Absolved Absence

Band today.
Attendance was horrible. Again.
We practiced sexism super well. Again.
Some of us practiced badly. Again.
People overrode our domination over the hall. Again.

Only one junior other than Shou Heng and Han Jin came today. Red shirted trumpeter.
Also the only junior whose name I feel deserves your attention.

Had my piano class with interesting finger exercises. Talked to Sea Yunn about French, songs and people, French songs but not French people. Talked about assholes. You know who you are.

I don't care much if people are rich.
But you know what I really abhor?
People who don't really have that much money but act like they do.
Changing phones frequently.
Constantly upgrading and acquiring gadgets.
Constantly showing it off then whining when it gets stolen or broken.
Seriously, you're sadder than a depressed robot.
And that's saying something.

Repaired like 5 clarinets for band. Going to repair another soon enough. Cleaned up a 300 series trombone Mr. Mah said was ancient (nearly two decades old) and worthy only of the dumpster. Zhao is now using it. Maybe I should create a saying " Do want, do waste".

Screw all this homework.

Shake the banana

School is tiring as always. Not to mention boring most of the time. *rolls eyes*
PMD was ok for the first day, sucked the second. Speaker has got a firm grasp of the obvious. No offense =)
Pn. Wong got hyper with the snide remarks and chiding. No surprise. Right?

Stayed back on yesterday for the Chess club I don't really care about. I am 3 years out of practice due to lack of opponents. So we (Me, Lee Yuin and Ken Ric) just did something called "entertainment". Definition of "entertainment" here being "insulting Nicholas Tan". We ended up calling him "useless failed senior rugby player". Ok it's an inside joke, don't mind my little musings.

Lent Salmon Fishing In The Yemen to Jo, mother scolded me in the morning for lending it even before she and my sister have finished with it. Opps? Crapped about the book being paper because Andrew Wong asked what's that. We can be so cruel at times. Lame as well.

Funny how the Form 5's now (especially you hormonal boys) have started to eye Form 3 girls. Eh, you can look but don't oogle. I dunno, some of you even have GIRLFRIENDS already. I'm no genius but I think she won't be very happy even if she doesn't mind?

Oh yea btw Sivik homework sucks. So does Moral. And I just abhor Add Math. Physics & Sejarah I comprehend only out of school.
I wanna talk to you so much, whoever you think you are.

My wings clipped; My heart a void; My sight bleak; My memory destroyed

Anticipation overflowed from me from the previous night as I awoke.
Drinking the Rooibos tea I had made, I calmed myself for the run.

Arrived at school and talked a little.
Warm ups and stretching were dully done.
My category was to start late.
I had to leave at 11.

I wanted to run.

It was nearly 10 and P1 had just set off.
Mother came to pick me, hunted for Han Jin who was keeping my phone and wallet.
Said farewell.

I wanted to run.
Anticipation overflowed me.
I couldn't run.
I will never run again.

The bliss of the wind flowing with you.
The sound of the trees whispering.
The beat of your feet against gravity.
Time and space enveloping you.
Nothing on your mind except the hunt.
The hunt for sanctuary.
Losing all troubles and worries, just for a while.
Denied.
Never to run like that again.

They all came back, but only after lightning struck their wings.

Fuming

Fumes of sulphur dioxide filled the noses of over-enthusiastic 5B students.

Had a long day. Only Pn Shanta's class was truly enjoyable. (as usual)
Sleepy whole day and I don't really feel up to cross-country tomorrow.

Gotta leave school at 11 tomorrow. Mum has got work, ugh. Stay till 1.10? Sure, as long as you pay for my piano class and employ my mother with gross income of at least 5k not including allowances.

Class received Valentine's Day order forms from St. John and Interact today. Fuck you Valentine's Day. Lonely Valentine's Day again? Sure thing, just don't shove your bloody short-lived hormonal love under my nose. Yes I hate people who can't appreciate the relationship they have, or are stupid enough to take hormones seriously.

Han Jin has got epic crapping skills. Hey sexy.
Had a suspicion yesterday which I confirmed with Wei Loong today after school. Funny how obvious things looked to me even with indirect questions from me and not so indirect gestures made by him, so obvious it was almost funny. You people who know what I'm talking about(the whore), SHHHHHH...

These three roses crossed over my heart. One for the past, one for you to remember always, one for me to forget. I send wings to watch over you.

Gone Again

Went for band yesterday. Mother insisted on walking. Got there and saw the group doing warm ups. Scuttled over to join in. Vincent told us to run 10 rounds, no cutting line. Big wave of protests.

Ran 10 rounds or so. Went and cleared the residue of the dead cat with Han Jin, Lik Wei, Shuang Yi, Shou Heng, Nelson and Guo Qian the Form 1 guy who both called me "斯文" and accused me of being a Form 3. We have to work together to make things happen. Yes, band members require so many hands and heads just to do a cleaning job.

