Like...It's Sunday?
 

Don't mind the title, I just don't know what to put for it. Anyway, HI! So, let's get straight to the point, yes?

Okay, so yesterday was Pairama. And "yours truly here" (please don't vomit =P) was the amcee, along with Kathleen. It was rather daunting at first, I wore a cara Melayuthere were like, so many people and the audience were rather "over-enthusiastic" about the whole thing. And to make matters worse, everything was spoilt because of some technical difficulties with the microphone. ARGH!! MEMALUKANLAH =( ! The hall went silent at first, then my ears started to turn sensitive and I can hear whispers. I don't know how, and I don't know why, we somehow managed to continue and I have to shout out loud so that everyone can hear me.

MY GOODNESS! THAT WAS JUST REALLY ^(*&*(_%&&^#$@#

Luckily there were extra mikes around. So Mike gave me one mike ^.^. And Kat and I ditch the "once cool looking" microphone. By the way, Erik said that he thought I was wearing a beard at first =O. After that, everything took off slowly and smoothly. I was like reading the flash cards most of the time, LOL!

Overall everything was okay-okay la, but I especially liked the sketsa. Very funny and cool! I liked Sandra's role, who was playing as a guru disciplin and carrying a rotan! LOL!!! I was like laughing most of the time in stage although I've seen it once during the rehearsal.

Okay, I had enough elaborating what happened yesterday. Today, nothing much happened. Swimming was tiring and rather embarrassing. My backstroke is so sasak. My hands are all wrong! So the coach have to like improve me a bit la. Well, I did la, but still...it's bad =(. Then at the end, we finished off with a cool-down............2x 100m freestyle! What?! You call that a cool down? =O! I can't believe I just swam 100m! I was excused another set because it was getting late already, thank goodness for that! I'm so beat up now, and I want to continue study. But I can't.

Got distracted by TV, and now, I can't even hit the books. I have to search the web for computer quizzes for INFORAMA. Oh joy! And the output is...bad...*choke*

I see you guys later. In the meantime, ta-ta!

Spaghetti
 

Source: here. This is totally hilarious!

A businessman had been having an affair with his secretary. Now, the shoe had dropped: she was pregnant. Not wanting his wife to know, he gave her a sum of money and asked her to go to Italy and have the baby there. "But how will I let you know the baby is born?" she asked. He replied that she should just write spaghetti on a postcard and send it to him: he would take care of all the expenses. What else can she do? She takes the money and goes to Italy.

Six months later, the businessman's wife pulls out of the mail a postcard. Not knowing what to make of it, she calls her husband at the office: "Dear, you received a very strange postcard in the mail today from Europe, and I don't understand what it means."

"Hmm. Can you just tell me what is written on it?"

She tells him. He gasps and falls to the floor. The office staff quickly tell the wife what just happened and rush him to the hospital, where they discover he has just had a heart attack. When the wife gets there, the head medic asks her if she has any idea what trauma had precipitated the cardiac event. She looks puzzled: all she had done was to read him the postcard.

"And what did it say?"

She reads it off the card: "Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti - Two with sausage and meatballs, two without."

...lived happily ever after?
 

A quote from fairy tales? Nah, but I'm so happy today because everything had ended beautifully, much to my surpise! These past few days have been rather hectic for me, and I finally got over with everything!
I'm so so happy! Looking at them striked out makes me feel so good, hahaha! I can believe I had accomplished so much in one week, LOL!

Today was a rather tired, but a very interesting and fun day for me. We started off early in the morning with debate, and the motion was "THBT cloning should be legalised". It was rather fun and exciting, go us! Hahaha...But the proposition made so many points of information la, aiyo, cannot answer them all la =P. Sorry! Well, our team also, but not as much.

Overall, I think the debate was good, except that maybe it's a bit messy as the POIs are quite long, and there were lots of follow-ups as well. It's quite hard to concentrate on the speeches because of that, but somehow, we all managed to. The winner of course definitely goes to the proposition team, consisting of Yong Bo, Nathaniel and Alex. Congratulations!

Good job to Jayne for being making her spontaneous rebuttle speech, and also to Mushroom for the steady POIs. =D. The debate was fun!

Then in the afternoon, I have got Perbahasan Melayu. Oh dear, another debate again! I was already tired by then. We had a short training during the last period, and I missed Maths, LOL. Cikgu Normah helped us to correct some mistakes and we discussed some ideas about what to say for celahan.

