Hii, welcome to my padlet since this is the first post you'll be seeing , i'm going to introduce myself. I am :

Name : Nik Muhammad Khairie Amshar

Class : 2K6

Age : 14 y/o

Generally people called me with the shorten version of my third name which is Khai. I got that name from PPCS and I liked it which is why i keep it until today.

I have 3 siblings and I'm the middle child. I know about the stereotype where middle child don't get enough attention but for me I got all the attention I need from my parent.

That's it for my biography, if you want to know a lot more about me, you should read my padlet and meet me in person instead

Lyric :

Cold bones, yeah, that's my love
She hides away, like a ghost

Ooh, does she know that we bleed the same?
Ooh, don't wanna cry but I break that way

Cold sheets, oh, where's my love?
I am searching high
I'm searching low in the night

Ooh, does she know that we bleed the same?
Ooh, don't wanna cry but I break that way

Did she run away? Did she run away? I don't know
If she ran away, if she ran away, come back home
Just come home

I got a fear, oh, in my blood
She was carried up into the clouds, high above

Ooh, if you've bled, I bleed the same
Ooh, if you're scared, I'm on my way

Did you run away? Did you run away? I don't need to know
If you ran away, if you ran away, come back home
Just come home

Reasons:

I like this song because it resemble the emptiness in your heart when you search something that is long gone in this world. In my opinion, its one of the worst feeling that human can feel but unfortunately every single one of us will feel this feeling at least twice in our lifetime if we live long enough. Its like having immortality, you'll see the world ending in front of your eyes as you start to move in the deep dark void of the universe without anyone

This one of my favourite topic to talk about. Before this my favourite sport is XC(cross country) but since its focuses more on endurance so i'm transitioning into middle distance running. My favourites event are the 1500m and 5000m. currently i'm training for MSSD Olahraga 1500m. I have dream to compete in the MSSM before graduating but to even qualify for MSSS is no easy feat which is why i'm planning a few years ahead to achieve this goal. One of the reason why i love this sport is because its an individual sport and doesn't require a team.

I was at a competition called OFS (Olimpiad Falsafah Selangor) and we're at the library when this picture was taken. I don't consider this as a competition rather than a preparation for MYPO (Malaysian Philosophy Olympiad) later in the year because this competition and MYPO is 2 separated competition and since OFS is a smaller scale compared to MYPO it make me look at it as only a preparation. I have always been interested in philosophy but since I'm a DIP student, its always been limited to me. During this competition, there are only 4 male students from our college which is me, Ezril, Amir and Aswad. It were held in PPAS (Perpustakaan Awam Selangor) and its a 4 days competition but only during the weekend.

I read this book around January this year i think. This book really add a new perspective to my thinking and really progress me ahead in life. I like how it show the example of compounded effect. After finishing this book, i really wonder how many good books are there in this world and start adding reading to my daily routine. I also observe that many people who are high in IQ or have really good academic result always read book. Right now, I'm planning to buy a book called " The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F*ck" and i can't wait to read it.

I really recommend Rocky as a movie to watch when you're sad or down in life. I saw clips of this movie but never find the time to watch it. I'm planning to watch it this weekend. Its a good classic watch when you're trying to watch a movie with your dad since its published around 1976. If you really unsure about this movie, you can ask yourself "why did Mr K put a quote from Rocky in the English classroom (Classroom 7)?".

From other people's perspectives, reading is one of the most boring activities, but not from my perspective. I think this activity not only train brain to focus but also gives me a lot of information. I don't like reading fictional books because they don't apply in the real world. I usually read books on health or self-improvement because I can apply the principle from those book in my life. I think I started to develop this hobby around 1-2 years ago because I saw what content my cousins (they're around 6–9 years old) had and started to think about how I spend my time.

# data[].attributes.body
I think many people already knows this about me, but just in case you don't know, My role model is someone from the batch Coruscate. He's helped me in a lot of way, from helping me in my academic, sport and even life. I really think he's one of the unique seniors that doesn't get the appreciation that he deserve. I get to know a lot more about the past seniors because of him and he's the one who inspired me to become the person i am today. He inspired me to become a student-athlete and helped me to manage my time properly which i don't think many people have this skill. I really hope in the future i can meet him, we only talk online before and never met even once.

