Day Six
I just found out something today. I was on the phone with my mum earlier on and I jokingly asked her what is she expecting from me for this examinations.
This was briefly how the conversation went.
Me : Hahaha. So what are you expecting from me for SPM? :)
Mum : Har? Not much la.. I don't mind .. (friendly tone)
Me : Tell la. So at least I know what you expecting.
Mum : Okla. 7 As? (higher pitch)
Me : -_-
Me : If i cannot get how? I get all Cs can ar? (trying to reduce the high amount of pressure)
Mum : Ehh. All Cs cannooot. Cannot get nvm la. I not gonna cry or anything also.
Me : (less pressured) Okla. See how. But I seriously don't think I can get lor.
Mum : How many papers you have next week? 2-3 more then u start studying from now la. Then can achieve my expecatations.
Me : Okla see how.
Zzz.
My parents are actually expecting 7As. I also think that's the only results they'll be happy with.
Ironically, I just finished my 7th subject today.
7As so far? I don't think so.
Not really impossible or anything la. It all depends on the country's graph. I'm seriously wondering how the other 400,000 candidates are actually doing. I've been randomly checking anonymous SPM candidates' blogs to lighten up my curiosity.
Didn't help at all. They all are complaining about the same 'difficult' section or sharing similiar thoughts.
Sigh.
I think I'll be disappointed if I don't score for my BM, Eng, Maths, Moral. I'm not saying I'm expecting and predicting As for these few subjects but I'm just saying if I don't score an A for these few, I'll be sad. Geddit? :)
BM and Moral a little tricky though. But I know I won't be happy if I don't get A for both.
History. :/ How man. I really hope the marking is lenient as everyone is saying it is. Then I shall stand a small chance.
Those are my core subjects. Before SPM, i was targetting A for 5 of those. I think it's only natural if I'm doubting now.
Physics. I'll be happy if I score. Like I said before, I stand a small chance too. Hmm.
Today was Additional Mathematics. -_-
Paper 1 was good by my standards. I may not score as high as most of my frens did but when I checked the answers, I realised it's one of the best papers I had done.
Paper 2 was tougher. Section A was the toughest(somehow). Section B was easier. Section C I was actually wanting full marks but I just realised I got the meaning of 'acute' wrong. $^@#%!@%! 6 marks gone, not including careless mistakes for that section.
I have 3 more subjects left. Only one with a realistic chance with scoring an A. All the papers are next week.
Chem, Bio, EST.
Unless something amazing happen this weekend, I have to start thinking of ways to tell my mum on the last day of SPM that I may had just disappointed her.
Oh yea, it's her birthday btw, Happy Birthday Mum! The irony. Zzz.
I have already planned to have a chemistry discussion with Teck Eng. I'm gonna make sure it works out this time. I'll only disturb him once and that's it.
I really do not think I'm gonna score for Chem so I'll just leave it aside at the moment till my discussion.
Biology. It's all about notes and reading. Something I'm not good at but i'm still gonna try.
3 days left. 3 papers to go.
Cmon Alex. Only few days dammit!

Day Five
Day Five is different from the other days cause I only had one paper today and it was at 2pm. Moral Studies.
I like to complain on how unnecessary it is but I guess it's kinda pointless now. So I spent the whole night yesterday memorising the bloody 'definisi(s)' and talked to Petaibabe till 4-5am. We didn't really chat much just asked each other definisi till we got bored. Thx to her I managed to memorise most. I also realised my memory is not so bad after all.
The paper was alright. Realised I had made several mistakes but it SHOULD be okay.
Like the other papers, I'll just wait for the results and not make any 'predictions' whatsoever.
I also wanna specially thank Tan Heng Keat from Sr 5 Arts who became my 'driver' for the last 3 months of school. He also fetched me on 5 days of SPM to and fro. Except today cause he had a morning paper and I didn't so he just fetched me home. Thx Heng Keat! He finished his SPM today btw. Wtf. -_- Congrats.
I have only like what? 4 more days to go. I have Additional Mathematics(sux) tomorrow and my next paper after that would be on next Tuesday.
I love Add Maths but I suck badly in it.
This is a subject which I only passed ONCE in my entire upper secondary period.
And that 'once' also I barely just passed. Zzz.
I love this subject man. But I just can't score.
In need of serious luck tomorrow.
Do-able questions for me for both papers tomorrow! Thx!!!

If you have not tried the newly released and advertised Pepsi Tarik...

Don't try it.
As a fan of Pepsi, I have to admit how bad this drink is to my tastebuds. First sip, ok. Not bad. The coffee flavour was very mild. The pepsi was overpowering it. Few sips later, omg. What kinda drink is this. The cola and the coffee flavour doesnt blend at all. It was like drinking 2 different drinks at the same time. When my mind thinks of coffee, I taste coffee, when my mind thinks of cola, I taste cola. This is certainly something I will not purchase anymore unless I am in a desperate situation or something like that.
I finished it anyway. It wasn't a drink which would make you vomit or anything. But it just makes you cringe when you take a sip.
It's 4am now and I'm typing this. Overdose of caffeine. Crap.

Day Three and Day Four
Sorry this is long overdue. I wanted to post this on a daily basis but something happened on Day Three which entirely spoilt my mood and plan.
On Day Three, there were the 2 Modern Mathematic papers. There was also an Art theory paper between the 2 papers but since I did not take Art for SPM, I had a 4-hour break. It didn't feel like 4 hours anyway. My friends drove me out for breakfast, then they bought MacDonalds for lunch. During the 4 hour interval, we also had a good time chatting with each other on our future courses and the Genting trip. Pretty interesting conversations.
Many also went home during the break. -_-
The Mathematic papers were pretty easy overall. Ms.Ki(my maths teacher in school) set harder papers for Paper 2. Paper 1 was easy but I had more mistakes than trials. Zzz. I'm pretty confident for Mathematics. Hmm.
The thing which spoilt my mood was I lost my friend's handphone. Well I didn't really 'lose' it. We both played a part in it. However I still feel very responsible and sorry. So lazy to explain again. Ask me personally for details. :/
Day Four was the 3 Physics papers. Paper One was easier than expected. Questions were straight forward and answerable. But I damn disappointed cause I got like damn many wrong. My frens had like 3,4,6,8 mistakes. But I calculated and realised it doesn't affect much if you count the OVERALL score. Cause their marks would be divided by 1.9 and bla bla bla. Not much difference. Paper 2 was still okay. It wasnt OMG SUPER TOUGH or wasnt OMG SUPER EASY too. Just do-able. Realised I made several mistakes too. Should be OKAY. Essay part was slightly tougher though. Paper 3 was still okay. I really don't know how I did. Just hoping I get an examiner who is not strict and just wanna finish his job. -_-. Sigh hopefully.
I calculated with my friend who was about the same standard with me and we agak-agaked our marks. Realised we actually stood a small chance to get a borderline A! Omgz. Haha. I am expecting at least a 4B for physics. And that is not a sign of arrogance. There are ppl who are expecting 1A. GOOD LUCK ALEX.
I had no paper on Friday. My next paper would be on Tuesday, Wednesday. Moral on Tuesday, Add Maths on Wednesday.
It's all about practicing and memorising this week.
Then the following week I have Chemistry and Biology and finally, EST.
Things doesn't get any better till my final paper.
I've already finished almost half of SPM. This is faster than I thought. :)
5 days to go, 5 papers to manage.
Bwahahaha.

Day Two
I was feeling much healthier today compared to yesterday.
English One was fine.. I think I'm quite satisfied with my first essay. My 2nd one was alright. I chose the question which required me to write a story with the title An Unexpected Visitor. My whole story was alright but the same thing which happened to BM happened again. Only I was a little ready this time. Once again, they didn't announce the time remaining.. So as I was writing my final bit.. "okay..masa sudah tamat.." ZZz. Once again i hurried and wrote my last few lines. I was damn glad my story was already 'end-able'. Zzz. But I could had written a better ending!
Hmmph.
Sejarah 2 was... pretty tough. Sigh. I can see my A flying away from me.
:(
I studied all the wrong things. My mind filled with useless facts I'm trying hard to remove now. Sienz.
I don't wanna talk much about it as i fear it will jinx my results. Haha.
7 days to go. You can do it!

