Edwin Comes To My House

Before I come to the title, I'd just blog about daily life first.

Was watching Doraemon on TV this morning, lol. One episode was quite nice. Starts with Jaian very unhappy and wanting someone to fight with to vent his frustration. Nobita and Doraemon wanted to get someone to fight against Jaian, so as to let him vent his anger and thus they won't become victims of it. Doraemon took out some funny gadget that can sense anger, and it's just a punching bag attached with a string to the handle. Apparently, when someone with angry thoughts is near the gadget, the punching bag will immediately point at the person (similar to a penis erecting, I may add :P *shifty eyes* lol). The two went around looking for someone angry too so he too can fight against Jaian. They found an angry child unwilling to get up without his mother's support, an angry wife chucking things at her husband (with things flying out of the windows like shit, a spoon even hit Doraemon lol), and a huge muscular guy whom is going to pwn Jaian. So, finally, they find a guy similar to Jaian, but they can't find Jaian, lol. They went around, and finally when the guy starts to get frustrated and wanted to beat Nobita and Doraemon up instead, they managed to find Jaian. They both got into a fight with a dramatic showdown. The guy was clenching his fists, Jaian pointing his left palm at the guy like Luffy doing Gomu Gomu no Jet Pistol while his right hand was positioned a bit backwards but still as a palm (lol Buddha Palm). They both think to themselves that they mustn't underestimate the opponent, and after building up quite an intensive atmosphere, they both jumped towards each other, and guess what? All we get to see is just smoke, with the occasional fist and foot popping up. Sigh, what am I expecting from an anime targeted at kids anyway? After their long fight, both of them felt much better. They became friends and agreed to find another time to fight again. Then, after a commercial break, we go forward in time. The four main characters (minus Jaian) was remarking how good their lives suddenly become, with Jaian so cheerful everyday due to being able to fight everyday. Then suddenly, the guy moves houses, and Jaian gets back to his bullying routine.

What the heck, man? They just have to ruin such a good ending! Oh well, Doraemon is the sort of anime where nothing will ever ever change, and you can read any chapter any time you want in no particular order. It's as if the episodes reset themselves at the end. Psh.

Ok, so yeah, Edwin, with his parents, came to my house during the night to check on how grandfather is. [I have an urge to blog in Singlish now. :)]

Edwin's mother talk very harsh one nia, so guess what? I took a straw, put it into my mouth like a cigarette (though it's more like Ash's Treecko/Grovyle/Sceptile putting a twig into his mouth XD) and smoke Sanji-like whenever she wants to say something harsh. So it's like Yujun impression, "I'm a gangster!" Lol...

Then the TV stupid one nia. The ugly woman kena hit so many times by the bad guy then die. Bad guy lousy nia. Bad guy leh, still what damn evil, then take so many hits to kill the ugly woman. Lousy lah, balik kampung lah you!

Then Edwin and I got bored. We went to play BeyBlade, but then he always kena hit, down there "Ouch ouch ouch!" so we discontinued play. Wanted to play Pokémon TCG, but he dunno how to play (I blame Edmond for not teaching him >:(), then we play Scrabble lor. Kena sai, everytime we play 3-letter words, damn hard to continue. Then we tulan restart. Then his father come play together lor.

Got one time I put 'pod', then he misheard it as 'pot' and went, "That's a 'D', not a 'T'!" -.-" I then tell him I playing 'pod', and he say no such word. I give him dictionary, say if no such word he give me ten bucks. He finds the word, then excuse say he cannot read the definitions (too small in the dictionary).

Then we playing playing and I put 'O' above an 'I' to form 'oi'. And then he go, "No such word!" -.-" I say if I can find proof that this word exists he give me another ten dollars. I take the Scrabble manual go to the list of two-letter words and give him see, then he excuse say the list of words is cannot use one. -.- Lol.

Then we play play play, and then halfway three of Edwin's seven letters spell 'wtf', rofl. I took the word and place them in the right order at the left together. We both laughed out loud lol. I thought he dunno the phrase nia (I mean, he's like only 9?). Then we play some more, he used up his t, then much later I form a 'toe'. He took his remaining 'w' and 'f' and put between the 't', forming 'WTF' lol. And his father was like "What the fuck is wtf?" rofl. I explained with a "What the f.", then his father still confused confused, so Edwin shouted "What the fuck!" XD Roflmao nia, his father quickly raise a palm like want to slap him like that (threateningly of course, not for real). I shout for my father come see. XD

Then Edwin's parents say want to go liao, so we keep the Scrabble lor. Then we go living room hang out for a while nothing happens. Then we go back bedroom play pillow fight rofl. Two pillows and two bolsters lay on the mattress. We stand on each side of mattress. Then I say "Go!", we rush to the center, pick up stuff and whack lol.

Play halfway, I take two pillows and did a Tiger Hunt (Zoro's technique from One Piece) rofl. He buay tahan hide under my bed. XD Wanted to do the Nigiri chain of combos too, but then target inapproriate, so I only can do the stance. XD Then I went to master bedroom kope pillows lol. Now we got five pillows two bolsters, yay. Song lor, we down there use it to whack, shield and even throw like javelins. XD Aiya, forgot to shout "FIRE IN THE HOLE!" when I throw. XD

Then he had to go. I go my fridge take coca-cola drink (eh very tired what), then Edwin's mother suddenly come give me $20. My father want me return, but then I sneakily drinking what, so how to go out and give back, holding the 1.5 litre of coca-cola in my right hand? o.O Then my father take my $20 want give back, but then they escaped already. Turns out Edwin's mother stroke 4D or something, win money give me some pocket money lol.

Then I realized, "Aiya never mind lah. Edwin's father owes me 20 bucks anyway, I'll treat this as the money he gives." XD

Then I went for second bath for the day. XD

Aiya, gotta end blog liao. 11pm now, my grandfather want to sleep nia. D:

Examinations Are Here Again! II

Lol part two in a relative sense.

Forgot about studying for letter-writing format, lol, thanks to seeing Vernon studying it. Still, no use to study for it. Completely studied the wrong one, since I studied letter-writing and it came out report -.-, so I just had to do a format anyhow. I'm sure to get it wrong, lol. I chose 'disaster' as my composition topic. Wrote crap about disasters being a way God punishes Man for doing all kinds of shit to harm the Earth, like deforestation, but then Man is just determined to stand up against disasters (see this). And I ended with 'Can Man hope to stand up against Mother Nature?' or some crap like that. I'm expecting my results to be a disaster when I get them back too. XD

Teacher was like going, "Put your pens down." during the end of the exam, yet Larry was still rushing and writing some more. Larry's the one to usually follow what the teachers say to the letter, and we see him always bowing down to teachers and shit when the rest of us couldn't even be bothered, and now he's defying the teacher in order to write more sentences, lol. Can't help but laugh. XD So after he's done, I gave him what I wrote during my spare time, the last two parts and the chorus of We Live In Singapura, lol. He told me he thinks slow too, and I remember from the English TYS, "Speed of thinking is confused with intelligence itself." XD

Then Yoshida showed me the crap he wrote. Something like 'disaster is good, because people die, then he get money'. Gee, something is wrong about that guy, lol, keep wanting his parents/grandparents to die so he can get the inheritances. *rolls eyes*

Chinese paper 2 is hard. I'm sure to screw it up, but eh, who cares. The Geography teacher came during the ending part of the paper (when I was almost bored to death) and wrote down six names, presumely for some competition as she told us. I was laughing out silently when she mispelt Ephraim's name as Ephram lol. Watch out, Ephraim can ram you!! XD And then I got called by the stupid teacher for laughing at Larry (during end of English paper) and Ephraim. Yay, laughing is now banned. Hey, you, you are laughing out loud! Pay a fine of three million bucks! Hey! Why are you rolling on the floor laughing? Fine of five million bucks!! *rolls eyes* And the teacher called it 'laughing at people's misfortune'.

