So-so mood....
Today's a Saturday,and as you all know it's GPS once more.Went to Ipswich,blanked em and went back.More on that later....
What I'm thinking now is changing my e-mail password.Why?My mum's using it,and now she's pointing the finger at me for not checking mails.Look,your stuff isn't mine and SHOULDN'T be there.Don't blame me for not looking out for yours.You're supposed to have your own,not use mine as your "headquarter".Don't give an excuse for not creating because it's too complicated because YOU'RE JUST LAZY.Sure,I'm probably worse off than you are,and now you're whining that you can't create an e-mail because your stuffs in mine.PATHETIC.Lame excuses....And when I'm barely online for half an hour typing you arrogantly assume that I'm "chit-chatting"(which I would deny plainly because it's not the "correct" word which is chatting).Mind you,you're screwing my schedule up and I'm slowly lagging behind in assignments(which I had to make up for lost ground my sacrificing some of my recess and lunches),so don't expect me to wolf down the elephant-load of food you packed AND don't ask why.That question ticks me off because that's a dumb one-worded question that you should often keep it to yourself.
Gah,I'll probably just leave out all the rest,I'm done releasing my anger for now.Little by little's the way,and certainly not Pompeii-style...
Next,something lighter(and boring...).As I was saying,we won all our matches and actually had a pretty good,fun time with the guys from Ipwich.They're cool people,not much vulgarities were thrown at each other,it was actually a good feeling.And yessss,I went alone with the rest on the hour long bus trip to the "court wars",scorelines were pretty ok.And the "wo"man of the match is......ME.Gahh!!Everyone in the A team beat them 6-0 in singles except for poor young me who surrendered a game....I was the only one playing the singles on grass though(in the A's)....
Now there is actually a debate on whether the team was at the right formation.The truth is,for the past three weeks,I'm not playing as good as the whole team.I mean,I got the first loss(not in singles though),surrendered the only game in singles.Ken,the guy who's supervising the 16's,had doubts as well.Everyone in the team's probably asking the same question right now:How did I get No.3 instead of No.4?Of course,even I admit that I'm probably the worst player in the team.However,Ken did say that there's not much separating all of us(which made me feel a little better).As for the 1st IV?When we got on the bus home,I heard that they were trailing.....*sigh* Hope they win(because it's tennis) and silence the doubters.By that I mean the whole school community(doesn't mean I like NC).I mean,when they're losing,I couldn't see much sympathy or encouragement from others,mostly thoughts of :"They s*ck".Probably those people should step into their(1st IV)shoes,feel what is it like to lose narrowly twice in a row.If th played their best,too bad.If they're awful,it's just a bad day......
To end this post,I have to say that I've just got book 4 of VA just out on Monday.Was so friggin happy.Can't open book because hands aren't clean enough(paranoid XD).Must buy gloves for use of reading VA only(I've got all the books).Cost?12.95 each for Books 1-3 and 17.95 for book 4.Ouch,now that seriously burned a hole in my wallet(was thinking of buying headphones as well to watch anime)
Wait,wait....I just found out Shakira had a new album,and I have to say the single "She Wolf" isn't really good.I mean,it's definitely not her best(Hips Don't Lie in my opinion).Maybe hips could lie,but the numbers don't.....
Konbanwa!!

Resurrection
Well,well,I guess you are all surprised by my 5 day break,no?
I'm pretty much REALLY busy now,because there's assignment after assignment.Here's the drama
Today:Chem draft due
Friday:Bio draft due
Next Monday:Geo draft due
September 3:Chem final copy
September 8:Bio final copy
September 10:Geo final copy
September 16:English monologue presentation
It doesn't look that much but I assure you,it's probably causing my headaches,so bad I ACTUALLY FORGOT TO SEND MY FRIEND'S MATHS FINAL COPY.Felt a bit guilty there,but was cleared when teacher was informed of the situation.Don't really feel like talking much about it because I SO wanna take a break from studying.Instead,I'll delight(and maybe horrify) you with plain ol' boring GPS tennis last saturday
Just to let you know,we were technically up against(what others reckon)one of the strongest schools in tennis for our round 2 encounter,and they certainly lived up to that hype.Our 1st IV once more lost by a narrow margin withn 3 wins to 5 losses,with their GPS season so far 0-2 and that apparently is becoming the LOW point of sporting activities.Ooooooooooh,lookie now,early in the season trumpeting all about rowing,rugby,cricket,swimming and now shying away from mentioning everything in tennis and basketball...
