Was really bored, and my blog posts are apparently "outdated", as Malvick would say. Damn him. Anyway, this is a nice song, it's in my playlist music box thing, so you can sing along to the lyrics here. So yeah. Enjoy. =) This is Viva La Vida, by Coldplay.
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sweep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People could not believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries Wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
(Ooooh Oooh Oooh)
Hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
BACK FROM SEC 2 CAMP!! FINALLY!! Sorry for posting at this time, but i slept just now, ate, did some crap and now, this. Oh ya by the way, i'm currently trying to log into studywiz while blogging but i can't. Somehow. Whatever. Lousy eportal.
1st day of camp. School, as usual. Didn't wear my house T-shirt, so i wore NCC PT Kit instead. Ate lunch, saw Sergeants Ren Yang and Kai En there. Then we went hiking at Pulau Ubin. Nothing there. We were waiting for teachers before we went back to main land. Apparently, the teachers were eating durian! Damn evil. Ate dinner. Did... I can't remember the night activity. Supper. Slept.
2nd day. Ate breakfast. Morning "un-vigorous" PT. Did a lot of push-ups in one shot. Not that i can't do, though. Went orienteering. Corporal benjamin cheong took my team (consisting of Me Christian Marvin and Li Jie. Yes. All NCC with one exception). Got 7 clues, 2nd or 3rd place. Parred with another team. Winner is Sergeant Kai En's team with 12 clues. After lunch went rock climbing and abseiling. Managed to do abseiling, with some.. embarrassing moments. Won't like to share. Yeah then ate dinner. Did night walk. Was quite fun. Hard to explain lah. And too lazy. Then supper and then slept.
3rd day (last day) Ate breakfast. No morning PT this time. Went Mt. Faber hiking. Nothing much. Went home. =)
Music. Lesson. Was. The. BOMB. Of course, not literally. Well, we were asked to learn some ballroom dances (Surprised? Yes, i had to DANCE a WALTZ), namely waltz. The teacher, Ms Tan, showed us a few dances on video. Han Wei, when introduced to "Jive" during the first slide, turned to Poh Ann (my friend who couldn't swim) and said, "Eh, Poh Ann! DIVE!" We moved on to Waltz first. Apparently, Walzen means to roll or glide. And during the video, there was no rolling. Lionel, Han Wei, and Jon Tan ZY were extremely creative on the moves though. They were horny and that's that. Moving on to the Jive, which was a "fast" and "BOUNCY" kind of dance. During the video, if you really looked at Heng Yi, you will see him staring at the video (probably because the woman's boobs were bouncing during the fast dance). Han Wei pointed it out and said, "Eh, Jive is REALLY BOUNCY". The whole class laughed for a full 5 minutes NON-STOP. Hahahaha. Then we learned some instruments, namely the Guiro. It's an instrument that uses a stick and you're supposed to RUB it on some wooden gourd thing. Heng Yi, once again, asked a stupid and horny question. "Do you have to rub it hard?" The teacher explained to him, which was really not funny at all. And then she finally understood. "Eh this is music lesson lah, not science lesson." Then we had to learn the rythm of the Latin musics, which was also called "syncopation". Han Wei, once again, started being stupid. "Cheek-oh-pek tion". In the end he had to guard the door, with Lionel. Then we had to dance the footing for waltz (whichever girl wants to dance with me please feel free to approach me. =) Ok, never mind) while they guard. We had to use newspaper for the "box" footing thingamajing. And, being ourselves, we danced and tore the newspapers. Leroy stepped on Lee Kuan Yew's face on his newspaper, and Marcus put Lee Kuan Yew's picture in between his legs like wanting to pee on him. Looking forward to the next music lesson =) I'm so happy!! XD
