meh I've broken my promise of having a full post by yesterday. Anyway..............
Hmmm what happened over the week? Oh, YOG ended on the 26th. It's actually kinda sad that it's over after all the hype. I wanted to volunteer at first but decided not to, thinking that it'll affect my studies. Apparently not because whatever school stuff we went through during the YOG period wasn't that heavy. At least I contributed by being part of the YOG Friendship Camp in December last year for 2 days. Saw quite a few athletes while I was out. Seriously, the place to find them is in MRT trains. Saw the Japanese ones and that redhead Canadian fencer who came out in the news a few days before. Saw a few of the Swedish athletes at Orchard, ironically clad in Li-Ning sports apparel. I don't understand why some complain that the whole event was mismanaged. All seemed to be well, albeit the budget being exceeded 4 times more. Moreover, it's the very first YOG, so of course its awareness would be fairly low around other parts of the world. I'm looking forward to what Nanjing has up its sleeves though in 2014. After Beijing 2008, I have a feeling we'll definitely pale in comparison.
Other than that I've been draining my savings on breaking fast outside with my friends. Speaking of fasting, it's been 19 days already. That's pretty damn quick actually. I've been spending a lot of time in school lately, so that could be a reason why time flew pretty fast. For some reason I keep missing breakfast on Sundays since Ramadan started. Imagine the 'torture' of having to endure stomach-growling hours from dinner on the previous Saturday till 7.15 pm on Sunday. That's 24 hours! That makes WorldVision's annual Famine event like a piece of cake. And they get to drink sugared water!
How about my studies? Yes, I've been neglecting them. 2 weeks away (WHAT??) from Prelim 2 and the only proper effort I made was studying at Changi Airport overnight from 10pm on Saturday till 6am today. Baaahhhh I'm screwed.

"how do we go about doing this" This phrase, a choice question by many teachers irritates me A LOT. Just "how to do" is enough for us to understand.
Started this week with National Day. I thought I would be ushering for the NDP at first, but it ended up to be an NTUC side-event instead at the Marina Bay Waterfront Promenade. My group of ushers were lucky though because our duty wasn't the usual. We had to unveil a giant Singapore flag from the NTUC tower as the helicopters carrying the other flag passed by. And that's another advantage. We got to see them and the F16s before those at the actual parade. Holding the flag down was tough though, given that the ropes which secured it flat to the building were less than a centimetre thick. Walked around the event area with Aliff and we got to see the fireworks up close. After the whole event we had to bring the flag back into the office and fold THE WHOLE THING! The very factor that did not justify our $40 'allowance', as they called it. At least during the process we managed to peep at a Caucasian couple who was dancing and kissing around in their apartment in The Sail, just opposite the NTUC tower:) It was a great National Day indeed.
15 more minutes till I can eat again. Fasting today wasn't really worth it since I slept from 6am to 5pm -_-

too lazy to do my weekly post today, so here's a collection of randomness. And Google, I hate your new posting interface! Oh, that's not Britney from the early 2000s, it's taken yesterday:)

Just got back from a barbecue for the MLL students at Bukit Batok. I felt like a tourist on the way there because I've never walked more than 100m in that area before. Thanks to my 'super' directional skills I didn't get lost. The bbq was alright. Served the others like a waiter for the first 2 hours and fanned the charcoal till I have a blister on my left hand. The perfect match for the lonely corn on my right hand....... On the other hand (pun intended!), my ranking points for prelims totaled up to 42 and that means I've 'graduated' from STAR! Wouldn't make a difference though as I'm considering to stay back in school to study, given that it's 1 month away from Prelim 2.
I swear Boon Lay is turning into Little India 2. That new park near the central area is full of them, sitting anywhere as they like. Much like Singapore's turning into one huge Chinatown. Ok that sounds a bit weird as Singapore is 70% Chinese but I'm sure the Singaporean ones see themselves as a separate entity from China. What do you think of the expanding foreign population here? In my opinion, at any one time 20% of the passengers in an MRT train are foreigners. Sometimes I feel that I'm not in my country, don't you feel likewise?
Moving on, it'll be one hell of a week. In a good way I suppose? National Day on 9 August, Ramadan starts 2 days after and YOG on the 14th. The suffering will begin. No, I'm not talking about fasting, it's the 8 cups of water I'll be forcing myself to drink in the morning and having to endure a full bladder on the way to school......

