Panic!

yes yes. i know i haven't really done a proper post in like eons. fine. people out there readying their guns to blast me already. fine. i'm doing a proper post.

but speaking of proper posts, my 3 days of "not so proper posts" aren't really as bad as BeNg's blog isn't it? his blog is like www.lyricsdownload.com. just that its limited and all. right. crapping here.

i'm asking myself what the heck should i write on. and then i suddenly think that, hey!, i haven't been writing on any particular thing for a long time. all my posts are just random bits that come to my mind. its all just smoking. like what all of us do in essays. so then i think that blogging can help in my language skills and writing skills because i don't really use those type of unreadable language although sometimes i do. but hey! look! that's one full paragraph of crapping! woah! there are rappers, then there are crappers. wait. ok. nevermind.

yesterday. one day of not blogging. unusual. very unusual. i actually wanted to stay up to blog, but there was 987 FM's Front Row Friday interview conducted by Shan Wee and i was kind of weighing what was more important. and i decided. to go to bed. yes.

but back to the topic. if there is a topic in the first place. anyway. yes. yesterday i didn't blog because of my school. my school asked us (secondary three pupils) to attend a dance. supposedly an "enrichment" programme. but hey. it is enriching. "enriched" NUS with our money. $10 dollars per ticket. and people like Lian Seng who slept throughout the performance; well, its like you're paying $10 to torture yourself. i mean. wait a minute. how can the school force us to attend an "enrichment" programme. incredulous i say. what can a dance do? enrich us with what? on the contrary, instead of "enriching" us, its more like draining our energy. "enrich"? please. i beg to differ.

but well. the dance wasn't all that bad. there were some nice parts. take the music for example. some of the performances were using quite cool music. and mixing it up to make it sound great. it was something like Buttons by The Pussycat Dolls, linking to SexyBack by Justin Timberlake and stuff like that. some new songs. yes. but wait. that was the music yes? ok fine. only the music was good. dance was not good. yes.

ok. today. today in a glance. wake up, eat, bathe, tuition, lunch, more tuition, use internet, do work, watch TV, do more work, blog. currently, i'm at "blog". yes. so much tuition and work. shows that i'm getting all ready for the exams. the horror. now back to last time when i was talking about how unimportant school was. Bill Gates didn't study, he's the world's freaking richest guy for crying out loud. now convince me that school is useful. can't? i say school doesn't affect your education. now you must be thinking that i'm talking rot. now wait. school and education are two different things. school aids in your education. but well, Bill Gates has his education, he just didn't go to school.

why do i say school doesn't necessarily make you smarter? as Mark Twain says (and supports my point) "I have never let my schooling interfere with my education". there you have it.

ok. this is probably my longest post in a long time. now a song

Goodbye My Lover - James Blunt

Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.
So I took what's mine by eternal right.
Took your soul out into the night.
It may be over but it won't stop there,
I am here for you if you'd only care.

You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I've kissed your lips and held your head.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I've been addicted to you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer but when I wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be

I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.
I'd be the father of your child.
I'd spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,
And I love you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bear my soul in time,
When I'm kneeling at your feet.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.

and another song

Speed of Sound - Coldplay

How long before I get in?
Before it starts, before I begin?
How long before you decide?
Before I know what it feels like?
Where To, where do I go?
If you never try, then you'll never know.
How long do I have to climb,
Up on the side of this mountain of mine?

Look up, I look up at night,
Planets are moving at the speed of light.
Climb up, up in the trees, every chance that you get, is a chance you seize.
How long am I gonna stand,with my head stuck under the sand?
I'll start before I can stop, before I see things the right way up.

All that noise, and all that sound,
All those places I got found.
And birds go flying at the speed of sound,
To show you how it all began.
Birds came flying from the underground,
If you could see it then you'd understand?

Ideas that you'll never find,
All the inventors could never design.
The buildings that you put up, Japan and China all lit up.
The sign that I couldn't read,
Or a light that I couldn't see,
Some things you have to believe,
But others are puzzles, puzzling me.

All that noise, and all that sound,
All those places I got found.
And birds go flying at the speed of sound,
To show you how it all began.
Birds came flying from the underground,
If you could see it then you'd understand,
Ah when you see it then you'll understand?

All those signs,
I knew what they meant.
Some things you can invent.
Some get made, and some get sent,

Ooh? Birds go flying at the speed of sound,
To show you how it all began.
Birds came flying from the underground,
If you could see it then you'd understand,
Ah, when you see it then you'll understand