I'm not saying that the 1st IV are terrible(Their captain's pretty consistent,2 has a style of a professional,3(and a friend if mine) having EXTREME "Prince Of Tennis" spin XD and 4's kind of a Sam Querrey-type.Problem is they haven't really found their stride yet,and the first few rounds were kind of harsh(from what I heard,they're pretty tough) but I believe once they get the tennis ball rolling,they can't be stopped that easily.
Anyways,so how did the 16A's fare?Guess XD.We suffered heavy casualties in almost every age groups.From what I know,2 of our A teams were left unharmed so far.13A's(I expected the 14 A's to join in as well as I believe they're just as strong in their group as we are in 16's and I know twins fom the opposite side)and well,whaddaya know,16A'S!!Of course,we couldn't repeat last week's perfect scoreline(and I'll probably take the blame XD,you'll know why)but it was still a pretty solid 6w 2l.They had pretty good no.1 and 2 players but their no 3 and 4 kind of let them down.They had a 1-3,2-4 formation vs our 1-2,3-4 formation,so yeahh. ..Our losses came from my doubles match vs 1-3 and no.2's single loss.I lost because I was playing pretty bad that day,and probably relied on my partner too much to provide cover.He was once more on fire and I would have to say it's thanks to him that our pairing managed to pull through so far.No.2's singles loss wasn't because he wasn't good,but I kind of think it was the fitness level and concentration+the oppositions persistence and consistency.Man,5-7 sounds really close,and once No.1 was finished with his match(Battle of the hackers(consistency freaks)which he won in an enthralling 6-4 set)I said to my partner,who was No.4:"Is it ok if you go 1st,I mean,I just wanna rest for a while and hopefully get my rhythm back".Next thing was:Who's the No.3 player?
Great,DR ME OUT??!!Bet their no.3 was surprise that crap player came out.And "crap" was no more.Sure,he was one half of the doubles pairing that cost 16 A's 1st loss,but when it comes to singles,our team's just as good,if not better,in handling things by ourselves.4 wins 2 losses,just 1 more to clinch it.And boy did trying to force me into playing turn around my fortunes.I gave him the "Boom Boom Pow" and he went down 6-1 before my partner took out the other one 6-2.Next round,Ipswich(not the football club in English league..)!!Maaaaaaaaaa XD.
Of course,there's more,but I'll make it pronto.As the 2 A teams left,our names was mentioned,and I wasn't really too happy about it.I mean,I don't enjoy sports being too public when they're not the main focus(The 1st IV for example,are IMPORTANT).Honestly,I still prefer times when I could go about quietly without anyone asking me:"George,how'd you go last saturday?Did you win?"*sigh*.....
Yipes!!Book 4 of Vampire Academy is OUT!!Yayy!!Must...get.....to.....bookstore......ASAP!!Ciao!!
Apologies for boring post,
Georgie WongWong a.k.a "The WongWong"(That's what coach calls me XD)

Love Drunk
Here's something a little different from what I used to write on,hope you enjoy!!
Now,I won't be long,because I've got matches to play...
Okay,NOT as the title suggests(It's one of my current fav songs),I'll probably be giving you some lists of things that are both a little hilarious and can have the 'aww' factor as well as being childish again!!(SUP-PERMAN!!!)
Here we go!!
The 10 ratings of love quotes(and convos)(Gahh!!Anything related to that "l" word,funny,sad,sweet,ect)
1/10
If I'm Superman,then you're my kryptonite(DOWNRIGHT LAME!!)(Made this one up myself)
2/10
For you,milady,anything..(Some medieval movie)
3/10
AAADDDDDDDDDRRRRRRRIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNN!!AAAAAADDDDDDDRIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAANNNN!!!I DID IT ADRIAN!!I DID IT!!(Rocky)
4/10
His pheromone levels indicate he wants to mate with her(Transformers,I think it was Ratchet)(Just gotta put this one in,for fun,and because of Shia suddenly turning a little rosy)
5/10
I love you(it's getting tiring)(Said by countless people)
6/10
Bhut no madder whut I tryed,aye juzt coodent stup dinking abowt Jeenie(Jenny)(Forrest Gump)
7/10
"You're not a wh*re,not anyone's wh*re,but my wh*re.I mean..I love you,and I don't really care about what happened to you before we've met...(Ben to Amy in the park in "Secret Life Season 1 Episode 5"Shortly after he proposed to her and she broke down)(*Note:THEY WERE FRIGGIN 15??!!Few more years Ben,you're moving toooo fast...)

