Today was a pretty crappy day. Had our personal talk with the Principal today. It was as Galvyn put it, all "doom and gloom". How many hours are you all studying? -points- How many A level points did you get? -points- Which faculty do you want to get in? Are you prepared to not get into uni? Everyone got questioned. Candice got pissed off by you-know-her also.
Because I was unluckily sittin gin the $128 meant for our "good brothers" （好兄弟） seat, I got shot at twice. She asked when I was completing my revision. I was temporarily stunned. I dunno. How can you not know blah blah blah...=.=
Then I got asked again. Are you prepared to NOT get into uni? No. Then what will you do if you don't get in? I...uh...retake...WE Don't Retake J2s. Fine. It's not as if I wanna come back here. I only said that to be polite and to save myself from getting shot at if I mentioned the P-word.
Truth if, I already accepted it. I ranted the other day, and if I didn't make it, I'd go to poly without ever looking back. This place has given me enough grief as it is already. Either way, she riuned my mood for the wohle day.
I was so pissed off, when I saw my friend smsed me, I had no mood to reply or to talk at the moment so I just shut off my phone for the hell of it. Even so I managed to do quite a bit of work after school today, and wonder of wonders, we got released from CLB early because the teacher was kinda sick. YEAH! Missed plenty of lessons already. Eugene was mildly annoyed as he had waited two free periods for this lesson which lasted 15 mins. Hahaha...
Off to mug chem for tomorrow...

Hmm...Slept at 1am last night. There's a reason why I don't go to STOMP anymore...lol. Was sleepy during econs, so everything I copied down looked like crap. Had to get myself awake to attempt some questions. I wasn't receptive to the idea of using my sword to keep awake so early in the morning.
Went to Ikea with Ben and XW for our double break. Muahaha. Had French toast and a chicken sausage. Bio tuto was okay...less sleepy...lol. Lecture was full awake, and happy because I did everything. Lol. Chem lec...I felt totally stoned out of my mind. Everything seemed out of whack.
Sleepy, handwriting went to pot, felt like I was being tortured. =[ Everytime I closed my eyes my body went into hibernate, which I had to cut off halfway. I got 29 for essay again. Frick. Must be on purpose. ALWAYS. I have to redraft one whole frickin' GP essay for one sh*tty little mark to hit 30. Zzz. Total, complete, and utter waste of time. What's the point in rewriting all that crap when I'm just 1 mark away? That's like, oh, you forgot to put (3 S.F.) for this question. Please redo your entire bleeding tutorial hahaha.
I did it on the bus to save time. You can probably tell from where my handwriting goes from kinda legible to something worthy of NUS Medicine faculty's top student. Oh well, serves him right for making me waste my time on it. And then when I got off the bus, I walked along with my MP3 and continued writing. That's right, I can rewrite an essay while walking. And listening to my MP3 all at the same time. =]
Sometimes I go wish the visualiser would just, I dunno, transform and throttle him or something. hahaha...that ends my blogging for today. Time to work.

Tuition was...as usual...after that..went online to do stuff, and destress. Was like that the whole day. My grandmother and uncle popped by for a surprise visit. Nothing much else.
Yesterday I went to check out the updates Silkroad website. Looks pretty cool, with the Europe map added. But...not now. After the A's. Went the read the online comic. It was pretty funny. Apparently the admin got a player to do a comic for them, but you'll probably have to play to get some of it. It lasted for 40 strip, over 40 weeks, then no more.
When I read the last strip about the guy quitting due to "personal reasons", I felt a twinge of sadness. Partly because I wanted to see more of his work, and partly becuase it reminded me of the time I quit comic making as I was entering J1. It's another chapter of my life, that seems a million years ago. I only did 10 strips(a short story), but I got quite a lot of readers, updated every Fri-Sun, which took up a lot of my post-Os time.
It was damn fun. Reading the comments, (all positive, honest!) and I felt a sense of satisfaction and amazement that I could actually make many people laugh with what I had. It felt like a gift. I became something of a minor celebrity on that platform. I learnt a lot of things about comic-making, and the only thing I regret was posting a teaser for my new comic before announcing my resignation.
I got a lot of flak for that, and was kicking myself over disappointing my readers, but at least for every rant about "dammit why are you leaving, what about the 2nd comic?", there was one which asked the others to understand that I also had to concentrate on JC. Fat lot of good it did too. I think if I'd continued with my comic, I'd have gotten the same grades.
Problem was that it was quite time-consuming. But as long at I applied the first rule I learnt, I always produced something good.
It was: Never make something until you feel like it.
It's not to be taken literally of course. I set myself deadlines, but gave myself breathing room of Fri-Sun to update. So whenever I was in that "lets make a comic!" mood, I'd get down to it, and in 3-4 hours later I'd have it ready and up. For the 2nd strip, I tried to rush it before my deadline. People didn't find it that funny. Not so for the next 8 strips. I let myself do it whenever I felt like it, and always made my deadline and produced something people liked.
That's roughly a little bit of my comic making past. Now life is too hectic to update regularly, so I do the PMs whenever I have an idea or the time also. I also didn't work with minifigures then. Mine were handmade pixel art. Lol.
Oh, and before I forget, blog plug!

