Predicament
"You roamed down the desolated interminable path with despair and agony; turning back, grimacing at me with vexation and hatred. Deep down, I felt a blustery wind blowing into my heart. I watched you from far, helplessly, with gloom and guilt glutted my heart..."
"I plodded down the dingy path, which seemed interminable, glancing apprehensively over my shoulder. I hoped to see a familiar figure flitting towards me; but all I saw was a desolated labyrinthine street..."
"Despite endeavouring to achieve my goals, I failed to succeed. I put a smile on my face, trying to facade my exasperations and how wretch I am..."
"I've been indulging in complaining, this bad habit subconciously became my past time..."
"Hey! Can you stop being pompous and conceited?"
"I've been afflictive and spiteful - i'm indulging in spiking him!"
"I'm perplexed!"
"I want to learn how to be altrustic and imbue compassion!"
"That's my disposition, it's involuntary!"
"I've been contemplating what to do at the end of the year!"
Those quotes resembles my thoughts and feelings and the situation I'm facing now. Well, I just don't feel like typing here directly. Well, well, well, my results are terrifying! What else do I want to say? I'm despondent and sunken? Eh, I'm not sure about it myself either!
I'm tired! Hong Sheng has wasted my time today. Haa! GOOD BYE!

八十層樓 (Written in Chinese Traditional Character)
有個故事是這麼說的......
有一對兄弟，他們的家住在八十層樓。
有一天他們出去爬山，回家的時候，卻發現大樓停電了！雖然他們揹著一大包的行李，但看來沒什麼選擇，於是哥哥對弟弟說：「我們爬樓梯上去吧！」
於是，他們就揹著一大包行李開始往上爬。到了二十樓的時候，他們開始累了！
哥哥告訴弟弟說：「包包太重了，這樣吧！我們把它放在二十樓，先爬上去，等電來了再坐電梯下來拿。」，
弟弟說：「好！你真聰明！」，於是他們就把包包放在二十樓，繼續往上爬。
卸下了沈重的包袱，輕鬆多了！他們一路有說有笑地往上爬。
但好景不常，到了四十樓，兩人實在累了，想到只爬了一半，往前看，竟還有四十樓要爬，兩人開始互相抱怨，指責對方不注意停電公告，才會落得如此下場。他們邊吵邊爬，就這樣一路到了六十樓。
到了六十樓，也許是累得連吵架的力氣都沒有了，哥哥對弟弟說：「只剩二十層樓了，我們就不要吵了，默默地爬完它吧！」。
於是他們安靜地繼續走，終於，八十樓到了！到了家門口，哥哥擺出了一個很帥的姿勢：「弟弟，開門！」，弟弟說：「別鬧了！鑰匙不是在你那兒嗎？」 ......，結果，如你所想的，他們把鑰匙留在二十樓的包包裡了！......
有人說，這個故事其實在反映我們的人生。
二十歲之前，我們活在家人、老師的期望和期許之下，背負著很多的壓力、包袱在走，自己也不夠成熟有能力，因此步履難免不穩。
二十歲之後，離開了眾人的壓力，卸下包袱，開始全力追求自己的夢想，就這樣過了愉快的二十年。
可是到了四十歲，發現青春早已過去，不免有許多的遺憾追悔，於是開始遺憾這個、惋惜那個、抱怨公司、抱怨社會、抱怨政府...... ，就這樣在抱怨遺憾中度過了二十年。
到了六十歲，發現人生已所剩不多，於是告訴自己，不要再抱怨了，就珍惜剩下的日子吧！於是默默地走完自己的餘年。
到了生命的盡頭，才想起自己好像有什麼事還沒完成......，原來，我的夢想還留在二十歲，沒有完成。你也是如此嗎？
想想自己的夢想是什麼？最在意的是什麼？不要到了四十年後才來追悔。
想一想希望將來的自己和現在有何不同，就去做吧！......把握現在，記得，今天就是禮物。

