God's Blessing

CCC: Chin Peng>>> Communisn>>>Christ??
But from Communism to Chirst?? Here, on the former, it's known to be an radical ideology which believes there is no God. And on the latter, he's the "Way, the Truth and the Life"
Actually, it's possible. Let me start with Chin Peng. If many of you had actually look through the new(and boring) version History Textbook, he is one of the main leaders who help form Malayan Communist Party. He is also viewed as one of the guys who call the shots in killing people, destroy property and taking M&M's from babies.
(Communist's favourite pastime)
Anyway, communism 0, Democracy 1. So why does many people during that time embrace the Alliance's concept of democracy? It could very well be the fact that communism didn't take the right step in promoting communism properly. As you all knows, CMP was linked with several striker from workers, train crash, assaults on plantation by innocent farmers and many more cruel acts. They broke the first rule when it comes to promoting an ideology: Never, ever disrupt the lives of people even if you intent to give the same thing to them.
Democracy was also seen as a shining light during those bleak ages. The opportunity to have a say in the goverment, vote the people to represent you to voice out the needs of the people, education for all and most importantly the ability to govern the country independently. Actually, some of these aims were also part of the CMP's agenda, but they don't have a proper institution, and most importantly, the support of the British Empire.
(Malaysia: Meet my elder brother and my step-sister, the drag queen with the beard)
Now where did I heard this from? Hmmm...yes, the most unlikeliest source of all.....
Infact, Jesis also strived for a kingdom where everyone is equal before God's eyes. And this is evident with the acceptance of Gentiles into the Kingdom of God. Now, they have all the privileges the Jews used to have with God. This is definitely good news for me and all my fellow friends who does not have a Father who looks like Elliot Yamin, or a brother like Adam Lambert!
(Frankly, I hate him. No more,no less)
I believe the answer is simple. They don't have Christ as the center of the household. If they don't have Christ as their leader, who are they serving?
It's money!! Money has always been the problem since people began to realize the barter system is obsolete. It is the "root of all evil" and Communism took a downturn after corruption tooks it's place in the communism hierarchy.
God also fixed the problem even before it got hold of the early church. When Annias and Sapphira tried to deceive the people into thinking they gave the whole lot for the poor, when they actually kept some of the profit, the Spirit came down on Peter and he condemned them to death.
See, I believe Communism is a decent concept ever conceived for the well-being of others. But because Christ was not in the center of communism, it will never flourish, and worse still, they will have a hard time hanging on to the very last thread of survival.And Yes, Democracy took over the world by storm and is viewed as alot of superior against Communism, but if they turn their backs away from Jesus Christ, I believe the Kingdom of God will come sooner than we allthought it would be.

Beauty
So I answered the one-word essay and this is what I wrote for the examinations, I think."
I always wonder why is there such a quote such as "Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder". Initially I disagree with this statement. Since when Beauty was such a bias thing? Isn't beauty supposed to be universal??
So here I am with my friend, sipping our English Tea. As we chatted among ourselves all the things we done during the holidays, suddenly my friend pointed out the artwork on our tea cups.
"I'm fascinated by the artwork on the cups. Don't you think it takes alot of talent and patience to come up with such details?" He commented.
"Well, I think it is a load of crap".
He was stunned. I must admit art isn't really my forte. It could be due to the fact that I never really love artwork that much.
After that, we payed our bills and left the shop, walking along the streets. Then out of a sudden, a lass walked pass by me, and what a sight that is. She had eyes like Sapphire and a figure that could rival that of Venus or even Megan Fox for that matter. But my friend just shrugged his shoulders, saying that she look more like a Drag Queen to him.
A drag queen? Come on! She is the girl of my dreams, even more so for many other people to be exact. He must have been from another planet or a lesbian to say that girl was a "Drag Queen".
"Now this my friend, is beauty". My friend then said.
"What? Who? Where?". As I look around, found nothing decent, let alone attractive.
" Here, my sister."
Her sister? He must be seriously out of this world. His sisters has so many freckles and pimples she would scare the living daylights out of Frankenstien! But I can't blame him, because he used to have a brother who recently just passed away. So it's a no-brainer why he treasured his sister so much.
After they had a brief chat, she left us and walked towards the town mall. Apparently she is going to the mall with her friends.
" Isn't she a beauty?" My friend asked.
Okay, so what am I supposed to say? I'm now caught between the devil and the deep blue sea.
" She's.....different today". I spoke with a smile
My friend smiled back at me, I hoped it wasn't sarcastic as mine. So after that, we parted ways. He had to buy some groceries for his mother while I walked back alone, after I take a detour around a lake.
As I walked along,I sat on a stone bench.It was quite clean so I lied down for a moment. I can't help but notice the evening scenery. The sun is descending, along with it came rays of orange painted on a purple canvas. The birds are flying, drifting through the breeze that pass by me.I closed my eyes and ponder back on my memories.Then something stopped me.
"Mum, can we go back now? This place is boring". A child whined.
"Dear Jimmy, we will go home soon. Okay?"
The mum and child then walked away. Then I thought to myself,"Indeed, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder".