This is the starting day of the new era. If i meet with myself during this time, we both would be confuse as why we're so different even though we're the same person. I was really nervous on that day resulting me to have the memory of a goldfish, i can't remember the senior name even when he just told me his name. I don't really have friend at the time because of my personality (introvert) but now it have turn into extrovert/ambivert. The only thing i can remember on that day is me repeating to myself " I hate myself" everytime i make a mistake

# data[].attributes.body
My personality is INTP - A, I don't really know about what that mean since I don't really care about personality. For me I can change my personality to any personality I like depending on the situation, I think the better term would be adapt. Which is why in my opinion personality test are not really useful, unless you want to collect data about someone then yes this is a useful tool

This is one of the books which i like the most, and currently i'm reading it. its been a norm for me to see highly successful people to wake up at super early time like 5 am, i'm reading this book as a guide for me to follow their footsteps. One of the people who i know follow this routine is Jared and Ustaz Khair. Its making me wonder more about what they do when they were my age since they were very successful people even when they're 15 or 16 years old

This particular sport used to be my main sport but its been replace by middle distance running. I have lots of memories about this sport and through this sport i have made a few new friends from the IPGKRM. I would love to race again next year and being at Bangi, give me the edge that i was looking for all this time. I have a few plans when i got to Bangi but i'll keep it a secret for now 😉. I don't know whether I'm able to represent Hulu Langat soon but I'm certain that I'm able to represent it one day, maybe not this year or the next one but I will one day.

MSSD Merentas Desa is one of the competitions where i'm really passionate about. But this year is different, I don't get enough training and i was afraid of dissappointing the school.I was thinking about all those negative effect it will have on me and I set 1 long term goals on that day and that is to focus more on MSSD Olahraga to shift my attention away. Then, I set 1 goal in my mind on competition day and that is to beat Arman, i don't care about ranking and just repeat to myself "just beat Arman and that will be enough" and that's exactly what happened, I beat him and felt proud of myself. I learnt a lot from this competition and really want to race again next year. I'm hoping to get the result i want in MSSD Olahraga and that will be enough for this year.

I don't have one yet but i really want to major in Computer Science. Some people suggested MIT to me, but since its only a division III university in NCAA, I will not fulfil my whole potential as a student-athlete. University is a place where its still too early to retire in sport since many people really started to shine in university. I have considered Stanford before because its computer science, popularity and its a division I university in NCAA. Usually athletes will have a higher acceptance rate compared to non-athletes in a division I university but i will survey a lot more university after this.

i think this is one of the competition which my parent sign me up for. I didn't complained as it will increase my koko mark. During the competition, I was answering the question without thinking about anything non-related to the competition. One by one i finished the question but in the end there were a few questions which i couldn't answer, I wish for the best and pick random answer. After finishing it, I quickly go to the hostel back with Ezril, we talk about the questions and our answer. When we arrived, i went to my room to do preparation for tomorrow's class and that's it for this competition. it is not as exciting as other competition but it is what it is.

Beaver. that name really spark a memory in me. Last year I entered this competition but don't get anything that would make me proud but this year is still the same (I think). This year I only enter the competition for koko marks as its hard to get any awards in this competition. I was even surprise my name is in the list for this competition. The day of the competition arrived, I don't feel nervous whatsoever since the purpose of me joining this competition is only for koko marks. I start the competition with a calm mind and proceed with question 1 then question 2 and so on. Until i started to think, I don't have enough time and started to feel nervous. I kept a clear goal and keep answering the question one by one. By the time the competition ended, I didn't finished all the question and I spark a conversation with my friends and my day goes as normal.

I really want to someday visit Kenya, as it's a breeding ground for world-class distance athletes. Usually, in any competition, Kenyan athletes will not only win the competition but also dominate it. Which is one of the factors that makes me want to visit it. I'm thinking maybe post-university has a higher chance of me going there, maybe alone, with my friends or my family.

