ahh teachers day celebrations... the educator was hilarious and made up for the rest of the 'concert'

which was utter crap btw... heck at least get a better singer, i meant like, when the small guy sang i thought it was meant to be a joke... like last year's ac superstart guy nathaniel that acted like william hung yeah?

oh well i dont have much to say about today and cant think of anything to write

i cant wait for friday too =)

as teachers day is in one hour's time i shall hurry up and blog because i really should be sleeping.

i think its quite stupid to give presents to the teachers just cause you HAVE TO... sheesh noone made it a requirement?! so dont give if you dont mean it! (except ian of course ^^)

and after reading tim's blog i had a concussion due to immense amounts of suck-upness. but thats no offence if tim's just being who he is and not being a hypocrite, which i believe he isnt, even though certain people got extremely annoyed with his post... the thing is, if the world didnt have pple like tim who actually see the good side of 'bad' people then it'll be IMBA.

sigh chris didnt get head prefect! oh WELL but she's in the central committee and is extremely happy about it so i'm happy for her! anyway she said she didnt really want the head prefect position cause she "doesnt want teachers and all picking on her so much and doesnt think she can be so guai all the time" and no daryl mgs would NOT burn down even if she DID become head prefect.

i think its really stupid that i NEED daryl and ian to actually help me TALK so that people would actually freaking LISTEN, so reputation's everything huh?! how very retardedly shallow.

i could start an entire rant on the stupidity of using reputation to judge someone before you even get to know him but i shant since i have to wake up at 5:30 and i wont be getting my eight hours of sleepy sleep if i stayed up longer

and also cause no one would damn bloody listen.

"but theres already less than eight hours left!"
"ah yes, LOGIC WINS THE DAY!!!"

-chong wee

night all

sigh they just left! but somehow i feel more complete than ever... before they walked out the door we all joined hands and my mum prayed for us... then we hugged! like aww... i even hugged my little sister! =)

then was the really hard part of watching them walk off to take a cab to the airport... ahhh... so emotional right now, feel like crying but i cant help smiling!

God please take care of them

-edit-

we had a nice dinner after all today at cafe cartel, no arguments just plain talking and some laughing as me and my (elder) sis made feeble attempts to educate the rest of my family about russell peters =)

-end edit-

i was quite annoyed at the insensivity of my older sister today, here is my dad trying to plan a nice dinner for the family as a kind of last get together meal before my parents and younger sis go off to manchester tomorrow for a piano competition for a whole week, leaving me and my older sis to fen for ourselves.

and here is my older sis being uncooperative and not wanting to go out cause she wants to study, i think thats very selfish... so in the end we end up buying dinner back from parkway parade and having a regular sunday dinne.. sigh

it may be hypocritical of me to say this but i was quite angry at my older sis being so insensitive and seeing the importance of this dinner that my dad so lovingly wanted with good intentions.

*tears welling up here*

i just wonder, what if an accident have happened on their trip? what if they perished? and the last memory we would ever had was jsut a regular dinner, and the haunt that a precious family bonding time had been thrown away? it hurts me so to see sth like that happen, i think i shall try to be as cooperative as possible to my parents and return their love for me.

i'm really going to miss them over this week

*the first drop falls*

as hysterical screams and yells resounds from upstairs, getting louder and louder, i think the cane was brandished... like an animal

i begin to realise what ian talks about his friction between his family where everyone yells and shouts at each other. oddly enough its my younger sister, the oh so good and naive and most 'loving' towards my parents, that is screaming and shouting and stamping.

meanwhile i sit here stressed out at the looming chinese tuition tmr, the pressure to not let my tuition teacher whom i respect so much down, the pressure to make good use of it and excel in my chinese o-levels.

for what?

sry really busy and worn out, leviticus talk wasnt enlightening, chris why werent you there! :(

i have absolutely no comment about the discussion with a certain PERSON except that its really exasperating and dissing when you try to bring the discussion back on-topic and people shut you up and call you stupid for doing so.

you mean what i'm saying is totally retarded? or you dont realise that we are out of point? or you dont see that we arent solving the main issue at hand? or do you judge me before you even stop to think what i say.

i also think its really stupid how unaware some people are of their own actions, then put up a defensive front when it is suggested that they should 'practice what they preach'. and sorry sean if i've unreasonably accused you, but you should know yourself, whether you want to tell me or not.

and anyway if not so much affected and angry at the fact that she scolded me for no reason but rather at her flawed logic. and watching her bitch about stuff that makes no sense at all is immensely amusing.