SPM!
Wednesday, November 11, 2009
7 Days....and it's not enough! (For some of us anyway)
I never intend to spoil anyone's day (if it isn't spoiled) and announce that SPM will start in 7 MORE DAYS. But behind all the expectations and "excitements" that happens around this time of the year, I began to realize that my days of White uniforms and cheap slacks are numbered...and it's no double-digit integer.
When I was in Standard in SRJK(C) Chong Cheng. We've been celebrating once UPSR was over. And when the final day in my primary school was going to end. Many of us began to shed tears, cause we may never meet again...I had one friend who was so sad he was bitter in his heart, and kicking his bicycle many times-- And that friend was a really good friend.
As I look back at my Hamid Khan school life, it was enjoyable.I faced many setbacks,(some because of my wrongdoings) and disspoinments, in fact there were many things I wished I could have done to make a difference or have a good experience. It can be from forgetting to buy a share in the "Ko-Operasi" to being a better CF leader, or even trying to be a Warden for a while.
Mind you, I still don't like my school's prefects. It's not because they have to enforce the laws, the problem I have with them is that they sometimes break the laws....heck I can say some of them are worse than the ordinary schoolmates. Yes, there all a few Good Apples in the body but then again....they are the minority. I still remember one time I go against one prefect (who was a senior) for not asking some people to line up while he hold us up.
It is these moments that define one's school life. Now I'm going to face the same thing all over again. This time, it'll definitely be the last.
Unless I don't study in Form 6 though.

The last BK lessons?

Untitled.......for now.
Anyway, school has been relatively quiet these few days. And I mean it literally. Attendances has been predictably very low, and although the HM will do something about it, I doubt any of the "soon-to-be" school leavers will pay a single attention to her.
We'll see about that, but I must admit I like a smaller class. It's easier for me to do my studies this way. But oh well, it's the school's calling. They have to execute power to show they are still relevant and mean business to the students. Let's hope they are not like our National Football Team with all the teeth broken from all the whipping they get playing against other lesser teans. What tigers.....

Post-Trials Fun; Pre-SPM preparations
Now, my trial exams are over! Got all the results, pretty decent I suppose. So what's a student gotta do? Prepare for SPM!
This may seem ironic for an average student, but I enjoy going to school now. Alot of my classmates are not attending school (apparently they want to study at home), and attendance is--at times-- an all-time low. Except for some cases where miraculously most students will turn up on a certain day ( 28/37) and days where 5S1 won't even turn up. (10/37)
As for me? I'm forced to go to school most of the time. It's really hard for me to get permission to skip school. First, I have to go through my mum, the I have to go through my dad who is alot harder to convince. So I plan out when I decide to skip school provided I have enough reasons that are plausible for me to sleep in in my bedroom.
But even if I have to go to school, I still enjoy it. At times, me and my friends will study in the physics lab cause Pn. Lim is so gracious to let us study there. It's alot more peaceful, conductive and a cleaner place for me to do some exercise or even the occasional chit-chat among us.
I'll TRY to blog as often as I can, so stay tune!

