Damn. I don't know why, but I feel so angry with myself right now. ergh. This is pissing me off; not knowing what I'm angry about!!!

Disenchanted
by My Chemical Romance

Well I was there on the day
They sold the cause for the queen,
And when the lights all went out
We watched our lives on the screen.
I hate the ending myself,
But it started with an alright scene.

It was the roar of the crowd
That gave me heartache to sing.
It was a lie when they smiled
And said, "you won't feel a thing"
And as we ran from the cops
We laughed so hard, it would sting

Yeah yeah, oh

If I'm so wrong (so wrong, so wrong)
How can you listen all night long? (night long, night long)
Now will it matter after I'm gone?
Because you never learn a goddamned thing.

You're just a sad song with nothing to say
About a life long wait for a hospital stay
And if you think that I'm wrong,
This never meant nothing to you

I spent my high school career
Spit on and shoved to agree
So I could watch all my heroes
Sell a car on tv
Bring out the old guillotine
We'll show 'em what we all mean.

Yeah yeah, oh

If I'm so wrong (so wrong, so wrong)
How can you listen all night long? (night long, night long)
Now will it matter long after I'm gone?
Because you never learn a goddamned thing.

You're just a sad song with nothing to say
About a life long wait for a hospital stay
And if you think that I'm wrong,
This never meant nothing to ya

So go, go away, just go, run, run away.
But where did you run to? And where did you hide?
Go find another way, price you pay

Woah, Woah, Woah, Woah, Woah, Woah

You're just a sad song with nothing to say
About a life long wait for a hospital stay
And if you think that I'm wrong,
This never meant nothing to ya, come on

You're just a sad song with nothing to say
About a life long wait for a hospital stay
And if you think that I'm wrong,
This never meant nothing to you

At all, at all, at all, at all

Okay, I know I should be jealous right now, but I'm not because even though I saw her first and she got stolen by someone close to me and all, I know shouldn't be jealous or mad, and I am, because I'm not jeal-ing or angry!!!

Hmmmm. Kay. Got a stupid B3 for my Malay Os. Same like Qamarul apparently. xD Haha. 4D Tradition I guess. xP

And what's more frightening is that I've found out that all my sisters, too scored B3 for their Malay exams! o.o Whoa! It's like destiny or something.... But if it's destiny, I'm in a position to be nervous because all my sisters, and my parents, all went to Poly after the Os. And if destiny makes me choose the Poly path, that will be quite bad... =(

In words of someone, Be afraid, be very afraid... *glomps*

Le sigh...

And what a high expectation the school has set for us because of this year's 'Best results in the history of VS' standards. >.<

Anyways, today was the celebratory part of the O-Level results release. The whole school was released at 9am. And with the announcements and all being dragged till 8, there was only one hour of lesson left. ^^

A.Maths. T_T With E.T. =.=" Haha. But we just call her Mrs. Puff, from SBSP, because doesn't she look like her? Haha. xD But some call her Raichu too, I don't know why. xD

Anyways, had our Differentiation test, which the 4H people said was f-ing easy, but it's so NOT! With questions 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e and 2 as warm-ups, question 3 and 4 are the killers with the most marks. WTH? There's Factor Theorem selit in the middle of the test!! >.<

Damn it. Anyways, met up with Hasif at the canteen after dismissal. Then waited for Farhan. After 10 minutes or so, we found him and he wanted to watch the auditions for Talent Quest. =/ Haha. I seriously can't imagine Bobo singing 'Won't Go Home Without You' by Maroon 5. xD

Anyways, the auditions haven't started yet, so we left for Parkway and left Nawawi an SMS to meet us there. Big mistake. It was only 9.30 and we all forgot that the mall opens at 10. =.=" Haha. Went to the 24hr McDonalds to find the area swamped with Victorians! o.o We just sat in there and slacked till 10. Farhan ate a Big Breakfast.

10 o'clock, went over to KFC. Then Nawawi came with Joshua, Fungus and Jervin, and we (Josh, Hasif, Farhan and me) ordered that Golden Family Feast thingy, which is so not worth it. 2pc chicken per person, one shrimp per person, one coke per person, a shared whipped potato and shared coleslaw, shared 6pc nuggets, shared popcorn chicken for $7.30!! o.o

OMG! That's so ex!!! *shiftyeyes* Oh ya. And Farhan DID eat again. xD

After which the 4B people went to play pool, which the four of us surveyed Parkway Parade. Checked out various stalls there; too many to remember. But for two hours. xD Met various ppl there. xD Too many to remember. Haha.

And I'm aiming to buy that chic Samsung G800!! It's seriously uber. With an uber price of $700!