=/

procastination of tuition chinese work is bad.

-edit-

ok nvm -.-

-end edit-

hmm here's my timetable for today

woke up at 10:30
played one round of dota where stupid people left so i gave up
played warcraft three night elves campaign

lunch at 1:30

read harry potter till 2
eyes got tired and napped till 6

dinner

continued and finished night elves campaign

well kaijun i know you love HER very much and i applaud you for your tolerance and acceptance. but you must realise that you saying that she 'teaches well' has nothing to do with our claims on her being an intolerable bitch.

you must understand why we hate her and argue on equal grounds.

but nevermind, i shall attempt to aid you in your mission against xsh, even though it might be too late to try getitng a new teacher, it would do her good to at least have feedback on her screwed up teaching methods:

firstly, remember the time when she misinformed us about what to study? that shows vast incompetence. also remember the way she replied justin when he asked her whether the format for the mid year exams was going to be old and new. she replied "what do you think?" an example of how bitchiness affects academic performance, if we had been better informed we would have been able to prepare for the exam better and hopefully not spoil our chance at excelling for once because other teachers would be marking the papers

which brings me to my second point, which is her nonsense way of marking our work and tests. take the most recent test for example, she has prepared answers for the personal response questions; are we to be marked down because our opinions do not match those of hers? of course not, how screwed up. and she also didnt even tell us how we could improve and do betetr in the test. and then there is the issue about our projects, it is obvious that her focus is not on content, but rather on the aesthetic value of the project itself. this is wrong, are we to do like wise and shift our focus to the outward beauty of the project in order to get high marks? she is teaching us wrong values and placement of priorities and this is intolerable.

her screwed up priorities and methods of marking has already affected our chinese grade and thus our overall average, she is hindering our progress not only in this aspect, but also in the sense that she is being counterproductive to the purpose of school itself : education. you realise that because of the stupid way she is teaching us, we have learnt basically nothing except that in order to please her we must do well in assignments and test and in short, give her what she wants. teachers are not meant to hinder us, but are supposed to help us grow in knowledge.

there are other aspects about her that are not to be condoned, like her personality and her shallowness and biasedness, but those are not important, we may hate a teacher for his/her personality but if him/her can teach then thats already fulfilling his/her purpose and doing his/her job.

even though i may have a personal dislike for her and that teachers should not affect our interest in the subject and that we should do well in the subject regardless of the teacher; the fact remains that her stupid values and wrong focus render it impossible for us to actually do well unless we succumb to her demands and lose focus of the subject of chinese itself, and that our grades have been affected as a result.

this post is meant to help you kaijun,and also to try to let people know the enormity of having her as our teacher. i have tried to keep this post as impartial as possible. however you want to go about trying to make a difference about xsh, as long as its for the better you have my full support...

oh well

it seems that school days are starting to become more and more slack... take today for an example, we had absolutely no proper lessons except maybe chem which i am proud to say i didnt fall asleep in for the first time (:

hmm i really have to think of more interesting things to say other than merely reliving the events of today... ermerm *ponders*

darly wants me to rant about t3h fu4N about her unneccessary and uncalled for bitchiness that was displayed today morning... for those of you that were unfortunate enough to be present, you should realise that she had NO BUSINESS to be in the class and that she didnt do anything except turn off the lights and yell at us

"sir you should have just told her to piss off since it was your class" - tien

i couldnt agree more. oh well maybe she was miffed at daryl's sarcasm during assembly, or maybe it was jsut cause she didnt like me and picked on me during assembly for no good reason (yes i really wsnt talking -.-)... in the meantime i shall attempt to fathom the RATIONALE behind her freaking "turn off the lights" action

is she trying to make us shaddap and look towards the light switch and see her deformed face? what a despicable exploitation of human nature... and it doesnt work since after a while people will realise that she's the ONLY person that actually DOES something so unspeakably retarded and hence we learn NOT to look at the light switch... so her stupid method has FAILED

HAH... and i would have thought after eleven(?) years of plauguing this school she would have actually learnt SOMETHING. oh well the whatever theory me and daryl have conceived clearly states that:

