Well. So I was in a post CT craze for the past week i haven't bothered to update. And since this is a long weekend i decided to well, post, on well, CTs. Hmm. Let's start with Science. Jiahui pwned all butts as usual. 39.5/40. NERF NERF NERF. IMBA. Daniel, Wenjie and Kenneth Goh got offered R(A) for Science, but Jiahui didn't! Omg. Conspiracy!
My Science EOY: 81 or 82, 4.0

Hmm. English. Matthew pwned all as usual. 45.5/50! And it was marked by a certain higher authority some more. I bet Matthew will get offered Academy for Lit. He's damn pwn, and he's in RT some more. Lol. Imba. I got owned. 33/50 -.-. Al did his usual emo crap in class, coz he got like 28/50. And the guy who got owned the most by (certain higher authority) was Jon. (Certain higher authority) scribbled red ink all over his paper. You know why? Our dear director put one pound of STEEL in his essay. Haha. What dedication =D. But (certain higher authority) is quite evil. Jon said that Portia used the same method of manipulating the law as Shylock, and she wrote a huge "RUBBISH?!" on his paper. Made Jon emo, but still not al-like.
My English EOY: not sure of score, but lower 3.6 -.-

History. Kenneth Goh pwned this paper. 23/25. Must have gotten help from a certain (quotes diao: Jacked Imba Assassin Yet Inaffected Nearly God-like.) Most of us got pwned by the (certain essay question1 marker), who was really damn strict. Grr... I think like no one got full marks lor. And we got tricked by the question. MALAYA not SINGAPORE! Percival that bum was in Singapore, not Malaya, so we got pwned by that. Mr Shahrom told us we should either write Japs as Pro and British as o.k or British as noobs and Japs as ok. Lolz. I got 21/25. got owned by SEQ marker. zzz. I got offered R(A) for History. Seriously considering applying for it. Although I had wanted to take Lit.
History EOY Score and GPA: 90, 4.0

Geog. For such a controversial paper everyone's marks were very good. Coniferous forests having temperatures over 0C and rainfall of up to 2500mm was still highly controversial and RETARTED (reference) but I guess no one complained coz our marks were fine.
My Geog EOY: 77, 3.6. Grr.
Oh ya got offered R(A) for Geog. Laughs. No chance in hell am i taking up geog next year. Too bad Y____

Maths. Super hard paper in my opinion, although pple like that huge but insignificant someone said the paper was "so easy" and he got 44.5. Pui. oh ya! Jon got 45.5/50! Damn ownage. Jon you imba freak, now then show your true colours right? *Claps* DL got 38, but who gives a damn, he only needed NEGATIVE 7% to get 4.0. Lol. I got pwned. 36.5/50.
My Maths EOY: 85, 4.0

So that's it. It's down to Chinese now. I heard everyone did super badly for the paper, so no high hopes. My Predicted Chinese EOY: Higher 3.2 - Lower 3.6. Wish me luck? Lol.

So, EOY GPA: 3.83 (if chinese 3.2) or 3.88 (if chinese 3.6). Fine I guess.
OH YAH! JIAHUI EOY GPA IS 4.0. IMBA
Time to enjoy the holidays. YEAH!

Yay. Science CTs weren't as hard as I thought they would be. Apart from a few stupid mistakes on my part, like 1175+400 = 1675 (Yes. stupid. horribly stupid. i know), i guess the paper was fine, with your usual simple picture inference bonus question, this time with a fat globe-head pointing a nuke at himself like a gun. Ah well.

Maths tomorrow. Last paper. Yay! *goes into a series of "one more" chants* Rumours say that the paper will be very hard, but we're all up for a challenge aren't we =D.

Quotes of the day:

"Eloctrons" - Jon

"When you bombard the nucleus with neutrons it fizzes (fissions) right?" - Jon again!

