Things I did with my time this holidays
1. Online … 10%
2. Eat … 9.5%
3. Sleep & Relax … 40%
4. Exercise … 0.5%
5. Tuition … 25%
6. Going out … 5%
7. Study… 10% ONLY
SHIT.
The only consolation is that when you all read this, you’re going to feel so much better about yourselves. Yippay.
;(
On another note, look at what turned up on my Google Chrome!
The help section reads:
“For times when you want to browse in stealth mode, for example, to plan surprises like gifts or birthdays, Google Chrome offers the incognito browsing mode.”
ROFL?
Plan birthdays or gifts, my ass.
Tip for all the closet porn watchers: download Google Chrome.
And I have a confession:
Deleted it. Can’t confess it here. That would be MEAN.
Even my 5-hour long shopping trip today at Mutiara Damansara can’t take away the dread of the impending trials! And I was walking around and around to the Curve to Ikano to the Bazaar and back! And and I have blisters! And my bag was so heavy after just 3 hours!
…
Okay maybe it did. A leeeeettle.
After all, I did spend RM223. :)
Hooked on: Lifehouse - Broken
Maxwell - Pretty Wings
Disney Friends for Change - Send it On
The Send It On song is cheesy, but it’s worth a listen. (:
And as if Yuee Sun’s blog doesn’t need any more publicity, you MUST go there and see the video of David having a very engaging conversation with… Koe Yeet’s pencil case. I shit you not.
Go figure.

Getting old never felt so good.
It WAS supposed to be a really meaningful day, but it was cut short by the fact that I had to dash off immediately after I got my plaque and cert to the Ed Board committee interview. A bit potong lah. I mean, I spent all year raphsodising about the wonders of the Ed Board and demeaning the LPS, and when I finally decide to go say goodbye to the librarians, I have something Ed Board to do.
Anyway I only just got a good look at this thing.
And I don’t know when I was ever Pen. Ketua Buku Acara / Jemputan Installation!
EDITTTT
Ern Lyn, me, Hwee Yeen.
This picture, taken yesterday before I dashed off to Ed Board, is significant for two reasons.
1. They were partly the reason I never tendered my resignation to the LPS. Back in Form 2 when I was all into the pet family thing, they were my Sisters. :)
2. IT’S THE LAST TIME YOU’LL EVER SEE ME IN A TIE. HA HA HA.
You know what the funny thing was? It wasn’t even my tie. It was Vivien Peh’s spare one. Last day as a librarian and I freaking forget to bring my tie. I’m a wucking fonderful librarian.
Hooked on: Paramore – Ignorance
Something to announce: I’m sleepy. And I’m happy to say that I was wrong. Some things don’t change. Even the good things. Today’s Chemistry tuition proved that. Thank you, Jun Wei.
Something to gush: I LOVE CUPID! The TV show. :)
Something to think about: Happiness isn't something you experience; it's something you remember. What am I going to remember?
Something to split brains over: choosing between going to the LPS Installation or the Ed Board committee 09/10 meeting on Friday. Both around the same time. Yes, I know I don’t like the LPS anymore. But my analogy is it’s like a funeral of someone you didn’t like: no love lost, but I still feel the need to say goodbye properly.
Something to ponder: What would I have wanted them to tell me had our positions been reversed? What would I want them to say to me now?
Something to complain about: I’d really hoped to wrap up the mag production by this week, but it looks like we still have one more assignment! They just don’t stop coming do they.
Something to laugh about: I’ve been running after Pn. Joyce for the Ed Board articles like a teacher runs after students for late homework. Not something you get to do every day.
Something to complain about again: Yuee Sun’s blog. Just try clicking on it. Can’t miss it. Hits your eye the way an elephant goes for peanuts. Makes you feel utterly hopeful and relaxed, like nothing’s gonna go wrong at all and every thing is coming up roses. Wheee!
Something to worry about: Ian’s birthday present! Because Pei She, Yu Li and Carmen have all already gotten him something. Even though it’s more than a month away!!!
Something to be sad about: Joel’s leaving for Singapore on Sunday.
“A committee can make a decision that is dumber than any of its members.”
- David Coblitz.
Something to think about before tomorrow’s interview commences.
Something Ian Christoper Johnson showed Pei She showed me. Have a laugh.
Something I realized: There’s a lot of negative thoughts up there. But I still feel really optimistic. Dangerously so. Optimists rule the world and everyone else are dinosaurs. :)
Something to admit: Yes yes. I did swear off onlining. I suck. At least, my willpower does.
Dug out some of my artwork. To show off, yes.
But before you start telling me how wonderful I am at art, I need to confess: these and stick people are the only things I know how to draw.
Which is why they kinda all look the same.
I had nothing to write in my diary today. So I did this instead:
So? Tell me how I did. (:

Makes you want to sick up, doesn’t it?
“Never frown, even when you’re sad, because you never know when someone is falling in love with your smile.”
For all my efforts, someone had BETTER be falling in love with me RIGHT NOW.
EDITTT
I’m reading all my fellow Form 5’s blogs. So many of the clubs have already had their AGM. One by one, we’re all stepping down. This time last year, we were going up UP UP. But now we’ve all got to stop all the work and play and say bye bye.