-we are unable to understand her
-not because she is too superior
-but because she has sunk to such an unfathomable area
-such that we are unable to bring ourselves down to even THINK of trying to fathom the true extent of her degeneration

thus, words like retarded, stupid and dumb are simply our humanly ways of trying to describe her aptly... when in actual fact the closest we can call her is simply FUAN

but oh well i havent actually got to know her so i cant really judge how smart or how dumb she is... actions and words alone do not determine one's intellectual capability. hmm but that is not why i hate her

i hate her cause simply put, she is a CITAG, unreasonably and unneccesary, rather like a certain teacher from 3.8 who is the epitome of a woman who has never smiled.

biased teachers should all go and die

oh well so THE POINT IS that i hate her because she is biased and bitchy, not because i think she's stupid so dont go around calling me a hypocrite

hmm okay after today's worship and band jam i have realised that i am horrigible at plucking and right hand muting... okay i shall try to improve and brush up on my n00bish skillzz :(

today's sermon was rather enlightening to me, rev kenneth huang touched once again on the topic of "many parts one body, many hearts one church"... he talked about how all of us should be equal and respect each other, and not be proud and consider others below us.

basically : dont be egotistical and have a superiority complex, if not we wont be able to function together properly as one church

haha after saying that the song "one voice" came to mind, i loved it so much during youth camp... so meaningful

"let us be one voice that glorifies your name, let us be one voice declaring that you reign, let us be one voice in love and harmony, and we pray o God, grant us unity"

*chills* oh well i shall attempt to talk about egotistical people without sounding ranty... quite impossible but please pardon :S

well its one thing to know your strengths and be proud of them, but its entirely different to know them and boast and brag about them... and put other people down. (disclaimer for kenny: if you think i'm guilty of the whole guitar ego please refer to the first sentence thanks) ego is defined as having an exxagerated sense of self importance, and with that comes looking down on other people as a free gift (or curse, however you want to put it)

i have been the victim of the ego of many people, so i of all people should know how hurting it is to be put down. on another hand its good cause my self esteem is destroyed so theres no way i can become egotistical

thanks (?!?!?)

oh well i shant rant but i think certain people should actually be aware that they are treating other people (no not just me) like dirt, both in terms of intellect and usefulness

i'm a lot smarter than you think i am, and if you laugh or gag or think i am talking rubbish then you can go to hell

hmm now thanks to chris i am suddenly reminded of the life changing play i participated in in sec one... loved it so much and missed it dearly

"cause you are special in every single way,
and i love you just as much no matter what they say.
with every heartbeat every little breath,
i love you so so trust e when i say that, you are special"

"so keep on smiling through these troubled times,
hand in my hand we'll take each day,
theres no one else who can keep us apart,
if you let me into your heart"

gah i cant think of anything to blog about except that like today seemed to whizz past like WHOA...

maybe its casue i woke up at 11:30 but oh WELL

its a weird but comforting feeling when you feel as if you should be doing work but you fid that you dont have any work to do and stone around... but then school has PSYCHOED us into thinking that we should be doing work or worrying about work 24/7 so erm erm...

its WEIRD

oh no playing tmr for church and i cant even play F properly argharghargh

congrats to all the people who got whatever post and whatever position during etmr or whatever blah blah blah

i think the warcraft 3 storyline pwnz all

hmm

im tired of you questioning my intelligence and saying condescending things like:

"thats an INSULT btw"
"do you even know what (whatever word) means?"

im tired of you calling me a retard when i make a mistake due to a misunderstanding or simply cause i didnt hear sth

im tired of you judging people's intelligence (including me) by their actions

im sick of these things you do, but i dont hate you, i hate the things you do

and if you still think i hate you or you dont even know who you are

oh well


out of point:
-leviticus talk was good-

firstly i would like to say that mdm xsh is a retard... she has proper set answers for a freaking opinionated question, i think she was on the verge of writing the set answer on the board and asking us to copy it down was she not?