My bounty is as boundless as the sea,my love as deep.The more I give to thee the more I have,for both are infinite.(Look people,let's just say the whole story of Romeo and Juliet ok?XD)
Well,that's it XD.......NOT.I'm trying to think of whether to give a review of R & J because all I've read is actually the manga version.Oh well....
Romeo and Juliet(4.5/5)
Plot:Shakespeare knows....
Summary:Modernised,set in Japan,and best of all(in my opinion),IN MANGA!!I'm soft when it comes to anime stuff,and this one's not so bad really....Art was AWESOME,and Juliet reminded me of Enma Ai(a lively one too!!Maybe that's how she became Jigoku Shoujo) while Romeo's pretty cool.Lines were sapping,but I couldn't give it 5 because it wasn't the full thing and the names(or place)don't sound right.But I have to say,I LOVE IT and I'm planning to read the full thing somewhere in the future.
Alright,time for bed,my ears are sharp and I just picked up someone backstabbing me....I don't want that person coming tomorrow to UQ(where our match is held)and I'm getting a big headache.Till next time..
But now it's over,
George
(P.S Spider-man's my favourite comic character[Not including anime]next up are Batman and possible the dumbest superhero EVER[Kidding],the one who wears his undies outside XD)

Till I Collapse
Right,no story about daily life for today,just a mysterious post which is about me probably needing some help and advice....
It all started when a classmate of mine noticed "my" W910i(using it as storage of files because it had memory stick) and had a hand on it.
Guess what I did:Snatched it back.
No,I wasn't angry or anything,I just had to recover what was "mine"(the B'day gift)and make a little modifications to it.I wouldn't want him to see my phone picture(nothing pervy,people,believe me).
I changed my mobile wallpaper to one which is the picture of,well,me,alone,face covered by black beanie(something like that,but I'm not kidnapped,mind you).He was like:"That's rude,George"(He wasn't angry,just kinda dissappointed XD)So I apologised.Well,disaster averted.
That's not the story,but it played a part of my "hauntings".You see,when I got on the bus home,I felt conflicted between wishes and reality.I was hallucinating,but without drugs or alcohol(I'll probably blame on the coffee I took a few months back XP).One moment I was imagining things and the next I just felt like knocking myself unconscious.It happened all the way till I got on the couch to watch my favourite show at 7.30pm.Whoever was that,I'm not mentioning,but I was plainly frustrated at myself.It has definitely inflicted damage on me and this one wasn't so bad,but the cracks I have are beginning to open.I don't know how long it will last.Somehow I don't want it to be permanent,yet don't want it erased from me.
So guys,probably that's it.I'm having another bout of depression now because of what's happening to me.It's kind of a random event,pulling me away from my own purpose and thinking about its.
Until the lights go out,until my legs give out,
George

On Top Of The World
Post #56 of the world's angriest blog and it's streak is set to continue!!
Just a few things to update on
-Computer
-Assignments
-School
-Tennis
-Songs!!
First of all,dad got a new CPU in the house.I don't really know about the specs that much.All I could say is that it has 4GB of RAM as well as 1 tetrabyte of memory.Dad tells me not to install games,BUT WHAT'S 4GB THERE FOR??!!.Hehe,I have 2 things in mind.Wait,three...Need For Speed:Underground(yeah,I know,it's old),Maplestory(love the sound of jumping) andd DotA(I'm gonna be GOD-LIKE!!!MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA XD).
I'm currently very busy at the moment doing my maths assignment regarding the turtle race and I'm in a little of a rush.I'm ahead of deadline so yeah,but with Geo and chem at the same time,whoa.....
Now,here's an issue:In english class,our teacher asked about bullying,why did it occur,whose fault was it and what should be done.Now,if I'm not wrong,I'd suppose most of you would say that it was the bully's fault,and I would say the majority of the time it would be him/her(yes,girls might sometimes,HONEST).But here's the shock you've all don't want to wait for:One person(and I personally despise him for thinking I'm immature in his terms)mentioned that it was the victim's fault and he(the victim) should "man up" a little bit.And even worse,a couple of other students agreed.
The teacher was dumbstruck...and seriously,that was by far one of the most inhuman answer one could say."Man up"?Dude,like teacher responded:Step into their shoes.He didn't reply back,but I won't be surprised if he stood by his unintelligent words....He really made me feel like beating him up(which I probably wouldn't dare)(he has the height,age and weight advantage while I have a tennis racket XD)and I would definitely snap at him if he ever comes close to infuriating(wrong spelling,I know...)me...
