Holidays!

03Jun09

Honestly, I can’t wait for the holidays! I want to meet my love, my girlfriends and basically anybody I’m still in contact with! I believe everybody can’t wait for the holidays, everybody deserves a break from school, don’t they? Even the nerds and the geeks. I’m sure they have their own activities lined up during holidays, maybe visiting the science center or something. Hahaha! Okay, I’m sorry, that was unnecessary. One thing I love about the school holidays is that I get to sleep till what time I want, and I don’t have to wake up early! Awesome. I’ve got so much plans for the holidays, and one of them is definitely shopping. In addition, the Great Singapore Sales is here! I’m so excited, even though school holidays is still 9 days away.. But I believe, 9 days shall just fly past in a blink of an eye!

However, there are times when I really hate the holidays. Why? Well, holidays just suck when you have nothing plan for you. All you do is just stay at home, and waste your day away. That is what I hate most about holidays. I mean, there are days when I would want to stay home and just catch up on my TV drama series(not those channel 8 ones please), and probably read a book. But, it is rare for me to have that feeling. I’m just someone who loves the outdoors and fun. Let’s not talk about climbing bukit timah hill or camping in some weird forest when I mention “outdoors”. I just can’t stand being in a place filled with mosquitoes. However, a picnic would sound good. When there’s food, who bothers about mosquitoes right?

My holidays shall be fun fun fun and more fun!
Let’s not talk about the assignments I have to complete during the two weeks. :)


Suicide

28May09

I just heard this terrible news from my brother. A chinese teacher from my secondary school committed suicide. I don’t know when but it happened recently. I just feel uneasy after I heard about it. She used to teach one of my friends in school. She was always bullied by the students in class, and I heard she always cried during lessons. I guess it must be the stress that the school is giving her, or should I say the students.

When I heard about it, I questioned myself, what was going through her mind at that time. Why did she choose to commit suicide? If it was really stress from the students, why couldn’t she quit? Was she afraid that she couldn’t find another job? Why is suicide even an option for people? I don’t believe by ending your life, you’ll end all these problems. I feel that people who have thoughts of suicide should seek help from people. Not just anybody, but the closest people to them – their family. I’m sure they’ll do their best to help them. By ending your own life, you’ll be missing out on so many wonderful things. Why not just forget all those unhappiness, and move on with life happily. I still don’t see why there is a need to commit suicide.

Well, I know sometimes, certain things are hard to forget. But hey, life isn’t always fair. Just try to think positive. You know the song that goes “Always look on the bright side of life~”


I get distracted really easily, especially by the World Wide Web. I’ve been hooked up on the internet since Primary 6. I played internet games, like habbo, maplestory, Left4Dead and whatever you can find on the net. I know, the games I played are childish, but forgive me, I was a curious 13 year old back then.

Now that there’s facebook, oh dear. The applications are just so addictive.

One Example: Bejeweled Blitz.
It’s so addictive, I always have this urge to beat my own highscore. Then, I’ll end up playing the game for an hour or so. I’ll only stop once I get really tired of trying to beat my own score, or until I actually beat my high score. This is bad. Well, after I stop playing this, I’ll move on to Retaurant City. Honestly, this game is a “no life” game. All you do is stare at the screen, and if you need ingredients, you just go “hunting” for them. I have no idea why I’m hooked on to this game, but I’m just loving it.

When I didn’t have Facebook, I really didn’t understand why every one around me was telling to join and create a Facebook account. They told me it was fun, you can poke people and write on other people’s “wall”. I just thought Facebook was just another version of Friendster.

Well, I guess I finally understand why. Hmm.

Ever since I created a Facebook account, I can spend hours on Facebook, seriously. You know it’s like Boys and Dota or Counterstrke. I just wish that I would get over this Facebook craze soon enough. :/


Why I ask that question you say? Well, I realised I have a lot of friends birthdays in May! I’ve been wishing friends “Happy Birthday” for the past few days. Just today, I headed out to a friend’s birthday dinner. In a few days time, I would have 3 more birthdays coming up. Will it like give you fortune or luck to give birth in the month of may? Like what they say the babies born in the Year of Dragon would give you luck. Yeah right, all these superstitions are ridiculous. To me that is, no offense to anybody out there. :) My cousin who was born in Year of Dragon ain’t bringing my uncle and auntie any luck all right. Hah. I have a friend who’s so superstitious, it really makes me so frustrated at times. She tells me about people getting dragged into the sea at the beach at night by ghosts. Ghosts? I believe there’s souls, but ghosts? All those horror movies, incredible tales, supernatural stuff, whatever they are, are they even true? The stories they tell and you know the usual thing that scares the shit out of people. Sometimes I really wonder if these “things” really do exist.

Okay, I really don’t know how I linked to the topic of supernatural stuff. Sometimes I just start ranting and talking so much to myself, these thoughts just come out of no where. Then I’ll start questioning myself, and I’ll try finding answers to it. Seriously, am I weird? Or is this natural? Shit, I’m doing it again. I think I better stop.

Till the next post, bye!


Earlier today while I was on my way to school, I almost stepped on a frog that got squashed by a vehicle. The sight of it totally disgust me. It was really flat with its legs spread out. I believe it was hopping past the road before it got ran over by the vehicle. I really hate Frogs because I think they look horrible and it scares me when they hop. I remembered I screamed really loud when I saw a frog. Oh wait, was it a frog or toad? Now I’m confused. Which also reminds me, I can’t seem to remember the differences between frogs and toads. Someone tell me? However, I kind of pity the frog/toad, even though I really don’t like them. It died just like that, oh the poor innocent frog/toad. I mean, it didn’t do anything wrong to deserve to die like this, right? They have their good points too. For example, they help to eat those houseflies which fly around my food the whole day. It helps get rid of those stupid flies. But still, this one good point won’t make me like them, not to say love them. No way!

Talking about things I dislike, lizards are pests that I really really hate! I’m so afraid of them, because they give me the creeps and my house has a whole lot of them. There’s just this one lizard that always hides under the fridge, which always scares me when it crawls out suddenly. I also had a very bad experience with these pests. Back when I was in Secondary school, I was seated at the corner of the class. We were having lessons, when suddenly this lizard fell on my table out of no where. I believe it came from the ceiling though. I got such a shock that I screamed, and hit the table. This caused more trouble, because the lizard crawled and fell on my leg! Oh no you won’t want a lizard on your leg. It felt slimy and rubbery? That made me panicked and I started jumping around so that the lizard would get off my leg. So yes, that is how the story of me hating lizards came about. Why do they even exist anyway? Pfft.


A whole new environment, new friends, new lecturers. The life in Poly is so different compared to Secondary school. I guess it takes time to adapt to a place you’re unfamiliar with. The campus is so huge, I was almost lost on the first day of school. Unlike in secondary school, you look for the lecturers, you move from one class to another. Things that we learn are no longer subjects like English, Maths, Science, Combine Humanities and Mother Tongue. Instead, we apply these knowledge into the new things we’re about to learn in Poly. What we used to call “Subjects” in Secondary school are now known as “Modules”. School no longer starts at 7.20, no more morning assembly and singing of the national anthem. We used to have to wear uniform to, but now we have to crack our brains to think of what to wear to school. Honestly, I’m starting to miss my school uniform.

First week was not as bad as I thought it would turn out to be. I’m glad I made new friends, all friendly and outspoken people. All of them have their own personalities, different from friends I used to have in secondary school. Although I still miss my secondary school friends,  the new friends I’ve made are great companions I see myself with for the next three years in Ngee Ann.

I believe I’ll adapt to this new environment pretty soon. Secondary school to Poly is sure a big step one has to take.
