Today was 1 of those days I like purely because there was Physics Exam & Chemistry Experiment. It was not just any exam, it was an international Physics competition. It was also not any Chemistry experiment, it was the 1st time in 5 years of Chemistry practical which involved small explosions (or sort of ''>.< ). We saw green flame & heard sparks pricking. Well, it was most probably either oxygen/hydrogen gas released. There were generally about 15 experiments to test. Cool & crazy, mixing, shaking, pouring & heating like 2 mad Chemists. The 4 Physics questions were no doubt mind-twisting but it certainly opened my eyes.
Let the upset thing be a lesson & the happy thing be a blessing. We're forever learning.
Good night, may tomorrow be bright.

Family Day 2010
It was the day we all have been anticipating for a long time. It was none other than the Family Day 2010. Lets take a quick tour of the day.
A beautiful mornin' was how it began,
A long queue at the Paintball range welcomes the day.
Just past 0800 and the crowd has already built up.
With Anson Chee ready for his morning bath. Meanwhile,
in the court, futsal & basketball kicked off.
Over the green, laughter & fun has long cheered up the field. Game on!
Not long later,
Anson was down. Which means Adrian will be up next.
And he was down too, then next up,
Then with familiar snare drum beats, BB made their grant entrance.
Anthony joined Benny in Tequila dance.
After a spectacular performance, it was a group photo.
Followed by Lion Dance performance that surprised many party-goers,
Next up, Mr. Wong joined the fun. Sporting. He too got a bath.
Not to miss some sale of new & reusable items which turned out quite good... sale.
As your eyes can see, the crowd was growing "exponentially" & my phone showed it was just 1200.
After juggling between my class's western food stall, haunted house & touring other stalls around the school, my stomach was still not full partly because the food sold were double the already expensive price.
Before stalls were closed, I got myself a butterfly.
and sis got a heart shape too,
Not far away, Mr. Ramesh got a chance on the paintball gun.
Soon Family Day 2010 was over, it was closing time. Helping out in food stall, haunted house & "DJ studio" (actually it's just school PA system). 1 word: exhausting, but fun.
After tearing, unplugging, cleaning, washing, arranging, demolishing, packing, carrying & some running. Finally done with closing. MBSSKL certainly got the fun, many friends, parents, old boys & girls & old & young couples gave their support. I hope the school raised the fund they need. We did it! Go Forward, MBS!

UK's UCAV
UK has produced a prototype Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle named Taranis. A collaboration of BAE Systems, Roll-Royce, QinetiQ & GE Aviation with MoD and millions of man hours in 3 years has made a giant step forwards in UK's unmanned fast-jet capability. Its stealth ability allows the UCAV to engage in intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance & possibly long-range attack. Trials will begin next year. This technology is key to sustaining a strong industrial base and to maintain the UK's leading position as a centre for engineering excellence and innovation.
A Gloomy Day
Today is not my day. I'm under the weather. Injured with a scar after the telematch. Thank God so much I'm safe & fine after some treatment. My "windows of my soul" are very crucial. Thank to some of the fateful buddies for their concern & care. Thanks to the St. John's members at MABA.
While watching an Asian School game between Malaysia & Singapore, I thought sweat was dripping when I realised the liquid is fresh red. Sooner, a quarter of my face is drenched with blood & bleeding is profuse. A Melaka national player was as panic as I was. Some survival skills kicked in, applying high pressure on the wound temporarily stopped it. After it reduced significantly, I was led to St. John's where an officer & 3 seniors helped me. I chatted with the officer about stitching while my wound was cleaned. A St. John's member, girl, said I was 可怜(pitiful) and 可爱(cute). I was flattered & melted. Twice. Not every time you get praising. It really brighten my day instantly. Last but not missed, I've Mrs. Gan & her son to thank. They really helped.
Thank you all from my heart. Good night.

Chemist Mix
Yesterday, we had our Chemistry experiment. As usual, I mixed & remixed, dripped, heat, stirred, flushed, filtered, baked like mad chemist with the help of Bann (who knew more what we were doing) & Yem. The experiment was slightly difficult 'cus I didn't really know the compound. As usual, after the experiment, only then I knew >.< "kidding" of course. Here is a picture of Al(C9H6NO)3 which btw is an Alum complex (yellow precipitate).
Another photo of the magnetic stirrer. After exploring the stirrer like a caveman seeing iPod for the first time, I found out that it works the same way like an AC motor.
Before school, it was quiet. During school, it was noisy but in order. After school, classroom became a social meeting place (more of backstage with "interviews, acting, singing") for L6 bro & sis to get their U6 bro & sis's autographs.
Most just hung on a smile for the sake of the signatures (quite obvious) while some were genuine. It really brought back some bittersweet memories. 1 more week & orientation program will be over & it also means we're boiled down to just about 3 months before meltdown. In a blink of an eye, the program that we pending for a month ago is quickly coming to an end. It's time to wrap up & be serious. Seriously.

I'm Back!
I've closed my blog after it went down. I've left but a part of me that loves writing my feelings down is still here so I'm back with a promise of more pictures 'cus I believe pictures paint a million words.
There was an intake for cadet in April. Running it again & again in my mind, I've decided to continue my F6 endeavor. It's no doubt a solid, concrete foundation for me. Besides, with eyes defect, I don't really want to take unnecessary risk. So, it means that I've chosen my path & it also means that I've just less than 3 months before trials & 4 months before meltdown, STPM. Focus!
By the way, MAS has no plans to cancel the purchase of 6 A380s meanwhile aviation analysts said MAS will do just as fine with the use of B787s. However, looking at the duration of delivery, A380s seemed to be a better choice even though its delivery date has been deferred several times. Imagine you're in a line buying food & it's a long line then all the time people are coming, suddenly you change your mind & change to the next line. Now, you're further away. This also tells you how fast airline industry is growing & how competitive between aircraft manufacturers. More & more & more people & cargo are flying. Like AirAsia always say "Everyone can fly" but now, I believe it should be "Everything can fly"!
