Dont Drink and Drive!!!!!

"EF Teacher Died in a motorbike accident on 16th of December"

So, 

I was just browsing on facebook and wished my friend's sister happy belated bday when I stumblen upon her blog link.

So I decided to take a look at her marvelous blog and saw this blog entry she did.

She posted a story about her EF teacher who died in a terrible motorbike accident last december.

I know it's kinda late to do this entry now.

Even worse, I dont know this person at all.

He was David Kingsley William. He was a teacher at EF Kayoon as I've said before.

This post was not intended to be a tribute for him but I just dont want him to die in vain.

Please please please dont drink and drive!!!

I am Indonesian, and I am not saying that we are better than those people we call 'bule'  which basically means caucasian.

It's just I cant help feeling sad for those people who died in accident just because they were drunk or the driver was drunk.

Come on people!!

Dont you know that people at home are waiting for you??

Dont you know they love you deeply that if you hurt yourself even a bit you gonna hurt them even deeper.

Living in Australia for 3 years I saw people who drink beer as if it were water.

Drunk people are not uncommon.

So, one day I decided to try one gulp of beer. It tasted way too awful that I dont even want to try again.

Why wasting your life on those taste-like-crap yellow liquid???

This David Kingsley apparently was a very loved teacher. His students are mourning on his death. His mom and fellow teacher were hysterical when they saw his death body covered in blood.

I cant help thinking why did he do that? He did not seem like those people who are depressive and seek console from alcohol. He was a well-loved man.

Albeit dont know him, I cant help feeling sad. Especially knowing his mom's and friends' reaction.

He was only 31 for god sake. 

May you rest in peace David Kingsley William. 

Your students here seem to miss you a lot, your mom and friends also.

RIP David Kingsley William

I wish I dont waste my time making this entry.

I hope this entry at least make those people who grieve upon David's death feel a little bit better.

I hope this blog entry can be useful because I think by now  I should have been asleep or busy preparing myself for tomorrow's interview.

For those who didnt know, I have an interview tomorrow morning so, please wish me luck..:)

The blah

NNNNNNNNUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!Where did my background go???!!So, I ended up looking for a new background and stumbled upon this new peaceful theme of mine..Keep changing layouts isnt that nice because I have to fix things such as the 'friends in thought section'*sigh**sobbing*

Anyway, I just found out that apparently with the world shifting to a healthier-shaped models, girls are still stuck in the old paradigm that girls should look something like the laundry board.

Are they even aware that some girls meant to have a "whole" body shape that even if you go on an extreme diet like sh*t you still can get the laundry board body??
Do they know that whether you are healthy or not is determined by the body mass index (BMI) and not determined by photos of some anorexic models???
Why cant girls just feel satisfied when they are healthy, doing sport, and nobody telling them they are fat and ugly???
*Jeezzzzzz..*

Case A
This friend of mine has the height about 150 *yes yes yes we are asians and we should eat more calcium!!!* and weigh around 43-47 approximately *have never asked her*
She looks fine for me.
In fact, she looks so petite already, so small with only 150cm of height.
Shocking me the most, she often times said she wants to go on a diet to shed some kilos.
One day I asked her how does she want to look like?
She pointed to someone look something like this...........

While in fact she already look somewhere like

Oh no. wrong picture. This girl looks like her niece instead..;pShe's so cute I cant help uploading it here..hahaha;p

Imagine this girl.
Same cuteness, same sweet smile, same asian face, same long hair, only smaller bones and 150 cm.
That shall look like my friend. 
Does she look anywhere near overweight to you?
Do you think she need to shed another few kilos?
I dont think so. I dont think she need to shed some kilo. I dont think she need to go on a diet scheme.
Yet, I cant talk her out of  it.

Case B
Yet another girl.
This time 160, very ideal body shall not be more than 57 kg.
Only need a little bit of sport to make her look more firm.
The only problem is her cheeks are chubby while none of her family member has them.
And she jumped to a conclusion that she is overweight and need to shed some kilos.

Both girl A and B are constantly saying that they need to go on diet on and on again until my ears turn red and I just feel like GAAHHH!!enough already!!

Case C
Another friend, 160 cm, 75 kg, looks somewhere near Kelly Clarkson at this stage

And as people say, she seems happy to be where she's at.
She is indeed trying to lose some weight but she told me she would stop somewhere at 60 or 55 although she said she fully aware that those range is in the upper end of her healthy BMI.
The most important thing, she is not pushing it and she does not keep saying the four words magic word D-I-E-T on and on and on and on......

My Questions are:

1. Why cant they just be happy with what they have now? I was thinking, that should be what people called greediness as the Freedictionary(dot)com describe greediness as 'Excessively desirous of acquiring or possessing'.

2. If you were a guy *or you are a guy;p*, which girl would you choose if the three of them have the same good personality?

aahh..this world oh this world..;)

Im just happy to be where I am;p

I just need a JOBBBBBB..!!!but that's a different story entirely, obviously!;p

I might, I might

Im afraid to feel it again.
But Im afraid I might already have.

Im afraid to fall again.
But Im afraid I might already have.

Im afraid to confess and share.
But I think I might have to, someday.

I feel like some part of me has been taken away from me.

I think I might not succeed again this time round, but I dont know how to get rid of it.

Lord, please help me.

Dear God

Dear God, the only thing I ask of You
Is to hold them when I'm not around
When I'm much too far away..

Ps: yes I'm gonna miss you.
I already miss you now.
I hate to say gpodbye but I, apparently, have to.
And yes, in case you don't know, I'm sad.
V v sad.

The Test That Sets The Standard

So,
In this world, people know two most famous english tests.
I wont say any name, but Im sure you know them.

Few days ago when I took preparation class for one of the tests, the person who helped me told me that so long ago *and he regretted it that much* he once helped few students who are willing to pay $2000 (Neither will I say what currency it was in because I didnt ask, so basically idk;p) to pay for the 'version zero' question sheet.
Say, my test was for tomorrow, then tonight I would get the test for that amount of money.
However, on the very day of the test, you can barely cheat.
All dodgy things must be prepared the night before.

Only this afternoon that people have found a way to cheat on the other test.
Someone I and my friend know took the test.
Suddenly my friend received a message from this particular candidate and asking what answer shall he choose *BIG hint: the questions were asking about grammar*
This test taker could even call my friend albeit could only whisper.

"The Test That Sets The Standard"
Can we still believe in this motto??
Can we still believe in the standard that those tests are setting?
To be honest I cant.
One thing that makes me more disappointed is that in order for me to be able to get a job,to fulfill my dream, I have to take one of those test *can be easily guessed which one it is;p*
I have taken the test thrice.

If only I can buy the questions or can cheat, why should I went through such torture to get the score I needed.
If only my parents have not teach me to be an honest person and to fulfill dreams without any helps neither from money nor from other people.
If only I could do such cheating method to get my dream job.
If only I could do those things to just make my parents happy.
Too many if-onlys already.....

Why should I cry for two days when the result was not what I hoped it would turn out.
Why should I argue with my mom, giving her reasons for me not being able to reach the so-called-standard that my destination country has set.
So the number that my destination country has set, wouldn't it be unfair to those honest people??allowing those cheaters to be able to achieve that score easily.

The Test That Sets The Standard.
B*LLSHIT!!!!!!
