The whole week was practically wasted. Decided to stay at home most of the time. No mood to go out. Declined my friends offer to play LAN, because I dun realli like LAN. Another group of friend asked me to play badminton, and I declined again.
A lot of catching up for me to do for the week. I was not performing well for the last term. Some teachers are dissapointed me, because they expect A LOT from me. But seriously I think what is there to be expected from people like me.
Used most of the long weekends for PW. It's quite relieving that my group has touched on a lot of things over the meetings that I think we are progressing well. My PW group rockz! I am not saying that PW is pleasant, because it sucks and pointless. But still it is quite fun through the process. Patrick Lim also wouldn't get to know me if it were not for PW. So PW still rocks to a certain extent. (what am I saying...!?)
NDP celebration in AJ is damn spastic! AJ couldn't come up with any fun activities that could at least make up for the already dull school life. If it was not for the friends that I have in AJ, I would've moved to AC after the first 3 months. First we watched "Singapore Gaga", which was quite spastic but humorous. The "1 dollar" song became quite contagious, because it is quite catchy, easy-to-sing-along and amusing.
Then we had picnic at AJ square. We had a fun time together with the teachers. Ate 5 durians later(my best record) and then suffered miserably later. Felt a piercing headache, like my soul slowly drifting away from me, draining away happiness and hope, leaving me in a state of extreme depression and confusion(headache). If not for the herbal tea I drank a few hours later, I would have died, leaving an empty, souless shell devoid of life, wandering aimlessly on the face of the earth. I remember I fell horribly sick after eating 3 durians a few years ago, yet my passion for durians still remains.
I am so pissed that the NDP celebration is such a fluke, because there is no march pass and NO DANCE!!! I have been carefully observing the dance steps and rythm during my MRT rides, sometimes even dance along, despite public scrutiny, anticipating that when the moment comes, I would have a headstart. And now, no dance. wtf! ugh!
But still, I find this year's NDP theme song very nice. Inspirational and heart-warming. Speaking of which, Avril and Jie Sin's National Day Song they composed had won first prize. It was aired with pride in the auditorium by the dearly-loved Clement Cheng. Everyone gawked, with bated breath and wide eyes, trembling with awe as the heavenly voice and tune seeps into their troubled beings, instanteneously giving them renewed joy and hope. (at least I think they did). .... ok fine! I exaggerate.... But still I love the song. If only I can replay the song afer I ate the durians, my soul will stilll be intact.
Did not go to school on thursday and friday because we went to NUS and Biopolis to attend lectures. The theme is "100 years of physics", following einstein's discovery of relativity. Went with weicheng, howard, william and a few others. 6 lectures to be covered in a day, each last for about 1h. Some lectures are useless, because it is diccicult to understand and too complex for simple-minded people like me. But there are intereting lectures which are impressive.
I love cosmology lectures. We had 2 on thursday. It is so mysterious and interesting. Most of them had been covered in the RJ lectures, so it is not really new to me. But some parts of quantum physics are still new to me, particularly the formation of black holes due to whatever-shit of space and time. I love the talk called "how to make time machines". There's a part about how black holes can be used to make wormholes, which are then used to make time machines, with the use of supernova stars from distant galaxies. There's even a cute scientific term called "spaghettification" which involves a person being sucked through a nanometer-scale diameter wormhole and stretched apart due to difference in gravity.
The catered foods are damn nice. The lectures are interesting and we get to skip school (and PE) with valid reasons. But still it ends at 6+ on both days. The "1 dollar" song epidemic is still fast-spreading. We kept singing together aloud in-between lectures.
While I was away from school, news came that the japanese students from the exchange-programme have joined my class on Friday. I was (wtf)x99-ing for hours later after that. I would die for the chance to at least communicate with them. I have been bugging the councillors to send them to our class, and when they finally did, I was not there. curses!
AJ sucks...