And this is when I realized how lucky I am. Because I LOVE the club I am in. I’m good at the work, I like the people, and that makes me enjoy the work. And suppose you could call what I’m working for a good cause. Haha.
What makes me really lucky is that I don’t have to retire from this particular club till the end of the year. :)
You know, I had a thought.
No jokes please, FC.
Some time ago I stumbled upon one of my junior’s blogs by accident. She bitched about the board in one of her posts, and I was really dismayed to see it. I spoke with her in person and the matter was resolved. No hard feelings remain from that incident.
Another case is when my sister complained on her blog about a certain group of people in her school who were giving her misery. Her teacher saw it and asked who they were. My sister had not intended for the teacher to find out. She got the shock of her life!
The thing about my junior and my sister is, neither of them had expected their seniors and teachers to read their blogs.
Why, though? Blogs are made public aren’t they? So why are we assuming that seniors and teachers or other people we want to bitch about won’t read our rantings?
Blogging is a confusing world.
Are blogs private, or are they public? And who is allowed to comment?
Pretty often we see this intro in the profile of people’s blogs:
“Hi I am xxx. This is my life and my blog, so I can say what I want in it.”
Which, expanded, means: “I’ll say what I want, so don’t even try telling me off, because it’s MY blog not yours.”
Which really translates to: “This is the reason I’m what I’m saying is so crass: it’s my blog. I don’t want to have to deal with your criticism. I want to show the world that I don’t care what anyone thinks of me.”
Which doesn’t make sense at all. It’s not a good reason. It’s not even a reason. Because you’re going to have to accept criticism or nobody’s going to read your blog at all.
And don’t even say you don’t want anyone to read your blog. Cause if you didn’t want anyone to read it, you’re better off with a diary or a privatized blog.
So here’s a piece of the truth:
Every single blogger out there is an attention-seeker.
(Yours truly included.)
You want people to read you, know about you, commend you, praise you, like you, love you.
And before you say anything, there’s nothing wrong with being an attention-seeker. Not just all bloggers, most people are. Even the quiet ones. Very few people don’t want to be recognized or noticed in some form. We all have self-esteem, whether it’s a lot or a little. Who doesn’t want their five minutes of fame?
But back to the above, you want people to read what you have to say on your blog and not comment about it, and love you for it? How do you expect people to be impressed? Maybe some warped part of you thinks that it’s cool to show that you don’t care? Or maybe you’re so desperate for attention that your mindset is like the Fall Out Boy lyric that’s my blog title?
Sorry to have to disappoint you, but like it or not, your blog is PUBLIC. And if it’s PUBLIC, it means ANYONE can read it. Like the movie ratings – PG-13, PG-18, and U. And if you think someone’s not going to like your blog, then it shouldn’t be rated U and it should have limited viewing permissions.
Again I say, if you really didn’t want anyone to read and comment, you’d be better off with a nice old-fashioned handwritten diary. As it is, you wanted attention, so you have a blog. But you have to accept responsibility for what you do to get that attention. Saying that you won’t take heed of people’s comments is shirking responsibility for hurt feelings that you have incited. And it just proves that you’re inflexible and afraid of criticism.
Get it straight.
BLOGS ARE NOT PRIVATE. DIARIES ARE.
You have to watch your words when you express, because it is public. It’s like peeing in public and saying by way of apology, “So what? I needed to go use the loo.”
Okay so you still want your attention. And granted, typing is oh-so-bloody-much easier than writing, so you don’t want to get a diary. Then if you REALLY want to show that you’re unconcerned about what people think, that people’s opinions don’t affect you, instead of “I’ll say what I like”, shouldn’t you be saying “I have my reasons for saying what I do. I’m prepared to answer any doubts you have about what I said"? Or at least make an adult content statement like Miaw Fen did.
It’s lengthy and complicated. But in the world of blogging and almost non-existent blogging ethics, I think it’s pretty much necessary.
Granted, some bloggers are sometimes just pissed off beyond caring, so nothing really applies to them. But still, make an attempt to hide it can? Because sometimes the consequences are so not worth it.
I would know.
BLOG RESPONSIBLY.
That said, readers really shouldn’t be judging by what bloggers say. I know people whose blogging- and real life- personalities are as different as Yin and Yang.
I don’t think I made much sense. But whatever. :) I am an attention-seeker, and when I get an idea I have to share it.
Just like the rest of you.
Attempted to upload all the wedding photos to facebook TWICE, wasting 40 minutes of my time, and BOTH times at the end pop up this stupid message.
Upload failed. Try again.
!!!!!!
Not even a sorry. Or a please try again.
THE COMPUTER FREAKING RUDE LAH.
SOMEBODY PROGRAM SOME MANNERS INTO FACEBOOK CAN?
I am PISSED OFF because of FaceBook.
I am PISSED OFF because I spent two hours here on the com instead of using it to study, because both Lit Class and Physics Tuition are off today. Which was supposed to be a good thing, but now I’m wasting it.
And I am PISSED OFF because he wasn’t serious.If you wanted to go with somebody else all along, you shouldn’t have asked me in the first place.
I give up! I’m going to pound the pavement!
Picture post up ahead. For those of you who are capable of capturing beautiful shots with your canggih (or not) cameras, do refrain from commenting and try not to wince!
