Realised I haven't posted anything for a long time, shall make up for it now!
School today wasn't as boring as I thought! Well it WAS boring until school was over.
I've this packet of err I don't know what you call it exactly, but I guess you could call them "mini explosives". There's 10 sticks of it which comes in a matchbox like box. It looks like micro sticks of dynamites or something. Red in colour. So to set it off, you strike the yellow top of it, it lights up with a flame then when the flame goes off, KABOOM! Damn it's loud! So you better not be holding it when the flame goes off!
With the newbies at school running around like hamsters in a cage, and we (XX, and XX and XX and me) armed with the sticks of explosive... An idea came into our heads. XX immediately lighted one up and threw it outside the window, near where the grandstand close to our classroom was.
"Fire in the hole!"
1... 2... 3...
-Silence-
Ok, so the first one was a dud, maybe the wind blew away the flame and extinguished. So we threw another one. LOL...
KABOOM!
It was friggin' loud! Of course we pretended to be like everyone else!
"What the f__k was that?!"
Afterwards we got bolder! Decided to try stuffing the explosive in a bottle filled with a quarter of water. Again the first stick we put inside didn't work, but the second one did. And the bottle flew like... 2 metres up into the air? LOL. It was wicked! Here's the video of it!
This is my cousin: Teng Hau Wei Age: 10 Sex: Why don't you hazard a guess? Orientation: Who knows?! Hobby: Making up. AS YOU CAN SEE
He lives with me cause apparently, my mother is the household's "Super Nanny" and he's here to turn over a new leaf. From a bratty kid, to a pretty boy. What a transformation!
Muahahaha. Here's eye candy for you mates! Enjoy this work of art by none other than yours truly!
Alright I know that by looking at the time of that this post, I should be in lessons and not doing this. But hey, I found out something new while I was stoning in the library!
I've new found respect for the man Jay Chou.
Gosh, I used to think he was a stuck up, arrogant, think-he's-so-cool-with-that-face of his, son of a @#! kind of person. Especially with that slur of his when he sings. Riiight.
But NOW, I see him in a totally different new light. ( I can't believe I'm saying this either... I must be nuts.) When did this happen you ask? Hmm, let's see. It all began when I went out with Cass to watch his movie, "Secret" which I really cynical about. I mean come on! Inflate your brains peoples! How can ONE person be a singer, director, actor at the same time? Absurd! I mean, singer and song witer and actor I can understand but DIRECTOR?! You must be kidding me.
Ok, so I went in being all cynical and stuff and I admit, I was kind of reluctant to even WATCH the movie at first, but I came out with a changed perspective. I was like:
"Ohh. THAT'S Jay Chou?"
I didn't expect the movie to be of such a good standard. In my opinion, the plot was good, the acting was good and everything else was also good. I was suprised! I didn't see Jay Chou as a "stuck up, arrogant, think-he's-so-cool-with-that-face of his, son of a @#! kind of person" anymore but rather, "He's got talent."
THEN, I heard the song he composed which was sung together with the "Auntie-Killer" Fei Yi Qing. And THAT song was NICE. I don't listen to much chinese song and you don't hear me talking auch about it either, so here you go. Don't judge me differently because of that. But honestly, that song was good! And that enticed me to search more for Jay's song. A few here and there. I thought he was inclined to produce music more to the "noisy" side of it. Not entirely true. There's this song which I thought was really beautiful and the lyrics are absolutely deep and meaningful. Here lemme share it with you guys:
Remember to hit the play button! Here's the lyrics as well:
Jay 发如雪---
狼牙月 伊人憔悴l ang ya yue / yi ren qiao cui A crescent moon, my loved one is waned and sallow
我举杯 饮尽了风雪 wo ju bei / yin jin le feng xue I raise a cup and drank in the frost
是谁打翻前世柜 shi shui da fan qian shi gui Who overturned the box of incarnations
惹尘埃是非 re chen ai shi fei Evoking arguments
缘字诀 几番轮回 yuan zi jue / ji fan lun hui A predestined formula of fate undergoes countless reincarnations
你锁眉 哭红颜唤不回 ni suo mei / ku hong yan huan bu hui You frowned, crying for love lost
纵然青史已经成灰 zong ran qing shi yi jing cheng hui Even if the annals of history had already become dust
我爱不灭 wo ai bu mie My love will not disappear
繁华如三千东流水 fan hua ru san qian dong liu shui Grandeur is like three thousand waters flowing south
我只取一瓢爱了解 wo zhi qu yi piao ai liao jie Yet I only choose a ladle of love to comprehend
只恋你化身的蝶 zhi lian ni hua shen de die Only long for your butterfly incarnation
你发如雪 凄美了离别ni fa ru xue / qi mei le li bie Your hair is like snow, making our parting chillingly beautiful
我焚香感动了谁wo fen xiang gan dong le shui Who's moved by my (offerings of) incense?
