TWCS @ KL Hilton
Okay so about 10 days ago, I attended the Taylor’s World Class Scholarship award ceremony at the KL Hilton Hotel. We were supposed to be there at 7:00A.M for the briefing…but you know lah Malaysian timing system. *rolls eyes*
Anyway, we were sitting down waiting for the event to start when suddenly this tall guy all dressed in black appeared a few steps in front of where I was sitting. From the back I could tell he was partly white and definitely hot. Then finally he turned around and OMG! It’s Will Quah! If you don’t know who Will Quah is here’s a picture of him:
I used to see him on NTV7 as a news anchor, he was also in the TV ads for Brand’s Essence of Chicken and lots more. But anyway, he was the emcee for the TWCS award ceremony! I wonder how much Taylor’s paid him to come.
The way he talked was so good, like when he was reading my (and others) achievements, he made it sound like we’re THAT great. Lol yeah.
Mmm so like most occasions and events, I always always ALWAYS look forward to the food being served. =D
Especially DESSERTS. Yum.
I loved the drinks they made. It was some pineapple punch thingy. Tasted sweet and sugary although Kenneth didn’t like it. Haha.
Four of us who got the scholarship under Taylor’s College School of Communication.
Didi and I are under the advertising company Universal McCann while both Kenneth and Nicole are under Arc Worldwide.
Hmm 2 days after the ceremony Taylor’s made their first phone call to me asking me to help out during Campus Day. How fast eh, hehe. But at least I’ll get paid. =D
Past. Present. Future.
I let my mind take a little stroll down the memory lane. Not too far away, just a few years back. Things were so different back then. So different that they showed no clues nor signs that the present would be painted this way.
Some things I wish I never did so, but if I did not, I wouldn’t have what I have now. I wouldn’t have met the people I know now. But if things were different then I would not lose the people I knew back then.
I guess right now I’m feeling a mixture of gratefulness and regret. Grateful for what I have today, regretful for what I have lost.
There is a saying…
"Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment."
My present. Teddy. College. Scholarship. Oakey.
My past. Disfigured. Blurry. Dark. Uncertainty.
Clearly, the present is much better. I have everything I ever wanted now. So why the desire to wander down the memory lane?
Another saying…
"The past is behind, learn from it. The future is ahead, prepare for it. The present is here, live it."
So I should cast the past aside, cling on to the present and be ready for the future.
What is the future? At the moment, it is pitch black. Light shall shed bit by bit and more of the future shall be revealed. But when does it stop? It is a perpetual process. Never stopping to wait for you to catch up. Yes, I should prepare for it.
Hence, goodbye Past! Hi Present! I’ll be looking forward to seeing you Future!

Now that was a weird post eh? Reading it now, I think it’s a little bit odd but still okay I suppose.
Mmm it’s late here. I promised Teddie I’ll be going to bed already. He’s waiting for me to join him…well in Dreamland. Lol.
Goodnites.
