In Real Life

I was once held hostage by a crazy boy with a gun. Three of us were held hostage and he directed us into our place by grunts, waves and points. When we were slow he fired some warning shots.

We huddled together, trying to use each other as a human shield. He would point his gun at one of us, see the fear and laugh. He was living for the sense of power he felt and three of us were stuck like dead rabbits.

Actually, this happened during Chinese New Year in my aunt's tuition centre. The gunman was my cousin. The other two "hostages" were also my cousins. The gun in his hand was a BB gun. Not so bad, but this gun would leave a dense blue-black where you were hit.

In the end, he got bored of it. But, for good measure, he shot us a few times before he left.

Big Wind Coming

The first week of school is over. Usually this won't matter a single bit to me but titanic, geodesic forces have been at work. So now I am attending a tution center which runs like a school. Five days a week and eight hours a day.

The report so far is that I have survived. But it was exhausting. Very exhausting to the point of insufficient funds.

The school is in a secret location I shall not divulge. I have been attending Malay and Chinese classes. I have very little idea or no idea what is going on most of the time during these classess.

My first assignment:

Cita-cita saya dan sepuluh langkah saya akan mengambil (to achive them)

Cita-cita saya belajar dan cakap enam bahasa ramai-ramai dengan banyak kuat-kuat.

1. Langkah pertama saya ambil ke dalam sekolah ini.

2. Langkah kedua saya ambil ke dalam bilik kelas ini.

3. Di dalam bilik kelas saya akan belajar Bahasa Melayu, Ingerris dan Cina dengan tenaga

4. Jadi, saya akan belajar tiga lagi bahasa. Saya boleh pergi ke mana-mana dan cakap dengan semua orang.

Do not notice the grammatical errors and choice of words.
