digging for that Treasure | ||||
welcome No one ever followed his genius til it misled him. Though the result were bodily weakness, yet perhaps no one can say that the consequences were to be regretted, for these were a life in conformity to higher principles. If the day and night are such that you greet them with joy, and life emits a fragrance like flowers and sweet-scented herbs, is more elastic, more starry, more immortal,--that is your success. All nature is your congratulation, and you have cause momentarily to bless yourself. The greatest gains and values are farthest from being appreciated. We easily come to doubt if they exist. We soon forget them. They are the highest reality....the true harvest of my daily life is somewhat as intangible and indescribable as the tints of morning or evening. It is a little star-dust caught, a segment of the rainbow which I have clutched. --Henry David Thoreau |
profile There are two words to describe me: 'atheistic' and 'cynical'. Anything else, you'll have to find out by yourself. Don't like it, sue me. And that's the awful truth. |

Haven't blogged for a long time. Mostly because I couldn't be bothered to. We had the Youth Day celebration yesterday. All the teachers were preforming, it was so cool! But the last item was the best. The teachers were dancing to Buttons by the Pussycat Dolls... as in really dancing. It really wasn't suitable for us feeble-minded sec ones, but who gives a shit? The whole school was clapping and cheering when they started to shake their ass, we almost brought the roof down. Some of the teachers were singing songs, the sad part was that they were only singing gay Chinese songs. But all in all, it was a fun day. Monday's a holiday, which means I can stay up late and watch Lost. WHOOHOO! I don't want to be a spoiler but Sharon says that in the end (she has the complete season) they leave the island on a helicopter, but I really don't think it's gonna end there. I read in the newspapers that it was scheduled to end in 2010, but I have no way to find out, other that to watch it that is! // Saturday, June 30, 2007, 10:41 AM You know, it really shouldn't be called 'holidays' because there is nothing interesting happening! Oh and Lydia, spam someone else's blog, PLEASE! Right now I'm watching soccer, only it's not really soccer because the players suck. Why aren't there anything nice to watch during the so-called holidays? Grrr... Seems like everything I try to do to entertain me doesn't work. TV? Nope. Games? Yeah right! Even the books I borrow are boring! I hate the holidays. I want to do something... something exciting like watching a movie! OH MY GOD! I was watching the TV, it was the comercials. and then BAM! LOST IS BACK! WHOOHOOO! 24 June... When does the 'holidays' end? Who cares? LOST RULES! Finally something worth waiting for... YEAH! I'm totally going crazy here...so just ignore... // Friday, June 15, 2007, 8:27 PM It's sooo boring nowadays... I watched Ocean's Thirteen on Friday with my Ma. It was really nice, and funny, but I still like Ocean's Eleven better. But there were these group of guys (seemingly ah bengs) who were sitting quite close to us who laughed (as in REALLY loudly) at everything! seriously, if a guy walks in a room or something, they laugh, when it comes to a funny part, you don't even want to know. Damn, why watch something you don't even understand? Do they need to see a sign telling them when to laugh and when not to? I curse them man! I realised that I'm extremely unlucky, not in real life, but in games like Diablo II. While Cyn finds all the cool unique and set items, I'm still using RARE items and lousy sets like Sigons. I'm still wearing Spirit Shroud at level 69! My magic find is 70-90+, hers is 200+! It's extremely unfair lah! Haiyah... My Paladin sucks like hell, and Cyn's Barb is quite good because she has all the items, plus she is 8 levels higher than me, mostly because I don't play much. If you guys don't know what the hell I'm talking about, just ignore. I'm gonna go read, and hopefully, I don't develop a painful headache that I do every single day. // Sunday, June 10, 2007, 11:27 AM yo people, canyou do me a favour? Go to this website http://www.freewebs.com/randomstuff1294/ and just read it. It's for my PBL project. Just make it look alive, and post your comments in the forum. PLEASE! // Friday, June 8, 2007, 10:06 AM I just found out I have more homework. Damn it! I hate English! I have to do two comprehensions, 3 book reviews and a composition with the title 'An Ambitious Attempt'. I'm having writers' block... I can't think of anything. I finished everything but the compo yesterday (yes in one day!). OH, I HATE HOMEWORK. I need inspiration, so guys, can you please help me out? What counts as 'ambitious'? The keyword is 'attempt', so does that mean the character succeeded? What should the attempt be? I really want to get this over and done with, that way, I can pass the holiday worry-free and without a care in the world, instead of fussing over what to write about. Ocean's Thirteen premiers tomorrow, and I really