Boys Like Girls - The Great Escape

Paper bags and plastic hearts
All belonging to shopping carts
It's goodbye
But we got one more night
Let's get drunk and ride around
And make peace with an empty town
We can make it right

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
'Cause we are finally free tonight

Tonight will change our lives
It's so good to be by your side
And we'll cry
We won't give up the fight
We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs
They'll think its just 'cause we're young
We'll feel so alive

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
'Cause we are finally free tonight

All of the wasted time
The hours that were left behind
The answers that we'll never find
They don't mean a thing tonight

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
'Cause we are finally free tonight

YES! I made it to sec 4, passing FIVE subjects!! YAY!!! I'm so happy, but must really work hard, L1R5 33 points lehz.. this holidays will be mainly work, work, work and MORE WORK. Maybe a little bit of enjoyment but not too much lohz..

I PASSED:

English
Chinese
Biology
Add. Maths
E Maths

Phew.. I wasn't that close to being advanced or retained any more.. thank goodness.. who knows what would have happened to me had i been retained.. really.. i could have been chased out of the house, or disowned, lots of nasty stuff.. at least i got promoted by a really wide margin. class position 13/40, level 133/394 i think..

noel tyco one.. won champion house of the year.. tyco :D chansey seemed so happy but all she do was sit there slack and scold pple.. haiz.. some pple are like tt one lohz.. ok.. going to sign off.. finally the holidays are beginning... scares me to thinking that this time nxt yr we'd be mugging for the big "O".. haiz..



sienz....



realised something.. should have SKIPPED SCHOOL today. Why, you ask? Because today morning's activity was so boliao I even felt tired when it was time to go home. While pple went to play ball games I was sitting around "supporting", or aimlessly walking around the school, or gatecrashing 3-2.. etc..

sienz man.. those who were not playing were forced to support the handball tournament.. it was so DARN boring.. i'd rather go for excursion than suffer under this shit.. however i must applaud the teachers for putting so much time and effort in preparing this activity, though many of us definitely found it boliao and boring like hell..

well.. noel won both floorball and handball, philippe soccer(tyco one) and i'm not too sure about frisbee though.. noel rules.. lmao.. i'm being lame and pedantic here yeah.. after the boliao activity had a talk on shares and stocks and how to make the most out of one's money.. the speaker was damn good and captured our attention (thx alice long 4 inviting him in)..

then we had harmonica performance.. quite interesting really.. the player was damn good at it! but after the thing the sec 1s kenna scolded by mr siau for "making a hell lot of a noise" in his own words.. but i left the hall halfway through their scolding session.. they really do deserve it though.. those irritating pests...

:D



back from school.. today was some post-exam activity stuff.. it was pretty boliao, but i think the teachers really did lots of effort in planning this activity for us to like kinda, "destress" and "relax"..

first thing in the morning was the CH cheer thing.. apparently LHB wanna revamp the school image, as according to panda leong, we "laugh at ourselves" especially when a cheer fails to take off.. wanna noe sth? the reason why cheers dun take off at our sch is because they are stupid, and we students noe that, so we dun wanna make a fool outta ourselves especially in front of other schools!

ok.. we learnt some new cheers.. but i dun see when will we get to use them as its unlikely sec 4s will be sent to "cou4 re4 nao4", or go help support sch atheletes.. with the o levels and all.. we'll be too busy to do so.. so it's relatively pointless..

after that had some talk on STDs.. pretty interesting but got blasted by paul ng after the talk for making a fool of ourselves in front of a guest.. wonder why so many teachers make that their bone of contention to students... us making a fool of ourselves.. by talking and not paying attention.. etc..

we had a 45 min long recess.. but, but, but, we had to compete for space with THREE, yes, THREE levels.. so we didn't have much of a recess.. not suprisingly.. what to do.. a tradeoff then.. now that sec 4s are on study break we pretty much have the whole canteen to ourselves.. then again.. it'll be our turn next year.

and then we had some entrepreneurship thing.. selected sec 2 project work groups went up to present.. one group even had the audacity to put the word "shit" in their presentation (no, no negative connontations, just the innocent words "shit disposal").. judges (DM toh, chan wm, edward khoo) were laughing away.. so were students.. LMAO

ok.. over.. then had some taekwondo performance from Singapore Taekwondo Federation.. not too bad, they looked quite agressive really.. it's a sport i wouldn't mind doing but its already a bit too late for me, isn't it?

well, that was my day.. tmr will be some games thing.. BOLIAO!








