Just finished flag day a few hours ago. Very very tired. Didn't collect a lot of money either, compared to Selina and Qiang Mei and many others. Poor Wei Jie only collected about one-tenth of his tin, and about half of it is his own donations.
Scrabble competition coming up in about a fortnight's time. All those who are interested, or rather, willing to be score and time-keeper please contact me. You can claim CIP hours from this.
I usually don't make more than one entry a day, but just feel compelled type something here now. The wild thoughts that just run through my mind every single minute of the day are sometimes just too much for me to take. So I guess my blog just somehow acts as a Pensieve. I extract a thought, or a few thoughts for that matter, and pen it down here. And somehow it acts just like one too. You come too close to it, you touch it and you just see what is going on inside my mind, in the probably bizarre way I see it.
The only problem is, when I pen the thought down here, it doesn't get extracted from my mind (note the contradiction?). Instead, it just seems to make a copy of what is raging through my mind. I think about a lot of things all the time and somehow or other, a tune always accompanies them. Ross Roy could be playing through my head at times, or on another day, it could be Spoon River or perhaps six hours later, it could be An American Portrait. The melodies just play through my head while all the other things I keep thinking about just play through my head at the same time. How is this possible? Ask my head.
I feel like releasing the inner demon in me. Pressure really starting to build up to a level I cannot withstand. I cannot withstand.....................................
They going Wei Jie's and Hui Zhen's house on Sunday. Think they're gonna gamble and play the whole day again I suppose, what with Wei Jie and Guang Liang losing and winning such a big sum.

My SIM card rejected. Actually all my fault. Itchy hand then go and fiddle with the security codes and end up SIM card spoil. Gonna have to pay for a new one. Dammit!!! It's quite ex lorz, then now gonna have to dip into angbao money. Shoot. Was gonna buy something with that money. Oh well, guess I can only blame myself.
The guy sitting beside me is now pumping loads of crap into my head now, everyday. And nearly every single lesson. Thank goodness he spares me (sometimes) for Maths and those subjects I'm weak in. No doubt I feel like strangling him lots of times but I think he's a pretty nice guy, even though my impression of him isn't flawless but then who is? But I think today he kena sabo by me. My calculator spoil, then during test kept borrowing his, then he had to do some of his calculations by brute force. So sorry pal, if you do read this.
Somehow, this year, I still don't feel compelled to do serious work yet, and like Mr. Murali said, we're already fully submerged in crap, so I think it's really going to get tough if I don't start now but I just can't seem to start my engine. No petrol yet, I suppose. Where's all my adrenaline? Evaporated arh? High time I stimulated my glands to produce it. Lots of it.

Heavily in debt recently. Owe people more than 10 over dollars in total. Sheesh. Big appetite. Gotta start cutting down.
I always say that but I never do it. -.-
Lolz, today band very funny. Candace screamed when a rat practically zoomed out from behind her saxophone case in the cupboard and everybody got so excited and agitated over the poor rat. Then it fled to under the stand holder. I asked Jeremy later on if he got it and he said he lost it at the IT Lab 5. ^_^ Hope no more girls will scream if they see the rat again. Hurry off!

Went Mr. Chiang's house today. Had quite a lot of fun. His house on 21st storey sia. I a bit scared of heights, so luckily I stay only on the 3rd floor. Lost a lot in blackjack. Sherman win liao lor, win over $20. The place which I sit really have super lousy fengshui lorz. I sit there, lost about 7 to 8 dollars. Jun Xian then moved to sit at my place, also lost a lot.
Then tomorrow going You Shun's house. Hope that I can win something there, if I gamble. I think sure to larz. Guang Liang loves to play mahjong, and many others sure play blackjack, so I'm sure will gamble de.

