A Lazy Susan turns one round.

I just had my english exam recently. It was really a dejavu kind of thing. The Composition had that one word thing that i explained in a very chim way. It was on stress and on the spot, i made up a fable. There was once a scientist and a painter. The king of the country asked the scientist to create something for him so the scientist tried everything to make it great but failed misserably and created something he didnt even know what it did. Then there was a painter. He was no one big but one day, he decided to paint something. So he drew the country as an apple in the pupil of the eye. The king saw this and immediately fell in love with the painting. The moral of the story is, sometimes, stress comes because we rue the activity and are pressured to suceed so much that we miss focus on what we are really doing.

Oral exams were a little different. I think i sort of failed for my picture conversation cos it was... well its really stupid. It was a group of people in a HDB carpark staring into blank space, all looking very dazed. And the question was, what do you think they are looking at... I was like.. wtf?? ok i didnt say that but i felt like it.

Before the exam on thurday there was exam mass. Conducting the choir is a real challenge when 2 of them have no confidence in ur conducting and u have guitarists and an organist under your beat... which i still have to work on. It was good fun though. After that, JJ, steven and I were jamming on a guitar and doing all sorts of crap and stuff. For PLTC, Im worried for Nicholas because he's not the strongest drummer and im afraid that he would screw up even though i know i shouldnt. So we are resticted to simple drumming songs to play. So steven suggested that instead of playing all the songs as a band, we can do our own solos. Then Zack had his missconfidence in our leadership qualities but i dont listen to him anymore. I think hes just making excuses to get things done his way so... yea.

Earlier today we had combined cat class. Quite a few people didnt turn up that day including Christopher Tee and others left earlier. John was there though and so was Mitch. What made me have flashbacks was when Kimberly came. Ok i dont like her anymore. She's like 2 yrs history already. Still she looked very good today. I suddenly remembered what it was like to be infatuated and i thought about the days in sec 1 when i was geeky and afraid of girls at that point. Somehow it made me think about the wonders God has done. I mean I ahve changed so much since sec1. So much till some people like Charles cant accept the change. I was sitting with Mitch and Jerome and Yeti. Just like the old times. Now, since so much has changed, I dont think i will ever have that feeling anymore. Maybe i did once earlier this year. Sometime in March but it wasnt the same. Maybe it was better. For now, I plan to lay low for a while. Just see where the Lazy Susan turns to again. And when the chance comes, take my chopsticks and lash out at the food.

How to Stop a Nuclear Leak

This is the 1st post am I correct? so... yea. I just thought a blog will help me keep my mind off things and keep things in check too. Just for fun cos my old blog is alr quite dead and since im sec3, there'll be much more to write abt.

So today is the 25th of september. 2 more days to Exam mass. I have a feeling that some of the choir guys have a grudge against me or something. I know im not the best conductor but im trying right? Well I really think im falling behind in things. Im supposed to be choir master and i havent really gotten things done yet. And i think Mr Ng is blind too. This morning i walked pass him twice and he never acknowledged me. I also think hes pissed at me for not being on task but whatcha want me to do when exams are like 2 weeks away and the teachers dont really give much a care abt revision anyway.

Yea Ms Teo is alr on Binomial even though its not tested, Ms Chen is being... Ms Chen and Mrs Ong is like... well she can be nice sometimes, but usually shes quite anal and irritating. English is this friday and im really... nervous for my oral exam. We havent had english oral in a really long time and i really dont like the idea of having to describe a picture to someone. Feels very unatural. Oh then theres letter writing... Oh damn thats a killer. Imagine if exam papers were like transformers and suddenly jumped up at you as it folded itself into a lean mean killing machine.

Im gonna watch the Bee Movie with Sophie and a few others after exams. And Abel still owes me 100 bucks and a movie ticket in that stupid bet he took abt not getting the PLTC form. Poor abel. He wants to bring me out after exams gold class. well ill let him do what he wants really. =P Lisa's on a plan and John's thinking a lot. Sophie and gang might just be going crazy on exams but hey, So am I.

Lol the nuclear leak gets bigger as megan has been diagnosed with a low white blood cell count. So basically, if u study bio, u should know what WBCs do. Yea my sisters really... sick sort of. I mean she isnt vomiting or anything which is good. Last night I had a really bad gastric. I woke up at lie 130 rubbing my tummy thinking itll go away and half having a dream abt elements like fire and all that. after a while, I got up andgot that rubbing thing. then i took sintacid. And for a while it was fine then i threw up my dinner. It was most probably from that spoilt mooncake mum brought home that night. cept that i didnt know it was spoilt. O well.
So that was MY nuclear leak. So rule 1, dont ever trust mooncakes more than 4 days old. Rule 2, sintacid works. Rule 3, Dont think too much. You might just go crazy over girls or exams and all that. and then eat >4 day old mooncake and get gastric problems.

I wonder how everyone is doing right now. I hope Sophie doesnt go crazy like Jfm did the other day. And I hope john and lisa's plan works, whatever they may be. And I hope i dont get gastric tonight. I actually prayed during reccess over chicken rice that it wont give me gastric problems. Cos it did look pretty oily. Anyway Im working on the next new song, Arrows. My blog sub head is one of the lines. Well some will know who its about really. Well guys, whichever way u wanna stop a nuclear leak, make sure it stops.

~Cheers~
