Episode 42: I Am In Debate Competition!!!!

YOU WISH!!!!!

Recently, I browsed through my old posts (you guys must be wandering how the hell I got so much time). Not my blog only but others as well. I found out that 3 in 1 shampoo’s blog really attracted me the most. I really like the way you guys sum up a story together. Post like “Day One (kick an ass trip to P.Penang), Who’s The Sushi King Now??” and “Journey To The North 1,2,3 and 4” (I still laugh my ass out when I hear Gunaraj’s name) are awesome piece of writing. No doubt bout that. No matter how many times I read those posts, I’ll never get bored of it. Seriously.


Anyway, back to the title. I never participated in debate competitions before. Cuz, I do not have the passion or interest in debating. But, I like to argue things out with other people when I think something is not right. Its more like asking questions like “What happen if you… Why you must do like that...Like this kenot meh? If you do like that…” For instance, my F4 Chemistry teacher ordered us (bunch of 4SC2 students) to copy notes from the whiteboard. I refuse to write those notes down, because the information at the whiteboard were all from the textbook (she copied it exactly from the textbook to the whiteboard). She found out that I wasn’t copying her notes.


Therefore she asked me to stand up and asked for an explaination. I mar go tell her that “Teacher, what’s the point of copying the same notes to our notebook where you can get it from the textbook??? Its not like I am gonna use the notebook for my revision right??” There was reason why my friends called her “volcano”. So after listening to my complain, she “erupted” and I got a scolding from her.

Terima kasih cikgu kerana buat saya “bersalin” banyak banyak.

There was one particular old post of mine that really reflects my asking-question attitude. Err.. I think you might wanna read it first before you continue on.

About 2 years go I wrote a post about how boring and dull Taiping Sentral (TS) was. Of course, before I wrote the post I already knew that I might bombarded with comments especially from the “Taiping Sentral-Haters” haters. Little did I knew that the people were actually 3 in 1 shampoo members. Gosh!!

I got bombarded with long comments from them. Haha. I think the longest comment was from FM. After reading his comment, you would probably realized the reason why he was member of SGI debate team that went all the way to the semis in the national debate tournament (correct me if I am wrong).Not to mention Kok leong and Kenny ones as well. And a few from Chan Leong and Chong Ren.

It gives me satisfaction when I read up those comments. It simply gives me a thought that my blog actually being read by my friends out there. I mean that’s the whole purpose of blogging rite?? So, when there are comments whether is good or bad (of course I would preferred the good ones la) it gives me the eagerness to reply each and every comments.

Mr.Koay, now my MUET sensei, taught me this idiom, “Write To Read”. It simply defines that what you write is for others to read. I doubt myself whether I can attract people or not to read up my blog when I first started blogging. My English was simply not good enough and I don’t possessed the ability to make my story interesting to read. I really admired the way FM wrote his stories. It is outstanding I must say. His style of writing really unique and you can always find humour in it.

I must admit that TS really upgraded a lot for the past years. Yea, I complained about the lack of entertainment in TS in my blog before. The massive transformation of TS cleared my doubts already. You can see people shooting hoops at the playground, singing at the karo-ok, playing pool and skates at the skating ring.

But I am still disappointed with the absence of major bookstores in TS. I really like books. The problem is, whenever I wanna purchase a book I have to go all the way to KL. Because only Borders or Kinokuniya got these types of books. (I dunnoe bout Ipoh la) So I am still hoping that in the near future we can see major bookstores at TS.
