e.Comp Craziness

Dear lord, I haven't had any time to write so yeah,

Anyways last week ( 15-19) was e.Comp2010, and yes you guessed it your all-time random storyteller was there to compete. But seriously this year's competition was rough and no it's not just Arlene Junstar the other competitors were good ( Honorable mention: Andra). I wish I could post a vid or something to show you how awsome the other competitors were!

Oh and this year was really strict, I even had my personal comitee-dude who followed and waited me to the bathroom. He was funky and pretty cool, but still dude who the heck follows a minor (teenager) to the bathroom and waits for them? it's not that I have a personal acting coach cramped up in the bathroom closet.
Anways let's keep this short enough to post pictures down here,
I meet this comittee guy, Sergio. Now this dude, we connect fast, like people thought that we were old friends ( he's old dadumcah) What I like about this guy is that he reads me, and I feel that we've been multiple persons. Please people I've been the nerd, the popular, the jock even the outcast. I've been so many people that I really don't know who I am. I'm stereotype-less, and in search of "who I am" eww that sounds so cliche'-like-every-teenlit-moral-thing. Well in short I've come to a solution, no matter how much advice or readings I get, I will still keep changing and I just need to handle this "problem" in a way I can see it as a beneficial side for me.

Enough! let the pictures roll!

OBEJECTION! CROSS EXAMINATION! HOLD A SEC!

Yes, I know. Ace Attorney /sighs

For some reason I'm craving games these days. Not those fighting games, they're fun with a partner but otherwise it's boring. You corner up your oppnent and beat them up til' they're KOed. What's so great about that? (other than the sexy chicks you can play as)

I'm more of a RPG-strategy-simulation type of person. Games that make you think without actually thinking. It brings out your true you, in a way.

Like for instance, me and my bro (Po). We have this deal where he helps me level up and pile up on enemies and I give out commands during bosses. Where in reality he's the pro in chess ( he's 10 and he beats 15-17 year olds) and I follow bruce lee's " Don't think FEEL" and kick ass.

Which reminds me about a conversation I had with marsha a couple of weeks ago, It's been a while since we both had a (3-hour) chat. The conversation started with talking about pastries and Mr E's good taste in choclate then in some way it developed into the "finding yourself"-talks. That's where I suddenly told her that I can't talk to multiple people at the same time aka. I can't talk to people in crowds, it's not that I can't handle crowds. It's more like I can't keep the convo going in crowds. She was pretty shocked with this since well, I talk alot and I'm that type of person who likes to talk to someone for hours, and I can actually keep it up for hours! Well the main reason why is that I when I talk to somene I give them my full attention, and I really can't split it. It doesn't feel right, I doubt that I won't be able to spilt my attention into two.

See it founds out that I'm a thinker. And yes I am shocked, so the only way I can talk to people is to either catch up on msn or to actualy drag them out of a crowd and talk.

It Finally Happened

Just like the title says, it finally happened.
The EC bukber and regeneration, I never wanted it. But good evening folks I'm the new EC president 2010/2011, fresh from the 11th grade oven. The new vice pres, the one and only Rizka Septiani. I hope we both can succeed as this year's EC staff :)

Oh, and I just made our EC 78's new twitter : follow our shenanigans @Englishclub78

And so sadly I have to end this post. yes I know it's ( finally) short, it's not that I'm lazy. Well I am lazy this time, I have a good reason to be! I'm sick, yes the effect of having multiple quizzes is finally kicking in. Kidd, I just lack of sleep that's all, As level is way too much to digest in just a couple of weeks ( even if it's just 2 chapters)

Do the math, cause I won't

You know why most people hate mondays? I assume it's because it's the first day of school/college/work after 2 days of fun and late nights.
Now let's do the math, thousands and thousands of kids in the world ( I guess) hates monday. Isn't it weird how one single day, can make so many people sigh with exhaustion? and how it ( in a way) unites us together? " We hate Mondays!" groups are made and joined in facebook and other social networks.In short let's put this together with the source. Conclusion : school is EVIL

Don't worry the teachers aren't evil, they're just buying the whole "school is good"-culture

Okay let's get to the point.

