So i lied

Yes yes I know, it's not after spesh 2 yet...but I decided to recap the two exams today =]

Today, woke up at 6.30, read motivational note I wrote to myself the night before. "Do your best, it's not regretting anything that counts" -> huray for mediocrity! XD

And mediocre it was. English was ahem...not that cool. I wrote about 4 pages 1 paragraph each for text response and language analysis (HOMG HOMOSUPERSAYAIN ^_^) but only about 3 or a little under for context. And alot of it was...incoherent. Yeah, I failed bad >_>" I found it quite saddening that my entire year of striving for awesomeness in this context that I actually liked had to end with such a wet firecracker of a bang =[ But I guess there's not much point worry about it now ^^

Anyway, inspired by viv's blog, I also decided to find a picture that embodied my attitude towards the coming exams.

Gah, right, Spesh Exam. Well, iuno about you other schools, but us MHS kids looked upon this spesh exam as Darth Vader might look upon ...an ewok....from the Death Star. Personally being a relatively average MHS kid, after reading it, I simultaneously realised that the exam was aceable and that it was likely I would make some noobzor mistake and again the elusive 100% would slip through my fingers =="

So I did the stupid exam, and finally managed to convince myself I had a chance of aceing...and then I walked into the happy group of asian kids that I call friends and all hope went out the window =_=. Lost two marks...or three if they don't count consequentials. Cursed negative sign...if only my hand had slipped huh =p

Anyway, that's it from me for now =] Good job everybody ^__^ VCE kids, just think; no more english...EVER!! BWAHAHAA!

One Down, Eight to go =]

So I had that Chinese oral today that I've been dreading ever since the pro-er Chinese people went through theirs last year =_= Surprised at how many MHS boys do Chinese, never knew there were so many in year 12 haha. Well I guess it went passably, but you never know with these funny emotionless examiners >_>"

In case of you guys are having a little bit of trouble filling your daily procrastination quota…

Ways to procrastinate before exams:
Play piano

Teach somebody how to play Blackjack

Subsequently lose to said pupil in Blackjack

Play Counter Strike. Feel epic for flashbanging like four bots in five minutes

Place a trampoline near the telephone in case people feel the need to bounce while talking.

Do the nut bush on aforementioned trampoline.

Go on facebook

Move every appliance in your kitchen to a new spot. Just because. (Actually the microwave was dominating the preparation area, made the entire space seem closed off from the rest of the room!)

Play “The Space Game” until eyes feel heavy (http://www.candystand.com/play/the-space-game)

Get a blood nose and feel proud that the fragility of your body is likely inversely proportional to how smart you’ve become during this year

Attend a birthday party

Walk in circles reading Chinese notes and looking up words in a Chinese dictionary

Go to Chinese Oral

Read manga

Listen to my music ! ^__^ I bet barely anyone knows theres about 30 songs in the ninja on the left XD

Get stuck behind a tram on a single lane road

Drive on a freeway

Eat grapes

Play Halo 1 – Keyes on Legendary. Complete in under 25 minutes.

Stare at a spider web in the garden for 10 minutes

Tetris

Ponder the meaning of life

Watch Family Guy

Exercise

FINALLY write an invite list for a certain belated event – hows a BBQ? ^__^
--------------------------------------------------
If none of this works for you, maybe it’s time you started studying =] By the way, if you didn’t notice, these are all things I myself have done over the weekend haha.

This is probably last post until after spesh 2. Good luck everybody! Happy nerding! XD Remember, even though it hurts now, it'll be worth it in the end ^^

Fain would we linger...



But certain teachers might not be eager to keep us after this morning (DID YOU SEE THAT HUNGY ! I DID THE TITLE-BLOG THING TOO! ^_^). I'm really going to miss it in about four weeks. I think its kind of sad I feel I'm going to look forward to going to school for exams, just so I can be in the place a few more times ^^"

Last official day today (for anyone who's interested in wagging exams) =] Ran around being a bit of a camwhore, trying to grab as many memories as possible. Made a few, probably lost a few too (little vincent dammit where were you! ;_;). The final assembly was awesome, will put youtube link if I can find one. Anyway I was going to upload a couple photos from today, and try a few more on fb later ^^

Time Flies


So it seems like its only been a little while since I last blogged, but looking at the dates it seems my maximum four days for non-blogging are already over >< So sorry haha

Firstly, christmas is coming and I want a rocket ^__^

In other news, it's last day of school tomorrow and I'm feeling quite nostalgic. It's funny that goodbyes often bring out the best emotions in people =] After tomorrow's rushed two periods of shirt signing, Mr Wood trying to find all the pictures of Muqi in and around his office, and the final assembly, all us kids will be off to our little study hermitages to bring back good results for the school.

