i am convinced that my time in school will be better off being spent outside of it. i am irritated at the fact that i am wasting my time in that place. but then again, i dont want to ever leave this school. it's so ironic. yes i noe. it's so ironic it's irritating me. today i spent school time in a daze. this is the aftereffects of watching a 3am world cup match. anyway, why cant all world cups be held in asia? after all, we have about half of the world's population. wouldnt it make more sense (and money) to have the world cup in the place close to the time zone of the majority of audiences. i mean, 1-tenth of China's population is greater than the individual populations of every single country competing in the world cup with the exception of the USA, Japan and Brazil. and im sure at least 1-tenth of the population can afford cable. after all, why wont the chinese be watching? they would watch every Japan match and hope they lose terribly to pay for what they did to them during WWII, they would watch every USA match and hope they dont interfere just in case China decides to invade Taiwan, they would watch every Brazil match and hope that they get trashed 4-0 (the scoreline at which China lost to the reigning champions in World Cup 2002). anyway, i am digressing.
back to school, it's the third day of school already. time is flying really fast. soon it will be prelims. i have half a mind to install a countdown on my blog dating how long it is to prelims, but then, i risk incurring the wrath of hundreds of my fellow batchmates, who like me, have yet to realise that midyears are over, much less prepare for prelims. i love days where there are no science lessons, or just one science lessons. im so sick of the sciences that i am convinced that i will only take one science in JC, which is an utterly stupid decision considering that i have spent my sec school life taking trip science...well, ppl make mistakes.
the Da Vinci Code is sitting on my computer desk right now. i have to admit, Dan Brown is a genius. it's too bad he's blasphemeous, slanderous and controversial in a bad way. best thing is that he calls himself a christian! how utterly flabbergasting (if there's such a word). it's mind-boggling to a large extent. so he calls himself a son of God, worships Him, goes to church and gives offering and he defames his own God! how weird! case of split personality? it's a good book. except i think i cant comment fairly yet since i've only read to the part where the adventure just began, at the Louvre, but i have to say that so far, the book is quite a page-turner.
well, enough of blogging, it's high time i got to doing my (holiday) homework.
afterthoughts:
Spain lost! and Brazil won! the world cup is intriguing and unfair, esp Italy! (sorry derek)
my specs are too tight...
please sign up for grad nite! or we'll have to downgrade to a lousier hotel!