Oh ya. And Hasif phone, Sony Ericsson w900i, dropped in price by $200. xD Haha. We were suanning Nawawi to get the Nokia 6110 Navigator phone, because he's always lost and his phone is currently being sold at the second hand store. xD Anyways, went to Borders too. But when we went to the Literature section, Nawawi got all confuzzled with all the chim-iologies. xD And he said so himself. xP

Then bought a cute ball from Royal Sporting House for $11 after a 50% discount. =/ Cool. We left the place at 12.30pm for the mosque.

Reached school, placed our bags in the PSB room then off to the mosque.

Pointy pointy! xD

Lols. After prayers, went to play soccer with that mini-ball till 4-ish. Then slacked/study/play till almost 6. Then went home.

Ooh! And both Nawawi and Hasif that the Scannia K230UB looks f-ing cool. And I so agree!

See. Isn't it cooler that it's now on Service 60?! =D Haha.

OMG! I fell in love with the moon tonight.
It's so uber prettiful, the view outside my window. (: Lub it.

And yay! I finally managed to joyride on the Double Deck Svc 5 just now!!! =D

Whee! I'm so happy because of that. xD

Anyways, I'm here to blog about yesterday's MRT incident.

Source A
SMRT Website Press Release

MRT TRAIN SERVICE DISRUPTION

1. On 21 January 2008, there were no westbound and eastbound train services
between Pasir Ris and Tanah Merah MRT stations from the start of train service
at 5.28am till 12.45pm. The disruption was caused by the breakdown of a
maintenance works train which was carrying out works between Tampines and
Simei (westbound) MRT stations. There were some damages to the maintenance
works train and we are investigating the cause.

2. During the delay period, eastbound trains were turned around at Tanah Merah
MRT Station. Bus bridging services were activated to ferry passengers between
Pasir Ris and Tanah Merah MRT stations. The first bus arrived at Pasir Ris MRT
Station at 5.38am, and the first bus arrived at Tanah Merah MRT Station at
5.48am. In total, 40 SMRT buses and 30 SBST buses were deployed during the
disruption to ferry passengers between Pasir Ris, Tampines, Simei and Tanah
Merah MRT stations.

3. In addition, from 8.28am, westbound shuttle trains serving Tampines, Simei and
Tanah Merah MRT stations were operated at a 28-minute interval to ease
passenger flow at Tampines and Simei MRT stations.

4. Passengers were informed of the service disruption and the free bus bridging
services through train and station announcements, notices and rail travel
information system in the stations as well as broadcast channels.

5. Both westbound and eastbound train services between Pasir Ris and Tanah
Merah MRT stations resumed at 12.45pm. About 57,000 passengers traveling
between Pasir Ris and Tanah Merah MRT stations were affected.

6. Passengers who were unable to complete their journeys due to the disruption can
claim a full fare refund from the Passenger Service Centre in any of the 51 SMRT
stations, within the next three working days (from today till 24 January 2008).

7. SMRT apologises for the inconvenience caused.

The Accident

^The rail grinder collided into a flatbed trailer which is parked on the tracks.

Personal Responce of ZYX

heres a summary of incidents on jan 21 In my opinion and really in my opinion and boy am i not happy opinions

OWN OPINIONS
once upon a night, when smrt are running maintenace trains on their MRT line fixing crooked rails and welding them straight, tightening loose rivets and welding tracks thhat have a huge gap after the days xpansion and retraction, a signalling fault occurs.

Then a bed pan train used to take up replaced track material rolls into the path of the mainenace train. maintenace trains rolls on then...at 340am BANG. the collisions between he two maintenace locommotives woke residents up in Simei. (news)

at 538am SMRT finds that it cannot run train service between Tanah merah and Pasir ris stations due to the two broken things left on track. o it calls up 40 of its spare fleet and rings up SBS to ask for help.
END OF OPINIONS and ASUMPTIONS

by then the press had gotten news of the incident and they sent a staement out saying that it is some mechanical ault n we are investigating.

by 7am crowds throng the stations in the east like the scenes of the Paris train strikes - where they stopped train services whilst on strike. SMRT offered no help in chiense language. many were left wondering what happened. the buses sent were not enough to meet crowd demands

after this incident i have formed the opinion that smrt are covering their ***ses and not owning up to a seriuos industrail type incident and are trying to avoid the maximum 1 million fine to be impsoed. i am indeed in poor opinion of SMRT now. Also on the other hand the media could be at fault for repoting that the incident was a mechanical fault and not a clear industrial accident. and in the way they saboh SMRT. both english n chiense dailies reported unknown causes.

