First Day of School 2013 and Also My Lame Resolutions

*SHAKES MAH BOOTY* Happy New Year Everyone! :D I'm only slightly late. I realize I've been non-existent all throughout December. Well, basically it's because December is a month for cheer, celebration and travel for me. Basically I was too... Busy? I don't think I was that busy, I'm not that fabulous but I guess... Yeah. *shrugs*

So I actually wanted to blog about my First Day In School 2013, and also my New Year's Resolutions 2013. So yeah. This post is gonna be lengthy. But I'll put some pretty pictures of me in uniform below, I swear xD

2012 is over. Whoa. It was just like yesterday when I typed out my New Year's Resolutions for 2012. Which you can read if you click the coloured words. It was honestly extremely silly. Well, none of it came true. LOL. Funny.

You actually missed out on a lot of my December. I don't think I'll get the chance to update now that school has restarted :( So... Maybe when SPM is over I'll do it xD

Back to the point, you easily distracted human!

First day of School 2013. It was great. I'm actually re-reading the Tweets I tweeted because I have a goldfish memory. And also because I had an awesome afternoon nap and it made me forget stuff like what happened at school.

Oh yes, you can read my First Day Of School 2012 in the coloured words (click it!)

I woke up today early as usual, 5.15am. Well, I got up at 5.45am. You see, there is a difference between get up and wake up ;) And I had breakfast. I actually downed a cup of boiling hot Milo because I was worried I might not make it on my van. And then after sweating from the heat of the Milo for 10 minutes, I realized that my house clock is 5 minutes faster. I wanted to slap myself.

So my van arrived and I had a nerve wrecking 20 minutes ride to school. Mainly because I'm not used to being late. And also because I am not supposed to be late. I'm a Ketua Kumpulan and it's my job to brief them every morning. Thankfully everyone was busy today, so I wasn't picked for my un-punctuality. Bro can't send me to school anymore because he's done with Form 6. So yeah. I'm gonna have a panic attack every morning.

Assembly was waddafork. I had a stomachache halfway through and I escaped to the toilet. Thankfully it was the first day and the toilets were reasonably clean. And it was so peaceful there. I'm not saying I'm that kind of weirdo who enjoys the presence of human excretion but the school toilets were far away from the Assembly Hall and it was like I was cut off from the world, because I was alone in the toilet, doing my business. I actually stayed longer than I should've in the toilet. Because I needed to calm down. And to think. And also because I enjoy running away from my problems.

So after Assembly, we went back into our classrooms. Yep. We have classrooms now. NO MORE FLOATING! Woo hoo! But of course, our whole 5 Daisi 2's excitement and joy was short lived when we found out that our classrooms were on the third floor. And it had no fans (the turning kind lah, not the human kind), because the school was installing new roofs. Yeap. Imagine us Prefects, finally escaped the chaos of assembly, climbed 3 flights of stairs, to reach our classroom and find out we had no fans. Or enough tables. Gahh. I was sweaty. So so sweaty. And the available chairs were all dusty from the renovations. Yup. Imagine my joy. *Rolls eyes*

Well, recess was okay. I actually talked with a Form 3 junior and apparently according to my Penolong (assistant) she was mumbling curses at me afterwards. Pfft. Little girl, learn some manners, please. I didn't even scold you. *Rolls eyes*

I like my Form Teacher. She teaches me Additional Maths, and I will try my best to pay attention this year. I have a feeling I can achieve it :)

Oh guess what? I'm sitting beside Phuah Shelvin again this year. I have been, for 4 years straight. That's long. And I'm sick of her face xD Nah, joke, I love this shortie ;) And Dhipa, Ashley, YiWen and Hui Ying are all same class with me! :D And of course those people I same class since Form 1: Queeny and Esther xD Sick of you all!

But of course, I'm not in the same class with Joyanne :'( It's the bloody curse, I tell you. In Primary me and Joyanne shared the same class for 5 years. And when we went to Secondary, me and Joyanne spent 5 years apart. See? The CURSE!