Now,stepping aside from those morons,our GPS season has started and our 16As team (consisting of 3 normal 16 year olds with a 15 year old clueless person with no idea how he got in)scored a "perfect" 8 out of 8 in our matches,dropping no more than 2 games in each set.Here's the scorelines
Singles:A1 w 6-1
A2 W 6-2
A3 W 6-1
A4 W 6-1
Doubles:A1 & A2 W 6-2 and 6-1(there was 2 matches,same goes for next group)
A3 & A4 W 6-2 and 6-1
Opposition wasn't too hard,not too troublesome enough ( I have problems with people who play REALLY slow balls) but had the right ball speed for us to hack our way through.I GOT ACED(and I aced back the next game).Dam*!!I stumbled,was surpised and yeah,the ball spun away from me XD.Felt a bit embarassed.He probably is the Shane Warne of tennis LOL.Luckily my partner showed me how and smacked a winner,and I gave a faster one the next point XD.My serve wasn't that bad,pretty much had an above average day in tehat department,an ace and a double fault in 3 matches by my standards is pretty unusual(no aces and avg of less than 5 df per match).My groundstrokes were horrible(Not much unforced errors,but less than 5 winners in 3 matches is awful...) but were replaced by volleys(Love smashing the ball so much I made one bounce over the 10 foot fence at the back of the court and landed on a roof).So yeahh,next week there's gonna be another one,so I hope I wouldn't get much nerves and just relax a little bit.
In the music department,in "Star Wars" terms,I'm going to the "dark side" XP.Didn't know Eminem had so many good songs,among them the funny "We Made You","The Real Slim Shady" and "Without Me"(mocking Elvis,Britney twice,Batman and Robin,Jessica Alba and Simpson,Star Trek,Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson and a whole lotta others once.Wait wait....EVEN SARAH PALIN!!!),to the angry "Insane","Cleaning Out My Closet" and the memorable "Stan"(feat Dido).I kind of like Dido's voice,pretty soothing."Stan"'s a pretty sad song,talks about a fan who's crazy about Eminem and writes to Slim Shady(Eminem) without receiving a reply(cuz Slim's busy) and in the end dies crashing the car into the river,being drunk and having his girlfriend in the trunk.Sick....
But yeah,swear words aren't really my thing,it's just how Eminem talks about real life that intrigues me sometimes.But yeah,he's in the top 4 most number of songs on my mobile(along with Taylor Swift,Boys Like Girls and Nickleback).
Anyways,7.47pm now,time to go finish my work.See ya!!

My Life In Ruins
Yep,you guessed it correctly,I borrowed the title from the movie...and no,I'm not on a holiday in Greece,looking for Nia Vardalos...
Anyways we went on a geography field trip today to visit the areas under the Urban Renewal Program.Of course,it wasn't some random trip to Dreamworld or the Gold Coast,for me it was business as usual,casually strolling arnd searching for my answers and keep my itchy fingers happy by clicking on the camera button.We visited some heritage-listed sites as well as the suburbs,investigating the changes,the effects and what improvements need to be made.The cost:No school,yesssss(and no..).
Tennis was called off today due to girl schools having their GPS(whut??!!)on our courts.Great,gives me extra reason to hate females XD kidding.Our GPS starts tomorrow and I ALMOST missed out due to not having a "Nudgee"(crud) shirt.Fotunately I called up coach and he says house shirt is fine.I mean,awww come on....can't I wear my lucky Red House? XD
Dad came back yesterday(surprisingly)and the first thing he did was shoo me out earlier than my intended time to leave(I time the bus to near perfection.Of course,as you all know I had the "Just missed the bus" curse ,and it's still with me XP) and now he's "disrupting" my schedule to finish my assignments.I mean,can't I just stay while you and mum go out?You've got pretty bad timing on this one,and the only good thing would be not interrupting my TV day XD(he's leaving on tuesday and TV day's on Wednesday)
Now,for a short review and to the main story(don't eat before reading,trust me :D)
Lord Of The Flies (2.5/5 stars)(depending on whether you like absurdity or not)
Simple:Boys are only survivors,adults dead in plane crash,so they have to live by themselves on a deserted island.All was good at first,until fear overcomes them...
The flaws:No adults?Unbelievable,yet possible.No girls?Unbelievable,yet possible but SOO not.Ok,probably they're all boys school,but that many different ones?From what teacher said,they were on a trip fromJapan(it was during the war) when the plane got shot over the Pacific.On a trip?Unbelievable,yet possible...So yeahh,it depends.This writer I have to say is the best so far in planting a pretzel in my head.It can be fictional yet real.