can't wait to watch it! Cyn's watching it with her friends at Plaza Singapura on Friday, but I don't want to go with her because first of all, Mom won't give us money for food and second of all, I hate it when her friends start pestering me and calling me 'Cynthia's Twin'. Trust me, I get enough of that as it is. So I'm gonna watch it with my Ma on Saturday, hopefully. My whole family loves the Ocean's trilogy. It's so weird, there are so many trilogies coming out, like Shrek 3, PoTC 3, and now Ocean's Thirteen. I wonder what Ocean is up to now, hopefully its not as confusing as the previous one with the Nightfox. Cyn doesn't like Matt Damon though, but I'm sure she loves George Clooney, even though he is so old. Although my favourite oldie has to be Richard Gere (is that how you spell it?). Anyway, I'm gonna take a nap and hopefully figure out what in the hell I'm going to write about. At least I have it better than Cyn, who has to write a STORY, as in a real novel-like thing, within the month. // Wednesday, June 6, 2007, 12:59 PM I'm BACK! Man those two days were really tiring man... Okay, this is gonna be one heck of a long entry... We (meaning my sis, my ma and I) took a coach ride to Genting. I barely slept, but the seats were extremely comfortable, and it had a LEG REST! It went way down too, but there was they friggin annoying kid who kept banging on my seat. Damn idiot man! We reached Genting at about 5am, and since we were supposed to check into the hotel at 9am, we had a long wait ahead of us. Cyn and I listened to our iPods a bit, then tried to sleep on the uncomfortable plastic chairs at the lobby. It didn't work out. Then at about 7am, we got up and decided to get some breakfast. Lugging our suitcases, we went to look for some chow. We ate at this crappy resturant inside the Indoor Theme Park. I ate spaghetti, Cyn ate wanton mee, and ma ate wanton soup. it wasn't really that good, and man was it expensive. They charged us a 10% service tax even though it was self-service man! After that, we bought out tickets and played a bit at the Indoor Theme Park as it was still a little early so the Outdoor Theme Park wasn't opened yet. We had to help ma carry the suitcases back down into the lobby. She didn't want to come play with us so she stayed in the hotel room and read her Chinese romance story thing. We played bumper cars a bit, the the lousy weak indoor roller coaster that was kinda pathetic. Then we went outdoor and played a bit. My favourite ride in the Outdoor Theme Park has to be the Corkskrew, which is the mother of all roller coasters. Too bad the queue there was really long so we could only ride it once. Then, under the persuation of Cyn, I went on the Space Shot, which basically brings you way high up and then plunges you down. When it reached the highest point, it stayed there a little while. Cyn told my to open my eyes, and boy, when I saw how high up we were, I was gonna pee in my pants. The view was spectacular though, and I'll always remember it. It was heavenly, for about a second, then it plunged down... I'll skip a few hours, forget the boring stuff, and fast forward to the next day. Ma came with us this time. We rode on the Corkskew, the Space Shot, and this driving thing where you basically just drive laps around a smallish track. My fingers were freezing though. Guess I was driving a little to fast... Then we went on a ride called the Cyclone, which was actually just a really cool roller coaster that went down a lot. After that, we went on this really fun ride where you sit on a chair suspened by chains and they whirl you aroung like a lasso or something like that. The second time, Cyn felt a little sick so we went on the bumper cars to try to cure her nausea. Amazing eh, but I think it kinda worked. How 'bout that! Then we went on this new ride called the Flying Coaster. You're lying on your stomach and spining, diving and soaring in the air. It was really cool, and I wonder if flying is really that terrifying, because if it is, I don't think I want wings man! We ate dinner and went back to the hotel for a rest, after which we watched this show that was half a magic show, half a dance performance. The plot was really stupid, but the lights were cool. It was not that bad, I must add. We were supposed to check out the next day, so we didn't buy any tickets. Instead, we watched Pirates of the Caribbean. It was way to confusing, with too many subplots, and not really finished either. I don't want to be a spoiler so I won't say much about the plot. It was really long though, almost 3 hours. After that, we got on our coach, which had massage chairs by the way, and headed back home. As it started to go down, I felt really sick, and so did Cyn. My ears felt terrible, and I had no idea why. We reached home at about 10pm and since dad was using the comp, I couln't watch Sweet November, which is one of the most tragic movies ever, the top being Titanic and Moulin Rouge. Okay, I've summed up my holidays, I think I'm going to the library by myself now, so goodbye people! // Saturday, June 2, 2007, 11:25 AM |