Day One
I am sick. I feel extremely exhausted.
Day One of SPM isn't much to brag about. I started the day off in the early hours of the morning with this wanna vomit kinda feeling. I really thought I was gonna throw up that instant but luckily I managed to hold it in. Before that, I had diarrhea(however u spell it). I was quite frustrated on why all this sickness is only coming right before my SPM.
It sucks.
IT's not like I didn't have enough sleep. Normal school days I slept even less or about the same. But during those days nothing ever happened to me. Zzz.
So I did my BM essay paper and was feeling much better during the exam. Unfortunately, the freaking whiteboard was 100000miles away and even with my glasses I couldn't read the time duration written on the board. Without any time to calculate myself, I did what I could, not knowing how many minutes left to go. So I finished my First Essay in 1 hour and that is 15 minutes more than the time recommended for that part. I spent another 20 mins thinking of points for my 2nd essay and I think I picked the wrong question as after 4-5 points, I was stuck.
GG alex.
So I thought I write about that topic from another perspective just for the satisfaction of seeing a long written essay. Unfortunately, when I was busy scribbling down my 6th point, all I heard was this..
"Masa sudah tamat. Sila berhenti menulis"
What. The. F.
Omg.
......
I looked around. Ppl didn't mind the message as much as I did. Their answer book was nicely closed and arranged. I thought as if I was screwed right in the face.
What could I do? I finished my essay by writing down my last and final sentence and assumed my 6th point is my 'penutup'.
It sucks because the bloody pengawas doesn't tell you how many minutes more to go like any other exams.
So I duno how I did honestly. I think it depends on the examiner marking my paper. I was quite happy and satisfied on how I elaborated my points and every paragraph seemed detailed with examples. Only one point missing, and a lousy 'penutup'.. how
much marks could I lose there? :/
After my BM paper I had my objective history paper. Ppl were complaining on how tough it is compared to last year but I actually thought it's like any other paper I've done. The thing with this History Objective is that the level of difficulty is always the same for me and with my 32/40 marks for last year's SPM paper.. it's really a confidence booster for me.
After that, we had a 2 hour interval before our next paper. This was the time I got really screwed. Heat started to surround my entire body and I felt as if I was going to light something up on fire. I had a slight headache and I was extremely sleepy too. I only studied for my BM2 a little before I took a short nap(which wasn't that effective anyway).
I had fever. Why. Of all days and time.
I entered the examination hall feeling tired and sick. I felt as if I was going to fall asleep especially with the presence of the air-conditioned hall.
Zzz.
I finished the exam paper faster than most people not intentionally but I used that time to take my nap. Headache was getting worst and I was feeling more tired as the seconds went pass.
Sienz. I went home just now and immediately went to sleep. I woke up 2 hours later feeling dizzy and my head felt as if it was gonna burst. I just took a Panadol Actifast just now and it worked like a charm. I am feeling much better now, just a little tired. Must be the amount of sleep I had.
That pretty much sums up my entire Day One.
I'm hoping to recover 100% and concentrate for another 8 days.
History 2 tomorrow. The subjective part. Along with 2 english papers.
All the best, Alex.

My last day, of school
So I woke up this morning, having this twisted feeling in my heart and knowing that it would be the final morning I wake up at this certain time and dress up for school. SPM is not counted because I have to wake up extra early and all I do is sit in the hall and do my exams. But that's another story alltogether..
It was an emotional day with no tears. That's how I would sum up my final day of school life. I am quite satisfied on how I closed this chapter of my life and already quite plan out how I am going to move on with my little life.
My final day started off with the distribution of the school magazine. I was part of the Editorial Board this year and I am actually feeling neutral about the magazine and that's a good thing. I expected to be disappointed after the disagreements and etc, but i'm actually feeling okay. There were many notice-able changes that were done but with a great deal of help from a teacher, it was done quite alright. Didn't turn out as planned for a few sections but it was still okay on the whole...

The orangy cover of the Cahaya 2005. Thicker than last year too!
Oh yea, they changed the cover too lol. And I'm actually not angry about that. Wow amazing. This final period of my school life really changed me. -_- The cover looks okay.. However the fonts still can be improved I feel but bah whatever. What's done is done. And once again, I'm quite pleased.
There was a short autograph session when we got our magazines when everyone started asking each other for autographs and messages. I gladly did the same as I may not get the chance to do it anymore.. Pretty fun. Nothing offensive passed throughout, I guess. Zzz.

My page of 5Science1 autographs. Not all signed as of yet.. :/
Also FINALLY got our photos we ordered like months ago. Photos we took on the Photography day. I ordered 3 and I got them all. I'm not sure if I ordered the prefects photo. If I did ..someone is definitely owing me something.. -_-

Top left : Class Photo. Top Right : Yellow House Photo. Mid : Table Tennis Club Photo(me president!)
The class was pretty small in the morning but the number increased as the time passed. Classmates came fashionably late and I guess I would do the same if I can drive too. Nothing except a short personal physics session with Ariff and the autograph session was done in the class. The rest of the day the guys went to play around like 7 year olds on their first trip to the playground. I did not join them. I didn't have the mood to. Kinda headache due to the unusual amount of sleep I had the night before.

The 5 Science 1 'guestbook'. Meant to have more signatures for sure. -_-
Surprisingly also, the birthday chart that was posted on our class' notice board quite early this year was still intact! I mean the rest like the duty roster and the timetable if there was one were not there anymore. Pretty cool. I feel it has some kinda hidden meaning behind the reason on why is it still in almost flawless condition too. ;)

The 'still intact' beautiful birthday chart designed by Pei Huan.
I went around the school with Kim after that to snap some shots we feel was meaningful. Kim also wanted to take some photos with her Senior 4 friends.. Kinda surprised she got Sr 4 friends but what the hell. We went up to the hall to have a peek on what we were gonna face the following week and weeks to come. The tables were arranged and the examination awaits.. Obviously the hall was locked so I only managed to snap a shot from the outside..

My table is visible from here! I'm not kidding. It's one of those tables at the further end.

Sekolah Seri Cahaya's view of the Junior's Block from the Senior's Block. Spent 2 years there. Good old times. :)
My friends are a great bunch and I'm sincerely glad to have them. Like I said in my speech on English Week, this school offered me nothing else but great memories and friends. Thank you guys for being there for me. 5,6,7 years. Even if we had our misunderstandings, we still always managed to get along in the end. This is especially to you, praveen. -_-

L-R : Teck Eng, Praveen, Kim, Teck Kuan.

L-R : Huey Shyan, Koi Lin, Hadyna

L-R : Jehan, Hadyna
I am so happy to have ended it yet I feel so 'lost'...the feeling is like i had lost something important and I cannot turn back time to retrieve it. I still can't get over the fact that this would be no more my 2nd home next year and my 5 year long classmates would be going on their seperate ways.
My memories would be unforgettable and full of excitement, fun and joy. I really love what Seri Cahaya had done to me despite what ppl often complain about it. It may not be the best school in the world but I appreciate the people who are in that particular school, teacher or learners, they have all been my friends for my 7 years in that school and I truly cherish every single moment I had been there. I have a tendency to forget sad events and I have already forgotten them all. Who cared what Punitha had punished me or what Mr.Yam had confiscated from me. The fact remains that every single person I meet in that school had influenced me in some way or another and without any of them I cannot be the Alex I am today. From the bottom of my heart, I thank every single person I met from Sekolah Seri Cahaya including my seniors, my juniors and my teachers.
Again from my speech,
"When I first stepped into this school, I was shocked. This was nothing like in the brochures. Why was there only one single small block? It was supposed to be 3! I thought I had made the biggest on my life but it was only now that I thought I made the best choice of my life. This school may not have the best facilities but it has given me great memories and fun. The friends I met here are all amazing people and without them I dont know what will I be"
Thank you guys for ur support and endless encouragements. If I offended anyone of you throughout the whole period I know you guys, I apologize from the bottom of my heart. It has been no easy ride or no pleasure cruise. But together we held each other hands and faced every obstacles that was in our way.
I know things will never be the same in the years to come. I love every single one of you despite the things I say or what any of you guys heard I said. If I'm being too emotional now, screw it. Because that is what i'm feeling right now and I'm happy to be expressing myself.
Once again, thank you all for making me who I am today. This feeling can't be any better.
If i was asked what last words will i give if i have a chance.. it will definitely have to be this last few words.
Thank you. Everyone of you guys have been phenomenal.

My schoolbag which I will definitely miss!

I mean the rest like the duty roster and the timetable if there was one were not there anymore. Pretty cool. I feel it has some kinda hidden meaning behind the reason on why is it still in almost flawless condition too. ;)
The 'still intact' beautiful birthday chart designed by Pei Huan.
I went around the school with Kim after that to snap some shots we feel was meaningful. Kim also wanted to take some photos with her Senior 4 friends.. Kinda surprised she got Sr 4 friends but what the hell. We went up to the hall to have a peek on what we were gonna face the following week and weeks to come. The tables were arranged and the examination awaits.. Obviously the hall was locked so I only managed to snap a shot from the outside..
My table is visible from here! I'm not kidding. It's one of those tables at the further end.
Sekolah Seri Cahaya's view of the Junior's Block from the Senior's Block. Spent 2 years there. Good old times. :)
My friends are a great bunch and I'm sincerely glad to have them. Like I said in my speech on English Week, this school offered me nothing else but great memories and friends. Thank you guys for being there for me. 5,6,7 years. Even if we had our misunderstandings, we still always managed to get along in the end. This is especially to you, praveen. -_-
L-R : Teck Eng, Praveen, Kim, Teck Kuan.
L-R : Huey Shyan, Koi Lin, Hadyna
L-R : Jehan, Hadyna
I am so happy to have ended it yet I feel so 'lost'...the feeling is like i had lost something important and I cannot turn back time to retrieve it. I still can't get over the fact that this would be no more my 2nd home next year and my 5 year long classmates would be going on their seperate ways.
My memories would be unforgettable and full of excitement, fun and joy. I really love what Seri Cahaya had done to me despite what ppl often complain about it. It may not be the best school in the world but I appreciate the people who are in that particular school, teacher or learners, they have all been my friends for my 7 years in that school and I truly cherish every single moment I had been there. I have a tendency to forget sad events and I have already forgotten them all. Who cared what Punitha had punished me or what Mr.Yam had confiscated from me. The fact remains that every single person I meet in that school had influenced me in some way or another and without any of them I cannot be the Alex I am today. From the bottom of my heart, I thank every single person I met from Sekolah Seri Cahaya including my seniors, my juniors and my teachers.
Again from my speech,
"When I first stepped into this school, I was shocked. This was nothing like in the brochures. Why was there only one single small block? It was supposed to be 3! I thought I had made the biggest on my life but it was only now that I thought I made the best choice of my life. This school may not have the best facilities but it has given me great memories and fun. The friends I met here are all amazing people and without them I dont know what will I be"
Thank you guys for ur support and endless encouragements. If I offended anyone of you throughout the whole period I know you guys, I apologize from the bottom of my heart. It has been no easy ride or no pleasure cruise. But together we held each other hands and faced every obstacles that was in our way.
I know things will never be the same in the years to come. I love every single one of you despite the things I say or what any of you guys heard I said. If I'm being too emotional now, screw it. Because that is what i'm feeling right now and I'm happy to be expressing myself.
Once again, thank you all for making me who I am today. This feeling can't be any better.
If i was asked what last words will i give if i have a chance.. it will definitely have to be this last few words.
Thank you. Everyone of you guys have been phenomenal.
My schoolbag which I will definitely miss!