# data[].attributes.body
You may be surprised as to why forward college is here; it's places I want to visit, not countries. So without further ado, let's go into why I want to visit this place.

I want to visit this place as not only a visitor but also as a student. As a DIP student, my goal is to get offered by Forward College to continue my studies there during Level 1. I'll admit it, it's hard to go there considering that I will be competing with people from my batch. I think I will have a brighter future if I can go there.

Today is the day where we present out PBL games, my team consisting of Hakim, Irsyad and me were going to present our game about space to Lecturers like Madam Zulaikha, Madam Aishah and the whole DIP basically but yesterday night, me and hakim pulled of an all nighter to finish our game, Its becoming a habit where every time PBL presentation is near, we're going to pull of an all nighter to finish our game. The presentation went well and we all let out a sigh of relieve.

For now I don't have a really specific ambition but my ambition will be in the field of computer science. I'm interested in Machine Learning and Data Science but i can't choose between both of them. Before entering KPP, I don't really have any ambition in mind so I ask my father for suggestion and he suggested to try explore the world of computer science.

# data[].attributes.body
I think its a little bit weird in other people perspective to have someone as your role model and bestfriend at the same time. I think its not wrong but its something that don't usually happened, for me its the same thing as people having a father, they look up to their father and at the same time feel comfortable around him and not feel nervous whatsoever.

I first know about jared during the holidays before entering Kpp. I do a lot of research about kpp and found him winning many competitions, I was really amazed, thus why I made him my role model. Then during my first day here, I tried searching for him but unfortunately he already graduated. Then I ask my seniors about his phone number and we started to talk. After a few months I think we come to a point where I can call him my bestfriend.

# data[].attributes.attachment_caption
picture of a competition i recently joined

# data[].attributes.body
This year, I try to develop a liking for joining competitions as it will boost my koko marks. I think I took inspiration to join more competition from Jared. I want the future generation to look at my achievements and want to achieve the same things as me, the same way Jared inspired me to do these things. My goals for this year are to join at least 10+ competitions, and I'm currently working toward them.

# data[].attributes.body
In the SD class padlet, I've already achieved one of the goals I set for myself, which is to have a position in clubs. Here is the list of the positions I hold right now:

1) House Captain Sapphire

2) President of BBSM

3) Co-President for Digital Maker

4) Co-President for Volleyball

I don't hold positions like PRS, MTP, and SPR because I think they require a lot of effort and I can't focus on my sport. I think I got those positions because I'm friendly with juniors and because of my social skills. I think without Jared, I will always stay an introvert and never get these positions because I changed my personality to ambivert once I realized I would never achieve what Jared would if I stayed an introvert.

# data[].attributes.body
I think I achieve and change some of the goals I set for myself. Like waking up at 5 a.m., I think it's not necessary for me right now, but I'm trying to wake up at 5:30 a.m. consistently now. For 5 a.m., it will greatly benefit me only in Bangi, since Bangi has a lot more freedom compared to Seremban. For the XC (cross country), I changed it to be better on track since MSSD cross-country has already finished. I think for me to be able to perform these sports at a high level, I need to wait until we move to Bangi since the environment there is better in terms of sports.

# data[].attributes.body
I really achieved those goals of mine in this section. Like one of the goals, joining and winning more competitions, I don't know whether I won those competitions since the results haven't come out yet, but I've joined a lot more competitions right now. I even set a goal to enter 10+ competition this year, and I think that's a win for me.

I also crush my goal of reading more books. I read a lot more books compared to last year. I set a goal this year to read at least 5 books this year (around 300+ pages each).

Time management and self-discipline. Now, this is the hard part: time management and self-discipline are skills I've been working on and off since I'm afraid of burning out. It's hard to really master these two skills (if it's even possible at all), but I know it will really pay off if I work on them.

# data[].attributes.body
I set only one goal in this section, and that is to explore more about mindset. Yep, like you guessed, I also achieve this goal, but it's hard to implement it in real life since people's judgment really plays a factor in me. Nonetheless, I take it as a win for me because I explored it more than last year.