Just tried to do my stupid maths homework. Got me fucking pissed off. I can't get the answers to the frickin' tutorial questions. Steps looks right but I just can't get it. It's so fucking frustrating. Dammit. Argh. =.= Gonna get screwed again tomorrow. FUCK.
[UPDATE]
That's it. I have had it with this fucking shit. I'll just get it out. I'm still going to try my best for the fuckin' 'A's. I'll do whatever that is within my means. But maybe my best won't be enough. Well, too bad. Some people are going to say its a waste of two years. I don't give a flying FUCK. I'll probably be glad this is over. All I know is that this life is not for me. I hate this fucking shit I have to stand every week. I live each day longing for the end of school. And this has the side effect of making time pass quickly. Too quickly. My maths is fucking me up. I can't even figure out how to do the fuckin' tutorial. Dammit. Its not that I like swearing on my blog. I just feel so frickin' pissed.
I hate this fucking shit. I hate this fucking life. I hate this fucking society. Retake J2? Not on my fucking life. I seriously wholeheartedly regret coming to this hellhole to rot and kill my self in this mire of grades, academics, comptition, failure and all that shit. Maybe it is true. Because if left-handers use the right side of their brain more, I shouldn't even fucking be here. I should be off somewhere like poly. I'm not saying it's easy. Maybe I'm more suited for creative hands-on stuff. What do I do? Blame it on this screwed-up academically centered rote-learning shit society. Ah, don't mind me. I'm just ranting out all the frickin' crap in case I decide to trash my room or something. I'll probably be over it in the morning. Oh wait. I have tuition. Goody!
There's a recent debate in the papers over whether our academics are taking away our children's childhood. Hell yeah, bitches! =.=

These are the products of a new phone with focus finally(!) and a broken com. A flood of photos. Low-bandwidth users, and those with slow internet, tremble in FEAR! I had a friend who used to say something along those lines whenever she had a photo flood. Lol.
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, anyone? I've proven them correct.
Some random doodles on my stuff.
Very funny.
Doodle again.
Chocolate!
This belongs to my sis. =\
Where the school is secretly building an underground base for the Deceptions in exchange for a million dollars, spent on TVs no one watches, Sakae, and paint.
The beer truck!
Becks! Preferred by teachers marking exam scripts.
Chocolate.
My neighbour's mosquito farm. Serial fish killers. They buy fish, set them loose for a coupla weeks, the fish die and rot, and then there are no more fish. Then they rent the place out to mosquitoes free. They're Christians, dammit. Don't they know fishes are living things? I feel damn sorry for the hundreds of fish that have died here. And when my mum told her, she said the fish will eat the larvae. Yeah, when they're ALIVE. The NEA already called once but they insist on doing it again.
Ben's phone glitched after he glitched too many pokemon.
TWM.
Coke Light contains absolutely NOTHING.

Sometimes I think Apparating to school would be much easier. Next will be pics from TMT.
Mr. Lieutenant-General Galvyn.
Bubbles!
Mrs Wong complained to my mum I sleep in lectures. Looks like I will have to put this to good use...it's not really that effective, but it works. I've tried.
Would you play with me?
Randomness.
Surprise!
Amusing stuff in Calculus for Dummies. I seriouls think they should use it as textbooks. It makes math fun!
My free brownie! Lol.
XW's chocolate muffin.
Randomness
I find my doodles rather amusing. Read the questions. This was posted separate from today's post cos it is mainly just pics. Lol.
