The smell of failure

"I will need to have you people smell your armpits. That is the smell of failure." - Sue Sylvester, Glee

Do you people ever believed in something so strongly, that you were on the "right side", on the side of justice, to find out you were wrong? Or at least, not that righeous? Or even worse, to find out that you are part of the "bad" people, screwing things up?

Well for someone who always trusted his gut, I feel used, I feel doped. I got played. How sad was that? Of course I'm not associated with "bad" people, but at least we're not that righteous, we are not heroes. We just think we are. Somemore, I was warned. I choose to stick with people who are willing to cut me off anytime, than someone who had guided me and someone whom I can trust.

Well enough of that rant. Holidays for the first 3 weeks were all about the concert. The concert was not a success to be blatant, but we're over it. 5 weeks left. What should I do?

I guess Im just gonna let go for now, and just be myself for 5 weeks. Watch all the movies I can, get out of the house as much as I can. Enjoy life.

Concert's over

Well the concert went so-so lah. There were some not-so-good (even funny) moments, some not-too-bad moments.

All instructors and the conductor going to be changed (its all about SYF), but I guess it MAY be a good thing.

Now we don't even know who is our teacher IC.

What can I do?

Finishing with a bang?!

Oh boarding was really awesome. I mean that coming from me is huge, and I'm not just saying that cos others saying so. It WAS good, except for that internet connection. During the afternoons, its still decent, but when it came to the night it gets really nasty. How nasty? Not being able to load google - That's nasty.

On the good side of boarding, really a lot of nice people. Unlike one or two people in my class, boarding seems to have the best and most amazing people you can find. And then you have prep time which I really HATE, but then helps like hell in my tests. And of course the new experience of living in a new environment, it was really interesting. And of course when the food in dining hall gets good (after some so-so meals) the pleasure was unimaginable.

Well it has to come one day when I finally blog right? and its been a year since I talk shit about people, well I try not to, but this person really deserves his one minute of shame here in this blog. To top it off, he's a Sec 4 prefect, sad to say unlike any of the prefects I met in boarding, this one here is obnonxious, unfriendly, bad-tempered.

This is how it all happened: On the last day of Term 3 which is Friday, those people in the classroom thought there was no morning assembly (thanks to a mistake made by RInform or something like that). Furthermore, fridays are non-assembly days, and we probably missed the information.

Well, with the proof in our hands, we went down, and got caught by this prefect. And of course after listening to like one line of our explanation, he cut in and decided to record our names. We told him that its the fault of the RInform, and he stopped. And of course now that he CANNOT take down our names, we got scolded by him for not having a sense of urgency. To quote, "You know why I'm pissed? (actually I don't give a shit) Cos you guys are late, and just because you have an excuse, you came walking down slowly (WTH is that??!)"

Alright, yes lack of sense of urgency, but that is our normal speed. But I bet if we ran down, you'll be saying that we're trying to escape and more. This prefect refused to let it go and talked about why he was pissed (note he said "why he was pissed", not "what we did wrong") for 10 more minutes. (At that time I was thinking, there are no school rules of "If you didn't rush if you're late, you'll be booked", so if he really booked us, he's so losing his prefect badge)Then he let us go, and of course we went through another two rounds of interrogation of prefects before making it through.

All the time when we tried to explain, he hushed us and talked about "Don't interrupt when I'm speaking". Well that's so much of hypocrite, cutting us off at a very start. The good thing for me and for him, is that I don't know his name, so I can't put a name here and risk getting daggers thrown here. And for him, he was just so way over the top, and he would not have gotten away scot-free.

To the prefect, I bet you didn't say all the crap you're saying when you're campaigning in your prefect election. Simply so shameless, that I actually went back to this dead blog to write about him. He deserves this induction to this Hall of Shame.

All that being said, what an eventful week! And with Glee starting next week, I would be so ecstatic.

So tired

It is the time of the year, that I will really very tired.
And yes I know how fortunate I was, compared to many people in the world.

And yes I'll look back and say how immature I was.

But right now I am tired, and part of me is asking me to be optimistic. (something that I've been doing all year long, and I think you should give me kudos, considering how bad this year had been to me)

Part of me realizes that it was all my wishful thinking at the start of the year that thought this year is going to start out good, or at least its going to turn good halfway. But it just didn't happen in a huge way. At this time, I just want to sleep, and I want to sleep tonight as in, tomorrow morning I won't have to deal with things I don't want to.

I want to take an MC where the day after I won't get stressed up with double serving of homework. I want no expectations on myself.

Oh this is so dreamy. Just 4 more weeks Im thinking. 4 more weeks and I can be free for one week.

Maybe next year, things will go well. Because I think I've held on to too much hope for this year, and its not working out.

I can listen to my music, watch my big brother and try to get these things done.

Yet YET another hiatus

Oh man, I promised myself I won't let this blog go dead, but it still went dead.

What a weekend. Harry Potter 6 (Read the book? Anyone?) was a rather fantabulous movie for a non-book reader. What with all the book fanatics saying that its going to be unclear for those who didn't read, I felt the storyline was clear-cut. It may not contain all the mythology and deep elements, but I felt its quite good. Reading a book and a film are like, two different things lor. The movie is all about attraction, human emotion, and cutting scenes just to tell a story from a visual perspective.

It just rocks lar, basically. The ending was beautiful. It was an ending to a nice weekend. This is turning out to be good. I hope it stays the same for the rest of the yr.

We must bring salvation back

It seems like decades since I last posted?
Btw the big news recently: Ya, the death of Michael Jackson, possibly one of the few legends.

Not only did he wrote fantastic songs, who the hell sells 100million copies nowadays.
Now, 5 million copies is an incredible feat for any artist, and will top the year-end chart.

I actually went to watch some of the clips of his memorial.
It was really sad, esp when they sang Heal the World and We are the World.

Anyway, Mariah Carey choked on "I'll be there", well if this was any performance, it will probably be dissed as "Oh she lost her voice" AGAIN. And it really infuriates me when people actually wrote under the video that "Leona Lewis owns Mariah anytime!" Some of these people are just full of crap, like come on she sang and choked cos she's being emotional, and you're putting all your Simon-Cowell-commercial-judging crap and judging her like that.

I mean what is better when the opening lines of the song are "You and I must make a pact. We must bring salvation back. When there is love, I'll be there."
Well Im not a Christian(talking about salvation), but it just seemed very heartfelt.

I'm BACKKKK!

Oh yeah! I'm back!

*cheers*

Oh ya, just a little update from school life again.
Haha, this world is just crazy!
I got 14/30 for CHemistry, despite having a damn gd Chem teacher, and I got 21/30 with a physics teacher. (do I need to name one? The physics department is all screwed up)

Life with the last week of school is all about Gossip and work. You know, gossiping is a fun thing, (Yes I'm a mean person), BUT its just so damn fun to gossip about others and bitch about ppl you don't like.

Take for example, my neighbour/friend/or anything else who I called him newspaper cutting boy. My other friend joked that he would use a fire extinguisher to smack his face to look better.
Oh that's a bit extreme.

Work at Fernleaf is done, I'm kinda glad. The last lesson is sorta memorable, and I even received a small bookmark, Im so happy. (even though I knew its not made by the students themselves)

And did I say I watch Night at the Museum on the last day of school? Its such a great movie. And did I tell you its my first movie of the year. Yeah, no life.

Things are much better now in the holidays. I just feel great. Things are still crappy, but at least its much better now.
