I Am An...

Opportunist!

What is an opportunist you might ask. Well, in layman's terms, an opportunist is a person, who, when accidentally falls into the river, says,

"What the heck? Oh well, I'll take a bath anyway!"

And no, I'm not that person who fell into the river! But yeah, I think I am something like that.

Case in point: I was supposed to wipe the windows using old newspapers.

Doing my work so enthusiastically.

But then, being the opportunist that I am, I...

Read the papers too.

My Friend Said...

That when you wake up at 4 a.m to study, it's easier for you to remember stuff. I gave an unconvinced look. Could it be? Like how Uncle Dexter puts it, wouldn't that time be The Battle of The Eyelids?

Nevertheless, taking my friend's idea seriously, I put my alarm to ring me up at 4 in the morning.

At 4, it rang.

At 4.01, I turned it off and went back to bed.

My Family And I...

Went to Tiara (not the one in PJ by the way) for a session of saun-ah and dinner. As we were walking back to the car, I saw my mom carrying a bag of our dirty clothes and thought I'd help, but it's always been my habit to ask my brother to do it first, if not I'd do it myself (though most of the time he does it).

Me: Ken, you see mommy carrying the bag! Looks so heavy! Go help her!

Ken: You go and help yourself la!

Me: You really don't want to help ar?

Ken: Nope.

Me: Fine loh, I help mommy then I'll get more reward in heaven than you.

Ken: What you mean?

Me: I'll just probably make a million more than you in heaven because of this.

Ken: .....

Okla! I take la!

Thinking

How do you determine when is the time to give up and stop believing or to continue to hope? It's like either being realistic or just not having sufficient faith in something. Here's an example.

Manchester United loss 2-1 to Chelsea. They were behind Chelsea by 4 points with 4 games to go. Do we become realistic and say,

"Well, the season is over."

or do we continue to hope, saying,

"The season's not over yet!"

Is it considered lack of faith to say the season is over at this point or being unrealistic to not say the season is over?

Football certainly brings out the philosopher side of people, or at least me. It's more than just 22 men chasing after a ball.

It's 23. We haven't added the referee.

I Was Surprised..

That there were no tips for Modern Maths today.

But then again...

I'd be surprised if there were tips for Modern Maths.

My friend told me about a friend who got caught with tips for Modern Maths.

.....

HUH?

I Have Become...

Numb towards the whole tips-for-exam thing already. Maybe because percentage doesn't matter anymore in trial exam. I'm even able to laugh it off when someone is able to recite the whole exam paper like he had just taken the exam, when in fact, it was supposed to be the next paper.

I think they don't know trial exam results won't affect SPM at all.

Ahh well.

It was Sejarah paper today. I was probably the few who didn't know the questions for Sejarah. I knew a question but I was already going to study it anyway.

Ahh well.

I guess this is what most students miss. The surprise of finding out what the questions are. Even if you don't know the answers.

Ahh well.

Parliament is fun.

HOHOHO

You Know...

The famous phrase uttered by Peter Parker's uncle, Ben Parker? For those who don't know, Peter Parker is Spider-Man, not some parking dude. Back to the point, in the 1st movie, when Peter was acting strange (and a bit rude), then Ben took hold of Peter, looked him in the eye, and said the famous line,

"With great powers, comes great responsibility."

Inside his mind, "Sob, sob. This is going to be my last line before I die in the movie."

It was certainly the line that got everyone's hair standing up and inspired when they heard him say that. Of course, Peter was busy thinking of wrestling so he didn't really listen. Well, to be honest, I did some thinking when I thought of the line.

What power do I have?

What responsibility do I have?

I then realised I really did have a power. The power of not being able to smell smelly things. I've learned something from this movie. Yes, with my power of not being able to smell smelly things, I shall take it as a responsibility to do the thing very few have done.

MBMB... Here I come.

Great responsibility. Seriously.

Find your power. Take responsibility.

Simile

Ken: Kor, your face got a lot of roadblocks :D!

Shaun: Izzit? Well, your face like moon, stomach like Jupiter, and eyes like Pluto!

Ken: Hey!

Shaun for the win!

My blog is already 1 year and 6 months old.
I didn't notice it until today.
I wrote this at 1.30p.m so the 2nd stanza would be more logical.

Ken's Streak Goes On

On the way back from Mc Donald's yesterday after chatting with Yen Mei and reciting the Big Mac Chant, Ken again combined people to get something out of it. But this time, it was super.... literally. He combined super heroes from Marvel. You see, all super heroes, when they hang out together for a long time, a group will form and they go by the group's name. Example, X-men, The Avengers (Ironman, Captain America, Black Panther, Thor) or arguably the most famous one, Fantastic Four. Ken decided the present groups were disappointing, not to mention the name, so he was combining the superhero:

Thor
Odin's son, enemy of Loki. A God who controls lightning and stuff.

