Centrestage last night...I have to say I enjoyed myself tremendously. I think the coolest part for me was the fact that there were people on stage that I've known for 4+ years and I never knew they could act. And so well too!

One of the funniest parts was when Sam had this line that went: "If you want pretty nurse, you have to be patient" Hahaha

Then there were the inside jokes...some of which were privy only to the people in 5.15 econs class like the play chinese chess joke :)

Oh yeah and NAT and CHRIS were awesome! They were so on form last night! I've never seen them dance so well on stage before...so glad Nat passed me his video camera so I could tape it! Good job guys!

And to the cast and crew of MRT, if you're reading this: I think you guys were really great last night. MRT was like one of those small, budget Indie films which are so often under appreciated. Don't lose heart guys!

My imagination is running away with my sanity. I can visualize both of them, hand in hand, sprinting off into the sunset even before the end credits start to roll.

These past few days have been a bit of a mess. I've come to realise many things and not understand a single one. I've nearly lost the drive to do any of my homework. The only thing which provides me with an escape is, believe it or not, CAS. I really enjoy doing project work and having fun. I'm really looking forward to the upcoming WOW trip. I really don't know what to do anymore



I don't think I'll be updating this blog regularly anymore...things are really heating up and I can barely find the time to do the things I have to do, much less blog about it.

All 3 of them got into the Student Council! I'm so happy for them :D
The printer screwing up, the mad rush to print the posters, the toilet incident (haha), the time spent thinking up lame slogans....

IT WAS ALL WORTH IT!

Congratulations Girls! I do believe celebrations are in order....

Lunch with the "Girls" yesterday...went to Marina Square. I have to say that Marina Sq is awfully quiet for a Saturday Afternoon. Fame at night...haha the expected people won; Felisa (NYGH) was the champion, and Daryl [ACS(I)] was the 1st runner-up...so no surprises there.

Oh, and I found a photo of Nat playing (what else?) Guitar Hero! Hahaha here it is:

Photobucket

Happy Easter Everybody!

I'm so lazy, this post is a Haiku (and a very bad one, at that :)

"Exactly 1 month.
I need to start tomorrow,
Or I'll never end."

Cool eh? Hurrah for Ambiguity.


20.3.08

I was so stoned today, was barely paying attention in any of my classes. Stoned through English, Bio and Econs. Argh...I better start mugging econs!

I guess the highlight of the day was the council elections. Its supposed to be a secret vote so I shan't discuss it here haha. Oh yes and 5.17 is going to Chiangmai! YAY! Its going to be amazing fun there. Plus we're going with 5.16! I can't wait :)

On another note, I think we should probably start thinking of ideas to raise money...reaching a $1100 is not going to be easy.

And I think I should start staying in the SAC during recess...heh. Bridge is getting kinda boring anyway.

MAJOR EDIT: Its not $1100, its $2500! ARGH!

I have got to kick my bad habit of editing my previous posts one day after I post them.

Moving along...
Sat through the last day of REW. I think the speaker made some serious errors in his talk, especially in his final slide when he posed the question "Is Jesus the only way to Heaven?". I was quite shocked at his answer (which was No), I think the verse he quoted, Romans 2:10 (someone correct me if I'm wrong), was out of context. To those of you who were listening today, do give me your thoughts on this matter...I would like to hear from both Christians and Non-Christians about their opinion over this matter.

Anyway, today was pretty cool. The SRC brought in 3 super cool cars for the students to ogle at. It was in conjunction with the F1 Sepang trip they were organising. Anyway the cars were soooo COOL! The lime-green (I love the colour) Lamborghini was Awesome! The cars make me wanna work hard just so I can become a lawyer or something and be rich enough to own one!

Haha when I get the photos from Sam I'll post them here and you can see the 3 amazing, fabulous, stupendous cars for yourself...then you'll understand why I'm gushing over a hunk of metal that depreciates in value and costs a Million dollars. Not to mention road tax, COE, Insurance,ERP etc etc. Ah, the economics of Automobiles!

