Miserable day

I hate being sick. The worst part is that the flu bug or virus or whatever it is refuses to go away. It refuses to leave me alone! I have been coughing my lungs out for the past 2 weeks. I finished my antibiotics course, all the other medicines the doctor gave and even emptied a packet of panadol in the span of 14 days and when I went to college today I still felt like crap. I felt like as if I'll drop dead any second. The only good thing in an otherwise sucky day was Mr. Spencer. He never fails to make me laugh. Apparently he noticed my "condition" and promised to be nice to me for the day. LOL! Funny guy. If there's one thing I'll miss about YJ it's definitely him. Because he's a true educationalist (as Ms Aminah said) and a commedian. My Dad is also very impressed with him, since he met him last year during PTD. He says all Lit teachers should be a little eccentric like Mr. Spencer. Heh.

Then there was GP. Thank goodness we went to Comp Lab to do our Student's General Certificate. It's the school's way of being extremely lame. Well I wrote down my 3 most significant competitions to the school. Guitar. CVD. Competitions. Blah. I wished for a moment that instead of Guitar I was able to write Debate. All those debate trainings, late night grindings flashed in my mind but I decided to keep them in the past. Debate and YJ. Well they never happened. I'll deny it. I'll probably take up debate in university again.

Then had Econs lecture. It was...not interesting for some reason. Yeah I remember because the LT was fucking cold (I was sitting right under the air-con) and Mr. Syn spoke too loudly into the microphone and my ears hurt. Thankfully one brave soul mentioned this to him and he got relatively softer. Oh but his mispronunciations were funny. Poor guys.

History was urgh. By then I was a walking zombie. SBQ sucks. I swear I hate that. I'd rather write 400000000000 essays than 1 SBQ. It's just so analytical and yeah essays require in depth analysis but SBQ is just so SUCKY. Man that pretty much sums up my miserable day. Oh and it was raining. One of those annoying days when all you want to do is cuddle under your blanket and sleep rather than to travel from Pasir Ris to Yishun. Grrrr.

Sometimes I really wish I had chosen Meridian instead of deciding to stay on at YJ. Damn. But I guess I wouldn't have met my wonderful classmates and Mr. Spencer otherwise. Heh. I love my class. Well most of them. The ones I speak to regularly. They're really nice people. Had an awesome time bitching about YJ with Christine during our common break. Last year I didn't speak to her much but this year I found out she's a really cool person to talk to. :D

Oh and I almost forgot. I watched Spidey yesterday. It was ok except for the ending. Can't give away the spoiler but seriously a certain someone shouldn't have died. What happened to Happily Everafter? Hmph! Ciao.

Homework beckons. Maths. Yay. *sarcasm*

Idol Gives Back

Was watching American Idol : Idols Give Back on Star World. I like the concept of making it a Charity event instead of the usual Idol Perform Idol Eliminated shows. It was touching to hear Ellen Degenres announce in the middle of the show that so far from all the incoming calls they raised US$30 million.

I felt touched by the videos they showed where Ryan and Simon went to visit families in Africa, all of them have at least one member who is HIV positive. Then another video showed how many African children die from Malaria every day. It was really touching and it made me all mellow and emotional. I really hope these people can find their salvation at the hands of the international community. I mean we focus so much on combatting terrorism and corruption but we fail to see that AIDS, MALARIA, HUNGER and POVERTY are so much worse. They're more dangerous and they consume more lives everyday than all the terrorist organizations put together. Maybe I am exaggerating but you get the idea right?

Anyway this particular performance by Josh Groban with African kids really touched my heart. I have always loved the song You Raise Me Up but this was just...this left me speechless.

Dark Throne

Damn Dark Throne is addictive. Just what I needed to shatter my concentration in preparation for the A levels.

This post serves as a testament to my dear friend's stupidity :)

Some people are just born stupid. And this certain person (of course I don't need to be implicit, most of them know who it is) is a testament to just how stupid a person can be. Lol. Its funny sometimes how these idiots can come up with 101 reasons to hate you. Kind of explains their stupidity. I mean we all learn Econs and we all know TIME is our biggest scarcity and you'd think these people would find a better way to utilize their time than trying to find reasons to hate people. Tsk tsk. Anyway, our sentiments are mutual. Actually I disgrace myself by saying that because I cannot just believe I wasted 1 second of my precious life to think about that person then another second to hate that person and another 1 more second to actually type it out here. That's 3 seconds worth of my life gone. Oh my God. *shrieking laughter* Hint hint.

I am bored. Waiting for Ms Aminah's lesson to start. Should be fantastic (yes I am NOT being sarcastic). I mean she is funny and on Saturday we found out she has a sentimental side to her. Stop laughing! And there's this Daryl (De La Crap according to Salem's blog) who's playing some shitass game called Dark Throne and constantly accusing Ryan. Grow up Daryl. Haha.