# data[].attributes.body
I dislike not making progress in my goals. Its not only of the things which I don't like, its also 1 of my fear. I'm afraid of wasting my life and looking back to my foundation 1, I think i can do better than that.

Not making progress is also annoying for me but it all come down to my mindset which is why I always repeat to myself "It is what it is".

Teachers day

one of the day which people have awaited for the entire year, the day we seek forgiveness from our teachers, we give gifts to our beloved teachers. On this day, I don't have enough time to prepare any present, i could only buy the flowers but I was in a rush so couldn't fill the form with every teachers name. sorry :( .

# data[].attributes.body
I rarely go out, since I hate going out. I would rather be in my room, reading books. I think this is the introverted side of me. I don't blame anyone for it, but I think it comes from my family rarely going on vacation.

On this day, me, Iffat, Harris and Irsyad went out. We don't plan this day much; in fact, I don't even know where we are going and just go with the flow. This day really gave me a sense of what friendship should be like. We went to the supermarket to buy food, and we also played bowling (for the first time in my life). When we played it, I imitated someone who I knew played a lot of bowling before, and I beat Harris and Iffat. Irsyad was getting a haircut at the time, at the time, so he couldn't play with us. After that, we went back to college and continue with our life.

Election day seems like a day where every popular person gets nervous. A day where people would climb to a higher ranking in social life or fall down. A day where SPR got the most attention because people wanted to know the result earlier.

That day, when we went to vote, I really got confused by the MTP name from Bangi. I think that's one way people can get votes by being friendly to juniors from Bangi. Nonetheless, I voted for people who I think deserve the position. After that, the question most people ask you is: "Who do you vote for?" I think it's the same thing as people asking your CGPA after the result gets released. I don't really care about that and usually just keep it a secret.

Prior to the election, I heard rumors about people being forced to fight for the position. I feel bad for them, but I can't do anything about it.

this may appear bold to other people's eye since i'm a DIP student but i likes to do. I don't view reading and research as a same activity but a skill that complement each other.

I likes to do research on running like reading research paper online. I also likes to do it old-shool way, where I read old books to look at the history of running training.

I also did lots of research on geniuses in the past like albert einstein, nikola tesla and Isaac Newton but I don't think its practical as a student who live in a hostel.

# data[].attributes.body
We gathered at Dataran Melewar to hear the announcement about the result. I don't really care about it, but I'll congratulate anyone who wins. When they announced it, I was a little bit shocked to find that all of the masters are DIP students. I think it's both wholesome and concerning at the same time.

When the announcements are done and all students are allowed to go back to hostels. I saw a few people crying because they won and others because they lost. I felt bad for them, but it was out of my control, and I think they put up a good fight, but life is not all sunshine and rainbows.

I went back to the hostel with a new perspective on life. I couldn't help but think about the person who lost. They broke their promises, which they may have made with their parents, friends, and lecturers, but at the end of the day, life is life; "it is what it is."

No, hear me out. I don't like rain ONLY during the evening and morning during the weekend. As the rain will disrupt my training schedule. Other than that, I'm fine with rain. I also like rain during the evening or afternoon because it will reduce the temperature and help me to study better, especially during the weekend.

I like to have progress toward my goals. It really motivates me to go further in life, and I've read a book ("The Winners Effect") before about making progress.

One of the things that annoys me the most is not making progress toward my goals. This happened a lot to me before, but I just thought it was not putting enough effort in the correct way. Which is why I made researching and reading my main hobbies.

Some people may prefer other weather over another but cloudy for me is the best weather because its cool and I can play sport during the evening.

I trained hockey before during standard 6 as preparation for MSSD. It was before I fell in love with sport . It was a fun time and luckily i don't get injured. Unfortunately, I don't get selected to represent my school as I wasn't fit enough and not matured enough as a hockey player.

There's a few lesson I can apply to my life and also the skill of playing hockey will pay off during semester 2 since we're going to learn hockey for our PE subject

In the amber glow of fading light, Memories dance in the quiet night, Echoes of laughter, whispers of tears, Fading through the veil of years.

