2020

So, what a year has this has been for all of us around the world. Without realizing, it's nearly to the end of the first half of the year. It's been quite a long time since my last post which was in the year 2018. There were just far too many things which happened in between this 2 years. What happen to all my time. Been to a few countries around the world such as Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Korea, China, Turkey and Greece. That was really quite a lot of countries there. Imagine how much money was involved. Well, there was supposed to be one more in the list but it was cancelled due to the covid-19 virus. So, see ya next time dear Philippines. I burnt a few domestic tickets and I am sure there are much worst cases than mine. So, let's be grateful with what we have. There must be a reason for something to happen at all times. Yeah, probably some of you have known that I am a teacher. I have not been teaching since mid March till now. This is a very long holiday indeed. But this is one holiday which we cannot go out of home for vacation one. We have to sit at home and make sure do our part in fighting the virus. So, now that everything seems to be getting better, we have been called back to our workplace to standby ourselves mentally and physically. I made my way back last week but did nothing related to school for that few days. I never imagine myself saying this but yes, I do miss school and I miss my teaching life. I hope everything can get back to normal and people stop judging us teachers. It's not our choice that schools are not reopen as soon as they want. Give the ministry some time to work it out and everyone will be happy! All the best everyone, good day!

To Continue Or Not

The best part of something is when you finally know that you have achieve success in something. This time around I have done quite a lot of first time! It's not easy to do but I have done quite a few stunning things. Now the problem is do I need to continue on doing these things. One month has passed by just like that, without realizing. Will there be more months to go? Or perhaps I was just having a long long dream? Do I actually need to wake up now? Or shall I continue on sleeping and dream for some more time? I tend to seek consultation from my dearest friends but this time I have decided to follow my heart. I will do whatever my heart tells me so. So, can you all just pray for my success? Hopefully I don't give up that easily. Good luck Allen! I really hope I can do it this time! *fingerscrossed

Be Patience In The Things We Do Every Now And Then!

It's been half a month since I last step foot here. Yeah, indeed I have said this quite often but I am gonna say it again. Time passes by really swiftly. Well, we just cannot control time. Day by day passed by just like that. There are different events occurring in our daily life. Sometimes expected while sometimes unexpected. We do not know when, where, who and how some things might just happen in front of our eyes. Who are we to judge. Who do we think we are to think like the others. We can only accept that we are nobody. Everyone has their own different path of life including you and me. We can only give advice and whether the other person listen to the advice or carry out the action is another totally different matter. 

Anyway, I can say that there are a lot of first time which happened to me for the past half a month. I am indeed grateful for all the occurring. All I wish for is that all may just be continued onto the another step. Everything need to be done step by step. We cannot rush all the time and in the end regret our  own decision. Not to be passive or negative, sometimes we just cannot be too over persistent in doing something. Be patience and wish for the best is much better at times. So, let's just wait patiently guys and gals. I believe that one day will arrive sooner or later. I shall not give up until I totally succeed or totally failed disastrously. All the best to myself.

Real Life Situation in School!

Every person in this world will have their own timing from time to time. You may be well ahead of me at this moment of time but you can never know what and how I may just overtake you and go ahead of you without you realizing. So, let's just respect the others when we give our thoughts. Some may not accept them too easily and might even get hurt in between. Humans shall always remain as humans. We have feelings and are easily affected even by the smallest things surrounding us any time of the day. The things you have said may have your own logic but that does not mean you have to keep on mumbling it in front of the others. Others may tend to get fed up easily and in the end, what do they do? They will just ignore us and walk away. 

In life, we may meet a lot of different characteristics of people surrounding us. Learn to accept and make more friends. We need to keep in mind that making friends is much better than making enemies. It's not easy to maintain a friendship but we should minimize the opportunity to make an enemy. Why do we still hold a grudge onto the others and refuse to talk to them? This is because we cared too much of them and we have been hurt too deeply by them. Well, we usually thought that time will heal but some just won't. The scars left are just too deep and cannot be undo so easily. We lost trust and we no longer care. Life goes on. We live ours, they live theirs. No one human need to depend on another human to survive in this big big world around us.

Misunderstanding happen all the time. We did not communicate the right way. The messages was not conveyed the right way and in the end, no one gave a damn. So, what are the consequences? You blame me and I blame you back. Will the matter be solved? No way. Why don't we just learn to sit down in a round table and talk to each other. Cannot settle talk till we settle it. Nothing is impossible. Well, we should not give up that easily! The show must go on! The struggle has just started and we certainly will not let it end so early! Anyway, good luck guys. Just some sharing of the things I see in my daily life nowadays! Good day people.