Unneccessary Maths Equation + Good for Nothing Rapper = This Random Post
And as you all would probably know, it will be the Add Maths paper. It has been the most hyped up topic in our class cause :
1) It's THE subject to score(and fail) in science stream SMK Hamid Khan
2) We have the whole week of holidays to study
3) A s0-called "Ninja" teach us---at "Ninja" speed.
So,I revised my paper and went over the Perak trial paper for 2008. So I guess I'm pretty pumped up for the exam. I think.
(Sorry, I can't think of any other symbol after dealing with them for so,so, long)
(He couldn't be pictured better)
Despite many apologies, he knows what happened on that night will surely tarnish his already screwed up reputation. I mean, any man in the right mind wouldn't do suck a stunt and it has already received condemnation from many celebrities and even him.
You know, I think this is his publicity stunt cause he's career is at mediocre at best . Look at him, he has a music video that had a pornstar(Touch the Sky), a song that "borrowed" tunes from two helmet-wearing guys(Stronger) and a song with T.I. that is surpassed by an American Idol's version.(Heartless)
But he isn't a stranger to dissing fellow artistes in public. Remember the last incident where he wasn't happy about getting the "Video of the Year" for "Touch the Sky"? He thinks that his video should win cause it has:
1) A Pornstar
2) He flying in rockets
3) Refer to 1 and 2.
But I have to admit that these days, sex+explosion is the "in" thing right now. Just look at Transformers.
(Flawless formula, what can go wrong?)
In the end, all the best to Taylor Swift just for being Taylor Swift and a slap on the face for Mr. Douchebag, although some ass-spanking on him would be good too. But let us not go overboard, I do think Mr. Douche-bag should deserved an award for all the crap he has been giving to all of us.

Raya Holiday
So, to kill of time, I decided to reinstall Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault. It was quite an old game that I used to play often, but as time goes on, it got shelved. Out of boredom, my bulb just light on and I dug out old games I used to play often.(very often)
Until then, happy holidays!

Hardy harr harr..
I just can't help but laugh at some of the captions for these pictures:
Warning- hanging w/ frat boys may cause rectal bleeding.
You know, it isn't right when the one dressed as a duck is the manliest guy in the group.
That's actually just one Flash trying out several different pick-up approaches at once.
This isn't what I meant by flash mob.
He's still a lot better than Nickleback.
You should see him with the piano.
It's pretty clear what PacMan thinks of Minesweeper.
This must be what the Mayans were talking about

At least one of them must have been your favourite. Which is it?

Trials
And it would be the inevitable period where people will mourn or groan aloud that they can't do it, will fail their subjects badly and daa dee daa dee daa...
Okay, I admit I was amused by that. But it does not justify those who work hard for their results and earned 8A's or more. Some to the extent of 20. Are you trying to suggest that those who study so hard that they would leave out their daily chores? You think these people are zombies???
(Pictured: SPM top scorers)
At the end of the day, everyone can do well in their studies. Some may not be academically talented, but they can still earn a decent score. As for me, all I want is that I have the assurance that I done well and that "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith."- 2 timothy 4.7
So, study without fail cause you will fail without study. (I hope I can copyright this phrase)
Until next time.

