Preoccupied

What's with  afternoon sleep? It's like i can't live without it... well, that only applies if i'm at home in the afternoon. Today i made a decision to sleep earlier in the afternoon and wake up cause usually i'll sleep late, around 4... it's not even late... and wake up at 7!!! That's bad, 3 hours. Can't help it though. That's why i tried my best today... set 2 snooze alarm (wanted to set 3 but i believe i would wake up by the 2nd alarm). Sleep time: 3.50. Target time: 4.50. Backup alarm: 5.30. Well, how do you think it went? The alarm rang at 4.50... i woke up and turned on snooze... that means +9 minutes before it rings again. Went on and rang for about 2 or 3 more times. Looks like my original plan backfired... well, that's why i have a backup plan. Finally, the 5.30 alarm rang and i forced myself to get up though still feeling like sleeping and tired (it's called lethargy). At last i got out of bed and then proceeded to do my Mod. Maths work. Well, it worked but still the feeling of sleeping is very strong... so tempting! It's like i'm drawn to the bed...
So very disorganized... wasting my time going online, facebooking, blogging. Eating and sleeping is another thing but a lot of time is wasted everyday. That's why i don't study! Anywayz, studying is harder than it looks. There are some conditions that are necessary to follow before studying or during studying (well, it's how i see it).
1st: study when you have the mood (no mood, nothing will enter your brain. That means time wasted just stressing your brain on stuff you're gonna forget)
2nd: study systematically (don't just study like some geek reading and reading and reading... you know what i mean. It's very stressful, you know, all those words. Be creative, let your imagination go wild, write notes, have fun (if possible). That's my way of studying though it's gonna take lots of ur time)
So much time wasted... that's also the reason why i delay my work... that's why so much work always pile up. Guess it's actually my fault... Homework, paperwork, tests, meetings, activities... lots of stuff aye, not much time. I've gotta change!!! How to change? Be MAD.... are you MAD? That way, i'll have more time and i'll get to finish stuff and then i'll get to enjoy! Gotta make my priorities right. It's all up to me now...
By the way... MAD stand for 'making a difference' :)

Senamrobik!

It's Saturday today... and it's a school day! Came earlier to school cause lots of people ponteng so my bus fetched less people. First time i reach school early and open the class! Attendance today was like all the other Saturdays before. Dunno why my class got a lot of people. 22 people came today.... more than half the class! Today had senamrobik organized by PPD. Lots of primary school students and our school's uniform groups participated. My primary school didn't come but i saw my primary school's headmistress. Had a fun time doing all those moves. Some groovy, cool, indian influenced, malay influenced moves. Did for i dunno how long but they said they were gonna do it for 1 hour. Really fun. It's fun when you enjoy doing it. So what's all these for again? Not quite sure of the purpose of this activity but it was great and most of all fun!
Right after recess... unexpectedly we all, 4A, 4BR, 4C and some other class had to do diagnostic test for Add. Maths!!! 4 papers in a row for 4 chapters!!! So little time, 25 minutes only, didn't manage to finish the 4th module. Kind of interesting cause i get to test my skills and try to finish it as fast as possible. Why so many papers in a row???
So... great Saturday school day today. Okay... about the plant in my previous blog, it's a balsam plant. I found a red coloured flower balsam plant. The flower of the one i had was pink in colour. I took a pod of the red flower balsam plant though i'm not sure whether it is mature enough. And i also saw another different colour... forgot what colour, whitish pink? light pink? or some other colour? Forgot. Now, i will have two colours!!!

To mamak... with jokes!!!

What is the LARGEST moth???


