Musings don't know number how many

Am I up to it? Guess I'll find out tomorrow.

Anyway, it's been a great relief for me to know that Chinese New Year is just round the corner. It's an even greater relief that swim pe will be over come end of this week. However, it's become an even greater worry for me since the school, more specifically the discipline committee or d-comm for short has officially announced its intention to conduct a random attire check in the near future. My my sounds like they're bidding for the IR or something. But anyway, the prospect of an attire check will make life much more exciting now. Imagine constantly having to flatten your hair, tuck in your shirts, wear the correct shoes, etc. Sounds like great fun to me. That's about all that's happening in school now. Oh yes, the Valentine's Day flower delivery service! Before I forget. It seems that the junior colleges in Singapore have all come together to celebrate Valentine's Day. How nice. And they're going to go about it by having some inter jc flower delivery service. Imagine how exciting that would be! We could spam flowers and have it delivered to every Tom, Dick and Harry. Alas, the flowers aren't free and come at a fee of 4 bucks if I'm not wrong. Suckers. 4 bucks just to spam flowers? Hell I might as well chop a tree and deliver it myself. But flowers aside, what I found interesting was that not all the JCs were participating in this hare brained scheme. Raffles, HCI and if I'm not wrong SA (seems like SA is smart too eh?) have declined to be a part of this cheat the students of their money conspiracy. But then Valentine's Day has always been a cheat your money day ever since money came about. I digress. So, what happens if I want to deliver flowers to those JCs? Then how? Do I have to use Fedex? Then it would be Fedex, 3 rest of JCs 0. We live to deliver. Ahh, I think I am going mad. Because I for one would never ever pay to deliver flowers. Much less pay a bunch of councilors. Never. Ok enough talking here. It's time for me to go and sleep. And find out what happens tomorrow. Sucks.

Bored

It's amazing how I would rather rot away all evening in front of the computer doing stupid things like this instead of picking up my notes and studying something, well in this case everything since I haven't started on anything - The vices of the media which is coincidentally the GP topic for the half term. However this is not an addiction per se. Rather it just reflects how repulsive school work must be. And imo doing benzenes and SHM all night isn't my idea of fun. And SHM isn't some variant of FHM for those lucky bastards not taking Physics. From what I've gathered during the lectures, SHM is yet another nonsensical Physics theory used to explain something which doesn't really need explaining and which 90% of the world’s population would not care for just like what Physics has been for the whole of last year. I digress. Anyway, I do not know what I'm doing here but I shall just continue typing until I tire and then it's time to sleep after a fruitful evening’s work.

So what's new? Well I really do not know. So I shall just have to go on typing till I tire. And that wouldn't be too hard would it. Just typing and typing and typing. Very soon I'd get bored of typing then I would publish this post then I would go to bed. And I think that would be soon. So in the mean time I shall just have to continue typing. And as I'm typing this it's becoming more and more like my "nothing" entry which I wrote during compulsory journal writing in lower secondary. And I bet it must have been the most famous journal entry ever written given that it was circulated all over the staffroom with the page folded and the word "Best!" scrawled on the top of the page in red obviously by whoever must have been my English teacher then. On top of that, I still had to re do that journal entry because writing about nothing was plain unacceptable. But why not? Given that my entry about nothing was far more substantial than some of classmate's entries about something. See, nothing is just like another Physics concept. It cannot be defined properly in words and must be represented in the form of squiggly lines and dx/dy. It really is very strange that I spend half my JC life looking at squiggly lines and writing grammatically wrong statements. And so here I go on typing and typing. By now you must be bored to shit and probably think I'm crazy. Well I think so too. The bored part I mean. But I must continue typing because I'm not tired yet and if I stop typing I'll have nothing to do. And when that happens I might just glance over at the stack of files atop my bag and feel guilty bout all the stress that I'll be putting my teachers through tomorrow. But it is not my fault is it not? If the teachers did not give me work which I would not do and which they would get pissed at me for then knowing the consequence of giving me the work why do they still bother giving me the work knowing full well the consequence of doing so and the inevitability of it happening. Ah the eccentricities of life just like Physics and Economics and Maths and Chemistry. Well that's all my subjects that I've listed here right. Great. Seems I don't really like school much. Surprise surprise. Ok I am getting tired of typing guess it's time to call it a day and go to sleep. Bye bye.

