7th Malaysian Student Leaders Summit (MSLS) 2013

Talk about a busy life. Only after TWO months I have time to write this. Anyways, here we go;

On that note, let me start with the trip to Intercontinental Hotel in Kuala Lumpur on 24th and 25th of August. I got there with 11 other colleagues from KMB. We all finally made the decision to go together by van a few days before the event. Thank god. Lol. So that's the transportation. The trip was about an hour.

Upon arrival, we were greeted by the doormen that guarded the entrance and probably even the F1 car in the lobby. maybe.... maybe.... The event was on the second floor, so obviously that was where we were headed. Because I got there at 8 am on the dot, I went to register at the registration counter that just opened. After getting myself the 'frontest' row seat for the participants, (the first 3 rows were for the press) I headed back out the hall for the FREE FOOD! Who would say no to that. Haha. 

After gorging on that, I headed back to the hall and read the fact sheets provider like the nerd that I am -when in reality I have no idea about nor prior knowledge about the topics; politics, economy and stuff. (See, I don't even know how to categorise the topics) Anyways, for most of the politics part I had to ask my friends at my side.

So the event started of with the key note speech, then the forum we all waited for, topic was something about government protecting proton as the national brand with taxes on imported cars. I would really like to give detailed info about this, but I lost the booklet given an notes were left at college. Nice~ =.= there were a few more forums by different speakers later that later got me more interested in Malaysia's (ridiculous) politics and economy. After the forums there was a group discussion (groups are a few rows of the same column) After all that, the clock showed 5.30pm. Marking the end of day 1. Don't worry dear food lovers, lunch provided were delish and breaks were sufficient for Muslims-like me! :)

Day 2

Since this day, departure was a bit early, arrival was also early. So, I had free breakfast! :) and for some reason that day, I sat at the exact same seat I did the day before. Heheh.

The tentative was about the same as the previous day, but the topics and speakers were different - obviously. More politicians and amazing people came down. Those included Khairy Jamaluddin, Nurul Izzah, And Tony Fernandes to name a few. Tony came to the hall and made the crowd go wild with the word "One person that has something red on them, come to the stage right now to get a free ticket". It took me a few seconds to register those words, and by the time that happened, two people already got up there. Well, they both got the tickets to anywhere they wanted. Speaking about tickets, he gave out a few more during the Q&A session. Talk about a generous man. Enough with the tickets, anyways, his speech consisted of his life story, motivation and how he got Air Asia for 1 ringgit.

Initially, the Prime Minister was supposed to come for the closing speech, but then KJ came as a replacement. Most of the girls the girls seemed fine with the turn of events, -you know why... I for one did not complain for the those reasons, I just didn't care enough. -oops. Hahaha. Well, after that the group discussion went on as usual (or was it before the closing speech, can't remember). When all was done, back to KMB we all did, exhausted and all.

Aaahhh, here's something I forgot to mention; The Twitter Competition.

There was a twitter competition where the rules keep changing constantly until the winner announcements. At the beginning, winner is the one that tweets (mention and hashtag) the most. Suddenly, on the second day, there are 3 categories. I.e., 'The most tweets' , 'The most popular tweet' , and 'The most creative tweet'. The winners get, a Samsung Galaxy Tablet, an iPad Mini, and an iPod touch respectively. I was in the running to win the most tweets, whereby I had 320 tweets by noon of day 2. This put me in first place. The second was not really that far behind. At the time of that announcement, I was sentenced to tweet limit for about half an hour. Lol. However, by the end of the competition, I ran out of battery. Yep, you guessed it, caused me a lot of tweets which led to my loss to second place. The gap was only 20 tweets, FYI. I didn't take it too hard, maybe it wasn't even mine in the first place, hence the obstacles. However, that experience put me on a twitter hybernation, as I did not feel like tweeting for a while. Haha.

 All in all, it was AWESOME! I would go again next year if given the chance and time. :)

Thanks for reading, have a nice day ^^

I am now an IB student in KMB!

I should have updated this earlier, but having passed SPM relatively well, I am offered by mara a scholarship here in Kolej Mara Banting (KMB). And for my degree, if things go well, off to UK. Yeay! My dream!

Of course, knowing myself, I didn't even update about the fact that I was a Universiti Teknologi Petronas (UTP) student for one semester taking foundation in engineering under the course "Electrical and Electronic". The funny thing about this is that the engineering students (like me) who don't pass the sponsors requirements normally end up there. No joke. This is mainly because by taking IB, we are not allowed to enrol into IPTA's. Yeah, UTP is a prestigious private university.

So back to my story about enrolling in KMB, my registration here was on the 2nd of July. Prior to choosing this path of education, my mother did ask for my choice in university. Either UTP or KMB. It was a pretty hard decision because, people keep on telling me that IB is a very hard diploma program, even harder than A-levels they say. But this didn't demotivate me, quite the opposite. One of the reasons I chose IB, was because of the challenge. So here I am, trying desperately to make homework deadlines meet. LOL. I asked for it.

That's the end of this post, write again later about my experience at The 7th Malaysian Student Leaders Summit by UKEC at Intercontinental Hotel, Kuala Lumpur. I met loads of people. :)

Keeping in touch

     This is a topic that would relate to most people, with social circles that is (no offense). We would ask our friends from the same schools or from anywhere to keep in touch, but in the end become complete strangers due to all the changes that has occurred to both parties. Keeping in touch requires more effort than actually making friends in the first place. some of the reasons of loosing contact is the lack of free time or lack of interest at that. We should be grateful that we live in this era of technology compared to the years before that we had to send letters and wait weeks for a reply. Today, thats far from us. Now we can even chat with a person on the other side of the world in mere seconds. But why is keeping in touch still so hard at times?