'cher, you call me, you leave me behind in the classroom alone with me, you have to lecture me when I love nothing but a hearty laugh, and that, 'cher, is not only invading my human right to do whatever I want (aka laugh whenever the heck I want), but 'cher, is also creating a misfortune. Yoshida was laughing at me when you called my name to ask me to stay back, 'cher, isn't that call 'laughing at people's misfortune' too, 'cher? Why you never ask him stay back with me? 'cher, you very unfair and injust leh, 'cher, y'know, 'cher? You everyday say the pledge got the words 'based on justice and equality'. 'cher, you call this 'justice'? You call this 'equality'? No leh, 'cher. Then you say the pledge everyday for what? Wah lao eh you. How can you so liddat one? No fair y'know, 'cher.

Uh-hem.

Yoshida seems to dislike the passage about trees, lol. Then 'Ephram' has to go look for Geography teacher, because he got the competition thing. Wasted time climbing up and down the staircases for like six times, knocking the doors of the staff room. And when he meets the teacher, he said, "No! I don't want to go!" and run for his life. We followed.

By the way, know why I replied 'huh?' to almost half of the sentences my grandfather said?

"Lee discouraged the usage of non-Mandarin Chinese dialects (such as Hokkien, Teochew and Cantonese) by promoting Mandarin as the 'Mother Tongue' of ethnic Chinese, in view of having a common language of communication within the Chinese community. In 1979, Lee officially launched the first Speak Mandarin Campaign. Lee also cancelled the broadcasting of all television programmes in non-Mandarin dialects, with the exception of news and operas, for the benefit of the older audience. However, the policy worked at the expense of non-Mandarin Chinese dialects. Since that time, most of the younger Chinese Singaporeans are no longer able to speak non-Mandarin Chinese dialects fluently, thus encountering some difficulty when communicating with their dialect-speaking grandparents."

I blame Lee Kuan Yew. >:(

Pokémon Diamond and Pearl are nice. I just hates how slowly the characters walk. Even with running shoes they still run slower than an ant. Sucks for impatient people like me. And reading a manga isn't an option, you already need two hands to play. :(

Examinations Are Here Again!

Was watching the dubbed version of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl on YouTube yersterday night, lol. No choice, since fansubs have subbed only up to episode 2. -.- First three episodes of DP is nice, and I see almost no change in terms of storyline with the Japanese version. It's just that Dawn's voice does not sound like a ten-year-old girl, lol. Hikari's voice is much more cuter. <3

Main point? I almost forgot about the exams. Thanks to my mother for the reminder that I had exams today, rofl.

English exam was fine. The passage is easy to understand. I just hope I didn't screw up. ^_^ Was having spare time in the end, so I did a lot of shit with the two extra pieces of paper. First page was a draft of my English summary (and to which is necessary for the exam).

Then, I was thinking of a Charizard with the ability to use Double Team and Belly Drum, and then with exceptionally high Attack, thrash the hell out of enemies using physical attacks and type advantages. Here's how it goes. Use Double Team continously, to ensure that no attack from your enemy will score a hit (shall we hope your opponent does not know Shock Wave, Aerial Ace, Swift, or those other never-miss moves?). Use Belly Drum (Charizards can learn it through breeding), cutting his HP to half and increasing Attack by six levels. And then to amuse myself further, I was imagining the most shitty team that can ever come up against Charizard. Let's say the enemy uses a team of five Pokémon: Scizor, Aggron, Magnezone, Parasect and Delibird. Note that Belly Drum increases Attack by six levels, and thus increases Attack by 400%.

Scizor (Bug/Steel)
"Charizard, Flare Blitz!"
Damage
= {[(2 x Level / 5 + 2) x AttackStat x AttackPower / DefenseStat] / 50 + 2} x STAB x Weakness/Resistance
= {[(2 x 100/5 + 2) x 293 x 4 x 120 / 299] / 50 + 2} x 1.5 x 4
= 2370.774 damage
Scizor's HP: 344
Damage percentage: 689.18%

Aggron (Rock/Steel)
"Charizard, Focus Punch!"
Damage
= {[(2 x Level / 5 + 2) x AttackStat x AttackPower / DefenseStat] / 50 + 2} x STAB x Weakness/Resistance
= [(2 x 100 / 5 + 2) x 293 x 4 x 150 / 459] / 50 + 2} x 1 x 4
= 1294.9 damage
Aggron's HP: 344
Damage percentage: 376.42%

Magnezone (Electric/Steel)
"Charizard, Earthquake!"
Damage
= {[(2 x Level / 5 + 2) x AttackStat x AttackPower / DefenseStat] / 50 + 2} x STAB x Weakness/Resistance
= {[(2 x 100 / 5 + 2) x 293 x 4 x 100 / 329] / 50 + 2} x 1 x 4
= 1204.94 damage
Magnezone's HP: 344
Damage percentage: 350.27%

Parasect (Grass/Bug)
"Charizard, Fly!" [Don't ask why not Flare Blitz please.]
Damage
= {[(2 x Level / 5 + 2) x AttackStat x AttackPower / DefenseStat] / 50 + 2} x STAB x Weakness/Resistance
= {[(2 x 100 / 5 + 2) x 293 x 4 x 100 / 259] / 50 + 2} x 1.5 x 4
= 2292.65 damage
Parasect's HP: 324
Damage percentage: 707.61%

Delibird (Ice/Flying)
"Charizard, Rock Slide!"
Damage
= {[(2 x Level / 5 + 2) x AttackStat x AttackPower / DefenseStat] / 50 + 2} x STAB x Weakness/Resistance
= {[(2 x 100 / 5 + 2) x 293 x 4 x 75 / 189] / 50 + 2} x 1 x 4
= 1570.67 damage
Delibird's HP: 294
Damage percentage: 534.24%

Awfully pwnage, man.

Then, I imagine myself taking part in a Pokémon League, and I can only choose 20 Pokémon to use throughout the entire league, although my choice of Pokémon during battles is limited to only six, which I must through before a match. For example, I chose 20 Pokémon for the entire league. Before I go to round one, I choose which six I want to use. I cannot use the other fourteen, or the rest of my Pokémon which I did not choose when I registered for the League as a matter of fact. When I advance to round two, I am able to again choose which six I want to use out of the twenty, and so on. Of course, my team is filled with Fire-types (I'm the Flame Master after all), but I added in some Pokémon to balance the team as well as surprising the opponents ("Heh, I've watched all of your previous matches, and you only use Fire-type Pokémon! Let me pwn you with my entire team of Water-type Pokémon!!" "Oh, really? Let's go, Jolteon!" "Oh, what the f***?! S***!"), lol. I wrote down a list of all seventeen types, and thus was able to see which type I did not include in my team. The only type I did not take is Ghost, lol.

Then, getting an idea when I wrote down the list of the seventeen types, I wrote a list of Gym Leaders in Kanto, Johto, and Hoenn (since the types of the gym leaders in Kanto and Johto plus Dark equal to all seventeen types). Forgot which city Morty is in (only until at this point of time, while typing this exact sentence, that I manage to remember that it is Ecruteak City. -_- I might also want to add that at this point of time, my One Piece 306 has finishes downloading), and forgot a lot of chunk about the Hoenn Gym Leaders (now what I forgot is flowing back into me. Winona is from Fortree City, Tate and Liza are from Mossdeep City. Too late, guys. ^_^").