Played Isabella. Fairly simple though I played a succession of semiquavers a little slow. Saxes kept screwing something so I played the same bars over and over. Got scolded for playing "wrong rhythm". Se Ying introduced to us me, Wei Liang and Zek Zhao something called band language. All you say is Ta,Ka,Tang,Un,U. Our greatest swear word is:

"NELSON TANG"

Went straight to piano class stinking from practice again this week. Teacher reprimanded me for not practicing the piece he gave me. Got a Czerney and Petite Mari, Petite Femme-duet. Did sight-reading which I kept backtracking to correct mistakes and got forced to go on again and again.

Borrowed clarinet from Aik Hooi. Thanks la. I will take care of your baby.

Went for morning jog at Bukit Kiara today with mother and sister. Met Aunty Lee Chen while walking. Chatted for a while then ditched mother behind to jog with her. Covered 2 rounds before going for breakfast. Did not get tired.

Returned and prepared to prepare lunch. Not looking forward to school. Not unless you've got something fun for me. Ok maybe I'll go see my crappers. Maybe I'll start doing Moral and Sejarah. Maybe I'll even attend tuition classes I don't believe in.

Looking for more inspiration for my writing. But people are so dull these days.

小姐

That's what Mr. Mah called me when I played Colours of the wind. ==

Little Form 1 Pengawas Percubaan and new band member called my face "斯文" today. Didn't know how to react.

Dealt with a dead cat yesterday, got sick from the full blast of the miasma. Wee Ren too, nearly vomited and ran away but he stayed. Big hero. =)

Got to school late today due to sickness and all 3 alarms in the house konking over one night. Went into school with Tsui San and Zhee Laine greeting me with smiley faces and shaking heads. Prefect mercilessly copied my name down. But who cares, I'm nearly never late.

Had homework for every subject today. Thanks Pn. Shanta for making me laugh like shit.
Band tomorrow. Gonna kill maggots, weeeee.

Call me stalker huh?
You want a stalking demonstration, you'll get it.
Trust me, I will scare every last one of you.

Belle

Had 4 free periods today in the absence of Pn Sujatha.

During Chemi me and PST Leader 4 *ahem* Jzensen had a wonderful time deciphering Pn Poh's exceptionally beautiful writing. A lot of homework.

Went for EST and then opted out with PST Leader 4 *ahem hem hem* JZENSEN. Went and hung out with him and Kenny at Bilik HEM for a bit.

Saw the E class big gang coming for Leo/Interact outside while waiting for transport. High-fived Hon Vee. Tsui San said "Jingle Bells" to me again. Feigned ignorance.

Have a sudden desire to spin my web of tales again.
I heard that an English major teacher in SMK USJ12 spelled "animals" as "aminals" and "appreciate" as "appriciate".
Epic.

Comment from a Muslim on the "Allah" issue, in reply to a comment and Sea Yunn's recent post.

"Anonymous said...

To Rentap,

Your 'If you are not a muslim, you will never know..' comment is very uninteligent and in poor taste.

What the writer of this blog is ultimately addressing is why the need to burn down other religion's place of worship. It is henious, shamefull & the greatest of insults. Shame on us indeed. For a drop of an ink, the whole milk is spoiled.

I am a muslim, & i uphold much respect of other religions as is practiced & encouraged by our great prophet Muhammad S.a.w (pbuh). Take for i.e the 'Constitution/Charter of Medina'. In that constituion, the prophet Muhammad (pbuh) states that i will protect the non muslims (jews, kristians & pagans) as i would protect my fellow muslims for all of thee are my citizens. All have the freedom of practice their own religion, freedom of property, freedom of work etc. Im sure you as a fellow muslim as well are familiar with this for it was taught to us in school. NEVER is a place of worship of another religion is destroyed during the prophet Muhammad (pbuh) time even in times of war.

However, i do need to point out that the way the author start this post in the first paragraph is poorly done as well. Mind you, dear author, the word Allah is not a 'Stupid word' as you put it. It carries great weight to many people. Please do not succumb to become those of the ignorant & disrespectful, even though it is not ones intention. Please have a care.

I do commend her though for a 16 year old,(though much to learn) her stance is correct and should be encouraged. Reason & civilised discussions/debate is always key.

Cheers to all & blog author.

Ariff ;)"

Listen to the wise man Ariff, those who call yourselves Malaysians.

Happy Birthday Voon Yee.

Your daily dose of crap from the average hyper crapper

I woke up this morning with the stomach ache from the previous night lingering until lunch.
Ate a piece of peanut pancake and a packet of breast meat chicken rice.

