Japan Day 1 Part 1, Tokyo

Quote of the day : The first step you take is always the most important one. The first steps you take on any journey won't get you where you want to go. But without those first steps and the many more that follow, you would always be standing right where you are, looking towards the future and wondering what it would really be like to see your world the way you always dreamed it could be. One of the greatest lessons in life is the one you learn about moving forward and taking steps to reach your goals.

From Cyberia to LCCT by taxi.

WeiHong, he is so excited on the way to LCCT.

High School Batu Pahat #1

I think most people have heard this two cute girl, Janice and Sonia, or more know as Jayesslee sing. Here is their testimony that I would like to share with all of you here.

Take 11 minutes of your life to listen to their testimony. =)

Before this, I had posted some pictures of my secondary school. This is the main building of my secondary school, which was built in 1918 and officiated in 1919. (But Highschool was established in 1914)