Omgz.
Hahahaha. I can count the days to go to SPM with one hand!
Bwahahaha. I think I'm going insane.
So tomorrow, much later today to be exact..since it has already pass 12am..

Not any ordinary last days. It's the last day, forever!

I'm not really like omgz so sad or anything.. Just u know.. feeling a little awkward. Next year no more school. Kinda like. Passed a stage in life u know?
It's like.. Everyone goes to school. And now. School's over. Parents will automatically put more responsibility.. In that kinda way. I suck in explaining.
Hopefully I'll manage to take enough photos for tomorrow. I shall post some. FINAL DAY GODDAMMIT. ACT MORE EXCITED OR SOMETHING!
For now,
I'll be going to bed soon. Final day of school. And i'm not even 17 yet.

Less than a week till SPM. Wow. Haha. I'm a big boy. So close. I'm not gonna blog about how much I need to study now. Cause it's pointless.
:)
If the last post was dedicated to my class teacher, this post is dedicated to my class, Sr 5 Sc 1.
Thx guys for making it all happen. Because of you guys we have a class forum and a class blog. Eventhough they are both dead at the moment..but hey cmon, it's still there!
I'll start posting individual messages to each and every one of my classmates soon..and maybe some other ppl from other places which are of the same birthyear with me.. Yeap that includes you too, joyce. Just a personal word of thanks from me..since this is my final schooling year, I wanna give a little tribute to friends whom I met while studying in school.
Here are a few pics I took on the second last friday of school. The last friday is this coming friday btw.
Sorry if these shots are taken from limited angles. I just wanna post pics cause I'm in the mood.

Clockwise from top left : Chuang Sing, Allen, Vivian, Kelvin, Haris, unknown, Jia Xin, Wan Choy, Kar Wai and Richmond(hidden).

L - R : Richmond, Jia Xin, Su Cheng, Cezlynn, Kim, Kar Wai, Kelvin

L - R : Same la as above. Additional guy beside Kelvin is Chuang Sing.
Hmmz.
I know things will never be the same as before.

8/lapan
8 days more.
It's getting closer..
How.
I woke up at 7pm on Friday. Not a good sign. Especially having an exam in less than 2 weeks.
Bwahaha. Btw, I dedicate this post to my final class teacher, Ms. Josephine! She teaches me chem(oh the irony) and is kinda cool really. Apparently she's the female version of Ariff or vice versa. She's not any ordinary science teacher.. She loves acting angry to scare the shit out of everyone. Thx for being a good sport this whole year Josephine!
7 most Memorable moments :-
1) Sent Kelvin Tan out of the Chemistry Lab after he intentionally spirked water onto her. The funny thing was, the whole class was shooting water to each other just the week before during the same class. Hahaha. This has to be number one here. This incident is in the running for the funniest event of 5science1 too :D
2) Made my life a living hell after being extremely 'honest' with my Dad during report card day. Yeap, no modem for 2 weeks. That's the one.
3) Tried 'comforting' me at Genting when i lost my wallet there after Form 3 when she followed my class to excursion. Lol good effort.
4) Helped me score an A for science in UPSR. She thought me in Junior 6 too.
5) Gave me a 6C for Chemistry for my forecast. <-- That's good by my standards.
6) Her evil laughter.
7) Her lameness.
This is her, not a good picture..but it shows her true..personality. Just look at those eyes... *shivers*

creepy.

11/Sebelas
11 more days till SPM begins.
That's very short.
I know.
It's already November. SPM starts this month. I gotta work 25125X harder.
Here's a look on my SPM registration slip thing.

Somehow I feel Number 8 shouldn't be there.. :/
Had tuition today at 9am in the freaking morning. So freaking early omg. So I slept at 2am but still realised that I did not have sufficient sleep. So I got back home, ate some breakfast and fell asleep at about 2pm. Woke up at 5pm just now. Ate half-boiled egg my sister made and I'm now here typing this.
I can imagine my friends cramming everything into their brains at this very second and I'm here staring at the computer screen. It reminds me of my PMR days. Only except I worked like 10% more that year. Only because it was so freaking 'study-able'. Unlike now. What happens if I come across something I don't understand now.
Then I have nobody to ask. Then ppl will tell me too late. Then I will be officially gg-ed.
My mind's full of junk I have to get rid of.
I also realised in exactly one month's time for now will be the last day of SPM.
For now, pls spend a couple of seconds n put me in your prayers. I do know there's a saying which goes 'God won't help ppl who doesn't help themselves'...but I also know there's another saying which goes 'we have to forgive and forget' and I hope it's not too late.
and No. I still will not regret.

Ow.
My forehead hurts. I think I got like 3 new pimples.
I was randomly rubbing my forehead when suddenly I touched a painful bump. I moved around more and realised there are about 2 more which hurts. To add to that, my palm was almost fully covered with oil.
Heck. What is happening.
Screw you pimples.
Gah,

When the clock shows 3:21am and you are not yet asleep and still facing the computer with 'sejarah' notes scattered in front of you, you know you are in deep shit
Not long more.
(shivers)
Hmm.
I duno what to say.
It feels like.. I'm just waiting for the time to come. Just sitting here letting the seconds tick away and just let time pass and yet there is this twisted feeling in your heart telling you that you are not prepared to face it yet.
Hmm. Dunno how. I've also decided that I may not screw Chemistry just yet. :) Teck Eng was my saviour and he today decided to tutor me the basic stuff you must know for Chemistry. Well apparently if I know the few stuff he thought, I wouldn't fail and will at least score a credit. That's kinda cool considering I had originally planned to forget about Chemistry. And yea, the stuff he thought enlightened me alot. Chemistry's kinda interesting now the way I look at it. Thanks TE!
Today's the last day for certain schools. Yesterday for another number of schools.
I wonder how the Form 5s are taking it over there. I have one more week of school. The week after the upcoming holiday week would be my last. I had planned to do sooo many things with different friends on how are we going to give the best goodbye ever. I had planned with one friend to put all memories into a form of Cds, planned with another to take as many photos as possible, planned with another to give an individual goodbye speech. Obviously I hope I can manage to do all of that but if only time allows. Sigh. So little time.
It's so sudden ya know. Teachers telling us to study like 2 months ago. Suddenly after the trials I had already like 3-4 weeks to SPM. Very sudden indeed.
I know i'm not incapable of scoring good results. I do know I'm capable.
My forecast results may show a little on how I am doing but it doesn't show my inner strength and abilities at all.
With a little bit of will, I'm gonna prove my teachers who gave me Cs and Bs wrong.
Thank you,

The man
I am a misai boy who scored 3A1s, 1A2, 1B3, 1B4 15C, 26Cs for my forecast.
Which also means 4As,2Bs,3Cs.
And nope, i'm not that shy about my results. If not it wouldn't be posted here.
I'm such a effing noob.
I still got one more Biology paper to go but I doubt it'll affect my forecast by anyhow.
Hooray to me. A1 for BM, eng, EST just in case you're curious. And 6C for what else but Chem and Add Maths.

25 days, 50 mins
Yeap. That's how long till SPM actually begins. Pretty scary thought. Even after watching The Amazing Race just now, was intially excited after watching next week's preview. But after thinking how close it is to SPM next week, mixed feelings. Hmm.
Results were pretty not satisfying so far. I did horrible for my Chemistry and Add Maths Paper 1. I'm actually kinda disappointed. I'm gonna do something about it.
Other than that, I believe most teachers had already finished marking. I heard lots of senior 5 parents were complaining cause of how late the trials were and how are they gonna apply for scolarship and such. As such, I think all the results will be finalised tomorrow with exception of Biology I think cause we just finished Bio this Monday.
Damn sad. Getting so near.
Aih.

Dell 24" Widescreen UltraSharpTM 2405FPW Flat Panel Monitor
Dad bought a freaking awesome monitor for himself. But i'm using it temporarily.. best resolution goes up to 1920X1200. It's the Dell 2405FPW.
Bwahaha. Tried Dota-ing just now with the monitor. Initially got a little headache but it didn't take too long for me to get used to it. It's a little weird cause the units are bigger than usual so it's like erm, will take some time to micro haha. Now thinking like omg, if I still could play World of Warcraft. Will be damn damn damn chun man!

Chunted. Damn big. Hahaha.

Playing Dota requires you to be more observant.

Too bad I still got Biology exam on Monday and SPM in one month's time.
If not it's gonna be WoW frenzy for me with this baby!

Not over
So I have one more paper this coming Monday, Biology for my SPM trials. The science week wasn't woweee as expected. Chemistry was horrrribleee.. Add Maths i really duno how I did. Physics, checked my paper 2 and realised it was about the same standard with any other physics paper i've done.
I duno man. It just seemed like I just cannot pass the barrier. The barrier which after crossing will only trigger the improvement... I'm just so stucked. My science subjects marks are the most consistent marks of all my subjects. It's not like it's a good thing. But the marks ranges from 40-50. Every single time.
That's like damn sad.
Sigh.
What happened to the Alex who actually studied and worked. Well maybe it was never there. But it was never 'this' bad. I mean, yeah i've been working now and all. Too late? I duno. But I just know that I will not regret if my SPM results are not satisfying.
But hmm, there's still one more month.
Gogogogogogo Alex!

