My Only Hope

The song has been played on my DS many times. But only now that promos have just finished did I realise that, when Switchfoot wrote the song, whether it was their intention or not, it sounds exactly like the prayer I was praying everyday before, during and still going to pray it after promos.

Loose Flaps

How often do we say things we wish we hadn't? How much do we, once releasing words from our mouth, or whatever communication medium we encounter in this age of technology, wish we could take those words back? The thing is, we can, but it doesn't mean it lessens the impact. It's like saying: you can stab someone with a sword. For sure, you can remove it. You can sew the wound back. You have painkillers, you have medicine, you have hospitals for these reasons, after all. But the scar doesn't get removed. Ok, fine, the Bio students might say the layers of cells with the scar eventually fade. But it doesn't happen for all scars. And neither does it remove the memory of pain the stab caused.


"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt"? Bullshit. They hurt more.


Long ago, I screwed up someone's life with a loose mouth that spouted things that shall remain secret. Suffice to say I screwed up his life. I thought I had learnt that lesson. I thought I was able to seal my mouth, to think before I spoke.


But it seems, I remain an immature brat who can't keep his mouth shut. No wonder I'm failing Lit. I understand people's minds, all right, but only after damage is done. And that's the least of my worries. What if this continues on?


I'm so sorry for fingers that typed so fast my brain couldn't process what exactly I was saying. I'm so, so sorry.

A Moral Tale - Anorexic People read this!

In the beginning God covered the earth with broccoli, cauliflower and spinach, with green, yellow and red vegetables of all kinds so Man and Woman would live long and healthy lives.


Then using God's bountiful gifts, Satan created Dairy Ice Cream and Magnums. And Satan said, 'You want hot fudge with that? And Man said, 'Yes!' And Woman said, 'I'll have one too with chocolate chips'. And lo they gained 10 kilos.


And God created the healthy yoghurt that woman might keep the figure that man found so fair.


And Satan brought forth white flour from the wheat and sugar from the cane and combined them. And Woman went from size 12 to size 14.


So God said, 'Try my fresh green salad'. And Satan presented Blue Cheese dressing and garlic croutons on the side. And Man and Woman unfastened their belts following the repast.


God then said 'I have sent you healthy vegetables and olive oil in which to cook them'.
And Satan brought forth deep fried coconut king prawns, butter-dipped lobster chunks and deep fried battered chicken, so big it needed its own platter, and Man's cholesterol went through the roof.


Then God brought forth the potato; naturally low in fat and brimming with potassium and good nutrition.


Then Satan peeled off the healthy skin and sliced the starchy centre into chips and deep-fried them in animal fats adding copious quantities of salt. And Man put on more kilos. God then brought forth running shoes so that his Children might lose those extra kilos.


And Satan came forth with a cable TV with remote control so Man would not have to toil changing the channels.


And Man and Woman laughed and cried before the flickering light and started wearing stretch jogging suits.


Then God gave lean beef so that Man might consume fewer calories and still satisfy his appetite.


And Satan created McDonalds and the $2 double cheeseburger. Then Satan said 'You want fries with that?' and Man replied, 'Yes, and super size 'em'. And Satan said, 'It is good.' And Man and Woman went into cardiac arrest.


God sighed ......... and created quadruple by-pass surgery.


And then .............. Satan chuckled and created private health insurance.


THE FINAL WORD ON NUTRITION


After an exhaustive review of the research literature, here's the final word on nutrition and health.:


1. Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
2. Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
3. Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
4. Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
5. Germans drink beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
6. The French eat foie-gras, full fat cheese and drink red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than us


CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you. So... Speak Bahasa Indo!!!

Here endeth the Lesson.

I Really Like Chain Blog Posts

YES!!! I FOUND CHAIN BLOG POSTS THAT ARE SUPER RANDOM!!!


CBP #1 - I'm Making This Survey Because I Would Want To Take It. RandomRandomRandom. (I swear, that's the name of the CBP)


Spell your name with no consonants: AE. Heyyyyyy, that's very interesting! I have so few vowels!


What do you want to do with your life? Become a forensic scientist. Or a writer. Or both.


Do you smile with teeth, or without? With. Which creates a problem since my teeth are less than perfect. Hence the braces.


