You really know how pathetic life is when you stare at the computer screen and you see the internet connection moving at 1kb/s. It doesn’t merely end there, of course; but in fact, drops to an even more impressive 0.7kb/s. But then, all good things must come to an end; thus the reason behind my current speed of 0.5 kb/s.
That’s the story of my lovely wireless connection at Hwa Chong. Ask me again why I don’t go on MSN. And I might just consider committing serious bodily harm. (those kickboxing lessons have to come in use some time..)
I’m not going to talk about EOY now, but I’ll probably moon over it after the exams are done. Yup, I’m pathetic that way.
Oh yeah, someone thought I was fourteen years old today. I guess I grew somewhat, considering that my shooting juniors thought I was in Sec 1 a few months ago. I’m like, super wth; since I’m actually a hermit in comparison with half the class. And, oh; apparently it’s good to look young.
It’s just weird; because apparently all those who prefer to wear jeans are in lower secondary. I’m seriously going to wear something mature to church next time. There I was thinking that formal+++ stuff was not suitable for the House of God.
Boo.
I was supposedly mixed blood as well.... I must emphasize once again that I’m 100% Chinese. My grandfather rowed a lousy boat from China! Well, at least across part of the straits... I think. Okay, fine. He rowed a boat from somewhere to somewhere. Boats are now supposedly ubiquitous. =) (random)
I have no living relative of whom are not Chinese, and yet I’m the only one in my family who gets labelled as mixed. Well, so does my brother; but he’s an exception. Wait... I’m not sure about my sister either...
I read Oofuri for the past few days. And Soul Eater. Of which I completely blame Zhiling’s influence on. And lots of fanfiction. So. Erm. No studying.
But I am stressing out on the fact that Lit and Bio are on the same day. That and the fact that I still can’t tell apart P1 and P2.
11 DAYS 15 HOURS 35 MINUTES and er... something seconds to go till the end of EOY.
Found this!: (LOL, an entry from last year!)
Anyway, again, before I mention my random number of the day - I would also like to write about what happened with Sports Day and my interest in entering the Cheerleading squad. First of all, I had already made up my mind to join and was so pysched up that I couldn't even sleep. Of course, I also was quite excited because it was Jing Li's birthday the next day and I was wondering what his reaction was when he received the RM10 top up card. (It was, according to him - his first birthday present ever. He even tried to pay me for it!!! And as gratefulness was concerned, he's still the very old same. I had also placed a bet that Sherilyn would get him a birthday present, and being the perfect idiot he was, ((trying to stop himself from being disappointed from expecting too much)) he bet against me. It's his loss anyway, I just get a free drink)
However, when I asked Yik See about the cheerleading squad, expecting her to tell me that someone else with higher qualifications (of sorts) had already replaced me - I was told that it was too late for the team to accept anyone new as they had already trained all the steps for about a month, and I wasn't going to learn everything in two days. After all, I'm no genius with microscopic memory and the athlethic skills to back me up.
And Green House got third place for Sports day, losing to puffy, ballerina skirted Yellow House cheerleaders and the Red squad. Losing to the Red cheerleaders was all right and well as they were rather impressive but Yellow House positively sucked. And when I mean 'positively sucked' I mean that they were so horrible that words cannot describe the hideousness of what they did. Although I will gallantly try my best.
They had the layered, cat hair-style that looked as if their hair had once contained some sort of explosives. They also wore ill-fitting white t-shirts with gaudy letterings on the front and back proudly proclaiming that they were members of the Yellow House cheerleading team. The worst part of all was the fact that they wore puffy, ballerina yellow 'skirts' (and I use that term loosely) and white pantyhose.
My first sight of them was when I saw one of the members running down the stairs - and you can imagine how the skirt must have looked like at the moment: one giant pompom. And their pompoms were as small as their fists. The worst part was the fact that I was 'rewarded' the glimpse of the cheerleaders' undergarments. And they were NOT wearing shorts underneath, but plain ol' panties. And they were girls approximately 20 pounds heavier than me. At least - they looked as such. It was definitely no pleasant sight.
Along with the ugly uniform was the horrendous cheer. After all, there is only so many times you can repeat the "Hey Mickey, you're so fine" cheer before it gets positively annoying. I was tempted to set fire to their skirts and watch. Besides that, they had really... weird... moves. I just couldn't understand nor make out the words they were saying due to the strong Chinese accent. Nor did any of my friends...
I guess they probably won second place because the teachers had to register how much effort they put in for the entire thing. I mean, custom designed shirts and RM100 skirts along with 'unique' pompoms... Or maybe it was just the panty shots...
What I did for Sports Day... Well, that's another entry for another time.
