    I took my UPSR papers, which represented the second three years of my education and played an extremely vital role in moving on to secondary education.

  • Met Shailinder

    Fellow scholars, he was the dude with the most common interests with me, except perhaps my brother. The difference was he believed in science wheras my brother doesn't. He does not, however, like current affairs, likewise I do not like math.

  • Came to Nexus

    I joined Nexus, which really changed the way I thought and the way I learn. It also exposed me to a very different learning environment for what I was used to. It did me a lot of good, as it led me on to plenty of meaningful field of studies.

  • Transition

    This was the period when I started to dramatically change my viewpoint on the world and got interested in science and modern history.

  • Voyager 2 Space probe

    I found out that humans had probes travelling out of the Solar System. Really shocked me and encouraged me to learn more about astronomy.

  • Ipoh Trip

    This was my first school trip or even my first outing with friends. I guess it was alright, though it didn't alter my reluctance to socialize by going to shopping centers, parties, or whatnot.