MaaaaaaMOTH!!! Mammoth! Got it? (laugh)

Feelings spoken aloud

You could say, you could feel somebody's feeling. The chilling atmosphere, a bittersweet aurora. As one feels really down, others go the same. Dark cloud overhead... stressed, worried, depressed. How are you? It's like all the world's burden is on you. Such cold, lonely feeling. People come and go... to shut yourself, you feel best to be done. It takes time. Healing occurs in miraculous ways... faith is important. You know it, the whole world worries... yet... you know, we know. For you, o sorrowful spirit... seek the light in the midst of darkness. A helping hand will come to you... are you willing to accept help? You're enclosed in your own realm... time flies... life goes on. Break free... help yourself... as others are willing to help you. You make your choice. Stand firm and hold your grounds. Trust, it's all you need. Have faith, what may not seem may come to be. Seek and you will find... you'll be fine... rest assured there's someone up there watching over you.

Joke #8

This is a joke my tuition teacher told me...
Why is the butter so poor?


Because................. it is not.............KAYA!!! Got it?

A long day

Well, quite a long day at school today. First 2 periods teacher didn't come to class so free periods! Got to finish my homework. BM after History... did some silly essay. Got 11 phrases from some other essay and did my own essay. Khai Sern suggested a love story. He said it'll be funny. Fine, love story it is. It ended up becoming more like a love letter instead. Physics test after recess. Okay lah overall... so far not sure of 3 questions. Thought i was doomed but it turned out okay. No English so another free period. Quite a lot of free periods these few days. Oh yeah, so many people absent and away in class today. So hard to get attendance.
Stayed back today for meeting. Got to use the air-conditioned class room. Meeting quite long also. Discussed about lots of stuff. I can see that i have a very busy future ahead of me. Just hopefully i can cope with it just like i've been coping with it this year. At least i got to finish my homework today... lighten my burden. Gotta do better. Be like me last time. And i still have to cope with my studies at the same time. So far so good but anything could happen. I don't study, just listen in class and do homework. Only go for 2 tuition classes for 3 subjects. Somehow i still cope with my subjects.
All the sports events happening. No rugby yesterday. It seems that my purple house is loosing terribly in volleyball but is trashing the others in netball. All the best to purple house!
Ahh... Saturday school! Though it may be quite interesting and nice to have school on Saturdays (in my opinion)... still... you know... so many people ponteng... teacher asking where is everyone... so hard to get attendance. And the replacement classes are this month, next month and the month after next.
Took a looooong walk back after all the meeting and stuff. Went for rojak lunch at the cendol stall. Today i walked all the way back. Somehow walking all the way back seems better than using the LRT... no idea why though it's more tiring. Stopped at 7 Eleven. Not sure what drink to get. The Coolest Drink on Earth? I'm still collecting chops for a free 12oz. slurpy! Took the 'inner route'. Enjoyed the scenery. Nice surrounding in the neighborhood at Taman Megah.  I decided to enjoy the scenery and look at the plants around. Bougainvillea, hibiscus, lots of peacock trees, bauhenia, something looked like the flame-of-the-forest tree but after checking it, it's not. Really took my time walking back. In my neighborhood i found another type of... oh darn... can't think properly. No wonder, it's late. I'm can loose my mind when i'm sleepy... can't think properly. Forgot the type of plant!!! Maybe i'll mention it in another blog.
Okay, getting late now. So actually what happened 'today' was actually 'yesterday' once i publish this blog. Past midnight now. That's all for now. Wait... i've a joke... please proceed to the next blog entry...