"So, to make plutonium-239 you bombard uranium-235 with neutrons right?" - Who else? Jon! =D

Ok. I just found out a most interesting thing about this blog skin. I can't post more than one post in one day, or the rest of the posts for that day can't be seen. Why? Don't ask me. So from now on if i make more posts I will just add on and put the time at the end. I can live with it, but please mourn the loss of my initial posts from september 30th to October 7th. Boohoo. Ah well. 400 hits in less than 20 days of existence. thanks guys! =D - 7.10 pm

Short post. Just to tell you that I think we all got punk'd. History CTs. Mug so much just to get asked a question similar to a revision question Mr. Shahrom went through with us in class. The irony. Lol. But hey we should all be happy that it was an easy paper! =D

Science! ahh! Science! Physics! AHH! So hard! Ahhh...

P.s. If you would notice there is now a mini stat counter at the bottom. for matthew's sake. haha. but yeah it's useful =)

I vow. Never to vote or give a damn about the Prefectorial Elections in this school for the rest of my life in RI. Never.

Why? Coz of all the wrong people who get in to the PB. Yes, so everyone I voted got in. Biquan, Nigel Fong, Yingjie, Guo Wei. Yep. Responsible (not to mention un-retarded) people who deserve the right to lead our school to greater heights. However, all the people I would have voted against if I was given the chance to, got in too.

Arrogance. Sheer arrogance. That's why I did not vote for you. That's why I don't understand how the heck you got into PB. You know who you are. With a disgusting sense of arrogance and blind confidence, you just make a fool of yourself when you put your stuck-up face on posters and up on the podium.

If you are reading this, I am telling this to you straight in your bloody stuck-up face, and you better listen up and get this into that smallish brain and gargantuan ego of yours. Listing your acheivements one by one in BIG BOLD letters does not garner votes. It garners discontent, laughter and pure irritation. You go up on stage without any substance at all, and instead you make a fool of yourself and poison the image of one of my favourite bands.

Where's the substance? Why the heck should we vote for you? How did you get into the PB? Most of all, when in hell are you gonna get rid of that huge ego which sticks out like a bloody sore thumb? If you keep going on like that, people will just hate you more, your ego will outgrow even that big head of yours. Apres-ça, tu explosera, et tout le monde sera ravi.

So, for as long as the above-mentioned remains in the PB, and until they allow me to cast negative votes for people I do not want into the PB, I will clean my hands of the Prefectorial Elections of 2007 and 2008.

"Of all the causes that conspire to blind
Man's erring judgment, and misguide the mind,
What the weak head with strongest bias rules,
Is pride, the never-failing vice of fools." - Alexander Pope

Get THAT into that huge head of yours.



The irony (No references to Abel, although it is clearly a nick slapped on him by a certain higher authority)

The cruel, cruel irony *Proceeds to argue about the controversy of Geog CTs*. No seriously. Sec 2 Geog CT Paper 2006 must be the greatest conspiracy in the history of mankind. Questions taken out (wholesale) of "O" level books, careless mistakes by teachers who practically give you a 50:50 for MCQ question 1 (although that was no doubt helpful for all of us), and weird graphs (which account for 10marks) which were ALSO copied out of 'O' level books, and which make no sense. Seriously. The 'O' level book says that the area with 500-1200mm of rainfall and temperature ranging from like 0-15C is coniferous.

Completely different from what we have studied, and completely, completely wrong. Coniferous forests have a mean temerature of around NEGATIVE 5C. NEGATIVE. And I am so damn sure they have 500-1200mm of rainfall lor. Crazy paper. Crazy 'O' level book. I just hope that they don't mark blindly according to that screwed up book. Our CA marks are already screwed up thanks to a certain human being(although everything points to the fact that his/her existence as a true human being is highly unlikely) who must not be named. (eeks. Voldermort. Come to think of it this person is not far off, only that Voldermort must be like 999........... times smarter than him/her. But fugly this person indeed is. Without a bloody doubt.)

Save the forests? Damn. Save our geog marks first.

Suicide Videos.
Once again a stroke of genius on the part of Nigel



Hope you had a good laugh. Coz the videos rock, and there's not a damn thing u can do about it.

Friday the 13th.