Blogskins
That's it. Spent 2.5 hours searching for a new blogskin at www.blogskin.com but OMGWHATTHETOOTOEEOBOOTEATAEGAEGHAOROHORNYCOWPROBLEMGAHGUHGEE man!!! Some either focuses ur text at one small little box at the center, some fonts too small or some looks nice initially but after going through all the hassle in editing ur template, previewing it sucks. So I'm just gonna remain it as it is at the meantime. I'll probably change the colour and that's it.
I had enuff :(
So the only changes i've made to this Blog is 2 brand new fresh links! One to Mei Chan(Petaibabe) and another to Teck Eng(LTE). Do visit them as they are interesting individuals like you and me too! :D
Gonna relax my mind now after stressing myself over the blogskins. Grrr.

28th November
:) These days I received many emails regarding on what the birthday of a certain someone actually means. I don't know if it's true but I sure like it to be everytime :D Well i analysed two of these kinda emails i got and this were the answers.
Is your birthday day 28 of the month?
Your Life
You are a capable person but you usually underestimate your own ability.
This is the cause of missing numbers of opportunity to step forward. If you
try to give yourself a chance, you can be successful in life. Try to see
things on the bright side and you will be happier than ever.
Your Love
You are quite unlucky in love. The one in your arm is not the one in your
heart. Your love has so many ups and downs. You often chicken out before
seeing any progress in love.
I also checked...
NOVEMBER:
> >>Has a lot of ideas. Difficult to fathom. Thinks forward. Unique
and
> >>brilliant. Extraordinary ideas. Sharp thinking. Fine and
strong
> >>clairvoyance. Can become good doctors. Dynamic in
> >>personality. Secretive. Inquisitive. Knows how to dig secrets.
> >>Always thinking.Less talkative but amiable. Brave and generous.
> >>Patient. Stubborn and hard-hearted. If there is a will, there is a
> >>way. Determined. Never give up. Hardly becomes angry unless
> >>provoked. Loves to be alone. Thinks differently from others.
> >>Sharp-minded. Motivates oneself. Does not
> >>appreciates praises. High- spirited. Well-built and tough. Deep
> >>love and emotions.Romantic. Uncertain in relationships. Homely.
> >>Hardworking. High abilities.Trustworthy. Honest and keeps
>

Well they certainly sound nice but I still have my doubts. For example, "hardly becomes angry unless provoked"...this is certainly untrue. I get easily very fast. -_- ..I'm also not patient and i DO appreciate praises. I'm not high-spirited and I dont think i'm well-built either. Hardworking is laughable. Hahaha. Other than that shud be right :P.
And I don't like the Love Life thing. Unlucky in love?!!!

:) These days I received many emails regarding on what the birthday of a certain someone actually means. I don't know if it's true but I sure like it to be everytime :D Well i analysed two of these kinda emails i got and this were the answers.
Is your birthday day 28 of the month?
Your Life
You are a capable person but you usually underestimate your own ability.
This is the cause of missing numbers of opportunity to step forward. If you
try to give yourself a chance, you can be successful in life. Try to see
things on the bright side and you will be happier than ever.
Your Love
You are quite unlucky in love. The one in your arm is not the one in your
heart. Your love has so many ups and downs. You often chicken out before
seeing any progress in love.
I also checked...

Dad's birthday
My family has this thing of celebrating every single family member's birthday regardless of the age whatsoever. As long as you are still part of the family and is available in Malaysia(to my 2nd sis n bro ;P), your birthday will definitely be celebrated. Not with balloons and party hats and all but maybe just a nice dinner outside and the famous tradition of blowing the birthday cake. Btw, the time you spent with friends is either the night before or the morning/afternoon of your birthday. I personally think this is a good way to keep the family bonded every year. :D
So 2 days ago, on the 5th, my family and I went for a dinner outside. I was in the middle of my trials(I'm still in the middle of my trials now) but what the heck. I wouldn't miss it. So as I sleepily woke up from my regular afternoon nap, I got myself ready that night and my sister was impatiently ushering me to the car. A few minutes later on the road, I could start talking again.
Me : Eh, where we going to eat ar?
Sis: Some vegetarian restaurant.
Me : (What the heck!) Har, why?!!!!
Sis: Mum eating vegetarian today wor. Have to lah.
Me : Sigh. Yeah hor. Hmmm.
Sis: Lol.
Everyone knows I hate vegetables. Omg. The bitterness. When i was younger, i couldn't see why anyone could ever eat it as if they don't feel a single thing. I mean, how could some even say things like ,"wah, damn nice" when they chew on the..green leaves!
So anyway, I knew I had no choice and not eating meat that night may not be as bad as I initially thought too. Firstly definitely for health reasons.. The other was it wasn't the first time my family went to a vegetarian restaurant for a birthday dinner. So I remembered the last time I went and the food wasn't that bad. I mean they actually have fish, meat, mutton made from vegetables. Very good efforts I should say.. looking at the food which really looked like real meat but in fact was actually made by flour etc etc. Some looked so similiar(and even tasted quite similiar) until my Dad made a joke about even if they really put meat inside, you wouldn't know.
Well, he has a point you know. Hmmm.
So after a short ride in the car, I finally arrived! The shop name was Lian Chi Vege Health Food restaurant. Damn, what a turn-off. Health food never tasted as good as it benefits. I think this is where the 'you gotta give and take' phrase comes in.

It didn't take long for me to realised the ceiling design inside was really good! They have this lanterny lord-of-the-rings-elf-land-lanterns hanging from the ceiling. Other than that, the entire restaurant was pretty ordinary.

My parents, aunty and a friend of my family's came a little later and joined my sis,grandma(was with us) and me. My sister ordered the food and the orders were eatable. Lol. A while later, the waiter came in and arranged the bowls in a circular order. Just like what they do in chinese restaurants before the shark fin soup comes out! It was kinda exciting thinking what soup was gonna appear. When the waiter brought the huge soup bowl in, it actually smelt like the shark fins soup! I wasn't kidding. Definitely, it wasn't. It was just this. -_-"

And hey it is not as bad as it looks(maybe). It tasted fine except for some strands of vegetable and the soup is in fact green in colour. -_-"
I didn't take any pictures after that as I thought it was a little distracting to my family members. :P The few dished which came out next was actually quite good especially the fake curry mutton. That is my favourite vegetarian dish and I'm proud of it! :D
My Dad's birthday celebration continued with my entire family singing the Happy Birthday Song and blowing of the cake in my Mum's Office in her shop. The cake tasted not bad and I gotta go home after that.(The next day I was going to have my Sejarah paper. I did quite okay I think for that paper.)
Summary of One Week of Trials.
The papers were okay. Wasn't that easy wasn't that difficult. I hope I would get some surprise results which I myself didn't expect I would get. I asked for my Moral marks a little earlier in school today before my Maths Examinations and my teacher was like, "you ar...macam enam puluh lebih..sixty something.. saya tak berapa ingat. saya tahu cuma 2 orang dapat lima puluh lebih dalam kelas ini" Wtf. Wasn't very motivating or convincing. Actually made me thought about it and worry during my second maths paper. Grrr. I hope he REALLY wasn't sure. I'm certainly wasn't expecting sixty something especially after I realised alot of ppl got 70 something and the highest was 82. Argh. Frustration. Somehow, I think i shouldn't had asked for my marks. Oh well. Come to think about it, i know ppl who failed their moral. So erm, it isn' so bad? Sigh. I really don't want sixty something!~ I will be damn disappointed. Sigh.
Next week is the dreaded week of any examinations. The Science Week. The week which is gonna pull my first week marks down like hell. Damn dumbbbbbbbbbbbbbb. Hope can score for my Physics. Add maths..I really hope I would pass again and hopefully score higher, but the recent results I got in class wasn't very convincing. Nooo. For chemistry, hahahahahaha.

Where did it go all wrong?
Are friends still called friends if they actually annoys u till u don't feel like talking to them anymore?
I'm so bloody confused.
This is a confession i am going to make. My so-called friends who we were just on the best of terms very recently, are beginning to make me dislike them. Or are already halfway through.
Why do I have to care anymore? People tell me I am not the cheerful guy I was last time. Like they actually give a damn. Then they will start gossiping about me to other ppl. "hey look, anyone noticed Alex's a little moody these days?" Why DO U ACTUALLY CARE?! If i'm moody, it will be because of you.
I don't know what's wrong with everyone. I don't know what's wrong with myself. Each day it seems to be getting worst. I kept wondering why were they so close to me before. Why have they changed so much? As i pondered today in school, one classmate actually told me,"If you think everyone has a problem, it's actually you"
I don't even know whether to agree or not. That specific classmate doesn't seem to be having any problems with anyone just recently. She still smiles and acts normal. But when I do notices someone doing something annoying, I'll immediately show her and she'll just nod it off. Why does she not seem to care? Why is she closing one eye for all this. Has she known this earlier or is just simply being ignorant?
I don't have a problem with everyone. Just a specific few. Maybe a specific lot. Some I show my disagreements, some I don't. Maybe it's me, for all I care. But it doesn't matter if that someone is my true friend. Even if it's just me, it takes a test like this of true mettle to test a friendship. Looks like it had already affected some of my friendships. It may not be obvious but it'll certainly show me who I really have as friends and who are just clinging to my back for no reason whatsoever.
Confused by this changing temperament, I approached a friend today and asked him a question and try to strike a conversation, with a smile. "So u blocked me that day after u sounded angry?" "Yes,"he replied with a guilty smile. "Why?" "I was pissed off that day"
After that, of course i kept bugging him for more info. But he didn't want to say anything. So i said ,"Why are u not saying anything?" . "If i say anything, it'll just ruin our friendship. I wouldn't lie to u. Just know that."
After that awkward conversation, I kept oddly silent not being able to mention a single word, drowned in my pool of thoughts. What has gone wrong? It was clearly him i was 100% sure who made the mistake that made me angry and made him pissed and resulted in him blocking me on MSN.
Or was it just me? Is it just me? Why has things changed so much. And why didn't it affect ALL my friends if I was really the one at fault. And i think i'm still getting annoyed with my friends over the same reason some time ago. It just looks as if I am having some kinda problem because all is occuring all at once.
Or is it not?
I go to school, step into my class everyday with this twisted feeling in my heart. Like things could be better if so and so were not there. I know that's a bad thought, but it just automatically comes out. I walk into my not lighted up class and will be thinking about how I would want to avoid so and so for a certain period before I become more 'blended-in' with the class. For me, it's just a simple matter of getting used to it. And why should i even be getting used to it anyway? I should be loving my class until i dream about it at night. But apparently not, even if i dream, I think it'll just give me nightmares.
But all this bad thoughts about who should not be in the class will disappear as soon as the first teacher walks in and turn on the lights. I guess I'll feel better once everything is in place when the class is full and all. I know I am not someone who people will be super happy at my arrival in class or get flooded with "good morning" greetings. I like to see myself as someone who people talk to after a while and get recognized as a good guy and is in the crowd. Afterall, i hate the morning sessions of discussions.
Annoying friends are making me sick but I do know without them i would never be the same person i am. Not necessarily the worst though, but even if u give me a choice to go back to the past and choose my friends from there or simply give me a list to mark my friends, I will make sure every single name is checked.
I am someone who gets angry fast, but forgives extremely fast as well.
That personality of mine is probably the reason why all this is happening actually.