Leisure all day long

Yesterday was great. Not much studies. 1 English period only. Very relax... except for the first part of school. Prefects Installation was boring. That police officer gave more like a lecture than a speech.  Talking about some ponteng stuff, buli and some other gejala sosial. Worst yet, the hall's PA system is terrible, TERRIBLE!!! Couldn't hear a thing! Most people were sleeping during that long lecture, i tried to stay awake. How lucky for the one's who get to skip it.
After that it was back to class where we all got a short rest and before recess. After recess... leisure time! During Civics we got to go out and check out the SPBT garden. Gonna do our Civics project. Discussed on what to do, plants, flowers, fishes, what to put there. Oh yeah, caught a spider in class before recess... don't know what species though. Named it Darren... actually it was Joseph's idea. Wanted to rear it as class pet. In the end my friend let it go at the tree stump near the back gate. There goes, i feel that it like my pencil sharpener box. It didn't want to leave it at first. Okay... back to the garden. Found another spider! A green one. But Ming Soon say not green enough to be an object of doom... cool though. Quite interested in the garden, fishes, it'll be great if we get to take care of it. Just hopefully it doesn't die on our watch. Then it rained. Rained these few days... or maybe drizzled. Talked so much this day... talked about lots of stuff. Interesting stuff... Went back to class, teacher not here so another free period!!! Talked some more, talk lots more! So much time spent talking... couldn't concentrate on my BM tuition work. So decided not to do it. After lots and lots of talking, suddenly we have to leave the class cause another class is using our class. We went to APD room for English. That's all for school today during class periods.
After school.... gotta stay back for meeting. Met with the Form 1's and Form 2's. Elected assistants. That's about it for the meeting. Next meeting on Thursday... which is tomorrow. AJK's only. Stayed back until quite late. After the meeting, went for lunch in the canteen then went back home. Quite late already, reached home 2.45p.m. Changed and immediately went for tuition. I was so sleepy in tuition. After tuition i came back home and went to bed. I only bathed after dinner so it's quite or very late. Such a long day. By the way, my computer has some virus. Infected by my sister's pen drive, infected my pen drive. At least that virus doesn't seem that dangerous.
So much stuff troubling me today. I really should consider my decisions. To take all those so important posts or to reject the posts. (sigh) Missed my bus back home today... the bus was already leaving when i exited the back gate. To chase the bus or not? Decided not to. Stayed back then it rained. Did my homework in the canteen while waiting for the rain to stop and my other friends. It eventually stopped and i went home. At least i managed to finish todays homework.

A rare occasion

Hmm... this is one of the most rarest day. Don't have this often. A free Saturday morning, very rare for me. What can i do? Am i making myself busy? Is that why i rarely have free Saturdays? Actually it's good to keep myself occupied. If not i'll just sit around and rot. When i feel like doing something like my homework, i'll do it. When i start doing it, i'll keep on doing it, keeping the pace and eventually finish quite a lot of my work to my amazement. But most of the time i'm just plain lazy. That's bad. Holidayz.. here i go on debating about free time. I love holidays. At the same time i hate holidays... well used to. I don't usually go out with friends last time so i'm always stranded at home. That was last time. Now, i can go out and enjoy time with my friends. That would take away some boredom. Ah, Christmas is coming again. My favourite time of the year.

Test, test, test?

Test today!!! Bio 'test'!!! Yeah, there 'is' Bio test today... FOOD TEST!!! Lol. Looks like i was mistaken. Was i? I thought teacher said test is today. Anywayz, good thing right? I got you all to study. Then later you don't need to study lor. Lol. People going crazy mixing all the stuff and heating it... okay, that's all for now.

Photos all the way

Itz the 17th today, photography session! The whole class was out of class most of the time. So... no studies! Only first 2 periods... interrupted by spot check! No BM today... 10th period still on... but i'm not in. So, practically that means no study the whole day!
Took 4 photos today. 1 for scouts, 1 for class, 1 for CF, one for PMR top scorers. Such a hassle, gotta change into scout uniform then back into school uniform. Rushed all the way, had to run to class to get my shoes. Lots of photos today... that means lots of poses today. So happen i got to sit in every photo! Cool!
Another meeting if KT's. Name of group still unknown. Today was AGM. Elected the BODs. President, Vice President, Secretary 1 and 2, Treasurer 1 and 2, Head of Section: Furniture, Cleanliness, Buildings, Discipline, Special Tasks. Too bad though, upper 6's and form 5's cannot be elected. Mostly the post held by form 4's and lower 6's. To my amazement i got the Secretary 1 post. Secretary... secretary... always the secretary. Even in CF and scouts there's a big chance... fat chance, i would get the secretary post. So what? Am i a workaholic? I guess it's just me, is it? Wait... should this still be a secret?
After school i was so called 'stranded'. Am i? Later went home, got cendol and slurpy on the way. Got my second chop on my slurpy card! If i get to collect 6 chops, i'll get a free 12oz. slurpy! Sluuurpeee!!!

