FaceBlog 57.


FaceBlog 57.

Grief it's been a heck of a long time since I last did this... I really should be more consistent with it. They say journaling's important, gets your mind straightened out. Suppose that's a decent assumption, considering the logical explanation would be that you get to have an external view on your thoughts, having put them down to text. Makes good substance for reflection and response.
Now's probably the best of times to start reflecting. Now that I'm in the army, things aren't as smooth and polished.

One would've thought that in the army, you'd create such strong bonds with those around you that you'd just feel comfortable to have these comrades around you. Maybe it's just my situation, maybe it's just me, but I do not feel that at all. Guards are always up, barriers always secure. My mind is a fortress, my life is a vault. Everyone is focused on your failures, on your inabilities, that nobody knows what the other person is good for. It's a place where your greatest strength isn't always put to good use, and a place where every weakness can become exploited. Which makes is doubly imparative to cover all angles of your defense. 

Hahaha but then again, when you get away from it all, you get that clarity which you've been missing for a long time. The cynicism sets in and you see the world as it truly is. Every flaw that you've ignored till thus far, every imperfection amplified in its inefficiency, and you realise how inadequate this place is. That's when the next part comes into play. Problem solving. How do I fix it? Or better still, "How do I get it to work for me?" because, lets face it. Two years of service, you can provide the army with little more than an extra pair of hands. What's the flipside? What can I get out of these two years? Some might be a bit more attuned to military environments and they'd want to learn as much about being in the military and experiencing the full package.
Alternatively, you could be like me, a lowly positioned conscript on minimum pay with a matching level or respect, where all you want to do is get through with as little resistance as possible. That's when you start fitting the system to yourself. A long arduous process no doubt, but a very beneficial one indeed.

The most important thing I do believe I've learned, is that happiness is just a simple coin. Easily lost, easily replaced and not to mention cheap. But the truth is found in JOY. Joy cannot be taken away, joy cannot be contained. It spreads, it thrives, and it's what can keep you going if you know where it comes from. 

I've digressed a lot in this, but I'm far from sorry for it. My fingers can't keep up with my thoughts, but then again thats how I like it.

It's been a long time, and it's a long journey ahead. 081014.

Hitz here with a morning edition and I'm tired.
Didn't really sleep that well last night. Kept rolling around and slamming my face into the wall next to my bed. Not fun at all. Not much to talk about today since it just started, but I guess I'll do a recap on the past two days since I haven't written since Saturday.

Sunday was crazy awesome. Break Free, Rain Down and Tell The World. Three awesome songs which made worship that day super cool. Of course, the only down side was that my arm was aching after playing for two services! Haha! Not complaining though, cos it was way worth it! After that, lunch with Rox, Kim and Pearl. Had a 'cheap' lunch. five bucks for a chicken cutlet $_$ quite pricey, but I've seen worse.

Monday, wow. Barely did anything for the whole morning. Meant to go to Shaw Centre for the movie Surrogates (Sorry Dillon, other people got to me before you did!). When we all got there, we realised one guy was still missing with five minutes to the start of the movie. Where is he? He's at TIONG BAHRU!! WTF TO THE MAX
So we go into the theatre, tell the ticket tearer (idk what they're called) to look out for him. Halfway through the movie, He arrives (somehow) and doesn't get the entire show. You retard LV. After that, just went to CK's house and just played Wii. Mario Kart, SSBB, Mario Super Sluggers. Quite awesome stuff haha.

Well that's all for now. Might write another tonight so we'll see.

Hitz out.

And It's time once again time for... WHOSE LINE IS IT ANYWA- Oh wait, whoops, wrong script.
*shuffle shuffle*

Okay! It's once again time for.... FACEBLOG! WOOHOO!

Well, Let's get started shall we? Firstly, I just found out how to link my blog to this thing so I can update both at the same time, so that's awesomeness right there.

Well, the first weekend since the end of exams is here, and it feels great to finally be able to go for stuff like Band, Choir and all that. Good to see all my friends too so it was awesome Wootz.

I apologise for a 2 day overdue post, but I have my reasons, I'm not gonna say what xD. Nothing happened in the past 2 days, I assure you.