GOD- Great on Degrading.
But what I want to give you a glimpse of our society isn't found in the song, rather it was the people who were seating behind me. One, in fact there's two of them, were talking among themselves and wondered who was the guy who presented that item. Then one of them said it was Pastor's Kok Aun's son.
"OH MY GOD!!! It is him!! Wow, MY GOD, he has grown so tall".
"Yeah, he even sounds and act like his father, OH MY GOD."
Great, now people are using God's name in vain not only in public, but in his Sanctuary??? God's name is holy, it is his name that commanded evil spirits out of people, it is his name that the lame can walk, the deaf can hear and people are saved to meet him in heaven. All because of his holy name.
Did you know? Back in the times of Ancient Israel, anyone who uses God's name in vain will be punished....to death by stoning. Yes, that is how serious the offence was. And now people are beginning to swear by God's name and go 'Oh My God' when something big happens. OMG (Pun intended)
The reason these people are not condemned to stoning these days is because :
1) By God's grace he endures our sin
2) Stoning is so old-fashioned compared to electric chairs or death injection
3) There's no more stones around cause it's been used to construct new churches without any regard for the people's welfare.
And my church is building a new church.....beside our old one (if you don't consider the AIA building). Pretty much like building a nuclear reactor beside one. One is enough to impact one's neighborhood, two will likely create a rivalry between both churches to see who can 'harvest' more.
Back to the topic, it isn't cool to use God's name in vain as opposed to the movies.(Sometimes I wonder when will it go passe). The least you could do is "Oh My Goodness", but I don't think God's goodness should also be taken lightly. Right?

Blogging Tips
Turns out, my bandwidth did not go to waste. In this particular link, the author says that blogs are not essential to everyone. I repeat: IT's NOT ESSENTIAL TO EVRYONE. It really gave me a clearer picture on this blogging trend as I see too many people starting one and yet stop posting for about a couple of weeks. Just as what an old chinese adage:半途而废 (literally meaning that you progress halfway before wasting all the effort).
This is because not everyone wants to reveal what are they doing their whole life. They also won't enjoy Twitter or even Plurk. So what the author is trying to say is : If you have something to say to the internet community, then blog; If not, forget about it
But some of the tips are a bit way too much for me to handle. 3 posts per day? I admit I don't have the capacity to brain storm effectively, let alone 3 blog post per day. My aim for now is to blog at least twice 2 day. Maybe more depending on my time, my mood and whether my mum decided that I should earn a living by blogging.
Besides that, I'm not really a photo blogger, so the link for cropping photos in one go is maybe not that necessary for me yet. Perhaps in the future? Maybe. So I better save the link.
"Draft ideas as they happen." Now that is something I would like to point out. I agree that the best ideas or inspiration doesn't necessarily comes when facing the desktop(or your laptop for that matter). Ideas can come from everywhere, from Proms to Short stories(e.g. the Pearl) or even cockroaches. Yeah, it's true. My friend wrote about it and my oh my it gave me some chuckles.
Well, you can visit the link at the intro to learn more about this blogging tips. And now, I'm gonna cancel my nuffnag from my blog cause:
1) I don't need to increase my traffic and destroy the purpose I blog.
2) I doubt I can earn money from nuffnag for poor traffic
3) Screw nuffnag.
Happy Holidays.

