#108: 明日を迎えに行こう
These few days must have been the happiest days of my term. Sure I have some pretty evil deadlines breathing down my necks, and the threat of CLEP (bullshit) test is pretty horrible, but somehow I can’t stop feeling happy. But I can’t help procrastinating, so this may not be so good a thing.
Hopefully study session tomorrow can jolt me back to a studying mood.
I’m such a boring person with a <100 words update after 6 happy days.
#107: To those of you who received honors, awards and distinctions, I say well done. And to the C students, I say you too may one day be president of the United States.
By the looks of it, I can never be the president of United States.
Mathematics 46/60 A1
Saddening, even though I did fairly well in my class. The paper wasn’t that hard actually. Binomial theorem did not check formula sheet, I’m damn smart, oh yes.
Language Arts TBU
Not released yet. Dying for the marks to come back! If I get a B I shall cry.
Higher Chinese 149/200 A2
Chinese composition screwed itself up so much. Teachers sabotaged the supposedly easiest questions and most of the people who wrote that question went off point, myself included. Technically I need 1 more mark to A1 (My A2 curse comes back and haunt me at the worst possible times), but it might round up so all’s good.
Biology 32/45 A2
The shame of my term. A2, seriously! Screwed up Section B (11/20), especially at one of the questions. I want to kill myself now. And of course I didn’t go and study where the fricken glands are. I assumed that they’re just that blob over there.
Chemistry 38/45 A1
Happiness! But I wasn’t highest in class I think, so it kind of spoiled my happy mood. Lost my streak…
Chinese Literature 37/50 A2
Bah. I hate this subject. And half a mark to A1, just my luck. I memorized for two days straight and all I got was this lousy grade. Second lowest in my class.
Integrated Humanities 17/20 A1
One subject I am truly happy when I received my marks! Pleasantly surprised since we had a *cough* saga during our paper that left half more than half the class pissed to their core and most of us did not have enough time to finish the paper, me included. Getting back my feel from lower secondary hmm.
#106: HONEY 君はなんでも お見通し〜
Because this was one of the best Vocaloid group song I’ve heard, even if it was modified from an existing song:
And because I’ve been so annoyed I can’t get the lyrics anywhere off the internet, and also that I have nothing better to do, I wrote down all the lyrics from the video and put it here so anyone can get it off the net:
HONEY NANAMEUE ALL☆STARS Edition

#105: Et tu, Brute?
I realised I haven’t posted in my blog for 21039822834409 years, so here is a quick update.
Block Test 2 in about 3 more weeks. Somehow I’m not exactly in the mood and I find myself coming back home everyday and sitting in front of the computer for a good two hours at least to do my art. In a new program called Manga Studio that has >7000 materials of awesome including screentones and panel cuts. Color feature sucks, but if it didn’t the file size might just crash this old computer.
Biology is getting so much more boring than before in class now. Currently learning all the molecular biology stuff, and found myself nearly dozing off on several occasions. Chemistry is getting better, just finished a topic in 15 minutes the other day. Hmm revision is totally zilch. Nada. Nothing. But I don’t feel the panic. I think its coming soon…
Toga party on Wednesday (except with a decent twist at the end)! We’re putting up a skit. I’m going to be Random Assasinator #1 and stab Caesar with a butter knife. But before that, I shall be a witness to Caesar and…wife’s wedding. I don’t even know which wife.
Okay that’s it.
My life is so boring.
#104: Oh, why can’t we break away from all this, just you and I, and lodge with my fleas in the hills? I mean, flee to my lodge in the hills.
I’m at Xiamen right now and the internet here is really anal. I can’t access Facebook, Twitter, Youtube or anything, so my only option is to update my blog, which is something I should be doing more often.
Living at a villa-like house right now! Air-conditioned 24/7 and huge plasma TV oh man. And free internet and printing and an auto-shuffling mahjong table, with awesome sea-view to boot. After a short nap later, we’ll all go out to the beach and take some nice shots to add to my dA.
Ugh need to take a nap.
#103: We pretend to work because they pretend to pay us.
About a week into the holidays and I’m proud to say that I’m pretty much bored out of my mind. Can’t focus on my homework, even the most interesting one of them (Julius Caesar readings). And I don’t have the full list of homework.
This holiday isn’t even fun. Yet, anyway, but still. No one plans to go out and have fun with me because I’m such a drab, and even if they do, I wouldn’t go out because I’m such a lazy bum.
Get off your arse and go down to the gym, woman. The only exercises you’ve had lately are strolls to the fridge, computer, or bed.
Current Read: Serpens Armarum by Evandar
Synopsis: Same old manipulative!Dumbledore, awesome, independent, possibly super!Harry. Slash undertones, but its probably me looking into it too much. Harry turns into a humanoid basilisk because of Second Year and realises Dumbledore is an old fart. DoM and DMLE gets nosy. Chaos ensues.
