WEDNESDAY has always been in one word: SLACK. Today is no exception. I felt that seizing the day today is actually very very relaxing. Updated "Gentleman" passport today(In what way does this inculcate in us the right moral values?).

HCL today was ok, i managed to copy ALL of ZXM's compo stuff, YAY ME!!! Next was geography so went to sit with Yu Cheng and 82(guess who). So me and Yu Cheng had a discussion about recent stuff and changes to certain people in which i will mention later on. A Maths rocks, because Ms Chow didnt come today!!! Not that im damn happy or anything in light of the nearing of FYEs, but with current schedules being what they are, its high time we deserve a break(No offence to the Sec 4s). However, she sprung a surprise test which Ms Leong came to give us, hey 3 questions isnt exactly ROCKET SCIENCE or QUANTUM PHYSICS. So being the genius i am, i finished it in record breaking time of 9.68/9.67 seconds with legal wind speed so LHB is giving me 8 gold medals tommorrow.

Recess has become ever so much a period for PDS recently(GOD im addicted but im damn lag in noticing it). So i managed to do a 1.5 J Hook, YAY ME!!! Yu Cheng taught me the ending for rising sun but im still unclear though, however, being the genius i am, im sure i will master it in time to come. In retrospect, i really do not know the reason why i have developed this interest in PDS, nor do i know why i have developed an interest in my CCA ever since Sec 1 and now being the PART B UDI, to impart all that i have learnt to my peers or juniors. It seems all too soon and over time, i start to realise the bond we have forged, the memories we have taken back and the burning sensation that is ever going on strongly. THIS CCA ROCKS!!! Ok so moving on is English, so we continued with the speech presentation that i got full marks for, so DEREK was the highlight. But if we really scrutinise every little detail in his speech, we would realise the amount of mistakes, petty or major, that he had made. His speech was more a descriptive and sounded alot like plagiarised material from some "UNKNOWN ONLINE ENCYCLOPEDIA". I for one think that the only reason he got full marks TOO(pardon the pun because only we TWO got full marks) was because his audience was too immature to realise the simplicity of his speech. Sure, you may say that a speech is to captivate your audience, but if this audience have not even the slightest grasp of maturity in thoughts, than that speaks something about the quality of this speech which i find highly dubious. With all due respect, he may have done it himself and all, or you can call me jealous(no reason to do so actually because i got the same score), but as a friend and part of the audience, please do not give this type of speech anymore because it really insults our intelligence as fellow classmates of the same level.

Ok so next was assembly which includes alot of presentations about Science lessons learnt on school field trips. I personally feel it was quite well done but a note to my juniors(You know who you are): Please speak up more and be more confident about your abilities, if you speak in a zombie-like tone, people would react in a zombie-like tone, likewise to the audience, give your comments to the neighbouring people but do not overdo it, IT ISNT RIGHT(Now where have i heard this before?). Oh yah, so i was chosen by my language teachers to represent the class in the annual CHS Multillingual Bilingual Student Competition which made me react in a WTF sort of way. Than had a briefing, realise its damn hiong and start to pee in my pants. However, i thought about it and what they say is true, dont think of it as a competition(Anyway, what competition is it with me in it, NO CHALLENGE AT ALL), but think of it as a learning experience, hence i shall relish this opportunity to learn something so as to aid me for my preparations for O Levels. JIA YOU TO ME!

After school, do rising sun and helicopter than go HQ to waste my precious youth for SSC briefing. All they did was just go through the AI for the course which our dear CSM already has. Saw Wei En, but i didnt say hi mainly because i dont want it to be awkward, after all, if a stranger comes up and say hi to you, im sure you will go gaga right? Thus i decided to wait until SSC than interact so as to understand her as a person because this is how friendships are forged.

Speaking of this, i want to highlight that a certain person has failed to understand this concept of mutual understanding and goes around doing what i will call "KNOWING BUT NOT UNDERSTANDING", im very sure that the bond between people who do this is very shallow, and a friend has to be someone you can trust or you can be yourself around him/her. Dont put up a mask because this a facade, and after they get to know you better, your true colours will be revealed and both parties will get hurt. I realise a certain someone else and i are starting to lose a friend we once knew we can depend on, if we as friends dont understand you, WHO DOES???
