We have talons, you don't. [Updated]

-I like this banner by 06V13. Didn't really notice the pun until today. Haha, yes I know I'm slow.

I’m going nuts! It just dawned upon me that I should have started my packing way before today. I have less than 2 days to get RM$100 Malaysian currency, 10 METRES of nylon string (wtf for?), a disposable poncho, batteries for my torchlight, a whistle and to hunt for my sleeping bag which has inexplicably gone astray somewhere in my house.. In addition, having a cranky mother help you pack your bag (I didn’t ask for help, she forced her help on me) can be quite an experience.

Today was a pointless day. My mom refused to let me out of the house in the morning because she insisted that I accompany her to pick my dad up. I’m glad to an extent that he is back, this means I can sleep in longer on Monday and Wednesday, haha. Anyway, my mom’s refusal to let me leave the house permitted me at least an hour more sleep.

I finally managed to leave the house at around 1.00 in the afternoon and hurriedly made my way to school because I was suppose to help out with house nom stuff. Turns out they were already done when I was on my way to school.


CNY catwalk models.


The 8 AQUILA nominees.

I decided to go anyway because I didn’t have anything better to do at home. Reached school and sat around with Aaron for about 2 hours, talking random stuff and watching the year 1 OGLs being enthusiastic and hyper about O2.

Yup, so like I said, pretty pointless day. We did some loitering at Tampinese before I headed home to rot some more. Currently having Devil Wears Prada playing on my television, I just love that movie. Haha, it’s like my third time watching it and I still don’t get sick of it. It just occurred to me that it’s already March! Haha and it sort of sunk in when I bought this month’s issue of lime. Time is passing by quickly, yes-maybe because it’s still the honeymoon stage of our JC life?

Anyway lacklustre me has nothing left to bore you people with, how depressing. Technically, it’s already Sunday. I’ll probably hit the sack once I’m done with my DVD. Hopefully the later part of the day would prove to be a bit more productive.

---------------------------

Haha, atypical Sunday. Instead of doing my maths assignment and geog tutorial, I spent today playing the PS 2. Oh and there’s apparently GP essay to do because I was absent on Thursday, but I shall assume that I know nothing of it until Mrs. Leow nags me for it. I just don’t understand how people bring themselves to mug, someone, please share your secret with me! What drives you to mug? Haha, maybe a mugger should write like "101 to mugging" or something, I’m sure it will be a hot seller.

Well, rotting on a Sunday gives me a lot of time to let my mind wander. Today, my mind wandered to thinking about what my future will be like. Blog hopping has let me to realise that more and more people are wandering what their future holds for them. Hmm, I don’t think I would have ever gone to a polytechnic. Somehow the thought of getting into a polytechnic never crossed my mind. It’s probably because my mom has brainwashed me since young that the path I should take would be one from secondary school to JC and than to university. And I think subconsciously I’ve always attempted to do better than my brother. Like get into a better secondary school and better JC and hopefully do better for my A’s. Hmm, maybe that can be my form of motivation to mug, haha.

People generally get better looking as they grow older, according to the grapevine. However, I beg to differ, they are some people who seem to stay as ugly, and even worse, some who were originally somewhat good looking get uglier. I shan’t name names, of course for political correctness sake.

My mind wandering came to a halt when I started packing my bag for camp once more. I’ve managed to get everything on the list after having myself some sort of scavenger hunt at home. My brother’s army haversack is sticky on the inside! ><’’ but it is apparently due to the water proof characteristic or what not that the bag has. Anyway, I plan on bringing that bag despite its sticky interior because I plan on keeping my stuff nice and dry. I’m taking as much precaution as possible. I’ve labelled all my shirts because I don’t want them to get lost, I’ve yet to label my other item of clothing though, maybe I’ll do so tonight with my trusty permanent marker. I’m also bringing my phone despite the poor reception and I’m taking extra measures to make sure it’s dry. I’m putting it in a tiny zip lock bag and in a tupperware.

Rawr, another issue of concern occurred to me today. I don’t enjoy sleeping in tents, so the first 2 nights for me is going to be hell. My brother just passed me his army mosquito repellent. He says that it is INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH and that I am to use it to the bare minimum. According to him, it can remove paint and the colouring on plastics! Haha, oh dear, it sounds like I’m wearing thinner. Well, the repellent is supposed to be very strong, so I shall use it for the first night and see how things turn out.

Three more days to camp! (And coughs* something else of more importance, haha)
