Sabbatical Course

For Hwa Chongians, you will have a sabbatical course to attend during sabbatical week,right? Basically, I am going to share my sabbatical I have bid and be chosen.
I am chosen to attend the 'CSS Website Design'. Basically, I am not good and not interested at CSS. CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheet. It contains lots of code to type in the notepad. It is mixed with the HTML Document. I do not like to recognise those complex codes. My spatial is not so high to design my CSS Website well. To enhance my creativity, I often look at a picture and think for what is it.

My classmate, Chia Hou Yi, who likes CSS and HTML of course very much, is the only classmate who is also attending the same sabbatical course. He is excel at computer skills. During the IS lesson, he is always the first one to answer the questions asked by the teacher, I wish I can learn more from him.

So, if you want to share your opinion, feel free to comment on my blog.


Lady Gaga - Alejandro

I believed that everybody knows this song by Lady Gaga. But, I think that everyone will feel surprise of this song. Why?
Usually, if you are fond of Lady Gaga's songs, you may notice that her songs are 'rough' and with complex MVs. You may even feel uncomfortable when watching those MVs, but this is Lady Gaga's style. Finally, her new song ---- Alejandro, filled with the sympathy of her towards warriors in Spain during World War I. Lyrics in this song contains language other than English, such as: Alejandro, En Su Bolsillo, etc. "Alejandro" is quite soothing, so it is now very famous and popular. Please enjoy the song:


You may notice, this song spends two minutes on her MV without any music and lyrics, so it needs 'patient' to watch or sometimes you can rather skip them.

Introduction of the creator of Owl City

This young man who made the musical project "Owl City' names Adam Randal Young, he was born in 5 June 1986. When he was young, he started to make out the music in his basement in his hometown, Owatonna, Minnesota, US.

This young fellow gained his fame in his musical album, "Ocean Eyes", with his most popular song "Firefly". "Ocean Eyes" was his third musical album, it contains "Umbrella Beach", "Vanilla Twilight", and "Fireflies". Eventually, the song "Fireflies" became the most-downloaded-song in United States of America. His album reached the famous Amazon MP3's top ten most-downloaded album list. "Tap Tap Revenge", an popular game of Iphone also released "Fireflies" as one of the songs in the game. It will be something look like this:




Furthermore, Adam Randal Young is a vegetarian and a christian.
These were some of his other projects:Port Blue, Windsor Airlift, Dolphin Park, Insect Airport, Keehar, Seagull Orchestra, Sky Sailing, and Swimming With Dolphins. These projects were already started before Young was famous.

The END of my SCARY Co-curriculars activities!!!

Hooray! This Friday is my CCA's last training. Maybe some of you know that my CCA is St. John. This CCA is exhausting. Usually, people will think that St. John is a CCA which focuses their topic about the emergency aid, but in my training my squadmates and I were asked to conduct foot-drill.(Marching)

Okay, here is a simple introduction of my CCA. My CCA's trainings are on Wednesday & Friday weekly. On Wednesday, the training is generally from 3:00p.m. to 6:30p.m., that sounds quite short, isn't it? But when we are having foot-drill, every 30 minutes of foot-drill will be only provided 5 MINUTES water break. Additionally, there are so many members in my platoon, I am not able to hydrate myself often. On Friday, the training is even more dire. It is from 2:30p.m. to 6:30p.m. I need to get into my full brigade uniforms, can you imagine the hotness I have when I am wearing my uniform. The uniform is made of thick cloth, and the beret has a tiny plastic thing which I am not sure what to call it. But the biggest problem is, the plastic little thing keep pressing my forehead during the training. I feel extremely uncomfortable, I wonder how do my squadmates persevere this.

Lastly, when I know this announcement, I am so happy. I can have more free times to do my daily routine. I do not need to wash my uniforms frequently again, and as well as polish my black shoes used during St. John's training.

*Note: If you are my St. John's PCs or NCOs, please feel relaxed when watching my post. Thanks.