And behind that I wrote the lyrics of We Live In Singapura. Only wrote the first three parts, due to lack of space and laziness to ask the teacher for another piece of paper. I know we ought to be doing our part for the earth and start saving paper, but three lines between each question? What a great way to set an example.

After the exam, I showed Larry what I wrote, lol. He remarked that I still had time to do a draft for my summary (I thought everybody does it o.O), and that I sure had a lot of time to write all those crap. He studied the list of Gym Leaders, and looked at my team of 20 Pokémon, and saw Dragon (in the column of the 17 Pokémon types) beside 'Pidgeot - Normal/Flying' and asked, "Pidgeot is a Dragon-type?" Lol, I still had to explain. He took my lyrics of We Live In Singapura and read it, singing the song softly, lol. In the end he took it home. ^_^"

Had a little fight with Yoshida at the corridor, lol, just because we are travelling in the opposite direction up a narrow way (thanks to Samuel for blocking the remaining way), and we pushed each other trying to get across, lol. That guy's gotta give it a break with the kicking, or else I'm gonna start nicknaming him Hitmonlee. XD

Ephraim keeps remarking how he is going to fail the Chinese exam later, lol.

Chinese is all right. Wrote a letter praising the service attitude of a hotel and an essay on the Integrated Resort. I immediately think of "IR, locals have to pay. Foreign talent are okay." in We Live In Singapura, lol, and I wrote it as a problem of the IR. Almost wanted to write shit like Singaporeans will feel unfair as they have to pay (unlike foreigners who don't, just because they want to attract tourism *rolls eyes*), then they will get so angry an repetition of the Boxer Rebellion will occur. XD

Got bored after finishing and played Cellblock against myself, lol.

Now that my grandfather is living with us due to being sick, I think I'm looking least forward to the meals, lol. I hate cooked vegetables (raw are still okay, but ultimately depends on the vegetables), and my grandfather just threw too many into my bowl during lunch. I had no choice but to force myself to eat them, and my stomach having touched cooked vegetables for like God know how long, it sort of erupted and I had to run off to the kitchen and vomit it out, lol. Just tastes so bad. Now I remember why I hated vegetables since I was a kid. ^_^

The ROMs for Pokémon Diamond and Pearl are out, yay. I would like to buy a real DS and a real cartridge to play (I mean, c'mon, battling online and trading throughout the world, are you kidding?), but damn, it's just way out of my budget. Maybe I can convince my parents to allow me to buy, but meh, chances are sure low. Then again, I already feel embarrassed buying Pokémon Adventures manga, forget about DS games. *shifty eyes*

I've confirmed that two of my six team slots are going to Infernape and Staraptor. Both have awesome attack and speed, sweepers for the win! :D

In My Country There Is Problem

This post is not meant to be racist, and is merely a joke. But if you are unable to take it, close this window.

I found Borat's In My Country There Is Problem song quite nice, so I'm gonna try and edit the lyrics to a more Singapore-like version. :P

In my country there is problem
And that problem is resource
We have to import nature resources
Because Singapore has none

Throw the resource down the well
So my country can be free
We must make energy easy
Then we have a big party

In my country there is problem
And that problem is the bangla
They pollute the beautiful scenery
And they refuse to get out of your sight

Throw the bangla down the HDB
So my country can be free
You must grab him by his horns
Then we have a big party

If you see the bangla coming
You must be careful of his teeth
You must grab him by his money
And I tell you what to do

Throw the bangla down the HDB
Throw the bangla down the HDB
So my country can be free
So my country can be free
You must grab him by his horns
You must grab him by his horns
Then we have a big party
Then we have a big party

Throw the bangla down the HDB
Throw the bangla down the HDB!!
So my country can be free
So my country can be free!!
You must grab him by his horns
You must grab him by his horns!!
Then we have a big party!!

One More School Day!!

Woke up at 6am for game designing, even though school starts at 8.30am, lol. I'm such a busy game designer (as if :P). :P

First period was English. Teacher didn't come, so the ex-librarian filled in and gave us Ten-Years-Series to do. Reminds you of a certain #*&*%#@(#% Physics relief teacher, don't you? However, unlike our Physics teacher, our English teacher actually goes through with us our Ten-Years-Series, so we have no choice but to do it. Was refering to the answer sheet (though I didn't copy, just regretting why my answer was so different from the answer sheet :P). Didn't do summary though, too lazy. Finished and went to sleep, lol. Ephraim came shortly after. Woke up; dared not sleep any more.

While waiting for form teacher to come, I took out my two Maths files from the cupboard behind and started filing. Teacher came and gave out A. Maths test paper. I asked Vernon when the A. Maths test today is going to be, and he told me during E. Maths period, so I thought this one was just a practice, lol. So while I was still merrily and cheerfully filing those piles of worksheet, the classroom turned silence and everyone, even Yoshida, started writing with a feverish mood. Then the teacher came and told me to keep my files and file later. I was still, "Isn't this just a practice paper? Why so serious?" Took a while for dense me to understand the situation, rofl. XD

Paper, consisting of two questions, was quite tricky. Wasn't sure I got the first one correct. Took me a while to solve the second one, as I misunderstood the question, lol. Teacher was staring at Yoshida and I as if we were going to cheat (after all, I talked to him during the start of the test, still not knowing it's a test XD). Duration was actually 20 minutes, yet the class took much longer than that. Teacher was like, "It's only two questions. How can you take so slow?" I quietly replied (so that only Yoshida can hear), "But you'll take longer." or something like that. Yoshida agrees with me.

Then Yoshida went through his file, looking for crap and junk to toss, and he found a shitty survey we did for some stupid stress-handling blah blah crap, in which he drew a crab on the blank side ("crab" sounds like "crap", which he is implying what that piece of paper is. Crap.). He crumpled it, and I offered, from all the way at the back of the class, to throw it into the dust bin, all the way at the front of the class. So I was like, "FIRE IN THE HOLE!" and I threw it with all my might. #$%@ing hell, hit the girl in front on the head. >_< href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ne8kMxz4a80">I did one with Stefan and Timmy before. And guess what? It has to be on National Education. That is downright insulting to the game designers. DOWNRIGHT INSULTING!! And to add, we have to use the Korean MMORPG Granado Espada. #$&@ing hell, who the #$%@ can remember a game with such a name. I think they are better off marketing it under the name 'Sword of the New World'. And then, the teacher shows an example.



WHAT THE #$%@ING HELL!? THIS IS FROM WORLD OF WARCRAFT!!

If you tell me that Azeroth is from the game (eh, what's the name again?) Granado Espada, I'm gonna slap your face.

He only showed the first one, but damn, was it funny! JASMINE, MARRY ME!! XDXDXD

Then again, only people who play WoW would understand the second one, and I don't even think the third one is funny. "Moonglade, where's that?" XD

Then some stupid cock about life science that I don't give a damn about. Makes me #$%@ing glad I don't take biology.

Again, our dear Disclipline Master takes his own sweet time in dismissing the class. We spent like 10 minutes waiting to get the hell out of the hall. Left at 2.10, went to class to take our bags, and spent 10 minutes looking for where the heck she is. Starting at the second floor, we crossed the corridor (where 4R1 and 4R3 are having their lessons), climbed up to the third floor, looked around the labs, and then found a female classmate (I think she wanted to go to the toilet) telling us chemistry is in first floor. Have no idea why the vice principal and some male teacher would be there.