You may have heard about this sport before but I used to do calisthenics in the past. One of my favourite skill is elbow lever, because its relatively easy and one of the first skill I mastered.

Here's the story of how I started calisthenics. At our primary school, we like to arm wrestling with each other , like always I want to be the best one but I don't have the skill yet for it.

As i dive deeper into the world of arm wrestling, I discovered bodybuilding and started doing it. Then after a while, I saw a video about calisthenics and made my mind to commit only to calisthenics and do whatever it takes

At first, I struggle a lot with calisthenic, even considered to abandoned it, but I felt like its a normal process to go through and kept reminding me of my promise then I got my first skill.

Unfortunately, when I entered KPPN i started to went off track and not doing calisthenics anymore. I would consider myself as retired but it was a fun phase in my life!

Lyric:

Reasons :

I like to use this as my go to music for studying since it don't have any lyric that could disrupt me. I also liked it since it resemble the emptynees of this life. To remind me to go all in in this life. The struggle I've been through and also other people struggle. Honestly, It gave me a feeling that couldn't be articulated by words but only by feelings

This was my first outing and my only outing during F1. At that time, I would consider myself as an introvert when it comes to making friends.

This outing is not with my friend but its with by cousins who study at UKM. Unfortunately when I come back to Bangi during F3 he would graduate.

This outing was during Ramadhan and we bought a whole lot of food to keep at my hostel. I think the total came out at RM 100+ for foods only.

When I came back to my room, I just sent my Outing Card to the warden and went back to my room

I wasn't at Seremban Campus when they announce the result for exco, I was at Bangi for Selangor Philosophy Olympiad. I know about the result when Amir showed me a picture where the exco who won are standing in a line in front while looking at the audience.

By this time, I usually hear people say things like "I should have go for the election" to themselves. For me, I 'm not going for MTP for many reasons which I'll keep as a secret

When I saw the result, I was little bit shock for a few people who won the election but I guess there must be a reason why they won ━━(￣ー￣*|||━━

Personally i think this is quite naive considering I haven't even go to state level yet but I think if I couldn't choose computer science for my career for whatever reason, I might take Athlete.

In my personal opinion, I'm quite passionate about being an athlete but I just couldn't get access to the right training philosophy. We can say I'm in the mid of finding my training philosophy.

Malaysia is also one of the country where its easy to be an athlete in my opinion. Just look at Malaysia's track and field record, if we compare it with US high school record, US high school record would be faster.

Since this is my second option for career, Athlete may be just another hobby I do until university level. If i couldn't make it my career until university, I think I'll retire from being an athlete.

The 7 habits of highly successful people

I haven't read this yet but I watch a few summaries about this book. I think its a great book because we can look at various of highly successful people and find something they all have in common. Usually if many people share the same thing it is what works.

Every once in a while, I try to watch the videos again to remind me of all of these habits. Truth be told, I also don't apply this to my life in certain situation. I also need some reminder to apply these things in life.

Wohoo, my favourite event of the sport week. Today we'll run around 4km. I have high hopes for this event and aiming to break school's record. I have been waiting for this moment my whole F1

When the gun fire, I got a few goosebumps and feeling nervous even when running. After a while, I kind of turn off my brain to focus on the run.

When the pace seems to stabilize, I decided to go a bit faster but the pace is still manageable. Suddenly, BOOM I couldn't run, I stop running to reduce the pain but still jogged at a slow pace, I saw Ivan passing me. Its a soul crushing moment for me. After a while, I start to run again whilst biting my Sapphire T-Shirt to shift my attention

When I finished the race, I felt really disappointed to find I came out at number 6 and behind another sapphire. I couldn't run with my feet since I injured it. I couldn't play any sport for the next 2 days to not injure my leg more. I felt really disappointed in me.

I talked with Jared about it and he helped me to reduce the mental weight it had on me. At the end of the day "It Is What It Is".