Verdict:No a 0,nor a 5.so 2.5's fair XD
Lord Loss(3.5/5 stars)
Darren Shan returns!!I'm a bit slow on this series but I can say this:For people who don't really apprecate long,juicy lines,tis one's for you.Short,simple and bloodthirstily sweet.Especialy like the chess game.No wonder people who joke around usually wins.Hmmm,I wonder if that was the reason I beat WJ xD
Right,time for the main story,and if you followed my advice,you wouldn't need to worry about vomiting.
Here's the scenario
[Library]
Received text message:Where are you?
(Thinking it was my parents,but somehow it wasn't their number)
Reply:In the library,what's the matter?
So I fnd out it was one of my buddies and I went towards the fiction sector.Soon enough,he came.
Buddy:Can I ask you a question?
Me:What is it?
Buddy:Are you g*y?
Me:WHAT??!!
Buddy:Look,whenever you hear the word ***,you stay as far away from the person as possible and you're clean,you've got no girlfriends,so I suppose you're g*y
Me:(=.=)That's my nature.and no,I'm not g*y.I understand the facts that led you to that conclusion though.....
Buddy:So you're got no girlfriends,and you intend to stay that way for the rest of your life?I mean,staying single forever?
Me:In my current mindset,yes......
Buddy:Whatever....George got a girlfriend!!
(D-oh...)
Ok,my personal life WILL NOT be revealed,but I assure you,dating is not my thing and I don't really find any girls attractive(awww,sorry XD).Got a problem with that?I hope not XD I seriously hope this absurd rumour doesn't spread around.....if it did,my oh my.....what next....Geez,you people can go out,treat girls like tools,pretend to care for them all you want.Me being single,I think,is the best thing for me so far,so mind you,leave my personal matters alone and mind your own....
Funny,huh?G*y?LOL.
ROTF

I'm sorry,but you're not speaking English(I don't think I am in this post as well...)
Silly title,I know,unfortunately people,this is one post describing how much I despise some people here as well as disagreeing with other people's point of view.
Well,honestly I'm forgetting what I'm supposed to say....umm I'll just start with chemistry.We did our test on wine today,and it involves comparing amount of sugar levels on a bottle of Yellowtail(brand name) and some cheap wine.We also need to test with water as a "control" or something like that.Here's the procedure(A VERY LONG ONE.Probably good for general knowledge)
Rebelein Soultion Z1
Add 1.0ml of concentrated sulphuric acid to 600ml of distilled water and mix thoroughly.Weigh 41.92g accurately of copper sulphate pentahydrate CuSO4.5H2O.Dissolve copper sulphate in the acid solution,transfer it to a 1L flask and dilute to volume with distilled water.Mix well
Wow,sounds complicated,thankfully,we don't need to waste too much times to do it as the teachers prepared it for our group(awwwww...).5 more!!
Rebelein Solution Z2
Dissolve 250g of sodium potassium tartrate in about 600ml distilled water.Add 80g of NaOH(Caution:Heat generated!!!)[Awesome XD Must try this at home LOL].Allow it to cool,transfer it to a 1L flask and make to volume with distilled water.Mix well.
Rebelein Solution Z3
Add 100ml of 1M NaOH(Dang,they're trying to kill us...) to 600ml of water and mix.Weigh 300g of potassium iodide.Dissolve it in a portion of the base solution,and transfer to a 1L flask.Same thing from here onwards...
Rebelein Solution Z4(If you're bored,scroll down because there's Z5 and 6 left)
Add 175 ml of concentrated sulphuic acid to around 825ml of cold distilled water.(Caution!Heat evolved)[Sweet XD].Mix well and allow it to cool.
Rebelein Soultion Z5
20g of potassium iodide and 10g starch in separate beakers.Add 10l of 1M NaOH to 500ml of distilled water and mix well.Use the resulting solution to dissolve both potassium iodide and starch in separate beakers.Transfer both to a 1L volumetric flask.Dilute to volume with water and mix well.
Rebelein Solution Z6(I'm getting dizzy,is it Ribena?I'm thristy XD)
Weigh 13.78g of sodium thiosulphate Na2S2O3.5H2O and dissolve in distilled water.Transfer to 1L flask and add 50ml of 1M NaOH.Dilute to volume and mix well.