Allen's New Year Resolution 2018!

So, here we go again. I guess this is the place which I turn to nowadays after I deleted my mobile legend game from my cellphone. I am no longer obliged to log into the game everyday and finish the tasks given from time to time. Well, now I shall have more time with my life. I can concentrate better with my surrounding people. All is good. That's what I tell myself nowadays. With this, I am setting a few targets for the year 2018. I certainly hope that this is not too late for me to set my 2018's new year resolution. January is gone, February as well but no matter what, we still have nearly 10 months to go. So, let's do it without further procrastination.

Lose at least 10 percent of my weight now. Okay, only me myself know my weight today! Now let's just keep that to myself. I will tell you all again if I managed to lose my weight! No worries. After living in denial for so long, I guess this is the most suitable time to do it. No more waiting! We shall start from tomorrow, 5.3.2018! I shall be doing exercise everyday, be it jogging or swimming. Let's eat less, eat healthy, eat less rice and surely eat less meat! And one most important thing, I shall limit myself to only one KFC in two months time, which essentially show how determined I am to cut lose of it. 

Apply for PhD before this year end. I don't want to wait any longer anymore. In life, we do not have too much time to be wasted. I am sure that I won't have much time to do so when I am involved in some other commitment in my long life. We also cannot expect the things which might occur from time to time. So, let's just get it over with as soon as possible. I know it's never easy to study for a PhD but if that is my dream, I shall pursue for it no matter what. I have done degree and masters which I never think was easy. I have gone through both stages and why shall I stop now? 

Get an other half of my life. This is something we cannot deny every now and then. There are just too many voices and sounds surrounding us who are keeping on nagging at us non-stop. Honest speaking, I tend to get really fed up easily with this. But, what they said do have their point as well. I know that age are catching me slowly as time passes by. However, it is really not an easy thing to accomplish. I shall try my best this time, no joke. In order to achieve this feat, we need to be patience and do not give up easily. When the time is right, love will appear naturally. *fingers-crossed

Make my way outside of ASIAN. After I have traveled to Taiwan in the year 2014, I have been travelling in the Asian countries only. I have make my way to Brunei, Indonesia, Singapore and Thailand recently. This coming May I shall be in Vietnam, Cambodia and maybe Laos. So, there is only Philippines and Myanmar left for the Asian countries. This time around I am determined to follow one of my course mate for the trip to Korea. I want to see this country and have some time with the winter season! So, I really hope that my dream can come true. Without this Korean trip, I don't think I can think anymore further. Now let's just make this a successful trip! Come on.

Now to the last resolution of all. Transfer back to Sibu. I know this might appear shocking to some but this time I really wanna move back compare to the other times. I know there are another 15 teachers who are competing for places with me but who cares. I just want to go back. I cannot stay here anymore longer as it is really taking away my life. I want to go back and serve my own hometown. I do not want to be in the boat express every Friday afternoon and Sunday afternoon any longer. Why can't I have the life of the other people who can spend time with their family on a sunny Sunday afternoon or hang out with my friends at night? After being in Kapit for three years, this is the first time I am so determined to move away! I really really hope that they can release me and I shall say Halo Sibu!

Yeah, this is one of the longest post which I have written before and let it be la. It's not always that I write so long. So, let's just hope I can achieve all 5 of my new year resolution for the year 2018! Wish me best of luck guys and gals out there. With this, I shall bid farewell with you all once again. See ya all again in my next post! Adios! 

Hope For The Best!

It's been some time since I last took my time off and sit down with my blog spot. There are just too many other things to do and I have not been able to keep up the pace with them. I have been indulged in a game by the name mobile legend for the past 8 months. And last night, I have decided to call it a day. It's the end for me. I am not gonna play that game anymore. It's just too time eating for me. I shall concentrate more on the other things from now onward. I have not much time left as we all know, time can never take a u-turn one. So, what can we do to utilize time. 

For those of you who know me, you will know that my age is blinking really fast these days. It's the age which people call red alert. I need to act real fast before some hazardous stuff occur. I know it's not easy but what to do, life goes on. I need to work harder and sacrifice more time in that. No more procrastination! Need to rise up and tell the world that I am no different from the others. So, no worries guys and gals, everything is well in progress. Don't think too much and we shall just be friends for now. There is always a new beginning of something good to come. We cannot expect too much from the things we are new. With this, let's hope that God can show me the right path to take.

I am writing today to express how I really feel. I do not know if love a first sight really exist in this world but who knows, let's just give it a try. Never say no to something which we have never even try before. Try it first then tell us the experience. Do not judge too fast and surely do not act too fast and furious. Too fast may scare the other half or even make the thing end up in a mess. We need to plan and do things step by step. I guess that's enough mumbling for a day. So, hopefully we can meet again soon in my next post. Good luck and have a nice day guys and gals!

