MUAHAHAHAHA !!!

TWENTY THREE DEMERIT POINTS VANISHED INTO THIN AIR WITHOUT EVEN A SINGLE HOUR OF DETENTION!!!! WOOHOO!!


eeshhh.... feel so humchi... dun ask why.

looks like my air cannon and remake launcher is gone... 2 inches of notes to study in 2 weeks... bleagh.

in a weird mood... somehow feel like making a iron bodkin arrow, but that's close to impossible without a furnace and a source of good iron(i wonder what is not made of steel nowadays). currently considering electrolysis. met with a lot of disagreements. but then somehow i think it might work... even though i get the feeling that if I do it it wunt. haven't contributed to the KKK yet. though i really dun mind scraping sticks :) smooth long and hard... so nice to the touch.

my judo is screwed lah... i think some of my fire extinguished due to 2 weeks of no training. but then my fire had never been strong in the first place... and now it is even weaker...

i wonder how jimr gets the time to finish all his homework and train and still do fun stuff like pyro. *remembers a saying that ppl who dun sleep dun grow tall* ahh well. my grandma said tt i wun grow taller than my father. i shall prove her wrong. 1 cm away. and if i dun sleep enuff i cannot concentrate in class(which is my secret of passing without studying true lah, its not a secret i mean, for an extra hour of sleep i save a lot of time and trouble later), and when i read i just forget the previous sentence after reading one.

my study tips.

sleep and breakfast. DO NOT EVER DO WITHOUT THEM!!!

fibre: saves you a lot of time for sleep. and possibly demerit points.

travel time. only study if you are not tired, or it is the day of test. otherwise sleep.

classes. always ALWAYS pay attention. i mean it. teachers will usually tip you off on the exam questions. and usually the things the dun teach wun come out for exams, and helps to understand better. it helps a damn lot and basically if u dun then all your sleep is wasted.

recommended reading. ask teacher(no, excluding language teachers) to recommend. helps also and gets u a pretty good testimonial if u pay attention and hand in your homework and DO NOT DISRUPT THE CLASS. but then actually whether u read it or not is optional(go ahead, read campbell reece).

DO NOT COPY. seriously. so what if u screw up your assignments. learn from it. what matters are not assignments, but exams and tests. yes EXAMS. we are really just preparing for A levels. so dun copy.


basically these are tips to get away with not studying. works for me, but not sure if it works for others.

feel free to comment. anyway my GPA is rather sucky though... 3.2 ... but considering the fact that i didn't study, i feel it is pretty good.

"Methyl salicylate, as found notably in oil of wintergreen, has additional external uses as a local rubefacient and is very well absorbed through the skin: it is thus a useful application for an inflamed joint -reducing the inflammatory process while at the same time PAINLESSLY increasing the blood flow itself."

on a side note. Methyl Salicylate is the active ingredient(12.7%) in deep heat.

thought of the day:
Prelude to "little red riding hood"
"Hubby Hubby, why do you have such huge ____?"
"All the better to ____ you my dear."

founders day rocket launcher was a success...though things didn't really turn out as sweet as expected, but that's part of life we'll have to accept. for example, my launcher (the one on the right) didn't fire as far as i expected it to. i suspect there is a minor leak. and i still haven't repaired it. darn. but it still is a lethal weapon at point blank range....so hell yeah.

i am thinking of building another launcher from scratch in the june hols. yiyuan said he's gonna build a launcher thats gonna make me jealous. snit him. he has no prior experience. i on the other hand have already built a launcher that have already made him jealous enough to want to build one too. and i tell u without considering the materials, i can build one in half a day and use it the third day. yiyuan stands no chance.(and if i had to make one to make yiyuan jealous i should consult jimr and ggy and WANG...and hopefully i can fulfil the tasks)

currently considering attaching an extra pressure gauge, emergency air release mechanism, and to make it detachable as well. also considering to make a double cushion so that it can be hand fired. need suggestions from huang, jimr, yiyuan, and of course, ggy.

now on other stuff.

got a corny dream last nite. dreamt that i hacked into mitch's blog and kept the password. later when i felt pissed i deleted his blog. then he was damn pissed when he found out it was me and he got the whole RIPB to come down on me. scary dream.

another corny dream that i went past a temporary stall selling boxes of atachi at 3 boxes for $2!!! then when i searched my wallet i found $50 orchid series notes...$10 bird series notes... and had 50cent old coin and $1.90 worth of new coins. and i had no friends nearby!! so i had to forgo the cheap atachi... :`(

moral of the story: never underestimate the power of friends.

on to training.

wasn't much of a training really. mainly moved new mats to the dojo, and thus provided extra land for territorial expansion towards the ping-pong territory *sniggers*, but that implied a high upkeep, and new lands may not be fertile. oh what am i talking about?

the new mats+ o'le mats created a dojo 4/3 the size of the previous one. and the new mats are HARD and STICKY. oboy we sure are gonna enjoy this for trng camp(remember guys, 4 rounds of front crawls? per training? plus punishment front crawls? and nagekomi... woohoo.)

but always look on the bright side of life! that means more soccer space!