Have you ever been afraid? ever been afraid of doing something you know it could change your life forever?
Or more like have you ever been afraid of something you know you shouldn't be and thus making you act or even take simple actions that you know you wouldn't just to satisfy that being?

I've actually been wondering if fear, is the real reason why most people have power. It doesn't neccesary need to be your boss or your religion teacher (yikes!) it could be your mom or dad, even your friend!

Then this idea links to another question, why do they do it? why would they seem powerful or in this case fearful infront of others? From "tuesdays with morrie" he stated that people are mean because they're threaten.

Which links to another question. Why would they be threaten by certain people's presence? Can and why would they rely on their overly protective instincts to protect themselves? I wonder if it's our few animal-like instincs that makes us think like this. Like how a lioness protects her cubs from turist, and how us humans feel threaten and hunts them down.

Wait let's narrow the example :
like how a bully shows authority to a fellow student by fist fighting, the bully is unconsciously afraid of that fellow student because a reason or two, and the fellow student is afraid of the bully because of his (obviously, yet stereotypically) big ass fist and high taekwondo kicks.

This is why I prefer sitting down and disscusing this, without the unstable emotions please. The human emotions can only lead to chaos in a middle of a debate. I guess all we need is some understanding from each other.

Goal for now : Try understanding each other rather than jumping into conclusions.

OKAY TIME TO BE RANDOM

Drumroll Please!

Yes, you've guessed it right! The results are in :

ABCDD

Yes, there is a D in there. Boy how am I darn well satisfied with this. Well if you want to know more about the GCSE or CIE, I recommend you to go to the site. I really don't want to use my blogging space to explain everything about the exams. ( Oh and a high five to god, yeah you rock)

Now for my next trick I shall pull a rabbit out of my left nostril, joke. My next stop is As-level and (hopefully please let there be a) LSAT test.

LSAT is a preperation test and some kind of entrance test for law students, well it's a win-win opportunity for me. If I don't pass the LSAT I can use my TOEFL or ESL score, if I pass the LSAT test I can use my ESL score as a shield or a barrier to lead me through the hundreds of many warriors who are fighting for a spot in that major! But either way I still want to get through high school and get my Indonesian HS diploma.

Well that's if I don't move before my dad gets a "spot" outside Indonesia.

Clock

Well the GCSE results are finally coming in.
14th August 2010 will be the day bombs (my parents) will explode with all their fury.
It was nice knowing you web-world.

Anyways, I hope that I pass math and ESL . I'll be needing those two in the real world well more, like I'll be using them more when I get into college. I pretty much doubt about taking medicine, biology as my major..just the thought of it makes me feel sorry for my lecturer!

Eventhough that science may not be the best choice for me, but it's darn right interesting and un-surpisingly the most surprising! a baby is born with only 30 bones, but when it grows older it has 206. the small intestine can be as long as 2 grown men!

I'm rambling out of the topic again.
You know what I'd love to take? Law or International relations. Simply because I want to learn the regulations. It makes me wonder how simple written text can control, organize civilisation. (Our EC debate coach can laugh all he wants here) And you know what makes me even more curious? the power of speech, words well put together in a sentence mixed with the confidence of the speaker has more power than any water bottle thrown at by our house delegates. Ha!

Will I be randomizing today?

Haven't filled in the ol'blogg for a while. I made this account for about a year ago, sadly it failed a year ago. So I decided to start again ( read: Rotten cheese, new canvas?) and now surprisingly. This is the 15td post of the year!

Can I get a woohoo?


Oh, I've realized that it's been a year since twilight. and it took several months to get the "vampire-craze-epidimic" to sink, well it sunk because of the bebier-fever. Anyways when I thought it was on the end of it's glory days, new moon came up. A few months after that Eclipse came up popping on the screen. I was going to watch letters to juliet, the movie wasn't even out and I had edward's face on my popcorn bucket. A few days after that there was this gossip about a celeb sextape ( FYI : not a common thing in Indonesia) and it quickly leaked into other gossip.


Okay my point is that I don't really get why people buy into culture that much. Most of the articles we read in the magazines are mostly about unknown yet known people. And if that's not enought alot of people my age actually talk about this, as if it's something crucial to talk about.

But then again we are in our "let's search for who we are stage" Okay enough random yet weird yet serious talk here's a picture of a monkey!

You sexy thang.
