hey all. we've all been starting to get back our ct results in drips and drabs, and we've all had our fair share of surprises, both good and bad. to everyone who's reading this, i hope you read it to the end, especially if you were affected and felt upset in any way about your results. to put it all in perspective, our results only function to help us get promoted. i mean, if we get an S or A, it makes no difference as long as we meet the promotion criteria. that is unless you wanna get on the dean's list, in which case getting an A would be the least of your worries, but instead how high of an A you've gotten. anyway, doing well is of course what we aim for, but if we dont, so what? dont beat yourself up about it cause it's just a letter. if you've done well, good for you, but once again, it's just a letter. there's more to life than studying, but you'd probably be rich if people gave you a dime for every time they've said that to you. and furthermore, if you can be honest with yourself and tell yourself that you haven't done well enough cause you havent worked hard enough or left something to be desired, you have no reason to feel upset cause your mark is probably what you deserve. and lastly, this ct is only 15% ZOMG. i know promos are gonna be infinitely harder but cmon, we'll all be aight cause we all make things out to be bigger or more difficult than they actually are. so pls chill everyone, relak one corner and lepak-lepak pls. there's more to come, so relax while you can. ciao for nao.
I thought I might trip over a stone, or even my own laces,
But I ran into a brick wall, and thankfully so,
Cause now I run no more.
(This is NOT meant to be poetic. Just sums up something I've been through lately. Tata.)

cts are over dammit! suck on it biatches. haha okok, anyway i just don't wanna have to think about it again until we get our results back so DON'T REMIND ME or i'll frickin kill you.
anyway in other MORE IMPORTANT news, it's seriously saddening that michael jackson, the king of pop himself, has passed away. all the negative press he's received in recent years has been pretty unfair. most of the so-called 'victims' of his 'molestation' are money-swindling crooks and most people have duly recognised the fact that he probably hasnt harmed anyone else other than maybe himself. but with all the negativity aside, there has never been a bigger phenomenon than michael jackson. his soulful singing, his insane dance moves, his immeasurable stage presence and his humility above all, captured the attentions, imaginations, hearts and souls of millions worldwide. cmon, which other artiste have you seen that had the power to send young and grown women alike into tears and even fainting spells at the mere sight of him, let alone a handful of grown men. his record sales are unmatched and his signature pieces of clothing such as his hat, silver glove and white socks have become iconic images of the whole sensation of mj magic. as a kid, mj's music was the only music for me. and i used to pretend to dance like him, and what a sight it must have been presumably. we've all tried to do the moonwalk and either ended up looking like idiots or falling flat on our asses. we've all been enthralled by his music videos, which were all like mini-films in and of themselves. think about it, we had stuff like thriller and smooth criminal and remember the time. his movies were great and out of the 3 that he did, i've watched the whole of 'moonwalker' and can only remember some parts of 'ghosts'. there wont be anyone who will even come close to matching him in any way, and he will forever remain, one thing and one thing only - a phenomenon. well, the king of pop as well. RIP Michael Jackson 1958-2009.
on a somewhat related but unimportant note, white people should seriously not attempt to dance. i was watching some of mj's live performances and white people seriously can't move or dance. leave these things to coloured folk, honestly.

SHIT CTS ARE IN 3 DAYS TIME. haha actually nvm la, no biggie. not that i'm gonna ace it or anything, i'm somehow feeling nonchalant about it all. i cant bring myself to study and i need to remedy this bad habit, which has been carried over from last year. i honestly applaud all of you who can study, let alone cover EVERYTHING that's tested. anyway, today i watched transformers. HOLY SHIT IT IS FRICKIN COOL TO THE MAX. all the autobots and decepticons just look much cooler than in the first movie, i dunno how. and the whole thing was action from start to finish. nearer the end it started to get a little disorienting, not in a way where you get nauseous or shit but when you get a little bit confused as to what's actually happening cause there's SO much goin on. but it was awwsum, and might even be worth a second watch.
anyway the story is about optimus prime and a female decepticon falling in love, but torn apart due to their allegiances. the autobots and decepticons fight until they realise love conquers all and then they put aside their differences and join forces, or so the autobots think. megatron then makes use of their newfound trust to his advantage and kills the autobots one by one by waxing off their paint jobs and making them die of prolonged pain. so then the decepticons start celebrating and the female decepticon, seeing her dead optimus, then kills all the decepticons. then she sells all the autobots and decepticons as scrap metal, becomes a millionaire and laughs her way to the bank. END OF STORY SORRY TO SPOIL IT FOR ALL OF YOU WHO HAVENT WATCHED IT.