As with other swearwords and taboo words, or intensifiers, fuck is often not used in its original, literal meaning. Rather, it is an intensifier expressing nothing but the speaker's strong emotional involvement (often negatively, but not necessarily: e.g. "fucking good" is a rude way of saying "very good"). In the book Practical English Usage, the two meanings of the word are clearly illustrated by juxtaposing the sentences:

What are you doing fucking in my bed?
What are you fucking doing in my bed?
What the fuck are you doing in my bed?

The first sentence means "Why are you copulating in my bed?", while the second and third merely emphasizes the sentence "What are you doing in my bed?". The second usage is more common than the first, and the third is even more common then the second.

"Fuck you!" expresses anger, and thus seems to be more related to "I am so angry at you, I am going to rape you to punish you" than to "I would like to lovingly have sexual intercourse with you". It also may be related to "fuck off," which seems to be a reference to masturbation, where it might originally have been a vulgar way of saying "quit bugging me and go back to masturbating or whatever stupid stuff you usually do." It may also express indifference with respect to the well-being of another person or of other people in general, for example reacting to a request, or the imposing of rules.

Another use of the word fuck is as a replacement for the word God in profane statements. For example "Fuck knows" means something like "I don't know, and neither is anyone ever likely to know".


Linguistics

Verb

The word can be used as a verb transitively:
He fucked her.

Or intransitively:

They fucked all night.

Noun

As a noun:

He is a real fuck.
What the fuck?!

Interjection

The interjection fuck is frequently used to express shock, discontent and anger in general.

Fuck! A punctured tire!

Present participle

The present participle fucking (or fuckin' ) is commonly used to intensify a verb or noun. As described earlier, it is used more negatively than positively.

My fucking boss gave me tons of fucking work to do.
She is fucking beautiful.

In addition, the present participle is sometimes inserted in the middle of a word as an intensifier, a process known as expletive infixation. For example:

That was abso-fuckin-lutely cool!
Ex-fuckin-cuse me!
In-fuckin-credible

Portmanteau

Prepended to another word, the sound "f" is sometimes used to evoke the entire expletive, with an intensifying sense. (See portmanteau.)

That's fugly (fucking ugly).

whee. i made a launcher. all by myself. from my own pocket. and it works! Muahahahaha! it's mine!!! not the school's...yes it's mine!!! now i can launcher my own bottle rockets all by myself! without other's permission!

oh yar... have to mention the "learning journey" to bugis. at first i just wanted to go to a hardware shop "a short walk" from our school to buy an O-ring[something supposedly very common](first you either turn left or turn right, then you walk straight for 15 minutes). didnt intend to go to bugis, but since jimr was so enthusiastic about it, and also i forgot how to go to the hardware shop, and also jimr assured me that the place would sell O-rings("i will bang their heads if they don't"), and also he mentioned exciting stuff(forgot, but certainly sounds very exciting), so i went.

truly it was a place full of fun junk and boy, it had things like tinderbox, sledgehammer, 3 feet long cutters(i wonder what it cannot cut), coffins, a protection mask for acetyl-oxy-welding and *piles*. all sorts of shit(saw methanol too, poisonous, volatile and burns cleanly, very tempted to buy until jimr told me that some chemicals require IC)

jimr bought a can of higly compressed butane, and when released froze anything. produced frost on the nozzle when pressed for some 3 seconds.(good follow-up to deep-heat and chilli. chilli his nipples then freeze it off. or deep heat someone's balls then freeze his **** off)

basically, the bugis place had everything. everything but O-rings. wow.

so we went back to bishan and he followed me to a hardware in god-knows-where. that place wasn't impressive. was about less than 10% of the size of the shop he showed me. but it sold O-rings. (jimr was like saying "du-lan" all the way back to school)

ali is a cruel person. he superglues and araldites ants. one ant would never have its body leave a tree leaf.

oh yes. rockets are fun. do not underestimate a 1.5 foot launcher or a 1 foot rocket. founders day you all shall see.

exeunt.

alwyn told me that there was training on saturday.

i wondered.

then i asked garry. he said there was.

so i came on saturday, and saw only sec 4s.

Mr tan asked me why i came.

shock.

then sec ones came too.

mr tan advised them to go home because his training plan was for the older boys and (direct quote)"YOU WILL DIEEE!"

in greater shock, and apprehension, considering that our training plan is already 'quite' tiring.

training started at 10, but came at 9.

after stoning for half an hour tan told us to do uchikomi while waiting for the jcs, and to warm up.

30 minutes just to do uchikomi. translates to 30 minutes to correct my entry.

then watched video for 40 minutes. warm-up effect from the uchikomi gone.

training was somehow felt more slack than usual. felt like i did half the amt of uchikomi than usual. (no, I didn't slack)

maybe thats because my seoi nage uchikomi is done on darius instead of jingwen. oh boy, darius... if i did uchimata uchikomi my arms would break. (it is good to train wif challenging ppl like lincoln and jingwen...good in the long run)

didn't feel any more tired than usual. i believe that the jcs feel that way too.

gained some things. shall not blame alwyn. partly(or mostly ^-^ )because i met someone whom i longed to meet.