Late today!

Nothing much interesting today... just that i came late today. Arrived at school today late though at first i didn't know that the bell rang already. My bus broke down. Luckily somewhere near my place. Got a ride from my friend. Got to school late, lost RM1 cause i didn't collect the buku ponteng in time :p

A different point of view

... this past two days of school wasn't that great. No, it's not the homework. Something else that i shouldn't speak of cause... you know lah. So demoralizing seeing that so much have changed. All so different, even myself... really, it's very annoying. Maybe i shouldn't be that good, it seems that everything has gone out of control. It's just too much. Too much. I feel like i want to change back to my old self but... not that good really. After all these years i have changed so much, don't know for good or for worse... still some of my old attributes might be useful now. Should i go on about myself? Maybe not... personal stuff. Don't feel like becoming strict... though it is very useful... there are consequences. Anywayz, it's hard to change though i think of it. Sigh...

Bon Odori '08

Kind of late to wright this, don't you think? Anywayz, last Saturday, i went to Shah Alam for Bon Odori '08. Khai Sern invited me to go. Not quite sure what it was in the first place... but in the end i thought it would be interesting to go check it out. Everything was kind of last minute. Didn't have any transport. Had to tumpang somebody in the end... not quite a great experience cause i don't know them very well. Anywayz, i got a ride there... and also a ride back. Going there, reaching there, the road all seems so familiar. No wonder, i've been on that highway before, follow teacher for SPBT stuff, maths quiz, been to Matsushita before for some sports carnival. When i reached there.. whoa... so many people... i feel awkward... so different. Went in, walked around the track, to the other side where all the food stalls were. Khai Sern still haven't reached yet. Then waited for him... so hard to find people, lots of people. Then met up with Khai Sern under a Carlsberg umbrella...
Seems that i only knew him. Alan in the end didn't come. What to do? Followed Khai Sern do his stuff. Gathering info for... MPS? Took pictures, scout the area... wanted to buy souvenirs but all the stalls were food stalls. At least we got a fan as a souvenir when we came in. Haven't ate dinner yet. Had to eat there... the lines were so long... well, at least for the Japanese food stalls. In the end i got a burger, a few pieces of chicken, a jalapeno sausage, and a drink. Costs RM12 altogether. Then we parted as Khai Sern left to meet his family... all alone now... eating dinner... wasn't planning to find the other group... plan to go solo.
Took lots of pictures. 72 in total... or 71. Walked a lot, stand a lot, sat for a short while... so that means i've been standing and walking for a bout 4 hours or so... still, it's fun. Really, everything is new to me... came here... don't know what it was... now knowing what it was... kind of fun. Lots of dances though i think it's all repeating itself. Three sessions of dances. Everybody joined in to dance... for me... well, i was helping Khai Sern to take photos for the first 2 sessions with my 3.2 mega pixel camera phone.. not as good as a actual camera but it was still after all pictures. About 7 or 8, Khai Sern went home... so early... but still i continued exploring and taking pictures and enjoying myself.
Was taking pictures in the 3rd session... then i wanted to go get a drink... but... i was in the middle of the crowd... well quite close to the stage. There was a circle behind me... people dancing. Tried to make my way through but in the end i was stuck in the middle and everybody else were dancing... so... you should know what happened next. I joined in the dancing and had fun doing so. Got to learn their dances though i may not know what are the names of the dances. Really had a good time dancing.
Ahh... what a great day so far. The 3rd session is gonna start. I decided to join in the fun for it will be the last time to this year. The event is about to end. Joined in the circle and started dancing, following the moves of the people on the stage... following the crowd... alone. Had a great time dancing... really, really great. Then it was all over. The end has come... those people n stage were waving goodbye... the tune Auld Lang Syne playing from the stadiums speakers. Sad that it all had to end. But still, had an extraordinarily great time there. Didn't want to leave yet but... you know...
Okay, in the end, everything was great, had a great time, feel very awkward not knowing anybody, cool dances, great day, lots of pictures (though not that good in quality), kind of stuffed with food, got at least one souvenir (the fan), an unexpected experience. Love it. Looking forward to coming next year. Hopefully i can. Gonna enjoy myself next year too. Feelings that are too profound that even i cannot comprehend.... hahaha... Lol. That's all for now... well at least that's all i can remember. So long and farewell for now!

