History Blues

To the cracks I see near the air conditioning unit,

GAWD...I swore to update my blog more often and I didn't do it. I kinda put it aside after having so many things going on with life.

Anyways, exams are here! Rather, it is ongoing; History is TOMORROW! *wide eye*
Even though the teacher was nice enough to give us to scope of questions, I still couldn't find the mood to study.
The essay questions I would be taking are:
1.Penyebaran Islam di Makkah (I still remember bits and pieces of it from the finals last year)
2. Penentangan Pemimpin Tempatan terhadap British (made a story out of it and tortured bro by asking him to listen; will do the same with Matt, my toy dog (yes, I own a toy dog; many in fact). I'll be taken as a psychopath if anyone sees it)
3. Pilihan raya.

My first attempt to study history was after reaching school. Took the Form 4 textbook out of my bag and tried reading it. Got to chapter 4 and fell asleep. Woke up when the teacher came into the class and tried again. Fell asleep after 5 minutes.
Woke up later for EST paper 2.
2nd attempt was during the car ride to Giant. Nothing went in.
Such a sad case, huh?

The whole afternoon was spent at Giant. It involved mom, a large cart of groceries (two months worth to be exact) and me feeling really sticky.
The electricity stopped again during the second half of the day in school. Geez, is the school that poor not to be able to pay for the electric bills?

Back at home, I fell asleep after taking a long and warm shower. Was woken up abruptly when bro came into the room and asked if he could have my hotdog.
I've been wondering about this for quite some time; do guys really have black holes for stomachs? I always hear them complaining about being hungry! Where does all the food go?

Watched the semi-finals of American Idol while munching on that hotdog of mine. I'm glad that Syesha got kicked off. I don't know why, but I just don't like her. Mom was glad that she's out. The two Davids are out to battle each other for the title.
I like David Cook...*drools* XD
He has the bad boy look that I like; so does Robert Downey Jr. of Iron Man. :X

Back to history. Now, I'll just have to memorize the whole voting process and I'm good to go. Yeah, there's this part of the structure question involving the pentadbiran negeri and persekutuan thingy...Guess I'll have to read up about that too. GAHHHHHH!

And I found out that my blog picture doesn't show. The background pic, I mean; I don't take pictures of myself in real life. Yeah, I'm that UGLY.
I could go blog skin hunting now...But any more procrastination on my studying would make me lose more sleep later. I'll just find one that I like and change it tomorrow then.

Feels less crappy; but crappy nonetheless,
Lyn.

Sick

I'm still speechless today. It's bad to inherit those large tonsils and white hair from my dad; why can't he give me genes that are an advantage to my looks?!?!

Anyways, I'm feeling less crappy now than 12 hours ago. I shouldn't have gone to school.
We had a really dumb test today, chem. I have to do well in this subject, cause it's the main component in the course I want to take for further education. If it wasn't, I couldn't even give a damn about it.
Sitting in class was like sitting in a stove today. To everyone else, the weather was cool and nice; but with my body raging war on whatever that has infiltrated the 1st line of defense, it had become unbearably hot and cold at the same time. My skin was cold to the touch but I was boiling hot inside. Thanks, my whacked body.

I practically slept the whole afternoon away; spending a fraction of my time sleeping on the leather couch in the tv room and the better part under my duvet in bed. The sky was dark by the time I woke up.

School's being the host for the state(?) level public speaking competition tomorrow and I'm assigned for registry duty with Felicia. If I were to sit beside her and do my gestures, I think they'd be thinking that there's a sign language competition in conjunction with the public speaking. I don't know whether I'm on for timekeeper or not; I'll have to ask the teacher again tomorrow, rather, I'd have to write it in words.
No point turning up for school only to do one small thing and be bored the whole day through.

My story is still in progress, snail slow.

Right, now I'll go to Facebook and type out another note.

New Project?

To think, people have blogs that they update everyday, writing about every lil detail about their lives. My life is mundane; I don't need everyone to know how boring it is.

Ah, April. The month of spring?
We don't have four seasons here, so I don't know for sure.

CABAL, a game that I've discovered (Bro claims he did, but I was the one with the invite) and spent the past 2 or 3 weeks on grinding. Currently lvl 81 and is getting quite tired of it already.
Met a few new friends, whom surprisingly stays very nearby.
So to counter the time (and life) wasted away on that game, I'm currently attempting a lil something to balance out. I don't want the parental units (I love this word to describe parents, makes them sound like robots. Kudos to Amy Deckers!) to say that I've spent too much time on something not worthwhile.