Ahahah! Okay, I'm delirious. We got a new monitor! Because both of our old monitors decided to betray their Monitorial Board and join us Prefects instead. xD Ahahahah! Joke! Chillax, Monitors out there!

Okay, one more funny conversation between me, Phuah and Dhipa in our classroom.

Me: "So Phuah, what's your New Year's Resolutions for this year?"
Phuah: "I don't know. Haven't really thought of it."
Dhipa suddenly barges in: "Hey guys! Check out my new book. Because it's SPM year so I've got to be more neat and organized." She then shows off her book to us. It's actually something like a diary, with boxes that has the date in it so you can note down what happened or what's gonna happen on that day.
Phuah: "So what you gonna do with the book?"
Dhipa: "I'm gonna write down all my homework in here. See these little boxes?" She then writes down what teacher was saying into the box.
Phuah: "I don't think it's gonna work Dhipa, the box is so small. How you gonna fit all the homework inside?"
Dhipa: *shows Phuah the 'enough' sign*
Me: "And how long will you keep it up..?"
*Moment of silence*
Then we all burst out laughing.

Oh gosh, I love my friends xD

Now for my resolutions :)

1. STUDY HARD. No more dilly-dallying. It's only SPM, as Bro likes to say. I can do it!
2. Get Confirmed. You don't wanna let God down ;)
3. Love my family more and try not to anger my parents anymore.
4. Get into STARSTRUCK 2013 at Stuff@School! (Results coming out tomorrow! *Nervous*)
5. Get your Add Maths right. Don't waste time on unecessary things. 
6. Smile at everyone. Try to make wrong things right. 
7. Keep fit. Try to shed off the Christmas Fat. Swim!
8. Participate moderately in Prefects and Scouts. Focus on Academics!
9. Don't skip classes.
10. Practice piano. Grade 8 is in August. 

Yeah. No comment. :P

Now for the pictures I promised. Yeah I stole them from last year. Sue me lah!

I think I look pretty here. HAH. 

Facebook is too bloody slow. Gah. Sorry. No more photos!

It's midnight!!!!

Oh no.

Good night! :P

Not Being a Straight-A Student

So I just went online to check my results for Finals cause my wonderfully diligent hardworking and loving form teacher asked us to do it.

You can check your results here too :
CLICK IF YOU DARE

So... Its disappointing.

I failed two subjects, *gasp! shock! horror!* Moral and Additional Mathematics. I have a long story on the Moral thing (I WAS BLOODY NOT SUPPOSED TO FAIL, DAMNIT) but I have decided not to dwell on the past. I expected to fail Additional Mathematics. I hate Maths, everybody knows that. And I didn't work hard. And I hate myself for doing that. #TheWheelsOnTheBusGoesRoundAndRound

I have a jumbled mess of C's and B's. Wonderful. Hearbreakingly, I did not get an A for all my Science subjects. Not even an A-. The highest I have is a B+ for my Physics. And the worst is a C+ for my Biology. And a very sad B for my Chemistry. Oh yay.

Oh and my A's? Ugh. Don't even talk about it. I have no A's. Only 2 A-'s Sejarah (History) and Modern Mathematics and one A+, which is of course, English.

Yay I got an A+ in English. Yay me. Ugh. I don't even feel happy. I got 93% for English. Sadly. Its not the highest in class. You might laugh at me for my petty complaints and ask me to be grateful. But honestly, I AM NOT HAPPY WITH MY ENGLISH RESULTS. I lost to a boy and a girl (they both got 94%). And I simply hate the fact that they only got higher than me because they got ONE more mark in Paper II. Ugh.

Well, I promised myself that I would post my essay here. Even-though I only got 45/50 for my essay.

The Most Unusual Day

  It was a mild Sunday morning and I had just finished reading the storybook, Thumbelina. I was daydreaming about being small and having adventures of my own on the front porch steps when a slight breeze drifted past and I sneezed. 