Awesomeness: Harry is a basilisk. And Linael is sexy.
Hey lookies. My recommended read is as long as the rest of my post. I must be the most interesting person alive.
#102: Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.
Sabbaticals was quite awesome actually, despite not getting my first choice in both AM and PM classes. In AM class we ‘gambled’. In PM class we wrote ‘fanfiction’. Two awesome things to do.
AM class talked about Mathematics (Probability) behind gambling games like Roulette and Blackjack. Massive gambling – no, practical session – takes place after theory lessons. Needless to say, I’ll definitely pick these two games when I gamble in the future, right after the brainless slots, of course. Now to hone my card counting skills…
PM class taught us basic elements of Gothic Literature and Psychological Thrillers, and made us write segments of stories and the like. Then we learnt on tropes and wrote clichéd paragraphs. Of course I went ahead and wrote fangirly segments of Mister Black (Who wouldn’t? ♥), which the teacher liked. On the last two days, we took photos and made a storyboard, and then wrote a story to compliment it. It ended up as a horror story with random bits of humor injected here and there, called “VIC DIES”. Don’t ask.
Got back my report book on the last day of school. As usual, crapped up my Language Arts and Higher Chinese with A2. Rest were A1, besides IH which was a measly B4, due to one particularly horrid assignment of 8/20. Total MSG was same as last year overall, 1.53. Score percentage high due to epic high Mathematics score (92!)
Current Read: Altered Destinies by DobbyElfLord
Synopsis: Harry kills Voldemort, but the entire Wizarding World is kind of chaotic. With Aberforth’s help, he travels about 60 years into the past, first to kill young!Tom Riddle, but later on to make sure he doesn’t turn evil or anything, because he’s too damn cute.
Awesomeness: Unspeakable!Harry is just mad awesome.
I just realised that I have such an uneventful life that I run out of things to say in my blog even though I update very infrequently.
#101: What the world really needs is more love and less paper work.
Block tests are over, and thankfully I have gotten above average marks! Besides the occasional slips of A2s in HCL (what the hell) and IH, it has been more than satisfactory. Considering that I didn’t mug excessively for this block tests, I count this as a victory over the system. Of course this cannot be compared with 2009 EOY, since I had a year of texts to commit to memory. I dread 2010 EOY, but what the heck.
Even though block tests are over, I am not slacking as much as I rightfully deserve. Truckloads of homework are due next week, and fat load of good the no-homework day did. I don’t think any of these supposed homework-cutting policies are going to do any kind of good for all of us, and I would rather they don’t do anything.
I think reading Harry Potter fanfiction has made me much more jaded to life and ‘good’ and ‘bad’ recently. This world is not the Wizarding World, I am unfortunately a muggle through and through and have no political power to participate in any scuffle. But the least I can do is to acknowledge the truth, and not be blinded by the Light (aka idealists) and the Dark (aka self-righteous bastards…wait, that applies to the Light too. Damn.) I would gladly give an example where this applies but I would have to be politically correct, just because.
Maybe I’m thinking too much. But there are copious amounts of manipulative!Dumbledore fanfictions and I’ve read so many I’m starting to get suspiscious of the canon!Dumbledore and his dubious intentions. And at this point of time I don’t know which Dumbledore is brainwashing me.
Current read: Reign of Power by Fayr Warning
A bit excessive independent!Harry, but nevertheless an insightful and interesting read. I wonder if I should write a ficlet-length review for it like for “Harry Potter and the Afterlife Inc.”.
A pity I didn’t keep extensive notes and do additional research on, if I remember correctly, “The World Without Me”, a fanfiction that kept me up to 0130 on 7th May (Biology block test day), and still do well in said test.
…Wait. Wait wait wait. Woman, stop writing horribly lengthy fanfiction reviews. Nobody reads them anyway. Stop doodling princess-ey Vocaloid drawings and wasting time CG-ing them to perfection, it is nowhere as awesome as the Daily Deviations, and will never be. Stop attempting to level-up, your MMORPG curse will come and break it apart, just you wait.
Just be sensible and write your stupid NYAA reflections and do your stupid homework so we can all be happy and politically correct.
#100: Fall seven times, stand up eight.
Exam count:
Language Arts
Chinese Literature
Integrated Humanities
Chinese Paper 1/2
Chemistry
Integrated Mathematics
Biology
WTF to the above.
I hate for my 100th post to be on such a depressing topic such as block tests, but I’ve been tanking so much, so where better to vent it out than in my blog? The one thing that will never complain when I bitch for hours on end. I miss how I used to write long, irrelavant posts on my blog, and that was only last year. Now they are all short and make me sound like a cynic.
#99: Nice, but not nice nice.
If the last strands of sanity breaks and rebounds to join the other side, I think I’m going pop. Should I withdraw now? Or shall I continue to dwaddle in this community I call my closest buddies and hope for a change? I don’t think any one option would actually happen. Then what will I become of?