Phew,long ones XD.Here's the procedure(shortened)
-Pipette 10ml Z1 and 5ml Z2 into Erlenmeyer flask
-Pipette 2ml wine sample(in another one,use water as ragent blank)
-Heat until boiling and allow it to do so for 30 seconds.Remove flask and allow to cool to room temp
-Add 10ml each of Z3-Z5 in order
-Fill burette with Z6
-Record initial reading
-Titrate the mixture in flask,shaking it well to mix
-Endpoint is cream.Solution will fade from yellowish-brown to blue-grey to cream
-Record final reading
-In water,blank titre should be in the range of 29-31ml,wine will be less
-Calculate reducing sugar content using the formule below:
Dilution factor x Blank titre - Sample titre
Well,that's all!For the chem XD
Now,here's a short one.Got a call from dad on his birthday and he was like:"How's tennis going?You must kill the opponent,no mercy.Just get in there and kill."
Ok,here comes the typical me(didn't actually say this to him,but if I were to do so,it would be these words.Didin't bother to listen any more after his words because they're plain annoying)
"Why are you so obsessed with the word kill anyway??!!It's such a disgusting word.Can't you just use "beat" or "defeat"(which I still consider overboard).If you want your own words to be used,here:I "killed" you for many consecutive occasions and you never played me for 3-4 years until now.Everytime I was "killing" you(meaning I was 4-1 up),you just conceded.How cowardly....."
Extra harsh.But that's not the point.The point is I believe sportsmanship comes first before the game.I mean,seriously,"kill"?Dad,the reason you failed is because you're lacking sportmanship.And I probably lack a lot of that as well.HOWEVER,an opponent should be respected,no matter how good or bad they are.Of course,sometimes the rules of the games are changed due to personal feuds,but on other occasions it should be taken moderately,not too light,not too serious.
If you(not the readers) haven't noticed yet,take a look at the following tennis players:Federer,Nadal,Hewitt,Laver,Sampras,Becker,Agassi,EVEN McEnroe(he had to have it somewhere in his career,otherwise he wouldn't be in the commentary box),all the legends,all the players(mainly successful ones),they HAVE sportsmanship.That's what makes them a better player.Look at the press conferences,do they lampoon(right word?)their foes and do some trash talk?So far in my life,I haven't seen any.It's generally assessing their performances,praising their opponents and showing respect to their next matchup.It's not some madman trying to hypnotize them into "machines",they just know about it.They train hard simply because they enjoy the game,and retire when they don't feel the love for it or got too old.Even after that they can't stay out of the game completely.One way or another they'll be in touch with it.
What makes you win isn't how good you play,it's how much you love it,not the desire to win,but the joy of just getting on court in a tournament,holding a racket and playing a match without really caring about the things going on around you.I haven't really reach that way yet,I don't know why.I don't want to point the finger on anyone,but I think it's time I should tell my parents to back off a little bit,give me some space to breathe in and not telling me anything and just let me go about on my own on court.As far as I'm concerned,I don't like courtside coaching and you're not the one playing.
This saturday's the first GPS match at home against some school from Toowoomba.My back isn't ecovering as fast as I wanted it to be.Oh well,might as well play on for 5 days straight culminating on saturday.Ain't no harm in playing that much right?I mean,I did 11 days straight,why can't I go for more?
O.O Getting late,tomorrow's day 1 of 5 day marathon tennis for me.Gotta sleep.Lots of love to everyone and good luck in your trials.
Love you all always

Right-o,first up,I would like to wish a Happy 46th birthday to daddy dearest.Here's my message:YOU'RE OLD,YOU'RE BALDING,AND SWALLOW THAT.DON'T YOU DARE PLUCK MY HAIR AND PLANT THEM ON YOUR SCALP OR YOU'LL FIND A NEW RULE IN THE HOUSE CALLED "I SEE SMOKE,I THROW EM ALL".BEST IF YOU STOP WITHOUT ME SAYING.
Oww,harsh,XD
Anyways,I'm currently in a bad condition at the moment.I hurt my back went attempting to retrieve a lob.Courts have fences,and fences need steel poles as supports,and you probably know where I landed.One big thud and I was down on my knees.I was kind of disappointed in myself after that moment.I feel I let myself down,my partner down,it's so pathetic....Honestly,we both could have beaten them easy but instead we got thrashed.Excuses?Yeah,my back and my partner's shoulder.We're walking wounded,they're fit and experienced.Blah,I'll get him back next time,in a fair match of course.....