A day of bad luck, darkness, misery. Upon this day all who are mortal shalt enter a frightening realm of darkness. Crows fly past my window as I am typing this in blood stained hands, cursing me with their haunting, defeaning cry. Bad luck dawns upon me, as though I had walked under a thousand towering ladders, which dwarf even the largest of mankind. You are not spared either. Friday the 13th haunts everyone, curses everyone and kills everyone, including you. Pray hard that you survive this terrible day, and if you don't, may the lord have mercy on your soul... As the spirits around you watch your every move, prepare to meet your maker.

Don't look behind you.

First, of Mr Shahrom. Possibly the most humorous teacher we have ever had. Definitely not as boring as your average history teacher. After today's lesson I thought I took the time to reflect on this. Packed with his infamous quotes like "I'll kill you until you die", he really never hesitates to let his cool and satirical humour stand out. One more thing, he is damn pro at jacking his pupils who misbehave, which common offenders like Abel should know pretty well by now.

First offender. Mark. In class quite long ago, Mark made a stupid and distracting joke, saying the Japanese had "ZERO(0)" Fighters. Haha, very punny mark -.- so you think the rest of the class would just go "lame" or something, but guess what. Mr Shahrom walked up to him, then went like "Haha so funny. I cant stop laughing.." in a comical way, then after suanning Mark repeatedly, got the support of the rest of the class, then went up to mark and said, "Damn jacked right?". Hilarious. Mark was damn pissed and gave his innocent look, but i'm sure he had a good laugh after that.

Second case. Wei Rong and Abel. They forgot to bring their worksheets, so Mr Shahrom made them sit beside him, and address him as emperor! (In accordance with our study on Jap Militarism. How fitting.) Then after they address him as emperor, they had to scream "BANZAI!". So let say Mr Shahrom went, "Abel can you switch of the lights please?", then Abel had to go, "Yes my emperor, BANZAI!" and raise his fists in the air. Damn Damn hilarious. We all had a really good laugh, Mr Shahrom, the rest of the class, Abel and Weirong alike.

Third case. Humans Room. Chester and Ken Tang, following that other members of the class. Chester and Kenneth Tang had laughed when Mr Shahrom said Mao (as in chairman mao), coz of a really sick reason you dont wanna know. So Mr Shahrom made Ken Tang stand up, turn around to face the class, and say Mao ZeDong to the class 10 times. Every time anyone laughed, that person would take over. It was damn funny. One by one pple in class continued the little chain thing, while I stayed away by burying my face and hiding my laughter. haha =D. Damn funny.

Fourth and most recent case. Abel and Yu Hsuen. Ultraman! basically mr shahrom was talking to us about seperation, and the Malay Ultras, so Abel and Yu Hsuen kept laughing about ultraman and stuff, so when Mr Shahrom got pissed, he made Abel and Yu Hsuen stand up and do an Ultraman sign, you know the one where u cross ur hands like a retard, for the rest of the lesson. Again, we all had a good laugh.

I think what's special about Mr Shahrom's scolding methods is, everyone has a good laugh, including the punished students themselves, and the students still learn from their mistakes. When other teachers scold they just get damn pissed, then the whole class is like quiet and moody and in no mood for the lesson.

Conclusion. Satirical humour is good in any class. Any setting. Yay for humour. lol.

Of Beatboxing. Today for assembly we had a performance by the Beats Society(something like that). No, it's not some charity organisation, but a hip-hop group kind of thing. It was damn fun(ny). Definitely audience participation wasn't lacking, with people going up there, dancing and making weird, sick sounds. Lol. and CHESTER went up! He was asked to do a rap along with a group of "beatboxers", including NIGEL FONG! Lol. He amused the audience with his usual cool stuff, but when he started rapping the whole 2P flipped in laughter. He was rapping our MOV script! Damn pro and damn funny. =D

But I must say the highlight of the show was their beatboxer, Zul Maestro or something like that. They say he is the numero uno beatboxer in S'pore, and boy did he live up to his name. The whole audience was completely taken aback by his performance lor. Damn pro! Really really really uber shockingly proded. What a gift that guy has. Even the teachers were enjoying themselves, especially Mr Shahrom who was like laughing, clapping and nearly falling off his seat in amazement. He still gots the teen in him. Lol.

