March 29, 2012 (YAY)

I know, I know, my title sounds sooo informal!!! Anyways, it is indicating how excited to have the midterm week over with and have spring break. Oh my god, if only spring break is now. Okay that grammar was weird, this whole entry is weird simply of brainwashing of biology and geometry. I dont know what I am writing about, wait, I do know, which is about spring break and how I wished the silly (aka stupid) midterm week would be over. I was going to celebrate right after the biology midterm, which is after the geometry exam, to scream and skip around the school, but apparently I cant, since that we have orchestra afterwards, which puts so much pressure on me since the peices are harder than the last years'. This is so annoying! I just wished that sunday comes quicker, sooner, faster, oh oh oh my lovely sunday I need you. I dont want friday and saturday. Go away, and sunday, come, come. Please.

March 28, 2012 (Pandemonium)

Another day of studying. In order to escape the serious annoying mood, I decided to escape by doing my hobby, which I have a lot, but yet have found my favorite one. Today, I decided to play music. I like music actually, again. I like singing and playing music. I like dancing. I like dancing to music. I guess I like everything about music. Music theories, not so much, but I guess they are essential to get the beats and notes right. Sigh, why is there rule for everything? A bunch of music theories for music, a bunch of rules for basketball, and another bunch of rules for life and out in society. Life is strict, I guess, however, without those rules, the world would be an absolute chaos, in other words, a pandemonium.

March 27, 2012 (Choice)

Today was another day of studying. Of course, this week is exam week. I seriously hate this week. What is the use of exams anyways? I dont get why we need a humungous test in order to see whether we are actually learning something or not. What is the use? What is the use of trying to memorize every detail the night before, and then forget about everything afterwards? Is exams for the students who dont listen in class? Well, it's up to them, whether they listen or not. My point is that we have a choice. Some choose to listen and some choose to use that time to sleep and do other things they would like. It is not others' problems, it theirs. Wait, it is not even a problem, again, it is a choice they chose, not something forced. No one forces you to play, right?

March 26, 2012 (Sherlock Holmes)

Yes, as I've mentioned before, this week is our finals, well, midterms actually, and today we've had our first test today. Well, it is a quiz, at least we've got that out of the way. However, as the title indicated, I've watched the BBC series of Sherlock Holmes. It was so awesome. i remember that our english teacher had recommended and it was so-absolutely-entirely awesome! Oh no, another obsession of mine is over taking me. Last week, my obsession of kdrama's faded since I've finished watching that. Now it's sherlock holmes series? Series! Oh no! I think there are 3 seasons out already! I'm pretty much dead and finished. Sigh, what of my midterm scores?

March 24, 2012 (Dreams)

Today, I dont mean dreams as in dreams that you want to accomplish, but as in sleeping dreams. People tend to forget what they've dreamt about after they woke up. (which is my case, very often) However, the dream may gradually come back to them. Sometimes, dreams are about nothing that you had on your mind. Some other times, dreams are about the last thought before you fall asleep. However, in my opinion, the dreams about the last thought you have before you sleep is rare. I dream more about things that werent on my mind. I have occasional nightmares that arent even scary after you wake up and think about it. I've dreamt about meeting a person, and finding out he is a ghost. I've also dreamt about a theif right outside the door of my house. They were such scary nightmares while I was in the dream, but in reality, they are just silly as they can be.

March 22, 2012 (Luck)

Is luck true? Does it exist? Perhaps. However, the probabilities can be calculated by math. Anyhow, I believe luck does exist, and it kinda broke up with me few days ago; I am mourning over our break up now. These days I feel like luck isnt on my side. Seriously, what did I ever do to luck? Why did it leave me? Sigh, did I take it for granted? Oh, please come back to me, my luck! I miss you, love you, forever and always. I dont need nobody else, only you! Hahah. I am writing a love letter to luck. I really need it back. Let's all hope that luck and I can get back together again. I wish that we will make up and I can live a normal life again. Oh please, please, please. Come back to me before the horrible monster comes, which will probably be next week, when it is our midterm week..... Oh Luck, I need you back.