For the 16th time...

Not bad, all these yearz, now i'll be 16. My 16th birthday is here! That means that i had 15 previous birthdays, lived 16 years, 5,843 days, 140,232 hours, 8,413,920 minutes, and 504,835,200 seconds, that's just approximately if i'm correct. And so happen that... actually i was waiting for today to type this blog entry... it's the 100th blog entry!!! Taken into account the time i'm not 16 yet cause i was born quite late at night.
Spent the first 6 hours of my birthday sleeping... then gotta go to school. My bus didn't come. No idea why. Didn't come yesterday after school too! Walked back, no choice. So, i had to walk to school in the morning today... but... somebody i know so happened to pass me and my brother when we were walking to the LRT station. So, got a lift to school! At school today, there was Chemistry test! Didn't study actually. Used what knowledge i know and have to answer. Soon enough i got the rhythm and then it was quite smooth sailing. A miracle without studying. Then played rugby for PJK. Rugby is kind of fun... for now. Later when tackles are permitted... it's gonna be ugly! Too bad for the one having the ball. Anywayz, rugby really need a lot of teamwork and stamina. Lost all my stamina already... ever since i stopped taekwondo training in Form 3. Overall, i still had quite a fun time. Moral, like teacher for all the knowledge she has. She really knows a lot and makes the lesson quite interesting. Maths... everybody was so noisy today... just because teacher gave us so much free time. Such a short lesson. EST... nothing new... asked teacher something that was bothering me.
Alright, now about some topics i was wondering about in school. Firstly, ever since my balsam plant was attacked by caterpillar, and after i heard that caterpillars become either butterflies or moths, i've been wondering, are they the same? Then i asked teacher about it. She says that a butterfly that lays eggs, the eggs will hatch into a caterpillar and eventually turn into a butterfly. Same goes to the moth. But, 'butterfly' caterpillar and 'moth' caterpillar are almost the same. They are still caterpillars. So, it's hard to tell whether a caterpillar will turn into a butterfly or a moth, except if you're an entomologist. Another question was how did the sea get its saltiness? No idea. Didn't ask teacher. Maybe i'll google it sometime... but the internet is not always reliable. By the way, did you know that the ice at the north and south poles are made up of fresh water? Bla, bla, bla, talked a lot of facts today. Then did you know that birds can see UV rays? Wonder what they are seeing.
After school, walked back, treated myself to slurpy. Reached home, watched DVD. Now gotta sleep or i'll be sleepy in tuition. If i sleep now that means i wasted about 7 hours of my birthday sleeping! Celebrating my birthday in school is not bad. Alas, for my birthday is soon approaching to an end.

'Poof!'... all the work!!!