Today's the first day of the CNY. Everyone got lots of red packets right? Then on Monday must bring more money to donate. This year my angbao money decreased le. Haiz~~ Anyway, I'm going to start my revision this Saturday. Can't afford to wait any longer, otherwise sure lag behind.
Going You Shun's house this Sunday. I really can't picture 20 over people squeezing into his flat, especially since I take up the room of two people. The others going Dency's house in the morning. Then dunno gonna stay at You Shun's house for how long. He say can stay as long as we want, so I think kan zhe ban ba.

Being the spot in the middle of stripes is not easy. They form a real solid wall, blocking off any intrusions.
Haven't visited this thingy for a very long time. Just had my history test yesterday and binomial theorem test the day before. Both suck like shit. I studied causes of war in the pacific, Miss Low tested reasons for Japan's defeat. I studied peace treaties, Miss Low tested peace conferences at Yalta and Potsdam. Talk about luck.
Binomial theorem test was a little better. I could remember what to apply, except for a few parts. Still I don't think I'm going to do very well.
A couple of birthdays have passed, Alvin's as well as Siti's. Feeling kinda guilty I didn't get a gift for Siti, but then I contributed a bit to Alvin, so I guess I couldn't give both. Alvin said they got him a football jersey with his surname on and the number '9'. So cool! I think Siti also got quite a few gifts from a lot of people. Shi Qi, I'm sure, bound to give her. ;)
Test again, next week. Acid, bases and salts and stoichiometry. I love acids, bases and salts but stoichiometry...urgh! I've always hated calculations and always shall.
Then we also had the band orientation yesterday. I've got this cute guy (or so they say) in my section now, and he's got his own flute. Those clarinettists all want to try to rob him from my section. But I think the best guy was the guy from the saxophone section, Andrew. Yu Ting told me he could pitch low 'D' on the tenor saxophone. Amily was practically obsessed with the guy. I think he's good, not just on the saxophones. You should hear him playing the piano. Wei Jie and Esther got sabotaged when we were playing the game, Concentration, then they made Esther dance with Wei Jie. Then Andrew, the sec 1 guy, played 'My Heart Will Go On' on the piano. Sounded really nice.
All in all, quite a lot of things have happened since my last entry, both good and bad. Oh yeah, before I end off:
WEI LONG, ARE YOU GONNA GIVE IT TO ME OR NOT? MR. MURALI SAYS IT'S OK LE. I DYING TO TRY IT.
Just finished cutting out the newspaper cuttings for Miss Low's homework. Will die if i don't finish it by tomorrow, because I'll be nothing short of committing suicide if I don't finish her homework. No teacher, except Mr. Ho, has actually started teaching yet. It's the first week, so that's expected. Wait till the next few weeks come, then I'll start feeling the pressure, according to Mr. Murali.
Wei Long hasn't given it to me yet. Wonder if the person who took it is still healthy, alive and kicking. :P

School's reopened. Started binomial theorem on the first day of school. You Shun is right, we should learn our permutations and combinations first before learning binomial theorem. It's easier.
Hope this year won't be too stressful for me. Hey, what am I saying? Of course it'll be stressful! Hello...we're covering the syllabus by the end of May.
Just take a look at our teachers this year!
English: Mrs. Mel Cheang
Chinese: Mdm Liu Jian
History: Miss Shelley Low
Maths: Mr. Ho
Biology: Mr. Lau
Physics: Mr. Chiang (classparent)
Chemistry: Mr. Murali
Sciences and maths all taught by guys. Language-inclined subjects all taught by ladies.

Well, she got it. Oh! I forgot to ask her if she liked it! Argh! Talk about forgetfulness. How could I forget? Oh well, there's always next time. Just hoped she liked it. Thanks, Van, oops, Vanessa, for helping me with the present, if you still remember what it was.
She received it a bit late, but that doesn't matter. Just as long as she received it. Thanks Wan Ting, or whoever who helped me pass the present to her.
Today's the first day of 2004!!! Want to do well this year, but I'll probably make a bad start by not handing in certain homework? I haven't done Miss Low's homework yet!!! Same as committing suicide!!! Miss Low's going to skin me!
