Spent the entire day today at Radikal Forze's jam, my feet cant feel anymore after the long merciless standing but short of that it was my first time at zouk. Yes i am so deprived. Zouk doesnt look at glammed up as i'd imagined. Much smaller too. (MOS was actually quite small too.)But maybe its just cos just for today it was open to everyone and all the crazy party people werent there and it was all un-commercialisedclub-ish. Note to self, find out what a real club night is like ASAP. Btw, if you ever wondered what RSVP and NB meant, todays your lucky day,

RSVP:
"Répondez s'il vous plaît", a French phrase that translates to "please respond" and word for word translation is "respond if you please". It is with this meaning that invitation cards and similar documents are often marked with "R.S.V.P." It is standard practice to reply to an RSVP request whether confirming attendance or declining.

NB:
An abbreviation for nota bene, a Latin expression meaning "note well". And just for the slighly more academically inclined, NB.

There, thanks to wiki.

But okay, today's jam was and eye-opener to say the least. I officially saw the greatest assortments of powermoves today and i stand uncorrected, powermoves still win styling handsdown-provided its executed with style (yes i realise thats quite an oxymoron) and flare(and thats a pun) HAHA- Its the thing that makes the crowd go wild anyways. That and downright sickkk routines ohoh and the hilarious (mostly)Australian replies/antics/drama. Made the long agonizing 6hour stand-fest much less agonizing. There were the abstract(think i got the wrong word here) bboys too. And this 13yo Airflarer/Flarer/ElbowFlarer/Elbowspinner. Which kinda got boring to watch after he repeated the same set a coupla times. That being said, WTHMAN HES ONLY 13!? Ah and the 2000s, and 1990s, and spinning air freezes? None of which i will probably get by DANCENIGHT. And there were a bagazillion cyphers as usual. Wonder how many newbboys went back with false senses of contempt. HAHA

Anyways, there was this half-cute(cute used to mean ugly but adorable D: now its all positively connotated) guy infront of me who was..worrying. He kept doing this nodding action -as if affirming what the bboy just did when its pretty obvious he hasnt bboyed for long- and hand flicking?(i want to say jacking but its so crude) action every time a bboy does something..no wait he just does it everytime a bboy does anything.

HAHA nvm dissing is mean.

Moving on to other things, term 1 was hecccticccccc! Orientation and fac dance alone were enough to tie me down until 1 week before blocks. Which speaking of, went as unsmoothly as i had expected HAHA. There was econs, which i probably know and wont be disappointed(maybe mildy) at the grade i get, physics which was just irrevocably messed up, and GP which i reserve any comments on. Better make use of this one week holiday to get some stuff done for math and chem. Its the march holidays btw, just for all of you J2s that dont realise it/feel it. Me included. Its wasnt the one week break i look forward to like for the past 5 years of school, now its just one more week-undisturbed-by-school-life-to-stuff-as-much-info-in-my-brain-as-possible. Period.

But ironically i still manage to squeeze in time for movie-marathons. HA. Never watch a highly acclaimed/hyped movie followed by a cheaplooking, product placing, shallow eye-ecstasy-ing movie. Just makes the latter seem a whole lot worse than it is. (The eye ecstasy bit was fine though :D) Watchmen was goooood, though i felt i lost its storyline awhile into the movie for awhile. Oh and theres this scene SPOILER ALERT where the blue guy was copulating with his girlfriend while doing his quantum physics work stuff. At the same time. HAHA. that was funny.

Ohwells.
John. Travolta. FTW.

II. School and Misc

Been really tied down with fac dance lately. That and all the late nights are leaving me groggy in the mornings and during tutorials. Which cant possibly be too good seeing as to how blocks are 6 and a half weeks away. Ah and ive got to cut down on my gadabout-ish lifestyle as it would only spell misery if left otherwise. Or maybe i could just start psychoing myself into finding pleasure in studying 8D Yeah sure i'll go watch paint dry too while im at it.

Cny clothes are still on the shops shelves but at least ive got one item cross from the list; got my new sexy rogue coloured in-earphones today. Mann the audio clarity and noise isolation is pure aural ecstasy. Then the rest of my time i spend thinking of things that i want to do but dont think i ever will. And searching for oversea penpals. Backpacking anyone? Tell me where to go! Lyrics pages and morbid dreams. I see the road to insanity clear as day.

You dont really want it
Yes maybe you really do
Want it not so much for you
Alone, happiness is for two?

AH today was bloody-freaking-tired day. Them sissy flies have really done it this time. Went to school feeling like a freakin' zombie with eyelids droopier that an old lady's nevermind. And it didnt help at all that i had a stomache. Then it was gifts exchange. Gotta admit it wasnt what i expected, but at least now i wont have to feel guilty nemore bout my present. Aha after which was pe which was spent walking around aimlessly before finally settling down to play handphone games. omg. And then i got brainwashed completely bout popculture and how much it sucks and now im finding everything i hear aurally repugnant. Mann the fun really is in not knowing.

And youre dam petty wth.

Then it was chem tut.and math lec. Where i was misconstrued. D: Cos of pens. And then it was EC meet fac! Yay for FacDance 09!