I thought I saw it coming
(I know I was supposed to post alot of things i've promised. But that will have to wait until later. I am extremely busy with many projects and designing and not forgetting SPM of course. With the trials coming soon, i'll have to leave all this to later. thx for reading)
Days have passed by quickly and the clock is ticking endlessly. I know what's awaiting and yet ppl around me are seemingly assuming that I just do not care. I thought i had managed to stop it from happening but apparently not. People are still thinking. Looking at me as if I don't give a damn about my future.
Everyday, I wake up with this heavy load of my head, pushing me ever so hard. And yet everyday I still have to fight it off with my personal self motivation and inner strength. I'm not superman. I'm no brilliant kid. I'm definitely not an all rounder.
Friends who i know are doing worst than me. But why am i to be pointed out always?
I don't get the fact where ppl say they see something in me which they dont see in others. What the hell for?
Just now, my father picked me up from tuition and drove me home. I already expected to receive some kind of lecture from him as my parents were quite annoyed when they realised i hadn't slept at 1.30am. I was right. He started by saying he wanted me to sleep earlier. I just nodded and gave a very annoyed 'mmm'. I didn't argue, i wasn't train too. Then he went on to say something which went something like if I fail, just remember and know that I wasn't working hard enough. I gave a low soft toned reply, "i've been studying." How many times I tried putting that very statement into my parents head. They just don't seemed to be able to catch it in or simply don't want to. Then my dad continued,"frankly speaking, if you didn't work. you have no time already. one more month. if you resit, just think of what u have done"
Why is he telling me that for? I don't understand. Not only I think it's unnecessary but it's extremely 'abnormal' too. I didn't see it as any kind of motivation or inspiration. Was he trying to scare me? Was I over-reacting?
I didn't feel any of that at all.
My instance response was ,"I promise you I will not fail"
That strong 7 words simply signifies my feelings all these while. I know I will not fail and I will not fail. Who is aiming to pass SPM anyway? I'm aiming to score the most As i can achieve. Why has Dad started thinking I can't even pass my exams? Has he been judging me solely based on my weakest subjects? Why does he think I'm gonna fail my SPM until I gotta resit my Secondary 5?
I wondered if his eyes did scroll up a little higher only he will be proud of my achievement. I exceled in my language-based subjects. I didn't hear a single thing about it. All i know now is, he thinks i'm gonna fail my SPM.
I've started working. I'm doing the revision sheets my teachers gave. I am only distracted with one thing now, the Editiorial Board. After that, i will fully focus on my Examinations. I hope that time will come soon.
Don't get me wrong. I didn't argue or fight with my father just now. In fact we are still in a very happy term. I just was irritated with what he actually thought.
Do parents expect too much from their children? Sometimes i wondered if they actually see how other children treat their parents. No. I'm not comparing. This is the reality. I was utterly shocked to see some of my friends treating their parents as if they don't mean a single thing to them. The first time I saw it, i was actually feeling thankful for my parents. But do they know it? I certainly hope they do. I know I shouldn't compare like this, but they are doing the same. Telling my siblings and I how their friends children are excelling in their studies and how 'independent' they are and all. It's not like I care. I just wanna make them happy and proud of me. And pls note also that academics is not the only way. It's just the more common and easier way.
I love my parents of course. But this post is written out of disastisfaction and irritation. I wanna let them know i'm actually working for something. But it always looked like all they see is a lazy fat boy sleeping at home all day all night, not caring about a single thing thats happening around him. To be honest, i absolutely hate the sarcarstic jokes they make about me not continuing college and working. During the few family dinners I had with my siblings last time when my brother was still in Msia, they often joke about it when I randomly asked which college should i enroll to or how will i make it in time for college if I go overseas during December. Their reply would be something like ,''Don't need study lah, go play ur computer until u full''(either in hokkien or half english-half hokkien).
I know they may not mean it or may just be playing around. But it happened EVERY time when i talk about my college. Sometimes i just don't talk about it and it just comes out. My siblings often gave a weak smile. I just reacted as if I heard nothing.
Afterall, I don't think it's that funny anyway.
Still here,

But it always looked like all they see is a lazy fat boy sleeping at home all day all night, not caring about a single thing thats happening around him. To be honest, i absolutely hate the sarcarstic jokes they make about me not continuing college and working. During the few family dinners I had with my siblings last time when my brother was still in Msia, they often joke about it when I randomly asked which college should i enroll to or how will i make it in time for college if I go overseas during December. Their reply would be something like ,''Don't need study lah, go play ur computer until u full''(either in hokkien or half english-half hokkien).
I know they may not mean it or may just be playing around. But it happened EVERY time when i talk about my college. Sometimes i just don't talk about it and it just comes out. My siblings often gave a weak smile. I just reacted as if I heard nothing.
Afterall, I don't think it's that funny anyway.
Still here,

Merdeka, KLIA and me
It has been sadly quite a while since I last captivated my loyal readers with my posts. :(
Anyway, laziness overpowered my will and blah. On Tuesday night, went to Rainforest in Pyramid with Richmond, Praveen and Allen to do our own mini countdown. Arrived there and noticed a stage with some guys singing. Ignored cause too many ppl. After a while, everyone arrived and we started drinking again! Haha. I was telling Praveen how I didn't wanna drink so much that day but what the heck. Since i'm already there.. :D
Started off with a bottle of Carlsberg. Went on to JD + coke then went on to Vodka Lime. Ooo. I'm starting to like this life. ;)
(how do u do the devil smiley. grr)
Then the fireworks erupted at 12am and bam boom bam. I duno what else u can say about fireworks. They are all the same. I don't hate it though. In fact, to a certain extent i think it's freaking attractive. Pulls your eye to it, not letting go. Ah. Went home at 1+am and went to yum cha with my family members at a Mamak near my house. Haha. Wasn't really in the mood to go after the drinks but I was already quite sober that time and since it'll be the last yum cha session with my brother before he leaves to Manchester so i just went. Had a Milo Ice and cooled my whole body.
Speaking about my brother, he left to Manchester this morning! His flight was at 10.30am so I went to KLIA with my school uniform(erk!) and sent him off. Will be studying there for 3 years or something. Btw, KLIA's a pretty cool place. Nice first impression for foreigners. :D Anyway, all the best to my brother!
So, SPM's about 2 months away. This is exactly the period when all 'calon calon peperiksaan' will start cramping each night and working their ass off. Damn. I really hope it would apply to me. I was hoping for it to come naturally but i'm still tapping my feet waiting. Argh. But i'm already starting the feel the 'mood'! Woohoo! Finally a hardworking Alex is coming up. I hope.
Realised some schools finished their syllabus already. In fact one finished it 2 months ago. Er hello? I still got 100 miles to go for Biology and Add Maths to my knowledge is also not completed yet. How come they get to finish so early! Grr.
Bah. Can't wait to get this over with. Then at least i'll have another thing off my shoulders. School's pretty ghey these days and I'll be more than happy to get it done with. ;)
Typed all I need to type.
:D:D:D

Triple Blow
Received a Triple Blow today.
3 straight blows right on my face. =(
Sigh, woke up in the morning to catch the world championships but all i noticed was our Malaysians crashed out in the IBF World Badminton Championships Semis. So disappointed to see Lee Chong Wei bowing out to Taufik but guess it wouldn't matter now. Our doubles pairing also lost to an Indo pair in the semis. Didn't expect them to go this far but they should be congratulated as well.
Night came and watched the Malaysian Idol Results Show. Undoubtedly my favourite after Ejay, Xerra got voted out. Damn sad omg. She was among my top 3 based on their performances on Friday. But wtf. Some undeserving guys are still there. Bloody hell. Really want them to go asap. But pls do know that Farah and Nita were both NOT in the bottom 3. The producers tried to be witty but ended up causing much unnecessary stress to the poor girls. Freaking hell. Give us back the original Bottom 3 Format! It matters so much to the voting.
After that, watched Arsenal vs Chelsea Match. Thx to one freaking offside looking lucky goal by Drogba, Arsenal lost 1-0. What is this. They played well and deserved a draw at least. This game is also so vital for Arsenal. And we lost. Nooo. Thumbs-up to Arsenal for being a great sport and not displaying bad discipline unlike 'some' other players.
Sigh. Really sad day for competitions. Other than that, thank God i wasn't competing in anything!
Not pleased,

