Of the Withdrawal and the Rock-like Cookies
I woke up to the familiar voice of Daniel Ong this morning,irritating.For some reason ive found his voice starting to get really irritating lately.I guess its the fact that his voice is the cue for me to wake up everyday.(My radio clock will tune to Perfect 10 automatically everyday.)So i slammed the "Off" button and threw the blanket aside and staggered out of the room.Got to school soon after to start the week anew.However,i recieved the news that got me thinking the whole day.A friend of mine will be taking the withdrawal form from the office today,and i hope you know what that means.Sad.He told Miss Nirmala about it and i tried to convince her not to sign the form.She agreed with me but i guess she was just kidding about it,she'll probably sign it anyway.Im not sure about the intentions of the withdrawal.Fear perhaps?Of not being able to make it for the As.Or perhaps the area of interest lies elsewhere.Whatever the reason is,the fact is,that he's leaving,and i will have one less friend in Nyjc.Not that im in serious shortage or anything,its just that its always not nice to saw farewell to a good friend.He's the closest guy friend i have in class and it simply sucks to know that he's leaving.He's going to Singapore Poly i think,and taking some IT course.He actually intended to leave after the Mid Years if he screws up his midyear.However,he changed his mind about it and decided to leave now.I wonder how it will feel like to know that he still has 3 more years of education ahead of him while us,the normal ones,will have less than a year ahead to be a student.And when we come out of the NS,alive,we will be saying goodbye to him while we leave the camps.It will be a sigh worth the wait indeed.I guess there's nothing much anyone can do to stop him from leaving.Afterall JC education is really demanding.Argh,perhaps ive made the wrong choice as well.To be honest,if i were to choose my path according the area of interest i wouldve been lost as well.I dont have interest in anything but movies and music and nothing that i will study can benefit me in any ways.Though Np offers movie filming as one of their courses,but to speak the truth,where will you go after you obtain your degree?How often does a Royston Tan appear?You will probably end up like Jack Neo producing lame and stupid movies which insults your intelligence.Oh well,whatever he does in poly,i wish hima ll the best,and hopefully he will be able to create a world of his own when he's there.Good luck dude.Zhuangyi baked the class a bunch of cookies for Valentine's day today.Well,he baked them yesterday and didnt want to wait till Saturday to give them,so he brought them to school and distributed before the Econs class.Its really nice of him actually,and he recieved lots of praise from the ladies.Argh,maybe i shouldve bought the class something too.However,i really dont feel like doing anything.Its not that they are a bad class whatsoever,or laziness.(I'll rather do this than to do more tutorials.)I dont know why,but something tells me that this is not worth your time and money.Oh hell,me and Jiaying will be sharing some chocolates for the class.Hopefully they will appreciate what we are preparing for them.I doubt if i will enjoy my Valentine's day this year actually.Last year was a whole lot of fun,since it was during the 1st 3 months and everyone was so friendly and fun.Gifts,chocolates,toys,cookies,you name it,i got it.That was the first time i recieved something from my friends.(I am glad ive never recieved anything before that because afterall,i was from a boy school,and if i recieved something,i wouldve been involved in a serious homosexual trouble.Thank god i recieved none.)So last year was my first time recieving anything,and that was a really cool experience.I dont think i will recieve much this year anyway,but who cares?I dont care if i recieve anything or not,afterall i have no love for this place.You can call me a robot if you want.After more than a year of stay here in Ny,there's bound to be a thing or two worth remembering?Ehhh,Nope.I enjoy my days yes,but nothing special happened anyway.Back to the point,so there i was holding Zhuangyi's cookies in my hands,thinking about the cookies i recieved last year from Rs.Well actually i bought it from her,since her class was raising fund for the school by selling cookies.I ponned class that day with my friends and we were sitting in the canteen enjoying each other's company.Their booth was in the canteen and they were still setting up the stores.My friend GuiJin was there and i asked her what they were selling.I was extremely hungry for some tibits so i bought some cookies from Rs.(They are from the same class.)God the cookies were expensive.One dollar for like,5 cookies?And they were rock hard.I took a bite and my teeth almost cracked.But since Rs baked those cookie with her classmates,i swallowed everything down.Yeah it tasted good.Those cookies smelt exactly like the ones Zhuangyi gave us today.Amazing how a guy can actually bake as well as a bunch of girls.But these cookies were somewhat different from hers.Oh well,i guess its all up in the head.Just try to convince that they were made by her as well and you'll probably enjoy every one last bit of it.All right,enough of memories.I must head for bed now,if not i might just fall off my chair.Ta.Btw,i just downloaded and watched The School of Rock.Its a nice movie,Jack Black was really funny in that,and if you are a big fan of rock,go watch this movie.Worth every penny.=)

Quotes of the Day:
Dewey Finn,'Your kids have all really touched me, and I'm pretty sure that I've touched them.'

Dewey Finn,'Ok, here's the deal. I have a hangover. Who knows what that means?'
Frankie,'Doesn't that mean you're drunk?'
Dewey Finn,'No. It means I was drunk yesterday.'
Freddy,'It means you're an alcoholic.'
Dewey Finn,'No.'
Freddy,'You wouldn't come to work with a hangover unless you were an alcoholic. Dude, you got a disease!'
Dewey Finn,'What's your name, kid?'
Freddy,'Freddy Jones.'
Dewey Finn,'Ok,Freddy Jones.Shut up!'

Dewey Finn,'[raising his first three fingers] Read between the lines!'

Dewey Finn,'Sell my guitars? Would you tell Piccasso to sell his guitars?'

Dewey Finn,' Give up, just quit, because in this life, you can't win. Yeah, you can try, but in the end your just gonna lose, big time, because the world is run by the man. The Man, oh you don't know the man. He's everywhere... in the Whitehouse... down the hall -Ms. Mullens, she's the man. And the man ruined the ozone, he's burning down the Amazon, and he kidnapped Shamu and put her in a chlorine tank! And there used to be a way to stick it to the man, it was called Rock and Roll, but guess what, oh no, the man ruined that too with a little thing called MTV! So don't waste your time trying to make anything cool or pure or awesome cause the man is just gonna call you a fat washed up loser and crush your soul. So do yourselves a favor and just GIVE UP!'