not to mention that the passage was immensely stereotypical and was already bad enough and didnt need to be marked by a stereotypical teacher

but then again pple just diss me for saying this as pissed-offness for not doing well and yet again nothing i say shall help

it never has

we won rugby! argh i think acs should start losing rugby because i think its stupid that we should go there and waste our time when we dont even freaking want to... and also cause i think its stupid that people are admitted into acs(i) based solely on their performance on the sportsfield... let them go join the darn sports school and not poseurise acs anymore.. okay that was rather stereotypical but oh well

let the prefects go there and blindly follow their duty shall we?

shrug

i was about to say sth else about they way pple perceive intellect after seeing how deluded gen huong was today in calling me a f***tard for not obeying and submitting to the supreme anti intellect of ncc

but i realised that even if i did no one would give a bloody damn and will still think i'm just being stupid and retarded and trying to "justify my supreme retardedness and stupidity"

so i shant say anymore

and dont call me a pissass for not saying anything, not like you would change anything if you read it anyway

so i shant waste my time and energy trying to convince people

on to chinese tuition work

sigh i am quite tired now i just wanna flomp on my bed and sleep

i hate tuesdays... wat exactly is the point of making such a gruelling dragging timetable? are they trying to take hatred emphasis of monday r sth... bah

i think its quite dumb how so many people havent even started on their ihs and they think they can finish it in one day and do it properly...

i used to think like that too but i was proven wrong and fortunately found out in time.

why is it that daryl aways talks about what i want to talk about anyway, me of all people should hate stereotyping but oh well... seems that the world, or sean at least, judges a person's intelligence by his/her behavior.. dumb logic

when will people realise that doing stupid things =/= being stupid?

oh well say what you want i know what i jsut said wont change a thing

-edit-

i got 19/25 for adv math test when i thought that the highest i could get was 13... hope i made it up to you sir

-end edit-

hmm okay today started off by me waking up at 6:15 by my dad's call that ian had arrived so that i could give him a lift to school since h was far too lazy to get to school by himself hmmm...

or it was impossible to get there in half an hour considering that the bus only came at 6:15 ^^

anyways, worship was okay.. once you're actually up there and playing seems that all your nervousness just disappears! oh well after that i had to tolerate a lot of stupid people who complained that the guitar was out of tune blah bloody blah...

not my fault if they want to care so much and focus on the instruments, should go and die.. sorry for blaming you tim (does he read my blog? =/)

somehow, even though i slept at 10:15 last night i still felt sleepy during chem class.. like dope. and we couldnt even sleep during lang arts a cause the whole period was jsut wasted doing that stupid crap writing again blargh.

oh well i have to tweak my ihs nooo there goes my perfect word count...

tonnes of hw to do.

argh

ah i loves one in vison one in christ, brings back many fond memories of last years church camp ^^

yg was veery fun and engaging but did not abandon the spiritual aspect of bs, dean rocks =)

muggin for a math wish us luck for tmr's worship

gonna sleep at 9.30 bye

just got back from a total waste of time

3 hours of sitting in a restaurant waiting for crappy food to arrive

fifteen minutes in between each dish

didnt even eat a freaking proper dinner for all there were

only ate two prawns

didnt even cut the freaking cake or sing the freaking birthday song

happy birthday grandpa and my present is being present for your damn birthday dinner and giving you three hours of my time

harsh as it sounds

unloving as it sounds

i am freaking pissed

so there

ah... i love my chinese tuition even though its only once every two weeks

for an hour and a half

i learn more than a certain incompetent starting-to-be-aware teacher who makes the brilliant observation that we are moving slowly.

i feel confident for my chinese os yay

and my zuo wen's improving even though i still write crap for xsh

oh well i'm running out of things to say i'll blog later

maybe.

i dont know why you bring all of this up again. you once said you were over it. you were once my "friend". we had good times, lots of them. but now you say its all been a fraud.

you cut me real deep

why are you still angry over the band? you once said you were long over it. but then again if you could make me believe that you were truly my friend, how easy would it be to trick me over such a trivial matter?

i'm not here to argue with you, not to insult you, not to blame you, not to say you have no reason to hate me. just here to tell you how feel and maybe soften your suddenly hardened heart.

maybe.

perhaps you blame me over the inactivity of the band? or that you no longer feel like a member of it? or even that as a result of my entry the band has broken apart?

once again i say that i'm not here to rebuke you, but just how proactive have our members been? seems that i'm the only one that actually wants a jamming session. and if you feel that we've left you out of our chapel worship team or any other worship functions then we, or at least i, am sorry. sorry that you think i killed your passion to worship God, sorry that as a result of that you dont want to join us because of my presence.