Storm
The X-men woman. Acted by Halle Berry. Control wind and lightning.

Spider-man
Aah... The person would be living in a jungle (no offence to OA) if he/she does not know this dude.

And lastly..........

Spider-woman

Aah...The person would be living in a city (no offence to city people) if he/she knows this dudette. A very quiet superhero, change 4 times already. Nothing to do with Spider-man.

So this is the group of super heroes. Like they say, with great groups, come catchy group names. My brother decided to name them.......

The Windy Spiders

Cool name don't you think? I wonder what else this little boy can think of... Wolverine, Black Panther, Storm, Thor... The Thunder Cats! Wait, name already taken.... Looks like it's harder than I thought!

Ken has good Maths

When we were changing the bed sheets, he showed his superb but controversial mathematical skills.

Ken: Kor! You and me plus together will get Tse Shuen jie jie!

Me: Izzit?

Ken: You Sh and I En... then become Shuen!

The 'U' is probably the sUm of us both I guess. He did not stop there, but came up with a few more.

Ken: Papa plus Mommy then will get Puppy! And then hor, Hwei plus Shuen.... you get When!

I wonder who's the great fella who taught him maths....

More reasons why we should learn English

It was during Physics class and the teacher wasn't very fluent in her English. She likes to put 'S' at places you shouldn't put and it is really obvious she needs English classes.

Example one: She told us, "If you late pass up your book, then I'll chop you leg" Wow.....chop my leg if I pass up late? Turned out she meant 'late' instead of 'leg' and she continued, "If pass up late some more, then I'll chop both you leg".. I think she wasn't joking at all eh?

Example two: She was giving us a Chinese proverb that meant something like do not look at someone's outward appearance only, because the person might be talking bad about you at the back so look at both sides. It was alright and stuff, but when she translated it to English, it was, "When you look at people, must look at people's backside". Oh my, I couldn't keep my mouth closed after that statement, literally. It became the phrase of the day for me after that, looking at people's backside! Anyway, not sure what other interesting words she gonna come up with... Physics as Psychic? Nononono, I meant sai-chick.

Embarassment!

Goshies....sis wasn't so sure bout having youth today so she asked me to call dad. But then, when I called the number, I didn't know that I had dialed the wrong number! This guy with a low voice picked up the phone, with noise at the back. Hmmm, just like how I called dad in the morning just now. I told him bout the whole youth thing and then suddenly he went, "hello?". I was like, "nice prank dad" when he soon said, "This is the Jabatan......................." the others seem blur but then it didn't take me long to realise I was talking to someone whom I thought was my about youth!!!OH NOES~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Can't even write anymore.....

Geez...not again!

Yep....hehehe....Ken somehow fell into my trap again on Sunday before going badminton...Well, it wasn't meant to be a trap, he juz kinda set it up himself and jumped into it..It went like this...

Me preparing for badminton, haven't take out the racquets.

K: Kor, where you going?

S: Me ar? I going to your girlfriend's house.

K:.....Why you wanna go to Aunty Grace's house?

Opppssssss!!

supercallafredgilisticexpiellidocious does the job......again

Gulp...so fast again after juz one day. This time, it was 10% brilliance by me and 90% Ken blur. Conversation went like this again in dad's office.

S: Ken Ken, come read my blog!

K: Why must read?

S: Just read la very nice wan. Read this one (show him the last post)

Ken then repeats the same thing until he reached the Supercallafredgilisticexpiellidocious part. He reads slowly and finally gets it.

K: Supercalla lost in trans..hahahahahahahaha.

K: Ken is an idiot. AIKS????

Can't believe he fell for it again!

supercallafredgilisticexpiellidocious does the job

Today's wan really funny la. Ken was trying to irritate me by imitating me but Shaun where can get irritated wan?!?!?! Actually can la but in this blog, I suppose to have a lot of patience and in the end, Ken kena himself. Conversation went like this.

S: Why your stomach so big wan!

K: Why your stomach so big wan!

S: Stop it la!

K: Stop it la!

S: What you doing?

K: What you doing?

S: Supercallafredgilisticexpiellidocious.

K: Supercalla lost in translation after that.

S: Ken is an idiot.

K: Ken is an idiot. EH???

Geez, the word supercallafredgilisticexpiellidocious sure had its effect. Not only does it make certain people stop following what you say, it also makes that person call himself something he doesn't wan to become leh!!

The Truth Revealed

Last Sunday, with my mastery and trickery, Ken told me who he liked indirectly. The conversation went like this...

S: Ken, I tell you who I like want?

K: Okay.

S: I like... the person you like.

K: (With 2 seconds pause) Celine ar?

Didn't know this kind of technique also can use..not bad not bad
