Chess – The Game of Life

Chess is a very unique game. It is one of the very few games that is able to relate the game to life.

In a game of chess, the main objective is to capture the King. It will not be an easy task. There are many steps to reach this goal; to move the queen, or to move the knight, or to move the pawn. Every move you make will either create or destroy opportunities. For every careless move, you will have to bear the consequences. From the mistakes, learn from it. You will have to predict your opponent’s moves, seek new opportunities and analyze the game.

In real life, a person has a main goal to achieve. It will not be an easy task for there are many obstacles to overcome. There are many ways to reach this goal. For every action that person makes, it will either lead to opportunities or disasters. For every careless action that person makes, he/she will have to face the consequences and accept the responsibility. For every failure, learn from it. The person has to predict the consequences of his actions, grab opportunities and analyze the situation.

Don’t these two have similar concepts?

This makes chess more than just a mere game.

It becomes the lesson of life.

This passage is dedicated to my fellow 5SC1 friends

The Journey of Young Turtles

It all started when we hatched from the same nest, 5SC1. At that time, we all had one common goal to share, which was to excel in the SPM. And so our battle began. We raced each other to be the best in class, to be the first to reach the sea of success. Along the way, we encountered many predators. Many eagle-eyed teachers who ‘looked down’ at us from the skies above. But then again, just as many teachers helped build our class’s strengths. Moral guidelines, advice and teachings are still treasured till this very day. And I thank them all for that. Well, we somehow managed to pave through all those challenges and passed SPM. But the journey certainly did not stop there. Now, we face the varsity of the ocean of life and share one common question; “Where do I go next?” Some ventured to the seas of Australia, India, UK while others stayed in the local shores of Malaysia. Some travel alone while others travel in groups. Whatever it is, I wish all of you the very best in what you do.

My Blog Lyrics(edited from This Ain't A Scene by Fall Out Boys)

"This Ain't A scene, It's An Arms Race"

I am an blog writer
Fitting you with blogs in the form of words
And I don't really care, which
As long as the blogs keep being written
That's just the business I'm in

This ain't a block, it’s a god damn blog space
This ain't a block, it’s a god damn blog space
This ain't a block, it’s a god damn blog space
I'm not a person to cry on, but I write blogs

I'm a blogging man
And the blogs I write are oh so interesting, oh so interesting
I'm a blogging man
And the blogs I write are oh so interesting, oh so interesting

I wrote the blogs on giving up
(You look pretty sinking)
But the real blogs have already been written
(bloggers up the gutter)
At night we're writing your trash blog while you sleep
Crashing not like hips or cars
No, more like b-b-b-blogs

This ain't a block, it’s a god damn blog space
This ain't a block, it’s a god damn blog space
This ain't a block, it’s a god damn blog space

Blog words are full. Please, write another

I'm a writing man
And the blogs I write are oh so interesting oh so interesting
I'm a writing man
And the blogs I write are oh so interesting, oh so interesting

All the boys who their blogs written didn't get noticed
And all the girls whose hands couldn't type fast enough
write until your hands give out

This ain't a block, it’s a god damn blog space
This ain't a block, it’s a god damn blog space
(Now you)
This ain't a block, it’s a god damn blog space
(Wear out the groove)
This ain't a block, it’s a god damn blog space
(write out fast)
This ain't a block, it’s a god damn blog space
(Oh, oh)
This ain't a block, it's a god damn blog space

I'm a writing man
And the blogs I write are oh so interesting, oh so interesting
I'm a writing man
And the blogs I write are oh so interesting, oh so interesting
