S.I.M.P.L.I.C.I.T.Y

This morning I have been trying so hard into gaining access to my blog, instead that intention had been a continuous failure. Checked out the support forum of my web hosting provider, they were actually updating the servers while transferring all the accounts. So there had been a little distruption back then, so sorry about that.

But at least it is a good thing hearing that my free web hosting provider is doing a good job of updating and actively administrating the servers.

By the way, as requested by Sylvea Chan (in the chatterbox), I did take my time into writing everything about my grandmother’s 90th birthday celebration. While honestly speaking I do not know why does she care to know what’s going on with my family, I could presume that she is becoming a stalker. (Other than that, I think she thought the event was pretty cool itself, perhaps from how I kept mentioning it previously.)

“Wait a second,” you would ask. Basically a stalker does not ask or request from the victim so that he or she could stalk the victim. Weird, but there’s something pretty special about Sylvea Chan herself. She is indeed a stalker who stalk with the permission of the victim being stalked.

Let’s make it into an example of a scenario. Imagine this. Sylvea wants to stalk you. Thus, through any form of communication (online, e-mail, instant messenging, etc.), she would ask you things like, “Can I stalk you?” and related phrases which also translate to wanting to stalk you.

Like my case here, she asked this instead.

i wanna read ur post about ur gran’s birthday!so cool XD

Without a doubt, the above phrase translates similarly to her interest in stalking what I and my family did during my grandmother’s birthday celebration. They are precisely the same thing, just that the above phrase is twisted in a different manner.

Cool?

Back to the choo-choo train, some people may understand my writing style pretty clearly, especially those who have been close to me during school time, or perhaps visiting my blog pretty frequently. Blogging is somewhat a platform for me to express everything I have got to say, well not every single thing.

When writing essays or related matter in school, things are different compared to how I write here. How I write in school homework as well as in examinations largely depend on the contents (and things I manage to think of) and the topics given. Try giving me an unusual topic, I would end up being ’stuck’ while writing the essay. Time is a factor as well, if you ever limit me (say, one hour for an English essay), I might write a lot or the opposite way, depending if I could think of relevant points or not.

This is what happened to me during the previous Malaysian University English Test (MUET) writing paper. The second question, a free essay is indeed a very general and easy topic. I know I can answer the question, because I do know I have the points scattered  in my brain. The main problem is time, while I have sufficiently an hour to complete it, I did not manage to think of anything much about the given topic (despite knowing the fact that I know these things). It was more like my brain was having a glitch or technical error while processing, thus miserably affecting my performance in conveying my points in the essay. The outcome, I wrote two general ideas (which we are supposed to write three), worse still, both the ideas are way too similar and related.

Well, that was my poor performance for MUET last few weeks. Of course, when it comes to casual writing, or given something to be done with (but without time limit, as in homework which I could bring home and think as much as I want), this way I would write so much better than in a situation where I have got to squeeze my brain juice in a limited time frame.

Of course, if you do notice, some of my posts are in fact very lengthy. Without a doubt, that is particularly due to me having too much to say, and wanting to express them all. At the same time, I admit to spending quite an amount of time when composing a long post. Like my previous post on the imperial dinner, I spent more than an hour for that, really.

(Laughing)

Haha. Seriously, I do knot know why do I have the mood to talk about all these in this post. Weird, huh? Indeed.
