Due to the free time I have in my hand, I viewed the older posts in my blog, backed to 2009.

I sensed the struggle and the faith I have before. It is amazing! God is almighty! =)

In August 2009, I did not score 1800 and above for the SAT mock test in college. I was upset, yet not willing to give up.
Do click the title to read the post: "I Fail!".

Because of the support from my family, especially my mum, and the strength from God, I pushed myself forward, continued to apply for Ivy League and Ivy League Standard, sat for those required test, and did my best to meet JPA's requirement. If I gave up just because I did not make it for the mock SAT, I would not have make it to University of Washington, Seattle. I am glad that I make it! I am going to University of Washington, and I am very happy =). Thank God!! Of course, thanks to my sponsor, JPA too. Thanks a lot to my teachers for the letters ands form that that they wrote and filled for me.

I believe many people including me would like to be "The Girl/Boy who Leap Through Time", or own a sword in the movie of Prince Persia, or own a time machine, which allow us to go back to the time session that we want, to make or prevent something from happening, like choosing another path or etc.

However, the fact is cruel, as we cannot turn back the time. If you do something wrong, and want to go back and prevent yourself from doing the wrong thing; it is just impossible!

There is only one solution, that is to think before every action to make sure we are not going to regret.

Due to the free time I have in my hand currently, feeling lazy to do anything, I started to think. "If" appears itself many times in my mind, I just cannot help it.

Sometimes, if I can just speak nicely and properly, I would not have offended the others, like my mum who gave a class lesson to me after I offended her with my words accidentally.

If I did continue attending drum lessons, I will be a better drummer.

If I just run faster, I will be the best girl.

If I train hard, I will be a better table tennis player.

I am kind of upset today. For some reason, my mum was excited to celebrate my birthday, by holding a family dinner which involves my aunties and uncles. At first, I did not agree, as I want to go to church, then I think it is better for me to please my mum, so the dinner was on. During the dinner, something happened, I was not happy. If I know all these will happen, I will choose to attend prayer meeting like usual and I will not spoil Jane's plan for me. Haha.. But that is just an "if" after all. =(

If... ... if... ... if... ... if... ...

Dear "if", I know human cannot turn back the time, unless time machine is created. With the presence of time machine, it is kind of dangerous, as people can just go back any time, which will change life and death, marriages, exams and etc; then, the world system and the natural law will be disrupted. Ouch! That is terrible! Do you still want to own a time machine?

I met Pn Goh at the place we had our dinner. =)

My house is in a messy condition, so i have to blur the background...

Ok, I accept the fact that I have to say "Goodbye, 18".

Semester 1 :
I joined a few clubs and activities, thus, I am quite busy.
I can hardly forget I who sleep early always had to sleep late for POL trial discussion.
The trial was like an assignment that counted in our course work.
See, I look so sleepy :

I remembered very clearly that the trial was one or two week before final. When I was studying the thick textbook for Introduction to Computer and Processing, my friend came to knock on my door, asked me to go for the trial evident photos hooting and video recording. To tell you frankly, I had limited time to finish reading the textbook, but I had to go, as that was my responsibility. The trial was getting near, and we were getting busier, I cannot even have enough sleep. In an afternoon, I wanted to have my afternoon nap, again, the same friend knocked on my door, asked me to go to the common room for discussion. Well, I went. But there were only three people there, the rest were missing in action, how I hope that my friend did not knock on my door and let me sleeping in action.

*sigh*.. I did not do well in the trial.


I joined AUP Club, one of the activities was Halloween Barbecue Night, which was a few days before the final. As the organizing committee, I had no choice but to arrive early and went back late for the preparation and clean up. I was glad that the event was a success and most of the committees did help out til the event ended despite the fact that final was just round the corner.

I became fatter during first semester.

I wonder, why some people manage to finish the whole text book, but I did not have the time. Maybe they stay up late to study or maybe they have good time management.

CSC101 was the last subject in final, when most of my friends finished their tests on Friday morning and went shopping or backed to their sweet home, I had to sit in my room, waited for Friday evening to arrive. I sat there, looked at my book and notes, feeling depressed, though I have up to four hours to do last minute revision, I just felt like I cannot finish it in four hours. However, I did not give up, I studied as much as I can. In the process, I called Yan Hui to output my feeling. She was surprise to know that I have not finish study yet, and she blessed me with wishes and promised to pray for me.

Nevertheless, God is good all the time. He knows me and he helped me. I managed to survive in final. =)
I was not only praying and do nothing hoping to get good result, I did try my best to study.
Thus, I always believe in an equation: praying + studying = excellent result.

Semester 2:
In fact, out of the three semester in the campus, second semester was the busiest, as AUP Club was active. LOL gathering night, Experience U.S Week, and Inter-College Skills Challenge.

Game time

Because of the movie night in Experience US Week, I stayed up till 3 o'clock in the morning. Who is the organizing chairperson of Experience US Week? Is he or she insane? Does he or she knows that people need to sleep? The answer is, I, Choo Lee Lee, is the organizing chairperson. Haha.. At that time, I was on fire for the club, thinking that we should organize events and make our club shines. I should blame nobody but myself.
We also moved mattresses to the hall, which consumed a lot of energy.

Inter-College Skills Challenge Closing Ceremony

I experienced another breakthrough during the Inter-College Skills Challenge, I slept at 3 o'clock in the morning as we need to on duty and I woke up in 6 something to in-charge in the table tennis competition. I was tired, and my breakfast was Brand's Chicken Essence to make me awake and alert.

Nevertheless, study is still a student's priority. Knowing well that I am not good at Java programming, I struggled to make myself understand the concept. Thank God and thank to my friend's help, I managed to master the subject, and get a B+ at the end of the day. Maybe B+ is not that excellent in your eyes, but I did do my best. I admit that if I realized earlier that I need to work hard and started to work hard, I might get a better result for that subject.Well, it is futile to cry over split milk, so I did not, but I give thanks with a grateful heart.

Of course, there are many things happened along the semester, these are just a few of them.
Maybe you would ask me why am I putting myself in the troubles, as in joining those events, being part of the committees. From the second I was selected as the club's chairperson, I knew very well that my responsibility is to run the club, make sure it shines and active all the time. Then, you might ask me why I want to be the chairperson. The answer would be I always love to lead and gain experiences from it.

My group, Music Group in charged in the farewell.

Though I was stressed that time and managed to survive by God's strength, I am not regret, as those activities and challenges colored my life; I am a student who study to the fullest and also do things outside the classroom.

Semester 3:

Semester 3 is a big contrast compared to Semester 2, as I only have six hours class per week. This allowed me to watch movie almost every night. =)

Our hard work was finally paid off when our club was awarded as the Most Persevering Club and one of our events, INTI- UC 14km Run was the Best Collaborative Event.

The trophy.

At Installation Night.

My farewell.

My farewell.

I went out with Winnie Ngui today, a friend whom I have known for eight years. We spent two hours updating each other about hot news, and another two hours shopping.


Highlight for today: I LOST MY CAR'S KEY!!!
Special thanks to Winnie, my mum, my aunties, and my mum's colleague for helping out.
Thank God that He gives me peace. =)
