There is no doubt that our life changes as we got older. It is true that my present is different from my past. To me it's not really about machines or things, but it is more about my attitude. I am the one and only daughter, furthermore i am the oldest. When i was little, i hate to smile. I don't really see the point in smiling. Unfortunately, my mom's friends always asking why i don't want to smile. I don't really know how to answer, but then as i became older, i learned that smiling is good and people would be a little bit happy when seeing me smiling, especially my mom and her friends. So after that i tend to smile all the time, and my mom's friends stop asking me why i didn't smile. The other thing is that now i can be happy with simple things in life and i found out that, you are happier when you know to appreciate simple things in life.

I've changed a lot actually...but for this time,i'm going to write about the difference between the past & present about my choices of music...

before this,i like music from backstreet boys,westlife & many other boy band...the reason i'm choosing that type of music at that time is trend & also influence from my friends...

but,for today,i'm more to rock music...& this time i choose my own music...without any influence from anybody...i started to listen to some 'real musics & real songs' huhuhu...i really like songs from daughtry,aerosmith,AC/DC,david cook & even faizal tahir...songs like 'i don't want to miss a thing','fly away from here','light on','declaration','you shook me all night long','back in black','what about now' & 'sampai syurga' makes me feel better when i'm listened to them....especially when i'm bored...

I am not exactly like I in the past. At the past, I can't handle with people. i can't handle my time. I do what ever I like and ignore what other people think. But, when I stayed at hostel. I learn lots of things. The student at there teach me lots. Although they not treat me well at the first time. Day by day, they getting better with me. At hostel, it makes me be better a person.

assalamualaikum..
my past is a past for me.well went i was in primary school i am an arrogant girl.other girls in my age do not like to be my friends because of my attitude.so i dont have many friends in my past.
when i enter secondary school, i realise that i should change my attitude for my own goodnest.as a result, i have alot of friends.
changing is good but just make sure that you make a right decision in your life without been affected by any other sources.

Hello everyone!Thistitle is very good to comment. As well as you know we were finished our first semester,during that period i have faced about the real life in university. It was very hard life.However it was realy fun because the challenges make me feel i`m not a schoolboy anymore.Furthermore,i got many new friends and i am so happy with them.I hopes i will become a good student and good friend to everyone.

Hm,this post really make me want to cry(yeah,right).Ok,to just pinpoint one specific events that make me what i am now is REALLY difficult,because all the things that you encounter in your life,no matter how small or big it is,must have teach you something. One memory that I cherished most happened on 12 January 2002, when I started a new chapter of my life as a student at a boarding school.The name of the school :Sekolah Menengah Sains Sabah,or SMESH. Obviously,it is the one of the top school in Sabah at that time, and never in my life i have ever think to be in such school. I still can remember the route that i took that morning to SMESH; the banner hanged at the school gate,welcoming us; how nervous i am that morning;how my father teaches me how to tie a tie;the first person that talk to me,and the list goes on and on.. That is the start of a new life to me,as my time at SMESH is the most uplifting and teaches me the most on how to live your life.SMESH will be in my heart,now,forever and always..

i am me the way i was me - with a bit changes.

there wasn't much changes in my past compared to present. i was having a good and peaceful life by my own and the environment. what differ is that i am becoming more grateful for the people around me especially my friends who support me in my study and roommates who share stuffs with me.
i also make new friends not only to my classmates but also the seniors who i actually haven't met but we already communicate with each others quite well - as far as i can say for now.
i can now openly chat with my friend about what i was not suppose to talk about with them when i was underage. i have this one boy friend (not boyfriend) who can openly talk about the 18sx to me and we exchange informations on religions.
However, one thing that i realize much is that when i was in my secondary school, i make more friends on my opposite gender. But since i entered matriculation, i make more girl friends that i did, and they still kept in touch with me though we are now studying seperatedly.

those were the things that i think help to produce the new me.