We greeted them, but no, the chemistry teacher has to go all, "I'm sure you can do better than that", like the damn dear principal who goes, "Morning, school. I'm sure you can do better than that. Morning, school. Morning, school. Morning, school. Morning, school. ..." everyday. Zzzzzz. Might as well "Good afternoon, Alvin's parents". *shifty eyes* Alvin and the vice-principal same size anyway, hard to believe that they aren't related. So while we are doing our task (mixing four unknown solutions to determine which solution is which. Yay, how fun *rolls eyes*), they just have to walk around and look at what we are doing. Irritating, just like a pair of flies flying around you. Irritating.

Just because the class settled down at about 2.25pm means we have to be dismissed at 3.25pm? What the #$%@, this is #$%@ing injustice. It's not even like we have a say in when the disclipline master sets us off from assembly. She thinks we like to sit around in the hall boringly with nothing to do when we are supposed to head off to chemistry? And it just has to rain three minutes before she damn releases us. I'm glad I heard the thunderstorms, treated them as a warning and called my father.

Though if would be better if he drove his car to the school to fetch me instead of his lorry/truck (depending on whether you study American English or British English).

Boredom In School

More blog entries about school life, yay!

Physics test was easy, yet difficult at the same time. It's those easy questions that you will simply take less than three seconds to answer, but it will make you go, "Eh? That's it? Is there more to it? Am I missing something?", and somehow, mysteriously, you are just plain unsatisfied with your answer. You believe that there is always something wrong with your answer, but you just do not know what exactly is wrong with your answer. Yup, that is what the Physics test is all about. Nmaa, who cares about it anyway? I've given it my best. :)

Physical Education was next. Again, we are having NAPFA test. The girls went ahead first with their inclined pull up, so us guys went to the basketball court to play soccer, lol. Gotta say it wasn't really a good game, compared to previous weeks. Of course, my definition of a good game is one with a lot of excitement and cheering, only obtainable after someone (whether your team or theirs) scores a goal. And no goal was scored today. -_-

Finally, it is our turn to do pull ups. For someone who could not even do one last year (then again, that stupid teacher we got last year made me do the highest one. What fucking injustice... *I'm still pissed off about it.*), I was rather delighted at my performance today, lol. Managed to get five out of the second highest bar, compared to an average (at least, according to my estimations) of four. Actually I could continue after five, but I just got bored and decided to stop, lol. Five is enough for me anyway, no point showing off to the girls, right? (XD 180 degrees change of attitude from last week XD) Vernon got four, not bad (then again, it's quite good, after hearing what he said before PE about how he's going to flunk it and how he has been using the window grille or something in his house and practicing pull up with it, encurring the wrath of his mother XD). Yoshida got only one, haha, loser. XD His excuse: "I can't be bothered to do. Just did one so as to not disappoint the teacher." Jovian and Ephraim both got eight, the highest. My conclusion is that short people have more impact when doing pull up and thus are stronger. So if you want to be strong, be short. Of course, that's to disturb shorty Ephraim. Yuhaimi was pretty bad too, and Faizal's facial expression was as if he was suffering from serious constipation (everyone laughed at him of course, and some, like Cheng Liang, even went as far as doing an impression of him). From this, I concluded that eating pork gives you muscles and strength!! :O Speaking of impression, I was crouching down and trying to reach for the tallest bar, my hand swinging wildly in the air unable to touch it, shouting "Ephraim impression!" XD

Physics SPA next. Last time, we designed an experiment to find out whether increasing the θ decreases the time taken for the marble to roll down:



Yoshida was clearly regreting why he added the instruction 'Plot a graph by using results' lol. XD

So, after finishing the rather easy task, it was play time, while the teacher busies himself marking test scripts. XD

I went to Vernon's table, and Ephraim, Vernon and I combined our stuff and make one gigantic structure for the marbles (we have three, but subsequently lost one :P) to roll down. Yoshida and Faizal joined in later, making modifications and making it better generally. The bucket at the end was actually for litter, lol. But because the marble always roll with such intensity that it slides out of the table and is a pain in the ass to retrieve (it was even worse before I went to my table and grab the three metre rules I was using for my experiment. The marble dropped into the sink and bounces bounces bounces, creating a lot of noise). Faizal even got a ping pong ball to roll down, but unfortunately, the gap between the top plank and bottom plank is too narrow for the large ping pong ball to roll through. We made modifications later too. It is sad that the teacher suddenly shouting "Oi! What are you all doing behind?!" causes us to quickly demolish it. I wanted to take a photo. :(

Anyway, let's draw a simple diagram of it.



So while we demolish our beautiful structure and return the planks, rulers and other stuff, Cheng Liang has started yet another project. I took a photo lol.



English was after recess. Had a composition writing test. Two topic questions were 'what do you enjoy doing most?' and 'fashion'. Oh my god, worse topics ever, man. Of course, knowing no shit about fashion, I wrote the first question. Crapping about computer gaming and watching anime, lol. I'm prepared to recieve a shitty score for this.

Double Maths period was next. Shearing is difficult, man... Not this shearing, this shearing. Went to do the A. Maths worksheet the teacher gave last time immediately after I finished the shearing worksheet lol.

Chemistry was plain boring, nothing else to say. Was doing the A. Maths worksheet until I got stuck on differentiation. Shitty hell, I should really start to memorize the formulae. >_<

Went to bought Pokémon Adventures manga volume 22 secretly after school lol. The ending of the Ruby and Sapphire arc is way too abrupt!! I'm not complaining about the start of the Fire Red and Leaf Green arc though. Red and Blue (the guy with Charizard) totally kick ass when they fight, lol. XD

Life Sucks?

Life just seems to suck when:
1. You could not get any positive attention of the girl you like.
2. Your internet connection keeps fucking up.

Unfortunate to say, I happen to be suffering from both.

Oh My God

Just now, I was watching Creatively Mine on TV, and damn, there was a Malay (or was it an Indian?) acting as a fairy. Oh my god...


For manga noobs, as the arrow at the bottom indicates, read from right to left. (I remember to flip a tad too late D:)

Lol, found a striking similarity between this and the Straw Hat Pirate Crew finding out that mermaids are as... old and unattractive (^_^") as Kokoro in One Piece, so I just took the manga image and edit the words. XD Indeed, I was sort of pounding on the floor like Sanji rofl. That's where I get the idea.

[Thanks to the Chinese translation of my Taiwanese version of One Piece Volume 44, the long vertical word to the left of Sogeking translates to "NOOOOOOOO!", while the two grey speech bubbles to the left of Sanji are crying sound effects.]

Sorry if this may sound racist (but then again, I am racist o.O), but I, like Sogeking, have never heard of a fairy with dark skin.

Guess I'll recount on the school assembly today, everything else seems so insignificant now.

Celebrating International Friendship Day (note that I italics 'celebrating'), so we had powerpoint presentations on various groups of students going off to different countries, for them to share their experiences and shit. (What a great way to celebrate International Friendship Day by the way.) We have a group which went to Thailand for exchange program, a group which went to New Zealand for Geography (Vernon and Ephraim are in that particular group, I might add), and another group which went to Thailand for CIP, but no, no, no, no, no, we must let our dear principal go first. Sigh... So he went on and on and on and on about India. Gee, how many of you actually bothered about that shithole? And worse of all, he has to spend 30 minutes on it. Since he's so enthusiastic about India, why not we just send him over and live there? Do all of us a favour. Morning assembly won't be filled with "Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. Morning school. etc, etc, etc.", and we can actually start lessons earlier.