4th July 2008, Monday is youth day. So no need go school =) Pris was kind enough to invite me for movie on Sunday. Asked me for another person to invite for movie. Caius cannot come. Daniel cannot come. Kang joe say will consider, but never come in the end. Yeah, apparently ALL my friends are seriously busy. Was playing in playground at Tampines mall the Open Plaza. Crapping about. Surprisingly can't do pull up know! Must train arm muscle. Ahem, yes, so anyway, we (me, nick, jerome, christian, renyi, priscilla, leticia, abigail, abigail's classmate) were crapping about, because SOMEONE said movie was at 11.30am and SOMEONE asked us to be there at 11.00am. In the end, the movie was actually at 1.50pm. So long for what? Queue up ticket scared lose to other people. Ya we were crapping about since we had too much time, and suddenly, Shermaine chionged at us. She said she was visiting us. Asked her to come watch movie, she say no got other stuff. 5 minute later she run away. Lol. She was wearing a freakingly HUGE shirt, which turned out to be her brother's. And she wore that (along with slippers and she wore shorts which were nearly un-see-able under the shirt. Don't think sick) to the mall. I never saw anyone wear that to the mall. And i'm surprised that Shermaine, who is considerably vain, was not embarrassed at all. Oh yeah the movie was Get Smart by the way, which was damn funny and damn sick. Hahahaha. Ahem. Tuesday, my aunt/chinese tuition teacher came for tuition. She wanted to see my Home Ec book, which contained food recipes. Ask here ask there, took 30 minutes in total out of the actual 2 hours. POP. Was. The. BEST. Part B's managed to do foot drills better than Part A's. And they said our drills were like birdshit! But give them benefit of a doubt lah. They just learned. But they learning Henta-kaki at sec 1 leh! My platoon sec 2 then learn. Ya anyway, Part D's got those army dog tags thing. And as usual berets dropped on the floor after Besurai, but they no need do pumping. So good. Ya then Sergeant Ronald gathered the Part A's and B's. He looked damn exceited, so everyone looked damn excited also. You look at Ronald you will know he is those damn playful kind lah. Ya then we were given "orders" to tau pok the part D's, as "Marist tradition". We chionged at them and some of them ran away. But 2 Corporals closed the gate, their only "escape route". After 5 minutes we stopped, cause Ronald got injured. Lol. Changed and then spent 15 minutes watching seniors tau pok each other. Hahahahaha. Just now Justin got piano exam. Followed him to Central. Had to walk back home to the MRT there. See i'm, such a good friend =) Hahahaha. Then just now hang socks so difficult. the hanger kept breaking, so i had to improvise. Used carrebina (or however you spell it) to hook the the whole socks things and to another clip to hang on the pole. Oh ya, Sec 2 camp is on next tuesday to thursday so don't SMS me and/or Call me. Got abseiling and rock climbing, both of which i won't do, as usual. =)
Just wanted to say to all my friends: Happy NCC Day!! This morning had to stand there. Managed to tahan for damn long lah. At least Samuel Pang didn't stink cause someone put deodorant on him or something. And Arnold didn't really move. We officially called him alien. Nothing he does seems human enough. THE BEST PART IS THAT NOBODY FELL OUT AND NOBODY FORGOT THE NCC PLEDGE!! Although, Master Nicholas Koh screwed up a bit, he still did well, as did all of us. =) After parade we took picture. No ranks on our sleeves. TT_TT Why? Because some knn people never come for rehearsal yesterday. So Sir Teng only gave to those who came and we needed to "standardise". When we went back(which is like 2 periods or an hour and 10 minutes past) all the NPCC bully us say we no rank. We look pretty much like the Part A's(Sec ones), except taller. Supposed to wear the Parade Uniform whole day, but in the end me and Marvin changed back. No seniors noticed us. During art lesson, queuing up at the art room there, got this part a pass by. So i kuai-lan-ed him =). I wasn't wearing uniform so he was like, "Who was that guy sia?" Hahahaha. During rehearsel yesterday, my platoon mate gave a letter dated "april 18" to my sergeant for some reason. The other sergeant saw, took it, tore it and buried it under the sand. =) The guy DID come though. Then after rehearsel saw Bro. Anthony's dog, a golden retriever. Name's muffin. She(don't ask how i know it) bit a KFC plastic bag and chewed on it. Rolled over, took out the chilli sauce inside and ripped the plastic bag. She ripped apart the head part of the drawing away from the body, amazingly. She couldn't bite through or into the chilli sauce packet though, and the trainer/caretaker called her until she gave up. Then she went to wherever. Seriously damn cute, that dog. =) Oh ya. During recess Jaryl told me, because NPCC go early mah. So Malvick, being Malvick, say he no need endure the chinese teacher. Then one chinese teacher passed by and scolded him. =) Damn happy day for me. No wonder it's called NCC day. Because NPCC got screwed =)
