Made in China

So one fine day, Cliff walked into my room. "Hey come to the play, I'm so funny in it".
Yo, whatver.
As if mock exams which count for scholarship applications aren't more important.

Then mock was over. But Chinese oral is next up. Reminds me of that "previously on the OC" line and the never ending episodes of it. As if i'll waste a good free wednesday to write up an oral.

So after procrastinating and sleeping thru most of wednesday, being the sad bored emo that i am (i joined Steph's emo club two days ago), hey the play!
Then Waldo announces "these ppl are to collect their ticket for the wednesday play... [name] [name] [name], everyone except joel"
Ow dam, time to recall those problem solving skills I've dumped somewhere in the corner since i dropped HL maths.

But adam joanne me really wanted to go.
Too bad we don't have tickets.

Oh wait, I'll rephrase that.

Too bad we don't have tickets to pay for.

"Hey teoh my friend, can I borrow your ticket for a sec?"
Thanks. So since I was out of bytes by 2pm, I spent 5 minutes before dinner typing up the following.
Hey i don't think the school ever filed law suits against chinese kids typing up words in textboxes. Now to look for green paper. Oh wait, Dai-D is more important. I hate 6-6-6 triples.

Back to tickets. Oh, is that a Chemistry syllabus booklet I see?
Not anymore.
That's what i call economics. Scarcity is the problem of limited resources and unlimited wants from Chinese people who don't want to pay.
Can you tell the difference? I can't. Neither can the teacher on duty. (Btw, the one on the bottom is a Genuine-Grammar-Fake)

As I tell Ian, I wasn't born Chinese for nothing.

Mission Oral Commentary completed

So english orals was today.
"It's so stressful!" they all say.
"And my teacher is so gay"
"I am having such a bad day"

I see boom and i see chandra
Both pacing through their King Lear
Boom worrying that he will swear
"F*ck, Sh*t, I'm so dead la"

I see adam in his little room
Orals are coming, so dark and gloom
Think of failure, think of boom
Sh*t this oral is our doom

As I walked out with no aim
Walked past houngers and his computer game
Success or failure, they're all the same
Life is just one big f*cking game

I picked up pencil and my pen
Switched off that annoying fan
Picked up the books with my ice cold hands
And walked off to Hirschfield once again

Julian was standing in the corridor
Tension just built up more and more
I read through passages i've never seen before
Ooo look it's a unseen passage galore

Accompanied into my little seat
She held out two passages and i peeked
"I've never seen that PL passage" and i freaked
I stuck with Lear, I bet it's rigged

"How does my royal lord? How fares your majesty?"
Damn I knew I should've studied
My contextualisation is so rusty
Lucky my analysis wasn't that crappy

I wasn't feeling all that well
Walking into that room was like hell
The smile on his face is so bad for morale
"You are so f*cked" his face tells

For 11 minutes i went on with my commentary
This oral thing seems quite easy
"Let me ask you a question about imagery"
F*ck did he even listen to me?

And so, the commentary is over
No more Paradise, no more Lear
I walked out of the room to take a breather
And on me jumped a Liana

"I'm so happy it's finally done"
Happier than getting a 6 seconds stun
Now that's it's over, it's time to get some fun
After the rain, there's always sun =)



Yeah just felt like spending my time blogging, despite prac exams starting tommorow. Am so happy, it's like a burden offloaded. With that medical cert, i could've postponed it, but I'm glad i got it over and done with.

Thanks Boom and Chandra for their awesome advice on how to pick which extracts. I would've been well screwed if I pick that random PL extract. Writing in that 20min was the fastest i've done in my life.

Extract E... reconciliation scene? Crap... haven't seen it since skipping Dr White's class last year and later copying Aiman's notes. Lucky Aiman takes good notes.

Thanks to the new couple of GGS for deciding to skip music prac, to "see Joel's face when he walks out". I mean, come on, get a life. I look so expressionless anyday anyway.

Next up on my IB calender: Chinese orals. Ah crap. I knew i forgot something.

i <3 exeat

For the first time, i kept to my promise. I actually did work before having fun. That consisted of me being the last person to leave school on friday.

Note to self: when trying to persuade someone, never tell them the bad conditions first. Being honest does not get ur indemnity form signed.



Mr Waldron loves emphasizing the importance of having a balanced life. Relative to study that is. But since the hockey season is over, i will not do anymore sport ever. So... it's time to read chick flicks.

In Angus and Robertson, when you are standing in the Children's section, don't ask loudly where the Children's section is. Failure to do so may result in you looking like an absolute idiot.

When buying cloths with friends, when you find a piece of clothing that interests you, do pick it up ASAP. Or you can slowly pick it up, having a friend walk over and telling you that it looks pretty nice. Next thing you'll see the new clothing on your friend.

When you rent an apartment, at least get to know what tram stop you alight at. After doing so, tell your guests. Or else innocent people like Adam would have to travel with idiots not knowing anything.

Oh, and don't rent an apartment at stop 13, room number 4. You get the worst of both worlds. Of coz, having the room furthest away from the washing/drying machines was a good idea.

Never trust a ditz who never been to timbertop to handle directions. Coz you'll end up next to a cementery.

Having a glimpse at the secret of why women take so long in the bathroom was amusing.

"I don't plan on drinking or smoking tonight. I'm going to keep myself sane the whole night. Hey joel can you carry my $60?" doesn't really show determination.

"How much have I got left?"
"$10"
"Save the last $10 for taxi"
... 10 min later
"How much have I got left?"
"$10"
"Yay! Can I have it?"
doesnt really show determination either.

Making choices are easy. Keeping with them is hard.
Quote Rui.

Living with two drunks who drinks more is quite an experience. I realised until you block off one side of the house, it's impossible to put them to bed. Note: bed. Not sofa. Not floor. Not toilet.

"I hate red wine" Gulp gulp. "Pour me another glass"

Listening two ditz talking is fun. Which is why i'm dying to see two long-lost sister ditz chat.



Never trust anyone until they're awake. Definition of awake is when they are walking and able to say good morning. Replying half awake multiple times does not accumulate to full awake.

What's a blog without at least one Stephy chronicle. Steph eats lunch. Steph finish. Steph gets up to leave. "Oh wait, you need to pay the bill" That must be the first time she's eating in a restaurant.
Studying after the first 24 hours of exeat does not work. Tested. It's better to walk Vic market. Better yet, count how many people enter Club X within 10 seconds. I got 2.

It's hard not to laugh at Goths when they're standing right next to you on a train, telling each other "I can taste bad breath. ARgh I hate vegemite"

"What an Adam building!"

Ian's new findings: In the state library there's 42 inch screens for PS2 and games.
My findings: There's also an 420 inch screen playing a movie. There's also a 42 inch TV in perry now.

And some people still manage to use the wrong towel, despite clear instuctions. Ew.


Mind blank.

Oh wait. Liana is vain, Arum is maid and Adam is... tall.
Apart from Adam, no one remembered how to pose in sticker photos.

When you don't have energy to study, you'll have enough energy to window shop.



Weekend ended in a high note.

But back at school, Timmy and Liana finally goes out. Hurray for the new couple of GGS.

And Steph's Markyourmark t-shirt made it into the Top 10.

Congrats ^_^