really.

you were my friend, brother, whatever you want to call it. i poured out my heart to you, and you to me, its just so incredibly hard to believe that all of it was fake.

i know you probably dont care, as you so outrightly proclaim.

but i do.

say what you want, call me a hypocritical christian. but i'll say what i want:

God bless you

hmm after returning from daryl's house i am quite convinced that i should do nothing but slack today

doh cant think of anything to say since i practically said like at least 50% of what was in daryl's blog post and he just wrote them down >.<

i refuse to say anything about fab because theres basically no point trying to talk to him or even say anything to him as most people have found out. even kester couldnt talk to him... let alone the person he hates most and has apparently hated all this while while pretending to be his friend (thats me btw)

):

chinese test tmr and i'm not giving a damn about it... like wth half the class actually wanted to write zuowen?! how incredibly dumb

oh well i shall end this post abrupty right here

bye

upon finishing my lit assignment in one go i have come to understand the joy of work (some of it anyway) aaaah the CONTENTMENT when you hear it printing!

how worthwhile

its really hurting when you discover that someone hasnt really been your friend all this while and then they call you a hypocrite about your own religion

sigh

hmm i think people who whoop and joy over "beating" other people in KoL or any other online game are retarded and shallow and stupid... like crap its not a competition and KoL is an individual game... besides, what is there to gain from "beating" someone other than temporary childish glee?

if someone ever came up to me and gloated i would slap him

i kinda understand how ian feels about the whole world playing the same game as him, cause with the fellow good players also comes the scum... shallow people with nothing better to do than to talk about nothing but it

no seriously

how would you feel if after a greeting with someone the first thing he asks you is "how are you doing in the game?" wouldnt you feel really insulted? as if you have no value to the other person other than to be your playmate

sheesh

oh well i shant go on ranting because i have just finished my ihs with exactly 1500 words including "(1500 words)" and i want to savour the moment and euphoria of finishing a major assignment

while it lasts

Sumitomo was a giant Japanese steelmaker that developed a special super-tough steel pipe. They were sure that it would be snapped up by the Americans.

It was a good product, but there was one problem. Sumitomo had hired a Japanese advertising agency instead of an American one.

The agency named the steel pipe Sumitomo High Toughness, to show up its strength. BUt to make it all easier to remember, the agency decided to emphasise the initials of the Sumitomo High Toughness steel pipe as a sort of shortened brand name. So, in a series of huge two-page ads in major business magazines throughout the United Startes, startled customers saw ads like this:

SHT-from Sumitomo
Now, Sumitomo brings SHT to the United States

At the bottom of the ads, Sumitomo assured customers that their product 'was made to match its name'.


TEEHEE ^^"

jamming was nice

nat day celebrations boring

hmm some people really have to examine why the hell they even go for fop... especially a certain RETARD i know that went twice but obviously not for the right reasons (NO IAN ITS NOT YOU)... i mean, i might be being judgemental, but what should one expect from someone who plays during the sermon and just cant wait for the whole church segment of sunday so that the after-church lan party segment can continue?

and no i'm not being judgemental i actually got to know him (time wasted bloody hell)

i just cant stand people who go for the wrong reasons, its such an insult to the precious few who go there for the PURPOSE it was MEANT TO SERVE... i mean OMG, people that go there because they idolise the bands playing that night, people who go there to use the indoor stadium as a socialising ground.... such an insult to people who go there to praise God, people who bring their non-christian friends along so that they might be converted

well for that moron i talked about just now, i suppose going ONCE is already insulting enough but NOOOO he had to go TWICE. and why? cause my church went on sunday and he didnt want to feel left out.

o.m.g

oh well i cant blame him for being so damn shallow and stupid that e cant even THINK and just merely jumps on the band wagon and thinks that by going for christian activities and going for church means that e is being a good christian

wth?! so what if you go to church and fop and yg and what not?! if you use them for any other reason than to praise God then why the heck do you go in the first place?!

