MY FIRST WEEK OF SCHOOL monday, was the first day of our new semester. thus, it was not a surprise that we had to go to school. therefore, that is what i did. after watching a late match, i found it rather miraculous that i had managed to adhere by my alarm clock's constant shrieking. therefore, i wasn't late for school. a start i couldn't have asked for more for. in the new big big auditorium, strolled in many familiar faces. some i wanted to see, some i did not want to see. also, some guy told me i had grown and he asked me whats my secret? after some adjectives he gave me, (fascination, jubilation, precision) i finally chose the one i thought fit best- the passing of motion. of course, the black hole was speechless. and the sun was shining. of course there was the usual crap bout me havin to cut my hair, get a new badge ( which i had lost while playing soccer 2 months ago and wasn't bothered to get one more). class was a total let down. no teacher wanted to have fun. thus, we did not have fun. we did however, watch a bit of farenheit 911. now i see the stuff from scary movie 4. after school, which ended 5 minutes late, i had to rush for a hospital appointment for some minor back problem. my appointment time was at 3.40. by the time i caught a bus, it was already 3.20. back home finally, my mom was kind enough to cook me some noodles while i took a bath. when we finally left home, it was 3.43. not to fear, my mom made a surprising decision of taking a taxi. so. we reached sgh at 4.05. well. the good news is. that i had nothing to worry about or nothing major that adds on to the knee and shoulder injury i had sustained. explaining the knee and shoulder injury.my knee injury was sustained somewhere this march. due to a freak accident when i was doing my standing broad jump practice at home. ( this year, i actually had a high chance of getting a gold. so i did not want my jump to ruin it) at my 4th try, when i took off, my knee cracked and i landed badly. couldn't walk for bout 10 minutes. when i could, i went down to the clinic which reffered me to the poly clinic which then referred me to NUH. i learnt that i had either twisted my knee, or broke the soft bone under my knee cap. well. it was both. i feel really guilty towards the doctor and physiotherapist as they try their hardest to heal me, yet i play soccer every where i go. even in the MGS classrooms during the MEP camp ( lol. sry again kyra) anyway, after skipping 2 months of physio therapy sessions, i started playing more competitive soccer on the school field again. a big mistake. now, my knee hurts worse than when i first got the injury.about my shoulder.honestly, i don't know when, where, who, what, why, and how i injured it. or as the doctor says, made it loose where it is hanging by a thread, on the brink of dislocation. this may rule me up for army. WHICH I AM NOT HAPPY ABOUT. you see. with my current family financial status, i have to do my best to be like my 2nd brother and get to OCS to support my university fees. if i get into one. thus, i feel i should start my physiotherapy sessions again, as it has recently felt even more loose than ever.anyway, back to my school life. tuesday was a bore. a total waste of time. however, the fact that jubilate was just a few hours away did cheer me up. and i would be finnaly be out on the streets set loose like a wild dog. before i had any chances of getting to jubilante, i had to test my luck with MEP. a late ending lesson would ruin hopes of eating dinner. however, i passed the luck test rather well and the lesson ended at 5.15. a record this year. even nathan was still lingering around in school. so i had company on the train ride. yeah. about jubilant.it is a st nick's music performance. i have not much comments about the performance as it might lead to my death. except that the acoustics were screwed up and the kids wearing chicken costumes was really really really funny. of course. due to my luck, i had to sit behind a sec 1 girl i knew, thus i had to keep a lower profile. or so it seemed. we probably caused the most heads to turn to look back at us than the performers themselves. anyway, i had this competition with siyi. the details of this anytime-anyplace-game...keep your TEN fingers on your mouth for as long as possbile.simple right?. yes. it was too simple and my competitor siyi matched what ever tricks i had under my sleeves to make the compettion last for half an hour. in the end, we decided that a draw was derserved enough for the 2 best audiences in the hall. screamed my lungs out when i could finally breathe/talk/look for my phone again. lets see. the performance... lets just say that i was listening to my mp3 about 1/3 of the time. THIS IS A TRUE STORY. PLEASE OPEN UP YOUR HEARTS AND DO AS IT INSTRUCTSthere was this happy little girl. she was very happily going out to watch a concert with her friends.in the concert, she played games and had fun. how ever. when the concert had stopped, so did the fun. and tragically, her heart. for 5 painful seconds, chung siyi had the realisiation of losing her wallet sink into her skin. as friends and cops searched the vicinity for evidence, every one was in shock, not knowing how somebody could be so cruel as to play such a mean prank on poor little siyi. thus, i urge the prankster of friendster to own up and return the wallet. if you do not wish to own up, just return the wallet. also, to tide siyi past this dark period, please donate to her lost wallet fund. please pass the money to me. leon yip. and i shall do my best to see that it reaches her. however, as i am only human, my best might not be good enough. so if you have a heart, please donate big amounts of money to the fund to me. and please ignore the state ment siyi gives on her blog. she wrote them as she was not mentally sound at that time to recognise me as the man donation collector.ANYWAY.... back to school on wednesday.i woke up at 6.30 wasn't too bad. as i usually wake at 6.20. thus, i just made it wihtout being late. i smsed SOMEONE at 6.45 to ask if the wallet was found. but that SOMEONE replied me at 9.00+ saying that she had just woken up. *clap clap clap* i forgot SN had a dumb holiday.anyway.. after playing more soccer, we were late for biology. with the biology teacher being mrs banerjee. you would've thought we wouldn't have cared. however. when we stepped into class, we had a shock of our minutes. it WASN'T biology. it was history. and it WASN"T mrs toh. it was some guy called mr wong ty (thank you) .thus, our stunning first impression was late. sweaty, not dressed in school atire and 15 minutes late. also, we were rowdy as hell. yay. what fun. new teacher.had conrad over at the house, chatted abit, watched mtvs and than as he went home.. i finally went to cut my hair. i must say, i am becoming more and more impressed with my hair cutter's skills. thursday today. only fun thing was e maths. mr keith tan really really rox. he really teaches us well. or at least i think he does. cause.. i understand CYCLIC QUADRILATERALS!!!!! oh. also, as i forgot to mention earleir.. on monday, a great break through for my studies was made. i understood my A-math's BINOMMIAL THEOREM!!! thanks mr.song. haha. i also conscientiously paid attention in class nad made notes here and there. also, i am proud to announce that i haven't been sleeping in class sofar. although i had started a fracas by throwing papperballs at random vietnamese scholars. thus, everyone now believes that bui nhat minh is gay and loves mr. brian ng.i shall end here. this has been a super long post.