This is going to be a rare short post,because there isn't much.I suppose you guys are gonna be soo happy you don't need to scroll down that much eh?
NOT.I'LL TRY MY BEST TO IRRITATE YOU XD.
Now,school matters.Immature people are annoying me,and REALY immature people(by that I mean younger than me) disgust me.Reason?They talk of girls as if they're tools.C'mon guys,where'd the gentlemen manners go?Can't you guys at least put clubbing life aside for a while?It's school here,and there ain't no girls around campus.If you want to bring your beau or whatever you call them,just protest about this school being all-boys,go to public schools or just shut up.There,3 options for you imbeciles....
Racism isn't really that visible,or should I say adults don't really get the full meaning.....I mean,people here are so cunning,they make sentences look like they're harmless,yet if you analyse the words used closely,it's a massive insult.
And plus,cheering practice every Friday lunch??!!Well,not "every" but at least 85-90%.Puh-leeze,you can call me lazy for giving out this reason,but I'm standing by my words:It's lunch,some people are starving,those who want to go can go,those who don't,just leave em alone.Might as well take out a class period just for it.Don't leave people either weakened or choking over their food.Doesn't mean that you're showing your so called "Nudgee spirit" by attending some cheering practice.
Besides that,don't forget those who DON'T know what were the words of cheering.Don't force them onto it.What do you think you're doing?A good deed to the school or just embarassing them?I sure hope it's not the latter,because if homo sapiens here were wise enough,you'd be in trouble.Consider yourself lucky born in an island....
More on people who just don't grow up(or call me the one who doesn't).I was reading a graphic novel(not manga,sniff...) because I sometimes prefer it over words(but don't mind both).And I was attending geo class,and one of my classmates from China was speaking in Chinese:(translation)"George,you're reading manga(man-hua in Mandarin)?OMG,how old are you?".
Boy oh boy,I almost blew up.He's lucky I'm really focused on reading(another proof boys can't multitask...must....prove.....scientists.....WRONG!!XD).If I wasn't,I'd just slam the novel shut,turn around and,if possible,speak in Chinese:(more translations)"Wow,that's something,coming from some slacker like you who doesn't even bother to really try hard(worse than I am,honest,and I thought I was bad enough..)on any subject,is a total disgrace to your motherland due to your actions(bet he was sent here because of this) AND reading wise,you can't even stand a 200 page,pictureless book.All you did when you wanted a look was flip the pages,sighed and say you can't read it and how could I.So if you EVER see me holding something that you think is childish,either admit you're a moron first before commenting(which I don't recommend at all because you're probably more illiterate than I am) or JUST ZIP YOUR MOUTH.
Anyways,enough "whining".I just realised how dearly I missed anime,and how much I have to catch up!!Here's a list of what I'm going to watch
-Girl who's a close friend of a boy who doens't want to take over his family's possessions and instead becoma a famous popstar.(Someone's pm used to have this anime title name)
-Bleach(Rrrrrruuuuuuukkkkiiiiiiaaaaa!!!!)
-Naruto(Missing it)
-Hayate No Gotoku 2nd Season(Gonna imitate more animes than ever!! There's gonna be *bleep*,*bleep,*Bleep bleep bleep bleep*,*bleep* and more!)
-Zero No Tsukaima(Louise,stop being so short tempered!!)
-Lots more XD
Well,that's all for now.I'll probably give you the anime title for the 1st one next week.Till then,I'll be hoping I recover in time for tennis season which starts next week as well as finishing my assignments.
Ciao!

Reminiscense
Back after 3 days!!Just finished watching my favourite TV show,and I had to admit,I was a little disappointed with the word count(not explaining XD).But anyways,short post today,because it's late and I've got morning training tomorrow.
Tody's mainly school stuff.I just submitted mY maths draft today and avoided detention(clean record intact.YESSSSSS XD).It's a about some turtle race which the turtles so happens to have a path that can be expressed in equations(impossible,no?).We need to do graphs,calculations,margins and a commentary....my draft did made the teacher giggle a couple of times(thanks to the stooooopid commentary I made up that sound like a horse race) but yeah,2 more weeks till final copy is to be submitted.Gonna take my time.Like one of my MSN contacts said:"Procrastination baby!!" XD
Chem isn't really going too well(due to assignment).Now I'm in agroup of 3 and we're deciding what wine to buy(yes,buy...wonder how are we gonna do that).Chances are we'll pick white because it's cheaper.We're gonna do a hypothesis on SO2 levels in normal,warm and cold temperatures.Procedure?Lazy to write,but I suppose you guys get the equation :D plain simple...