And here he goes complaining again....
First of all, he says that he isn't satisfied that he doesn't get as much league appearances as Dimitar Berbatov and Wayne Rooney, who as also fellow strikers. First of all, Tevez isn't as good as those two as he "thinks" he is. Besides that, can't he just learn the art of being a "super-sub" just like Solksjaer during the 90's and early 2000's? Solksjaer, for your information is the one who clinched the UEFA champions league for the Red Devils, and thus the season that is Treble 99.
If only Carlos Tevez had taken the initiatif to take up that role and possibly be the centre stage of the matches he will be playing. And then, he decided to snub a deal from Manchester United and went to Manchester City, the derby rivals. It's like rejecting a Mercedes for a Kancil.
Which brings me to my next point. Aepparently Carlos Tevez snubbed a move to Liverpool and choose City because of "Emotional Reasons", stating that it would do less damage to the fans of Man. United. Okay Tevez, how is switching to a club whose rivalry streches way longer than that of Liverppol or possibly his score sheet, justified? It doesn't make sense.The problem with Manchester City is their record of winning titles(or rather the lack of it).If he says switching to Manchester City raises a higher chance of European glory, he clearly dismiss the fact that the last time they won an European cup was 39 years ago. And the last domestic glory? 6 years later.
On the contrary, Liverpool have won the Champions Leagues in 2005 and they won the FA cup the following year. I'm not suggesting that I like Liverpool, but if I have a choice, I'll know who I'll choose.
Despite that, Tevez is still adamant on moving to City. And almost everyone(except himself) knows that the sole reason he moved to Manchester City is because of the high wage he will receive while donning the light blue shirt on the field, not to mention the newly purchased Barry,Robinho and Adebayor who too, came because their eyeballs are shinning british currency all over them.
I can go on and on about Tevez's rants on Fergie, but I believe he is beginning to realize that he went overboard. See, if he stopped complaining to the press about his disastrous relationship with Fergie, he could probably pulled off the greatest hoax and gain sympathy from the Red Devils fan. See, the fans have very high regard of him and pressured Alex Ferguson to sign him on a permanent deal. If Tevez just stop the noise and proceeded to sign for Manchester City, Fergie will get the very "hairdryer treatment" he is infamous for from the fans.
But Tevez went overboard and ironically, the fans who adored Tevez so dearly is beggining to hate him for criticizing Ferguson. And we all know who is the victor at the end of the day. Just look at Beckham or Van Nistelrooy.
(Believe me, he has worser moments than that)
And now we have Tevez claiming that Ferguson is scared of the new Manchester City squad ahead of their derby match which will surely excite both sides of Manchester. If that's not enough, he continues by saying that Mark "Sparky" Hughes, the manager of City is a better manager cause "he has been a football player so there is a big difference in the way he treats each player."
Now I'll probably show the middle finger to Tevez for this one. Ferguson was a striker in Aberdeen during the 60's (i think) and mind you, he scores goals. Lots of them. Probably more than Tevez could in 10 cycles of his lifetime. And please, guess where did Mark Hughes rise to fame? Manchester United. Who was the gaffer? Ferguson.
So, at the end of the day. Tevez is screwed. He talks to much, is as dangerous in front of goal as my old teddy bears and worse of all, he doesn't know it. I'll hope he spends time getting used to the bench, cause he'll have a hard time getting a place on the starting XI with 9 strikers in Manchester City. I'm not kidding.
(Better be used to this scene from now on)

Girls Generation - Gee
My favourites are:
The one with the green jacket and aviation forage cap (1.22), the one with the sun glasses on her head with pink feathers all around. (2.01-2.10) . The girl in 2.18 (in my opinion) has better vocals compared to the others. The one singing in (2.42) and (2.53) isn't quite bad too.
At least I now know that WL "kua cha bo" ( Attraced to girls). Progress is the word. XD

A New World Survey
NEW WORLD SURVEY
Last month a world-wide Phone survey was conducted by the UN. The only question asked was:-
"Would you please give your honest opinion about solutions to the food shortage in the rest of the world?"
The survey was a huge failure because of the following:
In Eastern Europe they didn't know what "honest" meant.
In Western Europe they didn't know what "shortage" meant.
In Africa they didn't know what "food" meant.
In China they didn't know what "opinion" meant.
In the Middle East they didn't know what "solution" meant.
In South America they didn't know what "please" meant.
In the US they didn't know what "the rest of the world" meant.
And Finally...........................
In Australia they hung up because they couldn't understand the Indian accent.
I like the punchline. I never know that the UN's voice is someone born in the streets of Madras....or Kampung Buah Pala.
I think if Malaysians were to fit in the survey. I think we won't understand what "give" means.The irony of this is so depressing cause Malaysians are thought to be very generous, and yet we crowd around an accident scene cause we like to "jaga tepi kain orang" without any regards of the road users who maybe have something more urgent errands to take care of rather than some dead man who has a " Lisen Kopi".