And to any 5.17 people reading this: I really need to collect the $33 by tomorrow! If you haven't paid me yet please remember to bring the money.

Today was quite drama...

Someone's phone got confiscated, then I ended up going back home to rush out the posters (got to skip chinese) When I was printing the final poster the printer jammed...I think my printer's pretty much screwed now, and it was new, which means I'm pretty much screwed now. Thank god for warranties.

In the end, the phone was returned and we managed to put up the posters in the most unusual places, I think the guys won't be able to not notice them (Sam and Max's doing).

Econs period was spent playing connect 5 with Basil, who owned me 6 games in a row before I finally beat him. Stupid GEP! Haha just kidding :)

And Lastly:

Happy 17th Birthday Max!


17.3.08

I'm not going talk about the first day of the council campaign; since I have nothing constructive to say I shan't say anything. Plus I'm trying to keep this blog as happy and un-emo as possible :)

As first days of the term usually go, it was pretty slack. I was kinda expecting a reformed ex-con or ex-gangster to come and tell us his life story for REW, which is usually very interesting and touching; but no matter, it was a pretty good talk anyways.

Rest of the day was pretty slack...chinese, PE, then I had a free period for Math SL, spent talking to Amos and Nicole in the back row and lending Bingei my camera, who then proceeded to take pictures of everything...haha

Math SL totally rocks, I think we're going to learn how to do completing the square this week.

Oh yeah, and remember to vote for ACT!

Note: The contents of the post above differ from yesterday's original. Its interesting how blogging about things makes you more aware of the contradictions in your own thoughts and actions.

School starts tomorrow.

I wish...I had more time.

To do the things I want to do
To do the things I need to do
To do the things I have to do

I can't wait.

Ad vitam paramus

Today was pretty uneventful, save for the fact that I got a haircut.
No comments on Monday, please.

So I'll blog about a recent phenomenon that has come to my attention. A malady that plagues all who hold a guitar shaped controller.

"Guitar Hero face"

An expression, usually of great concentration, formed on an individual's face while playing the popular game Guitar Hero.
Below are some examples taken during the party held for the 2nd-intakers:

Photobucket

Sam (aka The Nerd) - The Look of Absolute concentration

Photobucket
Vishnu - I totally owned this guy

Photobucket
Abhishek and Mulloth

Photobucket
The focus of this photo is the guy with the guitar, Amil. He came in, and even though he's never played the game before, set it to "Hard" and owned everyone.

Guitar Hero really is awesome!

And would someone recommend me a good photo uploading site? Photobucket's upload speeds are super slow.


14.3.08

TGIF!

Yeah,right.

Now they're effectively 2 days left before school reopens. Still, even though this 1 week may have felt more like an extended weekend, I actually got quite alot done:

1. ACT poster. Probably the most creative thing I've ever done. Ever. You can see it on facebook here. Remember to vote for the most Awesome Council Trio this coming Thursday!

2. Cleaned up the Bio lab. I think I filed my thumbnail flat scraping double-sided tape off the walls and tables. Thanks guys for coming down even though it was during the hols!

3. Got the bugs in this blog template worked out. Haha my HTML ain't so bad after all!

Which leaves me with very few things to complete:

1.Econs video...lets just film Sam buying prata on monday guys
2.EE - I need to start!
3.CAS - documentation
4.GWLG video
5.Econs Hw
6.Chinese Hw
7.Think of IOP topics
8.Hist Hw
9.IAs (Econs,Hist...so far)

Haha, of the 9 up there, 3 of them are econs. The wrath of soonhuat will come down upon me.

And a reminder to all 5.17 ppl: bring $33 on monday.

Edit:
This is what the innocent pengiun just said to me on msn:
"Oh my, look at the light upon its face. Enlightenment of Diabolical World Domination. And the Blue Rays of Bovine Chaos....see the evil grin"

er.

Edit2:
I just had the most amazing conversation with Charlotte! Haha yes, I'll bring Groban, you bring Buble!
