Okay I'm BACK FROM AUSTRALIA!
Here are some fun facts i discovered:
1) The price of 2 cans of coke = A bottle of beer (WTH?)
2) Australian girls are generally pretty
3) Australian guys are either hunks or punks
4) Australian Standard of living is damn high.
5) Kangaroos are nice to feed
6) Sheep feel like sofa
7) Emus are idiotic as they peck a kangaroo as i was feeding it
8) In Australia, you will not have constipation as they have LOTS of salad
9) Their rides are seriously scary. Btw, those i took were considered mild rides.
10) The Sun there rises at 4am
11) Punks get intoxicated by 8pm.
12) Shops closes at 5pm. Gosh!
Thats it for now... i'm kinda lazy to type out everything BUT! Guys, i bought souvenirs for you all.. I'm not sure if i can cover everyone, but will try though..

Prom night's over. Let's see.. everyone's back to their emo-self. Whether drowning themselves in work or rotting at home, everyone's feeling miserable inside. Freedom is given. When we are given freedom, we take it for granted and don't want too much freedom. An epitome of grass is always greener on the other side. That's why we humans can't ever decide what's best for ourselves. If we ever do, we'll land up not appreciating things. Without struggles, how sweet can victory taste? Stating the obvious? Very much true, but we always overlook that.
Back on the lighter side, i can't work. December i got quite a bit of stuff to do. Taking care of business of the china boy and also the overseas trips and camps, quite a pain. At least it keeps me active and prevents my brain from getting sapped and lazy.
Lessons learnt in this year:
---> Resentment is gone. But the incident of dedrick thingy still remains as a scar.
----> Studying hard does pay off. But ultimately, the results will determine it.
----> Never believe anyone except your friends. E.g Certain people who claimed to want to play everyday after O levels and lands up working.
----> Anything can screw up, but you yourself must stay strong.
----> We need divine intervention. Seriously.
----> Good intentions gets rejected without much consideration
----> Just when you thought everything was right, it ends up the opposite is right.
----> There are just some lessons that people don't learn even when u stress it to them.
----> Nothing lasts forever. Memories do.
The above applies to everything i have commented on this year. It's funny even when i read it.
It looks like a graduated student can only look back and laugh at his own mistakes and marvel at his own achievements. I have no regrets in this school. It's not because our school is perfect ( In fact its far from it) but it's because of what i am today.

As i was listening to Alexandra Burke's song about bad boys, it got me thinking. Love defies logic in this aspect. Sounds absolutely dumb and retarded but its a cruel fact.
Quoted from the song," Even though i know they are not good for me, it's the risk i take for chemistry."
Woah... so sad man. As i think properly, do girls really like guys who have no principles in this case? I would classify that as principles in this case. I understand flings are flings but.. if it is so, why do girls end up crying and cursing the guy when they know they are like that? I admit i hate to see such a sight.
Personally, when i look at myself in the mirror. I know my flaws but i decided to abandon all those bad boy image 2 years ago. Whatever the "advantages" of being a bad boy, i wouldn't want to be one. I'd rather be myself. It's kinda pathetic to be reduced to abandoning your principles, so i'd stay myself. It's true that love comes and go, but i guess the right one will appreciate my mentality. I hope. haha.
Speaking of which, suddenly i was wondering. How on earth am i single for 2 years? (Don't look so shocked) Well, i admit that i've been through a lot of problems with love and sorts. From getting a taste of my medicine to many other excuses to leave me single, i can't help but feel like i'm getting punished. In a way, it's fair i guess. Atone for past mistakes for the future seems pretty reasonable. I received so many setbacks from all those but well, i can't do anything. Start afresh?
Honestly, is it that easy for people to just accept your past? I know it sounds self-righteous or whatsoever but i can accept most of peoples' past. I also realised all my failed chances were all with reference to my past. Kinda sad though but that is something i cannot deny. I can't argue. I can't fight. But seriously, even if i raise the question of starting afresh, will it even be possible? Not being pessimistic though but how many can?
I can only fake a smile and carry on. The only reason why my world has not collapsed is because i myself have not given up on myself. With the addition of some support from others, it encourages. Obviously my first relationship was the best but well, good things always end fast. Unfortunately, everything crumbled down just because a pure misunderstanding. It carries on. "One day history will judge us"- It is, isn't it?
I guess at the end of the day, all these struggles make us cherish things better. I always wonder when this streak would end, but now i thought of it. Quality is indeed better than quantity. Not always two is better than one also. Such a simple thing like this, requires such a heavy lesson to understand it. Funny isn't it?
Well this world is full of paradoxes. You lose in order to understand the importance. In other words, it's somewhat like a case of losing to win. However, not always would it be like a cinderella story.
A nice story to end this... Just as i was about to end this post, i control + A to select a sentence but accidentally deleted this whole past. For a moment i was frustrated, started to hope that i could redo such. Until i used control + z, i got it back. It got me thinking as usual. It's a case of understanding the meaning till it's lost. This would just be some normal post as usual, but now.. it's like a lesson for everyone including me. There isn't a undo button in life. We lost it and it's gone. Occasionally, there is correcting button in our lives. But the scar remains.
If i didn't tell you all about this, wouldn't this just be another ordinary post? Now i understand the significance. Not just about this post, but clearer about things in general. I hope this can enlighten you all in some way or another. Sounds lame but it doesn't matter.