.... it was supposed to be a great week... or that was what i hoped for... maybe it'll just get better if i wait...
'Poof!' Let's see, i was suddenly 'crushed' by a huge load this week. Such a burden but i have to gladly accept it. Whatever happens i believe the outcome will be good. Always think positively, remember that, be optimistic, those are the words that i use to encourage myself. Smile, be happy, tell some jokes, joke, laugh, that makes me happy. Eat your favorite food, sleep, play, listen to music, that would help me relax. Oh, the work just keep on piling up. Actually it suddenly 'fell' out of nowhere. Let's see... lots of work added to my load in 2 days... or more like just today. Sad. 7 things to do now... still there are 6 tuition works to do that were piling up a long time ago... and my responsibility? Looks like there will be no time to rest and relax for now. Oh yeah... chemistry test tomorrow. Tuition this afternoon. Let's see what work do i have... Eng. Lit. work due 14/7, formal letters for some activity, Mod. Maths work, Add. Maths work, EST work, Civics work, recopy Civics book... FYI i lost my book... all the hard work, copy so nicely and now gone! It'll take quite some time, sooner or later, someway or another, i'll get it done. Hopefully.
Now... gotta be cheerful, let's get
 colourfulz!!! Only new newz de day before today... which was yesterday of course was de new forming of Majlis Ketua-ketua Tingkatan. Specially 4 KT's, only 4 KT's. Heard it b4? If you didn't means you didn't read the Buku Peraturan Sekolah. It was mentioned in there. Nobody bothers anyway... now, there's gonna be a meeting this Thurs in de library. Wait... is tis' info classified? Top Secret? Eyes only? Anywayz, it seems dat they want 2 'upgrade' us. Rather not let you in on the details. Wait and see, time will tell! LOL!

Caterpillar attack!

Ah, what a great day today. Kind of relaxing. I think i really rarely get free Saturdays nowadays. Watching TV on a Saturday, going online... and as i was looking outside my house, i saw some long, black, thick, bold lines on my balsam plant and thought, 'What is that?' Then i went out to see what it was. Looking closer i realized that it was not one, not two but three caterpillars!!! Where did it come from, and why the balsam plant! Anywayz, watched it some time, came back later, watched it and watched it. Slowly it was eating the leaves and stem. My plant was being eaten ALIVE!!! Then in the afternoon i went to throw the caterpillars away, one squirted something brown out, dunno what was that. Then i threw it into the drain. When i went outside again later, i saw that th caterpillar was out of the drain! Now what? Attack the mango tree? Didn't want to kill it cause i pity them. Maybe they could turn into butterflies. Or moths? Not sure. It seems you can never tell. Gotta check up on caterpillars. Well, the rest of the day was fine. Nothing much. Went to 1u at night. Met an old ex-schoolmate. Bought something after comparing and thinking hardly. Went browsing around. That about it. Didn't go to librarian installation, though some people asked me to go.Smile

Riddlez #2

Okay, no time now, desperate for sleep or i'll go high or worse.
What is greater than God, eviler than the devil, the rich needs it, the poor have it, and when you eat it, you will DIE!!!
(hint: it's a word not a thing)
For those who know, you know lah, so don't need to bother.

Nothing is greater than God, nothing is eviler than the devil, the rich needs nothing, the poor have nothing (literally), and if you eat nothing, you will DIE!!!

Love Fridays after reccess Part 2

Ah, very tired today, sleepy, stayed back in school whole day. Okay, let's continue. So,... the acid was a little yellowish and greenish. Okay, time to test it, blue litmus paper... (nervous, raised heart beat)... slowly... slowly... entering... entering............... well, just to spice things up.... okay, ignore me, i'm like that when i'm sleepy. Litmus paper entered the solution and... tada... it bleached and became white!!! Cooooool!!! Tested again, white again!!! Soooo cooool!!! Success, success, yes, all was a success except for the oxygen one. Then tried to use the chlorine solution to bleach some cloth. Ouch, ouch.. stinging! Washed hands under running water.... by the way, forgot about one more experiment, to use 0.001M of HCl... blah... anywayz all was successful... smgt... had a lot of fun and i was satisfied at the end. Now i love chemistry experiments. Then the bell rang. helped teacher clean up while mostly everyone else went away. Clean, clean, in the end, clean but not clean enough for me but nevermind... the floor was blue by the way, the copper sulphate. Touched a towel soaked with HCl!!! Felt the stinging sensation again. washed my hands and went off. Got stuff to do. Okay... i've gotta shorten the whole story, very tired and sleepy. Found somebody's manila cardboard outside the lab with Saranya's file, gave Sasvin, kept the cardboard, went to eat, ate too fast, went to settle stuff at CF meeting, attended scouts PLC meeting, went back to CF, settle other stuff, went for reccess cell meeting, ect, ect, went mamak'ing, joke here, joke there, riddle here, riddle there, talk, talk, chit chat, went back home, super tired. Guess those involved in librarian installation tired too. Left school about 4.30p.m., librarians still in the hall doing stuff. Long day ahead tomorrow. (yawn), sleepee. Okay, such a long day. Love this day. TGI Fridays!!! Okay, reminder to all, sleeping is important, your future depends on your dreams so go to sleep!

