H1N1 finally had arrive!

"Flash-forward to April 2009, young Édgar Enrique Hernández in faraway La Gloria, Mexico, suffers a flu, found to be caused by a similar mosaic of swine/bird/human flu, also H1N1...."

"Thousands of miles away in Cairo, the Egyptian government decides pigs are the source of disease..."

"At the viral level, influenza is an awfully sloppy microbe that is in a constant state of mutation and evolution...."

...
Newspapers,televisions and even radios had reported this Virus spreading since May 7,2009 or earlier(I'm not sure 'bout that). At first, everybody thought that it's just another type of virus or flu that the docs will do-the-rest-thingy, but they were wrong! All of a sudden, bam! This virus had transformed into a deadly one, just like SARS spread in the year 2004. Now, everyone's worry. Gotta wear mask every where they go; wash hands after and before eating,etc etc.. The good news is: AH1N1 hasn't arrive in Batu Berendam yet, 'til yesterday....It had finally 'visited' my school...

"Wei, do you know that our school got a few students and teachers were sick after they came back from the JPA3's camp?"
"No, I dunno. How do you know?"
"Teacher told me. They were suspected of getting H1N1, you know?"
"Huh? Why is that? And how?"
"How do I know?"
"Will our school close down?"
"Maybe. Because if there's more than 5 people are suspected, then the school's closing down."
"How now?"
"Mana gua tahu?"
.....

Yesterday's conversation with a few friends. I had a mix feeling inside of me, say happy, I'm not that happy; say sad, not that sad too. So where am I? In the middle of excited,sad and happyXD
You know what? There's good news and bad news here.
Good news is:
1.There's really somebody from my school positve of H1N1.
2.School's gonna close down for a week to do some cleaning.

Bad news is:
1. 3 people positive H1N1, 30 suspected!
2. I'm afraid that I too got infected by this stupid virus.
3. School quarantined doesn't mean we can relax,it means that no going out, no tuition and no shopping.
So, I gotta stay at home stare at the walls^^

What's my mood now?
Happy- School closed for a week to do some cleaning.
Sad- July test hasn't over yet
Excited-? I dunno what I excited for-.-

By the way, I had strange kind of feeling that yesterday was like a movie or something. I assume that you guys had watched Resident Evil before, and yesterday's scene was just like the movie! Funny isn't it? Lol.

News Reporter:
"A virus has escaped in a secret facility called The Hive, turning the staff into hungry zombies and releasing the mutated Lab "Animals" that they were studying."
"And now it had affected Raccoon City in midnight..."
Behind the reporter, there's chaos,everyone run like hell.
"Save yourselves!"
"Run for your life!"
But,there's no use, no help, no cure, no vaccine. Not a thing!

Too dramatic I am.*Laugh*

Besides Resident Evil, there's another movie like it: Titanic.
Everybody was not allowed to go home as scheduled yesterday. We were ordered to go to the hall for a brief talk about H1N1, after reaching in front of the hall, there were many students and teachers already.And everyone's expression was like very scared,especially the teachers'.In the movie Titanic, while the ship' sinking, the expressions of the people's face was just like yesterday the teachers' face. Lol.
And, so after the talk, the doctor who came to our school had declared that the school had been quarantined since yesterday 'till August the 3rd 2009. Woo-hoo!

I'd heard that some of my friends were coughing and had slight fever, I dunno how to help but all I do is Hope you guys get better fast and drink lots of water.

~Take Care~

Today's my younger sister's birthday.Her 14th birthday to be exact. Woke up early in the morning, had a bath and went out. Goin' Dataran Pahlawan to celebrate her b'day.
Actually, today's another friend's b'day too! The name's Mei Yen, smart girl studying in St. David Form 5, first class. She's one of my bes friend but disappoints me sometimes^^ Still are friends..Haha!!
I went with my sis to DP first, then 'bout 5p.m., went MBO Cinema with Mian and friends to watch Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince. Wanna know who the half-blood prince? Let me tell you then,is Professor Snape.
Unfortunately, this show turned out to be boring.
My advise: Dun waste your money to go and watch,or because you wanna see Daniel Radcliffe's face!?