Debate.And the winners are...
I now know the true meaning of losing something.
The twisted feeling at ur heart. Your heart feels like it's quenching for something. The knock on the head telling you that it's all over. No turning back. You've done it all and yet, you've not won it. The feeling of not knowing what you did wrong..and yet. You lost.
And yea, I lost the Debate Finals. Disappointed I am but it's normal I think. I mean you've worked so hard for something and yet you don't win. I don't know how to describe it. It's best if you feel it yourself.
Well I didn't really 'lose' the debate. Afterall, I got to the finals, beating 3 teams on the way including the team I lost to today. That should be an achievement to be proud of. So i guess i'm not totally upset or anything. Just a little disappointment which is normal.
Was announced Best Speaker for the debate too. :D
My prize was a huge book. Something about Nazis and World War 2.
Quite cool. After all it's the best gift of the day.
The debate had a professional feel to it. With the chairperson,Chrisanne being so formal.. We had a formal feel to it too. I did my best and I guessed it paid off in some way.
Got 2nd place for Public Speaking. That's good too i guess! :D
Considering the prizes i got awarded for today, I guess overall it isn't that bad. In fact it was good. Was expecting trophies but instead got some stationary stuff and the book.
Congrats to 5Science1 for winning the Drama Competition too. I guess we won almost everything that was up for grabs.
Putting the English Week away,
I gotta confess that..
I made a scar on Chrisanne's hand!
Noooo!
I feel really bad for what I did. IT wasn't on purpose of course but still!
I was spinning this thick book with my fingers and suddenly unknowingly, Chrisanne tried to stop it by putting her right hand on to it.
:O!
Bam!
My book fell. That wasn't important. Then I heard an "Ouch!"
A SCAR!!!!
NOOO!!
Mind you the book is not those normal soft plastic covers. IT's the transparent hard binded covers. With really sharp edges.
This happened few days ago.
And the scar is still there. :(
So sorry!
I guess I've said enough.
A special thanks to Chrisanne, Kim, Kah Jin, Teck Eng, Allen, Praveen, the rest of 5Science1 for helping me throughout the English Week.
I wish everyone the best.
Photos next post!

Haze is gone.:(
Somehow, I am not as happy as I thought I would be when the haze cleared up.
In fact, i'm disappointed. I was wishing for longer holidays, more havoc. hehe.
Oh well, since the haze is gone. I guess the school will be back up.
Sigh.
Back to normal schooling life, studies, studies, studies.
Eh. Come to think of it, holidays coming up!
I guess that's something to look forward to.
Sigh

Haze-d
Condition already worsened. Really really bad. In my 17 years of life, I never experienced such....phenomenon. Things are really blurry. Ahh. I will post photos I took very soon.
Malaysia in state of emergency from pollution haze
August 11, 2005
The Jakarta Post - KUALA LUMPUR (Agencies): Malaysia entered a state of emergency Thursday as air pollution levels soared to extremely hazardous levels on the west coast, which is worst-hit by smoke from fires in Indonesia, an official said.
The choking smog has blanketed peninsular Malaysia for more than week, disrupting airports and shipping, panicking citizens and raising fears over public health.
"We are now in a state of emergency," a National Security Council (NSC) official told AFP after the environment department said the air pollution index (API) reached 529 in Port Klang and 531 in the coastal town of Kuala Selangor.
An API above 300 is considered hazardous.
The prime minister's office confirmed that a state of emergency existed, and said the NSC would make a public declaration later in the day.
The NSC official said that although only the two west coast locations had exceeded 500, the measures would extend to the whole of the Klang valley in which the capital Kuala Lumpur sits.
The measures will include closing schools, advising citizens to stay indoors or wear masks outside, and even beginning rain-seeding in an effort to wash away the dust and smoke hanging in the air.
Amid rising health concerns, Malaysian Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi telephoned Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, and offered to dispatch fire fighters to help contain the fires, which have created the increasingly thickening hazesince last week.
"The President responded positively to the offer," an aide to Abdullah told The Associated Press. He did not elaborate. (**)
Can't...breathe....

Hazey Public Speaking
Yes. Hahaha. Hehe. How do I start?
Ok anyway, my school's having its English Week this week. I was never so involved in an English week until this year, the reason mainly being this is my final schooling year and all. There'll be no such thing as this week anymore when I leave school.
So yesterday was the opening, with some quizzes conducted for the lower seconday. Today was Public Speaking.
Oh my. From now on, i'll never ever not prepare if I am to join a Public Speaking competition. Yesterday went offline at 2am just to find a topic. Couldn't print myself so i sent Shyan the file and she helped me print the 5 pages about earthquakes. Little did I know that I would actually waste her paper and ink.
Arrived in school, Shyan's sister passed me the papers(shyan was absent btw). So i read through and tried to pick out points etc. Pls note that at this point I still had NOTHING ready. Went to computer room to help with the design of the 3on3 Basketball Form and Pei Huan saw what I was about to deliver for Public Speaking during Breaktime. She advised me not to talk about something I don't know cause i'll surely forget.
How true she was!
But i wasn't stubborn and I listened to her. She gave me an idea of talking about my years in SSC since this would be my final school year. So i listened and thought it was kinda interesting. Afterall, since there was no articles to refer to, less chances to be stuck. And all this happened just 15 mins before the Senior 4/5 Category.
I gambled and it paid off, i think.
As I was called onto stage to speak on my topic which was entitled '7 years'(how cool is that. 7 years means 7 years of SSC btw), I received loud applauses from ppl from my class especially. That really shook my nerves away. So I started and woah, ppl laughed and cheered and etc. I couldn't believe I could actually do such thing. I never expected to be on a stage and make ppl laugh like how they did...
It felt like a dream, really.
Even halfway, i was already saying to myself,''I can't believe I was actually doing this."
But regardless of anything, I finished it and my spontaneous speech was a success by my standards.
Hehehe. Proud of myself.
And oh yea, to whoever who heard me today. Jus wanna let u guys know that :-
1) I wasn't showing off
2) I mentioned Chrisanne not because of anything else but to show that a person whom i talked about even before the school started can be a good friend. I mean most ppl who i know are my close friends too. Not just chrisanne. So no misunderstandings pls.
3) If i could i would had spoke about other ppl but my mind couldn't think properly on stage.
4) I really wasn't prepared so forgive me if I offended anyone in particular.
That's about it for the Public Speaking part. There's a Drama Competition tomorrow too where a team from my class would be representing us. I was actually the director but somehow i was rudely fired. Grr. But i'm still helping though. I wish them all the best!
The following day would be the Debate Finals. Between my team and Haris team. Whole school will be there for I don't know what reason but one thing's for sure, I wouldn't want to embarass myself on that day.
And...
HAZE ALERT!!!
The condition of the haze has gotten from bad to worse. This is really terrible. When I step out from my school it feels like someone is burning something right beside me. Really burny smell and bad for the health too.
Take care of your health everyone!

Science Stream
It is extremely sad if you are under the 'weak-students' list for every single science subject.
Well there isn't really a list... but u will know if the respective teachers have you under the 'weak' category.
It is not really my fault, isn't it. I like to say i do not have the logical left side brain and in truth, have more passion in the arts field. Not that i'm incredibly talented in drawing or anything but I just prefer it more. And the reason i like it is not simply because it is easier to do.
Few months back, during the FIRST term examination returning of Bio paper.
Bio teacher:- "Wow Alex! 60%. Not bad! Check if I marked correctly"(jokes)
Me :- (deep down) *wtf*
2 Days ago, during one of the 'lectures' of my Physics teacher to the class.
Basically he didn't put it into direct words but he was referring to a few students in the class when he showed his frustration. Like saying so and so are weak and still not doing anything about it and kinda tried to motivate him/her. And yea, I am one of the so and so.
Just today, during Chemistry Class while doing revision
Chemistry Teacher:- "Alex! Go do that question on the board"
Me :- "I duno ler"
Chemistry Teacher:- (looking annoyed) "You don't know and still not trying to do. Not referring to any notes at all. Just looking at the question won't help u solve the question"
Me :- (thinks) *well she got a point but i never bring my notes anyway*
Chemistry Teacher:- "If you say you don't know. Drop la. Drop chemistry since you also don't know"
Me :- *rolls eyes and looks away in denial*
................hm.
All those situations basically says it all doesn't it.
Science stream, those are the 3 main subjects. And i'm not really doing a good job with it.
If you consider Additional Mathematics to be a science subject too, what more i failed that paper 4 out of 5 times already. So i guess it's considered terrible too.
Sigh. I like to put it as I chose the wrong stream but even if I can turn back time I don't think I'll change stream. The more I sigh, the more I respect the ones who scored 16As, 17As for their SPM. Incredible. You guys rock.
In response to Dad's statement on SPM's getting easier because ppl are scoring more and more As, :- It is not getting easier. Ppl are just getting smarter.
;)
Gone were the days when i can be proud of my report card..

If you consider Additional Mathematics to be a science subject too, what more i failed that paper 4 out of 5 times already. So i guess it's considered terrible too.
Sigh. I like to put it as I chose the wrong stream but even if I can turn back time I don't think I'll change stream. The more I sigh, the more I respect the ones who scored 16As, 17As for their SPM. Incredible. You guys rock.
In response to Dad's statement on SPM's getting easier because ppl are scoring more and more As, :- It is not getting easier. Ppl are just getting smarter.
;)
Gone were the days when i can be proud of my report card..