VICTOR: You are victor!

1400-years-old, he is the supreme Vampire overlord
who has been sleeping to restore his power.
Selene trusts him as she trusts no one else and
daringly awkens him when no one else believes
her discovery of the Lycan plot to destroy the
Vampires. Viktor is tall, powerful, haught, and
ostentatious. And ruthless. He had his own
daughter, Sonja, executed when it was
discovered she was secretly involved with a
lycan leader. Many have elevated him to
celebrity status. Many others wish him dead.
But Viktor has his own secrets and a dark side
no other Vampire has ever known ... he may have
been the one who began the ancient battle
between Lycans and Vampires.

Ever wish
you could be a vampire?

it's been a long weekend.. today is promotion exercise so i'm slacking at home now.. at least the sore throat/fever is almost gone.. was drinking some chinese cooling tea to help out.. it worked quite a bit, without me having to see any doctor..

got a new album on sat, it's Heavier Things by John Mayer, go get it. I like it a lot, it's quite nice.. hopefully next acquisition would be Life For Rent by Dido or Metamorphosis by Hilary Duff.. soon...

ok..



haven't blogged 4 2 days.. partly bcos i was out the whole day yesterday.. and i'm feeling damn sick now.. groggy, headache, feverish, and a sore throat to boot.. wtf is wrong with SG weather, it's like everyone is falling sick..





back.. today terence goh came to collect the homework.. he was grading them while giving us TWENTY more questions to do.. he saw something he didn't like, he'd call the poor bugger up and give him a tongue-lashing. crazy right? just so fucking insane right? he even tore up TWO scripts because he didn't like it. we wanted to take pics using some guys Sony Ericsson T610, but he heard us and stopped tearing them up. Pity right.. could have "paltoed" him by sending those pics to MOE or sth.. even upload to kazaa.. haha.. and he insulted everyone who he called out(well, the WHOLE damn class)

bloody hell.. as if he has the right to be so overbearing on his students.. wad, if he expects us to be perfect then go get some robots or sth! we're humans not machines, for fucking hell's sake. now i had regrets taking the combination i did.. should have taken double-science and went to 3-2 although i'd get ms foo.. in any case it'd still be much much much better than suffering under terence goh..

tmr is deepavali.. good..



today was d-day. it was a success. I PASSED ENGLISH!! Phew.. but it's gonna be hard for the others who didn't make it.. at least i scraped thru to make it to sec 4 next year(i think)

today terence goh again PMS.. he came into class and gave us lots of hw in return for our shit physics grades.. tmr he will do the same thing.. it's not like our fault wad.. the way he teaches is like not teaching at all lohz.. i would say even foo does a better job... and if we do those stuff wrongly we will have to redo them till we get it PERFECT. INSANE right?

tmr back to normal sch routine. at least fri is deepavali..

today got back some more results.. equally distressing..

lit elect - 25/50
ss - 8/25
chi - 63/100

today terence goh came in.. he didn't seem too angry at first, but our friend deng cause all the problems by talking.. he den began shouting at us for not working hard etc.. and demanded we sign the physics exam paper.. wonder how to even get it past my parents in the first place looking at the dismal scores.. damn it. school really sucks.

this is bad. i've got so many of my results back already.. here sums it all up

amath - 50/100
emath - 62/100
bio - 48/100
chem - 60/100
physics - 14/100
history - 40/100

damn it man.. this is not good.. i feel so tricked.. because mainly of my bio and amath.. i hate this.. all thanks to LHB who decided to make our exam papers so hard juz because he wants our rankings to go up.. that's like tantamount to disregarding our welfare in pursuit of his interests.. AT LEAST I PASSED AMATHS.

bloody hell.. never have i been in such a bad mood before.