Of course, our dear principal took up a lot of time, so the other groups are in a general time constraint. The second group had to skip the video, and the third group had to skip everything altogether. The dance for the first group was too long, and the dance for the second group was too short. D:

The second group did a Haka dance to which Yoshida and I were particularly looking forward to (since Vernon and Ephraim are performing). I like to purposely say it as "Halal dance" to disturb them though. :P As you may or may not know, halal means no pork, lol. XD [It means more, but I can't be bothered to elaborate] Seriously, man, it was too short. We just have them shouting (now I can understand why Wikipedia cleared up the myth that haka dance is an exclusive war dance, they are basically warcrying like Grom Hellscream from Warcraft) and punching the floor (Vernon describes it as the 'earthquake' effect).

Okay, the punching the ground was not as impressive as Luffy when he activates Gear Second in One Piece, but I suppose it will do.



Oh, I don't know how everyone can have "Like oh my god what the fuck barbecue hack, we have [insert number. I am lazy to count.] tests this week! Oh my god! Oh my god! I got to carry a pillow and a kettle and run around in panic!!" in their blog posts, and I'm "Meh, bring it.", lol. [The pillow and kettle is from the manga Doraemon. In a particular chapter, main character Nobita took those items and run around in circles in panic due to a coming test. When Doraemon asked why those particular items, Nobita answered that there was no particular reason and that he was panicking anyway. ^_^]

Edit made on 12 March 2008:



On a side note, I seem to feel like Harima Kenji of School Rumble in Episode 8 and Ni Gakki Episode 26, reluctant to go to school. Reason why? In his case, it is because of Tsukamoto Tenma. Go figure. -.-

On another side note, yay, Vegapunk Fansubs released One Piece 303. I know I'm supposed to be bothered about studying about 'O' levels and shit, but... Nmaa, forget it. XD

Unbeatable

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm unbeatable

Walking down this endless highway
Nothing but my friends beside me
We'll never give in, we'll never rest
Advanced Battle is the ultimate test

From the earth and land,
The sea and sky
They can never win
But they sure can try

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm unbeatable
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm undefeatable

From the stars and the ancient past
They come to play but they never last

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm unbeatable
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm undefeatable

You think you'll win
But soon you'll see
You may beat some
But you can't beat me!

I'm undefeatable!

There's a feeling deep inside me
And it's always there to guide me
It's in my heart and in my soul
Leading me to the ultimate goal
You can try your best this might be fun
You go down to defeat before you begun!

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm unbeatable
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm undefeatable

Every move
Each attack you choose
You think you can win
But you always lose!

Oh-oh-oh!
Advanced Battle!
I'm unbeatable!

Sports Day LOL

Long post coming. A lot to blog about today. :P

Woke up at 5.45am this morning, lol. I hate it that the alarm of my handphone is so soft. The music player function is much louder, even though they use the same music file. Ate cereal for breakfast. Just a little bit and I'm full, lol. Went out at 6.20am, and bus came just when I reached the bus stop. Talk about perfect timing. Saw Wan Ling, a schoolmate and an ex-classmate, boarded the bus later too, yeah. Saw a lot of schoolmates at Tampines Bus Interchange and Tampines MRT Station too, lol.

Reached the MRT Station at 6.35am. Had to wait 25 minutes for Wei Sheng, we promised to meet up there at 7am and go together. Took out my earphones and listened to music on my handphone for a while, then I saw Yoshida coming at 6.45am (he told me in school he wanted to take an aeroplane -_-). I decided to take the MRT with him instead, lol. Sorry, Wei Sheng! :P

So we began our 54 minutes trip to Lakeside MRT Station. Yes, 54 minutes. From the east of Singapore all the way to the west. Ho say!!

Ho say: Hokkien exclamation denoting satisfaction, or enthusiastic endorsement.


At the platform of Tampines MRT Station, I saw Sean, a primary school schoolmate, lol. I called out his name and Yoshida thought I saw Mr. ex-President of Student Councillor, lol. Sean, wearing his Pasir Ris Secondary School uniform with pride and carrying a file containing a rather huge pile of worksheets, was on his usual, daily way to school, taking the MRT all the way to Bedok (alas, all he used to need to do was just to cross the road next to his house to get to school everyday. I blame the construction of the school and the building of the temporary school elsewhere). We chatted for a while and boarded the MRT when it came. Bloody hell, it was so squishy, I had to try to push myself into the train when the signal came that the doors were closing. XD

At each and every station the train stops in, more and more of my schoolmates board the train, lol, all wanting to reach their final destination. :O At Bedok MRT Station, Sean alighted. He ignored my "Bye!" and didn't reply back. So mean. T_T

For the majority of the 54 minutes, I was leaning on the glass wall at an entrance of the train, listening to my music player, Yoshida on the other side, lol. He put his bag on the floor behind him and went all "Suspicious article! Call 999!" XD

Also during the trip, a bunch of our schoolmates (dunno them) came and stood near us. Two were armed with PlayStation Portables, and the rest were all crowded around them, lol. So we now have people standing next to the entrance, crowding around the door with attentions on two PSPs. Let's pity people trying to get in, shall we?

After the long trip of boringness, we finally reached Lakeside MRT Station. Oh gosh, the station is packed full of people, especially students from Ngee Ann and Chung Cheng. There was a long line composed of students from the two particular schools, all the way from the MRT Station to a passenger pickup point quite a distance away. Of course, the adults there seem pissed off, a mass of students appearing out of nowhere and blocking their roads, rofl.

After waiting for like 10 minutes, Yoshida and I got bored and decided to walk to Jurong Stadium instead of taking the shutter bus, which students will pack and flood, and judging from the large number of students and the little number of buses, we have to wait quite long, indeed.

So we asked the teacher for directions. Don't really know the teacher much, just remembers he teached 3R3 History last year. So he told us to walk towards the traffic light, turn left and then walk straight for 3km. Easy, no? Here's a map of our journey.


Nine blue dots in the map. I'll elaborate on them.

We first went towards the direction the teacher pointed, stopping at the MRT Station to use the toilet, lol. I also took a newspaper from someone giving them out. Nmaa, it's gonna help me combat boredom later.

Second blue dot, there was yet another mass of students from my school, waiting for the slow buses. The teacher was scolding a few students there when we arrived. Didn't know what they did, but I predicted, from what Yoshida and I were going to do, and what the teacher said, that they wanted to try walking to the stadium as well, because of boredom, lol. So we walked past fearfully, believing the teacher will started scolding us as well. Luckily he ignored us or didn't see us, so we just continued on the journey!

At the third blue square, I showed Yoshida a video of We Live In Singapura, which our Social Studies teacher showed us yersterday. Ironically, he was only interested in the song, lol.

Had to cross a road at the forth blue square. Traffic lights was slow, so I decided to jaywalk, but Yoshida jayrun instead, lol, so I followed. :P

Long stretch to fifth blue square, where we stopped at a 7-Eleven, looking around but finally deciding not to buy anything.

Crossing the road at the sixth blue square, we wondered, "How the fuck are we supposed to continue going straight?"

Seventh blue square is a downhill grassy slope where we ran downwards towards the road. Unable to go 'straight' any more after crossing the road, we decided to head right and test our luck.

At eighth blue square, we decided that we were lost. Yoshida decided to take a photo of the canal to show to the teacher that we were lost in case we were late later, and I followed, lol. Too bad I deleted the photo just now. :P Walking past Hua Yi Sec, we saw students running out. Presuming that they were running for their 2.4km, we pity them that they have to climb up staircases after exiting the school compound. We even joked about stopping them to ask for directions rofl.

