Today was the selection of Sutomo Photography Class extracurricular. Since the registering students were too much, a selection was held. First the applicants had to answer the basic questions regarding photography for the theoretical test. And second, for the practical test, only those who were pointed did that to give examples for the whole crowd. I was one of them. Actually at first, the head of the committee chose randomly to take shots of the 'Converse shoe' pencil case. After that, he began to choose for the more professional (that's what he said), and I was the first to be pointed out. I probably know why he thought I was 'more professional'. He did mention something 'blog' so I guess he did read a post of me going to learn the basic photography skill. Gosh I was astonished, at first. Luckily, I took control of my nervousness and managed to produce a not-bad picture. Phewhh XO

The reasons behind blogging

I have so many happenings in my life to share with my blog. But first of all, in this post, I would like to re-talk about why I created this blog with this address years ago.
My name is Winny Teh. Since I don't really the way like my name appears on the blog address, I decided to translate my surname into 'tea' which means the same as 'teh' in Indonesian. So, it is practically not because I don't like my name..I ♥ my name, that I can assure you.

My first aim when creating this blog is to improve my English. But as time goes by, it has started to grow inside me, then I began to realize it has already become one of my most loyal sharing partners.
Most of the time, I blog when I feel very down or very up with my life. My blog is also my way of connecting with the world..although I admit, I don't have many readers, and I'm very fine with that.

 My friends had many times told me that I sometimes reveal too much of the private details about my life..the things that only my family and close friends should have known. Since I rarely type with names and precise details on, I think it's actually quite okay. Besides, I think people have their own business more important to mind than mine (:

I also would like to explain the reason why I rarely blog..although inside I'm screaming to post one entry each day. Many times when I feel unstable, I feel like needing someone to listen or to advise me. My blog is one of first things that would cross my mind. But then I would make up my mind because I know..once I've started typing, it is hard to stop. The thing is that I don't want too many people despite my closest ones to know too much important details I could state- moreover when I'm unstable-about me and my life. It's pointless, and could be harmful, I think.

Years ahead from now, I would love to reminisce all of the important blessings that have ever happened in my life-particularly school life. How I felt at the moment, what was my reaction, the people, everything! -this is also the aim of my blog.

Soo, I've already made things quite clear, haven't I? :)
This blog is never aiming to harm anybody, as it is only (as I've mentioned) my sharing partner. I write about the blissful and precious happenings in my life, the lessons learned, and everything important to me. So thank you for letting me share this diary of mine.. :)

I ♥ YOU..

Sometimes, after years of a thing once happened in your life, you will think you might have forgotten how exactly the thing feels or looks like..or that it will surely not affect you when you look at it now. I used to be one of the loyal believer..before I experienced it myself. Time heals, they say, but that doesn't really apply to me, I guess. Even though I have left out many of the tiny details, the used-to-be important ones have never left my mind. Not up til now.

I didn't realize those things I typed above before the last lesson of school today. When the Indonesian language teacher asked us to write a short story, the first thing that came across my mind was (always and have been) the happy memories. Ironic, I guess, considering how long had that event taken place. Moreover, series of events had passed by, and that was the first to come across as though it has been the greatest blessing ever happened up til now. Sad to say, it isn't easy for me to forget any of them. Because, time goes along with the memories..as if they had just currently happened to me.

Last Saturday was my Granny's 84th Birthday ♥♥♥
Ever since I was a child, ever since I can remember, my granny was the one who practically did all of the taking-care. Her affection towards all of her grandchildren..her worries, and everything..was the way she loves us. Even though a cousin of mine had had 2 sons aged around 8 and 10, my granny still had not got over worrying him every day and night..let alone when my cousin is sick. My granny is the only person on earth with the kindness and love that has never faded with time. She prioritizes all of her children and grandchildren before herself. She's also the one all of the family members worry about most of the time, because of her weak body and over-worried habit. She's the role model of metta for me. I ♥ YOU Grandma.

 

now SHE, is the greatest blessing ever happened in my life..♥♥

The Third year of senior high is about to start in a blink of an eye. One last year left to savor my senior high...o n e.Sad to say, some of my classmates and close friends had to leave Science-2 this year. How unfair the headmistress is..GRRR Fortunately, we won't have to face her anymore, as she is about to retire in no time. The next principal would be our Chemistry and new Form teacher, Mr Khoe Tjok Tjin. As far as I know, he masters all materials we are learning or going to. A total genius, I would say! I'm happy for him, we all do! But this means, he won't be teaching Chemistry anymore.. let alone be our form teacher this year :(

School starts tomorrow, as well as my vacation trip. I'm departing to Singapore tonight before heading to Hong Kong. This is a (too) sudden trip! Since my eldest and elder sisters have got home for several days, and the internal family is complete, Daddy planned to have a trip overseas. I'm going to enjoy every bit of it :)


Today is Viona Vabella Tjioe's BIG DAY. This tiny but awfully-smart girl is finally stepping the age of 17 :)
Too bad I can't attend her party this weekend, but no big deal eh girl, my best wishes for youu ♥

Wish me a pleasant trip, will you? :)

Dear my SuperDad

"I've never given much thought to how I would die...

but to die in the place of someone I love..seems like a good way to go."
-Bella Swan.

Things happened these few weeks of holiday had caused me to ponder a lot..which is, I think, good. I have not been using much of my brain's ability for quite some time, and unlike what I used to think, thinking about studies is easier than about life problems.

Dad..has often been the one to make me conscious of all those. His unreasonable scoldings, angers, protection, and love towards me are his ways of bringing me up. Although, to tell to truth, I dislike them. At good times, he showers me with unconditional love, give me almost everything that I wish for, and make me believe that nothing impossible for me to reach. But in return, he puts high expectations on me. Not only in education, but in everyday life's matters. High risks, high returns..I know. But I can't stand disappointing him anymore. The stern scoldings, harsh words, when my work was nothing up to his expectations.

They are just very high, I can tell. It's not like they're impossible, but I just need to learn first step by step. I'm not born having all the requirements of a wonder girl. Yeah, I aim to be one, I always do. But now, I'm not even close to it, Daddy, not yet.

TIME. That's what I lack..but keep wasting. To make the full use of it, and my mind, that's what I'm aiming for.
I promise you..someday, someway, I will be the way I should be. And by that time, I hope you will still walk with your head up, chin high, when telling people I am your daughter. Just like the way I am now when I mention to anybody about you.
