The reason why I still play Chess...

- Carina Jorgensen-

Ouch!

One thing I noticed while playing sports:
When you have the ball...everyone remembers your name

Last week, a vet came to my house to perform surgery on my cat (so it can't breed anymore)
My parents felt it was necessary after she gave birth to her 6th litter in 2 years.

So some Indian guy came, tranquilized my poor cat and shaved off a patch of it's fur.
I didn't stay to see the surgery...

And the ****** kept answering his phone while operating on MY cat.


Needless to say, my cat was thoroughly pissed when she woke up.
The very next day, she dug her claws into my dad's hand.


On a more positive note, I'm learning a couple of new piano songs from YouTube

-Requiem for a dream, from Lord of the Rings and
-He's a pirate, from Pirates of the Caribbean

Said the blogger to the writer:
The keyboard is mightier than the pen

Don't Disappear

I just composed this song today...


It tells a story about a guy whose girlfriend died in a car accident
So he sings to her, hoping that wherever she is, she can hear him


I was feeling emo
But I hope you like it

Please give me some feedback. Thanks

DON'T DISAPPEAR
By Mark

Verse 1
Run towards you,
say I love you,
but you're so far away

Separated, suffocated,
I will look for you,
blinded by the light,
I tried to fight,

don't disappear...

CHORUS
Scream my heart and soul,
love takes it's toll,
but I will wait,

Hear me shout your name,
I take the blame,

don't disappear...

Verse 2
Hold you in my arms,
until the calm,
takes you away

Did you hear my voice?
and made your choice,
I'll see you again

CHORUS
Scream my heart and soul,
I lose control,
why can't heaven wait?

Hear me shout your name,
I take the blame

please don't disappear...

Verse 3
When tears fail to express,
go get some rest,
I'll join you some day

So, when you get there,
pull up a chair,
and save a seat for me

CHORUS
Scream my heart and soul,
love takes it's toll
but I can wait

Hear me call your name,
It's still the same,
don't disappear...

please don't disappear...

Tag...YOU'RE IT

My life is already pretty much on public display.
Do I really need to reveal more?

Oh well...here we go again

1. Do you have any secrets?
Yes, plenty. But I can't tell you...that would defeat the purpose of having a secret.

2. Have you ever tried not eating anything for a few days?
Few days? Would I even be alive to write this if I did?

3. Do you enjoy going to school?
Sometimes. Most of my friends are there. But so are the teachers.

4. Coffee or more coffee?
I drink sometimes. But I don't really like it. I prefer my caffeine in a coke can

5. Laughter or forever smiles?
I disagree with Weisoon here. I think laughter is superficial, but a smile means so much more.

6. Who is more important, lover or best friends?
Can't answer this...they are equally important. You can't live a meaningful life without either one of them

7. What made you smile today?
Watching my cat do tricks

8. The person you like is already attached, what will you do?
Everything I can...if that person is important enough to me

9. Angelic or Devilish?
Me? I suppose I incline more to the Devilish side.

10. How would you see yourself in 10 years time?
At age 26? Hopefully I would have a good job(or a business), an apartment of my own and someone special to share it with

11. Who is currently the most important person to you?
Not so sure anymore...

12. What is the most important thing in your life?
Right now? My laptop and my handphone. Sounds pathetic right?

13. Are you single or attached?
Single

14. What is your favourite colour?
I have two. Black and White

15. What is your wish?
That is a secret (please refer to question 1)

16. Have you wondered what would happen afterlife?
Yeah. I hope I can become a shinigami (like in Bleach)

17. Would you forgive and forget no matter how horrible a thing someone has done to you?
Forgive? Yes...Forget? Never

18. Which do you prefer, spending time with family members or with close people who understands you most?
My family members are weird

19. What is your biggest regret of life
Screwing up my chances with 'her'

20. 5 people you're gonna tag
I rather not

Falling Slowly

Falling Slowly

A really great song by American Idol finalist Kris Allen.

Even though eveyone knows that Adam Lambert is going to win...this song is still a good one

Btw, this is only an audio recording. And you might wanna turn my playlist off first

Tactical (part 2)

Went to see Sunny at the hospital today.
I can understand why he's bored...poor kid only has a handphone to keep him company

And the nurses, although very friendly, probably contribute to the rising number of hospital fatalities.

LOL

Sunny was pressing the 'Patient Distress Button' to get some painkillers.
The nurses didn't come until 5-10 minutes later.

By that time, a patient could have suffocated, bled out, had a seizure and/or died

But I must reaffirm that they were very, very friendly.
Just that their response time leaves much to be desired.

Anyway, he seems to be in some serious pain.
So I talked and talked and talked to keep his mind off things.
Should have confused him enough to last several days...

Tactical

For those of you who don't already know:

Sunny Phang is currently in Fatimah Hospital after breaking his leg by doing a front flip in the school field.

(They don't call it breakdancing for nothing)

Anyway, he's scheduled for minor surgery later today.
So please say a quick prayer for him.

Actually, if you think about it...there's no such thing as minor surgery.
Surgery is surgery

School is damn, freakin boring without him...
so pray that he makes a quick recovery for my sake

Over and out

Family of Misfits

During assembly today, the prefect-on-duty sang the Negaraku SO BADLY that many felt that he ought to be arrested for insulting the national anthem...or disturbing the peace...or causing mental duress

It was THAT bad.

I couldn't help laughing my head off. As a result, I was reprimanded by the discipline master later during his class.

I seem to be using the word 'discipline master' alot recently.
Maybe the rebellious side of me is coming out?

Oh yeah, my cat gave birth...again.
I found 2 kittens (1 grey and 1 brown) sitting on my doorstep this afternoon.

-The brown one is named Gandhi
-The grey one is Mandela

See? I'm not a racist
-Mark-

Fading Lights

I'm feeling depressed again.
no one loves me...

And I don't even know who I am or who I want to be anymore
It's a feeling that comes and goes

Wish I knew how to make it go away

End of Me

Just finished playing my National Age Group tournament in KL.
Didn't do so well this time...
Arrived in Ipoh at 1:00 am Monday morning
Slept in school the whole day

Also, saw Sonia last week at my school.
She was taking part in some 'Pertandingan Puisi & Lagu'
Haven't seen her for almost 3 years now...so it was good to finally see her again

Currently into Russell Peters right now. The guy is a genius. Makes me laugh every time. Unfortunately for my friends, I memorized entire videos of his jokes and recite them everyday at school

(playing chess has blessed me with an excellent memory...for unimportant details)

My social and academic life is as usual, down the toilet bowl...
I no longer believe that love is always enough

And considering the state of our country's political situation...
even Iraq looks like a safer place to live