Extras from today, went to Coffee Bean at Railmall for breakfast. Bad idea. Food came quickly, my drink too. Only problem was, the waiter/waitress (I had no clue which gender it belonged to) was wandering around aimlessly with my food. Unable to see that I was waving to him/her telling them that it was mine. And after all that, the food was horrible. Microwaved scrambled eggs. Do you realise how disgusting it is? It's just chunks of radioactive egg. I could tell the scrambled it AFTER they cooked it. I could see the knife marks on the egg. Another bad part of the food was the sausages. The eggs were hot, but the sausages were really cold. It was horrible. The only good things was the toast and if they screwed up making TOAST, that's just sad.

I've been told to spread the word to IBC Youth Highschoolers. Anyone want to join in on the Sports Nite at ICS? You guys should know who to contact if you heard about it already. If you don't, find someone who does. If I'm not wrong, people to contact are Wun-Long and err... idk LOLZ.

OTHER STUFF!

EMILY! YOU'D BETTER PRACTICE LUCKY AND I'M YOURS!! WE HAVE A WEEK!!

That's All for today folks!

P.S. Check the group discussion board! Should I have the right to keep writing these entries?

Hitz Out.

Hey guy's, Wassup.
Not quite sure how many people are gonna be reading this on this particular webpage. (If you're reading this as a FaceBlog, then you're not reading it on the original webpage.) Well, for those of you who are still locked in with the ball and chain of exams, fret not, the end is nigh! For the exams of course. just a little recollection of what's happened over the course of... A long time, since I made my last post.

My work ethic still hasn't improved, though I did kick it into overdrive in the past month or so. Quite surprising how slow time moved then. Anyway, I was lacking internet as well as connection to pretty much the outside world. Thank God it's all over now. Things are better. Not as stressed. It's like warp speed, like the world changed gear. Time is moving a lot quicker now, and it's only a matter of time till the holidays and the end of the year arrive. Until then, let's just savour the moment.

Some reading this may ask me, "How'd your exams go?" to which I'll just reply with a shrug and mutter "Con-camp for sure." Now, if you're not from my school, I'm not sure if you would know what 'Con-camp' is. Yes, it does mean concentration camp. No, it's not like in Nazi Germany. It's just our principal's way of showing power with an authoritarian regime in a school. Not that I'm saying he's evil, I'm just saying, "Isn't that taking things a little too far?" Heck it.

Well onto a lighter note. I got to stay home today! Awesome shit happens when exams end. Had a family photoshoot. Awkward as heck. My mum hires a photographer to come in at 9:00 in the morning. I could have slept through the darn thing, but it wouldn't have done my mother justice. Besides, I need new pictures of me framed up. So far, the only pictures of me that I've seen around the house are baby pictures. And no, I'm not uploading any. Back on track though, why was it awkward? Well that's simple. Wake up at 8:00 in the morning and wear a freaking suit (jeans, suit shirt and blazer in my case) only for an hour. Just so some random guy can snap photos at you with a brick disguised as a camera. Weather here where I live isn't exactly nice and breezy. It's a place where the sun bears down on you (even at nine in the morning) and the air is still. Worst of all, the humidity could make you drown in your own sweat. Thankfully it wasn't that bad, but I was sweating as if I'd run a marathon. With that, I'll give some helpful advice, though most people would know this. Never wear a full suit and blazer out in the heat.

So far, That was my day in a nutshell. I'm not going to bother reviewing the past week(s) because it would be the same old shit over and over and over again. Study, eat, sleep, study, eat, sleep. Absolute torture.

Well, I've juiced my head out. I'm just gonna put a few things up here cos I feel like it.

1. No, the guy in the unseen passage for lit did not kill his grandmother.
2. Puma/Ferarri stuff is expensive.
3. Mrs Dubose is freaking awesome.
4. The person you least expect to kill you, will.
5. Squirrels, mice, monkeys or any small animals able to scale heights are a distraction when placed by a window.


Hitz Out.
BTW This is the new format for the FaceBlogs.

04/09/09

Today was pretty much the start of the holidays. It was pretty uneventful if you count out the class outing, but other than that it was very dull. Had tuition, which seemingly ruined the day, but then again I guess that's local school life. No holiday is EVER a holiday. Really sad. All we get to do is just study, study, study. And when it's all done, we study some more! How exciting.

My household has been pretty darn quiet, except for a lot of bickering in the next room. Not to mention the threats made against me about me being too rebellious. Well, I don't see it as being rebellious. I see it as being opportunistic. If you encounter a situation where you're being asked to do something you know you're not gonna benefit from, would you perform the task, or would you walk away and do your own thing that would be more beneficial? Surely you'd do your own thing.