for me, the person who change me from a really shy girl into a new person now is my beloved teacher in secondary school..mdm maimunah.

the way she teaching english in my class (in form 5) are really different compared to other teacher..

she opened my eye about self confident..she always ask the pupil to do presentation in the class..and at that moment i learn that we should be confident and never feel shy when we talk at front..

since that, i feel a bit confortable to talk in front of pupils...

i hope that i can still feel confident to talk in front of other
people..i'm still trying to be brave and confident to talk, especially in presentation..fluently in english..

i want to share with you about my ambition before and after i entered a college...since i was in primary scholl, my father asked me to be a doctor. actually i dont really like this ambition because i want to be bussinesswomen but then i still try my best to be like my father want until i entered college, i was a physical science student.actually it deserved with what i got from my SPM resutl...ya, he was a bit disappointed with it but what can he do right...and i also feel regret with it. however, when i chose chemical engineering as my course in UMP, he looked a bit happy...of course he was so happy because being an engineering is more, more better than bussinesswoman...and now, i am so thankful because finally my father accept my decision...

Now and then?! Quite an interesting topic actually. Personally, there's something happened to me that make me turn better hopefully. Actually the previous semester teaches me that in order to get a better results I should study hard. Of course everyone already knows it but because I am a lazy person and didn't do what I supposed to do so, I'll deserve that bad results. At first when I knew my pointer, I could say nothing and I lie to my parents. I told them that the haven't key in the results yet and it,s actually took a long time to know it. I felt bad and finally I willingly told my true results to them. From that day, I swear to study as hard as I could to get the best for my beloved parents.

abu hassan said...

when talk about this topic the first thing cross my mind is the song"everybody changing"by keane..this song is right since i have experiences before.in the past i was a shy person according to my mom and i think that is true because i feel afraid to talk to other person especially with my uncles or auntie..when i come through my life until now i become more confident to talk with others..so thats was a changing i think..huhu

Accually, I don't know how to write my expierience in this comment. Back then, I too stubborn boy or child in my family. I almost burn my own house because I played the matches and throwed to the dustbin. As the result, I get slapped from my father.
Now,the house is still there. My father is getting older and I'm here.
When I flashback this situation I would think I want to knock my own head with concrite bar.

Looking back into my own past reminds me a lot of my former self whom was a troublemaker. There were countless times when I involved in fighting with other guys in my secondary school and yet I had never learn my lesson. To me, fighting is just a way to show others how powerful you are and that you will be respected and feared. Being in an all-boys secondary school means that there will not be any pretty girls walking outside the school corridor to look at and the only activity to kill off time will be fighting. Well, that's me 6 years ago. What changed me to become who I am now? There were many factors that contributed to this and one of them was actually because of my Geography teacher, Mr Jamal. He gave me chances times and again whenever I was caught for my wrongdoings. He even warned other bad boys not to influence me anymore. I was wondering why he did all these for the sake of a hopeless student like me...and I found out my answer later on...he had a son who was killed in secondary school years before me because of being involved in fighting as well...It was hard at 1st to change myself to study mode because I just cant concentrate in class, but slowly I was able to rise up again and got a place for myself in the 1st class when I was in form 3. It's not too late to change if you are willing to, because when there's a will, there is always a way.

kelvin said...

At my childhood age, im just a kid, a lazy one, always wandering around with friends without any ambitions. In school, when im being asked by teacher about what my ambition is, i just simply answered 'astraunut!!' Actually, i just simply wanted to satisfy my teacher's question, as i really didn't think about my future, or more accurately, i didn't care and i didn't know why i should care....
However, something happened one day that made change my point of view, the reality of this world!! My father came back home one day and he said that his factory that he was working in was closed and he was jobless now. This was an big impact for us as he was the breadwinner in our family. Then, he started to find job everyday. It was a hard time. He told me that its hard to find a suitable job without a 'beautiful' certificate nowadays and i knew what it mean. After that, i had set my target to study hard to be a doctor. Now, although i didn't get a chance to be a doctor, but i have a chance to be an engineer, and its really enough and satisfied. ^^