Really really amazing performance. Really.

CTs in 2 days. Great... Ah well. Mugging mode initialised.
No one likes CTs. We all know that. The stress, the long tiring hours straining your eyes trying to read your history and geography textbooks, the restrictions from watching TV, playing blah blah blah, and of course, the paper itself.

Mdm Kwek said she had one student whose sister LOVED exams coz she was damn pro and was happy that during the exams she could prove how good she was and then make herself happy by showing off her capabilities to everyone else. How freakishly crazy and ego -.-

Anyway, to me one of the biggest problems of CTs, is actually trying to dig through the mountains of junk at home to find the important notes/books we need for mugging. I mean, it's trying the impossible. Half of the time you can't find anything, instead you have the daunting pile of notes in a bigger mess than it ever was in before. I personally have lost my entire physics file and interactive geog 3 textbook. Now isn't that brilliant -.- With CTs around the corner liao, i better find those stuff fast, or i will be on my way to destruction.

So, as we fight bravely to get through these torrid times, good luck to everyone for the CTs!
And may the lord have mercy on your souls...

Miss Hanna flamed us today. really really flamed us. First, a bunch of us came back really late from recess coz we went to RJ. The queues at RJ are long, and somehow the service is just damn slow compared to ours at RI. Maybe it's coz ours is packet food, and it's alot easier for the vendors to deal out food. Ya I guess so. People like Ken only got his food at like 1125. So when we ran back to class frantically at like 1130, Miss Hanna was standing there, clearly damn pissed. So after a minor telling off, the lesson started. Somehow I just noticed Miss Hanna wasn't in her usual mood today. She was alot less intolerant of our noise today, and I knew that soon enough she would blow her top. And guess what? She did. About 45 mins through the lesson, she just threw her marker down and screamed at us.

She was really pissed at how distracted we were, and our short attention span. She told Isaac to go into the Project Room and then scolded Abel and told him to like stand at the corner of the class and face the wall. Then she came back to the rest of us, and started telling us about how 2P was the worst class in the whole GE batch academically, and how in every meeting among the teachers our class was always a problem brought up, how we have bad work attitude etc.

It just made me reflect quite abit, about our class as a whole. I mean ya, so maybe our academic sux. Still, what makes 1/2P special is our class spirit, something which a few classes, although academically proficient, lack. The Drama Production was full proof of how well our class can do when we put in our best into something and work together towards a common goal. Many teachers who have taught us have said that our class has the strongest class spirit they've seen. There is simply no doubt about that. Even when we get badly scolded by a teacher because of a few particular people, we do not go around blaming/hating those people, or desperately trying to prove our innocence and giving a retarded I am innocent how can you blame me face, except for one or two people, whose names i shall not mention. This spirit to me is far more important than being academically proficient. What makes a class special is how they bond together and the spirit they share with each other. Honestly I take away alot more from being in a class with maginificent spirit than with a class of cold inhuman beings with wonderful results.

We have been through ups and downs together, and we have had our problems, but no matter what, 2P will always rock. Always.

Damn. Due to quite a dumb technical error, all the posts for September are now under the october archives. Don't ask why. It's really really quite a stupid error on my part, and I don't know how to correct it. Lol.

Yay! Our class won a GOLD for the Drama Challenge!!! Mrs Smith annouced the results yesterday during morning assembly. We were all like damn nervous as she announced the classes who got silver. "The classes receiving silver are: 2L, 2J, 2M and 2Q (the order i forgot liao)" When we heard that we were all damn happy, and when she announced: "The classes winning gold are: 2K and 2P", we were completely elated. Biquan went up to the front faced his class and did a little cheer thing haha. Congratulations to 2K too! See Jon? What did we tell you. There's no point worrying. At the start you keep saying others damn pro la, we will kena owned la and in the end, we owned all of their butts. Well cheers to Jon for being our constantly going crazy director who brought us to this success. I think we owe it to the scriptwriters. Somehow I think the rhyming scheme in your script really impressed the judges! Of course the actors were damn pwnage. Chester was like damn pro, Yu Hsuen, Ben and Wei Rong were really really good, and Joel and Matthew were a great Portia and Nerissa. Not forgetting Zeb and ZM, and Ken's little cameo. lolz.