Tonight's advice, Go nuts. Do whatever. It's the holiday's it doesn't matter. Holidays are supposed to be fun not crappy study breaks where the only difference is that there's not school. It's amusing to see everybody just incapable of really kicking back and relaxing. It's just not natural for them to do it! And what happens? The inevitable. You see people konking out in class, people getter easily agitated or being irritable cos' they didn't get enough sleep. All these are just the symptoms of the system. Bet some of you reading this rolled your eyes or thought "Oh geez, it's another stupid ranter about the 'system'." Go ahead, close this window. Go read failblog or some other shit that people normally waste their life on.

Heck it, I'm outta here.

Midnight Rants.

Hey people.
It's the Oath here again. I know it's barely been an hour since my previous post, but I say what the heck. I can't sleep, mya minds abuzz with the most random thoughts imaginable and I got quite a bit to get off my chest. So let's not waste anytime and get this over with.

Now, a bunch of the topics I'm gonna rant about are going to be a tad bit random. Fortunately there would be a few topics that some may be able to establish some sort of rational understanding and/or relate to the situations involved. Please note that any offence taken to any readers is not intended and this rant is only meant for peoples amusement and my destressing.

So let's begin with our first topic for the night/morning.

Ever had one of those days where you felt absolutely EVERYTHING in the world was out to get you? Yeah, I'm pretty darn sure a good number of people know what I'm talking about. Well, I get these days quite often and as some may know, they're none to pleasant to deal with. No doubt there are always reasons and explanations, albeit a bad one or nonsense. More often than not, My reasons are of the following.

1. Change in weather.

People don't really realise it, but we subconsiously change our emotions and view on the world as the weather changes. It's natural yes. Irritating? Yes indeed. Not only does this make emotions that much harder to control, it also makes human beings a lot more irritable, depending on how great the emotional change is, as well as the type of change that occurs. Sadly, the changes that occur are usually for the worse.

2. External irritants.

Heres a group of people that needs no introduction. Ever had that occasional idiot come up to you and just keep pestering you about the same question for a whole day? Basically it's the stupid guy who's always there to make you're life miserable. Whether in the classroom or office, there always one of them.

3. Home affairs

Self explanatory. Irritating siblings, nagging parents, the works basically. One of the most hard to get rid of factors in creating an emotionally unstable person.


Now why am I writing this? The answer is simple. I'm bored. Yes, if you have taken any of the above to heart, I assure you, only 10% of it would actually be useful. If you DID find it useful then good for you. You obviously have no common sense and you do realise that all I did was describe nonsense? Ah well.

I'm outta here.

Drawn Oath.

The First.

Well, this is my first real post on this little blog of mine. Geez, it's been ages since I ever updated this thing. Oh well here goes.

Today was rather uneventful. Same old BS that goes on in school. Unfortunately, home affairs are slightly worse off. For one, my tuition teacher complained to my father, who also had complaints from my mother that I had been slack. Seriously?!

Futhermore, my overreactive, and may I add illogical, father of mine is under the impression that I suffer from short-term memory loss. Do I freaking look like DORY?! FML. My Dad SERIOUSLY need to GET A GRIP. I am NOT dysfunctional, nor am I some retard who lazes around the house all day. No. I do my work. I do the work that I know for a fact is important. It's just simply unfortunate that my labours often don't achieve results. Take for example, my mathematics grades. I've been failing flat out all year. Until FINALLY this term I clinch a pass. JUST a pass. That great for me, considering all the F9's on my report card. Then there's my sciences. If you drew up a graph on the results, you'd have a negative gradient. Reason? I have no clue. My physics this term REALLY deserved a pass. For whatever reason FKM decided that I needed yet ANOTHER fail this year, I really have no explanation. And it really pisses me off to know that they CLAIM to have done 'ALL THEY COULD' to help get me a pass.

To be frank, the ONLY helpful teachers this WHOLE YEAR, are the Lit teacher, who is probably the best one I've seen yet in my school, and the Bio teacher, who is undoubtedly my favourite teacher for two years running.

Well, I can't be bothered to write much more. Nor can I stand to think about most of the above statements so lets just leave it at that alright?

The Drawn Oath.
