Journal - Sports Day!

It was my school's Sports Day yesterday. I didn't run for anything this year, because at that time I thought I didn't have the stamina to. Instead, I went for stuff like... first aiding? Marching? Yeah, those stuff. It intrigues me, to think that it was the first time I actually treated casualties proudly in my Red Crescent uniform. Many participants had cramps and sprains. Some fainted, and some got serious injuries from falling. Haizz... when was there a sports event where someone doesn't get injured? I'm not jinxing though! As for marching, it felt really good! (Getting tanned under the sun, yeah.) Although we didn't get any placing for the marching competition, I still had fun burning my face and sweating rivers with my fellow squad mates, my Red Crescent family. Sigh.. I've also been quite occupied lately because big exams are coming near, and there's this History assignment of mine that I have to pass up some time. So I haven't been able to...

Journal - The Annual APC

Just went through my school's Hari Anugerah Pelajar Cemerlang (APC). It's a ceremony for students who achieved excellent results in their examinations in the past year. I just happen to get the highest grade for German, so I was present during the ceremony. The performances were great! The syair  recitation was simply beautiful and pleasant to hear, while the choral speaking was full of enthusiasm. Although, I must say that the 'mini orchestra' could've done better... I wanted to help, but there was nothing I could do considering the circumstances at that time. They tried their best, and that's what's important. It was such an honor for me to get a certificate about my excellence in the German subject. But since I'm aiming for amazing things in the future, my other grades should be amazing as well. I'll work hard and improve to achieve excellence in my studies—for my parents, my school, my future... and myself!

Is Learning Multiple Languages Hard?

Image
A man once told me, "JUST DO IT." 《《ㄧ》》 What a pleasant way to start this post. You're welcome. Now to the topic...      Story time! Ever since I was 11, foreign languages has been a thing in me that keeps me going every day in my life. It's no wonder that I start picking up at least 7 languages just a few years back. At least that time. I forgot most of the things I learnt back then. Although I do remember stuff like pronunciation, reading, writing, etc. The end. People kept asking me—how did I do it? Seemingly inspired, they have either tried before or haven't attempted to do it at all. Isn't it hard? Is it hard? Yes . No one can deny the fact that learning multiple languages is hard, like,  really  hard. You can't even get a good A for your native language test and now ya learnin' a language that's rarely used at your place? (okay, this is directed towards me, I'm the one who should be offended.) sad It's possible...

Nice to Meet you! A Simple 自己紹介

Well, the title says it all. Ehm.. Hey there! Welcome to Jagaimo-chan's Difficult LIFE! . First of all, let me introduce myself. I'm Maya Cold (not my real name, but close). I'm 15 and I live in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I have 12 siblings and I am the third child. I'm a Form 3 secondary school student who's passionate about music (especially piano) and languages. A proud muslim, too! This is just an introduction post, so if you're reading this, you're either out of things to do, curious,  or just happen too see this post somewhere. But anyway, If you're not sure about what stuff I post here, you can head over to my About page. I have it all explained there. (Seriously, I'm actually just lazy to list them here. Don't mind me.) Ooother than that, there's nothing much to say here really. I don't have anything to show...but this 自己紹介 in Japanese. Please enjoy!