March 21, 2012 (Things that stays the same)

While your whole world is spinning out of control, where everything is changing, everything is going wrong, and everything is bringing you down, there are things that are always there. Hey, the thing is that there's always music, tv shows, movies, better yet, comedy shows, books, musical instruments and whatever else you like to do, to cheer you up. They arent going anywhere, right? Have you ever seen your flute or guitar move around with legs that magically sprouted out from under? I havent yet. Those things will never change. Also, I think friends dont really change either. They are always there. However, I am going through all these things these days that are constantly changing. I really do not want to care, but they are just there to trip you, block infront of you, preventing you from going forward. An example of these obstacles, may be midterms week........ and accidents. Everything is spinning out of control, and I dont like it. I like to be able to control everything and live happily, normally. However, I guess these are what makes life worth living, with the things/people that/ who stay the same.

March 20,2012 (the day has come)

Oh no,the day has come, where all is announced, we are having finals next week! Oh no..... I really want to shout out how I absolutely do not want any single final tests, well actually they are midterms, but oh we'll, they at ethe same thing. I absolutely can not still believe that this day has finally come, that we know that we will have alot of tests next week. I don't even want to think about it, but since that my topic today is about the horrible exams I will have next week, I might as well talk about them. Hmm, let's see....... So on Monday, we don't have any exams, however, I bet the whole day it would be abouit exams and Im sure wewill never have a chance to not thin about it. And on Tuesday, there is our Chinese test! Thank the lords that it is only a chapter test! Which I am so very glad about. I'm pretty sure my friend would just skim through it right before lunch. Next weave English Nd expository writing exam on Wednesday, the same day!!!! Im pretty sure I would be happy after Wednesday, howevermp, I can not celebrate yet, for that our geometry and biology test is on two days after that, on the Friday, which there would be a half day off, there is the prom which is mainly for juniors and seniors, and of course, Im not going though freshmens are allowed to go, Im going to sit at home, watch about ten to fifteen movies, celebrating that the horrible week is over.... That day can not come soon enough.......

Sleep (March 18,2012)

I think sleep is really important. Sleep really does affect how you perform the next day. For example, I slept so late yesterday just because I couldnt fall asleep. It was horrible. I detest the long hours of just turning from side to side on my bed. I hate the hours of staring into space or thinking about things endlessly. Is this called insomia? I dont think it is, but I just can not sleep at all. It is so horrible. Is it just me or there are other people out there who has the same problems? I'm pretty sure that my classmates dont have problems falling asleep as serious as mine. I wish I could quickly fix this problem. If I dont, then the next PE class, it would be the same, and I would perform even worse. I will sleep earlier in order to save my self.

March 18. 2012 (Fads)

Fashion trends are cool, like everyone there is this particular style on specific products. Or that product itself is a trend. Remember how crocs used to be such a hot trend? Like everyone, I mean literally every single person was at least wearing it once in that period of time. Which was like, oh I dont know, 2 years ago? Anyways, yesterday in a restaurant, I happened to spot a middle aged woman who wore a pair of blue crocs. It looked reasonablly pretty, but it looked worn out, it is totally a fad now. I dont want to sound like a particular type of people, but even I dont wear my crocs as often as I used to. I used to adore that pair of crocs I have. I really like it, it is red and white. I used to want another pair which looked like sandles, but I gave up since it was starting to become a fad, and now, look, it is a fad. I'm not against crocs, in fact, I really like them. However, since they became so common, that it fell out, and became a fad.