The Birds and the Beedrills (a song integrating the 151 pokemon as sexual innuendos)
So I got this girl in the sex nid-arena Getting ready to put my Poke-flue in between her. First I take it slow bro, you know, play it Tentacool When I Poliwag my Weedle oh how it makes her drool I’m hard as a rock, and this girl seems hooked on onix Cause she puts her Meowth on my Pidgey and takes it like a bong hit Then she’s starting to Machoke, which isn’t very cool I don’t want to risk the Chance, see, of being Tentacruel With the greatest swiftness, I slide off her Kabutop And make her great paras come unleashed and drop She’s seaking to be drilled, while I’m hoping she’s infertile Playing with those jigglypuffs, trying veno-not to Squirtle I Exegcute that foreplay, and now I’m ready to Cubone Trying to finish quickly before her Mr. Mime gets home But she stops before I can start the Manky Panky And Says “Since I had to Staryu, you have to Starmie” So since she did me, I guess I have to Ditto I get down on my knees and pone-eat a Pidgetto Give her a Slowpoke before I dive into that girl And attack her cloyster with a full polywhirl I Lickitung her Lapras, tasting on that Magicarp-et Hoping she’s not Krabby, that’d be gastly and would make my heart sick Yes that Persian rug was clef-hairy, but I didn’t really mind Since I could ring the Victory bell, I was getting some behind Down there for so long, I came up Koffing and Wheezing I got her seel of approval though, cause she’s Growlith-ing and breathing Wanting to gravel her, feeling so sand-shrewd Give her an electabuzz with my spear-oh too I’d tell you her name, but don’t think she’s a whore, see? Not to many get her rapidash, tonight she’s just rhyhorn-y, So I start Rhydon like the Machamp, feel like I could roar Going so hard that I probably made her ivy sore She wanted my Arbok so I gave her gear a dose Going so hard that her Mew almost tauros Inside that butterfree, feeling like a charmelon bucks Constantly Jolteon her from the power of my Psyduck Now I must have gone and jinxed it, somewhere in the equation Cause she started getting drowzee during the copulation I didn’t even notice, I kept going at her Golbat But then something seemed Oddish when I she started to snorelax I tried to wake her up, zu-but she was pory-gone And she’d have to be awake before I’d get my flare on. Of course I felt gloom, I thought I had been charming’ her And now I can’t Grime her voltorb or I’ll be harming her My Dewgong can’t Muk, and if he does it’d be rude But this is still better then the time I brought home a Geodude With my pants down and my bell sprouted, I feel I got to doduo So I Maro-walked into the bathroom, and when I leave, what do I view? That my girl’s awake again-gar, which seems kind of farfetched And provoked some Poliwrath at the thought that she fake-slept I asked her what was wrong, does she not like it when I pinsir? And she responded with, “Calm down a second, Spencer. If you think your sex is good, your wrong, if you think your hip, no, The only thing you’re good at is Nintendo.” I love this girl a magneton, and hearing that was wiggly tough. The eevee-ning had started well, but now was turning rough Told her “Wait a parasect, please stay the omanyte, You’re my goldeen girl, and if you leave I magne-might E-raticate my life, cause you are my pharaoh! It’s to early in the night to give me the kabuto!” And she says, “Way back when, when I first took a peek at you. I thought you were kind of cute and that you’d want my mew too. I felt electrodes in the air when I saw you and you saw me But that was before I knew your Diglett was so Dragtini!” I didn’t know the size of my Dodrio mattered, and my god, Here I thought we were like two Caterpies in a Metapod I hope the memories of me haunt her, I hope she never leaves her shellder “I hope you see dra light soon,” I go and I tell her. “I know you think your hot shit, but I’m actually exegg-cuter. I’m the omastar, the Kingler, I can find another suitor. I’m sorry about the time I gave you Wartortles and blisters Or when I suggested a dugtrio with your sister. But if you still want go, I won’t beg like our canine. Golduck with your life, I’m having a Blastoise with mine.” And that night, Misty left me, I felt so vileplume I reckons that dragon night was the beginning of the doom But I guess men are from Magmars women from Venusaur And every thing tangelable, there’s a reason for I learned this the next week, when bad news filled the dragonair My heart got machopped in half like a scyther giving it a tear A phone call from her mother told me a kakuna in her head Had attached to her vulpix, and now Misty was dead. I thought it was a cle-fable that those things were hitmon-lethal I had heard eight or ninetales about gol-them from different people But I still couldn’t believe it, I started weepin, belting out tears Cuts and slashes vaporeonizing all of our years It was like Riach-uno, Zap-dos, Mol-tres, and she’s gone And I can’t abra kadabra with some magic wand No alacazam and she reappears, I feel like a primeape They could have caught the growth but the Kangascans came back to late I pidgey-ought to have known better, but the news was quite charz-hard My heart felt bulba-sore, was permanently scarred She was my Nidoqueen, I should not have nido-ran I wanted to be her Nidoking, but I felt more like a hitman-chan If I hadn’t nidoran, would she still be with us? Or is my poke-love just to damn venomoth? Insides numb like the artic, you know that feeling A gun ratatta-ed my heart and I’m just waiting for the healing But I don’t regret getting hit with cupid’s arrow-dact-all Relationships are like pokemon, you gotta catch em’ all.
Nidarino.
Probably the best song ever lyrically, but this guy definitely had too much time in his hands!

GAAAH. So much homework and a huge MLL test coming. Deep inside, something's not right. I have a feeling that something will go wrong this week. I should religiously follow my instincts, given that they've been 96.465% right.
Studied with Arif, Din and Suraya yesterday. Well Arif, you shocked me with your drastic change in appearance. Well we discussed loads of Econs. Did a lot of teaching, I must say. I think Mrs Koh would definitely be proud of us if she spied on us.
Oh, try to grab a table at Woodlands Library in the morning if you plan to study there on weekends. $6.10 an hour for a discussion room is a rip-off!
And finally, my 6 t-shirts and wallet are finally here. I'm not crazy. I'm just doing the US a favour. Dear Mr Obama, I've relieved your trade deficit on a nano scale. Now where's my free gift??