Tremors felt in S'pore after massive quake in Indonesia
Sep 12, 2007
TREMORS were felt in many parts of Singapore and scores of office workers fled from high-rise buildings soon after a powerful earthquake hit Indonesia on Wednesday as authorities issued a tsunami warning.
The undersea earthquake, which hit at 6.10pm (7.10pm Singapore time), struck in the sea some 100km south-west of the city of Bengkulu, the US Geological Survey said.
The US Geological Survey initially said on its website there was a quake measuring 8.0, and then a short time later said there was a quake measuring 7.9 at slightly different location causing confusion about the number of quakes.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre has issued a tsunami alert for the entire Indian Ocean region.
The Hawaii-based centre said a watch was in effect for the entire area including Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka, Thailand and the Maldives - countries all affected by the devastating Dec 2004 Asian tsunami.
Malaysia and Sri Lanka have issued tsunami warnings on Wednesday after an earthquake in Indonesia and told people to stay away from beaches, while India also issued an alert for its remote Andaman and Nicobar islands.
Sri Lanka was battered by the 2004 tsunami that hit the Indian Ocean rim.
Australia also issued a tsunami warning for its Christmas and Cocos Islands in the Indian Ocean, urging people to move out of the water and away from low-lying coastal areas.
Several buildings in Padang in West Sumatra were reported to have collapsed, according to Global TV.
Tremors in Singapore
Many readers rang The Straits Times hotline to report tremors felt in Marine Parade, Punggol and Serangoon. Some also reported cracks opening on the roads
'My fish tank was shaking. The water spilled out,' said Mr Lim who lives in Punggol.
Mr Robert Chua said many of neighbours ran out from their flats in his block and gathered in the open.
Another office worker in Toa Payoh, Ms J.W Chen told The Straits Times: 'I was standing and reading the newspapers when I started swaying and felt giddy.
'Then I looked up and saw the big aircon duct moving. The light boxes and other air ducts and water pipes also swayed a few inches from their still position non-stop for a few minutes. My colleague and I didn't want to wait and see, so we got into the lift and rushed out to the street across.'
An AsiaOne reader sent in this posting: 'I am still at my office in Parkview Sqaure in Bugis. I felt the building swayed but I thought it was just me. My sister called me 20 minutes later and told me that Indonesia has been hit by a 7.9 magnitude quake. So that explained why I felt dizzy earlier.
'We are still working at our office here. Hopefully those people directly hit by the quake are safe.'
Fear of tsunami across South-East AsiaIndonesia was the nation worst hit by the earthquake-triggered tsunami of December 2004, which killed some 168,000 people in Aceh province alone.
The archipelago nation sits on the Pacific 'Ring of Fire' where continental plates collide, causing frequent seismic and volcanic activity.
Tremors were felt in many parts of Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand.
'Earthquakes of this size have the potential to generate a widespread destructive tsunami that can affect coastlines across the entire Indian Ocean basin,' the Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre said.
'Authorities in the region should take appropriate action in response to the possibility of a widespread destructive tsunami.'
However, the head of the Indonesian meteorology agency said that the threat of a tsunami had likely passed.
Asked whether it was safe to say the threat had passed, the agency chief Suharjono told ElShinta radio, 'We think so.'
'Because if we look at the distance, it (the epicentre) is not even 200 kilometres away, and it would only take some 20 minutes to reach the coast,' he said.

Police, SCDF receive 100 calls on tremors from public
The public is advised that there is no cause for alarm.
The police and Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) received over 100 calls from the public reporting tremors that were felt across Singapore after a massive 7.9-magnitude earthquake struck Indonesia and sparked tsunami warnings around the region.
The tremors were reported at about 7.15 pm on Wednesday, said a police statement.
The Singapore Metereological Services confirmed that an earthquake occured in southwest Sumatra and registered 7.9 on the Richter scale.
Police advise the public that there is no cause for alarm and ask them to stay calm should they experience any tremors.
It also issued the following steps they should follow when tremors occur:
If you are inside a building:
- Take cover under a table
- Keep away from items made of glass or any hanging object
- Do not use the lift
- Do not use any naked light, in case there is a gas leak
If you are in the open, stay there.
After vibrations have stopped:
- Stay away from an exposed electrical cables, hanging glass objects

Alright, that's so evil.
No. That's the day she has been waiting for. Finally, she's could do the practical on clotting. The action of thrombin could be seen and the threads of insoluble fibrin could be seen. Serum is left behind but wait, all she saw was shiny, strawberry, delicious red blood.
Well, that's so LAME. But ya, a nice way to begin my blog with something just happened! Haa! Anyway, prelimnary examination is going to end tomorrow with Biology Paper One as finale.
I feel so relief all of a sudden. A few days back I feel so tensed up! Adrenaline has secreted. Arwww...
Hmmm... I FEEL SO WEIRD. Well, the mixed feelings in me.
The feeling of I can't tell others that I'm missing them badly and I must control myself not to miss them if not it'll affect their emotions... WELL.
The feeling of being guilty for laughing at someone with sarcasm after I realised that he was sad for other reasons.
The feeling of a feeling that I can't express in words.
MY SKY IS OVERCAST AGAIN. No sooner or later, heavy downpour will take place. I don't want it to happen. I want the wind to blow the heavy dark clouds away. Well... SIGH!
I'm not going to be emotional.