  ''Oh Dear,'' I said to myself ''mustn't be catching a cold now, I have school tomorrow.''

So I stood up and walked into the house, to Father's workshop. Father was a doctor but he didn't use pills and modern medicine. Oh no, Father uses his self-cooked-traditional-concoctions made from herbs. He claims that modern technology medicine will only worsen your sickness. He was out scavenging for herbs in the forest today so I simply grabbed a few bottles and drank a mouthful from each.

  A nap would be nice, I thought to myself. Having no parents around the house was such a glee. I opened my bedroom door and was greeted by the sight of messiness. Mother always describes my room 'as if a bomb has exploded in it'. Well, its not my fault that my clothes are spewn all on the floor and my books seem to never be on the bookshelf, is it?

  I threw myself on the bed and shut my eyes. It was not more than a few minutes when I felt something terribly wrong. It felt as if the whole world was expanding and expanding and my body felt hot and tingly all over. What was happening? Was I dying form an unnamed case of fever? 

  I opened my eyes and was greeted by the vast celling of glow-in-the-dark stars. Was it just me or do the stars look further away? I sat up but my movement was disrupted by the mass of cloth that was before me. I felt strangely naked. Oh dear, I was naked! And my brain has just processed that it is I who has shrunk! What in the world?! 

  I stood up but tripped on my bed sheets. I then took a heart-stopping fall towards the floor of my bedroom. I surely would have had a horrific death if it had not been my dirty clothes breaking my fall. I was lucky enough to find my old doll's dress just a few paces away from me. I put it on. After all, no one likes to be naked in their own house. 

  I was pondering on what to do next when I felt something watching me. My heart beating fast, i turned around and my eyes took in the most disgusting and terrifying sight I have ever seen. It was a spider and it was as hugh as my newly shrunk body. We stared at each other for a few heartbeats, two eyes against eight. 

  My brain commanded me to flee, but my legs stood fast and refused to move. It was when the spider opened its... Claws? Jaws? Mouth? Whatever it was, I was sure that it was going to eat me with it. So, i turned and ran. I ran as quick as lightning, over the mountain of dirty clothes, towards the carpeted floor. I could feel the icky spider directly behind me. 

I was running and running when my disfunctional brain realized: 'Too late.' and that I was running to a dead corner end. I touched the merciless wooden wall, hoping for a silver of help, when I felt the spider as though it was creeping up my back. Goosebumps shivered through me as I turned to face my death.

  Its ugly face was still as ugly and it was as if I could see the hunger for kill in its eight eyes. But my eyes noticed something else. At the far right of the spider, there was a gleaming nail, almost half my shrunken height. I had no time to think. I immediately dived underneath the spider, in between its hairy legs, grabbed the nail, and speared it through its abdomen. I did not pause to watch it die but ran away as fast as I could from that dark corner. 

  I paused to rest against some of my books when I felt the wrong feeling all over again. I felt the hotness and the tingly-ness again. Was I going to shrink again? Was I going to explode? I didn't know, but I managed to get the dress I was wearing off before I trembled and fainted on the floor. 

  When I opened my eyes again, my head was near the bookshelf and I was laying stark naked again. I tried to sit up but my head hit the bookshelf. Wow, suddenly I feel so... Big. 

Had what just happened happened? I pondered as i put on my clothes which were left on the bed. Had I just shrunk, and un-shrunk? What an unusual experience this was! I peered underneath my homework table, and there it was, a dead spider, as big as my thumb, with a sliver nail speared through its abdomen. 

  I stood up and ran to the kitchen and brought out every cleaning tool I could think of. I recounted every unusual thing that had happened today. I muttered to myself as I picked up my dirty clothes from the floor, "what an unusual day..."

Well, that's it. My silly essay. I was hoping teacher got my humour, you know? The Thumbelina reference... *sigh* Whateverrrrr. She doesn't care about English. I wonder how she even became a teacher. 