It doesn't have a title yet, nor does it have a plot. Kinda making it as I go.
It's already 3 1/2 pages written in my small handwriting (oops, I think I misspelt that word in my Facebook note). Nothing is set to stone yet, and I won't go carve it and then abandon it later.
When I get to it halfway (and God knows when), I'll type it out. I hope the words don't fade out completely by then.

Dad said that he's going to get me a new phone! Wahooo~
Hold up, I'm not celebrating just yet; not till I have the phone in my hand and it's one that has the more modern functions. I don't want it to be like the lame one that I'm having rite now.

Speaking of which, this lame one has caused me enough troubles.
I tried checking my balance and it switched itself off! I switched it on again and it did the same thing!
I'm glad to get rid of it.

Ah, time to head to bed. Not!
I think I'll hang around mindlessly surfing the net until 12.

I Miss YOU!

Dear Grandma in Heaven,

Hmm...Valentine's day is finally come and gone.
Same old, same old. No dear one, no special person; nothing.

Well, nothing but pure frustration.
I don't want to revisit yesterday's anger, it was painful and disappointing.

This has nothing to do with the chocolate sales.
SHE stuck us with the 'Learn a Word a Week' again! I did not hesitate to voice out my displeasure when she asked me which week I'd be taking. Then, she gave us the 'pep-talk' about us being irresponsible and not keeping our word.
What about her?
She told us that we needn't do this again if we did it last year! A pot calling a kettle black!
Then, she said that the teachers complained about our class being like this and said that a teacher hinted a name of a student in the class.
Duh, she was talking about me. That teacher was most probably another-name-I'd-rather-not-mention.

How did it happen?
I was a member of the ICON group last year, the school's magazine, under the English department.
I was suppose to write about two events that I wasn't present at, The Teacher's Day and the National Day celebration held in school. Since I wasn't told of any deadline, I put it aside while I tried to tunnel out of my mountain of homework.
I missed school and the ICON meeting for a few days when you passed. When I got back to school, I was still emotionally and mentally unstable. I was in still in a state of daze that you died.
Then, out of nowhere, the teacher stopped me at the stairs and asked me about the articles.
Still in the state of blurness, I didn't answer her. My silence was misinterpreted.
She then asked me to leave the magazine and she will find someone else to do it.
I agreed, cause the teacher didn't even bother asking for the reason.
At least this year, I don't need to see her anymore, as she was promoted. I'll never need to see her again in 9 more months.

It's disappointing to find out that teacher no longer care about the welfare of the students anymore. They're adopting the 'If I cared, my salary is still the same' mentality. Whatever.

This year, I hold two posts; the library head and secretary of Blue house.
Both posts require me to stay up late just to finish work. I'm glad that I'm already used to sleeping late; if I didn't, it'll be panda eyes galore.
To top those, it's exam year for us all. SPM in 9 months.
Now, I have duties to carry out, tuition classes to attend, scrapbooks to finish, homework to complete, presentations to be done and the library to oversee.
Blue house duties will end after Sports Day; I'm glad that Sports Day is in March.
Multitasking is an ability that I very much lack.

Well, this blog will be outdated for quite a while.
I don't really have time to write anything, including my personal journal, anymore.

I really miss you, Grandma.
Didn't I tell you to wait for me to graduate and attend my graduation?
Didn't I tell you to wait for my first paycheck and buy you the dinner I promised long ago?
Didn't I ask you to try to get better, for my sake?
Didn't I tell you that I'd introduce you to my boyfriend, if I ever managed to get one?
I'm sure that he'll adore your cooking...
Alas, you didn't wait...

But, it's okay. I understand that you were suffering everyday, being sick.
I'm just mad that the doctors didn't manage to figure out what was wrong with you.
Uncle should have brought you to consult another doctor, instead of talking the talk but not walking the walk. What about the other useless one, the one who was so stingy?!?
Mom was disappointed with them, and she still is.

I hope you found Grandpa and is happy to see him again. I hope that you're comfortable in the place that you are now.
Come visit me in my dreams, 'kay? I really want to see you again.

I'm off to bed now.

Forever your loving grand-daughter,
YL.

BOREDDDD

Okay.
The Lunar New Year's over.
Technically, it isn't over until the 15th of the Lunar calendar. Whatever.
Now, the year is just gonna past by in the blink of an eye. Wait and see.

First, the monthly test is going to come; then, midyear.
After that, the second test. Then the trials.
The last one of them all...SPM!
After that, school life's gonna be over for all of us! Wheeeee!

I just don't have a particular thing to speak about. Just rambling.
I'm sooooooooo bored!