# data[].attributes.body
I hate injury. Injury usually happens when I push myself to the limit. The thing is, I ALWAYS push myself to the limit, making me always injured.

Injury is one of the things that scares me the most. I always do what I can to prevent injury and treat it if I have one. Normal athletes like basketball players, football players, and volleyball players will also hate injuries. Not only will it decrease our fitness and make us lose our skills. It is also insanely frustrating to gain back those fitness

Injury also affects athletes not just physically but mentally. I usually don't think too much about my injury and just proceed with life to reduce my concern, like I always said, "It Is What It Is.".

# data[].attributes.body
After 2 days of not doing anything, this is my last chance to help sapphire. I'm not going to let the injury effect me.

When we arrived at Bangi, I talked with a few seniors to help me alleviate my nervousness

After sometimes, they start to call for 800m event, I was stunned since we don't have any time to warmup but luckily the event was delayed and we got our chance to warm ip

During the warm up, I felt pain at my ankle and others notice it too but I try not to care about it

When the event started, I don't really have any expectation other than getting a medal and that is exactly what happened. I got bronze for 800m and 400m. Luckily, this year I got to break the curse of getting only bronze by getting silver for 4x400m.

I felt disappointed in me as I train for so long but only got bronze for 400m and 800m. I couldn't really do anything about it.

I went around and talked with a few seniors and heard the announcement of sapphire getting third place overall. It was a soul crushing moment and I saw a few seniors crying. Even our house-cap cried. I don't know what to do, whether to comfort my friends, to cry, feel disappointed.

This year sport week really have a bad ending for sapphire.

I love nature since it helps me calm. I also like to enjoy the scenery of nature while having a run, but I never got a chance to since I never had a trail run.

The nature also helps me to think clearly, which leads me to ask philosophical questions. This usually will lead me to remodel my thinking style and improve whatever aspect of my life is being questioned.

Usually when I study, I'll play calming nature sounds. I hear the bird chirping, the sound of a waterfall, and others; it helps me to sooth out and create a perfect environment to study in.

Nature is also a place where I spent a lot of my time as a child. It's a place where me and my childhood friends play together. Nature is a place where humanity can get to know each other.

I may be a middle-distance runner, but I also enjoy sprinting from time to time. Sprinting helps me to compete with my friends since it requires less time than racing a 1500m or 5k.

One of the events I like is 100 m. Currently my PR stands at around 14 sec. I'm planning to break sub 14 sec before turning 15, but being a middle distance runner doesn't give me the opportunity to train for shorter distances. Middle distance also has a carryover effect to 100 m, but not as much as when I completely focused on 100 m only.

Overall, I think sprinting is an event where everyone can try it out.

This is one of the first books I read in my reading journey. It helped me to think about failure in a new way, which led me to the person I am today. This book also explains the benefits of having a growth mindset instead of a fixed mindset.

Without this book, I would easily fall into the trap of trying to be perfect, which would result in me not achieving anything.

I also combine this book with a concept I learned, which is continuous improvement. Reading this book also checked off one of the goals I set for myself this year, which is to learn more about mindset and to read more books.

# data[].attributes.body
I haven't read this book yet because I'm reading other books. I discovered the existence of this book when I started to learn about philosophy last year. I always put it on my reading list but never got the chance to tick it off.

I've watched a few videos summarizing this book to try to grasp the concept of this book. Apparently, the author, which is Marcus Aurelius, wrote this book personally to himself and never had the intention to publish it.

This book is also associated with a philosophy teaching called stoicism. There are other philosophy teachings like Nihilism, Existalism, and others. I want to learn each of them one by one, starting with stoicism, and maybe the next one is Nihilism.

Overall, I think this is a good book, especially if you want to remodel your thinking and behavior.