All of us know that we are growing older day by day. As we growing up, we also gain a new experience either it is sweet or bad to us. For me, I have my own experience. For your information, I didn't use to be with girls such as life in matrix or university that majority girls more than boys. In my secondary school, there are big different because in my school only boys there. In my first two week in matrix, it's quite difficult for me to fits myself there. But, thanks God that I can mix with them nicely. This thing help me a lot to cope with this university life.

wani_zs said...

i am just a normal girl living a normal life.nothing much has changed since then.only some incidents did leave some significant implications on me.to be brief,i would say that my upper forms during secondary schooling and life at matriculation do mean a lot and very much responsible for making me the me today.those times taught me loads of valuable and never-could-be-forgotten experiences.how great it would feel to be in the episodes just once again :)

azlan said...

there is no more experience to share with all of you,but i still remember during in matriculation.i'm very happy because my lecturer's biology(puan norlida) in matriculation always give me spirit for study and give me guide line,how to choose course in universitiy to achieve ultimate goal.beside that she gave me chance as a leader to conduct my tutorial at first semester and in the same time i be more responsible in my life,until this day i still contact puan norlida.so i assume her as a icon for success in my life as well as my parents and now i study in ump for continue my life.........

wanie said...

yeah..things always change as we go on in this life, either proportionally or inversely proportional..what i want to share here is about my previous secondary school - (SAKTI)..sakti taught me so many things about this unpredictable life..as early 13years, i did everything on my own on my daily life..step with my two legs on my own..wahh..i was a librarian,KRS member, and hostel prefect..all those things taught me how to be responsible, how to manage my time, handling people, learned to be grateful with whatever we have or given to us..sakti even taught me to be more brave..i love KRS so much.at first i don't like to march, but then starting from form2-form5, what i did was marching..marching..till got warned by my family as my performance in studies decreasing and hard to improve..hehe..too many sweet memories at sakti..here, I would like to thank my beloved teachers, mr abd aziz husin, mr zamzaidi,mr noorihsham, ms linda, ms shikin, ms zarina and many more..u brightened my life and I’ll never forget sakti in my whole life..i’ve graduate from sakti and be a better person than the first day I came there. So here, I wish I ‘ll graduate from ump and be a better person than the first day I came here..

actually, i have a better live from the past.i do know why i had change a lot now. :(
i use to be a very hardworking person in my previous school in MJSC MERSING(Mara Junior Science College).I got a good result in almost every examination,a good achievement and my dream to be one of the top students had come true.

but,after the school end,my attitude change.since i was in matriculation till now,i had become quite lazy person.and my examination's result was bad also.i think i had become like this because there are no discipline when you are studying in matriculation or university.when you study at boarding school,you are force to attend to preparation class.so,there are more time for you to study.
i had try my best to change what i need to change,but it's not working.
i think,i need my mom to be with me here so that someone will force me to study just like in previous school before..hahaha

dieyba said...

Experience is the best teacher….
To be honestly,I’m quite different from past..
Before this, during my secondary school.
I’m a hardworking student..
One of the experients that make me proud to myself is
I can stay at school until 5pm to study with my friend..
We make a study group…
Because of my study group, I got the best result in spm..
( the only result that make me proud to myself during my life )
My friend also got the best result..
And based on that result..
I further study at KMM…
In KMM.. I became a quite lazy person…
I know that I need to maintain my behavior..
Become a hardworking person…
But I can’t do that..
.maybe because of the friend influence..
I’m got the terrible result in final exam..
So…now I’m at UMP…
I always with the bad behavior….
Still lazy and lazy..
I become lazier because of the things that I have
Here..my laptop..my novels..
But I really hope to be like before…
Like I’m in form 4 and 5…..
This semester will give me more tension because of the
Tough subject…so dieyba..please…be more hardworking than before..

