10 July [Investiture]

Damm.. I should have totally skipped school yesterday..
When i reached the one school hill, the teachers are having their walk out of the hall.
Then again, there's still BUFFET! Or so i thought.

In place of the pretty buffet table i visualized, was a pathetic excuse for a table of food...
Apparently, the councillors had different visualizations from mine...
I mean, their main agenda after the investiture was to swarm and surge at the buffet table, leaving the poor councillors from other school to fend for themselves.. That's fine though, they've probably never seen the REAL AHS council investiture BUFFET.. Probably thanks to the NEW council teacher in charge. Poor sods.. Haha.. okay, I'm so mean.. whatever.. It's a gloomy day and i need to channel outwards my distress.

Anyway, the 39th SMEXCO were pretty cool.. I mean, after knowing each other for so many years, there'd no need for us to retain certain images. We can behave crazily and rekindle the kid in us.. Haha, really, i don't remembering laughing and yaking so much.. since forever..actually, it was since March... I mean, it was pretty much soothing, cuz they don't judge, and they say or do things that makes others feels so comfortable.. intentional or not... I mean, if we ever behave like that in SP, we'd be laughed at or teased so badly..

Some of them had trainings so they left, leaving the rest of us. Some of us went my house and the others went home. we had a dry swim, aka mahjong(Still my favourite activity after so many years) and the rest gathered around the telly watching the fishball drama.. It was like chalet i guess.. Haha.

Then we went down to 85 to have dinner.. I had a sandwich before going down so i drank only sugarcane(SP doesn't sell them!!) After much mindless chatting that digressed out original discussion of the next outing, we went home.. Kinda in groups...

Everyone, you're missed.. Well, maybe except you.

It was kinda hectic today.
Not the busy-hectic.. It's more of a confusing-hectic.
Y'know what i mean?
It's like everything seem to happen so quickly, and when you start to react, it's all over and the next happening is rushing past you..

I think everyone is kinda pissed with everyone else.
It's like.. you can totally sense that there's something sinister and heavy hanging in the air, but on the surface, everyone is conversing normally. I guess it's kinda like the
i-dun-like-you-and-I'm-not-going-to-show-but-i-still-dun-like-you thing.
Maybe it's just be being cynical or skeptical, but that's what I'm feeling.

Amanda Loh, DARK CLOUDS ARE COMING!!!

I just smacked this small white thing running up my left calf. I think I'm going to smudge it, lest i find out what it is.. Shivers...

On a lighter note, Council Investiture is this Wednesday.
Can't wait to skip school and go back to my ONE SCHOOL HILL.
You said it best, when you said nothing at all...
I dunno why i kept thinking about this song whenever i think about ONE TREE HILL.

6 July

I used to think that i'm more of a team person.
Boy, am i so wrong..

Now, I think I'm an independent worker.
I mean, I don't like to do things in a team...anymore.
Except Foot drill and first aid and TOC. The SJ Ambulance team is still a great team as ever XD.
Other exception includes working with responsible independent individuals who have a clear idea what to do and feel the obligation to get their part done, PROPERLY , i add.
Other than that, doing things alone is definitely easier, since time wasted on communicating(ineffectively) is not incurred. Ideas are also not varied and you can do whatever you think deem fit.
You are in control of the whole situation, knowing what everything is, and when to get whatever done.Everything can be properly arranged without the need to compromise unnecessarily, instead of feeling lost and confused while waiting for other parts of the project to centralize.
Last minute changes are also less disturbing when you are working alone.

I think I'm a submissive control freak.

I conform to a capable dominant.
But I like to be in control of the situation of I'm in.
Then again, I hate delegating workloads
And I don't like to be pushed around like some bloody brainless goon.
Yet I like doing the simple tasks.

Then again, in some cases, like in the IDEAS (Innovative Design something something something) module, its better to work in groups because I'm in a team with a few other individuals who are independent and responsible.

Right now, i think i will stick to my I-think-I-work-best-alone motion.

5July[hurrayS]

HURRAY TO PRICE EQUILIBRIUM!
Oil prices have finally dropped(meagerly, but what's to complain?) after reaching its sky high price.
Its probably due to price equilibrium(I'm bullshitting) and the new found oil source in US's so called 'backyard'
But how long can this celebration last? The side effects of this oil crisis is lingering and it's bound to get worse. Start saving dudes, get ready for the Great Depression Part II.

HURRAY TO THE MAN IN BERLIN!
A job well done for ripping out Wax Hitler's pathetic excuse for a head.
Maybe he should have ripped off Wax Hitler's balls too.Oops, I meant ball. No 's'
He should have had his head ripped off many many many years ago...

CONGRATS TO THOMAS BEATIE.
(He's the sex change guy who got pregnant)
He gave birth to a girl!
And i quote what he said " the only thing i can't do is breastfeeding"
Kinda funny.. Haha

3 July

Du, du du,du du, du du du, du~~
GUESS WAD? IT'S THE FLIPSIDE!
DU DU, DU DU DU, DU, DU DU~

WTF? I have a NEGATIVE 2cents idea why my cell memory card is corrupted... Or maybe i do, just that i don't know it yet... Either way, WTF! I have to format my memory card and so there goes everything in it.. Mainly the song... So i have to go through the jog trot of transferring the songs into my cell..
Click, Press, Wait. Press, Wait, Click.
Repeat the cycle 30times.

And here's another clincher.
A really smart and enthusiastic teacher who had walnut sized cerebral hemispheres LEAKED out MST answers for STATISTICS. So the unfortunate population, who had no idea about this ,until now, had to RETAKE the test. Different questions... DOH..
I'm really intrigued as to why something this...ridiculous, would happen.
I mean, i would naturally assume that it's the student, who tried to finagle his/her way to get an A. But then, being an adult, shouldn't the teacher possess the natural compass that will show him what's right and wrong?
Ah gosh. Its really stupid.
The school should have a more stringent hold and control over the teachers. Really.
Then again, my dramatic genes is trying to convince me that there is something darker and more sinister belying what i call " the stage curtain of an accidental leakage". Maybe the teacher molested the student and had to make some amendments in order to retain his/her job? Or perhaps the student had offered him/herself to the sexually frustrated tutor? Mayhaps the tutor and the student had an affair?
Oh man, i can totally see the influence melodramatic drama plots had over me, overworking my creative mind.. HAHA..

Oh, and i did this personality test. it's fun.
Here's what it said. I have no idea how true it is.

Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

The seriousness of your love:

You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?

Your views on education

Education is less important than the real world out there, away from the classroom. Deep inside you want to start working, earning money and living on your own.

The right job for you:

You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

How do you view success:

You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.

Who is your true self:

You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.
