Today, yours truly, am so proud of herself!!! It was cross country- a gruelling 3.2km scenic tour by the canal. My original intention was not to even run, but...seeing all the slackers signing out, and the school heavily guarded, I changed my mind and decided to WALK. you see, the school was 'heavily' guarded in fear of little pioneers escaping= one JI man escaped from detention and he has the country looking for him. in the end, they let the guys go first, and before we even started, the fastest guy was almost done (he completed 4.8km in 16 mins). so jingwei, jiaxin and i RAN all the way to the bridge (which was half the route) to meet prabs, qiang and leonard- who were nice enough to be the last few guys, and wait for us. and thus, my walking began...it seemed NEVER-ENDING. just for one event, i broke 2 principles: the first cross country to run, and to run simply not to keep others waiting. I'm exhausted.
i chanced upon jingwei's blog (i don't think she knows i reads it) and found 2 really funny comments:
"Jamie made a comment on how vulgarities is made to be acceptable in literature. Haha. I find that very true too. In literature, vulgarities and curses are used very often for self expression, and those words fit in very well! Even our literature teachers aren't that clean mouthed themselves, much less the literature students! I mean, how can the content that streams from your mouth be very clean when Shakespeare is especially fond of using "bastard" and "mongerel bitch", and almost every Plath poem has phallic connotation? For the unmotivated, phallic connotations refer to imagery of penises. Well, literature is afterall a reflection of human life, and the lives we lead are pretty much vulgar. We aren't exposed to flowers and fluffy bunnies all the time you know? Poets and writers fuck alot, so there's bound to be alot of fucking in their written works too. Haha. "
most people think poetry is boring-simply because, unless you think hard enough, you would never understand what the poet was trying to put across. for those sex-orientated people, you might wanna consider poetry instead of slapstick porn. who would've thought poets were such sexual beings?
"This is my favourite Greek Goddess, Athena goddess of war. She's known for her wit, cunning and wisdom, as compared to Ares the God of war. Ares is more well known for brute force and manly manly war like qualities. See, even in ancient times, the people already recognize that men are complete dickheads."
the weekend, AT LAST. I'm not looking forward to march AT ALL.
no love...ok, maybe SOME love,