You are Form 9, Vampire: The Undying.

"And The Vampire was all that remained on
the blood drowned creation. She attempted to
regrow life from the dead. But as she was
about to give the breath of life, she was
consumed in the flame of The Phoenix and the
cycle began again."

Some examples of the Vampire Form are Hades (Greek)
and Isis (Egyptian).
The Vampire is associated with the concept of
death, the number 9, and the element of fire.
Her sign is the eclipsed moon.

As a member of Form 9, you are a very realistic
individual. You may be a little idealistic,
but you are very grounded and down to earth.
You realize that not everything lasts, but you
savor every minute of the good times. While
you may sometimes find yourself lonely, you
have strong ties with people that will never be
broken. Vampires are the best friends to have
because they are sensible.

it's finally over. now thinking about it i may juz fuck up my history, not because it's my fault, but because thian can't mark. damn it lahz. dun intend to study for lit or emath since i've already done that AGES ago.. slacker right? official countdown only 27 hours left till freedom.. can't wait.. really itching to step out of my house..

had bfast at macs with wei zhitong, tsewei, george and wei lun.. damn lame.. zhitong screwed everything up 4 jacob liaw when he called jacob home and ask "is he there".. walao.. damn silly right? now jacob's in deep shit.. his mom suspects he didn't go to school.. hehx..

just hope i dun fail history lohz. a piece of good news. saras said i did above average for bio essay. *phew* hope my structured and MCQ dun pull me down.. bio is a subject i can and i will pass.. alice long said a lot of people got full marks for circle question in amath.. hope i'm one of them... harold finds my sch paper ok for his standard but a little tough for our standard.. alice long must have got this knack of setting tough papers from national jc.. they are renowned for such stuff..

wow.. finally a break from exams, parents and other stuff. today is speech day.. so us peeps don't need to go back to sch, except for those prizewinners (i'm obviously not one of them).. been lazing around since i woke up at 7am in the morning (just can't sleep in, for some wierd inexplicable reason).. will study history later..

it's like totally pointless lohz.. study history so hard still fail? and getting those shitty results will not want to make us study for the next test, and the evil cycle begins repeating itself over and over again.. till the final exams where we are in no mood to study because we know we'll fail, but study just for that little glimmer of hope that never seems to be there in the first place.. damn it. i'm passing all my other subjects except history lohz..

just can't wait till wednesday, official countdown is 50 hours from now.. the magical hour is 2.00pm where i'll finally be free from my books... just 50 more hours to go... tahan a bit.. but i really dun feel like studying anymore, for reasons stated above.. but i must do it.. must pass history (trying to psyche myself hehe)..

ok.. had sth wierd going on just now.. i was surfing the net just now and suddenly i had this recollection that i had dreamt about what i'm doing currently.. it's a bit eerie, always have this occurences taking place, anyone got any idea? perhaps i'm just a little psychic, ya? who else has this sorta experiences?

ok.. just had lunch again.. yes i know, it's getting boring posting "just had lunch" or "just had dinner".. one trend i noticed i always eat fast food during weekends.. and oddly enough i never pile on the kilos.. is it good or bad? :D

history paper on tues.. dun even know wad's gonna come out and gotta study that whole bloody Odyssey book, it's just so damn boring.. gut feeling that chapters from the back of that book will come out.. it's not tt i dun understand wad's going on.. but its the way thian marks our scripts lohz.. so strict.. oddly enough i get like 15/25 for SS but for hist i get sth like 10/25 that kinda thing.. it's like so dampening and demoralising..

wonder how i even manage to take the time to log on to even do my blog.. i really can't wait for wednesday after 1.45pm, freedom at last, freedom to do whatever i want to do, which is going out, going out and more going out lohz.. need to factor in a trip to the airport too.. did i juz say i may be going to Sydney and Brisbane during hols? Hope it really works out, my legs are itching to fly..

