Last Helmsman/College Day 2006

What a crummy way to start the morning. I woke up with an exceptionally bad headache and had to tolerate all the scolding and rambling from BOTH my parents, about how I was irresponsible and obese and an idiot, because I didn’t feel like going to school. Yup, those were the exact words and it doesn’t surprise me how they can jump from one issue to another just like that. Sons of bitches I tell you, or at least that’s what my dad is. I really hate the guy and if the day, in which I can finally get a job and move out, be tomorrow, it wouldn’t be soon enough.

Every time he has something to say, I can guarantee you it’s nothing good. Like shut up already, yes I know I’m obese and useless and brainless in his eyes, leave me alone. He has this whole retarded logic about how people who are below average in the IP should not be in the IP. Which is totally absurd, if you think about it, because it would mean that only one person is allowed to be in the IP. When the below average people are removed, a new average is made and you would have to remove even more people until only one is left. He’s also a hypocrite, so don’t be fooled by his false pretence whenever you have the misfortune to run into him.

I more or less cooled off after I went back to sleep. Rolled out of bed just in time to watch Oprah Winfrey on Starworld. I can’t believe they took Oprah off channel five’s 6.00pm slot. I have been home too late for the past couple of weeks to only realise this today when I checked teletext. Says a lot about how busy I’ve been don’t you think. Sighs*

Helmsman week is officially over!!! I would say that I enjoyed the last helmsman week to a certain extent. The feeling fab courses were undeniably the best activities for the whole week, but I wouldn’t say that the NE quiz was all that bad either.


Really random pictures that I took when I was bored. The Tian Wei one is priceless.

I went with Yvonne, Amanda, Darren, Jomaine and Yi Xiang to the indoor stadium on Friday to attend one of Audrey’s church events. It got boring after all the more energetic songs were over and sad(?) to say, Language Arts has made me so cynical about religion that I will most probably never find a way to believe in any of it.

College Day. Oh boy, it was 1000000 times worse than the one we attended last year. First of all, we were all in the hall last year. We were allowed to do whatever we want and to talk at whatever volume we pleased. This year, we were separated into various LTs and there were PMS teachers over seeing the group of us, shouting like they were suffering from wedgies or menopause. I think the whole thing is absolutely illogical. It really wasted my whole Saturday. Just being in school to watch people whom I mostly don’t know, walk up the stage to receive some paper and miserable cash prizes.

There was this whole issue about bringing food into the LT. I mean come on, don’t pick on the poor PRC guy who probably didn’t understand the old prune. If you want to scold/threaten someone, go for the brainless twits who brought the bloody food into the LT! The old prune must really have nothing better to do than to ask for the reason why we are prohibited from bringing food into the LT. In the end, we amused him with answers like attracting ants and cockroaches etc. Sheesh, he must have gotten quite a kick out of it yes? Senile moron. I shall work hard to think of a good excuse to miss next year’s college day. Maybe write in to MOE to complain about how their whole five day work week isn’t functioning? Or just get my mom to write an excuse letter?


Please sense the sarcasm in one of the quotes.

Seeing as how I’m really bored with school, I shall end of the entry by doing a quiz I found to see how exciting school life is for me.