     I thought this would be a good topic to write about on account that high schools over and also the fact that I had 3 high schools in my lifetime. Some might think that its fun to live life like this, lots of friends that is. But the truth is for me its hard because people would remember me, but i would have a hard time putting a name to the face (btw, I'm a person that remembers faces and not names). so when they do add me on Facebook or see me on the streets, there's the inevitable awkward moment that I'd be like "who are you again?". It gets even worse when they mention the numerous activities we went through (i'm such a bad friend). But thank god I figured out who they were soon through some social network before I went crazy. or maybe thats just me. The main thing is, if I somehow kept in touch, it would have been easier to remember the names.

     I do wish I kept in touch with friends from the various educational institutions I've been to, but to think about it, it must have been a lot of work. But would ultimately be worth it though. My actual main point is that keeping in touch is a choice that is made either realizing it or not. Though fate has its control in it too, but with effort anything can happen and overcome. Yeah, maybe you guys live in the same neighborhood, how could we loose contact. but that happens, even neighbors. So think about that, friends are the people that make life both a challenge and smooth sailing. They color  your life, no? regardless though what shade, dark or bright. Here to i want to apologize to those that have become or going to be a nameless close friend to me due to my memory problem thing. Always remember though that I cherish all of you, even if I don't remember your names at times - hehe

P/s: A moment I remember is that on the first day of school in my last high school, I met this girl or remeet at that moment as I've seen her face before from my first high school before. we just ended up with a "Oh, hi" before going back to whatever we were doing. That night we relearnt each others name. it was hilarious. ^^

A days adventure =)

     What a buzy3 day... went to make a passport this morning, and it took a grand total of 5 hours to get it all done! and the minute I got my passport number, not even half an hour later, mom booked my trip to KOREA in the mid of this year. well going with the school, but still... Im going traveling out of Malaysia. not that Im that exited to go to Korea, I just wanted to feel the different in environment there...

     Lets see, imigresen in Seri Rampai was so long, like from one corner shop lot to the other, I didnt want to know any beyond that. So, me and dad went elsewhere, the one in Damansara was taken over, so we had to look for its new location in Jalan Duta. Well, that took awhile to find. once we did find the new complex, it was also flooded with people wanting to either make or do something with their passport. The queue was practically around the complex (from inside of course), but it was air conditioned, so we waited for about 1 and a half hour for the NUMBER. By then it was already 12 PM, we went out to do the passport from around 9 AM.

     Long story short, after the next 2 and a half hours, we got my passport for korea. so, im gonna leave my footprint in Korea then, insya-Allah 


    That was during the day, at night before going for dinner, had to go look for the DBKL in Jinjang coz my moms car got towed. It took awhile as directions were difficult. but yes, we found it in the end, Alhamdulillah.

well that was my adventure for today, hoping for a better tomorrow =)

Regrets and a new hope

     Its hard to say that you dont have regrets in your life, either its choosing a pair of pants that you end up not liking or a decision that would or have changed your life.


     First, I wanna say a decision I made not long ago that I regret, and that is letting someone I care deeply go for a reason I might never understand myself. mayb it was the commitment? as I said, countless times to myself, Why Did You Do That!?!? You know you are gonna regret it!, but no, I didnt listen to myself. was there a real reason? hmmm... (speechless)
     You know how some people make a list of criteria of what they want in their partner, well I tried but it was personally rediculous and just too short coz I didnt want to put my expectations that high, so, im never gonna do that again, Thus I put it aside in my head. But when he came along, he didnt fit the list, he created it with his silliness, likes and dislikes, insanity (moderate) and in short, everything else (too much, dont know where to start). When I think about it, I dont know which is worse, loosing a person that is close to me or know that they can just find another. sometimes I wish I could take my words back and live happier today, or would I?. well, I would write more about this,but I always did suck with expressing my emotions into words.  *well, i'll stop about this here coz its past 10 and almost 11, gotta make it quick...


     Now, forget about the stupid decisions I made, because its useless to dwell upon regrets and past actions. So, i will roughly say what i want to do and hope for in the future, insya-Allah.


• By the age of 20:

• be able too cook
• have a car license
• studying a course that i would have chosen by then, most probably science fields

• afterwords.... (10 years tops)

• have a degree worthy job
• get married?

well thats not much really, I just started thinking about it, as we all know,

Kita merancang, Allah menentukan

so, well just have to try, then wait and see what the future holds..

To a wonderful December and New Year

December has finally arrived. It feels like January was just yesterday. How time passes by, huh? form four felt so short, next year already form five and SPM wont be far from that. Even though the year felt short, but a lot of sugary sweet memories exist in it. But the sweetest of the memories I must say is being in 4 Cattleya '11 or a 'Catty meow-meow'? haha.. momories..

As sweet as it all is, it wasn't easy especially being the assistant monitor. But in the end things went well, right? Anyway, i just feel like i want to say something about all of these wonderful people. They might not be perfect, but their AWESOME. hmm.. who shall I start with? Oh, I know...

well thats one of many secrets of 4 cattleya. to keep it a secret or not is our choice individually really. I guess you've noticed I didnt really write alot of our memories together. I have only explaination to that, and that is because

"They were so awesome that i cant even begin to describe them in words"

Last words till new classes, except for aina, i was cursed to see you in the same class next year.. hahha.