Crap results
2 ppl were voted out of Malaysian Idol 2 first spectaculars hours ago.
And it has to be the best 2.
Trish and Atilia.
I was talking to my brother just yesterday night about MI2.
Me : Eh, i think there are only 2 ppl with unique voices this year in MI2. Trish and Atilia. The rest have just normal good voices.
Bro : Izzit? Ok..
And now..
They are out. gone.
Nothing to look forward to anymore. I'm sorry I didn't vote for them. I'll watch next week but I don't have the same excitement anymore.
There goes our unique MI winner this year.
Saddened and stunned

..gone were the days
*stares blindly at the window and sighs*
Went through Friendster for a little while just now, just to overcome my frequent boredom and to lighten up my meaningless life. So surfed around and came across a few Srikl-ians who I remembered. Vividly, i was having memories and reminiscing about the past..where many years ago I used to be there, spending time with my friends around my little school world.
How much things have changed since then.
The more I browse through the more surprised I get. Friends who I remembered who used to look a certain way in my mind changed dramatically. Not to an extent where they are not recognisable anymore but just changed alot. Ppl who were my close friends back then were of my biggest interest and deep down inside i was thinking if they even remembered me at all. "chia yuan, chia yuan!" they once called out. Hm..
So much so that I kept thinking what will happen if I hadn't make the bold move of leaving Srikl to the school i'm currently at now, SSC. So many things wouldnt have happened and so many things would. I wouldn't know 95% of the people I like now and would remain close to the Srikl-ians who are still there. The thought is scary but I'm not sure which would be the better choice, honestly. I mean i love my current class and all but I could had just been happier if I actually stayed.
Well that's life rite? The fact that we will have to make decisions and not being able to try everything first.
Hello to any Srikl-ians who know me and who are reading this but i doubt there is any. I just want to know that I really do miss some of you guys eventhough I was only about 10 that time but a boy has feelings too. Heh.
What can I do now eventhough if i was to regret anything anyway. I'll be 17 this year and this will be my final schooling year. The best thing I can do now is to appreciate the things I have and not look at any possible wrong move which I may had made.
But I know I wouldn't forget it 100% cause I'm Alex. So screw it.
And the thing that scares me is that, i'm a bad decision maker and my decisions normally go astray.
So i may have just screwed up my life with the decision i made 7 years ago. Lol.
Hmm. Makes me wonder.

Ambuussshhh!!!
What freaking luck! My team once again won the debate!! Go team! eventhough my english teacher was stressing on how close it was over and over again, we still won by 200 points i think. the total was 2400 to 2200 or somewhere near there.
Once again, 'taken away' from the convenience of simply double clicking WoW then spending hours on it and denied access to another world which seems more suitable for me ;). Dad's com once again had been shifted back to the projector room so i'm left with my soundless computer and brother's laptop. Zzz.
Shaved my moustache last night. How horribleeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
:(
Ariff today told me that he does not have my physics file which he urgently needs to be submitted to the ministry. Only mine is missing. Crappy. Gotta do roughly about 5 reports today. The sad thing is, i have no idea about the graph sketching or diagram drawing for every report. Duno what to do now. Need helping hands now. Argh. Worried ****!
Everything's shooting me at once so i hardly got any chance to avoid the 'bullets'. Been shot many times already so erm, i'm kinda used to it. My life's pathetic because if things do go smoothly, nothing bad will happen at all but when things are to go wrong, it all comes tumbling onto me all at once. And i'm already half squashed as i'm typing this.
Alrite.
Tired.
Not sure what i'm going to do after this.
Tuesday.
Tomorrow got tuition.
Sickening.
Stress.
Bwahaha.
Who am I kidding?
No one.
Ciao

kiddo
A day before Praveen's 17th birthday(16th July), went over to Rainforest with Allen, Kelvin, Adrian, Richmond, Chrisanne, Shyan and Prav.
Had a great time drinking. And eating the blueberry cheese cake the girls bought. I only had roughly 2 bottles including a Tequila shot. I felt kinda high though and they said i was drunk again which I was quite sure I wasn't. Anyway, happy belated birthday Prav! Glad he had fun. Went to mamak in ss14 with Allen, Prav and Richmond after that. I must say though, the car ride there was hella fun. Bwahaha.
Blogging with my own computer now. Sad that Dad wants to use his com back and now i have to resort to this sound-less, less good PC which cannot support WoW. Had some problems with IE with dad's com anyway. I wanted to post so long about the birthday outing a day after the event but the IE hanged, 3 times. Zzz. So i'm just typing whatever i remembered.
Thinking bout Prav's birthday makes me wonder about my own upcoming 17th birthday. I've been through alot these 16+ years and finally knows where i stand in the world. Heh. Looking forward for my birthday. Afterall, when it comes, I will only have 2 more subjects left for SPM. Only one month to party after that including my driving lessons. That's extremely sad but gotta live with it.
My mid-term examinations are over, finally. Took longer than it should be but it has ended anyway. Results are back too, unfortunately. Just know that i've passed everything(yipee!) and failed nothing. Got a couple of high scoring subjects(bwahaha i rock) but it's expected anyway. Nothing outstanding but slight improvement in certain areas i guess. This exams shows where i stand.
Talking bout exams, my class is really feeling the pressure over SPM. 3 months more to study. That's a really scary thought thinking that i've hardly done anything yet to revise. My seemed-almost-impossible dream is slowly slipping away further. Honestly speaking, i don't think i'll be disappointed if i don't pass SPM with flying colours. I just want to achieve good results based on my standard.
And don't even bring the 7As for PMR subject up. It's not related at all.
Was taking photos for the SSC Photography sessions last few days. Freaking hot weather and still had to do it, with my camera. The teacher who was in charge took pics with his camera to as a backup. He wanted to use my digital as it is easier to be developed or something like that.
So basically, the whole school knows me now. Took pic of every single person who was present.
It's not over yet though, on Monday gotta take admin photos and photos of teachers.
Hmm.
I got a debate semis coming up. If u remembered, my team won the first round(I blogged it a few posts ago). So this is supposedly the second round or the semis. 3 teams made it to this round so we gotta fight the 2 teams. One team will be knocked out so there will be 2 for the finals. I think it will be based on overall marks over the 2 rounds or something like that.
Gonna have the first round on Monday against Haris team if everything goes to plan. We'll see what happens then.
My name is in the list for Public Speaking too. It's gonna be a day after/before the Debate Finals on English Week. Had no interest at all initially, but thinking as this will be my final year in school, i guess it's no harm trying. Afterall, my history with public speaking competitions is reasonably good. ;)
3am and thinking of what to do besides chatting is quite sad. Days are passing fast and the things i am not looking forward to is coming nearer and nearer. Pressure increases after every breath i take. Every heartbeat seems to be mounting more and more fear in me. Ppl are stressing their brains out, fun seems to be a non-existing word these days.
N do i look like i give a damn?
^^ not very likely eh?

So i duno. I'm average scoring boy again. Average in my class. Like somewhere in the middle.
Wanted to play WoW but damn lag while trying to connect. I think it's blizzard. And streamyx is lagging again anyway.

Yawn.

Now can relax a little before I start working hard for my next exam.
Bwahaha. I'm really gonna work. I'm not kidding. I've learnt my lesson.

The London bombings were a horrible tragedy.
I'm really sorry to hear that. I wish all victims RIP and my deepest condolences to their family members.
Congrats to Lee Chong Wei for showing the world Malaysians should not be written off just yet. Hehe.
Now, time to relax my mind!
I'll work soon! Believe me!
Bwahahaha. Fun mode, activated.

Mid Term Examinations
Day One
Moral - I answered exactly like how I would answer for SPM if that's the paper
EST - 2 Papers - I'll cry if I get anything lower than 2A..
Day Two
BM 2 - Sastera part was gay, as expected. The rest was fine. Typical BM paper.
Eng 1 - Not really 'sastifed' with 2ndEssay. I can't wait to see what i score.
Day Three
Bm 1 - Honestly, I thought I did quite well.
Eng 2 - It's english. I am extremely modest when it comes to english. I duno.
History 1 - I am worried. Everyone found it 'okay' but I thought it was tough.
Day Four
History 2 - If yesterday was tough, today was the impossible. I only started my essay with 30 mins to go. I tembak-ed the best I could..
Day Five
Maths - 2 Papers - Paper 2 was quite difficult. I didn't do some questions. Paper 1 balanced it all though.
Summary of Week One:-
Ok...Difficulty for some papers expected. Some turned out easier than expected more turned out slight more difficult. But it was all fine. Week 2 is coming. Worried like anything. Gonna get owned badly. :(
Day Six, Week Two
Physics - 3 Papers - I expected to suck more. I didn't. whopee!
Day Seven
No papers
Day Eight
Chemistry - 3 Papers - Imagine this. You expect a paper to be tough. Then it comes out 2X tougher. Worst paper of my entire life.
Day Nine
Additional Maths - 2 Papers - Tough. Well what's the surprise? It's add maths, duh. However, i may just pass it this time. We'll see. Hopefully.
Day Ten
No papers
Summary of Week Two:-
No comments.
Day Eleven, Week Three
Biology - 3 Papers - A typical tough Bio paper. Why the F am i saying everything is tough? Cause it is. And i'm stupid and lazy to study. That's y.
Summary of Week Three:-
Happy that it's all over. Screw Bio. Bwahahaha.
Last updated, 11th July, 5:22PM..