Later in the day even better news came. Chester said that he found out our class was actually better than 2K. That means we put up the best show among all the Sec 2 GE classes. Woot! Also, we were told that our class had been picked to perform in some literature event thingy! (at HCI, but nvm it's good anyway) Time for the actors to get back into character and memorise their lines. Time for the artists to repair and(in Mr Law tone) BEEAAUTIFY their props. For me and Jiahui, time to get used to a new lighting system, and work hard to dazzle the crowd with amazing, flashy lights. Lol.

All in all...It's time for 2P to move back...onto center stage.

I am 2 things right now. Happy about our move into our new classroom and disappointed about the dialogue session after school.

First, more about our new classroom. It rocks! After morning assembly everyone loaded all their stuff and moved towards the new block. Wah major major human traffic jam. Still, when we got up to our classrooms we were greeted with our amazing new classrooms. Everything looks stylish and modern, but best of all, the aircon is damn shiok, and the room is super wide. We are on the 5th floor, so it's a long and tiring climb up the stairs every morning. Luckily we have the lift! (but only can be used from next week haiz..) So after that there was this opening ceremony thing, where everyone on all 6 floors went to their corridors to greet a tiny little Mr Mag at the bottom with a group of prefects. After a short speech by him the entire block did a spirit cheer and a unite cheer which tested the foundations of the new building (which thankfully stood) From our classroom we can look at what 2M, the class beside us is doing.

There's this project area thing in between both classes with glass windows we can look through. lol. We thought we could change in those rooms but god, there are windows all over the damn place. I must say one more unfortunate thing is the HUGE corridor windows thorugh which the teachers can now see everything we are doing in class, so people will get screwed more for like playing in class etc.

I know it might sound stupid, but the cupboards are quite fun! You can squeeze 4-5 people in the bottom floor, and as such we took some random videos of CLONES(Jon that's you) and represented the cupboard as a cloning machine, in a most amusing fashion. Lol. (Warning: Claustrophobic people should not try cupboard. Will die of shock immediately. It's damn squeezy inside. lol)

Ah well back to the dialogue session. The topic? The merger of GE and SE from next year onwards. To be honest it was a silly waste of 2 hours. Not that the intentions of our DHM wasn't genuine, but she did not really answer our questions. We were there to bring out our concerns, hoping that they could reconsider their decision and listen to us, but all she did was give us a few unsatisfying answers and ask us about other unrelated topics like our CTs. In the end we arrived at nothing, nothing at all. The point is that we are not mainly concerned with the SE and GE being put together and the attitudes that would be brought forth (although the marginalisation we may face is one concern), but it is how we seem to be the guinea pigs for their new untested system. We have developed a bond, a strong sense of identity among our batch for the past 2 years, and to abruptly end this strong friendships halfway through our Secondary school life, at the MOST important phase of our life in RI, is quite saddening and unnecessary.

All they tell us is we must learn to adapt, and have "cha-me-lon" instincts (not being seditious as usual, don't arrest me) Yes we agree, but the point is that sometimes in life, you must hold onto the bonds you have for a longer period of time such that they become stronger. Having to adapt to new systems and friends frequently does develop independence, adaptability and flexibility, but such a system will only produce cold and unfeeling people.

Unfortuately, we have no room for argument, and the guy who prepared the petition should give up all his hopes and shred the petition to pieces, since we have no hope of convincing the school administration. So, I guess we must take it in a good light, and be GOOD LITTLE guinea pigs for the government's constantly abrupt changes to their education system. We must try our best to lower the degree of trouble and disadvantages we will face, and not let this affect the crucial years of our life in RI. And granted there are some really good frens I have in SE that I am probably looking forward to working with if I get the chance. I am just a little disappointed, that's all.