Two Young Souls: Chapter 8

"Creek~" Shelly opens the door slowly.

"Bam!" accidentally bangs the door.

"Nice of you to finally join us, Shelly" Mr. Emmers says after realising Shelly walking in.

"You look mad.. Okay, I'm a minute late, are you gonna convict for that?" Shelly says at a loud enough tone of voice.

"Class, didn't I tell you all that I dont care how late you are, all that matters is that you are" Mr, Emmers replies. Shelly responds by signaling the class 2 say 'no' while the teachers not looking. She does this by putting her hands together in a way while shaking her head side to side. At last, the class responds by bickering negative responses like, no, I don't remember you saying that, no you didn't and so on.

"Oh, I haven't? Well, okay then, Shelly , I'm gonna let you off with a warning. Don't be late again, now go take a seat." Mr. Emmers warns Shelly again.

"Fuh~" Shelly says silently. As Shelly walks to her desk

Last day at Kumon

so yesterday was the last day of trying to complete Kumon..

6 years of effort just flew away..

*sigh*

there was no avoiding it

i know how beneficial it it, but

it cant b beneficial if u dont do the work

being in boarding school strips me off all of my spare time.. even if i had time

homeworkhomeworkhomeworkhomeworkhomework

what hit me was...

when i called my mom 2 go home,

her caller ring tone hit me hard

i never thought leaving kumon would effect me

apparently it did

the caller ring tone sang

"... those were the best days of my life..."

at that moment i remembered the days i refused 2 go to kumon

and now that i dont have to... *sigh* 

its true, we dont know what we have until we lose it. or in my case let it go.

Two Young Souls: Chapter 7

"Sammy! Why are you not up yet?! It's 6:45 already, your supposed to be at school by 7:15!" Sammy's mom said after seeing Sammy still lying on his bed.

"Uuhhh.... 5 more minutes~" said sammy slumberly.

"No! You said that half an hour ago!" Sammy's mom replied.

"Uhhh~" was all Sammy said.

"WAKE UP!!" she said then sprinkled some water on Sammy's face.

"Okay, okay, I'm up. Could you mind?" Sammy finally sat up. Seeing his mom still there, he sent a telepathic message to her saying 'Out'.

"Quick!" his mom responded.

~~~~~~ 15 minutes later ~~~~~~

"SAMMY!! I'M LATE! WHERE THE HECK ARE YOU!!" Sandra screamed as she runs upstairs and raids the bathroom to discover it being empty. Then she checks Sammy's room, also empty. Suddenly...

"Sandra! Where are you~? I thought you were late?" Sammy said sarcastically.

"Whaaa~! How'd he do that?" Sandra whispered to herself as she runs downstairs into Sammy's car.

"Hahaha~ mission annoy Sandra, complete!" Sammy said to himself.

After sending Sandra to her school, Sammy drives to Crystal High where he studies, and it was already 7.15 AM. Late again~...

"Sammy, whazzup. Late again I presume? Haha... Sammy, Sammy, Sammy... Its only been a week since you moved here." said Martin the Prefect while writing a demerit for Sammy.

"Well, you know how I do" Sammy replied like he has no care in the world.

"Yeah, whatever, go on, get. Before the assembly starts." said Martin to Sammy as he sees a teacher walking by.

"Okay, see ya later Martin" Sammy said quickly then went on his way.

~~~~~~ after the assembly ~~~~~~

"Jess, is that Sammy?" asked Alex to Jessica.

"OMG! It is! Shelly! Shelly! LOOK!" Jessica told Shelly.

"WHAT!!" Shelly got annoyed.

"There" Jessica pointed to Sammy.

"Sammy? What's he doing here?" Shelly said.

"I don't know. Go  ask-" Jessica tried to answer Shelly's rhetorical question then was shot down when Shelly went straight to Sammy.

"Hey Sammy, I didn't know you go here" Shelly wondered curiously.

"Well, I just moved here a week ago. I didn't see u the whole time i was here" Sammy answered.

"Oh, I was on a holiday with my parents" Shelly said slowly.

"I see, how was it?" Sammy questioned curiously.

"It was awesome. Sorry, I have to go to class now, don't wanna be late, bye!" Shelly answered quickly after glancing her watch.

"Owh, okay. Have fun in class then. See you later?" Sammy asked.

"Yah, see you at lunch?" Shelly answered clutching her backpack at her chest tightly.

"Sure, I'll meet you there" Sammy replied happily.

"Okay, bye" Shelly once again said in a hurry.

"Bye" Sammy exclaimed while waving, but Shelly was well on her way to class. Before she disappeared into the crowd of people, he saw her glance her watch again.

"Ahh, what a punctual girl" Sammy chuckled after saying that, then went to his class. Which is opposite the direction Shelly went.

Two Young Souls: Chapter 6

A Nice Sunday....


"Sammy! Hurry up! Your gonna be late for your first class here" Sammy's mom yelled at Sammy who was still getting ready for his class upstairs.


"I'm coming, I'm coming, shiesh, never let a guy chill huh..." Sammy replied his moms call.


"Well you can chill when you get there, quick, times a wastin'' Sammy's mom continued to yell.