Onlined and had a chat with Sea Yunn, Thye Way and Aik Hooi. Crapped a little, talked about stuff a little.
I wish I could be less serious but life won't let me.

Went to Klang to take sister out of the place some people call a hellhole better known as Sekolah Menengah Hin Hua. Went and had an early dinner of Bak Kut Teh. Don't really enjoy the meat, took lots of the rest. After the final round of chinese tea, we left for Tesco.

Bought lots of junk food. I looked myself in a mirror in the hypermarket and for a moment wondered who the hell is that.
Suddenly missed 林汗巾 (yes I know that's not your name) and his crap about 古古老 and 丢多.
I was driving the trolley around and many people just didn't choose to realize that I was pushing a trolley around and so I had to strive to avoid their sorry bums and ankles. You're lucky I don't take your ignorance as an invitation to ram your ass.

Another random realization that I've touched female underwear 2 times, banged my left toes 2 times in the same spot and went to Hin Hua twice today. Onlined twice, got hyper twice, blogged twice..... All in one day. Yes I am that bored.

Need to find something else to think about.
Save me please.

WHERE IS MY SUNSHINE?

Bandages for the bandie

I woke up Saturday morning and did a little Math and Add Math.
Thought about what this year will bring again.
Got a pretty good idea what I can expect, including a big scolding from Pn. Shanta.
"How come you are out of class all the time? You are the AJK la hello. I am very fussy about students missing my class."
Or similar.
Sorry.

Walked over to Petronas USJ4 to wait for Chin Yi's mum. Saw Jit Qi pass by I think. Reached school and saw Zhao waiting for his bottle from the Shers' mum outside the gates.
Randomly noticed that many members were wearing the Drill Squad t-shirt.
I still think it's ugly in a way. Stupid correction square for "square".

Did warm ups in front of some new members in the hall and did push-ups, stretching and sit-ups for the first time during band practice in a long while.
Girls having period (or not) are excused several rounds of those I'm sure.
Ran around the hall blank-mindedly, didn't care how many rounds I ran.
Among the first to finish though I really don't care.
Made me feel better, cleared my mind a little.

Transferred stuff to Taman Herba. Saw the horde of new members sitting down in front of Mr. Mah. Watched them practicing under the sun while Mr. Mah advertised his music tuner which I hope is not Made In China.
Watched them under the sun even more during song practice.
Watched both juniors and seniors after finishing my practice on the new song. Sat near the benches next to Wei Loong trying not to think.

Mr. Mah passed me "United Nations" to replace missing scores. No Havana Express or Banana Express for me please I have a life of eating and sleeping beyond writing scores out.

Waited outside for transport with Marcus, Zhee Laine, Tze Jing, Wee Ren, Zek Zhao, Chin Yi, Pui Yan, Bryan, Wei Loong and Hon Vee. I remember because I had nothing better to do at the time.
I also remember Bryan jumping around like a monkey, Sheep passing by, Pui Yan borrowing my phone, Pui Yan mistaking a car for hers, me talking alot of crap, talking about DSLRs and Mac Books with Zhao and Vee, Marcus talking about Piccolo on the way out, Chin Yi talking really loud on the phone.... Bryan complaining about not having hot girls to look at.

Teacher Anne of Anne Musikschule arrived in a red Myvi containing my sister after only Pui Yan, Hon Vee and Zek Zhao were left. Said my goodbyes and went on the long journey to DJ.
Met new piano teacher who is a Master in Piano Performance, Chee Yean. Had alot of sight reading. Did Mazurka in G minor and a Haydn piece.

Went home at about 5. Had glass noodles which made me sick until this morning. Showered since I still stank from morning practice.

Very nice day compared to the rest of 2010 really.
Very nice.

How the maniac began again

Went to market this morning. Came back home and did some cleaning out on the porch and *OMG* I found a bee's nest dangling from one of the hanging plants. Kinda big too. My garden has had spiders, millipedes, earthworms, snails, fish, wasps, bees, dragonflies, butterflies, used to have chickens visiting, 3 generations of cats coming to give birth and what next? Dogs? Cows?

ELIFANTAY? CHIHWAHWA?

New year was pretty uneventful. Stayed home and ate home cooked food, had some online goodness/badness, watched Corpse Bride (again). Hardly slept I think.
I remember when we used to stay up all night every new year watching the countdown on TV. Maybe some movies or something and little snacks. No more though.

Found out last night that the Backstreet Boys have an album called This Is Us. It's amazing really how they lasted so long. Used to be such a sucker for their music. Still like it.
Oh ya, only hormonal girls and wannabe boys like Backstreet Boys, yea yea I've heard that shit before.

Look forward to writing "05-01-09".
Then grab your liquid paper and mutter to yourself.

"05-01-10"
Yes, the fun's over already, shame.