Man, the debate was really scary man. Danson is really strong! And they like mencelah until there's no tomorrow (like what Ervy did to me >=P). Surprisingly, all celahan were rejected by everyone, except for me, as I boldly accepted one, from Ervy. My given answer was like so cacat la, I actually breathed a sigh of relief as Mu'awizzah (sp?) celah me, but I rejected =P.

Rahimin was funny man! Especially at the end of his speech he gave a funny poem, and everyone was laughing! Hahaha...he also acted funny in his speech. Well, he did a good job of easing the tension situation. ;)

Well, Danson won, of course! And they certainly deserve it =D (What am I saying? XP) Hahaha...well, being second place doesn't sound so bad la ;).

Bah, I stop here. I'm too tired to go on, my brain isn't functioning well. (You can tell from the way I write, like 没有用心 like that. I see you guys later, tata!

P.S. Keep on tagging people, thank you all so much =D

Another one?
 

Er...was supposed to do my works, but I come to that later. First, read this!


The following short quiz consists of 4 questions and will tell you
whether you are qualified to be a professional. Scroll down for each
answer. The questions are NOT that difficult. But don't scroll down UNTIL you
have answered the question!






1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?





The correct answer is: Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe, and
close the door. This question tests whether you tend to do simple things
in an overly complicated way.



2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?




Did you say, Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant, and close the
refrigerator?

Wrong Answer.

Correct Answer: Open the refrigerator, take out the giraffe, put in the
elephant and close the door. This tests your ability to think through
the repercussions of your previous actions.



3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the animals
attend... except one. Which animal does not attend?






Correct Answer: The Elephant. The elephant is in the refrigerator. You
just put him in there. This tests your memory. Okay, even if you did
not answer the first three questions correctly, you still have one more
chance to show your true abilities.



4. There is a river you must cross but it is used by crocodiles, and
you do not h ave a boat. How do you manage it?






Correct Answer: You jump into the river and swim across. Have you not
been listening? All the crocodiles are attending the Animal Meeting.
This tests whether you learn quickly from your mistakes.

According to Anderson Consulting Worldwide, around 90% of the
professionals they tested got all questions wrong, but many preschoolers got
several correct answers. Anderson Consulting says this conclusively
disproves the theory that most professionals have the brains of a
four-year-old.

Hey!
 

Hey guys, expecially to the taggers, thank you all SO MUCH for coming here and tag. Because of the large amount of tags we receive, I decided to expand the capacity of the tagboard by allowing it to display 20 tags at 1 shot, and of course, disabled the profanity filter (for Alex =P). Hahaha...well, for now, presenting a Fwd: mail I receive from Luisa Jie Jie! Thanks =D! (Took out some unimportant parts though ;) )


The Brick!!! Please read.

THE BRICK


A young and successful executive was traveling down a neighborhood street, going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar. He was watching for kids darting out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something. As his car passed, nochildren appeared. Instead, a brick smashed into the Jag's side door! He slammed on the brakes and backed the Jag back to the spot where the brick had been thrown.


The angry driver then jumped out of the car, grabbed the nearest kid and pushed him up against a parked car shouting, "What was that all about and who are you? Just what
the heck are you doing? That's a new car and that brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money. Why did you do it?"


The young boy was apologetic. "Please, mister...please, I'm sorry but I didn't know what else to do," He pleaded. "I threw the brick because no one else would stop..." With tears dripping down his face and off his chin, the youth pointed to a spot just
around a parked car. "It's my brother, "he said. "He rolled off the curb and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up."


Now sobbing, the boy asked the stunned executive, "Would you please help me
get him back into his wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for me."


Moved beyond words, the driver tried to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat. He hurriedly lifted the handicapped boy back into the wheelchair, then took out a linen handkerchief and dabbed at the fresh scrapes and cuts. A quick look told him everything was going to be okay.


"Thank you and may God bless you," the grateful child told the stranger. Too shook up for words, the man simply watched the boy push his wheelchair-bound brother down the sidewalk toward their home.


It was a long, slow walk back to the Jaguar. The damage was very noticeable, but the driver never bothered to repair the dented side door. He kept the dent there to remind him of this message: "Don't go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention!" God whispers in our souls and speaks to our hearts. Sometimes when we don't have time to listen, He has to throw a brick at us. It's our choice to listen or not.

Argh!
 

Burnout! Fizzle... Oh man, writing a 1,500 essay would be an incredible feat for me......if I can manage to finish it. I have lots of points, but I don't know how to put them in words. No wait, I just don't know how to sort them out in an organised way so to give me an illusion that it IS NOT overwhelming for me. But the prizes are attractive though. Hmm...I ought to think about the money while doing it. If only I get...