邀明月让回忆皎洁 yao ming yue rang hui yi jiao jie Inviting the full moon to highlight my memories
爱在月光下完美 ai zai yue guang xia wan mei Love becomes pure beneath the moonlight
你发如雪 纷飞了眼泪 ni fa ru xue / fen fei le yan lei Your hair is like snow, your tears are flying
我等待苍老了谁 wo deng dai cang lao le shui Who had waned while I waited?
红尘醉 微醺的岁月 hong chen zui / wei xun de sui yue In the era of mortal intoxication
我用无悔 刻永世爱你的碑 wo yong wu hui / ke yong shi ai ni de bei I'll use my devotion to carve a tablet of love for you
(Rap)你发如雪 凄美了离别 ni fa ru xue / qi mei le li bieYour hair is like snow, making our parting chillingly beautiful

你若撒野 今生我把酒奉陪 ni ruo sa ye / jin sheng wo ba jiu feng pei
It's so depressing to know that, on a Sunday night, it's going to be a Monday the next day. Which is a god damn school day. Then on a Monday, it is depressing to know that it's going to be a Tuesday which is only the second day of the week and you're not even halfway through the week yet which means that you still have to slog yourself through 3 more days of school. Then there's Wednesday and you'll be thinking to yourself, "Hey, it's only 2 more days before the weekend, WHY am I living through this torture?" Thursday comes and it feels like such a super long day and you can't wait for it to be over...
FINALLY, it is a Friday and cause it is a Friday and there's the anticipation that tomorrow's the weekend, so somehow, the school days just feel so very looooooong. THEN, Saturday comes! Hurray! You feel the joy of a weekend! A break from the hell-hole you've been going through! But noooo! In your head, you know Sunday's going to come. And with that, Monday and Tuesday and so on... And the vicious cycle continue.
So why bother living through the week?
Gosh, I'm sounding very emotional huh. I don't know! Every time there's a holiday and it is over and it's a Sunday night, I feel so... Depressed!
I can't wait for this phase of my life to be over!
How's it going? Enjoying your hoidays? Enjoy stuffing your faces with Chinese New Year snacks? Enjoy eating sliced chicken or pork roasted on a grill? Bleargh... I certainly don't enjoy that. This is my first ever new year which I went without having "ba gwa." And surprisingly, I wasn't tempted as much as I thought I would be. That's a good thing.
Didn't really harvest much red packet's this year for some strange reason. Visited all the same relatives but just somehow, it wasn't the same as last year. OH YEA, some of my married cousins are overseas, with one already living in Australia... Why's EVERYONE wanting to go to Australia? Why not some other place? Why not New Zealand, or Africa, or Saudi Arabia? Yea, why not?
Been visiting many people's house since the holiday started and there's been almost no time for homework.
-SILENCE-
Really... There hasn't... DON'T YOU BELIEVE ME?!
Urgh, block test is coming. Don't know how I'm going to survive that, and two prelims and finally the A levels. It's like getting your balls burnt, then burnt again and finally twice more. -Wince- Ow... That's a painful thought... But that's the truth.
Nothing much to talk about actually. Just wanting to show that I've not neglected my blog.
Oh, we've got some visitors now. And there's this kid... Oh what a kid I tell you! First thing he does when he steps through the doorway is:
"Uncle! I want to play Freddie Fish!"
And his beady eyes darts here and there around the house searching for any tell tale signs of a computer. Oh how fast he finds it. He's sitting right next to me too. Doesn't believe that I'm doing my work on my laptop. I suppose he's keeping an eye on me while childishly showing off his PSP. OH GOD, he's lookin at what I'm typing. Gotta switch programmes for a while...
Phew... FINALLY he has gone off... What a brat! Hope my dad keeps him busy for a bit while I'll go play MY games. If he ever catches a glimpse of me playing games... I'm dead. Really I will be. OH no. He's here again.
