So I’ve been on my longest hiatus ever, RIGHT?
The com’s been cold and lonely all week, RIGHT??
And I’ve been doing nothing but swotting up on history, RIGHT??!
WRONG!
:D
*TOOOT* you lose!
I HAVE been coming online. Just not updating the blog.
AND DON’T PRETEND THAT YOU HAVEN’T BEEN
DOING THAT EITHER.
Because every day when I log in to facebook, walao A. The number of form 5s who are online is astonishing mind-blasting. We’re not really updating our statuses, in the hope that people will think that we’ve got awezum self-control to resist the irresistible call of the World Wide Web.
But DON’T BE FOOLED!
If you actually bother to click on people’s pages, you can see that they’re still buying and selling friends, getting high scores in typing games, and playing MAFIA WARS.

It’s true I tell you. And at least I got the guts to admit that my willpower is slush. Well, me and Jing Wei. She’s the only one I can see who’s consistently blogging. Atta girl!
SOOOO fellow pejuang SPM, if you’re online these few days and you happen to be reading this, I dare you to leave a message in my chatbox to prove that you’ve been here.
There is NO SHAME in succumbing to the net! This is the age of science and technology and we should be embracing it!!! :D
And don’t try to pretend that you’re not here either. I can see the hits going up.
*And you know my hits don’t lie (;*
But before you say anything, I HAVE been studying. And though history is actually really interesting if you take the time to get to know it, it’s really still just a vague swooshy mush in my head. Like Hock Eu said, “Actually we know all the facts one. They’re just all jumbled up and disorganized in our heads.”
Interpreted by me, it means, “We’ll be able to get though paper 1, but paper 2 is probably going to kill us.”

It is now 3 days to the SPM.
Remember way back when it was 300? And then it was 30. And now THIS. The weird thing is I was more panicky at 30 days than now.
Because I STUDIED! NYAHA :D
And besides learning the names of the Prophet’s wives and his successors, the glory of the Islamic Empire, about Spartans and Greeks and the difference between Zimmi, Mozarab, Modejar (I think), Zakat, Jizyah and Mawali, I think the number one thing I’ve learnt in the past few days is:
STUDY GROUPS DON’T
WORK.
Discussion groups do.
Meaning that you have to study beforehand, then meet up to discuss. Because
1. The discussion will help it stick in your brain. Seriously. It does.
2. You absolutely can’t study with friends around, because societal norms dictate that we absolutely MUST talk when you’re in company, because if not it just feels awkward. (And I have thought about the ridiculousness of this fact. But we can think about it properly after the SPM lah.)
3. If you don’t study before you come for the study group and you’re hanging around people who have already studied, you end up feeling like an idiot as they smoothly spout historical factlets.
Okay lah, a bit late to be telling you all this.
But now you know. (:
Now be a good person, leave a message and go study.
Or you could just pretend that this is a whole plot by me in order to make my chatbox not look so dead, and ignore it and go study, screw the hits.
Either way, I’m still a genius. (:
One last thing:
SPM ONLY MAAAH. :D
Okay BYE.