Walking all the way to the final blue square, we decided that we are just fucking lost and decided to take a taxi to Jurong Stadium, pfft.

While walking, we agreed that if a taxi approaches we'll take it, instead of waiting at one spot for it (we were both vulnerable to boringness lol). Finally a taxi came and we told the driver, "Jurong Stadium". Turns out there are two Jurong Stadiums, lol, one new and one old. The new one had a swimming pool, which the taxi driver thought we wanted to go there. We corrected him by replying that there is a mosque nearby, and he immediately knew which one we were talking about. So here's the map!



Boarding the taxi, Yoshida and I were theorizing on whether the direction the teacher gave us was correct. We suspected that, but had no proof. At the first blue dot marked in the map, I realized that we were walking that way previously, as I recognized the school (funny name, eh? :P). Indeed, the teacher gave us the wrong direction! Just look at the map. It is to walk straight, turn left at traffic light and walk 3km alright, but the bugger pointed at the wrong direction.

At the second blue dot, we went across fellow schoolmates, still waiting for the shuttle bus. Pity them. :P

So we reached the stadium at last. Thanks to Yoshida for paying the taxi fare of $4.60. My financial status at that time was, well, not at its best level. ^_^"

Found places to sit at the stadium and prepared ourselves for boredom. Ephraim and Vernon joined us a while later.

Let's have a look at the respective inventory of each of us and you'll know how we combat the boredom:

Samy
Water bottle
Manga (One Piece volume 44)
Handphone
Earphones [gives music when combined with handphone]
Packet of mentos
Newspaper
Umbrella

Vernon
Manga (Bleach volume 26)
100-Plus
Potato chips
Handphone
Earphones [gives music when combined with handphone]
Umbrella [though never used]

Ephraim
Handheld fan
Handphone
Earphones [gives music when combined with handphone]
Various packets of snacks
Some chewy sweets
Binoculars
Umbrella
Bottle of orange F&N

Yoshida
Umbrella
Handphone
[and other stuff I probably have no idea about. I don't sit beside him to know of his inventory that thoroughly ;)]

Well, generally speaking, the benches at the stadium for us to sit on was, well, shitty. Flakes of benches were dropping off, and sitting on them makes your pants terribly dirty, like the look of mud and a few splints of wood. Terrible, terrible.

The weather, too, was terrible. First we had a drizzle. Next, a warm sun. Then a drizzle. And then a terribly hot sun. Freaking hell, the weather went crazy. Disabled Vernon and mine option to read manga. It either gets wet due to rain, or we had to use one hand to hold the umbrella against the sun. The temperature was extremely hot at the later part too.

Was listening to music for the majority of the boring event, and SMSing Sakura (an ex-schoolmate) too, on the other side of the stadium, now that we are in different schools, lol.

We got the hell out of there at the first chance given, even before they announced the winners. Pfft, we don't need to know that information.

And so, our party of four members, all hating to wait, decided to hike ourselves to Boon Lay MRT Station instead of taking the choked shuttle bus!!

Started the journey with four party members, Ephraim, Yoshida, Vernon and I.



The first square was a shuttle bus waiting for students to get on, presumably taking them to a MRT Station. I wanted to board it, and told the other three to hurry before others choke it full, but turns out it's only for Chung Cheng High students. -_-

Second square is where the shuttle buses for our school are. And they are plain choked. With the combination of traffic jam, Yoshida pointed out that we were walking faster than the bus, and we all laughed out loud, looking at the poor students stuck in the bus liked sardines in a tin. Then the bus started to speed up as the traffic light goes green, and Yoshida started running to be as fast as the bus, and I joined in, lol. Oh, and by the way, I just realized, we stopped chasing the bus when it turned right at a junction. Thus, the location of the square on the map is wrong. -.- It should be somewhere to the east of the first square, and the first square should be in the car park labeled 'CP' (the P is covered by the red line denoting our route though). Forgetful Samy. :P

Third square, Yuhaimi joined the party, yay! :D I started telling the others how we'll blame Yuhaimi, the 'appointed navigator', if we get lost. *shifty eyes*

Asked Yuhaimi if he is stopping at the mosque across the road for his prayers at the forth square. Turns out he wanted to take the MRT back to wherever mosque he prays in. Works well for us.

Somewhere between the forth and fifth square, I told the other party members that we can see Lakeside Primary School, which means that Lakeside MRT Station is quite close. Ephraim saw it as a Lakeside Secondary School, lol. Visibility problems. :P

At the fifth square, we stopped, not knowing where to go. Fellow schoolmates from behind caught up with us, some wanting to head to Lakeside MRT Station, some wanting to head to Boon Lay MRT Station. The Lakeside ones turned right, and Yuhaimi followed, while the Boon Lay ones, including the four of us, headed straight. Yuhaimi left the party. :(

Walking along, we saw a carpark for taxis, apparently protected. The sign says 'Protected zone. Please keep clear' with a diagram of someone holding a rifle and another person raising two hands. Yoshida suggested going in and hijack a taxi (obviously a joke), and Ephraim pointed the sign at him. Vernon adds that Yoshida would not be the one holding the rifle. Yoshida asked why there would be rifles in a carpark in the first place. Saa, who knows?

Crossing the sungei, Yuhaimi, on the other side of the road, refered to a map. I asked him for directions, but before he answered, he gave us a bye and headed into the park connector. -_-

We continued on our journey, and at long last, sees the MRT track. We believed that left leads to Boon Lay MRT Station, and right leads to Lakeside. A group of schoolmates following us headed right. We headed left, then.

Upon reaching the sixth square, Yoshida started to run and dash ahead. He then disappeared behind a pillar supporting the MRT track while we walked slowly and leisurely. Turns out he was checking how much further we had to go, and OH MY GOD. I gave a loud "WHOOOHOOO! ...is all I have to say." when I saw the long route we had to go. XD

Was a long route. Ephraim took out his handphone and started listening to the radio, lol. It was so soft we can barely hear it. Yoshida was rushing, walking alone in front of us. I decided to join him, while Vernon and Ephraim listened to the news and walked behind slowly. At the final square was a bus stop, when a bus coincidentally comes just as we approaches the bus stop. We decided to take the bus to Boon Lay MRT Station if the bus goes there, and fortunately, it does! We boarded the bus. It was a long bus, and Vernon and I were sitting at the center of the bus, lol, while Ephraim and Yoshida sat in front. We stopped at Boon Lay Bus Interchange and walked through Boon Lay MRT Station to Jurong Point.

We went to KFC for lunch, but it was full and there were no empty seats, so we went to the third floor and check out Comic Connection. There were three (or is it four?) of our female classmates having their lunches in a nearby restaurant, lol.

Anyway, we exited later, and after having a look around, went down for lunch, hoping KFC would not be that crowded. We found five classmates along the way, three of them in home T-shirts. Lol, Alvin was wearing red, so I asked him if he became a red packet. :P

Long queue at KFC. Ephraim cut our queue lol.

I ordered a two-piece chicken meal, crispy, coleshaw change to whipped potato, pepsi change to medium. Vernon ordered a two-piece chicken meal, crispy, coleshaw change to whipped potato. Yoshida ordered zinger burger, large whipped potato and regular pepsi. Ephraim ordered fish burger, cheese fries and regular pepsi.