Boohoo... SIGH
ALL THE SADNESS CAME BACK ONCE AGAIN...
I thought that I'm so FINE. Well, not till a few minutes ago.
Hmmm. MY TWO GOOD FRIENDS ARE SO EMOTIONAL! AHH! Can't cheer them up. :(
I've tried my very best. But I failed! I failed to be a good friend. Sorry to the two C=Cs.
Well, the next thing I'll use the word "you" as the other party. So don't be offended. Because I don't think the "you" will ever read my blog.
I could no longer used the secret code to represent you. It's no longer a secret, you used it yourself. You called yourself with that name. Memories floats onto my mind. I used to think that you are so great. But now, everything is destroyed. Luckily there's another secret code to represent you. Only Shitstead and I know. I won't care about you anymore. I've said that countless times. But I don't mean it. I want to mean it, but I can't. I just can't. WHY??? I'm a liar. I've lied to myself countless times that I DON'T CARE. Well, will I mean it this time?
I was all right these days. I was. I was 10 minutes ago.
Well, I guess I'll be fine again later. Haa!
Anyway, try to recognise my backview if you can! Get what I mean? Haas! I doubt some people couldn't even recognise my front view now, except my parents, my elder brother, 4Hybridians and all those who saw me on 4th September. And most importantly, the one who changed my backview and front view. LOL!
MOST IMPORTANTLY, CHEER UP MY EMO BUDDIES! HAA!
GOOD NIGHT!

HAPPY TEACHER'S DAY
HAPPY ACES DAY
HAPPY FRUIT DAY
Well, HAPPY DAY! Hmmm, all the Happy whatever day were celebrated yesterday.
ACES DAY CELEBRATION:
Walk around the school compound and recall what happened for the past four years.
It was certainly a significant walk. All the memories float onto my mind. Anything and everything that happens everywhere in school. All those rousing activities and disputes came into my head. When I think about the laughters, it will make me cry; when I think about those disputes and misery, it will make me laugh and feel stupid! Well, I LOVE my school.
Telematch- Pass five 4kg red balls from the last person of 4I to first person of 4A, at same time pass five 3kg yellow balls from first person of 4A to last person of 4I. And vice versa.
It was hilarious! All the teachers joined in. Even the principal. HAA! It was more like competition between the red and yellow balls. But we all enjoyed it.
After Telematch, we had to go back to class. We were told to go back by Spiral Stair case. On the way, I saw Mr Tay and I shouted, "HI MR TAY! HAPPY TEACHER'S DAY!" He replied, "HELLO! HAPPY TEACHER'S DAY!" Haa! GET the joke? Nevermind if you don't get it. Hmmm, there were congestion along the way. When we reached the spiral staircase, we understood why there was congestion. The secondary 3 juniors and teachers were standing along the steps and were cheering for us. There were banners that written "ALL THE BEST FOR O LEVEL!" That was so touching. Along the way, Pearl gave me a note which written: All the best for your O Level. When I was at the third level, my dance juniors shouted, "QIANYONG! 我们爱你！(We love you!)" I burst into tears.
Free period! Well, I went to helped my juniors for make-up. But ended up I just stood there. I'm an eyeshadow-noob. Haa. Tell me to apply for you if you wanna disfigure your face! HAA! I accompanied my juniors to backstage before the concert.
TEACHER'S DAY CELEBRATION:
At 11am, the concert began with the Principal's Speech.
The stage curtain was closed. My juniors were filled with anxiety. I was there comforting them at the backstage. I even went to the centre of the stage to comfort the juniors posing on stage. When I heard the audience claping, I thought that the curtain would be opening in no time, so I quickly rush to the back of the hall. The audience enjoyed the dance! I'm so proud of my daughters and granddaugthers. I went to backstage to welcome them when they finished dancing. I met Lincoln and Nicholas there.
We all walked to the back of the stage together. It was choir performance. But we didn't pay attention. Stella and I were teasing Nicholas. We bought his CD, echolon band production, $6 each, profits go to IMH. (Advertising!) We teased him by asking a lot of stupid questions. Lincoln gave us a not-amused-face.
After that was string orchestra performance, followed by Game. We must guess who's the hidden teachers in the pictures. Haa! After that, Si Jia and Astrid perform. WOOHOO! CHEERS FOR THEM! Followed by Video, which was an incomplete one. After video, it was cake-cutting session. Gladys, the NC Superstar was supposed to sing for the Finale, but she disappeared. So the concert ended abruptly.
FRUIT DAY CELEBRATION:
Everyone got an apple.
Then home sweet home.
I went back to Punggol Primary. I saw Hui Yin, Eric and Hwee Yon on my way. But when I reached Punggol Primary, all the teachers had left. I saw Jia Hui and Phelia. I met Wei Xun, Bo Wen, Terrence, Zheng Hui at the lift. I walked around the ground floor with Jia Hui and Phelia. The school compound was so unfamiliar. The basin in the toilet was so low! Haa! Then we took the lift with the boys illegally to the fourth level. We walked around and took the stairs down. The School Public Announcement System annouced that school was going to close in two minutes time. So I went home.
