This is not a poem, or whatever you call it. It just isn’t it.
Well, this is about a boy whose important date is on the 18th of February, 4 days after the Valentines day.
Well, this boy was actually scheduled to be born on the 14th of Feb, 1993, the date no any other human are unfamiliar with, the Valentine’s day.
However, due to some “technical” problem, the birth was delayed to 18th of Feb, 1993. maybe the couple doesn’t want the baby boy to interrupt their romance in the coming valentine’s day celebration of many years to come.
Entering year 0, the boy was born in a family consisting a mom and a dad. The dad, as the chairman of the church-building committee (which was considered quite a VIP person), makes people put high hopes on the little baby, who escaped death’s grasp thanks to G6PD syndrome.
Entering year 6, the little boy graduated from kindergarden with satisfying result, lovedby teachers, and even the principal of the kindergarden.
Entering year 7, the boy started his primary schooling in SJK CHUNG HUA Bintulu, as a little boy in 1H.
Entering year 10, the boy had to leave his friends, pals from school (class 3I, best class) and church, and moved to Kuching, the city of cats, resumed his primary schooling in SJK CHUNG HUA No. 6, where he studied in class 4 Merah and was astounded by his capability of doing well in academics.
Entering year 13, the boy entered SMK Sungai Maong with his gang of friends, studied in class form 1H (again), one of the top class in the school. The boy expected his secondary years to be spent there……
Entering year 13 and ¼ , the boy leaves SMK Sungai Maong and go for SMK Green Road, where he faced difficulty in leaving a bunch of friends again and in accustoming himself to the new GREEN GREEN environment. Again, he studied in 1A, the top class of the school.
Entering year 17, the young man is now studying in 5S1, and is now facing his major exam, SPM, and also some difficulties concerning life. Though he may feel troubled at times, he cannot afford to show his weakness, as he was been put up a high hope by his family. He’s the “tough one” in the eyes of people, who posses no flaw and limitations. He worked along in the dark and duel with his own difficulties, alone, and along with some pals.
Entering year 17, the young man may looked tough, but a well-aimed attack will destroy the young man, like a crumbled old abandoned house.
Entering year 17, the young man still learns about sincerity, which he was advice to work on in his 14th year by his senior, in some affiliations.
Entering year 17, the young man discovered the need to change, to change his natural “lame” traits, which has been part of him since the “lame” gene was discovered. Being less lame, is his goal.
Entering year 17, the young man had his mind twisted with some teenage angst : “Girl Problem”. Though he tried to apply academic stuffs in working out a boy-girl-relationship, he flunked. He really think he sucks in that particular field……
Entering year 17, the young man realizes that he is now standing between the society-school gap, where he is exposed to hideous elements lurking in the society, while sheltered from parental and school’s protection.
Entering year 17, the young man still tries to improve his interaction skills, because his words are always misunderstood as something bad, which is not what he mean, most of the time. He discovered the ugly truth, that people are dealing with each other with a mask on, hiding their true feeling and faces. He also found out that people are particularly sensitive about words and had learnt through the hard way that he had to choose his words carefully in his talking………
Entering year 17, the young man discovered that he was not ready yet to grow up, to become a grown man; but at the same time having a strong craving of becoming a grown man.
Entering year 17, the young man reevaluates his capability of balancing between the good and bad.
Entering year 17, the young man fights for his destiny, by looking beyond the looking glass. He is tired of listening to his families and relatives, who put high hopes on him, hoping him could become a doctor, becoming the pride of the clan. And also he is exhausted for the hopes coming from his family-in-Christ, who encourages him to become GOD’s servant.
Entering year 17, the young man finally knew that he had the right to made his own choice, though he’s often disrupted by other people’s opinion.
Entering year 17, the young man missed his last year in SMK Green Road and is going to enjoy every moment in it.
Entering year 17, the young man is doing something stupid by inscripting the word “PASSION” on his left wrist.
Entering year 17, the young man again thanked God for granting him another year to live.