And here's the last one.I was with my buddy at the library and I was using the memory stick from the mobile to connect with the USB.He picked up the phone and was like:"Is this your girlfriend?"
*gasp* WHATT??!!Here it goes again....convo as follows
"No it's not..."
"George's got a girlfriend!George's got a girlfriend!!"
"Hellooo,how many people were in that picture??!!It's like one big family..."
(Repeats same thing again)
(While I frown XD)"Just stop talking" (substituted for 2 words,6 letters)
(If I didn't count wrongly,he said the same thing for like 7 times)
Now,tht's not the complete story.I should have told him one of my past experiences and maybe he'll understand what I could do XD.I suppose you guye remember right?It was Primary 5,and I was you-know-what-I-was XD.Anyways,I'll just tell the classic tale:
I was doing nothing,waiting for the 7.15 bell and it so happens I was at the notice boards(you know,the primary block?the front..)watching several of my old friends sweeping(don't worry,not any of you XD).And I was talking to one girl who was on her way to class(don't ask who,I don't remember...)and suddenly after the conversation ended,on of my friends said(you know what he said...).I ignored it at first,but somehow old me snapped,turned around and gave him a good,hard,swift kick to his groin(ouch!!).Ended up at the Principal's office during recess and was face to face with none other than the Madonna-copycat Mr.Wu XD(Does he still sing?If he does,I'll do Britney LOL).It wasn't completely my fault,but I had to apologise and so did the victim(yay!).
Well,that's history.Should have told my friend today about that XD.Now that I remember it,it was really silly of me XD.Oh well,time changed me,and I made sure it didn't happen today XD.Anyways,gotta go.I'm feeling good for tomorrow.And as for the picture on my mobile,la-lala-lala...
Ta-ta!!(Sumo XD)

Capture it,or just let it slip....
Guys,sorry for this announcement:I'm seriously fatigued,and might reduce the number of posts to around 7 a month....just need time to recuperate..
My tennis hasn't been good lately.I wasn't playing that bad,just good and solid,but somehow I felt flat.3 losses in a row(starting with yesterday which I had a partner who was levels below division standard and today getting screwed by an awesome player before going down immediately to one of my training buddies who's actually better than me..).It's not really a good sign for me considering the School tennis season's starting next week(I'm playing 16 A's,another handicap for me,but willing to go head on with the big boys).
I've been rather slack on schoolwork lately.Not that I'm not doing my homework or anything,I just feel like not studying at all....And I'm missing my chinese classes due to scheduling problems(had tennis lessons on thurs and fri,chinese was on fri,so I change fri to tues.Then the week after it was thurs,now changing thurs to fri.Someone's ticking me off here...).
Even worse,I MISSED MY PRESENTATION OF MY BRONZE AWARD(for my academy achievements),AND I WAS SITTING IN THE ASSEMBLY!!!Just didn't know the date...let's pretend I didn't know anything :D.
To music,and I'm liking country at the moment(Taylor Swift count?).Couple of songs I'd like to recommend are "Sideways" by Dierks Bentley and *gasp* "Kiss A Girl" by Keith Urban.Also don't forget my current favourite rock band Boys Like Girls with songs such as "Five Minutes To Midnight","Love Drunk" and "On Top Of The World".
Andddd,like almost every other post,books...HIGHLY RECOMMEND ths book here:
"Dear John" by Nicholas Sparks(4 1/2 or 5 stars)
Summary:Bad boy turns good,decides to join army,finds girl on leave,fell in love,and everything changed after 9/11.Love began to fade,while on duty in Iraq,girl writes to him(they've been exchanging letters since he left after the 1st meeting) telling him she loves someone else,and ta-dah.....(That's up to the 1st half,won't reveal any more)
What I really like about it is that IT'S NOT AUSTRALIAN(honestly,can't find any really good writers...).Kidding.I'm a s*cker for romance,and this one takes the cake.I was sighing often in the 1st half of the book and suddenly found myself crying really hard and struggling to contemplate the fact that I'm finishing it.I don't really know why I cried(thank goodness no one saw me do so...).Could it be.........
GAHH!!What was I saying!!Ok,I cried,boys don't really cry,and I'M AN IDIOT!!I admit it,and I feel a lot better now.. XD
Anyways,end of post.I'll try to write as much as I can(if my health permits..)
Here's to you:
I keep dreaming you'll be with me,and I'll never let you go
(Serious,I did dream of a few of you.Reunion?:D)