gah useless stupid people... in my opinion only people who actually WANT to praise God and/or wnat to bring people to him should go for fop... why?! cause dammit... thats the WHOLE FREAKING POINT OF IT and its stupid to use it for anything else

oh well i suppose i just wasted my time since everyone will just dismiss this post as usual eric angst and not take me seriously

no one has ever done that anyway

-.-

"True Story. A religion teacher assigned her class an essay on what makes a good Christian. One student wrote about praying nightly, say no to abortion, banning gay marriage, and donating money. The other student wrote about talking to God and allowing people to enjoy their lives, and supporting gay marriage. The day the teacher was to hand the papers back, she called up the second student and told him she would pray for him when he went to hell. The student asked why would he be going to hell, and why he got an F on his paper. The teacher told him that Catholisim is against gay marriage. The student looked at her for a minute, then said aloud, "I'm gay." The teacher kicked him out of class as if he had said fuck or worshipped Satan. A girl in the back of class who had a boyfriend and was obviously straight got up and left too.

If you would leave the classroom, repost this. It doesn't matter if you're straight, bi, or gay. It doesn't matter if you're Catholic or Christian or not. Everyone is a human being and deserves happiness."

i got very angry after i read this, like wth? so we should put our own happiness over God? isnt that just plain selfish? and besides, what the second student said was wrong anyway. even though what he said about talking to God was right, you cant be gay and be a good christian! its like pork murtabak, just impossible...

and besides, the first student's also wrong, praying nightly as though is were a ritual does not make you a good christian anymore than going to church (or yg or going for fop) does. what is the point? praying should be done out of respect to God and because he is our father and we have to thank him daily for what has done in our lives; not as a ritual because you HAVE to... no doubt we have to pray to God everyday but we dont do it for the sake of doing it, just like you dont go to church just because you are forced to or have to... you go to church because you go there to praise and worship God, and thats the same reason we pray

the thing about homosexuality is that theres nothing wrong with it in itself, just dont pursue it unless you can somehow find a way to sure it through counselling and pure determination and through the help of God... its probably very hard for homosexuals but its never too hard to uphold the word of God and do things pleasing to His eye? so the point is that homosexuals should either change their sexual orientation or die single. i know it sounds very harsh but if they do that God will be smiling on them and He would probably make a way for them.

no doubt i would have walked out of the class, not because i support homosexuality, but because i wouldnt be able to stand the wrongness of it all. while it is true that everyone deserves their fair share of happiness, they should only be enjoying it without compromising God.

yeah just my 2 cents... if you want to say anything and have a blog just repost this and give your views..

ciao

views of a fellow christian : http://www.livejournal.com/users/chris_nysb/13621.html

band night was okish if not being horrendously boring until towards the end

pple really shouldnt go for fop if they dont even bloody know why the hell they are there and put "FOP WAS GREAT!!!" on their msn title

what was great anyway? the music? the socialising? hell yeah

but probably not the opportunity to serve God

sigh

How You Life Your Life

You tend to deprive yourself of things you crave, for your own good. You're laid back and chill, but sometimes you care too much about what others think. You tend to have one best friend you hang with, as opposed to many aquaintances. Some of your past dreams have disappointed you, but you don't let it get you down.

How Do You Live Your Life?

lol how true.... except for the first one of course =)

yay early dismissal

stupid stupid math test, such a bloody waste. i mean like, i freaking knew how to do all the damn questions but still.. sigh

plus mr azmi kept talking about peole who didnt do well cause they didnt study and didnt know their stuff... oh the indignance

oh well sorry mr azmi for being a pissass to you and making you lecture the whole class over the misconception that i was complaining that you didnt point out qn 2 as an 'easy' question.

specs fixed.. yay and i found out that my eyesight really isnt THAT bad.. like its 150 in the right eye and 300 in the left haha... oh well considering that i once got my right eye down to zero by the use of some eyedrop thingy..

sigh

angsting is so much more constructive and useful than desparing i realised.

band practice was decent and quite promising... just hope i dont get screw for going for it because of not going for some useless ncc meeting which a certain retard paul cheong called for because he felt that "we were letting ncc die"

damn straight. why not just bloody let it die?

yay got my guit fixed up, pasted sean's "Sold Out For God" sticker on it

hmm i wuold have started yet another angsty rant about intelligence but i realised that since i posted it a long time ago and no one gave a bloody damn or took it seriously i shant bother...

after all... my actions make me retarded right?

fools