Remember, as a most (in)famous speaker once said, we must not let our heart rules over our head.

The sense of relief is amazing. We have been rushing our A-bomb project for the past few days, repeatedly meeting at Chester's house till late at night. I must say the one thing in that house i am most impressed by is the dog. Ches has this huge husky, which is really really nice, really really tame and really really smart. It's like the dog doesn't bark and doesn't bite. In fact after determining you're not there to kill her, she will raise her paw to shake your hand. Damn cute. Y

Yesterday, the dog ran out of its little backyard home, and we spent a hell lot of pains trying to get it back in. When you use food to lure it back, she will follow you all the way, eating her fill, and then at the gate, she will stop, look, growl at you and run away. It's like, me, wenjie and jiahui put together couldn't outwit that dog. In the end, the master, Ches, was the only one who could control the tired dog, and with a little help from Wenjie leashed it and brought it back in. F.Y.I it bit Wenjie, and wenjie was swearing at the dog the rest of the day. Hahaha.

Today was RE congress (i.e. super slack day minus lessons minus books) Presentation after presentation came, but I must say that the Science presentations in the morning was well, boring. We didn't understand half of the cheeminology presented to us, so how the hell do we ask questions? Like someone said, when they explain their terms there would just be more terms within the explanation, and it will get worse and worse and worse.

At least the Social Sciences Final in the LT was much better, with interesting presentations (THAT WE COULD UNDERSTAND) on the freaky Urban Legends of RI, highlighters and of course, who could forget Johnny the Cockroach & Co. Well 2moro we are moving to the new classroom block(or the S. Rajaratnam teaching block), which according to Jiahui still has no computer, projector, speaker etc. Bad news, we are on the 5th floor. Good news, there is a lift~! Bad news, we don't get to use it after morning assembly. Good news, we get to use it ANY OTHER TIME!!! (except when teachers wanna use. haiz.) Still, the feeling of moving into a fresh new environment always rocks. Today after class, we happily ripped everything on our boards to shreds, although i had to salvage the important chinese results which YOU pple were inches away from tearing to shreds. -.-

Lol. Another long post.

Monday, October 02, 2006

Oh ya, on a side note. Jon, (if you're reading this) why don't you accept your fate. The Island is an exact reflection of what is happening to us now Jon. We are all clones in a cruel world, where after a living a less than fulfilling life we will be subjected to being cruelly used as tools to the means of those in the real world. Jon look around you. Nothing around you is real, nothing around you is genuine Jon. We and everything around us are merely copies of reality, with the only true purpose of awaiting death so that we can keep the real world alive. It is pitiful, It is saddening, but it is fate, and we have no way of escaping, as such we should just accept it and wait for our time to come.

Every moment we don't get killed is just delaying the inevitable Jon. There's no point denying it Jon, for it is our life, our fate and our destiny.

We have all accepted our destiny. Accept yours.

Philo and Phil-Ho (This is gonna be a long post so read all the way down!)

Today during Philo we watched a most interesting movie, while one by one groups of 4 were called out for dialogue observation. My group screwed up discussing on whether crossing the road when it was a red light was morally wrong. According to Mr Low we didn't use enough of the philosophical theories we had learnt. Ah well, back to the show. "The Island" is about this secret company in 2019(thanks and no thanks to wenjie for the exact year). Well what this company does is they clone human beings and keep these clones in a hi-tech world, where everyone wears like the same white outfits, and there are cool hi-tech stuff like a toilet bowl which can do a urine test on the spot and give you tips on your diet etc. which are flashed to you on a little marquee screen above your toilet. Freaky. These clones don't have a bright future though. When someone in the real world needs an organ transplant, there will be this scam lottery, and the so called "winner" will so called be sent to this island, which of course doesnt exist at all. Instead, these winners actually get themselves cut open(quite gruesome) and their organs would be removed for transplant into the body of the human in the real world.

