We, The Future

My friend hasn't given me the tickets yet.
Which worries me.
I would feel alot better if I were looking at them on my table right now.

But...he is giving them for free after all.
So I shouldn't complain, right?

I just hope I don't disappoint her.

Zong Yu gave me another VIP ticket today. (God bless you, Zong Yu)
I gave it to Sunny since his sister wanted to go.
And I already have 2 (so I thought...)

Alot of people I know are coming on Saturday.
Good chance to meet new friends, old friends(old enemies) and other random people

Chaos Thursday

A Baptism of Fire

I set a new personal achievement today:
SCORED A 3-POINTER IN BASKETBALL...TWICE...IN A ROW!!

Which I have never done before in my life
(Gawd. I hate myself)

...


Anyway, it happened just after one of my 'friends' said he would cut his balls off, if I made the shot. And I did. LAWL

But he challenged me to do it again, saying:

"If you can...I will definitely, 100%, cut my balls off...immediately"

And I also succeeded the second time.
I can't remember who was more surprised.
Me or him.

For those of you who don't know, I'm kinda (in)famous in my school for being one of the worst basketball players in my year.

Okay. So that was a LOL moment for me. In the end he didn't cut his balls off...probably because he didn't have any.

*cough*

Anyway, we had a photo taking session for our Michaelian Christian Fellowship today.
About half the people there had never attended any of our functions, meetings or morning prayers before.
And another handful weren't even Christians...just random people skipping class.

So quite honestly...that photo session was one of our most successful evangelistic events ever.

Haha

Alive

Report card day was today.
It wasn't as bad as I imagined it would be.
After all, I'm still alive...

But I was amazed at my class's intelligence network.
We all knew whose parents were here before they even reached the first floor.
Early warning system. LOL

Some students and myself were listening in on the conversations between our class teacher (Pn. Komathi) and the parents. So we started building a character profile and deciding on strategies on how to deal with her. Each student was required to give a brief report to us before leaving with his parents.

Teacher's comments to my parents (as I remember it):

"Your son is not serious in class"
(OH SHIT!)

"But he can get good grades if he wants to"
(whatever...)

"He has the brains and the talent to do it, I'm sure he can do well if he wants"
(Okay. Getting better...)

But don't worry, he's better than alot of other students
(LMAO. Better and better...)

And I'm sure some students disturb him in class. Right or not?
(I said NO...not willing to betray my friends)

In the end, my parents were kinda pleased.

At least she didn't mention that I talk too much.
Every teacher has been saying that to my parents since kindergarten.
So my parents took it as a good sign.

But my dad wasn't too happy about my Add Maths results

Idiot-proof

I have to say, I'm very disappointed in my classmates...

This whole bloody mess started when I fell asleep during BM,
since the teacher was absent that day.

I was so damn tired that I slept through 2 periods...and didn't realize that the whole class had moved to the Physics lab, leaving me and Samuel Lopez(who was also sleeping) behind.

Nobody bothered to wake me up...

When Sam woke me up, it was actually already halfway through the period
(and our physics teacher is my school's (in)famous discipline master...Mr. Chong)

We actually grabbed our stuff and started jogging towards the physics lab when I had a sudden flash of inspiration.

So, I called all the school debaters from all over the school and got them to agree that we should hold an immediate practise session for our Law Olympiad on the 11th.

Being the lazy asses that we are...everyone readily agreed.
And we got 2 other discipline masters to sign our permission slip
(both are the teacher advisers for the Debate team)

Unfortunately, this strategy didn't account for Samuel, so I told him to go back to class and wait it out (SORRY SAM!!)

Mr. Chong caught me as I was leaving school.
I had the perfect alibi - which included 9 debaters and 2 discipline teachers.

Selamat Hari Guru

Since we didn't get to celebrate Teacher's Day, our class monitor collected RM2 from us to get a gift for our class teacher (at least)

Being concerned tax payers, some of my classmates and I organized a sort of committee to decide on how our money would be best spent

A small part of the conversation is as follows:

AD: So hey, what do ya'll wanna get for our class teacher?

CK: a pencil box

MS: or just the pencils...

AT: too expensive lah!

CK: then...?

MS: we should give her the same present as Karpal Singh

AT: what's that?

MS: live bullets

LOL

AD: How about a pen?