If you had to dye your hair an UNnatural color, what color would it be? WHITE, MAN! It'll be damn cool...


Where are your baby pictures kept? Ask Mum. Most probably that nook of the house she scares me away from by telling me about giant spiders there. I know now it's fake, but my hyperarachnophobia just keeps on asking, "What if???" Grr.


Have you ever attended a wedding? Whose? A lot. Mostly my parents' friends, but recently (as in within 1.5 years) my own friends' too. Yes, I have older friends... O_o


What news channel do you watch the most, if any? Prime Time Morning on Channel 5!!! It's hilarious how they try so hard to make everything so politically correct and still can look so happy doing it.


Do you think, if you were someone else, you would like you? Yes. (ego ego ego...) But honestly, given my drive to try make everyone like me, my other self would most probably like me.


Why are you friends with your friends? Because they rock. D'uh.


The worst feeling is when... I'm ignored.


Can you cuss around your parents without getting in trouble? What's 'cuss'?

Do you ever actually participate in the ads on the sides of the page? No. I know too well it's a virus or some link to some disgusting porn site.


Can you crack your toes? Oh yeah. But never on purpose.


Opinion on the FreeCreditReport.com commercials: Please don't feed us these lies. We know 'free credit' actually has an invisible 'not' in front of the 'free'. Thanks to the cynical econs scholars I am friends with.


How many songs are on your iPod/mp3? Mp3: 790. DS: 63.


What sort of things are on the walls in your house? Hostel: my class photos and my drama photos, along with a map of Shibuya. House: Nothing. Cheap paint peels if tape or blu-tack is stuck there.

Can you see your front door from where you are sitting? If I turn 180 degrees. The hostel room door is remarkably close to anything else in the room.


Would you want dragons/elves/wizards/fairies to exist? I know they do. I have a dragon friend whose birthday is next month, an elf friend in NJC, a lot of my friends can use magic, and I know a few fairies. Sounds like my life is eternally dreaming, doesn't it? But it's true, man...


How would it be to be PacMan? Damn cool. Just think, eternal eating. Forever. *drools* Maybe I can actually gain weight...


Are Ugly Dolls cute or just ugly? Cute.


How is your luck, on a scale of 1 to 10? Zero. Divine intervention, depending on what God deems fit to grant.

How many cars have you owned? 78 toy ones, 31 virtual ones and 1/3021 of a real one. The accelerator and brake along with the remote control box.


Type of music you dislike most? Music that reveals that the artist would not even have released the song if not for sound-altering technology that actually makes them sound competent.


Are you registered to vote? Nope. The PAP would win anyway without my help...


Do you have cable? The hostel does. Me myself? No.


What kind of computer do you use? Compaq laptop Presario V3000. WHICH IS DEAD, THANK YOU FOR REMINDING ME!

What cell phone provider do you have? M1. Matthew's One. Lol.


Have you ever smoked peanut shells? What kind of idiot'd do that?


Have you ever been in a beauty pageant? My looks are sadly meant only for NRICs and not beauty pageants.

SPONGEBOB OR JIMMY NEUTRON? SpongeBob! Jimmy only depresses us with his mind, but dear old Spongebob reminds us that there's still hope.


Did you have long hair as a young kid? Long hair is in the eye of the beholder. For the Mum, no hair is too short for a boy. Actually, I suspect she's still trying to get me to go bald to save money.


What message is on your voicemail machine? *Beep* I'm sorry, but Matthew is unable to come to the phone right now, but if you take the trouble to listen to this non-existent message recorded mysteriously on a non-existent voicemail machine, you just might hear a beep after the non-existent message supplied by your own imagination and you can leave a message for Matthew. He won't get it though. He's too busy looking for a voicemail machine. If you're still waiting for the beep, you idiot. *BEEP*


Where would you like to go right now? Dreamland.


Whats the name of your pet? Dee Ess.


What kind of back pack do you have, and what's in it? An Adidas, which has nothing in it, because I have deigned to use a smaller Aoking sling-bag in light of my laptop's death.


What do you think about most? Variations of wild stories where our world has magic or some people have certain powers and I am one of them. May seem childish, but it trains the imagination. And at least I'm smart enough to know they'll not happen. Or will they??? (X Files X Files X Files...)