Love Fridays after recess Part 1

Fridays... always a long day... stay in school all day. Right after recess we leave our class to go to the Bio lab for Bio and Science lab for Chemistry. It always seems that we are balik'ing early. Yay, Bio, quite fun when it comes to experiments. Got to play around with the peanut and cashew nut. Burn, burn, heat, heat, collect, collect.  Burnt so may innocent nuts, all so dirty all over the table,  black burnt carcinogenated nut remains. Collected peanut gas, or cashew nut gas, Nut dioxide! or Nut oxide! Chemistry, it seems that our class is very slow, so, teacher asked us to do three experiments at once. (eyes widening, jaws opening) No matter, very smgt, while teacher was explaining i was already planning to be efficient. Eyes on what we have to take! Then, when teacher asked us to start, haste, haste, i quickly tasked everyone to do something. Quite fun, first did the copper sulphate experiment to get oxygen and copper. Used 8 batteries. Then decided to do the other copper sulphate experiment involving 1 cent coin and 5 cent coin. Gotta sacrifice lor. SMGT all the way. Then teacher said that the batteries might not be that powerful anymore. So, i got an ammeter and some crocodile clips to test the batteries, ended up testing all that was left in the box. Ranked it from powerful, to moderate to... useless.... Then started on our third experiment involving 2M HCl. Corrosive substance. Started electrolysis, collected hydrogen and chlorine gas. Cool, cool, COOL!!! Then it was testing time, the 1 cent coin has changed!!! The 5 cent coin has changed!!! Downgraded!!! So, i lost 4 cents in the process? Then it was the test for hydrogen, very geram with the splinter, don't want to burn!!! Get the Bunsen burner!!! Then... 'pop'... yes, success!!!  Cool!!! Next we tested the oxygen. FYI, it's very hard to collect oxygen. So, anyway, it failed to ignite the glowing wooden splinter. Nooo... it failed!!! Then tested the chlorine gas... ouch, ouch, the acid is burning. Painful especially at the wounds. A stinging sensation. It seems that chlorine gas will dissolve in the acid. So.... okay, fuh, tired, stop for a while, continue in part 2.

Carrier carnival

Carrier carnival today, Form 4's, 5's and 6's get to check out colleges and university's and browse through brochures. See what option to take once you step out of school life entering college life. Quite some many booths, even a booth for the Form 6 council to encourage students to enter form 6 after form 5. They went around saying that form 6 is cheap, don't need to pay whopper fees not like colleges and university's and so on. Quite true though. Not sure whether to go form 6, well it'll be cool if i get to, meet back my old friends for another 2 years, maybe friend from primary school! Ah, the good old days, or not. Anyway, went around looking at the booths. Any booth that has engineering brochures i took. Then my father said it takes quite lot of money to print that. Then i started to regret taking so may. It's still free by the way. Well, i kind of know what i want to take, what course. Engineering will be my first priority, electrical and electronics or mechatronics. I might consider architecture or science. Well, since i kind of know what i want, my mother says i don't need to go form 6. She says those who don't know what course to take should go to form 6. Anyway, let's just wait and see what will happen, time will tell. By the way, isn't it kind of early to worry about the future?
Kind of a great day today. Rumours going around about the fire drill. Ever since i came to secondary school there were no fire drills. Suddenly got. Primary school every year also got. Guess it'll be tomorrow. If it's the first two periods, yesss, skip BM. Gotta remember to give out the photostated stuff.
Walked home, stopped at a bookshop get some stuff. Used the same way i always use to go back, but, there were some repairs going on at the lorong towards my row of houses. Darn, had a feeling when i passed the lorong before that i should take it. So, had to walk to the next lorong, quite far, make a u-turn. Then somebody drove and stopped beside me as i was walking. Asked for directions to the Childrens Welfare Home (something like that) at Taman Megah. Luckily i knew where it was. She had a map but she missed the turning at the first traffic light and ended up at Taman Mayang Jaya. Then she left after saying thank you. Ah, isn't it nice to help people. At first when she stopped i was really hoping that she wasn't gonna speak Chinese cause i don't know Chinese! Thank God she spoke English. Well, it's good to help others, you'll feel very much better. So... help one another!!!