MS: we could find a broken one on the floor and put it together with cello-tape and rubber bands

CK: or send her a card lah

AT: saying "Teacher, I hate you!"

CK: So bad lah...


I actually just wanted my money back...

Cursed

I'm having a day from hell

First, I accidentally broke a table at school by sitting on it...
In my defence, that table was already messed up

And the manner in which I broke the table was...very embarrassing
Others will be blogging about it too, so I'd rather not mention it here.

They took pictures...

And that's not even the worse part.
After recess, I went up to class late. When I got there, one of my friends told me

"Mark, you're going to die"

I thought he was joking, so I asked him what happened.
The conversation is as follows(more or less):

"Just now, there was a helluvalot of Indians who came looking for you"

"WTF? What for...?"

"I dunno, but they are like...damn pissed at you for something. You better follow teacher out of school later. They will be waiting for you outside after school"

"..."

I still thought he was joking (or lying). Until...
A boy from my class came back and told me that he overheard the Indian boys in other classes planning to whack me up or something. At that point, I felt it would be wise to assess the situation

So I went to an Indian guy in my class:

"What's happening lah?"

"You ah! What the hell you saying about us?"

"Huh...? What are you talking about?"

"You were telling, F*ck all Indians just now right?"

"WTH? No lah...I wasn't even here"

Anyway, he wasn't convinced. He just told me that they would be looking for me after school.
I couldn't concentrate on my Sivik & Kewarganegaraan test paper (like I cared anyway)

So, after the paper...we were allowed to go home early.
And they came in numbers I couldn't believe.
I swear there was like 30 or 40 of them(felt that way anyway)

Everyone told me to run. But I was like...

this is bullshit

I didn't do anything wrong, right?
Take my word on this: I have nothing against the Indians.

If you people are reading this: I have NO PROBLEM with you people. Someone is spreading lies about me. So, come on lah. You got the wrong guy

So I went over to them. Some were carrying helmets for God's sake. One guy put his arms around me and told me

"Don't scared wei...we just want to talk"

oh shit...I'm dead

But after some explaining to 2, 3 fellers. They kinda got the message and let me go. At the end of the corridor, my 'friends' were waiting for me.

"Hey Mark...you're alive wei!!!"

But they were still waiting for me at the front gate.
Luckily, I go home late on Fridays...but I found out from some friends that they still wanted to confront me.


What the hell wei...it's like I got some seriously bad karma from my past life or something.
I don't think it's over yet. Probably have to talk to them again on Monday

Music please

EXAMS ARE OVER!!!!!

Age of Examinations

Examination Day

I hear the clicking of pens,
the creaking of fans,
the whispers of joy and dismay

The drumming of tables,
remembering fables,
formulas and notes read today

The coughs and the sneezes,
infectious diseases,
the teachers are seeking their prey

Some know the answers,
some just pass notes,
and others just sit down and pray

The joyful and sad,
the good and the bad,
confined at their tables to stay

They all come together,
for worse or for better,
and sit for examination day

(This was composed during my Sejarah test)

f:u[c]=K Add Maths

I am highly confident...that I just FAILED Add Maths today

Omg...

Oh yeah, Nizar is no longer the Perak MB anymore...I don't quite understand how a decision that took 3 months to make could be reversed by a single day of appeals.

Democracy is dead. And just when I thought that our country was making progress

Btw, the new Form 6 girls are looking good. XD
-Mark-

Exams!!!

Divine Judgement awaits you
(I should be studying)

I just don't feel like doing anything right now
And my exams are like...tomorrow

I'm screwed, aren't I?
(yes you are)

-Mark-

We're just riding shotgun

I love my teachers...

LOL

But seriously, they are a constant source of entertainment and amusement in my otherwise kinda boring school

For example:

-An Indian Discipline Master during a speech


So I scolded a Chinese boy...and you know what he said?
He said: Sir, you are racist
How can I be racist?? I only whack Indian fellers lah

I guess he doesn't know that you can be racist towards your own kind as well. Strange but true.

Another example:

-Another Discipline Master during class


DM: Class, I want all of you to buy a pink manila card folder for your next lesson

Student: Sir, can you buy for us?