We sat down and started eating. Ephraim was so sad, his fish burger takes time, so he's just plainly eating his cheese fries. Yoshida ate damn fast. Vernon, as usual, started with side dish first rather than the main course. Ephraim's burger came. He took a bite, then just ate the piece of fish inside and threw away the rest of his burger and half of his cheese fries. Vernon also threw his chicken skin away. So bad, leave leftovers, Sanji's not going to be very happy. *shifty eyes*

Yoshida left immediately after he finished. Talk about anti-social. Ephraim left a while later, saying that his parents SMSed him to hurry up and get his ass home. Vernon and I then left a while later, when we finished.

It was raining already when we left Jurong Point. The two of us took an MRT and headed back to the east.

I finished my pepsi (from KFC one) aboard the MRT while waiting for it to depart Boon Lay MRT Station, so I exited the train and looked around for a bin, but cannot find one, so just put it beside a pillar. Sorry, no choice. :P

We sat down and I started listening to music on my handphone, while Vernon SMSed his friends. I showed him We Live In Singapura, and then he asked me to send it to him via Bluetooth lol. Then I showed him the audio clip of RK House No Pork, lol.

While showing him We Live In Singapura, we reached the part when in the MRT, everyone crowds near the entrance and no one stands in the middle:




And guess what, the situation in the MRT where we are travelling in is exactly the same!! Roflmao.

Near the end of the journey, two Muslims came in. One sat down beside me, and I immediately stood up, so the second one took my seat and sat beside Vernon. Vernon SMSed me (despite us being less than a metre away): "So kind ah... They also not needy" I replied: "No, It's just that I don't want to sit next to a malay. You should stand up too, honestly. By the way, why are we SMSing each other when we are just less than a metre away? 8-)" Lol.

They alighted before us and I took my seat back.

I alighted at Tampines, while Vernon proceeded to Pasir Ris.

End of post. Ta-dah!

the WORLD!

Within the spreading darkness, we exchanged vows of revolution
An evil flower that sprouted because it was loved
Because I can't let anyone interfere
With everything that'll come about from now on

The future that the fruit told me of
The city that has forgotten reasoning
The present time is distorted black
Dreams, turn into ideals

Why? Am I a broken Messiah?
Everyone wished for a "finale"...

Within the spreading darkness, we exchanged vows of revolution
An evil flower that sprouted because it was loved
I can't let anyone interfere
With everything that'll come about from now on

Someday, I'll show you
A shining sky

Why? Am I a broken Messiah?
Everyone dreamt of a "paradise"...

Within the spreading darkness, we exchanged vows of revolution
An evil flower that sprouted because it was loved
I can't let anyone interfere
With everything that’ll come about from now on

Someday, I'll show you
A shining world

Feel So Terrible

You see her, you can't touch her.
You hear her, you can't hold her.
You want her, you can't have her.
You want to, but she won't let you.

I feel so fucking terrible I feel like doing nothing but just screaming out loud and punching punchbags.

Don't fucking want to smoke cigarettes, and can't be fucked to go downstairs to buy beer. I guess listening to The World (Death Note opening 1) at a loud volume works... How long? I can't say. Damn.

But first, let's cover the school day first. I suppose...

First period was P.E. Was expecting 2.4km run, but nope, we are doing sit-ups. The ladies went first, so us guys were playing soccer in the quadrangle instead. Nothing much memorable about it. Then it's time for us to do. Yoshida, whom I partnered with, did a 39. I went all out, aware that the girls were looking, which is particularly why, to admit it. God damn my fucking weak body, I tired out after 25, fucking shit. Reached 30 and was at the peak. Blasted bastard. Cheated and added a 1 while only able to do halfway. 31, just the passing mark. Fuck my weak body. So when I went to tell the teacher my score, holy fucking shit, everyone has 40+ and some even 50! God damn it, why am I so physically weak? Why will she think of me? Such a weakling who couldn't even do 40 or 50? Why? Why? GOD DAMN IT!!

Back to our soccer game. Knowing that she's looking at the game, I went all out, trying to impress her, knowing that I rather suck in soccer (or any game in particular, in fact). Went charging throughout the whole game, giving no damn to safety. So I kicked Dao Hsen's ankle trying to get the ball from him, knocked Jovian down trying to get the ball from him, collide into Wei Sheng, both of us trying to get the ball from an opponent. God damn it, if only I could be good at soccer. God damn it! On another tackle, I ran to Jovian and he rammed the ball hard, trying to shoot or pass (can't tell). Deflect it with my knee, so it went up into the air a few good metres. Now my knee's injured. Fucking shit. Why the fuck do I suck at sport so much? Why the fuck!?

Geography was, as usual, boring. I was reading a book of Chinese compositions the Chinese teacher lent the class yersterday. English was boring too, but no choice. After recess, Maths was equally boring. I finished the worksheet in like 40 minutes, and the teacher has to spend 2 hours going through just the examples. Zzzzzz.

So we next went to Physics. Rearranging contents in our files and determining whether we have any lost worksheets. We were supposed to write a 'LOST' in our content page if we lost worksheets, but us smart alecs instead went to photocopy from each other. Imagine the whole class of around thirty squeezing into one corner, where the photocopy machine was placed next to a wall. Took a damn long time, so Vernon and I decided to just get the one we both don't have and photocopy from each other outside.

By the way, the four worksheets I am missing are numbered one, four, eight and nine. 1489, wonder if it will come out for 4D tonight?

After getting the shit done, we went down to KFC to have lunch. Both of us was chatting rather cheerfully while eating, when all of a sudden, she came in, together with some guy I have no complete idea about, as well as a female classmate. Both of us turned silent immediately. It's as if we know what the other feels, both of us liking her and knowing that each other likes her and all. I suddenly lost my appetite and couldn't stand eating there any more. Vernon ate especially fast (for someone who usually takes twice the amount of time eating compared to a normal person), and ended up eating faster than me. I didn't touch the piece of chicken skin Vernon left, either, as I usually do (he doesn't like chicken skins for some reason, and I, after watching Sanji's past from One Piece where he and Zeff almost starved to hunger, didn't want to leave any leftovers [Read Wikipedia: He also dislikes leftovers immensely and will show great anger to those who leave them.]). So we just picked up our bags and left the restaurant in silence. Exiting, the guy whom I dunno (Vernon and him know each other though) shouted to Vernon bye, calling him 'hentai bastard', in front of her some more. I'm thoroughly impressed with Vernon's tolerance, merely pointing a middle finger. I'd have picked up a chair and tried to smash it into his skull if it were me.

Wonder if he's feeling as terrible as me now?

A mighty pain to love it is,
And 'tis a pain that pain to miss;
But of all pains, the greatest pain
It is to love, but love in vain.

Pokémon Contest Team

In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald, there are Pokémon Contests that test talent rather than power. After getting the seven Silver Symbols from the Battle Frontier in Pokémon Emerald, I decided to try my hands at contests, lol.

After forming an elite team, pwning the Master Ranks of the Lilycove Contest and getting paintings of my Pokémon in the second floor of the Lilycove Museum, I decided to post about my team here, lol.

Format:
Type of contest participates in - Name - Nature @ Item it is holding
Attack - Type
Attack - Type
Attack - Type
Attack - Type


Cool - Swellow - Adamant nature @ Red Scarf
Quick Attack - Cool
Focus Energy - Cool
Double Team - Cool
Aerial Ace - Cool



Swellow is rather good. When it goes first in the second round due to being the coolest and winning the first round, use Double Team to make itself vulnerable against others. Then, follow up with a Quick Attack as a combo, earning seven hearts and granting the ability to go first next turn. After that, do an Aerial Ace, which gives six hearts if done first (so you get seven, together with the heart the crowd gives). Focus Energy is there to jam noobs if you go last. All the attacks are cool and can earn a bonus heart from the crowd, and further more, these are attacks that Swellow can learn naturally, although since it learns Aerial Ace in level 38, you have to train it for a while if you can't be bothered to use the TM to teach it Aerial Ace.