Mine. D'uh. Can people ever wear another butt besides their own?

#77 Where are you now?
Hostel


#78 What colour did you use to dye hair?
Transparent. So no colour change!!! WOOHOO!!


#79 Why are you doing this test?
I do all chain blog posts. Gives me an oppurtunity to test my wit. And sanity.


#80 What do you do when you’re moody?
What's this word 'moody'?


#81 At which age you wish to get marry?
See how far God takes me as a bachelor.


#82 Who is more important to you?
You know, when asking this kind of question, people normally offer a choice so we could actually ANSWER...


#83 Do you think you have enough confidence?
Yup. POSITIVITY POWER!!!


#84 Who is the person you trust the most?
God. My parents. A few good friends.


#85 Do you believe in seeing a rainbow after a rain?

#89 What do you love?
What definition do you want, exactly?


#90 Do you really think its Global Warming now?
Yup, especially with all the narcissistic people all around the planet who self-proclaim themselves hot. It's not that they really are, but this narcissism reveals a great amount of hot air in their heads. The planet would have boiled a long time ago if it weren't for the ice caps. And even those are melting.

Emo-ness. The completely unconstructive antithesis to happiness.

If you haven't realised that by now, you're not really reading through all the questions now, are you?

God! My parents are a close second. Friends a close third? That's probably something to ask them themselves.

God. My parents. Friends. Deja vu, much?


#96 What’ll you bring when you fight?
Fight? Can't say I'm familiar with the concept.


#97 What have you regretted doing in your whole life?
An unbelievably great amount of things. And this regret has probably shaped most of my present personality.


#98 How would you feel if everyone no longer cares for you?
Suicidal. And totally dependent on God for the love that all humans need, and the strength to continue loving those who don't love me anymore.


#99 What if your stead two-timed you?
If I had one. At the moment, I can only guess. Emo? Try to talk it out?


#100 What do you want now?
To publish this and sleep. Tomorrow is another long day.


#101 Did you notice question #17 was missing?
D'uh. I'm a scholar, man...

Famous People Speak during the time of our Promos

Mother Theresa - What is Life?


Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
Life is beauty, admire it.
Life is bliss, taste it.


Life is a dream, realise it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.


Life is a game, play it.
Life is a promise, fulfil it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.


Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is a tragedy, confront it.


Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.


Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
Life is life, fight for it.


To add on, I say, life is not just Promos, so don't kill yourself stressing out on it. (Although it IS important...)



Bill Gates - Tension


The Moment you are in Tension

You will lose your Attention

Then you are in total Confusion

And you will feel Irritation

Then you will spoil personal Relation

Ultimately, you won't get Co - Operation

Then you will make things full of Complication

Then your blood pressure may raise Caution

And you may have to take Medication

Instead, try to understand the Situation

And try to think of a Solution

Many problems will be solved by Discussion

This will work out better for your Profession

Don't think it's my free Suggestion

It's only for your Prevention

If you understand my Intention

You will never come again to Tension


To add on, I say, do not Mention your Tension as it will be an Intervention towards your Preparation for Promos and your PW oral Presentation. Then, if this happens, the ministry of Education will revoke the paper of Administration that declares you are a scholar and not the partaker of illegal Immigration to this fine Nation.


Lastly, God himself offers us a sign that He is willing to help us through...




He smiles on us!!! Yes, He does!!! I don't know about you, but I'm encouraged.

Reach for the Stars..............with a little help...

The journey to achieve excellence or even to improve oneself is not a solitary one. It can be, but it should not be. The journey is made much easier with supportive friends by your side. This song captures the whole essence of it perfectly:

Chain Mail

Recently, I have been bombarded by chain mail. Those which go like "SEND THIS TO AT LEAST 15 PEOPLE OR SUFFER BAD RELATIONSHIPS IN YOUR LIFE!!!" or "If you send this to only 0-1 people, YOUR LIFE WILL BE SHORT AND TERRIBLE!!!"


I don't believe in the punishments chain mails describe. But hey, they want me to send, I'll send. The particularly interesting ones. Besides, in a way, publishing on-blog is like sending to the whole world anyway, so in the event the chain mail rewards and punishments are true, I'm safe.

Um....

My blog. D'uh.
