american idol begins in abt 15 min.

i've got an el compo to complete by fri, titled 'Just Do It. Is the above an appropriate slogan for youths today?'. actually, i've to do a 2nd draft after my pathetic 24/50 1st draft was not acknowledged by the teacher, that albeit the fact that i had use a 'Zenith' essasy as reference. misinterpretation, as my teacher has so effortlessly pointed out as my problem. i guess alot of issues are based on one's perspective. jw kept squeezing an ans out of me to his qn as to whether one should still uphold equality despite the fact (assumption rather) that many are not doing so. yea, it really does depend on perspective, or as ls has so aptly put it, 'everything is relative'. if that is so, would that mean that moral values are important, not because that they are important, but rather that many have believed and seen it as so based on personal judgements and conclusions? using the analogy that if u were to ask if it was alright to rob a bank, a bank robber and police officer would give two extreme ans : yes and no.

so are we all living based on how others think or perceive the world to be? does it mean that personal opinions matter nothing, as where you stand on the social ladder is based on their impressions of you?

sadly. maybe.

american idol has started.

the day before fmaths test

alot of people have been saying that i walk very slowly, or at least, slower than them. i can only guess that's because i have the tendency not to push myself. this habit is evident in not only my nafa grades, but also my chem tests. maybe over the years i've realised that pushing myself too far and much will not help me whatsoever. i hate to rush. esp when i gotta head for sch in the morning, the anxiety of beating the clock to reach school punctually gets to me. i like to take my time, and not rush to my death. i doubt anyone is looking forward to that eh? well, almost everyone i'm sure. kinda scary though, come to think of it. it's like you're gonna sleep, and never wake up. it's so..surreal. i'm not exactly afraid of it, just cant imagine what it's like.

on a different note, life's been the usual . school and tests and rahman. realised it's more tedious and tiresome to get through rahman's periods (no pun intended) w/o jevan, since all attention is on me now to hand him that 'form'.

yes, you guessed it. the drop form.

the grades are so depressing at times that the drop form might be my only anti-depressant left, my therapeutic cure. then again, i am no psychiatrist myself, and my diagnosis might simply be an outcome of my inexperience. hence, i shall have to be content with my E grade, which i need to push to like a C asap.

on an absolutely different tangent, i've been trying to take the bus home from paya lebar mrt station at arond 6+, in hope of seeing this girl whom i noticed last wed. i wouldnt have paid any attention to it if it was nothing out of the ordinary, but i kept having this vibe that she was looking at me. ok, so maybe i'm just overeacting, but whenever i keep checking to see if my bus was coming, i'd notice her looking in my direction. either she's looking at me, or there is some really suave guy standing behind, which i didnt bother to check. all i know is that she takes the same bus as me, alighting one stop before me. to make matters worse, she wasnt wearing any sch uniform, so i'm back to square one. i seem to have alot of time at hand to bother with this nonsense, but it beats doing tutorials.

oh what am i saying?

a rare sight of goodness

was on my way home today on the bus when it stopped as usual, to let an old lady(trust me, old as in granny-old) board. she found difficulty in her ascent to the seat of her choice, and i bore witness to a rare incident of...goodness. the bus driver gladly offered assistance to pull her up the steps to her seat, and did not carry on with his routine drive until she was safe...safely seated.

later on, i realised his good intentions had no bounds. indeed,as if the goodwill of the driver was enough to leave me in awe, he even took the liberty of paying for her ticket. all this happened as i was savouring the comfort of my seat.

moral of the story?

i've not thought of one. just felt that my experience was worthy of your time.