Riddlez #1

When you see it, you won't buy it, when you buy it, you won't use it, when you use it, you won't know it, what is it?


A coffin. You see a coffin, you won't buy it (who would buy a coffin when their still alive?), you buy a coffin, you won't use it (what's the use of a coffin if your not dead yet? somebody else?), you use a coffin, you won't know it (dead already!)

Top ten, mistake at #8

Okaay, so it seems that Sharon got number 8 in class. I knew it was somebody that has a name that starts with the letter 's'. Let's see, another quiet one, don't know her well, no idea what potential she has but she made it in the top ten. Well then, congrats to the top ten, the first three, and whoever who is satisfied with what they got.

RKA Day again

It's RKA day again, still got people ponteng. All the parent come so early, by 9 almost all the students left. A few of us left besides the pengawas. Found out my position in class today, though i heard rumours, i got 6th place. Well, it's okay but could have done better, year by year i'm deteriorating. Let me list out the top ten, 1st-Shi Min (silently smart, beat her in form 1), 2nd-Renesh (new competitor, came last year), 3rd-Sasvin (knew he was smart, his time to shine, always studying, so many tuitions), 4th-Danielle (no idea about her abilities), 5th-Mei Yi (first in her class in form 1, she's smart but she doesn't show it), 6th-me (don't like studying, only study when i want to, when i start working, it's better that i finish what i started, how did i get high marks? I won't know), 7th-Shu Ning (One of the Ning's in my class, also silently smart...), 8th-...Sher Maine? (forgot who's number 8th, another silent one), 9th-Pei Ning (The other Ning, know she's smart, form 2 got 1st, artistic, sits beside the other Ning, Ning+Ning=?), and last but not least, 10th-Saranya? (not sure again, forgot, really have short term memory lost, hidden talent?). Well, there's the top ten. Lots of silent 'killers'. Nobody know what potential they have in them. One of the profound mysteries of life that i cannot comprehend. Speaking about potential, Ming Long has lots of it, he has lots of determination but don't think he's interested in using it for his studies, or... maybe he's saving the best for last!
Okay, RKA was really short. Everybody left, i was the second last one to leave... or last?... before Yi Lin. Went home and realized i forgot to take my file. Went back to school, went back to class, everybody's gone, teacher's not there, went back to the car, left for home. Does that count as being the last aside from the prefects? Well, well RKA day over for me at 11 when i finally reached home. Don't know why i felt sleepy and i fell asleep.
Okay, must remember to bring the photostated BM essays tomorrow or teacher might ask from me again, don't want teacher to wait any longer, the money, later. Tomorrow might have English oral... i'm not prepared. Lastly, University of New South Wales English test, everybody should take it, nothing to loose, only your RM20. Good or bad, no matter, you'll get a cert, a beautiful cert. If it's bad, don't include it in your resume when you are finding a job otherwise, do so. If you take this you'll get to know your standard of English in the world, start boasting about your English if you score high, if not, i advice you not to do so. All objective passage questions. About 80 questions, i think. It gets from easy to hard to harder. The first few should be easy, teacher says, the last few will be like the English diagnostic test we took, the England standard. Tomorrow last day to register. We are lucky teacher gave us one more day to think about it. Come on, sign up. Full name, IC, RM20 by recess tomorrow. It'll be on the 6th of August, Wednesday, 2p.m. All the best for those taking!
