I know there would be hardly someone to read all of these words, as there're more than 1000 words here, for your information. By the way, the dull and the least interesting story would surely bring you to sleep, so just stop at this point if you can't bear it.
Do proceed if you'd like.
Welcoming myself back to HELP University College, the university of achievers. Initially, i thought it would be great, as i didn't need to attend classes while the others needed...However, I didn't think that it would be this tiring after listening attentively during the whole Grand Finals of the debate, and recording the whole debate(Well, not whole actually) with my w890i's built in 3.2 mega pixels camera.
I haven't seen the recorded clip, but i don't expect it to be a good clip as i was sitting at the 3rd row from the back, and there was this Indian teacher who sat in front of me...With his big head and dark, black, curly hair right in front of me, i had a hard time trying to find a suitable angle to record the debating process, which was a extremely high standard debate you wouldn't want to miss. FYI(For your information), the phrase [extremely high standard debate] wasn't what i would have said to myself, but to every member in the hall, even to the foreigner who was a Britain and The Manager of Edexcel. I personally liked this {Ang Mo} as in Hokkien, during the time when he gave his speech, everyone clapped the most when he gave several compliment for us Malaysians. Some were about HELP University College(I didn't know it was such a well-known university until he spoke), some were about how was the debate which he complimented with the [extremely high standard debate] in comparison with the debates in England, he also said our debate here could be equivalent to one of the highest standard debates in England, which made me to be proud of Malaysia for the 1st time for whatever reason. And his speech was full of And Mo accent, that's why the whole crowd was listening so attentively that i couldn't bear the quietness of the hall. LOL
SMK Assunta VS SMK King George V. Does the school King George V ring a bell? For guys like me who has been living in Seremban since i was 5, it certainly does sound familiar...It's actually KGV, a school full of scholars in my opinion. Now, back to the debate, the representatives' English of both schools were certainly good in the sense that they can speak fluently. Despite the minor short pauses during their speeches, their mastery grammar and vocabulary were superb and spectacular, without a single doubt. I do wish if i were they, and wish i could speak as good as them. I do wish i could type more about the whole process and the title of the debate, but, as a matter of fact, i couldn't...Gotta ask the others for today's debate title as i could only follow up what exactly they were trying to argue only when the 2nd speakers of both teams started to speak, not that they didn't say clearly, it's just that i only had the faintest idea of what the hell was the title when the 1st speakers of both the Government and the Opposition started to speak.
Without further delay, i think i should just announce the results to my fellow readers. At last, the results were announced by the England/British Silver-haired guy(which i had mentioned above, the Manager of Edexcel). It was SMK King George V(KGV) who won the competition, Well Done. I did feel sorry for SMK Assunta as they were also good and they did well too, they were so close to winning, it was a tight match, actually. Both teams did exceptionally well. Actually, i myself wanted the Assunta team to win as their team were all consisting of the opposite sex(FYI, their school isn't a co-ed school like ours in Chung Hua, Assunta's a girls' school). The 1st speaker was somehow pretty and kinda cute, and i found myself can't stop looking at her attractive appearance, wtf, lol, she got me completely mesmerised. And i felt a little bad after the debate and the prize giving ceremony ended, cuz i found our that she was taller than me, damn it, no chance jor, lol...
Fortunately, her fellow teammates were not as tall as her, and they were quite, errr... short...or...not tall....=] And i immediately grab the opportunity to congratulate them and shook my hand with them. Hey, they got the 1st runner up, it's simple manners to congratulate people, right? ^^ Seems like i left out the prize giving...But i'm not gonna go into the details of the prize giving, i'm just gonna tell you the prizes given...
For SMK Assunta who got the 1st runner up, they got themselves certificates, cash worth RM3000 and scholarships worth RM 10000(if i hadn't mistaken for the actual value) if they intend to further their studies at HELP University College, of course. As for the Grand Prize Winners, they got themselves each a Sony Erricson hand phone, a BENQ digital camera, a certificate, a LCD television, a desktop computer, cash worth RM 5000 and scholarships worth RM 15000(again, if i hadn't mistaken) By the way, i don't think the LCD TV and computer are taken back to one of the debater's home for their personal home usage. I personally think they are for their school, which will be added to one of the properties of KGV from today.
Refreshments were already served before the prize giving ceremony ended. We queued up and were given some food, including curry puffs, sandwiches and a egg-tart/ blueberry tart or whatever you call it. The tart was exceptionally good, but i didn't bother to Q-up another time to just eat another tart. Instead, i took myself a cup of coffee and then a cup of tea before we chatted with Mr Lim Yee Huat about A' Levels. He then leaded us to his ex-colleague's office to let us know more about A' Levels. Dunno why the hell we were starting to worry about our future roads and studies, we inquired what we wanted to know. (Before we went up the stairs, Mr Lim actually congratulated the Assunta team, as i've mentioned above. So that was the chance i was saying, which i immediately said "Gratz" and shook hands with HER...or them...)
We had a short QnA session with Mr Lim's former colleague. Then it was time to leave, going up the van, and departed for Seremban. This was when things started to go bad, i borrowed a phone from Joel, called my KIND and LOVING grandpa. I asked Sooooo politely, '阿公，你可以来载我吗？' He sounded sleepy and claimed that he was already waiting in school. I could immediately sense he's furious and angry about something. Nevertheless, i kept quiet in the phone as i could hardly hear what he was trying to say in the phone, as the line wasn't good at that time, i suppose. I dunno wtf he was saying, but i thought i heard something like this : he waited for half an hour in school and to no avail, i was nowhere to be seen. Then, he went back to try to take a rest, or nap as we call it. I didn't want to bother about that, which i wasn't sure about what i heard. The thing i heard clearly was what he said initially, he was already waiting in the canteen, and the last thing he said was, “OK啦，在食堂等！” And then i hung up the phone as he was crapping a lot in the phone and i didn't want to hear anymore about it.
When i arrived in school, and thanked the Indian driver before getting down from the van, the familiar green coloured Myvi was nowhere to be seen. Initially, i thought he was on his way, despite him saying he was already waiting, i waited, trying my patience, eh? And then i made a second call as i was afraid i didn't hear clearly what he said on the phone and wanted to make sure i was waiting at the correct place. Fortunately, i was correct and then there he goes again, trying to crap on the phone. I already knew i had to have a little argument or quarrel with him in the car, which was the journey back home. Yep, we really had. Sorry that i don't pay much respect whenever someone intends to quarrel or scold me. My deepest apologies, but i really can't tolerate bullets firing towards me and i have to try to dodge them when i'm way too tired to even move my limbs. So couldn't he just concentrate driving the car and just cut the crap off?? What a grumpy old man he is...
And back home, taken my shower, had my dinner, and here I am, spent more than an hour typing this freakishly long post.( approximately 1.6k words, if you've read till this point. And for those whose English are good and among the best, please ignore my mistakes, it would be kind of you to point them out to me. But no thanks, really. You can't blame me for my lousy English as i've already admitted that i AM NOT AS GOOD AS YOU THINK, and I don't really have the energy and time to re-read and check my posts before posting them.)