The clones in this little futuristic world don't know that they are clones, and don't know their true purpose, until Lincoln, played by Ewan Mcgregor, witness one of these "trips" to "the island", and knowing that his friend Jordan 2 Delta, played by Scarlett Jonhansson had just won the so called lottery, he warns her of the danger and so together they try to escape, entering the real world and in the end...(Warning: No spoilers, too bad)

During CLE, we welcomed a most suprising guest back to RI. Yep Phil Ho was back, armed with his usual bow tie and bluetooth headset. This time he wasn't here to give a talk on teenage crime and how people would cry in front of him after he buys $100 toys for them. This time the self-proclaimed talented speaker Mr. Ho would give us a talk on career development. I guess he was genuine in the message he was trying to bring across, but a hint of arrogance and contradicting statements just marred the genuinity of what he was trying to impart to us. He was almost showing off to us his acheivements in life, proudly showing us his wonderful career chart, the comments other people gave about him, the people from all walks of life who engage him for talks. I mean ya, we know you are a successful man and we respect that, but there is no point going on about your acheivements. Also, he said that "contentment" is the real wealth, but as the talk went on he gave random distracting comments on how people pay him $5000 to have lunch with him and how people even pay him $25,000 just to give a talk. Accompanied with hard to read powerpoint slides and a short i don't know for what video clip, his talk on a whole didn't appeal entirely to me, although this guy does have substance and is genuine in the message he's bringing across.

This is not a personal attack, and I am not purposely insulting him or being seditious and asking him to arrest me. It's just my personal opinion on how he presented himself. Whether you agree or not, it's up to you.

Anyway aside from that Oral Comm today was quite interesting i guess. First Mr Yeo started off with how wonderful he found 2M's play, and commented that they would win. No way man our class rocked. We owned 2M and 2Q and we will win! =D Haha. Then, he gave his usual life lessons, and then we did a feedback form. I personally feel that Mr Yeo has been a very inspiring and no doubt entertaining teacher for this entire course, and is definitely a par above the other Oral Comm teachers we have had. and then for the 2nd half of the period he picked random pple out to speak on impromptu topic. I was damn suay lor, I was going like please not me please not me then, "Can I have Mr Ng, Jarrell." I was like wtf, and then i screwed up talking about what it's like being an only child. -.- However I must say Abel and Pek were very good, especially Pek, who talked about the "disturbing" side of China. Then it sparked off into a talk about the state of cleanliness in China. In China, their public toilets are sometimes just a dug out trench between two walls where the crap will pile up until the rain comes to wash it away. Then in China, the kids have these flaps on their pants, and when they wanna *coughs* let go, they just open the flap and let go wherever they are, whether in a train station, or on the streets. Also on the streets, you can have mucus splashing at you while you are going through a "dodge'em" with piles of mucus on the floor. And in the lower classes of train stations, you can have peanut shells all over the place and pple who smell bad squezzing into trains with you. Eek.


What a long post. -.-

Ok let's start off on a better note. I just thought posting a highly thought provoking and retarted(note: not spelling error, not being seditious or anything) post at the start would, you know, be "interesting". This is a really old issue but I just found this and it's really amusing. Have fun! (P.s. Move around using mouse and press left click to flick Zidane's head at Materazzi Clones. Not as easy as it seems!)

Identity... What does it mean to all of us?

Are we who we really are? Are we really who we want ourselves to be? Do WE know who we really are, what we really want and how we really want ourselves to be like? Or are we just another replicate in this world we live in?

Hypocrisy... Are we guilty of it?

In this world no one knows what the people around you are truly thinking, feeling, doing. With the expectations and responsibilities that come our way in life, people put on a different personality, and to us that serves as his identity. Are we staying true to our identity? The question is...Are YOU guilty of hypocrisy? Have YOU lost your true identity...?

Throughout this blog you will witness my thoughts, my feelings, my life. Am I being hypocritic? Am I truly who I seem to be? Have I lost my identity? You be the judge...