2nd post of '07 school year

One week of school has past and well that's one week closer to graduating? Yea. Anyway this has been a most wet start to the year but that don't seem to dampen the mood for anyone given that orientations all around ended well, the J1s didn't die and the As are still here. Damn the As and damn the J1s too. You see where I am studying the J1s are a weird bunch imo. Unlike previous batches of J1s, this batch has some sort of perverse mind. They enjoy going to the library! But of course since all they do is go there get on a sofa and sleep thereby denying me my rest. Seriously, these J1s do actually study and do whatever work they have or maybe finishing leftover A Maths papers or something. Lol. In fact I think they're studying more than me! Ah well, the bright eyed innocence of J1s. They think work is fun and having mass rallies is the greatest thing that happened in their lives. Not. Anyway, I'll just leave them to their stuff and see what they make out of it come JAE. Just make sure that whatever you do, your first 3 choices for JCs better be near your house.
Recently, more precisely round a week or so ago, the news of a blog - wearemean.blogspot.com, hit the headlines. So I went to check it out. But sadly they took down the stuff. Then I tried googling it for the archives. But those smarties offed the google function. Damn. But judging from what I've read, the blog owners some keyla and lesli or something like that certainly have no qualms flaming people online. But they're probably ball less or something cos now they've gone all quiet and are even removing comments left by readers. So, I'd encourage everyone to go to their space, once again wearemean.blogspot.com and drop a comment or two. Hopefully they wouldn't delete yours. Oh and do go to 0xymoronic.blogspot.com too. He's the guy who complained bout the wearemean people to the ST. I don't know why you should go to his blog but just go there and drop a comment too. Lol. I seem to be in a drop a comment mood. So now off I go to go drop some comments aka spam. Heh now you know what I'm getting at.

1st post of the school year 2007

It's been 3 days of school and I must say that things have changed quite a bit. Firstly, my class lost 3 members but gained 1 back. Not sure if it's good, bad or otherwise but shan't comment here anyway. And we've changed teachers. Apparently, all the classes I'm in are below college average. Lol. So the school decided to get us other teachers. And the implications? That our previous teachers weren't up to scratch? Or my classes are all plain screwed up. Whatever it is new teachers makes the New Year more exciting. And not forgetting the PAE people. How can I forget them? I was just like them a year ago; but in a different JC. Ahaahahaha. Well well what's there to say? Enjoy your time here and get out at JAE? Depends on them I guess but as someone once said, ac is an acquired taste. True. I haven't acquired the taste (don't think I ever will) but at least it doesn't leave a bitter feeling behind now.

1st '07 Post

Well well what can I say? Happy New Year! At long last I am finally going to be able to stop studying in 11 months time. And I really don't know if I'll ever pick up a textbook after that. But that remains to be seen. Right now, I believe it's highly appropriate for me to make my New Year resolutions like every other self righteous human being will be doing. And contrary to last year's resolution of not making another set this year, what the hell I'm just going to have to break one more resolution. So here's my New Year resolutions after yet another year of muddling around not making any headway but not exactly lost either.
New Year Resolutions
1. I will finish my final year in ac peacefully and try to graduate on a happy note.
2. I will try not to miss my lectures except under exceptional conditions.
- The lecture venue is too far away.
- The lecture is right after lunch.
- Going for the lecture just doesn’t feel right.
3. I will start working on my TYS and find those missing tutorials.
Well I'll leave it at 3 for now. When I can think of more then I'll add it. For now, just enjoy your hols and the first week of school which I find is generally even more unproductive than the hols.