1st prize : $700

Whoa! That's a really really big IF! Like it can happen. I can't write well if it has to be handed up on Thursday. I hate rushing my work. (Why oh why do I have to procrastinate so much?) But, hey, 1500 words la! Not easy, LOL! Oh well, might as well just entertain the judges with my boring entry. They will just skim through it and pfffttt! Bye bye!

Sigh~ Perbahasan on Thursday. Tak belum sedia lagi la. Malahan, Danson ialah musuh kita...Matilah! Star player Ervy ada di situ...Boo hoo hoo!! ='(

And I have class debate on Wednesday. On the same day, a few hours after that would be Sajak. Can anyone teach me how to mendeklamasikannya? Please? Desperately!

This is a stupid post -.-"...I should be doing my essay instead of typing this thingy out. Oh well...Back to work...

Bukit *pant* Shah *pant* *pant* bandar
 

Oh man! I'm so tired after that run until I can barely move. Maybe I should stay stuck on this chair and stay "paralysed" for some time until I recover. Yes, until now I haven't recovered! This is bad, I suddenly became unfit =(...

School today was so-so. Sigh, we are going to have a class debate on Wednesday again, something about cloning should be legalised, and Jayne, Mushroom and I are on the opposition team =). With Alex as the rebuttle speaker, no hope lar! Lol...Then later after class, Nathaniel and I went to see Mr. Gray because I wanted to "give him a chance to participate in the inter-house Maths". Bleh! I have no idea how I got in, I simply cannot manipulate numbers in my head!

A couple of hours passed, and I turned up in Bt. Shahbandar. And I thought we start at 2.30 pm >.<. At first, I was kind of enthusiastic about the run, but after when I started running, I regretted turning up! Hahaha...so tired la. Or more like lack of oxygen. I was breathing heavily, you could swear a dog was chasing you! It was that bad. (But at least I overtook some people, like Kim =P) Ever since swimming lessons are cancelled and Taekwando Club sort of becoming "dysfunctional", I barely exercised. I never felt so weak in my life.

The worst thing was the challenging finale, with the hill that was uphill! Whoa, freaky! Okay, it's no surprise to me (I was running since Form 1) but seriously, it was a long and tiring journey. Bleh...I had to sit down and rest for like a couple of times. It was really discouraging. And at that time, I was kind of pening and nearly vomitted the fluids I consumed (none other than water. I drank nearly the whole Tupperware bottle before running!). I was singing with joy nearing the finish line. Gathering all my last energy reserves, I dashed towards the finish line. With pride...with glory...with strength...with power...WITH CONFIDENCE.

WTH!

It was all cut short when my anaerobic muscles DIED! And I just halted like a few metres away from the finish line, looking like a sakai. My body was all shaky already, or you can say it was trembling. So I just jogged to the finish line and grabbed the card.

33

Oh, how I so hate myself! 33! Deprovement! I thought I made it to the Top 20s. Seems like that can and will remain a dream. So I went and sat down, and I can't relax properly. It was so sad, my face was flushing red, my body was all heaty (it was about 39 degrees? LOL!) and the worst thing was, I lacked water la! So I carried my body which was trembling furiously to the Milo truck =D...Along the way, I was a curse. I created havoc. And they have something to do with Milo! >=(
It was so gay. And you know what I said?

"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry!"

Even I admit it was lame, it's like as if that word can undo the whole thing. But I was too tired to think straight; my brain cells were fried! So I just sat down on a bench and found trees and Jun Jie's backpack (carried by Steven) very interesting. I was actually fa dai-ing, I was staring at them and looked like I was a thousand miles away from my body.

I woke up from my comatose state after quite a long time, maybe...15-20 minutes? Then, I just went down the hill to the main entrance into the car. And zoom, I went home.

The most idiotic happened when I was back at home. Mind you, my brain cells were still the fried ones, the new ones "have not come into being yet". So, being very very VERY RANDOM, I threw the Easter egg my brother painted in R.K. class to him. You know what's even sillier?

I thought the egg could bounce off! =O

Apparently, it didn't. I was shocked when I realised I broke his egg! Even shocked when uncooked rice was its isi! I panicked lar, of course! Then as a punishment, I had to get a new egg, throw out its contents and filled inside with rice. I can't believe I did something so stupid even idiots knew egg was fragile. And my brother lectured me. Ho-ho-ho! =(

Here I am, once again...writing out this thing. I see you guys soon, I want to remain stationary and do absolutely...until I recovered and do not pose further "danger".

Surprises
 

I do not know what has gotten into me, but I have to say this......