I don't really like my results. And I know I have to work hard, to be the same standard as Dhipa, Shelvin and Joyanne and etc.

But just saying I'll work hard doesn't mean anything. I have to prove it. Like seriously.

This means, I won't blog much. I know. Its sad. I promised so many posts right? Yeah. I didn't do it.

All my broken promises. 

Kayy. Gotta go now.

Bye. I'll be here when I get here, kay? Don't miss me :)

Peace out :)

Disappointed In Results Angel

You Want Us To Burn

So. Yeah. We just had Sejarah (History) Paper 3 yesterday. And I can tell you, it was no fun sitting for 3 hours straight and writing non-stop. Even if it was an open-book-test. Even if my friends did all the research for me. Our butts were all sore and our fingers were about to fall off. Seriously. Dhipa and Phuah wrote 10 pages. I only managed 8 and a half.

Hmm. Kay. Its in the past.

Why I really wanted to blog today was because of what our dear principal said during assembly a few days ago.

He was talking about some of the usual school stuff. I was half listening and half daydreaming. Then he said: 'Saya nak cakap sikit tentang masalah Facebook.' (I want to talk a little bit on the problem on Facebook) And all of the students were like, WUHH? Attention turned on. Full blast.

He went on to say (dang, I'll just translate right away instead of typing the Malay he said. Or did he even speak in Malay? Oh dear. I forgot.): 'Recently, there is a stupid student who went and scold the teacher bad words on the Facebook.' (He really did say the Facebook!) Instant rustles of discussion in the assembly hall.

'I will print out what the student said. And I will show it to his/her parents.' he said. Disbelieving faces all around. 'How can a student write something so bad and so rude about their teacher? The teacher scold you for your own good, somemore you can scold the teacher back so rudely? Not only you didn't learn your lesson, you increased your wrongs.'

Chittering from students, not believing what's happening.

'And.' He purposely accented that single word, to shut the students up 'It has over a hundred likes.' You can practically hear the students going WHOAAAAAAAAA in their minds. Probably jealous. 'The people who like this status are stupid people too. And some more, one of them is a Prefect. The name starts with a "K". I'm going to print out the names of the people who liked it, and I'm going to paste it in front of the school, so everyone can see what you all did.'

Instant uproar.

He then went on about to lecture us about protecting the schools reputation, and how students from other school can see this.

Well, I absolutely DISAGREE with what our dear principal is doing.

I mean, why does the SCHOOL wants to control our freedom on the Internet??

Isn't the Internet a free place, where people get to voice out their opinions? Where people get to connect with other people? Where people get to gain information? Where Teenagers let out their angst?

Why does the SCHOOL have to take it away?

I get that they are unhappy because their teacher got scolded for doing something right, but that doesn't mean you can take away our freedom of saying what we want on the Internet!

And I also understand that that student has issues with the teacher, but that doesn't mean that our school is filled with swearing teens waiting to shout profanities at teachers!

I beg you, SCHOOL, don't mess with Facebook, don't mess with the Internet.

And, another thing. Why do people, especially adults, like to control what we post online?

I got into trouble countless times because of my blog. Apparently people, especially adults, aren't really happy when I say my mind. And post happy pictures of me and my friends. They say being too honest is bad. So should I like, LIE? Should I fake all my posts? Fake all my smiles?

Just stop. Just stop it. Stop controlling us. Stop controlling me. I just wanna blog what I think. Why is it so hard for the world to take it? Its just me. Its just Noel. Its just a young and hopeless Angel. Why can't you guys just ACCEPT??

Teenagers. Are. Meant. To. Let. Out. Angst. 

Just be grateful, that we're not raping people, doing drugs, and doodling on the walls.

Encik Tay Keng Lee of SMK Seri Kembangan, if you have a problem with what I wrote, sue me. 