Beauty - Milotic - Modest @ Blue Scarf
Dive - Beauty
Hail - Beauty
Surf - Beauty
Ice Beam - Beauty



Trust me, it isn't worth it to spend such a long time finding a Feebas just to use a Milotic for a contest. Alas, we don't get it as easy as Ruby in Pokémon Adventures, who repeatedly catch a Feebas and release it (although I think that's the same Feebas, and Feebas likes Ruby, so it's just biting his rod purposely, despite being released before). This Pokémon is the only one which gives me trouble in the Master Rank, it's so damn hard to use. I don't recommend using a Milotic, unless you have a pwnage moveset or a really pwnage luck. Anyway, it used to have a Rain Dance, but since it always screw up, I replaced it with Dive. And I read that Dive and Surf can be used as a contest combo, and Surf and Dive can be used as yet another combo, I thought that I can just Surf and Dive and Surf and Dive and Surf to make one bunch of combos. It was a mistake. -.- Hail is for jamming, and I wonder why I taught it Ice Beam.

If you want a Beauty Pokémon, take Blaziken. Seriously, it rocks. Before I created a team solely for Contest purposes, in my previous games, I signed up my battling team for contests, and my Blaziken is the only one capable of getting its painting on the museum. Imagine how pwnage you would be if you made a Blaziken specifically for contests (gotta watch out for its nature though). But damn, a Swampert is much better for conquering the Battle Frontier.


Cute - Relicanth - Hasty @ Pink Scarf
Water Gun - Cute
Facade - Cute
Yawn - Cute
Rain Dance - Tough



Gosh, who would have imagined a Relicanth as being cute? But 'Relicanth Really Can'! (lol, that's the name of an anime episode) Rain Dance and Water Gun go as a combo, with Water Gun giving at least 9 hearts (depending on the mood of the crowd). Rain Dance doesn't make the crowd go all "What the fuck is this noob doing?" too, unlike in Beauty contests. >_> Yawn is a good move if you go first. Go like, "Oi, noobs, shut up." and they immediately shut up. Too bad it isn't a 100% chance that they will 'shut up', or I'll have spammed Yawn. XD Facade is there when you get last, as a sort of last resort.

Tough and Smart - Banette - Calm @ Green Scarf
Faint Attack - Smart
Spite - Tough
Curse - Tough
Destiny Bond - Smart



I initially only wanted Banette to take part in only Smart contests (thus the Green Scarf), but it is so fucking pwnage that I just have to sign it up for Tough contests too (the last one, and I'm lazy to get a new Pokémon too). Unfortunately, it ate too much Pokéblock to power up its smartness that I could not max its toughness too, so it only has a Green Scarf. Freaking hell, its moveset is just so fucking pwnage. Too bad you have to breed to make it learn Destiny Bond. Faint Attack allows it six hearts if you go first, and it always go first in the first turn because it pwned the first round. Curse gives it three hearts, and allows it to go last, and is the first attack in a combo, with the second attack being both Spite and Destiny Bond. Spite pwns if you go last, and works better with Curse due to combo and the ability to go to the last. Destiny Bond gives eight hearts, but you can't combo anymore. So, how to make it pwn? [Note, I'm not including the hearts the crowd gives in my calculation.]

1. Faint Attack (6 hearts)
2. Curse [goes last] (3 hearts - 9 hearts together)
3. Spite [six hearts since went last, and one more heart as a reward for combo] (16 hearts together)
4. Curse [goes last again] (19 hearts together)
5. Destiny Bond [eight hearts and eight more hearts for combo] (35 hearts together)

And with all these massive amounts of hearts accumulating, who the hell needs the crowd to give more hearts? Then again, I don't mind the five (or is it six?) hearts when I made the crowd go wild.

This Pokémon is pwnage.

Intruders Alert

Unknown relatives from my mother's side has come all the way from Malaysia and are now invading my house. Threat to the privacies of both my father and I, both of us who are always half-naked in house, and are now seeking protection in my bedroom, protected by a locked door to which they can always open outside with keys.

I think I have to follow Kira from Death Note and put some lead from a mechanical pencil on the hinge so I know whether anyone comes into my sacred room or not.

Of course, my bedroom is sacred, like Zell's from Final Fantasy VIII.

Saradominists, Guthixians and Zamorakians

From http://www.runescape.com/varrock/letters/letters21.ws.

Oh allmighty saradomin

how do i regonice a zamorakian guthixian and saradominist from each other?

your humble folloer
su-27-87


It's hard to believe how a fellow Saradominist can have such lousy English spelling. Anyway, I'll fix it up.

Oh, almighty Saradomin

How do I recognize a Saradominist, Guthixian and Zamorakian from each other?

Your humble follower
su-27-87


Note: Zamorakians don't deserve to be first. They deserve to be last.

And Lord Saradomin's reply:

Ask them for help;
A follower of mine will offer assistance instantly, for they are pure of heart and know the glory of performing good deeds in my name.
A cursed Zamorakian will likely call you a noob and laugh in your face, for they hold all life in contempt.
A Guthixian will likely be consumed by an inner turmoil as they struggle to decide whether helping you will be changing the balance of things too much...

Long Time No Blog

Sorry to disappoint the majority of my adversaries, antagonists, archenemys, backbiters, betrayers, contenders, defamers, defilers, enemies, foes, opponents, rivals, slanderers, traitors and villain, but just because I have not blogged for approximately one week does not mean that I am dead.

I have lost almost most of my interest in blogging. Sure, I may blog once in a blue moon when I feel like doing so, but meh, I doubt anyone read my blog anyway.

School is getting more and more boring with each passing second, and I was unfortunately wrong to believe that it had already exceeded the extreme point of boringness (yes, there is such a word) and could not get any more boring. My love life seems to be crumbling as my chance of success seems to decrease steadily and frequently with each passing second. Still having difficulty understanding why girls can be so cruel.

The subbed version of Digimon Savers episode 48 (the last episode) is still not out yet. Sigh. The suspension is killing me.

Addicted to reading Pokémon Adventures nowadays. I've went on and bought two volumes in two days, and the books are not cheap at all. Finished reading volume 16. Can't wait to get my hands on 17, but there's still the economical factor to consider.

Bet I flunked today's Chinese oral test. One bunch of words in the passage are words I have never come upon in my life, and naturally has no freaking idea how to read those fucking words. Screwed up the conversation as well with one bunch of bullshit I made and created out of thin air. I doubt even a three-year-old would accept it. Oh well, what's done is done. To quote the losers on Nugget Bridge in Pokémon Red, Blue, Yellow, Fire Red and Leaf Green when you defeated them, "I did my best. I have no regrets." It calmed me down a bit for a while, before I remembered the cruel fact, that those were excuses for their defeats. And I quoted it. Don't get the point? They were excuses for their defeats. Yup, I'm getting owned, that's that.

Still there's the English oral test to worry about, combined with the Chinese letter writing test and History test, all piled up tomorrow. Screw it, no wonder our form teacher had to waste one hour talking about stress. Don't they understand that the stress we are suffering is because of them? Pffft. And freak, that reminds me of the conversation part of the Chinese oral test. Stress due to excessive homework. Pffft.

I'm getting screwed.