2 cents of my thoughts
Aaron : Yeah?
Jennie : Do you have Dixon's Handphone number? Can you give u me please?
Aaron : XXX-XXXXXXX (don't bother trying, it's not a pornography hotline)
Jennie : Thx.
Aaron : So how are you?
Jennie : I'm fine. Gtg. Bye.
Aaron : ...
*Actual name not revealed to avoid backstabbing
I have a scout senior who tells me of such people. In his case, he said some people will suddenly ask you for transport back home out of nowhere. And the thing is, these people never even bother knowing you, let alone talk to you.
See, this are what I call people who take advantage of you. When they need something and if all else fails, they will find you. Thickening their face to ask you to help them as if you been their BFF forever. That is why if I have to say out one type of attitude I can never tolerate, it is this.
In another story, I kinda like this girl. But everytime I try to..let's just say, compliment her or what's that word... 'pikat'?? She just shrugs it off. I mean, I don't know whether she likes it, or simply don't bother at all.
My friend(who is a close friend of that girl) says that that's her usual reaction cause she's an introvert. But, despite the fact I can understand the rationality behind her action. I just can't keep it on.I'm the kind of person that expects to see results, and prefably something prominent and not obscure. That's why I doubting myself on holding on until I'm done with my last exam(SPM).
I seriously need help, anyone? I need God help me cause I know, He cares for me and he doesn't want me to see me suffer. If only I can see the answer for myself. Perhaps he may send someone who can give me advice? I'll just have to wait.....and see.

Weird Websites
EMO KIDS: For EMO____(place any object here)
http://www.luv-emo.com/
What is the site dedicated to:
Justifying EMO is a kind of lifestyle that everyone on this world should embrace. It even dedicated webpages to defend kids who are labelled as EMO.(It can be seen in the main page, refer to EMO KIDS)
Seeing the website, it makes me feel sad. How pitiful that those EMO jerks have to set up a website to spread their cultural and protect their long-gone integrity.
It's like a shopping mall. You have the hairstyle,clothes,pictures,makeups and wallpapers, or if you are like those who like literature, there's the poetry, quiz and even jokes. Jokes??? And emo???? How contradicting. It's like putting Anwar & Kit Siang together to have Milo Ais in my school canteen.
Benefits:
STORM FRONT : White Nationalist Community
http://www.stormfront.org/forum/
What is the site dedicated to:
Idolizing Nazi's and screwing Jewish people all the way. I'm not kidding. There's even a thread in the forum that reads : " The White Nationalist Field Manual."
(What the cover would probably be like)
Any Benefits?( No, seriously)
If you plan to rise up against humanity and revive the Nazi propaganda, this would be the ideal site for you. But seriously,there are better things to do like cap Nazi Soldiers heads in "Call of Duty", sewing or even watching paint dry.
By the way, I found out that Adam Sandler is a jew.
( I play with Remote Controllers just for the fun of it, so slap me in the face)
CRACKED!!!! America's only Humour and Video Site Since 1958.
http://www.cracked.com/
What is the site dedicated to:
Giving people with nothing to do on the internet something to read about. (That's me!!!)
I stumbled unto this website while reseaching for my debate competition (which we lost spectacularly) and honestly I enjoy reading their articles. Some of the articles are in fact facts that really shed light on the events of the world. I also admire some of the photoshop-ing skills of some of the readers of the website.
(One of their latest magazine, some say the worst)
Benefits?
I can only think of one. None. It's a retarded website for pete's sake. The articles are really there just to make someone laugh or brighten their day. But you should give it a try and read some of the articles and videos posted, it's worth your bandwidth.
1) Promote EMO culture
2) Patronize Nazism
3) or even making fun of Cracked.
I just hope that my readers will have a fun time browsing through websites that helps make the world a more interesting place to live in. Ironically, I'm starting to get scared of the internet. And for good reasons.

What I want to say.
Overall.we won 4th placing. A bad record when compared to last year when we were champions. All I can take as a consolation is that this year SGGS and CLHS entered and that's why it was tough for us to win. =(
Anyway, I got an idea from my friend that since my blog link is "Irony Coast",why don't I try putting the word "ironicallly" or it's root word "irony" in all my blog posting?
Can it be done?