Lyric :

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars
Yeah, we'll be counting stars

I see this life like a swinging vine
Swing my heart across the line
And in my face is flashing signs
Seek it out and ye shall find

Old but I'm not that old
Young but I'm not that bold
And I don't think the world is sold
On just doing what we're told

I feel something so right doing the wrong thing
And I feel something so wrong doing the right thing
I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be, we'll be counting stars

I feel your love, and I feel it burn
Down this river every turn
Hope is our four-letter word
Make that money, watch it burn

Old, but I'm not that old
Young, but I'm not that bold
And I don't think the world is sold
On just doing what we're told

And I feel something so wrong doing the right thing
I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie
Everything that drowns me makes me wanna fly

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be, we'll be counting stars

Oh, take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned

Everything that kills me makes me feel alive

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be, we'll be counting stars

Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
Take that money ,watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned

Reasons:

Whenever I feel energetic or studying something that is not too heavy I would put this in my playlist

It have an energetic vibes to it making me more energetic

I used to listen to this song while running last year but I tried to avoid running whilst listening to music this year

Lyric :

I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete

Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old, and I need something to rely on
So, tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired, and I need somewhere to begin

I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?

Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old, and I need something to rely on
So, tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired, and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So, why don't we go somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know

Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old, and I need something to rely on
So, tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired, and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So, why don't we go?
So, why don't we go?

Ooh, oh-oh
Ah, oh

This could be the end of everything
So, why don't we go somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know
Somewhere only we know

Reasons:

I usually listen to this song whenever I want to remember my life before KPPN (I kind of forgot everything that happened before PPCS).

It has nostalgic vibes, making it my go-to music.

I think it's the embodiment of the perfect song where it recaps everything that happened to you in the past.

I want to visit Norway one day. There are a few factors contributing to this but mainly there are 2 factors.

The first factor is the athletes there. I always want to mee coaches there since Norway revolutionized endurance training. I would like to look at their training philosophy and their training insight

The second factor is the view. Imagine if you can visit and look at the view there. Isn't it amazing? and it will really help you de-clutter your brain.

If i could pick a place where I want to go on a holiday. I would probably pick Norway

Watching movies is a hobby which i thought i would never do. In my personal experience, i never really like watching movie. Up until my friend told me about harry potter and I watched all of them out of curiosity. Watching movies helped me expand my vocabulary which will benefit me in all kind of endeavours.

This year was a different kind of year for me. All of the training I did paid off. Not only was I awarded a medal for 2000m steeplechase event. I too felt proud and super happy with my performances. although I didn't qualify for the final for the 800m event due to nutrition mistakes.

However, the racing experience was horrible. There are certain events i competed in which made me felt like I want to quit running. There was an event which had me laying down on the ground due to the pain but I'm really grateful for this opportunity because i got to race with my teammates and make the suffering a lot more bearable.

By this mssd I fell in love with an event called the steeplechase. I never know such event exist in track and field. Out of all the events i competed in, i would say 2000m steeplechase was the most fun, maybe because i got to jump and land in the water.

I like this movie and i watched all harry potter movies. I would say it expanded my vocabulary by a significant amount and i like their british accent.

These movies taught me a lot about friendship, ambition and trusting others.

I would say I'm pretty shallow as a person as all I do is train and go to class. I do train a lot and there was this phase where I ran twice a day to prepare for competition and sportweek.

Now I'm picking weightlifting back to further develop strength because I want to focus 800m as my primary race distance.

I like buying things for my training rather it be as simple as theraband or as expensive as running shoes. Mainly because i get to use it everyday and progress toward my goals.

For cross-campus this year, i managed to win it. Finally all of the training paid off. I would say from all of the events i competed during sport week, cross-campus is the most brutal out of them all. Even though the race course was somewhat flat, I still felt the burning sensation in my leg and this race truly tested my physical fitness.

For track and field I competed in the 800m, 4x400m relay, and 400m. The 400m was a bit tough for me as I didn’t have the raw speed needed for a sprint because I spent too much time training for 5km and I didn’t place as well as I hoped. The 4x400m relay was a lot of fun mainly because i got to run with my team and pushed each other. The 800m was my main event, I didn't push too hard during the 800m as it was the first event of the day and I want to save my energy for 400m and 4x400m relay

As of now, I found 1 thing i'm really curious about, it's cybersecurity. I'm fascinated by how can a really powerful system have vulnerabilities too.