As i was just surfing around facebook, i stumbled upon many sec 2 camp pictures. It really reminded me of Level camps. I hate and certainly dread level camps. Boring, Childish, Waste of time and totally unproductive. Team spirit is supposed to be built up through these stuff, but sad to say, it led me to be even more resentful. I clearly did not enjoy my level camps other than the night events in our own bunks. Every year its always high elements ( yawns), water activities being too short and campfire cheers are simply too cliche.
The only camp i seriously enjoy was ANE camp. Cause at least that has some level of fun compared to level camps where things are so rigid. In the other words, its just cheap thrill. Shouting your lungs out and then strepsils in your mouth, doesn't fancy me at all. And the performances also.. Nothing but ordinary. Overly cliche and lets me down. At least skit is interesting compared to dance where we get to do simple moves and expect to make us happy. Horrible ideas are always welcomed in such camps, good ideas are generally not popular. Somehow or another, 70% of the people in level camps enjoy themselves. Out of these, 70% of them are just enjoying themselves to fit in.
Gosh! Call me a wet blanket or spoil sport, but level camps are just overly disappointing. Thankfully its paid with edusave, if not i will be lamenting over the waste of cash. Thankfully i'm out of all these crap, and let's hope fun lies ahead.
Seems like becoming a talk show now eh? I guess i will leave a comment button for anyone to give their opinion on this.
Campfire's burning down. Obviously, thats why its called fire.

O levels are over. Just when my mood was great. I realised somethings just don't change.
Class outings. FUCK. To think i fucking gave a damn about 4/7 to even organise an outing. Don't turn up, sure. The effort used to put in for all these was seriously tiring. I had to bug people to get things done and draft out a plan for everyone. So what do i get for sentosa? My friends going only? See first see first. See what? All everyone does is to disappoint.
Organising is never easy. Saying NO to people's effort is so damn easy. But organising is the total opposite. You guys are fucking hard to please. Always at your beck and call. Great. So what? I owe you a living here? Do you need me to feed your family?
For goodness sake, ask yourselves. You like to make it hard, why not you organise and i be difficult. Huh? Like it? You know what? You want a chalet? You want good location? You want cheap? Yeah? Sounds good?
Go fly a bloody kite. Thats a fucking utopia. How about having a free chalet with maids serving you? Yeah? Free BBQ? Dream on.
You want anything now, go get it yourself. Organise it yourself. Play hard to get? Go ahead.
It's not my problem. I only care about my friends. What is 4/7? 4/7 is only made up of my friends. You treat the outings like a backup? We don't talk about feelings here. Cause the damage was done a donkey years ago. Disappointment after disappointment. Just do things your way yeah?
Get your free chalet at www.go-fly-a-kite.com
This applies to certain people. Go decipher it yourself. I don't need your sympathy.

O LEVELS START IN TWO WEEKS TIME!
OMG WTH!
Okay but well, i've been filled with both excitement and anxiety. Oh dear, and thoughts of results will always cripple me with fear. Whatever it is, we should keep our cool and work towards what we have been aiming for. One chance = Big one
I'm really looking forward to get into a JC that i want to go! And also, the freedom that i long for 1 year. 2 months of non-stop playing is worth the hardwork. Chalet, mahjong, food, games and many more just makes me determined.
Won't be posting till then.... After 13 Nov, this blog will be once again filled with life. No worries!
