So many things to do, and so not enough time man!

I know what are the downsides of failing maths. Slower brain at comprehending fancy 3 dimensional forms.

Though creating a 3D cube is not precision engineering, but boy does it feel like it!

Look at my cubes and you will know. Even if you slant the penknife slightly, the edges won't be as sharp. (Meaning 90 degrees) And then there's the problem of cutting exact pieces of foam. Foam is tricky to work with though easy to cut. /: It's yielding far too easily (for me) to the penknife. My cubes look horrendous.

Thank goodness it's only for massing models (whatever they are).

I'm blogging at 1.30am after working close to 3 hours on 6 cubes that measures 5cm by 5cm. Screw it. Gotta work faster and better.

Yes I'm being very biased to the new TV.

I'm sentimental in a way like that. But seriously, I think plasma TVs are not real TVs. They fail at being TVs. See! There I go again. I was being serious though.

I think I owe an apology to Addison + QL cos I've been ignoring them recently. My rare moments of being online is most of the time - Brother hogging laptop for Maplestory. Yes and I can't be bothered. It happened because well, I wasn't using it much, why not.

Addi is bored to death and I'm sorry for not entertaining him. I'm busy with the usual stuff. /:




Dad thought TV was spoiled and bought a new one. What else. Plasma.

Screw Plasma, I hate Plasma TVs. They make images look fake and pixellated. Like some bad photoshop. Unless its HD-TV, I can't possibly argue.

Screw it. DAD WON'T FIX THE OLD ONE. Looks horrendous, the new TV. And the old one is not even spoiled. SEE DAD, I WAS RIGHT.

Frigging TV cables, you deserved to be stabbed with penknives and burnt in hot oil before incinerating any remains with fresh lava for making Dad think old TV is spoiled. I don't care. I'm not happy with this purchase. I'm going on a strike not to watch TV. (Probably can't hold out long.)

I'm abit upset now that I've gotten only a C. Maybe that's what you get for not losing enough sleep over it?

Sorta half not wanting to believe that I got a C only. And feeling uber screwed up. Yes, uber screwed up.

Makes me want to thank Dad for saying I can't make the scholarship, cos I really can't make the scholarship. When did I ever make something? No idea.

Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if the slackers got better scores than me. Or maybe it doesn't matter at all. So the question to myself is,



What went wrong?

P/S: I think the new TV's audio is lousier than a 20 year old TV.

I wonder how screwed will I be if I ever happen to return to school and find 3 of few people I click with run away to NAFA/ La Salle.

Friggin' screwed I think. /:

3 of my best ones too. Hell.

I've decided to come online after __ days of being MIA. This was not due to me missing the time being online, but instead was the layer of dust on my laptop that prompted me to do so instead. Now my laptop ain't shiny anymore ):

Okay. After checking around I realised that Vin's blog is as lazy as mine. And Addison's one is.... ... Slightly more updated. Haha. Makes a difference of 1 more post.

Anyways haven't been really productive this holiday. Let's say work + sleep and that holiday in Johor got the better of me. I got my haircut. The boring me decided to cut it the same way I've been cutting it this year. Mm... There isn't really anything new/suitable for me to change into anyways.

I'm tired of being tired. /: I just want to sleep most of my time. Like now.

Addi ever complained (again) that I'm not updating my blog. I did okays. Anyway here's another one aboout my training today.

I went to my dad to Golden Mile to get my gloves. I got the smallest one. 8oz, white ones. Arh. I've got to take great care of it. If not I'm gonna be damn sad if it gets dirty. $85 ): Hella expensive. I've gotta work 3 days for that.

My dad really got to know what Muay Thai is now. -.- Boxing! Yes, I've always been reluctant to tell him Muay Thai is Thai kick-boxing. But hey at least he knows now. o.o

AND FISH. He said he'd gladly sponsor me a couple of thousands to get a nice bow for Archery. What the hell... ):

Muay Thai's not so bad. At least I can use it for self-defense. (Minus the always kena whack in gym part ya? No pain no gain!)

Anyways, after skipping 2 lessons on push-kick and elbow blocks, I think I still don't know how to elbow block. Lesson's gaining momentum now. Trainings are harder with more tedious cardio workouts.

There's this grading thingy at the end of every 10 lessons. o.o Apparently we have to pass it before going on for harder stuff.

Hell I hate exams.

I went to school instead of going to work today. I had to pass the bursary documents to Mdm June by today for submission.



Anyways, Addi accompanied me to SP. Thanks for that. Else I'd be damn bored sitting alone at FC5, waiting for QL's dismissal. And thanks for trying to pass me Sims3. It turned out to be the wrong version. Mac OS, not Windows. /:



But still, had a great day with QL and Addi. The 3 of us were playing Sims. Reminded me of the days during Primary6, when the whole bunch of us went to Lyria's house to play Sims everyday after school when there's supplementary lessons.

My current house that I designed sucked. I know very well. And I know what I need to do after I got the correct version of Sims3 from Addison.

I logged in to the Friends For Sale application for the first time in my entire life and I was astounded by what I saw. It was shit. -.-

I'm supposed to do lots of things this week. Like alot. But somehow it ended up not done and stuff like that. Next week, I guess. Haha. Not procrastination again. I'm giving myself excuses! Hell. At least I did manage to finish finding all of the documents for NgeeAnn Kongsi.