Poetry (March 15, 2012)

Today was poetry contest, and we were all called to the cafeteria for the contest. It was quite eventful. I found out that I really like to use the word eventful... Anyways, we were to watch the candidates recite their poems and we were to pick one that we liked the most. Somehow, last years' contest was more funny, with a classmate named Brian who stopped everyone from clapping while he still hasnt quite finished reciting his. It was hilarious. This year, there were many interestin poems, but it wasn as hilarious as last years'. Also, this morning we had just taken a test on poetry, how coincidental. Actually, now coming to think of it, it isnt as coincidental. Since we were to submit ballads taht we've composed to the poetry contest, it only seems right to learn about the poetry unit while the poetry contest is lurking around.

March 14, 2012 (Here we go again)

Oh, here we go again. Do people work faster and produce better work when their under pressure. Me and my friends had already done a science fair experiment on it based on hamsters, and we figured out that under pressure makes you perform worse. However, perhaps on humans it may be different. Perhaps people would wake up saying, "I need to start working!" On the other hand, do not forget the extremes, the procrastinators, when they simply leave it till the very last minute. However, in personal opinion, I'm not quite sure whether people work better in which condition, neither do I know in which situations I work better in. However, I know one thing for sure that procrastinating is absolutely not good for anyone, so I better get going.

March 13, 2012 (Reasonable?!)

I've always believed that everything, has a cause. Everything, happens, for a reason. Yes, there are coincidences, accidents, unexpected surprises, whether pleasant or not. However, most of everything that happens, happen for a reason, or several reasons. We all know the chain effect. One cause may lead to several events happening, again, whether it is good or bad. Also, there is many effects coming form a single cause. One effect from many causes. I know, our class have written a whole essay about cause and effect, and now to come to think of it, I think it is a good topic, a very "reasonable" one. Am I believing in something to magical, that everything always happens for a reason? However, my arguement, is true. If you see something happening, you my be able to find out what was the cause when you trace back. Yes, everything, does in fact, happen for a reason. This may be an optimistic or realistic point of view, while I wouldn't like to judge. Like a friend joked: "Optimists, pessimists, realists, while you are think about the water, I drank it."- Oppurtunist. Which, i think is the most reasonable view of all.

March 12, 2012 T(The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.)

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself. I understand this is a great quote. Now what? What does it really mean? Am I the only one who doesnt get this? Well, let me break it down word by word here, since it is my blog, I'll post whatever I want. HA! Anyways, The only thing, that we will have to fear (verb), is fear (noun). We have to fear fear. Why do we fear fear? Should we feel scared of scariness? There are many, so many things to fear in this world. For example, ghosts, ghost stories, ghost movies, for the world to end, for the life as we know it ends, there are so many other things to fear about. However, we shouldnt fear fear, we all should be fearless, perhaps that's why we should be scared of fear. We shouldnt be scared of fear. We should be fearless.

March 11, 2012 (Joseph Kony-Slacktivist/Slacktivism)

During MUN class, we learned about Joseph Kony and his bad deeds, and that we must capture him and put an end to his actions. However, he is constantly commiting crimes and running away. The teacher also told us about slacktivism and slactivist. Slackvists, by his deifinition, is after knowing about an event, basically comment on it and thinking about what to have for dinner. This is an antonym for activism/ activists. He also joked that if we are able to capture Joseph Kony and bring him back, we will get an A for the class. We all know that it is difficult (nothing is impossible). However, I learned that we dont have to be slacktivists, we can all be activists by advocating justice with all the people around the world and raise awareness. Here, I will try to.

 Joseph Kony is probably in Sudan right now. (As I remember from our teacher) He has abducted, kidnapped, rapped children and women. He made the children child soldiers, gave them guns and forced them to shoot their parents. We have to stop him. We have to show him that we, the people of the world, are united, and that there is nothing to stop us from achieving something, when we've got the whole world backing us up. Joseph Kony, the people of the world is coming to get you. Watch out.

