The three sieves of Socrates

June 19th, 2008 by bryantung

One day, the old wise Socrates walks down the streets, when all of the sudden a man runs up to him "Socrates I have to tell you something about your friend who…"

"Hold up" Socrates interrupts him "About the story you’re about to tell me, did you put it trough the three sieves?"

"Three sieves?" The man asks "What three sieves?"

"Let’s try it" Socrates says.

"The first sieve is the one of truth, did you examine what you were about to tell me if it is true?" Socrates asks.

"Well no, I just overheard it" The man says.

"Ah, well then you have used the second sieve, the sieve of good?" Socrates asks "Is it something good what you’re about to tell me?"

"Ehm no, on the contrary" the man answers.

"Hmmm" The wise man says "Let’s use the third sieve then, is it necessary to tell me what you’re so exited about?"

"No not necessary" the man says.

"Well" Socrates says with a smile "If the story you’re about to tell me isn’t true, good or necessary, just forget it and don’t bother me with it."

Scoutface - World Scout Network - Online Scout Community

April 19th, 2008 by bryantung

I’ve recently discovered a world scout website, Scoutface Network. The biggest online scout community since Novenber 2007. But I joined it in the day before April’s Fool 2008.

There’s scout from many countries, every contingent from all over the world can meet other scouts online. Isn’t it a great website for all the scouts?

Just joining that online community, I’ve already made a badges exchange with scout from Mexico. I think my delivery will arrive before the end of this April. So excited to have a exchange with scouts from other countries. Mexico, the country just at the back of our country M’sia, a 180° distance from earth! Now starting to make a new deal with scout from Netherlands.

Come join if u are a scout! Making  new friends from all over the world! Meet the bigger scouterhood!

Meeting with HK Scout

December 26th, 2007 by bryantung

I’ve attended a meeting with HK Scout in Kuen Cheng Primary School last Saturday.

That was a very fantastic night! I never thought of meeting them before.

What can I say? They are really professional!

Suddenly I just recalled my life in scouting, nothing more to mesmerize……… That was so sad!

What can I do? Just wish I can turn back time but I can’t. The only thing I can do is do the best to let the other scout to have their best time in scouting!

Doing not fine

November 7th, 2007 by bryantung

I’ve never been through that much ups and downs in a year………

Just a word……..haiz…….

UEC Coming lorr!

October 11th, 2007 by bryantung

Haiz……

Finally, UEC is coming!!!

16 October 2007 to 23 October 2007

I should be studying hard before the UEC but don’t know why I haven’t got the mood to do so……..

Everytime I’ve opened a book I felt that I wanted to sleep liao…….

Haiz…….

How am I gonna to reach my aim of 3As?

When I read through all the books again, I found nothing hard to understand, but when doing the past years papers, ohh! Shit!

Wonder what will be when the time has come……..

Final Year, Final Exam, Final Chance

September 9th, 2007 by bryantung

It’s exam time again, it’s next week!

Oh no! Not ready yet…….

How am I gonna get along this exam?

It’s not the ordinary exam this time.

It’s the last time I have my exam in high school.

It’s the final year to prove myself.

But……. I can’t study!!!

I wanted to, but I can’t!

What should I do?

It’s about my future, what result should I get to apply a university!

I better don’t waive it away……..

Merdeka! Again?

August 31st, 2007 by bryantung

It’s the 50th Merdeka!

It’s the same Merdeka,

but my feeling to it is not the same again.

Usually, I’ll woke up early in the morning just to see the parade through the TV live-casting, but not again this year.

Merdeka countdown?

Oh! Is it still having the meaning to do it?

Never but this time I’ve just slept for waiting the countdown.

I didn’t missed it but just only "countdown",

after that, sleep……..

I won’t do that except this year.

I’m questioning myself, is it still meaningful celebrating Merdeka countdown?

Seems like it’s just being commercialize. Do you think so?

May be it’s the matter of age that I’ve thought all that, never before.

Get Stuck

July 23rd, 2007 by bryantung

I’m stuck in a very down mood for a week.

My family don’t know it coz I never plan to tell them……..

Maybe I should tell them coz they are my family?

I don’t think so…….

They can’t help me to solve my problem and I never want them to worry.(If they would worry about my mood)

So I choose to show my mood just in the school.

My friend just don’t get an idea on what I’m doing when I’m really silence and can make a smile on my face.

Am I really that scary when I don’t smile?

But now I’m better, not because I’ve solve my problem, it’s just because I know my friends care about me.

I never knew it before, that they care about me soooooo much!

So now I’ll smile out wide!!!!

(Till the next time larr…….)

Half Year Past

June 24th, 2007 by bryantung

It’s now in the end of June. That’s mean half year is past in 2007.

Haiz……       Another half year, I’ll be graduated from high school.

I’m kind of don’t like the feeling of being graduate from high school, coz in this high school life, very enjoyable, exicited!

But anywhere, I’ll be graduate sooner or later. That’s the fact……

Finally Finished

June 16th, 2007 by bryantung

The First 9 Perak Independence School Soccer Competition had finally finished today.

My role in this competition is representing my school’s team as a SUBSTITUTE!-_-"

But my school failed to enter the Semi-final coz we have lost in the last game versus Poi Lam High School.

Haiz……..

I really regret joining in the school’s team, coz I’m really bad in soccer. I knew I couldn’t contribute to any of the race, but I thought I can give myself a chance to try.

Sometime it doesn’t like the way you think, maybe you can give yourself a chance to prove, but it doesn’t mean you can face it with courage.

As our school’s team won the first two races, I really feel nothing but very confuse.

Am I right to join? I’ve try to cheat myself that being a substitute isn’t anything. But it’s really upset that if I doesn’t contribute anything and our team wins.

I’m just like joining team just for sharing the pride.

I think I don’t have the right to do it because it’s not my field in soccer. In short words–厚脸皮.

But everything is over now, I think this should be my lesson for the rest of my life time.