"I cant chill when I get there, when I get there the class will start" said Sammy trying to correct his mom.


"Don't you back sass me, I'm your mother!" Sammy's mom got mad.


"Sorry mom~" Sammy appologised.


"I forgive you, now you get down here this instant!" his mom said.


"But I look ridiculous" said Sammy slowly while walking down the stairs.


"No you don't" she said after hearing Sammy's comment on his old taekwondo uniform.


Suddenly Sandra came walking out of the kitchen with chips in her hands. She looked up and saw her brother in the uniform. First she revealed a grin that gets wider and wider till she grins from ear to ear. Then she started to giggle then finally laughs aloud. Her mom heard her.


"Sandra! What's so funny?" her mom asked after hearing Sandra's reaction to the attire.


"Sammy" Sandra replied then continues to laugh like crazy.


"See I told you mom!" Sammy said then tried to walk back sulking.


"You come back here and start driving to class" Sammy's mom said to him before he could go any further upstairs.


"And Sandra, do you want me to send you to taekwondo too?" she continued.


"Nooo~!" Sandra yelled in disapproval


"Okay, now you go to your room, and Sammy, Sammy? I guess he went already.. Why are you still here?" Sandra's mom said to Sandra.


"I'm going, I'm going.. sheish!" Sandra replied in frustration.


~~~~~~At the gym where Taekwondo class is held~~~~~~


"Good Morning, Sir" the class said to the instructor then bowed.


"Yes, Good Morning, class" the instructor replied.


"Everyone follow me" he continued. When he was just about to start running, someone approached him.


"Good Morning, Sir. Sorry I'm late." Sammy said to the sir and bowed.


"Okay, follow me" replied the sir.


'Hmm.. she looks familiar' this popped in Sammy's head while running in the gym as told by the instructor. After the running, jogging and some stretching exercises...


"Okay, everyone get in pairs" the sir said after finishing the run exercises.


"Sammy, you will be doing this exercise with Shelly since her usual partner, David, is absent today" he continued after checking everyone and saw Sammy with no partner.


"Its you?!" said Sammy and Shelly simultaneously.


"Get ready for free sparring" the sir said, then a row of black belts appear to assist the instructor for the sparring...


"Wow, everything is so well organised here, unlike my old class..." Sammy thought to himself while putting on the paddings given to him. 


"Ready!" the sir said informing everyone to be prepared.


"Set!" then all the students got to the right stances for sparring.


"Go!" with that, Sammy and Shelly started to kick each others butts. The first kick came from Sammy, but Shelly blocked with a lower block. Then she continues with a turning kick, almost hits Sammy, when he dodges it by sliding back then continues to do a side kick and hits her leg, where Sammy did not intend to hit just proves how rusty he is in taekwondo. Shelly respons by kicking him at the leg also, 'just for kicks'. Not long after, the sir blowed the whistle to stop everyone. The lesson continued with everyone in rows.


"Everyone take five" sir said after seeing that some ware gasping for air.


"Hi, Sammy,rite?" Shelly started the conversation then took a sip of water from her pink bottle.


"Hi Shelly. Yup, its Sammy" Sammy responded then took his green bottle and took a huge gulp of water.


"You didn't tell me you took Taekwondo" Shelly asked.


"Well, you didn't ask.." Sammy answered in a sarcastic-tone.


"Pfft~, so what belt are you?" Shelly continued her questioning.


"Red one. You?" Sammy responded.


"Red two. I'm on a higher level. Yay!" gloated Shelly.


"Not for long~!" Sammy exclaimed.


"You know, if you go for grading, I'm going too" Shelly said while rolling her eyes.


"Your gonna be ready for a black belt in two weeks?" Sammy said also rolling his eyes.


"TWO WEEKS!! HOW DID YOU KNOW?!?" Shelly said suddenly interested.


"Like I said before, unlike you, I asked the sir" Sammy responded, still being sarcastic.


"Dude! Do you have to be sarcastic all the time?" Said Shelly.


"FOREVER!! Its my hobby, F.Y.I." Sammy replied stressing the 'F.Y.I.'.

"Did I ask?" Shelly tried being sarcastic.


"You didn't have to. I can tell your dying to know, because I'm psychic" Sammy said raising his eyebrows.


"Sure ya are..." Shelly said while pushing Sammy away in a friendly way.


"Five minutes are up. Everyone line up accordingly" the instructor said looking at his watch.


The class continued........

Two Young Souls: Chapter 5

The Party

"Vroom..." a subtle sound of a car stopping in front of Shelly's house. It's Alex, Jessica, and Siera car pooling. Yay! save the environment.

"Right on time.." whispered Shelly quietly while walking out the door to greet her guests.

"For what? Why are your friends dressed nicely?" her mom said after coming out of the blue.

"Omg!!" screamed Shelly's thoughts.

"Hi, Mrs. Green, we just came from the mall where Shelly didn't wanna follow." Alex said as a cover up of their unusual attire.

"Isn't it late?" Mrs. Green wondered.

"The mall won't close till 10 o'clock" Jessica said sounding like a big know-it-all.

"Okay~" said Mrs. Green rolling her eyes over to Shelly.

"Having a sleepover, honey?"Mrs. Green asked Shelly.

"Uhhh, yeah-yeah, a sleepover..." Shelly replied bluntly.

"Okay, I'm gonna go now, meeting at 8 o'clock. Don't wanna be late. Toodles, have fun~" Mrs. Green said to all to all of them and kissed Shelly's forehead. Then, went on her way.

