New Moon

It was a totally new experience, me watching a movie in the cinema alone.

Surrounded neither by friends nor by family. Downright lonely but, but, but it was nice. Chewing and crunching popcorn without caring about disturbing your neighbours.Ewww.

Right. How in the world did I end up sitting alone? So the story goes:

I was alone. Just me. I didn't talk to anyone for hours. Just kept to myself, studying for the wretched Chemistry exam. I'd forgotten how many minutes had gone past. All I knew was that the book never seem to near its end.

Anyway Nelson told me he'd booked me a ticket for the movie, so I wasn't that anxious about it. Sekali when I called him on Sunday night, it was all but a misunderstanding.

Following that, I booked a seat myself.

And thus I sat alone in a half-filled cinema. I thought of getting Jian Qin to watch with me but the guy told me the show was fully booked.

This is life; filled with misunderstandings.

Anyway the movie was awesome. Although many parts were deviated from the original story, they just make the movie more interesting.

And who weren't able to be charmed by the `oohs' and `ahhs' from the front? The real cinematic experience, all for only RM12!!

As quoted from Chin Fang `New Moon was an awesome finish to SPM'. Boy, isn't that true!

Allergies

I'm allergic to all kinds of chemical substances. Over the years, I've suffered a lot from the side effects I got from my disastrous habits and yes, I've found another food which qualifies itself in that list.

Let me bask in deja vu before I reveal the latest addition in the list.

When I was in Form Two, a friend of mine was actively hacking the trees at the local football field where I used to have football practice everyday. The result? I developed rashes everywhere on my body. It was bad, having itchy patches all over my body and the nest day was Thaipusam. How would you feel if you faced a holiday at home with scratching your arms and legs as the pastime?

In the same year, a bee stung my hand during PJ. Of course, I didn't pay much attention to it and guess what? Two hours had barely gone by when it started to resemble a pig's trotter. My hand spent the next few days wrapped in a triangular bandage inside the pocket of my trousers.

In 2007, I went berserk and consumed so many glasses of alcohol in, let's say, an hour. Remember `A tale of seven drunk men'? Yeah, that. Rashes all over and it was bad. Then my skin shredded all over the place and I felt like some different species of a snake, shredding my skin when I didn't need them.

Now, today.

The worst form of revealing that I couldn't eat the thing that was my life: Chocolate Ice-Cream.

That is like telling the whole world that the World Wide Web is going to collapse.

My life, gone. My favourite food, gone.

It gave me thick lips. So thick that I look like a clown although yes, I know I look like one already. Talk about rubbing salt onto wounds.

Based on the Law of Biomechanics, the severity of the itch is directly proportional to the reach. It is true. Sad. =(

Physics

Today was Physics.

To tell the truth, I didn't really had a wink of sleep the previous night. Studied all the way till half-past two in the morning, and proceeded to be awakened by dreams, dreams and dreams.

The papers were, in short, boo.

Paper One was a freakish one. I read every question thrice and yet managed to overlook the prefix DIS in front of the word advantages. That was, in my father's words, STUPID.

Paper Two was a big, daunting wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Damn, I skipped past the part of the moving-coil ammeter. What in the world? I should have known it when it came out for the trials. And OMG instead of putting Boyle's Law as the Physics Principle I put water pressure. Stupid.

Then we spent 2 hours joking here and there before returning to the hall for the third paper. We predicted F=ma to be a part of the paper and everyone was memorizing those experiments like thirteen-year old girls reading The Twilight Saga.

*Poof* Fast forward to an hour and a half later.

It didn't came out. But the question we got for our trials did come out. Saved by the ghost of exams past. It was okay okay only.

Overall, Physics was fine. Now what's left is Kimia. Let's just get it over with.

Bio + Acc

There is no doubt that I DID actually screw myself up the last two days. Biology was a freakish nightmare. They gave you a picture of a sperm and an ovum, and an arrow dictating they fuse to form a zygote and two girls are the products of it.

What can you derive from it?

Mr. Sean says it's a pair of identical twins sedangkan the brainy people 360 degrees around him declared that they felt it was a simple case of Down's Syndrome.

*A flash of lightning, and a bang.*

What in the happened in the hall!? How could I NOT detect the symptoms of Down' Syndrome females? Yeah, for Mr. Sarcastic sake, I wasn't aware of the mental retardation shown by the sample species. Oh great, that was really bad.

And grrr....I misinterpreted a diagram and ended up labeling the placenta as the amniotic fluid. There's going to be loads of marks being cut off from the subsequent questions unless, UNLESS the marking scheme is like Add. Mathes's, which I doubt so.

