10 totally random thoughts

Hey.Havent been updating recently,due to the lack of a social life I havent got much to crap about.However,I have decided to take a leaf from my good friend to do something totally random.

10)Life in Singapore really sucks. I mean,in what other countries in the world is society so results-driven?In Singapore,when a stranger meets you,the first thing they ask is "What school are you from?"If your answer isn't a well-known school,you're most likely slapped with a cannot-make-it tag.Why is the name of you school so important?Arent we taught to be immaterialistic?Werent we always taught by teachers to not judge a book by its cover?so why doesnt this apply in this area?

9)Taylor Hicks won American Idol.And damn he should have.But I'm still sore about the Chris thingie.I repeat,HE WAS SCREWED.And the shocker wasnt the first.There was Constantine,who damn sure should have gotten way further.Something just has to change in order for this to stop.What if a person totally blows the judges away but has a low fan base?Does that mean he should be kicked out over some one who murdered the songs but has a way high fan base?What logic is that?People,we've already seen what that can do.Remember Sly Sim?

8)World Cup starts in a mere 2 days.And I'm looking forward to it.Its the only tournament worth watching,not counting European Championships and Uefa Champions League.Point is,how often do you get representatives from all over the world in one country to challenge themselves to see who's best?And this tournament is the one thing that links football fans all over the world.And the countries which qualify need not be the most obvious.Like Angola,Togo,Ghana,Trinidad&Tobago,Ivory Coast.You'd never imagine them in the finals of an Olympic event or any other international sporting event.And just to balance it off,countries which are missing out are really surprising,like China,Turkey,Rep.of Ireland and Greece.On the other hand,which tournament provides such unique names inscribed on the trophy.Names like Argentina and Brazil and Uruguay.That's the magic of the World Cup.
7)Now.Many of my classmates have told me to delete a certain previous post.Here's what I think.I'll post what I see fit on my blog.And I'll delete posts when I like,not when people demand that I do.If you don't like what's here,then I'm sorry.All posts should be taken with a pinch of salt.
6)Lately I've been doing some thinking.What would my life have been like if certain choices hadn't been made.Like if I really did get better grades for my PSLE.On one hand I can have better relationships with my pri sch classmates, but that would probably mean I wouldnt know so many special people in NCHS.Old friends or new?For me, the choice is simple. I wouldnt give up my current friends in NCHS for anything.Maybe that's cos I didnt really click at all with 6A,save for a few.
5)I really need to have a better social life.My social life is practically zilch,and I only go out with CG and friends occasionally.I have seriously gotta start going out more often.Or I'm gonna suffocate at home.
4)What's it with people' attitudes and the school they study in?How come I always feel that ATS people are seriously stuck up and have a real problem with socializing in the real world?Why do people from 6A give me the feeling that they are always better than me?Is it cause I'm not in a famous or good school?Oh well.I just never clicked with them.I can't really blame them for forgetting me.But whenever I talk to them I have the feeling that they don't really rate me very highly.Wonder why.On the flip side,my peeps from NCHS are da bomb.They taught me to be down-to-earth and have a positive attitude.They indirectly helped me to trust in others wholeheartedly again.They showed me that grades isn't everything.They don't have everything,yet they seem wonderfully content with life.That's the life I want.Not the deadlines and hypocrisy that comes with "good" schools.
3)What's really important in life?Grades?Money?Job?No.I say the most important thing in life is having friends.Friends form the cornerstone of our lives.Without friends no one can be happy.Friends that are there when we are happy and sad,those that are willing to lend a shoulder when times are rough.Those peeps who won't leave you alone in your darkest hours.
2)Oh and a shout out to my beloved VIRGO..who gave me a very wonderful time during ATC.I went into it not being very enthusiastic but my group bonded so well that I was influenced too.I really took home some great memories.Hope that my group will continue to stay in touch.
1)I wanna tip my hat off to my friend KL.It takes guts to confront one's own flaws,let alone tell everyone.but that's exactly what he did.And I'll be the first to say,well done pal.I respect him for doing that.Haha.I know he's probably gonna see this so in order to stop inflating his ego(another potential flaw),I shall stop right here.