"Owh, we will alright..." said Shelly slowly while waving good bye to her mom. When the coast was clear, they all ran inside to the kitchen to prepare the food which include sandwiches, tacos and chips. and for beverages, punch. They decided not to put decorations because if Shelly's mom came back, they won't have to worry bout her being suspicious about the house later. That only took them half an hour to prepare. Right as they were done, the doorbell rang.

"Ding dong.." sound of the doorbell ringing. Shelly opened the door and saw David out the door, so she invited him in with no hesitation.

"Awh~ he came." said Shelly to her friends while looking at David. Then he looked at Shelly's way. She was just about to talk to him when a girl that goes by the name of Danielle walked in the door beside   her. David was actually looking at Danielle. Danielle went straight to David to have a chat.

"Ugh! who invited her.." Shelly said in frustration. Suddenly, Jessica raised her hands slowly.

"HOW COULD YOU!! you know i like him. I"M GONNA KILL YOU!!" Shelly then reaches out for Jessica's neck when she was stopped by Siera and Alex.

"I'm sorry!! I-I-I got c-c-carried away" Jessica tried to explain herself.

"Your dead Jess!!" Shelly tried to strangle Jessica again when the doorbell rang.

"Fuh~ saved by the bell" sighed Jessica in relief. Then Shelly opened the door allowing groups of friends to enter. Which include Siera's boyfriends which is Adam. Thus, Siera rushed to her boyfriend not caring about her BFFs.

"There she goes" said Alex. When suddenly a new familiar face came through the door. Its Sammy!!

"Hi there" said Sammy to Shelly, Alex and Jessica.

"Hey~" they all replied simultaneously after looking at Sammy all dressed up. then Sammy walked to the snack table to get something to munch on.

"Omg! he's hot~!" Jessica blurted.

"I know right, Shelly? Shelly??" Alex said to Shelly who apparently was long gone walking to Sammy.

"What now..." said Alex.

"Partay!!" a random voice popped overcoming the loud music. Meanwhile,

"So, you come here often?" said Shelly being sarcastic.

"Well, I don't think so~ " replied Sammy smiling indicating he knows Shelly was being sarcastic.

From there Sammy and Shelly became good friends. Really good friends. When suddenly, out of the blue, Alex came with a phone in her hands yelling.

"SHELLY!! Its your mom! Thank god for caller ID" said Alex in a panicked state.

"Everybody QUIET!!" screamed Shelly at the top of her lungs.

"Hello mom, what's up?" said Shelly answering the phone.

"Hi honey, I'm just calling to say that I'm almost home" Shelly's mother replied.

"How much longer are you gonna take?" Shelly asked quickly.

"Oh, just 10 more minutes. The house better be tidy when i get there..." warned Mrs. Green

"Okay mom. Bye~" Shelly said and quickly hung up.

"Sorry people, but, the party's over. Everybody, please get out now!!"

"Awh man...""Shoot""Dang, just bout to get it on." the sound of the guests bickering.

"Enough!! Please exit the door in an orderly fashion" said Shelly to all the guests.

"Alex, Siera, Jessica! You come back here!!" yelled Shelly after spotting her so-called-BFFs trying to make a run for it.

"Its a SLEEPOVER isn't it! plus, you guys promised to help me clean up, remember!!" said Shelly to her friends reminding them of their promise before.

"I never should have promised... note to self: never make promises, EVER!" Siera said in grief.

"Too late, you already did. Lets clean this up quick then change to pj's, you guys brought them rite?" asked Shelly to all of them.

"Oh no~ I forgot!! I gotta go get them now!!" Siera said trying to get out of her 'commitment'

"Don't be silly, I saw you put them in your bag earlier.. Ops~" said Jessica accidentally blowing Siera's cover.

"Jess!" Siera yelled at Jessica, as ussual. Then Shelly looked at Siera angrily.

"Busted!!" Jessica blurted loudly

"Hey! Wanna get in trouble?!" Alex said knocking some sense to all of them.

With that they all shook their heads.

"Then lets get this house clean now!!" Alex continued then flicked her finger together and pointing at the mess their gonna have to clean.

When Alex did her trademark move, they started to clean in 'lightning speed'. Soon they were done. so, they rushed upstairs to change. While they were running up the stairs, they heard a car engine stopping at the porch. It was Mrs. Green!! RUN!! They quickly changed to pajamas. During the 'pajamasation' Mrs. Green called upon Shelly. She knocked the door.

"Shelly" said Shelly's mom.

"Shelly? You in there?" she repeated after getting no reply. So, she opened the door.

"Oh, Hi mom! What's up?" said Shelly trying to be cool.

"Hi darling, just checking up on you guys" said Mrs. Green while looking around for anything suspicious.

"Okay~ bye~" Shelly said in a go-away tone.

"Bye, have fun!" Shelly's mom said going away. Then she closes the door. Then, there's a few moments of silence.

"Fuh, that was to close for comfort" Alex said breaking the silence.

"You got that right!" said Jessica relieved.

"Okay, back to business~ how was the party...." Siera started the gossiping. They gossiped all night long till they soon fell asleep.

Party Preparations

"Oh my GOSH!! The party! I'm host, and I didn't even invite the rest yet... didn't even start on the preparations yet. Quick, gotta go home!" Shelly says to herself in distress.

"Alex, we gotta hurry" whispered Shelly to Alex.

"Your right Shelly, its 9:30 already" Alex whispers back to Shelly. Then she tells the others, Siera and Jessica over their situation.

"Let's get a move on! or else the party won't happen!" Jessica freaking out.

"Jess, seriously, just chill will yah..." exclaimed Siera.

"Sammy, Sandra. We gotta go. Bye." said Shelly to Sammy and Sandra outside the cafe before leaving.

"Bye-bye!" said the rest.

"Bye-bye!" Answered Sammy and Sandra while waving to them.