now and then..
people may change..but i believe everything happens for a reason..
i am the youngest in my family.everybody know how is the behavior of a youngest children,especially a girl..i'm quite childish.when i was in secondary school,i stayed at house with my parents only since my sisters studied at boarding school.at that time,i thought,why they must study far away,it make me sick missing them.i also cannot separate with my mother for a long time.i get no offer from boarding school,little bit frustrating,but so much happy because i can stay at home!then i went to matriculation.homesick is normal for me.after some months,i feel better and better.and now i'm here,far from family,always missing them,but i know this is for my own good.staying away from family teaches me to be more matured and independent..

I am different from before in the way of thinking and handle things. Perhaps that's what we called being mature as time passed. Before this, I was a perfectionist. I wanted everything to be done under my control and I wanted to be the best in the class. Because of the perfectionism, it was quite hard for me to cooperate with others. I would neglect others’ feeling as wanted thing to be done in my own way. Sometime, I would just rather to do it myself and this made me feel tired and exhausted, even stressful. However, I have changed quite a lot now. At least, I will try to tell myself that imperfection makes thing more valuable. What I have realised now is that the process of doing thing together with friends is more important than the outcome itself. Thanks for giving me this kind of topic to give comment to, which made me realise that I have grown up and never a teenage girl anymore.

Before this I’ve never been separate from my family too far like this. I’m from Kedah but now I’m studying in Pahang. My friend always said to me before I study in UMP that I am such a ‘good’ child that never leave the family. Sometimes, it hurt my feeling but to me it is such luck that I’ve never being too far from my family till I’m in 19 years old. Hahaha….now I’m in Pahang. For the first time I can’t look at my family’s face everyday. Such a new experience to me when I’ve to face that feeling. Miss my family too much! Sometime I feel like want to run back to my hometown but then I end up by looking the picture of them. These teach me how it feels when your family is not in front of you. And now I’ve to do all things by my self without any help from my father. Hurm…maybe I can become more mature after experienced in things like this…

It is really kinda touching after reading all these post from my fellow friends. I learned a lot from you all, let’s by gone be by gone, do not look back because it was imperfect or somehow a bad memory. So, now is my turn to share my experience. The story begins… After my STPM exam, I was offered a part time job by my friend. It was really interesting after listened the job description by him. The working time was short, flexible and the most important thing – high salary. I got my own room also. The job was Cassette Jockey. I was quite happy with the job at the first time and cannot deny that I learned a lot of things there. I was exposed to a lot of PA system gadgets and also learned how to play the right music at the right time and my boss treat me very nicely. As the time pass, I noticed that ‘there’ was no longer a good place to work. It was a complicated place in short. I saw a lot of ‘disgusting scene’ there… That time, I was wondering, wondering is there any illegal trading there, wondering why human being can behave and act until that extinct. They can even live without any dignity. I was quite sympathize with someone there either. One day, I was informed by my supervisor to switch off whole the speakers and turn off the music. After went out from my CJ room, I just realized that got a lots police outside. Everyone is required to pass up IC and undergo an urine test. 6,7 police were holding their touch light and checked the every single area out-and-out. Hmm… It was a good experience and I think it was also a last time for me to being test. 2 girls were arrested by the police on the spot. Their urine test had shown positive. They were having drugs!! After the checking, I was on my way to go back my room. Just before reaching the door, I saw someone digging something in my room. I knew something wrong might happen. Out of the blue, the idiot girl really hided something illegal in my room. It was a bag of pill. I was on fire and out of control because I knew that it will be a big troublesome for me if these things were found by the police. I scolded her seriously and intended to beat her. However, I was stopped by my supervisor. Without any doubt, I resigned from the company on the spot.
I learnt a lot from this incident. Not everything is exactly what you think, some may be as simple as ABC but some may be very very complicated. So, do not be so naïve and easily believe what you heard. You must think it and consider properly when encounter some problems. Choose the correct way and do it without any regrets.
