Searching for?

12 December 2006

Hello!

This blog is pretty much dead from what it seems =s Keep it burning, keep it going!

Anyway, here are some reminders for the Sec3s!

Those who did not go for the gala dinner thing, remember that there's the heritage trail competition this Friday(15th) from 8.30am-1.00pm, be in coy tee and track pants and assemble at Zhong Hwa Secondary School's foyer promptly. Remember to bring some papers and pens to take down things so as to make the heritage badge project easier (: remember that the deadline for the heritage badge project is on the day when we go back for orientation preparation (details not up yet)!

And remember there is the kayaking initiative on 18th! Details not done yet, will ask Grace about it! Remember that on that day, everyone has got to hand in their ATC reflection form, ATC reflection for respective I/Cs, NYAA reflection form and for those in Camp Challenge, the Camp Challenge reflection that Mrs Chin wants! Remember to bring extra clothings because of the dinner with guiders after kayaking! Details will be posted at a later time (:

Guess everyone's been too caught up in their world during this holiday! Hope everyone will have a meaningful holiday spent because when school reopens, it is back to stress, homework, endless amounts of tests and exams! And for the Sec4s next year who are going to take O level, THEIR O LEVEL!

Have fun during this holiday everyone!

An advanced Merry X'mas and a happy new year! May everyone enjoy during this festive season!

Let me end off with a story(:

THE MAN WHO WILLED HIMSELF TO DIE

There was a man who worked for the railroad. One day as
he went into the freezer compartment to do his routine
work, the door accidentally closed and he found himself
trapped in the compartment. He shouted for help but no
one heard him since it was past midnight. He tried to
break down the door but he could not. As he lay in the
freezer compartment, he began to feel colder, and
colder. Then he began to feel weaker, and weaker, and
he wrote on the wall of the compartment, “I am feeling
colder, and colder; and I am getting weaker, and
weaker. I am dying, and this may be my last words”. In
the morning when the other workers opened up the
compartment they found him dead. The sad twist to the
above story is that the freezing apparatus in the
compartment had broke down a few days earlier. The poor
worker did not know about the damaged freezing
apparatus and in his mind the freezing apparatus was
working perfectly. He felt cold, got weaker and
literally willed himself to die.

SUCCESS PRINCIPLES

Our sub-conscious mind can be cheated. The
sub-conscious mind can only accept and act on
information passed to it by the conscious mind. It has
no capacity to reject or decline any instructions or
information passed to it by the conscious mind. In the
case of the poor worker, he consciously thought that he
was getting colder, weaker and dying and the
sub-conscious mind accepted the above instructions and
affected his physical body. That was how he willed
himself to die.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE

"Every now and then go away, have a little relaxation,
for when you come back to your work your judgment will
be surer. Go some distance away because then the work
appears smaller and more of it can be taken in at a
glance and a lack of harmony and proportion is more
readily seen."