~~~~~~Sammy's trip home~~~~~~

"Sammy that was fun, wasn't it?" proclaimed Sandra in the car on the way home.

"Yeah, sure." replied Sammy.

Then, throughout the rest of the trip, there was only the sound of the radio and the sound or the tires rolling on the tar road. Soon, they reached home.

"Sammy! What took you so long just to get groceries. Don't you know that Sandra has not eaten yet. Or did you forget about her gastric problem!?!" yelled Mrs. Danvers, Sammy's mom, to Sammy in rage.

"Mom, you can relax now, we ate breakfast at a cafe there when I heard Sandra's tummy rumble. Now we're full, rite Sandra?" said Sammy to his mom to calm her down while rubbing his belly.

"Yeah, it was great, yumms.."said Sandra, approving the statement by Sammy.

"Okay, okay *breathes in relief* wait, but where you get the money?" said their mom wondering because she only gave enough money for groceries.

"Ummm... acc..." Sammy was about to explain the source of 'income' when his mom cut in.

"Never mind, as long as you've all eaten, its fine by me." said Mrs. Danvers not wanting to worry anymore. Then, she sped off to do house work.

"fuhh... what a relief.." whispered Sammy to himself.

 ~~~~~~Shelly's preparations~~~~~~

"Guys, lets walk to my house, I know a shortcut"

"Okay, we'd better hurry if we want people to come"

"Follow me~"

"Wait! What am I gonna where at the party?"

"The sooner we get to Shelly's house, the sooner you can think of what to wear, got it!"

"Fine.."

They all walk quickly leaving Jessica and her high heeled boots a bit behind. When they reached Shelly's house, they quietly sneaked in Shelly's room trying to avoid her mom from seeing them. Once they got into Shelly's room, they started calling everyone to invite them all to the party. The invites were all spread out by noon. Yes, they invited that many people. When that was done, the rest went back home to get themselves ready for the party. the happiest was obviously Jessica, who was complaining non-stop about what to wear. They all promised to come back to Shelly's at 7:30, which is  half an hour before the party.

Two Young Souls: Chapter 3

The Encounter

Both, Sammy and Shelly have a crisis. Sammy's dead if he doesn't come home with his sister, Sandra. Shelly's in DEEP trouble when the guardian of the little girl comes along. OMG!!

**********Sammy's Story**********

"SANDRA!!, WHERE ARE YOU!!" Sammy yelled in frustration while running from isle to isle. When he had a sudden realization that Sandra wanted chocolate, so, he quickly located the chocolate isle, and ran full speed towards it, hitting all in his way.

*hit* "Hey, watch where your going!" said a stranger.

"Sorry!!" said Sammy then and every time he hit a person.

At one point along the way, he started to hear crying. And with that, he started to yell out Sandra's name again.

"Sandra!! I'm coming!" The closer he got to his destination, the louder the crying became. Finally, he reached the isle and saw little Sandra on the floor.

"Oh, no! What happened?" (Sammy's inner monolog)

**********Shelly's Story**********

"Little girl, what's your name? Can you stand up, if you can, please do..." said Shelly to the little girl but she doesn't seem to reply any of the questions Shelly throws at her. Her only response was endless loud crying. Despite the loud crying, Shelly continues to try and cheer her up. Her persistence came to a halt when she heard yelling of the name 'Sandra'.

"Oooo~ your in big trouble now!" Jessica pointing out the obvious.

"Jess!!" said all the rest, Siera, Alex and Shelly at the same time.

"What? well you are.."Jessica said in a lower tone of voice.

"Duhh~" said Shelly, annoyingly. Then they all looked away searching for the origin of the yelling. The voice got louder and louder by the second. Until a tall guy appears at the far end of the isle, standing there appalled to see what had happened. And there it was, seconds of silence.

**********The Whole Story**********

Sammy runs straight towards Sandra and holds her in his arms and checks to see if she was injured.

"Sandra, are you okay?" Sammy asked.

"I've been asking that question all along, you expect her to answer?" Shelly screams in her mind.

"I have a booboo... *sob*sob" Sandra replied only to her big brother.

"She did it to me, the big fat meanie!!!" continued Sandra while pointing to Shelly.

"It was an accident, I didn't mean to do it, I didn't see you back then" Shelly said in remorse.

"Excuses excuses.. meh.." said Sandra sticking her tongue out. Shelly looks sharply at Sandra.

"Where does it hurt?" asked Sammy.

"Here" replied Sandra pointing to her left arm with her right hand.

"Here, lemme kiss it, *muah* feel better?"

"Thank you Sammy..." said Sandra then hugged her brother tightly.

*rumblerumble* the sound of Sandra's tummy rumbling.

"Sammy, I'm hungry, can we go and eat?" Sandra said with a sad face.

"I'd love to, but mom only gave me money for the groceries and I'm broke" replied Sammy.

"Awh.. *more rumbling*" Sandra said with an even sadder face.

"I know what we can do, well have breakfast together, our treat." said Alex suddenly.

Sammy and Sandra looked at each other and looked back at Alex.

"It's the least we can do after what happened" continued Alex.

"Can we go?" Sandra suddenly cheerful again.

All eyes are on Sammy now. All waiting for an answer. Sammy thinks for a second then nods as a 'yes'.

"Yeay!" said Sandra.

"Great, meet us at ***** cafe in half an hour. we have stuff to buy and Im guessing so do you" said Alex looking at the list in Sammy's hand. Sammy quickly hides the list from view.

With that last action, Sammy stood up with Sandra's hand in his, and walks away. Moments later, Shelly and her friends did the same. For the whole duration of half an hour, they did not cross paths as they were at the shop for real different reasons.