DM: You CRAZY ah? You think I do things like this ah??? Oooohhh....I know what you all are planning. You want to call ACA and tell them that I'm charging you all 5 sen extra RIGHT??!! YOU CANNOT CHEAT ME!!!!


Paranoid feller right...?


And, sometimes...the students can be pretty funny as well.


Here comes the example:

-In Chemistry class


Teacher: HEY. You cannot drink in my class

Me: I'm not drinking...I'm determining the molar mass for H2O


There is always a right answer for every question

and a second example:

-During Sivik & Kewarganegaraan class


Teacher: Why aren't you doing your work?

Student: I've done it before at my Sivik tuition...


Sivik tuition?? What the hell is that??

-Mark-

Don't get White, get Even...

Something really funny happened at school today.
There's some bad news too I'm afraid.

Bad news first:

It seems that I'm not even qualified to GO FOR the Prefect Interview because some delightful teacher put pressure on the Prefectorial Board to get me kicked out.
(as far as I know...I could be wrong here)

Anyway, let's forget that and move on to the story:

Once upon a time...

It was during recess. I had been lining up at the nasi lemak stall for the past 5 bloody minutes, starving hungry.
You should know by now that I'm a good boy and I don't jump the queue
(The 4 prefects standing around me had nothing to do with it. NOTHING).

Anyhow, it's been 5 minutes...felt like 50 and I'm only halfway up the queue.

Then this sonuvabitch (sorry James...you're alright) who's like, half British or something just walks over to the beginning of the line and starts ordering food. The prefects must have been blinded by his bright, white skin.

Until I started shouting...

Mark: CELAKA!!! Kenapa orang putih boleh potong queue ??? Saya membantah dengan SEKERAS-KERASNYA. Sejak BN menjadi kerajaan, semua orang menjadi corrupt ke?

...and I continue in this fashion for a good 30 seconds. Suddenly, much to my surprise...

Makcik Nasi Lemak: NAH! Ambil ini!!!

(thrusts a plate of Nasi Ayam into my hands, takes my $$$ and walks away)

I start laughing. Everyone starts laughing. I feel I've achieved something in the war against corruption. I walk away victorious.

Later, I go back to apologize to the makcik just in case she's seriously pissed off. She makes damn good nasi lemak. I can't afford to have her angry at me.

Mark: Wahai...minta maaf tentang tadi ya?

Makcik Nasi Lemak: Hah? Kenapa?

Mark: Tadi saya mengamuk seperti bangau...

Makcik Nasi Lemak: (Laughs) Takpe lah


See? No harm done

We are Divided

I ended up in class 4sc6, also known as the Sixer Army. This class has it's own legacy in SMI for producing gangsters and other notorious individuals.
As a result, we have 2 discipline masters are teaching Physics and Sejarah respectively.
None of the hot teachers are teaching us either.

Sucks to be in 4sc6

It seems that I have been separated from most of my friends. I'll just have to make new ones.
But on the bright side, this class is the perfect base of operations for me, with plenty of soldiers to fuel my new army.

The takeover begins

*Evil laugh*

The Burning Light

The first week of school has been disappointing...

So far, all I've done includes listening to deadpan speeches, playing Truth or Dare(no one takes the 'Dare' option anymore), silently insulting the teachers and (hilariously) listening to the teachers insult one another*

Also, I'll be applying for prefectship tomorrow. Wish me luck. The prospect of having to explain myself in front of an EXCO board doesn't exactly make me all warm and fuzzy inside.

(They're not too bad actually...so far)

*Refers to the incident in which Mr. Rajan announced in front of the whole Form 4 student body of how SMI's teachers are damn (f)ugly and how he feels like vomiting at the very sight of them

(May have stretched the facts a little)

Fallen

It's 1:12 in the morning...

Went for a barbecue last night at church.
As usual, I slept through the entire afternoon and woke up late.
Then stumbled into church and didn't really wake up till the food was ready.

Had marshmallows with honey and butter...and 2 chicken wings which was probably undercooked. Lots of sausages and a lone potato

The days go by so fast now...

Just got my PMR results - 5 A's 2 B's (for BM and Geography)

Which is quite satisfactory since I only studied for about a week+ and played chess most of the time (I even went to a tournament the day before PMR)

Still, hoping to get into the Science stream. Maybe I'll take IT or Accounting.

My future is unclear
