Yea, so I've been away for a long time. Have been meaning to write that Term 4 roundup but I'm just too busy/lazy/preoccupied with other more pressing matters to just sit down and write. I'll leave that for now and just hope to get back to it soon. But knowing me, probably not...
Been feeling lethargic lately, probably because of constant late night work and incessant tennis. When insomnia goes and the fatigue sets in, it really hits hard and I've been trying hard to maintain a good state of health lately to the point that Mr. Sutherland (of all people!) noticed. Oh well... Just have to try my best to balance out my time then between snoozing and working. AND THE BRILLIANT RAINY WEATHER DOESN'T HELP EITHER... Every time it rains I'm just so tempted to curl up under my blanket and snuggle up to my pillow, bolster and Nicky and just go to sleep. ISH... Pathetic fallacy, pathetic fallacy...
Freaking hate people who have no pride, especially when it comes to winning. I mean, come on, beat me with your real game if you want to prove that you're good, not play some crap tactics which I know 1) I can't win, 2) Look damn bad on you and 3) doesn't mean anything. The scoreline is just utter nonsense. That's twice this year now. Ish... Bastards. Can't even enjoy a proper competition these days with these kind of people around. Melaka players have WAYYYYY better sportsmanship, and don't get me started on court abuse and chucking racquets around...
Nadzimuddin played really well for Inter-House hockey this year, considering that we were favourites to end up last. Might not seem true but seriously, the only two sports that we aren't freaking favourites are hockey and basketball. Our team did brilliantly to take the game to other houses and at some points in the game actually looked poised to snatch victory from much more fancied opponents if not for bad luck, poor finishing and defensive mistakes. Final verdict: 2 draws and 1 loss, ending on 3rd in the table, which is credible. As captain Maas said, 'For Nadzi guys, a hockey win is a win, a draw is a win and a (credible) loss is a draw.' Good effort guys, and I'm sure everybody who watched would agree. Oh and yea, I'm sick of people saying that every Nadzi sports team are made up of rugby players. Come on just because Nadzi are 8 times reigning rugby champions doesn't mean we're only good at that. The fact is the core of every Nadzi team is made up of the most versatile players (namely Jun, Ash, Maas, Yusmin, Ben) who can play every inter-house sport well. Just because most of them played rugby for the school doesn't mean you brand them rugby players. Hey, they play football more often these days and I don't see people branding NAQ people hockey players as well when they field almost similar teams in inter-house too. Ish... Mindless stereotyping...
Last 24 hour stretch to submission of yearbook (first edition) to the printer. Dinner with the principal and his wife tonight too but not really keen on that... Keep your fingers crossed that my team make this deadline. More on that later when I finally get it done. Pray that we make it now rather than another delay. Can't wait to see how it will work out in print!For now, just another song to keep people going. I notice that I've been doing this quite frequently but some things just can't be expressed in prose.
Teardrops On My Guitar
Taylor Swift
Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see
That I want and I'm needing everything that we should be
I'll bet she's beautiful, that girl he talks about
And she's got everything that I have to live without
Drew talks to me, I laugh cause it's so damn funny
That I can't even see anyone when he's with me
He says he's so in love, he's finally got it right,
I wonder if he knows he's all I think about at night
He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do
Drew walks by me, can he tell that I can't breathe?
And there he goes, so perfectly,
The kind of flawless I wish I could be
She'd better hold him tight, give him all her love
Look in those beautiful eyes and know she's lucky cause
He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do
So I drive home alone, as I turn out the light
I'll put his picture down and maybe
Get some sleep tonight
He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do
He's the time taken up, but there's never enough
And he's all that I need to fall into...
Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see.
First thoughts on it was that it was pretty much trans-gender despite the lyrics, meaning you could easily change the "she's" to "he's" when you sing, and trust me when you get into the mood, that tends to happen. 'Drew' is pretty much a trans-gender name as well...~Zhongy~