For now i guess we could either beleive the media or stete the opinion that its an accident like i did

Misc. Comments

Westbound shuttle trains were also put into place at a 28—minute interval to ease passenger flow at Tampines and Simei MRT stations.

The trains changed platform that morning (Westbound train changing into the middle and/or Eastbound platforms momentarily)

It thinks it's quite dumb la. Suicide cases end much faster. And the only reason why it took 6 to 7 hours is that the train keeps on getting stuck here and there at Tampines area. They could have towed from the front, but the front part is dangling loose.

According to CNA, "Residents living next to the MRT tracks where the disruption occurred (Simei residents), told Channel NewsAsia that they heard a loud sound on the tracks before dawn. SMRT said there were some damages to the maintenance works train."

And this is a rare, once in a blue moon occasion when SBST helps out SMRT in a troublesome situation. =/

Lol. Maintanence train now needs maintanence. And don't the train looks as if Superman triedto stop it on its tracks? xD

Nawawi: Hasif, you should really learn Biology.
Hasif: You should really learn English.
Me: Please, he does Maths during English. And yet he still gets 8/100.

After a long hiatus, I'm back to blogging. I think. Expecting more blog hiatuses in the near future. Too darn busy.

But maybe I'm lazy too. xD Oh wells. But the thought of blogging still lives though. Just that time may not, and in fact, did not, allow me to blog. Ideas there, but guess I could blog it out. =( Oh wells. Been like that since Monday. =P

Guess the prominent things that occurred this year, other than the third time going for Sec 1 Camp, is simply what happened today. Not the idiotic fire drill where the fire is burning at the band room, but simply Hasif's imba triple cross across the balcony. xD

What happened that he accidentally hit a high ball over the edge of the Parade Square, and it somehow happens to land onto the corridor railings outside of 3J, bounce and hit the railing outside 3I, and somehow lands itself on the corridor itself. Heart was pouncing all the way. Yet I'm so thankful that it didn't drop.

Haha. First was the smashing of one of the hostel windows, then that. All happened today. xD Haha.

Can't remember much of the past few days. Just that I reliased that I cannot live without my daily dosage of proper 8 hours of sleep. If not, I'll go giddy all day and feel like fainting. And with AEP after school time and time again, I can't handle the situation.

Speaking of AEP, remind me to do more research. =/ The VAT is really effed-up but I guess I need to do it well so as to use it as my Humanities subject...

Oh ya! I remembered something. The weather has been so freaky these days. And I actually saw the lightning striking those metal bars at the hostel there on Monday. Freaky. And that immense storm on Tuesday afternoon, not only made me lose all concentration on the stupid Higher Malay mock exam, but also struck the cable ski poles/wires. Now it's malfunctioning, hence certain classes has their trips cancelled. All I can say is that, I'm glad mine is next term. =D

Back to homework. Still haven't mugged yet since the year started. Oh wells. =( Hope I can get started soon.

Oh yes! Help me out with this guys. I'm doing a survey to find out whether Victorians prefer ESP or NSP and which one's they'll go for?. Currently, the ratio of ESP to NSP is 5:3.

HELP ME PROMOTE! ESPECIALLY YOU DANIAL!!!!!!!!! =DDDD

Oh ya! And try to avoid Farhan #10. He has a tendancy to suddenly pull your dick even without him noticing. xP

// Avatar Book 3 Chapter 13 : The Firebending Masters //

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hmph. New episode of avatar has aired in Canada last Friday. Next one, hopefully will come out on the 11th Jan. Hopefully.

Anyways, received the Art Papers already. Still stressed out about them but I'll get I'll procrastinate this stressfulness till the weekends. =/

And the teachers were mood swinging today. ET, Leow, Setho...all PMS all over us like crazy. >.< Haiz... seriously, why do we get the old aunties of teachers for most of the subjects?

Sianz...

Better start cracking on those homework and revision. Even though some were completed in the midst of the boring, slash, PMS-ful lessons today...

I'll guess I'll end of with this cool AMV I stumbled upon recently.

Whoa! That was a nice and refreshing 21 hours of sleep I had from 5pm to 2pm just now!

Why so tired? Duh, school has started. And of course, because me and Alph selit during the Sec 1 Camp.

Took cab there after buying tons of coffee from Parkway Parade. Dont bother asking whats the cab fare. Lets just say that it was slightly more expensive than what the Leaders have to pay for the camp... xP The driver was kind enough to send us there even though he had to go to Tampines afterwards. xD Lols.

But it was fun indeed. Everyone there was stunned to see us and was like, "How do you get here?" and stuff... And the campfire was uber. Haha. The Sec 1s are generally hyped up thanks to the leaders.

