12:27 AM

Okay. In case you are wondering why there wasn't any post yesterday, stupid Blogger ate my post and it was about as long as my history essay question. Therefore, I have decided not to retype it (Or you can call me plain lazy).

Anyway. I woke up rather late this morning at about 5:13 (usually it's 5:00) so and it was a bit of a rush. I still got to school at about 6:00 and went to the classroom to do my Science homework and to blog. And that's when the stupid Blogger ate up my post. I was so stupid not to save it to draft but it's past history now so let's forget about that. I wasn't about to ruin my day with a stupid website (which ironically I'm using now). Let's just quote from Ms. MKS (Oops I forgot her full name-just remembered her initials) "Anything you get from the web free will suck."

Oh by the way, Ms. MKS is the owner of THIS website that offers html codes for websites and blogs (music and stuff) and it should still be functioning. I think she's pretty cool so check the website out. XD yay I'm advertising!

Then I headed for band but when I got there, it dawned upon me...that I left my mouthpiece in my bag! (F.Y.I. A mouthpiece is a separate piece from an instrument (brass instruments only) that you blow into. It can be taken out to be washed, etc. ) I hd to run back, grab it and return to the band room again. Considering the size of the campus, I can say that I have lost all the calories I had for breakfast (Mocha coffee, peanut butter and cheese and butter sandwich).

After flag-raising, I didn't feel like going back for reading period, even though there's you jin's column in zao bao. First two periods I had InfoComm Studies, which is basically a sophisticated word for Computer lesson. Ahha, an example of verbosity.

It was the last lesson of IS with Mr. Galvin Sng who relieved Mr. Koh. Galvin Sng is a very talented (or so I have read from the net--I googled him) website designer and as I can see from his website, a pious Christian and songwriter and T-shirt designer and have won many awards for the school when he was here (He's an alumnus of the school). It makes me kind of depressed--this geeky person have done so much and I'm still stuck, with sort of falling grades and slacky attitude. I don't know - it makes me feel so small.

Nonetheless, I comforted myself with the fact that he's a lax teacher and in terms of discipline in the class, he fails. Ahha! Then I entertained myself by listing insults from A-Z for my classmates. I had Annoying, Born losers and I was stuck at I as there were so many choices (irritating, irksome, icky, insincere...) and then I saw those idiots elevating their chairs (we had those office types in the lab) so that their feet dangled in the air and they were high and mighty.

Sadly, idiots will remain as they are. Are they really that deprived of attention at home? I pity their parents, they themselves and their primary school teachers - it's really unfortunate. Perhaps they put on a mask when they get home - but it is really what you do when you think no one is watching that counts.

Anyway I filled in Inferior Complex for I. The last few letters were a bit hard, so I skipped them. In any case, I have no interest in C++ as I don't know exactly why would I need such a program which adds up integers and calculate my grades if I can do the sums myself (at least I can do that with my level of mathematics)

Galvin called me to organise the class at the end of the lesson to take a group photo. I don't know what happenedm, but I was leaning on the cupboard while he spoke, but when I straightened myself, the whole thing just toppled and it was lucky my reflexes kicked in and Galvin Sng held that thing stable.

Anyway, that freak accident was soon forgotten and we had a class photo. 3 actually. Some revolting boys purposely tugged at their pants as if they're sexually deprived or something. That is sick. Seriously, I think they might want to consider counselling. Or I might want to consider counselling as if I have to stay in that hellhole I would soon go mad. It's actually very sad - I dread coming to school or returning to the classroom after band just because of these insolent people. I kept telling myself not to let they ruin my day, but still they managed to do it. Maybe that's the reason I like the band so much - all the people there are nice and warm, like family, unlike the classroom where sarcasm and vulgarity reign.

It's not fair to say that all my classmates are bad - it's only a minority that cause this melancholy feeling. I do have friends like Zhenyang and Yao Nian, so it's not too bad. I don't know why, but everytime I have leadership duties like being the Head Prefect or the Chairperson, it's very stressful. I'm always the bad guy, and even though I try to be nice, I'll get labelled. That's partly why I didn't want to be a counseller. The situation in Hwachong is so dreadful that I can't see the point of trying to change it. It's near hopeless.

During recess, I bumped into someone and although I apologised profusely, all I had in return were strings of profanity. Don't their parents teach them anything at home?

Mathematics- we had an interesting lesson on cones and slanted height. I hope I remember them. We have to do this assignment on cutting pieces of paper and constructing 3D shapes. I hope I can finish it after blogging. (It's about 1:20am now- I drank some Mocha)

Chinese period was spent on composition - reading model scripts. One of the classmates which I dislike had written quite well. I scored 45/70 - This is so humiliating. But I couldn't care less as my mind was on how to improve and how on earth did this person write so well. It just made me feel even worse.

We had to design a logo for any organisation for Art. I'll thinking of a Band logo... hah. I don't know, I'll let you guys know soon.

Literature wasn't too bad and I headed for the band room straightaway. Just hung around for a while and Kheexuan my senior tried conducting in 3/4 time signature. It's was erm... not too good? But for a first attempt, nice try, so go Kheexuan go...

We had sectionals with the Euphonium tutor today, but Ernest told us that he would come at 4:30. Weiqi and me had 3rd Language, and we had to go for that. Kun Won sort of yelled when he heard. Apparently, he rushed here, skipping his revision. Anyway, he was doing his Chinese composition and I feel small again - it was a good compo'. And Kun Won should be just an average student in Chinese. So I, the supposedly Chinese prodigy writer (ACK!) is still lagging behind! Oh great.

On my way to the Centre Zhenyang bluetoothed me some cute pictures and I was trying to send him a song but it was nearing my stop. So I tried to run after the bus to maintain the 10 metre distance but it was about 67% when it failed. Sigh.

3rd Language started bad. I have forgotten to pass Rui Jin the test paper, so Sensei was like gasping at me. Oh make me feel so bad. AHH so guilty.

STUPID.

So the day ended with me watching this scary documentary called 'A Haunting' and it was super scary - I get the creeps. It's about this boy who had a imaginary friend called 'Man' and it was ghastly. Oh great now I'm too freaked out to turn around. Stupid.

Yes, I should end now. Thanks for reading