lloyd banks is frickin awwsum. and so is young buck. and so is tony yayo. and we all know fity. G-UNIT. ok sorry, my recent downloads of gangsta stuff has been mildly putting my brain into overdrive for drugs, sex, money, guns, and well, sex.
class outing on wed nite was not bad. first ever class thing and like 13 people showed up, so not bad for a first attempt. eugene, i'm holding you to your word for when school reopens. anyway, dinner was at marche and karan, liyoung and i managed to get some german beer. konig ludwig weiss beer from the tap. good stuff. and geri also had some, and karan and i were watching her drink in amusement. the meal and the company was good so overall it was a good nite. and then liyoung and sujin went off to watch some horror movie. faizal and i stood our ground. yes we are scared so shoot us. then after a while we all left. took the train back with claire and got home at abt 11pm. dayyym, that's early.
studying in school on thurs failed miserably. sean and i played soccer with some j2s after that. barefooted, on the hot astro. we came out after abt an hour of play with severely blistered feet. we were walking like ducks. but i still managed to put on plasters and play soccer the next day at the east coast cage. took a bus all the way down there just to play. i mean cmon, it was a no-brainer between that and studying at home. then chilled at ryan's place till we finished his altar servers meeting then we all went for dinner at cafe cartel. then godpa sent me home, with the cousins in tow, in his convertible merc. frickin awwsum. then today played soccer in the morn in school with what kristian terms at j6s. 22 yr olds. then we showered, had lunch, and played pool at his house, all the while having a heart-to-heart talk. i'm just glad imma able to help in some way. then just had dinner at grandmother's house and twas frickin awwsum as usual.
AND I NEED TO SLEEP EARLIER. I'M FALLING ASLEEP AT MY BOOKS DURING THE DAY. BADBADBAD. PLS LET THE HOLIDAYS BE EXTENDED.
and i've put up my first note on facebook, and this the 1st-2nd line from a song quiz thing. and not many have been guessed. so either my music tastes are so eclectic that they cant guess or they're so unusual that they've never heard of the stuff. i think it's the former. and i created the how well do you know me quiz thing also. haha retarded sia. everyone got taken by the last question. spastums, in the words of haikal. ok BAIBAI HERE'S TO SLEEPING EARLIER.

dayyyym this blogging thing is hard to keep up. and so it has been for many before me, and those who will continue to do so. ok now what the hell am i saying. this is what the holidays do to ya.
shit, i thought this june hols would be a great break from school. well actually it is, since a break is better than no break at all. but then i realised we hadda lotta stuff to do, fo shizzle ma nizzle. i mean think about it. first there's obviously revision for cts. then throw in all the pw interviews and surveys and stuff. i mean once you add this to all the going out, sleeping and chilling you have to do, i mean the hols are packed man. haha. anyway, just kidding, it ain't as bad as it seems. and somehow, these 4 weeks are passing by slower than any other holiday i can remember. which is awwsum obviously. anyway revision hasn't been going too well. distractions are everywhere, honestly. IT AINT MY FAULT. haha. and pw aint moving either.
and i want to go on this like journey across various malls and take a look at everything that's there, even though i've been to some of them quite a few times. and shop, possibly. well i'd start with what qayyum calls the trinity of malls - tampines one, tampines mall and century square. i've never been there, so shoot me. then i wanna go to peninsula plaza and far east and heeren and other places in town. then onto queensway, cause they actually have some decent stuff there. all in one day. so who's with me? haha seriously if you also wanna go, just holla. anyway, other than that. cyall around. hopefully soon.

recently, i've been bombarding myself with thoughts about who i am as a person and i've been trying to consider things pretty objectively, or at least as best as i could. the first and most obvious thing that i've realised is that i've changed a helluva lot since sec 1. well basically in sec 1, i was this short, dumpy, mugger dude who was way too conscious of the rules and basically did everything he was told by both parents and teachers; almost never submitted work late and tried to do everything right and as best as he could.
now, even tho i ain't particularly tall and all, i have no qualms doing things that ain't right. also i'm in no way any academic superstar. i have no qualms not doing work and submitting shit late. and something that may surprise some of you is that at the start of the year, after orientation and all, i was SERIOUSLY considering going to poly, because i saw no value in the stuff we were doing in school. i saw it as merely trying to achieve a meaningless grade and going after it blindly without really knowing what its purpose was, and is. call me shortsighted or whatever, but i can bet that you would have felt something similar at one point or another. i didn't tell my parents cause i honestly didnt want to know what their reaction would have been to my suggestion of going to poly. so i just stuck it out, hoping that i would find SOME sort of meaning in the process that countless others before me have gone through. at some point this year, a seed of motivation to do well was planted on a monday morning and began to grow promisingly, but has since withered. thoughts of going to poly have resurfaced but i suppose i'll stick it out again.
another change is that the friends i hang out with more often now are different. most of my 4k chihongz have gone to hp and are segregated from the rest of the normal folk and sometimes i wish it were still the old days of the 4kers. anyway, i'm still happy with the people i hang out with cause they're all damn fun people too. but at the end of the day, i still know who my true friends are.
i've also realized that alot of the time, i like to be quiet. sometimes i'm just lazy to talk and just wanna watch the world go by. but when i'm doing something i like, no matter how crazy, i'll be putting everything i've got into it. call it wierd or whatever, but it's just me.
and other than all of that, i've been asking myself about other things, to which i havent yet found an answer or come to a satisfying conclusion.
are the things i'm doing really me?
have i lost touch with some of my friends who used to mean more to me?
what do i really want at this point in time?
what is it that's missing in my life right now?
haha you might think i'm thinking too much. way too much. i think i agree. but as of now, i need to get this sorted, for myself if not for anyone else.