Dunno whether it is a good thing or not, because on the positive end, the Sec 1s had fun, but on the negative side, the SLs showed too much of thier fun side to the '09 batch of Veloci-T. Hmmm... maybe I'm thinking too much, but oh wells. Veloci-T this year from 3rd Nov to 14th Nov. That freaking hell 11 days!!!

Sick ah!

Lols. Bridge club. Didn't sleep at all till 4.50am that night. Then woke up at 6am. ^^ So fun, playing and teaching bridge to them...

Oh, and I finally recieved teachings of the cube from Mr. Ice Cube! =D Yay!

< random>
You cross breed a guy from Iceland and another from Cuba, and you get an Ice Cube...
< /random>

Lols. Reggie and Fadhil were super hilarious that night after the campfire. It was like we were watching live Television... xD Haha...

Anyways, what's done is done. Time to finish my homework...

But before that, let's cherish the moment of my big words in bold from the previous post!

Yay! I'm still hyped up over it. And I can't wait to joyride on it!! =D

And I'm so not gonna eat Fish & Co. again for another 10 months. Especially since our ATM pang-seied us after the meal... >.<

AAAHH!! SVC 5 FINALLY HAS DOUBLE DECK BUSES!!! 8D

First day of school... damn jialat. =/ Every single teacher who came into our class keeps on crapping the same thing that sec 4 is a very important year and that time will whizz past quickyly and before you know it, you're already in the examination hall...

Yar...

And Setho is as worse as Leow. And I have a feeling that Esther Teo will be the same too. >.< Haiz... 4 subjects need to self study. Damn jialat...

Sianz... First AND second, or make that second AND third, O-Level paper will be given next Monday. =/ Art papers. Sianz. The framework given for us to finish the papers even more jialat. So many things to do, so little time. And that's only for AEP, there's still other subjects, especially the one needed for self-study, and not to forget, SLC and SLI...

AEP Coursework. Dunno what to do. =/ Recommended to do painting, but hell with it, I'm not that good in painting. The only reason that my painting was good in Sec 2 is that Joel guided me through. Haiz... Maybe I'll just do some Animation Video or something. I'll prefer to do things on the computer though. xD But even animation itself is jialat. What more an animation video... >.<

And I don't know whether to choose Drawing & Painting paper or Study Of Visual Arts paper for O-Levels. Both has their advantages and disadvantages, and I'm recommended to take Painting, again I'm hesitant because of the reason above. Then again, the SOVA is uber difficult to begin with, especially since I lack Sec 1 and Sec 2 AEP experience... >.<

Haiz...

Sec 1 Camp tmr. Have fun to those going. The reds and blacks always have fun at Sec 1 Camp! =D I'll may be ~~selit-ing~~ joining you all for Campfire Night on Friday. ^^

And for those of you who don't know, selit means being extra.

First post of the year. Hahax. =P

Happy New Years Day

Still appalled at the new timetable. =/ What it can't be helped really. Guess it just means more self-study required. Haiz...

2007 Top 100 at 987fm a few hours ago. I guess the only song that can remind me of 2007 is Umbrella by Rihanna. =P Haha. Around 10 weeks topping the charts if I'm not mistaken. Could be more, could be less, but I know it is for a long time, and many love its tune. That's something to cherish about the year.

Stalxercise. One new pastime I had made on 2007. Certainly enjoyed it, especially since it can be incorporated with joyriding. Lols. ^.^

Looking back, I guess 2007 has been a blast. Despite its stressful-ness, I enjoyed the ride through. Raped during Sea Comp, had fun during PSLTC + OBS, $500 for my wonderful achievements for my studies... and the list goes on. I enjoyed it. And I'll stay at that.

I know I'm kinda an hour late to make my new years resolution. Lols. Too busy watching X-men Trilogy at Star Movies. xD But seriously, I don't really have much resolutions to hope for for 2008. Any, for that matter. I'll just enjoy the ride through the next 266 days just like what I have done for the past few years. Yup, 266 because it's a leap year.

But I guess this one resolution takes priority over anything else. I thing I hope for...

Let us not part too far after Graduation. (:

By us, I mean the friends I had made in school for the past 3 years. That's the sad truth of friendship. Parting after 4 grand years in a fine institution... Even if you go to same schools, it still means parting with others, because it's not possible for everyone to go to the same school again. It's not academically possible. That's what I hate about being smarter than certain people. It's a guaranteed sign that you will part after graduation. =( Haiz... Thinking about it makes me feel unwilling to go through 2008. =/

Anyways, that's my lone resolution of the year. ^^ Other than that, I'll just enjoy the ride despite its ups and downs.