~~~~~~At ***** cafe~~~~~~

"Where is he, where is he, where is he!!!" said Jessica in excitement for some reason while waiting for Sammy at ***** cafe.

Shelly just sat there at the round table thinking of what had happened and what to do next. Alex and Siera gossiping about something as usual, but normally Shelly would join, seeing what happened, not so much. Then, Sammy arrived with Sandra empty handed. They just sat down, when Jessica asked "Where's your stuff?"

"In the car, duhh.." replied Sandra.

"Pfft~" went Jessica.

"Stop it Jessica. Anyway, what do you guys wanna eat?" asked Siera, handing Sammy and Sandra the menu.

They flipped over the pages and made up their mind. The waitress came right on time.

"I'll have the 'Bacon and Eggs' please, what do you want Sandra?" said Sammy.

"I want omelette." whispered Sandra to Sammy.

"And an omelette please." continued Sammy to the waitress.

"Okay, 'Bacon and Eggs' and omelette, is that rite?

"Yes" said Sammy looking at every one at the table. Then, the waitress walks away.

"You guys not eating?"asked Sammy to the rest after realizing that they did not order.

"We ordered before you came" replied Alex.

"Great" said Sammy.

The food arrived moments later. They ate their breakfast quietly. So did Jessica for some reason. When Sammy was done, he went to the restroom. While Sandra and Siera were chatting, Alex had a great idea, and told Shelly quickly.

"Hey, you should totally ask him to the party"suggested Alex.

"Hmmm... good idea. He will so forgive me for the accident."replied Shelly, after a long silence a while ago.

"Yeah, that too" said Alex, rolling her eyes.

"Wait here. Be right back." Shelly said after seeing Sammy walk out of the rest room.

"Yeah, like I'll be going anywhere..."Alex said to herself.

"Hey, wait."Shelly said telling Sammy to stop.

"What" said Sammy stopping.

"I'm having a party at my house at 8pm tonight while my moms out. I was hoping you could come" Shelly said to Sammy with shiny eyes.

"A party eh. Never been to one. This an invitation? Count me in."Sammy replied.

"Great!" Shelly said excitedly.

They both walked back to the table. Shelly gave a thumbs up at Alex as an indication that Sammy accepted. Right as Shelly sat down, she thought "OMG!! The party! preparations!"

Two Young Souls: Chapter 2

Shelly

"Kring, kring..." the telephone rings.

"Kring, kr..." the telephone rings for the second time but was stopped when Mrs. Green answered the phone.

"Hello?" said Mrs. Green to the person on the other line.

"Hello, may I speak to Mrs. Green, please" replied the caller.

"Speaking"

"I'm Mr. Smith's assistant here calling about a meeting tonight at the office, will you be able to attend? My apologies for the sudden meeting on a Sunday. Mr. Smith said it was important."

"Uhh, okay, what time is the meeting?"

"At 8 o'clock tonight"

"Okay, I'll be attending"

"Okay," *sound of typing on a keyboard*"Thank you, miss. Have a nice day"

"You're welcome" said Mrs. Green then hangs up the phone.

Shelly who was beside her mom throughout the whole conversation was concerned and wondered who that was.

"Who was that mom?" Shelly asked.

"That was my boss's assistant calling about a meeting tonight. So, darling, I will be out tonight. Will you be okay about staying home while I'm out?" replied Shelly's mom.

"Can i have a few friends over?" asked Shelly again.

"Sure, but only a few, and no boys, understand?"

"Yeay! Thank you mom." said Shelly in excitement, but she only heard the 'sure' and did not listen to the other details.

After that, she immediately ran to her room to call up her three BFFs. This is how the conversation went:

Shelly: Alex, hi. Hey, my mom's out tonight, wanna come over.
Alex: Sure, lets call the others and make a 4-way call. CONFERENCE!
*beep, beep*
Siera: Hello? Jessica!
Jessica: Hello? Siera!
*Siera and Jessica said simultaneously*
Shelly: Hi guys.
Siera: is this a 3-way?
Alex: nope 4-way
Jessica: no way, COOLNESS!
Siera: yeah, so wassup?
Shelly: Okay, my mom's goin out tonight. Wanna come over? my mom said it was okay.
Jessica: Hmm.. I have no plans tonight, so, sure, sounds fun.
Alex: Great. How about you Siera?
Siera: So, Shelly, you're mom's out the whole night?
Shelly: yeah, I think so.
Siera: I see.
Alex: So, you coming or not?
Siera: I've got a better idea.
Jessica: WHAT, WHAT!! TELL US!!
Siera: Jess, would u just chillax?
Jessica: Sorry, go on
Siera: Okay, your mom's out for say like at least three hour rite,Shell? Why don't we have a party?