PHYSICS WAS REALLY FUN!

Seriously! I'm not joking. It is not meant sarcastically either. Oscillation may not be a very interesting experiment, but it was the best Physics practical/lesson I ever had since January 2006! Why?

There were only 8 people who attended the 2nd shift!

So cool man! It was so blissful just now. ^.^ At first, I thought Nelson and I were the only ones (Double wow!), but a few "spoilers" came in later =P. Lol! Just kidding la! But seriously, it was the bomb! I will look forward to the next Physics practical ;).

A few things to note:
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to finish up on my homework.

EEEYARRRGHGHHH!!!
 

WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM KAN? Don't think you have the right to be so fucked off with me just because I DID NOT GIVE YOU MY NEOPETS ACCOUNT! For your freaking information, that's just downright SAD, not to mention RUDE and of course, let's add in that YOUR ARE VERY BO KA SI, get that into your head, you nincompoop! Begging from me is useless. Who you think you are leh, ha? A full-time beggar is it?

Look, these couple of days ain't doing me no good. All those itty bitty annoyances and irritants that I stumble HAS BEEN AND STILL IS BUILDING UP INSIDE OF ME. I don't need any shit from you to spoil my bad day already, THANK YOU SO MUCH! If I say I do not want to give, I MEAN WHAT I SAY! NO QUESTIONS ASKED, OKAY?

And stop adding fucks into your already barbaric language. It's too barbaric, even the meanies RECOIL IN HORROR! Oh my gosh, I'm so scared, a young naive girl gives me the creeps! HA PATOOEEY! You may be someone I know well, and you think you can take advantage of me because I'M SUCH A SWEET GUY? My ass la! I have common sense you know! Just fucking leave me alone, you ninny! I heard that you bully my brother too, and I'm NOT HAPPY WITH THAT in Runescape. How dare you! Leave him alone man, and let him have his own fun! Words just can't describe your spoilt bratty attitude.

And sad to say you're a girl. OH MY GOSH! So unlady-like!

Tomorrow will be a better day for me right? HA, I WISH! With a kind of crammy schedule I already have, when will I find time to breathe and destress myself. Probably by the end of this week, I run amok and go bonkers. WOW! The mental institution will proudly accept me into the MENTAL FAMILY!

So random
 

This is maybe one of the worst Sundays I ever experienced. I don't know why, but it is so BORING! I could have died from exhaustion due to boredom. Not to mean that literally though ;). Might as well channel some of those energies into blogging! Horray!

Okay, let's start with yesterday, since its pretty recent. As you all know, yesterday was April Fool's Day cum Jason Sim's birthday. April Fool's Day was rather dull, some people like Ibrahim played lame tricks on me, and I fell for it! Oh my gosh! Oh well, I am always gullible, April Fool's Day or not. And Jason Sim was looking unusually sad for a birthday boy. I thought it was my imagination, but......I pity him though, wish he could have a better day yesterday =(. I don't know whether he heard my birthday greeting or not, because I said it like twice and it seemed as though my message did not enter his ears o.O.

Okay, so the first two periods were Geography, we learned about volcanoes and stuff. Well, it was pretty alright, just learned a bit more in detail about this ferocious thingy together with some Form 2's work. Then Physics was terrible. We learnt some rules about Newton's Laws 1 to 3, then we did S.A.P. Oh man, I can barely understand the lesson although I tried to pay attention in class. I mean, how do they function and why do they happen and stuff wasn't really properly explained to me, or to the class. Then of all things, we did SAP. Grrr, I'm so hating the book now. It's intended to be a revision book laaa. Okay, no, I just don't freaking understand the bloody thing, and I go ba-ba over the questions, with the very blur look on my face.

So, because of them, and because I was extra bored this morning, I went here and read about the laws. It took me roughly an hour, then baru I understand most of them. My gawd man. Does Physics have to speak Latin and Greek all the time? Its so hard to understand until you meneliti the whole thing then use your wild imagination to picture everything!

Okay, so after Physics was English. Learnt parts of speech again, Lol! Then R.K., then Chemistry, then Maths and finally BM. I think the Malay teacher was angry. The class was making a hell lot of a noise, it turned from a sweet class into a chaotic zoo! In the end, he stormed out of class (at least I think he was, but he informed us about it). You know what? The whole class cheered! Lol!

Today I did nothing much la, just go browsing people's blogs and watch some TV then read Malay book. Swimming classes has been cancelled ever since the epidemic (a.k.a. nasty HFMD), so...I'm really really restless now. I don't know what to do! Help?