Um then jiaxis place. Just to kill time. And to get a godbrother. Or a job as a butler anything. Then faccom meeting which was quite productive seeing as how it was a formal one. Then dinner at yueguanghe with the faccom which was dam entertaining, and boderline melancholic. Haha it seems that emo is all we do nowadays. If you ain't got no penknife you ain't being cool. Aha no im kidding im not advocating suicidalism(such a word?) of any sort.

I'll be away for the whole of the chinese new years weekend. Awfully sian. But at least it garuntees good food and twice the angbaos this time round. Wont be half bad :)

Ah ive to constantly remind myself its Alevels year already and that if im not mugging ill wind up unaccomplished and despised. But hell who needs a well paying job and a happy life. Ill probably die young anyways.

Shall end off with words from prettyboy Edward Cullen:

Oh man. Its been sucha long time since i updated. Shall try my best to piece all the floating thoughts in my head together.

Tis the second week of J2 and im feeling slightly more mugger-like already compared to last year, though that isnt really saying much. Oh wells. That and the fact that im always super enthu for the first month(?) or so of every academic term. Sigh, then it slowly dies out. Hm im beggining a new routine of sleeping before the clock strikes 11, cept on days that i stay up late. Call me naive but im actually surprised "zao shui zao qi shen ti hao" actually works. I've slept only once in physics lecture the past few days :)
Which kinda reminds me of:
1) Someone's new year resolution to not sleep in class and
2) A reward system for getting through everyweek without getting in trouble/failing any tests(hopefully ><)/falling asleep.
So if you see me online past 11, msn me and ask me to go to sleep. It'll be much appreciated and obliged :D

Okay more about school, the new timetable sucks quite abit. 1-4pm straight on thursdays means a growling tummy and progessively heavier eyelids. And the physics/math class spliting is doing shit to "attend to each students capabilities and paces to maximize their full potential" This triage of students is no fun at all. Half-an-hour breaks only on wednesday and half an hour extra for all subjects. Turd.

Mann we are the generation of the maligned i tell you. The perfectionist state. One slip and its over, you get a huge blackmark all over your records. Okay slightly exaggerated. Kinda meant to say that sterotypes are oh so difficult to change. Like how if you suck badly at (fill in subject) the previous year, youre bound to screw up the subsequent years and as such deserve extra special attention etc. And how a wrong impression is difficult to correct, that coupled with the most dishearteningly provocative words that come at the most "opportuned" moments, become a self-fulfilling prophecy. But jonquah is here to say: Fight the power.

Marry me Juliet you'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad go pick out a white dress
It's a love story baby just say yes

Approval.Ain't.Half.Bad.

Havent you always wondered?

//edit: The Assumption Song! and dont tell me you didnt. :)

Coffeebean has officially evicted all muggers and mugger-wannabes alike from its premises by placing small triangle cards that read "No Studying" on every table. Yes you heard me EVERY single one of em. Guess this what you can call desperation haha. Oh wells i'll give it a month or so til when the holidays end and school term really starts and no more rich buisnessmen go there for coffee and they start losing all their customers and theyd be so desperate theyd change the signs to read "Please Study Here" ahaha.

On a slightly different note.

I was feeling exceptionally evil just now and got the idea of bathing my cat from my sis. HAHA cos even though he's a house cat he hasnt bathed in 5? months and's starting to smell really funky. So very quickly i caught him and brought him to the shower area haha and this is where it starts to get real cute. Anyways my sis was there to help me bathe Angus and she was giving me like all sorts of instruction on how to properly bathe him without hurting his royal felineness. Stuff like "youve to go test the water first and flick some of it on him to see if he shudders etcetc" and i was thinking "lets just dump him in a bathtub full of water and watch him squirm! 8D"  haha but no im in reality really not that evil at all. So anyways, as soon as i stepped near the shower area he starts making all these poor purrs and cries and begs for me not to totally drench him in water. I mustve been wearing earmuffs then cos i persisted even after hearing those pitiful pleas. Aha so anws, after my sis turned on the shower hose thing she sprinkled like some on Angus-which is, what ive now come to know as a really bad move(more about that later) -and he got totally berserk and started climbing up on my shoulder. Thank god we cut his nails a few weeks back else i'd be having claw marks all over my body. So okay that was where it ended i guess. We'd to stop before Angus ripped off my shoulder or clawed my jugular(spelling) or poked out an eyeball.

But so anws, this got me curious as to why cats didnt like water so much. So i consulted the great knowledgable Yahoo Answers. and it turned out, i wasnt the only curious person. To which the best answer i got was this. But that wasnt really helpful. haha so i read on and have reduced the answers to the below three.

1)He's really a gremlin

So if i did splash too much water on him he'd morph into this really huge ugly scary creature-oops this one- that gnaws off gingerbreadman's heads and we'd totally just disown him.

2)He's really time conscious

And wetting a cat would not only be mean but time inefficient. cos he can only dry himself with his tongue. (short of me drying him with a towel that is) Which is equivalent to you being 5feet+ tall and drying yourself with a 6x6" towel. At the end of it-a really really really long time- all you get is cold and exhaustion. And he wouldve prefered better using his time lying on the couch, stuffing his face, or hiding under things and ambush peoples legs.

3)Hes not afraid of water, he just doesnt like it!

Uh huh uh huh, short, sweet and concise. Its like how some people DONT like the dark, DONT like heights, DONT like Great Whites and DONT like being dead.
