Impression

All the while, keeping a good impression, being a good boy, being a good student, being mature, not fooling around, serious in class makes me so not cool among my classmates. I care too much of what people think of me, not being myself frequently. Pretending to be someone I'm not, very tiring indeed. Couldn't sleep well because of the stupid bed and the pillow, still thinks that my room is still too small !!! I have too much complaints about this school. I don't like it here. I am not happy. Only with my friends, hayley and tom i can be myself. Not worrying what they will think of me, I can express myself when I am with them. Telling cold jokes, shouting, acting stupid and childish. Cannot imagine how it would be next semester without them. Another thing is the rabbit, just when I thought we were going well, suddenly I dont know what happened, she stopped talking to me, avoiding me and everything. Did I give a wrong signal ? Is she worried that I am chasing after her ? That she dont want to be a third party and ruin my relationship ? I am just looking for friendship. Like what I had in the past, people who I can talk to when I have problems to solve. To ask for opinions, someone to understand me. Which I found that it is very hard here because we are only seeing each other for 6 months. Since she act this way, I think I have to respect her decision. She must have thought about it and decided to act this way, I dont see any reasons to clear things up because I might just make matters worse. We are in the same group, sees each other in class for all subjects. German and even service class. Now, we dont even talk to each other, not even when we are face to face or doing the same task. I just feel that if she wants to avoid me, I better keep my distance. And I think she sensed it already. So, let it be. She always looks up on me because I am picking up everything very fast. German, tourism, everything. Besides that I can also speak fluent english. She used to ask me for help especially for her english presentations. I thought we can become closer by helping her. She even said that she would treat me once. And so, we set a date. All this while, she never text me. For the first time in 4 months, she sent me a text. Telling me that she is going out with her friends, so we have to change to another day. I was disappointed. That was the first, also the last text i received from her. Never knew that she wouldnt give a damn about me after her presentation is done. My friend said that her presentation was the best in class. Of course. But then she never came back, not even to say thank you. That's the least she could do. But then, nothing. What more can I do ? I just have to step back now. Exams are coming and I need to get rid of this out of my head to focus. I just regret that I put too much hope and effort so that we can be good friends, which I should be putting them onto my studies. Because I'm stupid. I'm an idiot. I know clearly that I don't feel anything for her. I somehow managed to apply for internship. Hopefully I get it. Many thanks to tom and hayley for helping me getting through this friendship that never succeeded. It is time to face the reality Pisces, your worst nightmare.

Confused

I got some feedback from the Diploma in IMI.

Somehow I feel doing Diploma here is not that worth it.

I compared with a few friends who did and did not do Diploma here in IMI.

My friends who used to study in Taylors College back in KL told me that Diploma was 2 years.

As I was told, Diploma in Hospitality is very much based on kitchen and service.

They were saying that back in Taylor's they learned a lot more compared to what they offer here.

They had beverage classes, Kitchen, Service.

They had the same course here but I got a feeling that they just go through things briefly where Taylor's college really get into the details.

I was comparing what I was learning here and what they learned during their first years.

In terms of service, there's a bit difference due to French fine dining & American fine dining. So we cannot really compare.

In beverage class, Taylors College provide classes where students really experience and learn to do cocktails, mock-tails for serving guest purpose.

While here, we only learned how to make Coffee such as double espresso, Cappuccino, with the machine.

Here, most of the things were done in theory. I did learn about cocktails here but only through theory. Next week we are going to visit the bar but we don't get to make cocktails ourselves.

Even in Diploma, they did not learn what my friends learned which I feel is a disadvantage in the future.

In kitchen, Taylor graduates appear to learned more than Diploma students who graduated from IMI.

They discussed about the differences with their classmates in Higher Diploma and it seems that the standard of Certificate & Diploma here is not providing enough.

Then I had another Thai friend who did Diploma in Culinary in New Zealand before joining IMI.

He also agreed that what they are teaching here are not 'up to standards'

Lately they were talking about internships. Some of my friends from Higher Diploma did not even get an interview yet but my friends who did Diploma in Taylors and in New Zealand Culinary school already had 3 interviews and still more to come for the following months. I feel that they are more competitive in terms of knowledge and experience to those who were here all along.

I feel that now I still have a choice before I continue from here.

Maybe I'm looking at the wrong perspective ?

I want to be competitive. Not in terms of studies but in terms of performance and leading. Studies do play a part but experience beats everything. What should I do now ?

Touched

Today i watched a movie name "The notebook".

Its about a old guy Noah telling another old woman Allie about a love story.

Their love story.

Allie somehow lost her memory but when Noah reads her the story, her memories comes and go.

They were young couples and fell in love, but faced obstacles where the mother of the Allie did not approve the relationship, after that she had to leave the town to pursue her studies. Noah wrote letters everyday, but her mother kept all the letters away. After one year, without any reply, Noah stopped writing and decided to join the army. And Allie met another fine young man. Once again she fell in love.

Noah came back from the army and started to build a house. A house once they dreamed of. Hoping that she would come back one day. Eventually she did although she agreed to marry that man. In the end, they had a family and stayed in that house. At the end of the story, Allie remembered that it was their love story. It was written by Allie herself.

She wrote : read this to me, and i'll come back to you.

They started to dance. But after a while, the memory went away and started to push Noah away. The doctor and nurse had to help and calm Allie down. Noah was very very sad. To see the one that you love, not knowing who you are. In the end, they held hands and went on to another world.

This movie reminds me of Pei hua and myself, of all the things she done for me.

I missed her alot. Today. I recalled all the memories.

When we were in lower six, i held her hand for the first time when i taught her how to dance. The day i ran half the school building just to get her number.

The days we would text each other almost every night.

Wishing good night, good luck for exam and everything.

The day i confessed.

The day we first kissed.

We would hold our hands in the car. Listen to songs, and sing together.

The day of my birthday, we sat outside my house at the porch and chat. At that moment, i never thought they were preparing the cake inside. Although i'm very aware of there will be a cake, but then at that moment when i was with her. I felt that i can let go all my worries, even lose my awareness. She attracted all my attentions when she was in front of me. Then when we went in to the house again, there goes the surprise. Thank you all my friends who were there. Wei xiang

Thank you very much. Eugene and Vivian wasnt there if i remembered correctly. But still i received a birthday card from vivian and also a wish from my dear friend. I wanted to go home so badly. But i must stay strong.

At this point of time, i know i must cheerish what is most important to me.

In order to do that, I know what i will need to do here.

Be strong. You still have people that you need to protect. from eugene.

Therefore, be strong i will.