Siera: See, c'mon. What do you say?
Shelly: Uhh... umm... okay, i think..
Alex: Yeay!
Jessica: Radical!!... hehe~
Siera: Great, so its set. Lets go buy party stuff at the store. Everyone be there at 8 o'clock sharp.
Alex: Fantastic, everyone okay with that?
Jessica: Wait! But that leaves me with a half hour to choose an outfit, noooo!!
Siera and Shelly: JESS!!
Jessica: What, its a major crisis.
Alex: Jess, its just going to the store. No need for fancy clothing.
Jessica: B..b..but, what if we see a hot guy there?
Alex: At eight in the morning? HAHA! you made me laugh..
Jessica: Good point. Well, see you guys there then.
Siera: See ya...
Shelly:okay, bye..
*beep*conference over...

~~~~~At the store~~~~~~

Shelly was the first to arrive. Second was Siera, then followed by Alex. They were about to question about Jessica, when she arrived in full-fledge pink.

"Wow! Waddup with you?" asked Alex sarcastically.

"Nothing fancy rite? haha..." said Jessica.

After that, they begun their quest for the 'party stuff'. On the way to their first destination, they gossiped about everything. School, boys, celebs, even their own boyfriends. Sound of laughter was really loud when they walked by. When they reached the chocolate isle, Shelly was having so much fun talking and walking backwards, when suddenly Alex, Siera and Jessica screamed to stop. But it was too late. Shelly felt something behind her, then heard a 'thump' followed by loud crying. It was a little girl. She was about to take a bar of chocolate when Shelly hit her.

"OMG!! Shell! What did you do?"said Alex in astonishment.

"We all know what happened. Shell hit her."Jessica said dumbly.

"We are well aware of that, Jess" Siera implied in an a-matter-of-fact tone.

"Jess, this is serious!" stressed Alex.

"Little girl, are you okay? can you stand up? I'm sorry. Who did you come with?" said Shelly to the little girl, trying to make things better.

"Ohh, you're in trouble." said Jessica.

"Shush!" said Shelly, shutting Jessica up.

Shelly continued to try and cheer the girl up. But it was no use. The crying kept getting louder and louder. Shelly didn't know what to do. Neither did her friends.

Two Young Souls: Chapter 1

Sammy

On one particular sunday...

“Sammy!”, his mom called upon him.


“Yes Mom!”, he answered as he rushed down the flight of stairs looking for his mom. 


He thought to himself,“I’m hungry, wonder what’s for breakfast?”. 


“Mom! What’s for breakfast? I’m hungry!”,


“If you want breakfast, go and make it yourself, you’re seventeen for God’s sake!” his mom answered. 


Sammy mumbled to himself, “Fine..”. He entered the kitchen, searching for food as he was starving, hoping to find eggs in the fridge to make scrambled egg. His hope was shattered as the eggs had ran out. 


“Mom, we’re out of eggs! Gimme some monaaaaayh! Wanna buy some eggs, jeesh I’m starving!” said Sammy to his Mom. 


“Here’s the money and a list , why don’t you do shopping for me as well, we ran out of groceries.”, 


“Aww man! Shoot! Fine..”, while he took a glance at the list and walked out the door. Sammy got in the car and starts it. The loud revving of the vehicle caused his sister, Sandra to rush downstairs to the porch where Sammy is.


"Sammy, where are you going?" said Sandra with her cute voice as she was only eight years old.


"Can I follow?" continued Sandra.


"I'm going to the hypermarket to buy some groceries 'your mom' wants me to buy, want to accompany me?", said Sammy.


"Could I? , MOMMY!! Can I, Can I, PWEASE GO??", screamed Sandra to her mom nearby.


"Yeah-yeah, whatever" replied mom while busy with the laundry.


"Yeay!" said Sandra as she hops in the passenger seat next to her brother, Sammy.


~~~~~~ In the car to the hypermarket~~~~~~


"Sammy, can you put chocolate on the list? I want some" said Sandra breaking the silence.


"Sandra~, what did I tell you about chocolate? There's a LOT of sugar that can cause cavities to your 'pwetty' teeth. Besides, you'll get a sugar rush." replied Sammy.


"But Sammy, did you not watch Discovery Channel? It said that chocolate is really good for you. It has anti-something, that prevents heart problems. Besides, admit it, YOU WANT CHOKIES TOO!!" said Sandra opposing Sammy's statement


"Ugh! Why did mom subscribe for that darn channel anyway..." Sammy said silently not wanting Sandra to hear.


"Okay, fine, have your chocolate, see if i care" Sammy sticks his tongue out at Sandra annoyingly.


"By the way, its 'anti-oxidants'..."said Sammy to Sandra correcting her.


"And you said you didn't give a hoogie about that sciency stuff, heheh~" gloated Sandra while looking out the window of the car.


~~~~~~ Not long after~~~~~~


They finally reached the hypermarket. Upon entering the shop, Sandra sped off in search of the thing called 'CHOCOLATE'. Sammy tried to catch hold of Sandra, but she was too fast. Before he knew it, Sandra was out of sight. Feeling responsible, he runs from here to there searching for Sandra, but, alas,  she was gone...
