I can come up with tons of excuses to explain about my disappearance but the truth is I WAS LAZY :)
Recently, my girlfriend gave me a task, she requested me to write a blog entry about myself, after some consideration I decided to go for and that's why this entry's title is my full name.
THE NAME PART
I always introduce myself as Jon Keith Guo Zhongwen to everyone I met but my name on my NRIC is only
Guo Zhongwen.
I got my name Jon from my auntie during I was primary 5, she suggested that having a English/Christian name will it make a lot easier for people to remember my name so she gave me my first English name Jonathan.
I remembered during I was primary 6, I started to write my name as Jonathan on all my PETS workbooks and worksheets. One day, my English teacher stood in front of the whole class and asked, "Who is Jonathan?, can Jonathan please come out". I took me about 2 minutes to muster all the courage I could mustered and stood up, walk towards him and told him, "I am Jonathan." I clearly remembered seeing my teacher rolled his eyes and told me. "It's a really nice name but you can't just put your name as Jonathan."
The next thing I remembered was my whole class laughing at me and comments like "Try to act cool", "Hahaha shameless" were flying all over the classroom, this was really one of the most embarrassing moments of my life.
I was really embarrassed after that and I stop using the name Jonathan for quite sometime, This continue all the way until I finished my 'O' levels which is failed TERRIBLY and had to go to a private school named 'YMCA'.
There at YMCA I met new friends and people, I still introduced myself as Zhongwen until one particular friend name "Boon" said (this is his exact words) "You got ANG MOH name or not", I told him, "you can call me Jon." and he said. "Jon Ah! Aiya why you don't say earlier, Zhongwen, Zhongwen very difficult to call." and so the name stick to me since then.
So what about the Keith part? The name Keith came to me about a few years ago. I just finished my NS and since I lost about 13kg and no longer looked so fat, I started to be vain, all the way to the point of metro. So one day my buddy came to me and said, "Jon! you looked very Keith today." I was like what you mean by very Keith today? It was months later then I realised Keith = Gay looking. I really like the name Keith so I being using it since then no matter is it gay or not.
THE THINGS THAT I LIKE PART
Since I was a kid, I had been a dead hard fan of video games, I could spent 2 days 2 night playing non stop till the point that my parents threw away my console once, but I secretly got it back and continue gaming.
My parent finally realized they can't stopped me and gave up trying.
Counting all the consoles I ever had, there was the Nintendo, the Sega, Gameboy, Gameboy advance, PS One, PS2, PS3, PSP, Nintendo DS, 3DS(Gift from my girlfriend) and not counting the PCs that I owned.
Gaming had taken up atremendous part of my life, I was never the sporty type, exercising was like a definite no no until I went to NS. Gamers should know that video games are classified under a few genres, there's RPG, action RPG, FPS(First Person Shooting), Hack & Slash, Strategy, Simulation etc etc. My personal favorite is RPG and the game that puts me there was none other than the all time classic Final Fantasy 7 :)
RPG games allows me to experience and live as another person , it allows me to escape the real world when I was playing, its allows me to be the hero I always wanted to be. In video games I was always the knight in shining armor, the hero that saves the world, the one that everyone adores and respects.
I always have passion when it comes to music, I love singing so much that I once thought I was the best, seconded to non than my elder brother until I met a particular individual. I love watching reality show on singing or singing competitions. I always took the advices the judges gave to the participants and applied them on myself. I will jumped on any opportunities I get to perform unless they required me to something not myself. My best years were during my poly when I was in the Song Composing Club. There I met a lot of different individuals who share the same dream as me, we worked hard towards our goal sometimes till the point that we forgotten to eat. I had a stardom dream once but it was complete trashed by someone and came to realized that I really stand no chance in the much later part of my 20s.
I love and hate dancing. I love watching other people dance while I hate myself for unable to do it. I have a body of a log and they don't following orders. Whenever I passed by any dancing competition stage, I will always stopped to take a look, to admire those amazing dance moves and imagining I was the one doing it.

THE TRUE ME PART
I've been a loser for the most of life, which lead to me finding my haven in video games. I was always the one being laughed at, being made fun of, I think this world really discriminates fat people.
This part of my changed when I met Dexter, a full of shit, always up to no good but very smart and hard working guy. I met Dexter at YMCA, even though he being taller, smarter and much more good looking than me, he let me lead, he always listens to my stupid/lame decisions (unless they are really too stupid), He made me realized that there are kind people in the world, people that don't discriminate me because I was fat. Thank you Dex!
My life changed the most when I entered Poly, where I met the 2 most important friends in my life, Wei Jian & Ken. These 2 individuals really loved me as who I am, who I was. They became my beacons of light, they guided me through all minor and major decisions in my life, they gave me wise advices, they partied with me, they went through thick and thin with me and I must say the made me who I am today, they made me the Jon Keith Guo you all see today. Thank you my bros!!!
I am actually a really really lazy person if you leave me alone in my home I think I will rot. I like impromptu, planning isn't my forte, being organized was never a part of me. I was always the follower, I dare to say that I'm a excellent executor, I can carry out instructions really well and sometimes even exceed expectations. I really like the part of not needing me to use my brains but this changed when I met Xinyi.
I am also a very shy person, although I don't portray so but friends who knows me will understand that. It takes forever and endless encouragement before I will so something crazy unless I have a few drinks.
I used to be a spoil brat, I took things for granted. I was bullied during primary and secondary school but I bullied my siblings at home (I am a asshole) I used to always give in to threats, I lied a lot during my teenage years to make myself looked manly, I stole some stuffs during my teenage years (Guilty), I always thought I was a great speaker until Poly, I used to be superficial, I almost died once, I hated my father a long time ago, I was secretly in love with at least 10 girls during 3 short poly years (Oops), I always people the benefit of the doubt no matter how trashy the individual is, I've got a super lousy memory, I smoked when I was 9 but stopped when I was 12, I was so depressed during 2011 that I broke my promise to myself that I wouldn't smoke, I sux academically, I was never the cool guy, I can't look cool (tried and failed BADLY), I always put on a joker look on myself, I am me.