Time. I wish there was more of it. Even just now, as I realised the length of time between my blogs I lamented its loss. Those hours I spent not blogging is time I will now never be able to spend with you =[ Isn't it tragic? XD

But really, time is a terrible thing. It always seems to sneak by when things are going good, and when you realise it's there, your fun is ruined (much like some of the shifty kids in dodgeball today, I totally suck at that game ><). It's bit hard to treasure it when, so young, we have so much of it left. Then again, it's a total pain in the butt when you're trying not to fall asleep in class >_>"

I want a timeturner, like in Harry Potter. Someone was telling me that you really can go back in time and change things without destroying the universe, but I was kind of zoned out and didn't really understand. Maybe if I ever get a time machine I will hit myself for not paying as much attention.

I guess in some ways I do want to go back in time. Back to the familiar faces and places in year 7. Just to relive all the things over again. Not to say I wouldn't try to change some of the things hahah, but what can you do? (except build a time machine? XD). I suppose, like I think many are, I'm scared of what the future holds. I want to cling to the familiar, what I'm used to and comfortable with. Can't really say I'm not that kind of person =_=
However I can't go back, and I guess it'll be quite pathetic if I keep trying to live in the past.

So I'll embrace the future with a full tilt rugby tackle. Next post I'll see if I can write down some plans for post exams, so you can all bag me and nag me until I do them ^__^

Anyway, if you cbs reading this post, here is what i bsed in summarised form:
I want a rocket.
I want time.
I hate losing time.
Gimme a timeturner.
Insert indecisive space filler
Steve has spoken =D

Blah and lastly to any MHS boys reading this, thanks, it's been a great three/four years with you guys ^^

Blup



It's weird how you feel lazy at the time where hard work counts the most =_=

The tree outside my window really needs to be destroyed. It ruins my view of the park =[

Nerding is taking its toll, droopy eyelids are now the norm. I hope this is worth the trouble =p

Ah well, not long to go! Jia you everyone ^^

SAC-less



[I have spent about 30min each day on the above website winning money in Texas Holdem Poker. My daily dose of probability revision XD]


Hallo Hallo! ^___^ Ok so today Mhs kids had our last english SAC. EXCELLENT? I KNOW YEAH XD

Anyway yes, now that they're over though I've kind of started thinking about leaving school and whatnot. Have to say though, though it's going to be a bit sad, I'll make sure I work harder to keep old friends =] AFTER EXAMS PARTY OK GUYS ^^

*Sigh* so yes. The year is coming to a close. The curtain is falling. The final die is about to be cast...

I sound so emoy hahah XD Come on guys, this is going to be AWESOME XD Massive party time after exams, and then get to go to a whole new part of your life in uni ^_^ Sure you can be a little sad.. but I think in this case good outweighs bad =] It's not like we can't all stay in touch after school, what with this wonderful internet and all XD

I think it's not really the end. It's the start of something awesome =] Remember old friends, but don't forget to un-sad yourself for long enough to make new friends alright? XD

"Those who only look to the past are certain to miss the future"


SO ANYWAY I FINALLY PUT NEW MUSIC LIST! THERES LIKE 30 SONGS YEAH SO YOU ALL WON'T GET BORED WITH THAT ANY TIME SOON ^^

ALSO! I've recently discovered the tiny mindless bitesized flash games from http://www.ferryhalim.com/orisinal. They're pretty simple, but it's good work, and the music is very nice ^__^ Respect for anyone who can get above 6k on the umbrella car jumping game =]

Recently I have rediscovered my love for the Pokemon theme song. Good on you balwyn people for playing it on muckup day XD

Also started new anime (which is kind of not cool in the middle of nerdtime), its called Soul Eater ^^

Kind of want to watch 500 days of Summer and Up. Must also watch Friends, BigBang theory and Scrubs after this is all over =p

And yes, sorry bit late between posts, last two SACs were a pain in the bum =[

Study hard guys, and good luck!! Final exams around the corner =]

>P.S. 10 points if you can guess where the Jimmy Cliff song comes from ^^

Notice


> Four new songs on the ipod over on the left, because somebody seems to think they're not enough already >3 Only four more though, >_< sorry! I will find more when I have time later ! ^__^ If you really really have time though, I guess can go look for Madasun - Walking on Water.

> Last night was lol. 70 pages of Mylifeisaverage and 0 work done XD. Fruit of my labour is 4 pages of copy pasted awesomeness ^_^

>·For example:
Today, I was thinking about the expression 'revenge is a dish best served cold'. Then I considered that 'revenge is sweet'. I've come to the conclusion that revenge is ice cream. MLIA