What I Can Say Is

OK.. What I can say is.. Humans don't simply fall in love! It's because we are humans. We cannot simply say that we love someone just like that. We might like a lot of people but we can only fall in love with a single person at one time! One at a time, not many at one go! The people who claim so are definitely a big liar, don't believe in what he or she say!

So, once we have decided to put our heart on the table n open our heart to the other person, we may simply hope that our love may be accepted! But then, that's actually the hardest part in a relationship. To start or to initiate something to say is not an easy stuff to do. Not all can do it properly n many may just stuck at the halfway point! If we don't be determined enough to continue doing what we have been doing all along, we cannot say too much or complain too much! This is because we have given up hope even before the real race start!

In short, we need to keep on trying n aim for the best! There is no more return after we have stepped foot in the things we have done! It's not easy but we have to constantly do it in order to maintain the things we do! So, all the best to all of you out there! I seldom post nowadays but my heart shall always stay with this blogspot of mine! See ya all again next time! Bye bye!

A Sigh Of Relieved!

Do you ever have that one feeling of a sigh of relieved after you have finished something big in your life? I guess I have done mine for the past 20 months of mine. 5 semesters of masters assignments and examinations have been done. I have finished them all and now suddenly I feel like I need some more excitement in my life. Shall I continue on to the next level? Or do I need to just stay put for now? Everything is still a mystery for now. Let's just wait till after my convocation ceremony first for now. I shall rest my mind and put more focus on my teaching profession for now. 

As some of you may know, I am teaching the best class for the mathematics subject this year. The aims was to get all of them to pass the exams and more importantly, I need to achieve 9 As from a total of 25 students. So now we still have one month and 10 days to the long awaited exams. However, I don't think the students are that ready just yet. I need to drill them more and more. No more joke after this. Things are gonna get rough and all of us need to be more focused than ever. I know they can do it and we shall all march towards the end of the line together.

Other than that, since I have more time to spare after my masters course, I need to be indulge in more exercise. Need to seriously loose some weight before it become more and more chronic. So, there shall be swimming time everyday in the afternoon unless there is heavy rain. No more procrastination and more laps need to be done. Everything shall begin this afternoon. So, before I stop my mumbling here, I wish everyone a good month ahead. May all of you be happy and have a good life ahead of you! Come on people!

One Research Paper + One Project Paper! Final Semester!

I was wrong when I said that I have got all my assignments days over with. I still have one more assignment for this semester and one project paper. The positive I can get from this is that there will be no more examination paper for me this semester. However, I still need to complete my assignment and project paper before the 10th of August in order to graduate successfully this year. So, there is less than 2 months to go. I need to work hard and get this over with as soon as possible. Target locked. 5 essays in the next 10 days of holidays. Let's hope my target can be achieved. Come on Allen!

Goodbye Assignment + Welcome School Works! Busy Times Ahead!

Anyone want to have some coffee time?

Yeah, I guess some of you already got the news that I have done with my assignments for the whole semester. And the thing is, this is the last assignment for the whole master thing. I completed everything in 10 days time. All in one school holiday! Oh my, I still have no idea how my time passed the whole time. I have been facing my laptop like non-stop. It was all about assignments, eat and sleep. There was essentially no time for entertainment. I was barely able to go out for breakfast with my friends this time. Not only that, it was just a bit unusual for me to have not travel to anywhere this holiday. I usually would be going to somewhere no matter near or far. But then, for the sake of assignments, what to do la. I needed that time to finish everything as I would have face big troubles had I procrastinate again and again. 

The Picture will a father from Mill Hill

There are just so many school matters waiting for me to solve especially the year 6 extra class and teaching. I need to give them all the best so that they can at least get a pass. Now is still a bit too early to say if I can achieve it or not. But fingers crossed, hopefully I can really do it la. Come on Allen! Now that I have finished with my assignments, finally I can breath a sigh of relieved. The feeling before I have finished them all was just really not so good. You will just keep on thinking about them and do not know how to start typing. You will even open the laptop, click on the Microsoft word and still, you will be stuck at the first word. Nothing could be done and I eventually gave up. Thanks goodness, there was still the holidays for me to do battle with assignments.

When will my friends come visit me again? Haha...