Exams are a gay thing
Hey all. Went to a wedding dinner yesterday night.. I thought the ballroom was huge and damn nice..but my parents disagreed and thought they had seen better. -.- They probably know more anyway. They had this little orchestra thing with a flute, piano and a cello i think.. It was not bad. Then they had this friends who could sing and they had The Prayer duet! The girl was quite good.. The guy was not bad. I dressed damn smart. Sad that I didn't take any photo. But i wore a gaya buttoned black long sleeve shirt. Not mine anyway. I'm such a sucker.
Exams are tomorrow, unfortunately. And I have little hours left to complain. However much I would like to state my rebuttles on the importance of exams, no one cares anyway so I will just have to live with that.
Will start studying after this. This exams are like 100X worst than the first exam as the school is gonna use SPM format for this. So the whole exam would be 2 weeks + 1 day long. 2 weeks exactly for me i think. With papers everyday. Sigh. I'm more worried about Week 2 as there would be all the science subjects and stuff.
And oh yea, the SPM timetable is out too. I guess I can only yell my lungs out on the 30th of November. There won't be any papers on my birthday anyway but there's Chemistry the next day. What-sad-life.
Studying too much is unhealthy. ;) But i've been studying far too little. I feel really bad, honestly. But ... argh.
My timetable looks a little like this :-
Day One
Moral
EST - 2 Papers
Day Two
BM 2
Eng 1
Day Three
Bm 1
Eng 2
History 1
Day Four
History 2
Day Five
Maths - 2 Papers
Day Six, Week Two
Physics - 3 Papers
Day Seven
No papers
Day Eight
Chemistry - 3 Papers
Day Nine
Additional Maths - 2 Papers
Day Ten, Week Three
Biology - 3 Papers
So I guess I wouldn't be blogging much for the next 2 weeks or so. The funny thing about this exam is, even if it's over, you wouldn't feel any much better. When this exam is over, SPM's nearer. And we have all sorts of trials coming in very soon after this. So what the heck, I'm just preparing myself to face the pressure. I'm gonna adjust to this life and learn to get used to it. It's all in the mind whether I can actually take it or not.
Ok. I'll go off complaining about my life again while revising my moral.

Tee hee
Today was my debate day.
Hahaha. Freaking. Was damn fun!
Anyway, my team and i were debating on the topic Should Prostitution Be Legalised. We were in the proposing team, ..and no. It wasn't on purpose. So erm, we debated with the team from 5 Arts and hell..it was fun!
Firstly, i'll like to state that i'm not the debating kinda guy. Don't really have interest in it. But it doesn't matter now. Hahaha. So we debated, and debated, took turns to speak etc. Hahaha. The real debate however, started AFTER the debate. I'll explain.
The 'judges', and may i stress 'judges' ..comprised of who else but my frens who think they are qualified(i'm not saying they're not), suddenly wanted to ask us a question after the debate. So he asked and we defended ourselves and in the end caused so much havoc. Haha. I'll have to ask permission from the judges first before I post the conversation. I'm glad i stood up for myself anyways.
It was recorded on camera anyway! Hahaha.
My team was announced winners after that.. with the Best Speaker going to me.
O_O!!!
OMG. I was seriously damn shocked. I'm no showoff. What's there to show off anyway. But really. Hahahaha. Best speaker. :D
My english teacher commented on every speaker and i remembered she said she liked the way i talk but i have to improve on my body language. Don't scratch head too much etc. Hahahaha. I can't stop laughing. Hahahaha.
Hahahahhahaahaha. What a fun day.
On a less brighter note, I got a project to do which 93% of the students handed in already. I still got lots to complete. I'm having a headache again. zzz.
Project(s), here I come!

Biology and Life
Had some really really unhygenic experiment at Bio class today. We were divided into like 4 groups and had to drink different volumes of water. Then we gotta urinate it out and measure how much volume of urine we can get after every 20 mins.
Freaking! O_O
Felt so weird the whole time the Bio class was going on. Oh well, at least i can actually write a report for an experiment now..
So life's pretty hectic as usual. Been seeing life in a very negative aspect this past few days. Hahaha. Been hearing songs too! To try to balance out everything.
Lots of work to do. So little time. No mood actually. Everything seems out of reach or just too difficult to manage. I need a permanent advicer by my side. :(
I heard Carrie's Inside Your Heaven already. Damn nice. Must listen! Other than that, i'm really starting to like the Lifehouse song that has been playing on Hitz.Fm over and over again. You and me? Something like that.
Life's such a burden.
Haha.
Y can't i actually start to enjoy my final school-year?
Such is life i guess. The unfairness. Tsk tsk.
Off now

National Service
What is this big fuss thing going on about NS? Today in tuition, a couple of girls i overheard were saying stuff like how much they hate NS and who got chosen in their class etc... I ignored, thinking it was probably a prank by their friends..
Then I reached home, checked my phone and realised Nimi had asked me if I got chosen for NS. Then immediately after that, Haris sent me a message and said apparently some ppl got chosen already etc.. and thought me how to check through sms.
After that Chrisanne called me and asked me if i got chosen..apparently her 'cousins' got chosen for it.
And just, Allen called me! Asked me if I got chosen. I told him it may be fake news, but he just told me his friend got it.
Har?!!!
Y the list came out and i know nothing about it?
Sent the SMS twice already. How sad. No reply.
Argh.
If this thing is true, pls pray i am not chosen.
Confused

Mr. and Mrs. Smith
Went out for a movie today at boring ol' Summit. The place where you have nothing to do except for movies, San Francisco Steakhouse and probably the amusement centres which includes bowling, pool etc.
Caught this show btw.

Great movie!
I'll probably rate it a 9.2/10 ... The 0.8 point missing is for some really 'delayed' scenes. Haha. But it doesn't really matter anyway. Really really cool movie. Damn damn gaya! :D I recommend this movie to everyone!
Feeling a little tired.
Not enuff sleep. Zzz.
Watch the movie! :)

New old things
Haha. Arsenal's new kit! I like it damn alot. It's supposed to be a tribute kinda thing kit..supposedly they try to make it look like the one the Arsenal team of 1913 wore..first year at Highbury. It's a gaya kit.

Gaya.
Btw, Nadal just won the French Open. Freaking chun player. Won Federer twice already. And only 19.. he's only 2 years older than me!! And already achieved so much. I feel so...weak. Haha.

'Saman' boy
Seriously man.
It's getting scary.
Btw saman is a malay word and i don't really know the exact english word for it to be translated to. Damn used to phrases such as, 'kena saman' or ....erm..kena saman.
So anyway if u dont know what saman is. Ask a malaysian. If you are a malaysian and still dont know what saman is, i suggest you change ur nationality ASAP. :)
Ok btw..i'm saman boy. Really man. Not that i'm the one who always kena saman or gives saman...but somehow.. whosever car i sit in... will kena!!!
SCARY! as in like... duno how long ago...last friday i think. I sat in Allen's car. He was driving me home after we played pool in summit. I was sitting in front btw. His younger sister was behind. Since our sense of directions are equally as bad, we decided to go to my mum's shop since it was nearer to where we were.
Suddenly, traffic light. And it turned red. Allen just drove passed it when it turned red.
Bad move allen.
And yea, police at the next turning immediately stopped him. Wtf so ngam got police there. Haha. And kena lor. I know it's not really my fault. But i felt bad cause... i felt i was partly ...at fault also! Argh.
Then today. Just!
Kelvin's mum was driving me home from school(we had some physics extra class thing).
Kelvin was rushing his mum if i was not mistaken cause we were gonna have the Undang seminar at 2pm.. So his mum was exceeding the speed limit a little i think.
Bad move kelvin's mum.
Police stopped her and bla bla bla kena saman as well.
Omg damn sad. I felt more at fault this time. If only she didnt fetch me home..she would had used a different road.. and wouldn't rush as much.
Nooooooooooooooooooo.
Conclusion is, i'm Saman Boy. So try to avoid me being in ur car if u are driving. :)
Gonna go off to my Undang driving seminar now. Sigh. Hopefully they'll teach me a thing or two to remove my saman boy jinx. ZZz.
Gonna ask about my colorblindness too!
Alrite. Time to go.
Btw, i was just joking about the not driving me thing.
Bai bai

Toilet paper, pls!
Sigh. What a tiring tiring day. Last night or early this morning i should say, i slept at 3am, earliest so far since the start of the holidays. Ok i actually went to bed at 2am but i couldn't sleep because i woke up at 4pm that day. So i tossed and turned and finally got to dreamland an hour later. What a waste of time. Gosh i was struggling to actually fall asleep! Why can't i have the same tired feeling i have everytime when i wake up??! ARgh. Unfairness. Btw, i went to bed that early was because I have some kinda Bm Tuition Exam at 8.30am the next day, which was this morning.
Woke up at 7.30am. Noooo. Tired like shit but i got out of bed anyway.
Arrived just in time for my exam thingy and spent a good 5 hours there doing 2 BM papers.
So after the whole stressful exam thing, I took Kelv's transport to have some lunch first since i didn't eat anything from morning. And oh yea, we wanted to look for the Undang place too.
Freaking. And this has to happen.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, my intestines ached and shouted for pain. Gosh. Not even a single warning! My tummy ached like hell in the car. It's not those normal stomachache where u need to shit badly thing. Or those really painful gastrics. It's a combination of both. *Scary music plays*
Anyway, i decided to tahan a little while more as the feeling may just, u know..go away. So erm, arrived at the cafe.. ordered my food(still holding in the pain), and ate. Finished my food. Pain gotten worse. Then i decided i should just go to the toilet. ASAP. *please note that i'm still very tired due to the lack of sleep the night before*
This was where the real fun started.
Hahaha. Freaking dumb. So i did my thing in the really comfortable toilet for a lil while and as i was getting ready to 'leave', wtf. The worst possible thing happened.
Looked left, no tissue. Looked right, no water.
...............................................................
(silent pause)
...TOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What-the.
OMG.
Hahaha.
I eventually got of the situation though. Clean. Though not very, but still..clean.
So erm, the moral of the story is. Pls check if u have the 'resources' in ur respective toilet before using it. 10Q.
Hahaha. I can't believe i just posted that.
Appreciate it while i have not deleted it yet.
:)
Troubled,