I forgot the position of the medulla oblongata. Pectoral Girdle what? Thoroughly convinced that paper 3 was going to be easy I couldn't derive the operational definition of photosynthesis.

If I thought that was the worst day of my life, I was wrong. Then came Accounts. Paper 1 was a breeze. Yes, thank you. But not Paper 2.

Doubting my intuition when doing the documents, I spent unnecessary time trying to figure out the position of the butiran of the accounts. Then perlupusan was even worse; I lost my head completely.

Question #2 was bad too. Walao. Tak imbang pun. #3? Same old story. #4 might be a lifeline but who doesn't know I have a problem differentiating kos tetap and kos berubah. (Well to critics, now you know)

Couldn't understand question #5 and it's time to say bye bye to the shadow casted upon my spirits. Physics up next and hey, I can do it.

Let's just pray for us all. May God be with us. (+May the force be with you)

...

Now, let me make one thing perfectly clear: I ain't going to be a dad. Yet.

It was a dream; a perfectly effing dream I had in one of my troubled sleepless nights.

Just an image fitted into my head while I was trying to rest my brain already stuffed with complex information.

Not an image, I guess. A video clip or something.

NOT a movie about my life!

Just my subconscious mind pulling my leg.


Right, a summary of the week, then.

10 episodes of Heroes in 3 days sure did implant more dreams in my already exhausted brain. Super loving the way I'm eating away the limited amount of time I have for studying.

Then it was Monday; Mathematics.
It was great except for the fact that I broke a ruler while trying to draw the graph. lol

Tuesday - Moral
Not to say I tak bermoral, but it was tough. The upshot of the day? The fact that I forgot to wear shoes to school. Funny, man.

Add Mathes was tough. Sigh. May the best of us have yet to be seen.

untitled

I can't sleep although I know that exams are on the next day and I desperately need sleep; I've begin to be afraid of sleep. What if I died while sleeping? Will the nightmares make me suffer in my dreams? These are inhuman tortures but hey, taking pills yield no dreams. Sleep has to be earned in order to see the future. Let's hope I survive the 8th of December.

Then I'll make plans for the future.

Day Two.

Gotta make this more interesting if not 10 days of exams would make my blog a place filled with boredom.

So we started the day panicking about the dreaded Sejarah Paper Two, which was sure to be my downfall because:
1) I never revise for Sejarah
2) I can never remember all the facts.

So I slept at two the previous night. Hey, it wasn't enough but who was the one who insisted upon blogging and watching Singapore beating Thailand? You asked for it.

So yeah. Singapore won 1-0. My post was, of course, posted. And I memorised the facts late into the night.

English One was cool, though I wish I'd never mixed up the formats of a formal letter and that of a formal report. I mean, yes the numbering was there but I forgot it was a report and wrote `yours sincerely' instead of `reported by'. Drats. There goes 1 mark.

It was good overall though. My essay was about an accident and i tried to save the victim when five men in black came to the rescue. Old story. Quite boring but hopefully sufficient for that all important A+.

After a short break, English Two. Finished in an hour and slept for 30 minutes. Didn't want to leave the hall so as to show that we 5 Cendekians are smart (we know how to answer so we don't leave early, see?). It was a horrible experience, sitting in a cold room with your bladder being exceptionally full. But I survived. Thank God.

Lunch hour next. Azizi and I spent our time discussing about Sejarah at the steps in front of the unit peperiksaan. Then Mr. Ng told me to follow him as I had a cert with him.

Turns out I got a distinction in the Kuiz Kimia Kebangsaan. Well, well, well. Cool. But i still rue my inability to get better results. Sigh, maybe I'm not good enough. But then, I was the only person who got anything other than the sijil penyertaan so I should be thankful. It's thanksgiving season!!!!!

Then we continued discussing. Suddenly, I heard people shouting. Thought it was the teachers. They should be able to take care of themselves. So I didn't really pay attention to them...

...until Azizi nudged me and told me, `they're calling you la'.

I was like, `what?'. Bengang.

Then I realised Pn Ratna was screaming `THUM' while Miss Shyamala was calling `SEAN' and they were perfectly synchronized, making it sounding something like "SEAN THUM SEAN THUM SEAN THUM'.

So I had a cert with Pn Ratna too. Haha. The camp in Kukup. :D

Happy (easily satisfied).

Then Sejarah 2 made my spirits rise even higher. Of the 5 essays, I knew how to do 4 although there were two questions which I wasn't really sure of. Guess I'm not creative enough. Wrote what ever I know. Was preparing to burn my books once I reached home. The structured questions were not bad, quite tough but I may prevail. Won't die!!!!!!

Then home it was. To cap it all, Leon got 7 A's. Ahh, hope he gets into EC. Then he'll know what's the meaning of hell.