Well, this was the first time I experience this, I certainly hope I do not have to meet this kind of situation too often in the future. Though I think that the earliest I will come into such situation is in two more years time. Who knows. So, after this, I can put my focus on my school's teaching and the final exam which is coming in May. This shall be the last few papers before I concentrate on doing my final project starting from the next semester. April is one of the busiest month of all in the school. There will be a lot of school competitions which will be going on and I know that I myself will be pretty busy as well. So, just bring it on! That's all for now ya, guys and gals! Have a nice day and see ya all again in the next post! Do follow my blog ya! It's www.allenpasta.blogspot.com in case anyone of you still do not know! Bye!

So let's go!

3 Tasks In 3 Days Time!!

So, I managed to finished 2 tasks at one go since last night's blog till this afternoon. And now, I am left with 3 more to go. One is almost ready to go as I have got all the information with me ready. All I need to do is to type them out with the points stated. Hopefully I can finish them in the coming few hours. Another 2 might need more time than ever! So, may God bless me abundantly! Come on Allen! Fight everything before holiday ends in 3 days time! Go go go!!!

5 Tasks In 4 Days!

Great. New update of the day. Up till now, I have managed to finish 6 out of 11 tasks given to me. That's more than half of all the assignments. But then, when I counted back, it seems like I still face insufficient time to finish all 11 tasks this holiday. I still got tonight, tomorrow, Friday, Saturday and it is Sunday already. Minus Sunday, I only have 4 days to finish up 5 tasks. Some of the tasks have not enough information to be finished yet. So, what to do. This assignments thing needs to be delayed again I guess. Gosh. This is what I dislike. The due date is like rushing up to me like the swift of the wind. Well, no matter what, I shall leave this all to the God high above. Hopefully He can guide me to the right way! All the best Allen!

Holidays With Assignments!

What a nice view!

Ok, here I am back home for my 1 week holiday... This holiday is not gonna be the same like the last few holidays before where I would normally go for some travelling. I am gonna stay at home and finish up all my assignments. Hopefully I can do so la. So, there is no time to envy the others who are happily travelling now to the other places in the big big world. Updates on assignment, I am 50% done with my assignments! So, still got another 50% to go. Come on Allen! Alright, see ya all again next time! Happy Holidays for those who are having holiday time now!

Everything Is Still The Same

Suddenly realized that I have come to an age where most of my friends are either getting married dy, already preparing for their marriage or are currently engaging in some relationship dy. Yet, I am still here steadying my ship. I am still the same old Allen since last time. Nothing has changed so far. Please don't ask me why because I have no answer for that as well. What to do. Continue to live this life la. Good luck everybody!

Some Fusses About Life

Sometimes I cannot understand how come time can pass by so swiftly without us realizing. It has been 2 weeks since I last posted anything here. And yet I thought it was more or less around 1 week. I can't really tell u what have I done for this past 2 weeks exactly. It has been work, work and work non stop. Meeting after meeting, class after class and etc. I have not been back home for the past 3 weeks including this week. So, everything have been so far so good here. Soon, I am gonna have my semester break which is the coming week. As some of you may know already, I am gonna stuff my holiday with my assignments which I need to finish all of them in that one crucial week. No more procrastinating for that one week. I need to be focus and finish all of them once and for all. 3 more days to holiday and the war shall start! Ok, tonight I just wanna write as much as possible. 

Recently, I just have a camp for the school prefect. Not that I wanna comment on anything, but the way the camp was ran over the weekend was indeed a very special way. It was like what we called individual power over collaboration. Sometimes we just like to trust ourselves more than we trust anyone else. Or maybe this is what we call power struggle. We have too much grudge on the power we have. We think that we can run the whole show but did we even care about how the others look at us. How will they feel about the way we do things. Are we just gonna be selfish in doing our things without even thinking of the others. Well, only the person in charge can tell us the answer. We may feel tired of running the tasks given during other camps but for this special camp, we felt tired of doing nothing. We did not know what to do as there were no briefing given beforehand. What to do, we can just follow or how to say, we do not even need to show up. 

People's mouth can be very bad at times and we cannot stop them from being like that. It's the way of life, the norm of the society. People just like to talk so much. No one to be blamed as we are all born like this since young. We always like to talk about others and not about ourselves. People ah people. When can be more civilized and more clever in using our words. Not everyone can understand us but we should at least try to be good. Do not overdo something we are not supposed to do. How many of us can actually keep this in mind. No one knows. Wait, actually you know, I know and God knows. Anyway, that's all for now then! See ya all in the next post ya.

Kapit Teaching Life Yo!