Urgh. I'm reading back what I wrote, and I'm feeling depressed at my slowly devolving English composition skills.

Maybe they just want to watch our souls burn

Time is running out. I need to study. Finals.

Goodbye. Till we meet again.

Because I Like Going To School

Hey Humans. Sorry for the last two Emo posts yesterday. I didn't mean to drag your spirits down too. Sorry.

Okay. Noticed some changes in the background of my blog? I changed it to fireworks, cause I seriously feel the need, the want, and the crave to fly up to the sky and burst into colorful sparks, giving people hope and relighting their dreams.

Yeah. I'm thinking too much. My blog just seems weird. I feel like changing the whole damn thing, starting from a blank white paper. But yeah... It's impossible to do so (just an excuse for being lazy). So, you'll just have to bear the weirdness of my blog till I have another mood change and decide to change it.

Okay, I've closed the Facebook tab on my browser cause Facebook is honestly too boring. Too many cam-whores asking people to like their stuff... Ugh. *rolls eyes* And I'm focusing on Twitter instead cause not much of my friends use it and I can tweet any crap I want.

The thing I've noticed both Social Networks, everyone is stressing out about going back to school.

P/S: Our new school year doesn't start in September like most countries. We start a new school year after New Year. So its a little weird, but its how we live.

And I'm like:

Face it people, if you don't go to school, your parents are going to jail.

I think I'm one of those weird people who actually loves school. I mean, I'm not in love with my school, its downright crappy. But the idea of going to school can make me smile.

I can prove it.

Some of you may know, I have a brother. And my brother is currently in Form 6 (that's something like Pre-U but I don't wanna go into details). Which means, he still has to wear a uniform and go to school. He's now in Upper-6th which means he's a badass at school. :P #wegotabadassoverhere!

And since young, we have had a clash of Morning Sessions and Afternoon Sessions (not gonna go in detail, but Standard 123 [Primary School] and Remove and Form12 [Secondary School] usually Afternoon Session whereas Standard 456 and Form 3456 is usually Morning Session) My brother and I are 3 years apart, and I'm in Form 4 now and just do the stupid math.

So, last year and this year and a few years back, we were in Morning Session together (different schools).. It was... Interesting. :D When I'm up, I usually get my energy once I wash my face. But my brother? He's a different story altogether. He wakes up. Brushes. Bathes. And stares at his food. He doesn't eat cause he can't. And I? I can gobble up like... A freakin' huge breakfast every morning. Maybe that's why he's so freakin' thin??? OMG. And I think I have the energy to sing in the morning. Sing and hum and do crazy stuff early in the morning (5am)!

Anyways, he hates school, I love school. And tommorow he's taking me to school. Hope we wake up in time. (Not kidding)

And? I'm seriously looking forward to going back to school. I'm Form 4 now, more challenges for me to face. Its the year I try to nab my chance in getting the Ketua Pengawas (Head Prefect) spot on the Prefectorial Board. :] #tryingmyhardest!!1 Its the year when most of the school responsibilities get pushed onto us because we're turning 16 this year. Yay. Growing up.

Okay... This post is boring without any photos. So I'll make you laugh at/with me instead.

Nerdy fact about me:

• I finished packing my bags before 2012 even started.
• I have actually planned a scheme into nabbing the Ketua Pengawas spot.
• I have fantasies of camps and stuff that will never happen.
• I have fantasies of me on stage, with the whole school singing along with me... But with the effects of a concert. (Weird, right?)
• I try to go to school even if I'm sick. 
• I can't live without breaking a rule no matter where I am.
• I have never been terrified of a teacher, unless its Mdm. Heng, my primary school teacher. 
• I... Shall never get a boyfriend after telling the whole world those things above. 

Yeah. I'm such a freaking nerd. I'll continue being a freaking nerd cause I like it too much.

Whoa. I found some photos with me at school. Its Nerdy. I'm Nerdy.

Because I Like Going To School.

Peace
