Dear 16 Years Old
YenYee,
After reading the posting to "
TimothyTiah" and "
FourFeetNine", I had decided to write this letter...
opss.. it's a post to a 16 year old me.
Being not a very brilliant self, you still will managed yr secondary school
kidda well with
lil' taste of skipping class, self-declared early break from school, boycott Teacher's Day celebration, and absent from school for 1 whole month. These will be accomplished within the same year when you are in 5 Lily @ 2007.
Being sandwiched between 2 groups of friends, you managed to really enjoying yr school life - with
WaiYin,
ChoyPeng,
HungYoon,
YenLin,
SeowWei, and
SeewHuey. On the other side of the class -
WaiKuan,
SiewWan,
SauLai,
KooiBee,
MelissaLok,
PakYee and
PuiLing. Yr most favourite subject in class will be Physical Education because the teacher will allow you to play any games that you like - and the choice will always be
NetBall. The match will always be
MCA vs
UNMO.
MCA always win and regardless winning or losing - all of you will have a good time and these Malay girls learn the most important Cantonese word at the game : "
LeeBin" means over here, "
BeiNgo" means give to me. This helps their future match with you girls.
SPM exams for that year - you will only start to prepare yourself when you will to take yr trail exams. And yr results? Your score will be far far from yr own belief in yr
SPM. Yr
aggregate is 12.. Not in yr wildest dream you can get this score - well, it could be the overall scores for all
SPM students within the nation not that good on that particular year.
You will have ZERO
love life in yr school life no
doubt how badly you dream you will have. It's because you are too UGLY, and too LOUD. Anyway, you are still the same 10 years, or 20 years after that - UGLY & LOUD. I believe this 2 quality never fades over the years..
What do you want to do after Form 5? Year 2007 will be the year whereby George
Soros will do some famous deed causing a downturn of
economy in Malaysia. You really wish you will work in the the
hospitality industry - hotel management or tourism. But with the economy situation back then, doing a business program will be much safer - you will not starve to death....
Later on, you will enrolled to Form 6 in which later you will be accepted into a Polytechnic. Yr 3 years life in polytechnic had been reported in an post last year..
After graduating with yr Diploma from Polytechnic - you will be finally launched into the Slave Market by end of 2001.
After polytechnic - have your mindset changed on what I want to do? :-)
Well, it's seems that it will be a trend for the big companies to hire "Management Trainees" and you will be again very interested to be one. But somehow you will still remains in
Ipoh. In yr mind, you will plan to set off to Singapore, KL or maybe
Penang.. What went wrong, or where went wrong? You
wan to be in the advertising world or maybe
FMGC... These companies are exciting... well.. somewhere,
some when, somehow - something went wrong....
First job after graduation - you will go back to the company where you had undergone yr industrial training, but it will more than a
mth. You will go to this company with a fancy name - New Horizons where you will bear the title of Account Executive.. Wow! Fancy Title but you will need to make 60 cold calls to potential customers in a day. Yellow Pages will be yr best workmate. You will repeat he same thing on the phone with different person over and over again - 60 times a day. Salute to all those True
TeleMarketer.. I will not able to cope it will only last for
merely 3 months.
You will moved to a Chinese owned manufacturing company doing all these plastic packaging materials and you will stay there for almost 3 years, under Production Admin. This will be the place where you will your chance to gang-up with yr colleagues and we have our company trips, long lunch breaks, and our little outings on every Saturday after we are off from work.
Finally, on Jun 2004 - you will make another move to this company where you are still working in right now....
Your taste of men will changed from when you are 16 yrs old and 10 years after :
When you are 16, you wish that he will be like Richard
Gere in Pretty Woman - rich, handsome, charming, ROMANTIC, sexy eyes and the list never ends.
You will have yr 1st bf when you are 20 while still in polytechnic : a
mr smart, confidence & both of you are the same kind of person. But both of you will only be together for 9 months - both of you will broke off on the 2
nd day of
CNY on 2000. Both of you will still be in touch even 10 yrs after that..
You will have yr 2
nd bf when you are 23 : a colleague of yours. He will try his best to accommodate your needs but in return you do not treasure cos you do not want a guy that yes to you all the time. Both of you broke up on the 14
th day of
CNY on 2005. You do not really in touch with him because in your heart, you are guilty!
You will have yr 3rd bf when you are 26 : and ex-colleague & a Mr Snoring Pig who do not have a single romantic bone in his body!
Argh!!! And you are still with him now... from 18 Mar 2006 until today...
AL, SW & KB will named you as CNY Killer : Because you always broke up on CNY, and they will always tease Mr Snoring Pig whenever CNY approaches - Beware of Yr GF. Lucky enough, he is not from Ipoh, & he will be definately away from you on CNY!
These will be the changes you will endure from today (you are 16), until you are 26....
Yours truly,
YY @ 30 yrs old..
muahahahahahah....
Everything so sucks today.. Everything seems to pissed me off today.. Snoring Pig is back to home time to become his sister's chauffeur to the bus station.
