular school near rifle range...Having spent 6 years of primary education there,he learned quite a excitements of life from there.During the last few years of primary educations,the hormones start to kick in and he began to have pangs of interest towards the opposite gender.Albeit it was nothing more than a spur of moment puppy love that does not last long.Plus,it was one-sided entirely =D.So,that was his first encounter with the passionate yet addictive magic of love.
Again,time flies by,and soon enough the little guy finds himself studying in free school, the then
"prestigious" school.Sure enough,entering the school hailed by others as hallmarks of excellence and only for the best, the guy was thrilled with excitement and shaking with anxiety.The weeks that lies ahead only set his heart ablaze with the principal's eloquence,by his improbable admission into this school and the unexpected new life in the secondary school.The flame of passion began to burn and he continues to have high hopes in his secondary life.The euphoria was unspeakable.
Nevertheless,as he began to carve his path to future, he slowly began to realise it.The school wasn't so good after all.All those exaggerations, all those hyperbolas, they are all nothing but a disguise to the school's true image.And so , slowly losing faith to the school , he continues walking forward.For 3 years, he had been wasting his time doing pointless activities and pure nonsense.When he went in form 4,things does not get any better either.And so it continue till form 5.In form 5,he was told that this is the time to work harder,this is the time to start churning out all those efforts and perseverance.But he digressed.... He is still with his carefree and laidback attitude.
Finally,in the near end of Form 5,he was forced to deal with a major obstacle,SPM..The one thing that might change his life forever.
***
And now it's over.He's still alive and kicking.Though,the intimidating experience was over,now he is in even a bigger dilemma, the choice of his future,one of the biggest decision in his life will be in his hand now.Which road should he take?And will it be the correct path?I wonder.Nonetheless,what matters now is to cherish the present moment.He have been missing too much of the precious time.Now , is finally the time to really treasure and use his time wisely.
The perfect storm that governs the year 2008 is finally going to be over and a new dawn shall arrive silently.It has been quite a wild ride, a ride full with emotional roller coaster and turmoi.Whatever leftovers in the pre-2008 year should be forsaken.Now is the time for change.
And change... as the Noughties have shown, can be quite a ride =D.