No wait, except one. The proof of admission. Uhh... I think I have to photocopy my Student Admission Card in which I look like... not me. I'll be going to school on next Tuesday morning. The last day for the bursary application. I don't think I will make Scholarship, because I failed E-Maths. Screw it. I would definitely try for Scholarship IF I passed my E-Maths. I've got the same score as another girl. She may be trying for Scholarship. I mean 4K versus 2.5K! 4K pwns totally. Screw Maths! Hell I don't even need it to get inside Architecture!

):

I am deeply saddened by the passing of my Maths score. (Get it?)

Pfft. I still look like myself 4 years ago. So why can't I use my old passport photo? Gahhs.

So I sat against white walls at various points in my house like an idiot (LUCKY I'M IN MY OWN HOME) and took many many pictures of myself because I am a lousy camwhore and I cannot angle nicely. There's always space on the right. Like alot of space. Or the shadows! Thus me moving house everytime I see shadows or uneven lighting in my photos.

Damn you APPLES (the online passport application) for being so clever. ): Like seriously. You don't have to be so clever you know. But if you really are that clever...

We celebrated Dad's birthday on 06/06. It wasn't a really big affair this year. It's only us, minus the cake. I've got no time to get the cake, and it's bloody inconspicuous to put it in the fridge! The fridge is a place where everyone in my household visit at least twice a day.

Instead, this year we went to eat out. At Causeway Point. What a boring place now. -.- It used to be so fun to me say, 4 years ago.

I'm quite missing the old company now. I do sure hope that we will get to gather again sometime. Say, basically all the people whom I mugged for the O Levels with. I really have to credit them for my score. They are the ones who helped me through. Like seriously, if you want to finish the entire 2 year syllabus for combined science in a week plus? You'd need great friends like them. From F9 to B3 in a week. KUDOS TO THEM MAN.

And and and SY, she's like, the person who helped me get my first ever distinction for Humanities at the prelims and the O Levels! She was really patient with me. Haha. C6 to A2. Love her! I haven't seen her in a while. I don't know how to get her out now. ): And people like YP, HY, Ju, JH, XQ... Generally those who really really are there for me when I needed some company the most.

Not forgetting though, Vin, Addi, WC and the lot. We were quite the boisterous lot in class are we not? I really miss the class and Mr Goh. Heard he's off colour ever since we graduated. Did he miss us until he grew sick or we drove him to madness? ): I realise that, Addi and WC are quite the sentimental persons. But such traits are rare now, I hope they can keep it. It's rather valuable.

And and yes, the Japanese trip people. The TXKs! Haha. Names are nothing but a useless label of the friendships we forged in that short time. The experiences we share are only between us and no one else. Miss the lot of guys too. Everyone has grown up a real lot. I wonder if they'll care to hang around and reminisce the past sometime now. There may be some rifts caused in school, but hey, forgive and forget no? Lets try to have a great get- together sometime. ;D

Tomorrow's like the last day of school. I don't know whether to be happy or not. Seriously.

See, to me, work and school is the same thing. I don't mind work, I don't mind school. They're equally good and equally bad.

But you see. It makes me very exhausted when I have to juggle the both of them. I feel like letting something slip sometimes. I can't. I realised that should I let either one slip, I would be in trouble.

Yes of course. When you view it long term, letting work slip should not be a problem. I know it's not really big. I just have to cut down on spendings and let the car go in due course. I love that car so. There are reasons behind it other than my passion with cars.

So when I see my Dad, working the whole week, slogging the exact same hours as me, and maybe even more. I don't see why he can do it and why I can't. His work is, afterall, tougher. It's all menial labour. Nobody wants to take up this job. He's hiring. He can't find anyone.

This is one dirty job. Who will? And who will have the capabilities? If you want to hire an idiot you might as well do it yourself. Save time. If he messes up the stuff, you have to throw the goods away and re-do it. But still paying him. Or someone who knows how to sell, knows Malay, Chinese, Hokkien & dialects and English moderately well enough. If he keeps asking you, why not just do it yourself?

If I don't help my own Dad, who will?

This is the reason why I persevere. However, this is giving me some problems. My social life. Why my social life is mostly scoring 0s. I can attribute it to that.

Why even bother to take time and socialise when you don't even have time to sleep. I think only a couple of people know this.

I can't be bothered to explain sometimes. And so what if they knew? Knowing doesn't equate to understanding. And it would take a long time to make someone understand. The effort could be saved and channelled into rest.

You know how I survive this? If my Dad can do it, why can't I?

It's not like I don't want to post my thinking post. It's just that it expanded so much until it ran away. Yes, literally.

I had Critique today. The mess was astounding when I reached there in the morning. Powerpoint slides weren't ready. Pictures weren't done yet. Portfolio, documentation not collated. Presentation not rehearsed. I don't think chill pills would work because everyone was anxious.

In all the mayhem, things turned out well. I suppose our fine team did the job! The slides was done expertly, the model is superb. I must say, the model really stands out from the rest! When it was all over we were shaking hands, hugging each other and celebrating what a success it was. The next time, I'm going to make it even better.

Anyway, I went to NP today! For what? To find Addison! Haha. Now we're even! I went home with him and all along the way we crapped.

For an hour plus.

Good crapability I must say.

And oh yes, I must not tell any embarassing things to Addison. Apparently he will remember it VERY WELL. As in exceptionally well with vivid details. Uh hmm. So yes. Here's a warning to all.

It's been sometime I've been publishing here anything related to brain food or something that needs me to think quite some bit.

So yes, I'm going to try to write one of those today. Like now.

Oh my goodness. I cannot think now.