"Gosh,will you stop it already!"
"Yeah,enough with the:"Oh my god! Daniel's hot!" thing..."
"Oops, sorry. I think I'm too excited!" *Shriek*
"I wonder why you're one of my friend-.-"
"Why not?"
"Because you're nuts!"
"I'm not."
"Yes you are!"
"Ok, guys. Just cut it out. Let her be, alright."
"Thanks, so sweet of you."
"Don't thank me yet, I'm not on our side." *Laughing*
"Fine, then..."
....
(Just a small part of dialouge I think some people will have if their friends went nuts^^)


Come back,

I got nothing much to say, no idea too.
Iwas not feeling well since yesterday, but still went singing. Now, my throat's 'aching'^^
It's ok, though, will drink lots of water to prevent it got worst.

Oh yeah, almost forget somethin', I had a new friend today, her name's Sze Ying(think I din spelt wrong your nameXP)
I reached home 'bout 10.30p.m. Took a bath and now, I'm sitting here.....goin' to end my story.

SMK Munshi Abdullah Chess Open '09

On July 11th 2009, my school's Chess Club had organized a chess tournament among the schools of Malacca.
I'm one of the participant and the 'helper'(bought the needed stuff for the competition)XD


Here goes...
On the day of the competition, I woke up at 'bout 6.59a.m. Mom was very anxious about she's gonna late for her dunno what meeting in her school at Selandar(I think was a meeting). So, we set off at 7.05a.m. so that mom wouldn't be late. After dropping her off at mom's colleague's house, dad sent me to my school.

Oh, before the day of the competition,on Friday that was, I'd received two messages from my friends. One was my classmate and friend, Mingshu, the other one was Mei Yen. Both of them wished me good luck during that competition and try my best. Was quite surprised when they wished me good luck^^
Thanks to you guys, I got the 'semangat' to beat the other participants. Muahahaha!!

Continue to my story, once i reached school, i walked straight away to the astaka(is the place where my school's having assembly every tuesday)to look for my friends who were all arbiters on that day. They were really there as no one wanna go up to the library. By the way, the competition was held in my school's library located on the 1st floor of Block E of the school. After I'd approached to my friends, the organizer of this competition, Aaron, had also arrived, he asked us to go up to arrange all the
chess sets and prepare for the competition. We go up to the library as told. Luckily, the sets were all laying there lazily as if waiting for us to move them.So, after doing some preparation, most of the other participants had arrived. And after the pairing had came out, began the competition!
Oh, I forgot another thing: this competition was played in groups, each group had 4 persons. So, Munshi girls' team had 2 teams altogether, a strong one and a not-so-strong team(no offense!) About the boys' team, there were a number of them but I'm not sure the exact number.

In the first round, Munshi's girl team no.1 against GB's girl team no.2. I don't had
an opponent so in the first round I'd won automatically. Haha!

In second round, Munshi's girl team no.1 against GB's girl team no.1. This time was not good luck, my opponent was my friend who was very good in chess. We met before in MSS Chess Competition, that's why I was afraid. Still loss...

As for the third round, Munshi's girl team no.1 against Munshi's girl team no.2. It's quite strange why same school 'fought' with each other. This was because there were only four groups of girls in this competition, it's not enough to play six rounds so they'd decided we must play six rounds, in the end, we played among our friends.I won in this round^^

Next, Munshi's girl team no.1 against GB's girl team no.2 again but opponents changed. Still won in this round. Gosh, I'm goodXD

Then, in the fifth round, Munshi's girl team no.1 against Munshi's girl team no.2 again with another opponent. She's my friend, Ying Dieh's younger sister, Ying Ting. I won too!

Now, in the final round. Munshi's girl team no.1 against GB's girl team no.1, again, with opponent changed. I was against my GB friend's younger sister. This was a tough one too, I loss in this round:(

Bla bla bla....
After the competition was over,my team got the second place while
the first place went to GB's girl team no.1. Munshi's girl team no.2 got the third place.
Then we cleaned up and took lots of photos! Was havin' fun with friends on that day!

I was doin' nothing because I don't have an opponent^^

That was me in the fifth round.