March 8, 2012 (Life is not a movie)

I wonder why I just realized that now, but at least I do now. Life is not a movie, there is no need to act. I know, i know, just be yourself, right? It may seem like a triste expression, but it is very true. Who cares? Just be yourself. During MUN class, a classmate had done a speech about individualism and not caring what otherst think or say. I think this is also very true and strongly agreed with her. I should also make essays or presentations on that topic too. I really like this topic. Though it may seem like egoistic, or narcissistic, but like whatever,you know? Who really cares what other people thinks? However, I think "think before you talk" is still a true priciple of life. (Talk about triste expressions.... hahah) Oh, tomorrow is a friday, I should be very happy, but I'm not. Oh, me. Sigh....

March 7, 2012 (Poems and life)

Our English homework for today was to analize and list what you liked about the poem. Billy Collin's poems are unique. I like how poets dont exactly follow the rhyme schme, while students spent hours and hours on trying to make the darn thing rhyme. Anyways, I really had alot of fun writing my poem which was based on "The Hobbit" but a total different story. Anyways, I chose the poem "Some days" by Billy collins as my assignment, because these days I feel exactly like that. The poem is about being controlled, or going with the flow, or controlling others. Well, these days I had done many team leader, captain work, and it is not easy, I'm going to say. However, it is fun I think. However, I know that sometimes, it is just better to not stand out so much and go with the flow. Oh lord, somedays are like that.

March 6, 2012 (Days)

There are days when you've just got to lose control. Perhaps you feel like poo one day, and you've just gotta do what you want to. Just do what it takes to shrug off that poo-y feeling. I really wanted to too. So therefore I am. Somedays you've just got to do what it takes, take chaces and live life. There are tons of quotes online that encourages about doing what you like and what you feel like. As I write this, I feel like that I am writing a poem some how. One thing I'm sure of is the refrain though. HaHa. I feel so weird these days. It must be because it is so eventful these days. Well, and we have tests next week, project due next tuesday and i was the first to do the presentation in MUN, which almost cost me all the guts i have.

March 5, 2012 (TED talks)

I really like TED talks, there are all kinds of topics up there. Also, those videos last only about 20 minutes, which is great for people with short term focusing minds. Today in English, our teacher showed us TED talks about Billy Collin's poems. They were ok. Our teacher pointed out that it is an awesome website, that everyone should go check it out. I remember also other 3 or 4 teachers saying that. It is true that this website is awesome. I really think that it is. If you are bored and want or need inspiriation, you should check out TED talks, not play video games or something. I am saying this because I really think TED talks are educational, and they are fun too. You get to see which speakers are better than this speaker. I gotta tell you, good speakers make awesome speeches, while bad speakers makes it like reciting some sort of litany. I really like those talks and I get inspired by them.

March 4, 2012 (Addiction)

Here today, I have something to say about addiction and obsession. First I would like to clearly state that I am not a drug addict or video game addict. Well, I am just a tad bit too overboard with obsession with dramas. I would not like to be, but I cant stop thinking about it! Sigh, if only I knew a little more about mind control. My point is, addiction and obsession is such a scary thing. I wish I didnt know about the drama at first, then I wished I knew about mind control. In this part of obsession, which is hopefully not too late to save myself, I am going to stop thinking about it for a few days. (If I could stay that long.....) Anyways, for people who are obsessed with whatever they are obsessed with, hopefully, you can save yourself too, good luck to you and me.

March 1, 2012 (Passion)

Today ma amie (my friend) Alyssa asked me what is my passion. It was a good question. I had many hobbies, but it is actually sad that I didnt have one that I loved the best. Knitting? Drawing? Sports? Music? I thought of music, thne thought, hey i'm getting warmer but what is it exactly. Then I figured out: Singing. I think this hobby is going to stick with me for the rest of my life, and I am very grateful of it. I really love singing. I've joined the musical before. Though I got an okay part, I wish I had the main part. Now, we are doing the Wizard of OZ and how I wish I played the main character. How I love that song! My flute pieces are all about the main chorus! Argh.... I really want to join next year's musical now. However, i may want to take French or other classes. Sigh.... I guess I'll have to wait.