How come life can be like this nowadays? Yeah, I m starting to get used to the life here. I don't even have the urge and feel to apply for transfer back to my hometown anymore like I used to have when I was first posted to here 2 years ago. This year is my third year teaching in kapit. I keep on telling myself that there is no point in applying transfer as I will surely not get it. It is quite impossible as the place I want to transfer to is always full and there are still many other people who are waiting anxiously for that place above me! So, why panic? Well, there is actually a lot of good and positive thing that I m posted to this place, Kapit! It's actually very near to my hometown, 2 hours plus using express from Kapit to Sibu. Compare to last time when I was in KK, this place is much much better. Last time, I can only come back every school holiday. Now, I can go back every weekend if I choose to do so. But eventually I didn't do that. I even have the urge to stay back in order to save my Rm60 to n fro express ticket. Even though the life here is not as interesting as in Sibu or in KK last time, but at least I have found some new friends here. My school colleagues, Sibu friends who also work in Kapit and some church friends here are my loyal companions here. Some other positives are that I can save more money here as there are not much places where I could spend my money on here. The legendary road from kapit to sibu are rumored to be done in 2 years time. So, let's just hope that will really happen. *fingers crossed for that! So, all in all, I can say that Kapit is actually quite a nice place to be posted to. At least that's what I found out after 2 years here. Who knows I might stay here for another 5 years? Well, let's just follow the flow for now. All the best to my teaching life. Come on Allen! See ya all! Peace!

Some Meaningful Thoughts

Sometimes we as human cannot demand too much. We must always keep in mind that we have our limits in doing anything. We are not the best and need to keep on improving all the time. We want to do this and that and go with our own direction. But then, can we always and keep on succeed in doing so? What if there are obstacles in front of us? What can we do to overcome these problems? Well, this is how human works. Not all are willing to listen to us and not all are bad to us. No matter what, we should try to keep a positive thinking as much as possible. We can be living a far happier and better life if we can actually do so. Try to think of this, if you were given a choice, will you choose to be happy of sad? We cannot force everyone to stay with us all the time. All we can do is to be grateful with what we have now. We need to appreciate the time and effort one make in being with us all this while. Do not wait till the day we regret and think back of what should have been. There is no use in crying over those spilling milk. There shall be no more return to the good old days. 

每件事的发生一定是有个特别的原因。可能我们现在还不能确认为什么，但终有一天我们会知道那我们寻找已久的原因！加油吧，大家！

Stupid Masters AF!!

Somehow I feel like this masters thing is killing me day by day. Been thinking so hard on how to finish doing it. This semester is the toughest of all! There are no specific academic facilitator to guide us on our assignments like the semester before. This is just purely crazy! How can u expect us to finish it alone. I asked the lecturer. U know what? She told me to find google!! What the. If like this, why don't I just pay google to give me a masters? What's ur purpose then? My goodness. At least tell me how to start. This is like super independent! 

加油Masters!

就来一次华语的文章吧。我不知道我的目标到底是什么。我读masters只是为了那张纸吗？我读来做什么，我不知。但我可以肯定的是他一定有用。终有一天，我会用到他。还有差不多6个月多我就要毕业了。时间过得真的特别快哦，去年这个时间我还在第一学期。现在已经第四学期了！所以我一定要加吧劲把所有功课都做好!哈哈。。希望如此吧！加油杨备凯！

Updates Of Life Nowadays

It seems like not much people are really into blogging nowadays. But then, no matter what happen outside, Allen's Pasta shall always be here. Though I have updated not much of my stuffs here these days, I will still try my very best to be back here as often as I could. Sometimes the time just do not permit. We are all not as free as before. Too many works to deal with. Assignments. Exams. School. Test. Church. Hang outs. How many time can one divide in one day? God is fair in giving everybody 24 hours a day. No more no less. So, it is up to us to do what we feel is right for all of us. 

Today is the 20th of the month of February and it seems like the end of the month is getting nearer and nearer as days passed by. Suddenly I feel like I am in a rush to finish my syllabus for the primary 6 students. This year is a completely whole new year as I am now teaching the best class and no longer the worst class of all. I need to put more effort in delivering more passes to the school. The target are actually all passes and 10 As to the school for the subject of mathematics. I know this is possible as the students just need more polishing of what they already know. So, hopefully the targets I set could be achieved! Wish me luck guys and gals.

Now to the masters part. I am now currently in the forth semester of my masters course. We will be undertaking one elective subject and 2 major papers where I have chosen the mathematics subject as well. It has been quite tough so far now. The due date for the assignments are on the 20th of April which is coming soon in 60 days. I have practically not done anything yet. Like what I said earlier, where to find time to finish them? All I could think of is during holidays. By that time, I will have one week to finish everything at my own home. But then, I know that I must start first. Never start means never progress. Come on Allen. That's all for now. See ya all soon!
