Adam khoo is so COOL!!!

During the March Holidays, the sec 5s and 4a had to go for a study skills workshop, 2.5 days not 3 coz we had a band concert so our third day was cut short. The first day was when we met our trainers. Danny, Sturat abd Huimin, i dun think u can count david in coz he only walks in occasionally. haha. Danny was our first trainer to speak to us. He is superb. Funny and very encouraging. He taught us to have more confidence in ourselves and to ofcourse study hard. He told us live stories and made us laugh. Then we had a break and we met Stuart!. He is a funny guy too who can do the moon walk. Pity he didn't walk on the moon, literally. Hahaha. He taught us skills on how to memorise things quickly and efficiently. Then we had a break again and we met Huimin. She is super cute. She taught us speed reading . Which is a super useful skill. This whole thing took us 13 hours, on the first day. Oh, and by the way, the food we were given,lunch and dinner, was not appetising at all. If you remeber, it rained for the 2 days, and when we ate, the food was also cold. Oh well. It's the holidays and the canteen vendor took the time to cook food for us so we should not be complaining right? But I am.

Second 2. It was a wake-up call for me. Because, Danny asked us about what we thought about our family, school and friends and ourselves. We all said our parents are naggy, siblings annoying, eg. Friends,do not get you, unreasonable. And others. We didnt know that inside, he was getting very PISSED at us. He really can act. He joked that we were so complaining. Then he told us that we had a time period to memorise 30 works in consecutive orser in 12 secs and if we couldn't do it, we could not enter the class again. But we still could enter lah, even if we did not make the cut. It was all a matter of mental pain and endurance. I tried. The firs try, my timing was 13 plus, then my second and fourth try was 16 secs. all because i panicked. Anyway he did say that he would be making us feel pain. Which was a good experience. After that, he showed us a video about this , was it portarican girl who was super pretty but because of an accident, she lost her beauty. She is forever scarred and her face is totally changed. Her beautiful skin was burnt off. I think 90% of her skin was burnt off . But she has forgiven the man who did this to her. Which I think is so great of her. I really admire her for her courage and her kind heart. We were all moved to tears by the video. After that I can't remeber what happen but Danny screamed at us for being so selfish which i think is really true. We think that our parents are bis, nagge, sibliings annoying. But we have never thought about how our parents, mothers especially who we so selfish in a good way mind you. That when she had us in her womb, she always did things carefully, not wanting to hurt us. And when it was time for us to come to this world, we would use all her might to get us out to have our first breathe. If not we will die. We never thought of this and we were so shock at how selfish I was. I was crying so badly. Abnd in the end i got a migraine. But i think it was all woryth it. He really woke me up. And i must thank him for that. Thank you!. After the emotional morning, we had our unappetising lunch which i had no aoppetite to eat due to the migraine and the horrible food. Then stuart talk to us. And then Huimin talk to us. Haha. Huimin came in and told us to have a dance competition and to I think boost our mood. Dirty dancing competition. From my side, I was saboed up, and Tiffany was also called up. From the other side was Gamar and Hannah. Oooh boy,. I was having a migraine and had to dance. We first danced in pairs, which gamar and Hannah won coz Tiff and I could not coordinate. Then we had the individual, I am super proud of myself in this category. Because i totally went for it. Haha. Gamar was first so she started to dance. I was sencond btw. She grind me, and other moves that u think is dirty dancing. Then it was my turn. Apparently, people thought I was going to chicken out and screw up. But I proved them wrong. I went up there and did my thing. I stood infront of Garma and stared at her, and when the music started, i crumbed, turned, bodywaved and shock my b**bs. haha. People were like HOly Shit! haha. It was not vivible for some but i could sense it and was PROUD!!!! I finally showed people that size does not matter, if you are confident and you want to ashow others what you are made of. Go for it!!! It was such a pretty site. I'm sooo proud. And now my confidence is high! Thanks to Danny and me finally taking the step to want to show it to them then i may be big, but i cand ance mind you. haha. We finished at 9 again but i was a happy girl that day and still am. I even got to eat macs that night.

Third and final day: It was an emotional day for all of the sec 4 and 5. Especially for me. We had our workshop in the mroning then we had munch and then all of us headed up to the hall for the closing ceremony. Some parents were there. Mine was. Leroy was the speaker. He told parents about what we were taught and how parents should scold their child. He told ushis life story. Then he the pearents that the students had some things to say on stage. I went up which again made me proud of myself as I am willing to do something that usually people do not want to do. I said my sorries and thankyous to my mum. But i was too busy to control my crying on stage as if i do not control, my crying would embarrass me . So i only spoke about 4 sentences 3 actually coz i repeated one and missed alot more other thiongs which i wanted to say. But I think i spoke the inportant ones. It was another emotional day for me and I thought I would be getting another migraine but luckily i didn't.

The workshop was a really enjoyable experience for me . I learnt alot of things that would be of good use to me. Haha. If you have not gone for the workshop yet, go for it. Or you could recommend it to ur school. It really is an experience to go for. Do not misss it. Loves.