What type of supernatural being are you?(Not finished)
brought to you by Quizilla


You are Envy!
Wow... what a dreamer. Always wanting what you
can't have, and always dreaming of having more
then you do. It's not the worst sin, and we're
all guilty of it - but you take it to the
extreme! You are prone to depression, often
from things you can't obtain. Be a bit more
positive, you have a lot that others want too -
so don't sit there being all green! On the
positive side, you tend to be a smart person -
and can often achieve the goals you set
yourself.
Congratulations on being the overall harmless, and
pretty normal one of the 7 deadly sins :)

i'm still in quite a bad mood lohz.. today morning go to school. LHB in bad mood because some idiot in the AV room decided to screw up and had the whole fucking school standing at attention for 2-3 minutes, and as he reached for mike the music began to play.. after the morning assembly he went to talk about some honesty shit, about some wank who did not pay for the new paper or underpaid.. he was quite pissed off.. then after that he began talking abt sch pledge, the "gong jiao xue sheng ying you de mei de, ai zheng jie, etc".. now he wants us to recite his cat high gentlemen shit every mon, wed and fri and chinese ver on tues and thur... fucking boliao right. it's like he got nth better to do..

talk until 7.50am, by then we got barely enuff time to rush to the hall, so all papers were delayed lohz, thanks to his crap.. SS wasn't too bad, i had predicted either Northern Ireland or Switzerland would come out. the former did.. i'm so prophetic *yeah right*.. paper ended at 8.50am, poor buggers in the hall did until 9.15 bcos they didn't know where to sit and all that.. so elect lit pple begin slacking while the others do their elective humans paper.. sit around, chat and revise a bit of a maths until around 11am, when we went back to hall.. papers still haven't ended yet.. thx to LHB..

after that went into hall.. deng said it was freezing cold (he was wearing 2 shirts bcos he 4got to bring a jacket).. told him i wld make it.. that's when the shit began.. alice long came in quite fed up for some reason.. then gave out the papers.. looking at the Qs, seemed easy.. i am so wrong lohz..

breezed thru the first few qs, but i'm so damn worried now i wld get many of them wrong.. came to Q3b. fuck. stuck. damn it lahz.. why did alice long come out with such a tough paper.. i was like rushing to finish lohz.. i left 7 questions blank, now i can only get a max of 63/80 provided i don't fuck up the other questions.. which will surely happen.. now i'm really really hoping to pass amath.. even if its 40/80.. i can't fail amath.. the paper looked so easy at the start but became tough towards the end lohz.. thanks alice long.. thanks for failing us and making us retain..

i dun even noe if i can continue doing amaths next yr the way it is lohz.. fuck it.. and tmr is physics some more.. will die..

Mad at the world, eh? You have a tendency to...
freak out easily. Overly emotional about
everything, you're most prone to bouts of

just reached home frm sch.. so worried about SS and amath paper tmr lohz.. alice long says the 2001 past yr paper is chicken compared to this yr's paper.. dunno what to expect.. i really dunno if i can even stay in cat high or not.. it's like.. just because a new principal came on he expects to make it tough for us.. is his ultimate aim to like have 40 students in one level or sth along that line? this is really bad lohz.. need to pass amath desperately..

bala came in for eng lesson and told us to do our own work.. she was marking eng compre scripts.. i asked if those belonged to our class and she said "i really felt like tearing some scripts up".. some prophecy here that like 99% of us failed and will be wearing brown pants next yr or sth like that? it's so depressing u noez.. thankfully sheu jie and guo shiong was telling me e heng was in relatively good mood.. think he was marking compo... hope it's not too bad after all.. I NEED TO PASS ENGLISH!

SS paper tmr is being set by chan wm, as it is anything and everything can happen. better study as if it's a structured.. later it really come out how? i may just so die because i fucked up some qs lohz.. at least elect lit paper is next wk, so can focus on SS and amath paper tmr.. physics on thurs.. tulan liaoz.. really must study for chem and bio.. and amath and SS too..

never have i been so worried abt any paper lohz.. just hope they make it a tad easier like the languages although many of us may still screw up.. please.. let us make it..