A Review: Biology Form 5 Textbook
*Taxpayers money
(first image that popped out for "book reviewer" courtesy of Google)
Now the book is essentially a part of a 5-part episode of "Science" series in secondary level. This biology book is actually a spin-off title that started from "Biology Form4" textbook. However, more details of the plot is found in this book that expands the stories found in the previous 4 books.
For example, in the first chapter(Transport), we learn more one of the most important characters throughout the series which is "Red Blood Cell" & "White Blood Cells". In this book, we learn the different names they are referred to and not only that, the sub characters that are part of them(Think Monocyte,Basophil for Red Blood Cell). Not only that, we learned more about another character which has a very 'emo' name that is"Heart" and this book explains more on the chracteristics of the character and clarify that "Heart" is indeed not an 'emo'.
In a gist, the first chapter of this book has done well to explain more on those popular characters found in the previous book. Good start.
Not the 2nd chapter. Apparently the 2nd chapter(Locomotion and Support) is a totally story altogether and is a short story itself.Here, we learn about bones,bones and bones. That's it. It's about as relevant to my aspiration as a box of matches on the moon.And if you are thinking the chapter is all about the television series, it's not.
(Not found in the chapter. Sorry)
(The next proposed Biology syallabus)
We learn another group of characters which are in a organization called "hormones". They are bascially the "Power Rangers" of our body and in this book they are explained thoroughtly and dare I say it, they are cool!
I must say the authors of this book really knows to sell their book.(Although it was given free* by goverment) Not only that expand more on the plot found in "Sciene Form3", but they dedicated an arc,which consist of 3 chapters!!!
I'll sum up the 3 chapters dedicated to sex. In chapter 4, we learn a little bit* more on how menstrual cycle works, how the two lovely character called "sperm" and "ovum" meet and their origins.
*Ten pages
(I'm not saying anything)
*The writer isn't in any circumstances relating himself
"Everyone is Different"
That is how the last chapter (Variation) starts itself.Now the "chromosome" has a bigger part in this last chapter of the book. And surprisingly, I feel the way the last chapters sums up the arc of "Reproduction" and not to reveal too many details is really a great techinique of ending the story. The readers are left to wonder how will "choromosome" end up after the book and it's adventures later on in life. Actually, there are canon's of reproduction for plants but hey, learning about our own body is way more interesting.
So, I can say that the last 3 chapters of the book wants to give a clearer picture on the reproduction. From "Penis+Vagina= Babies" into "Male reproductive system+ female reproductive system=the next generation". Wait, isn't it the same? And more complicated??
Because of making this the whole process more complicated, I'll have to reconsider giving a good endorsement. Thus, after some considerations, I give "Biology Form 5" a 6 out of 10*.
*Now I just hope my bio teacher doesn't see this.

Friends for Sale Poem. =.='

A man like you seems like a nice person,
but you can never be that handsome.

cause I appreciate them truly.

Scape Goat
So this week we were learning about the goat and sacrifices.Now, as I was doing the questions. One of the question reads:
10."Describe the symbolic ceremony for the removal of the sins that had been atoned by death"
(ref. Leviticus 16:20-28)
Apparently the process is somewhat unique, to say the least. Aaron(the high priest, not the one blogging about this when he's got better things to do) is to bring forth a live goat.But before this, he actually has to find 2 goats in the middle of the dessert. Thankfully he has the whole community of Israelites ready to help him cause they too, committed MANY sins.
I'll bring you back to another part of Levitcus, 16:7-10.
"....Then he is to take the two goats and present them before he Lord at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.He is to cast lots for thre two goats-one lot for the Lord and another for the scapegoat.Aaron shall bring the goat whose lots falls to the Lord and sacrifice it for a sin offering.But the goat chosen by lot as a scapegoat shall be presented alive before the Lord to be used for making atonement by sending it into the desert as a scapegoat."
Some of the things I learn:
1) The method of casting lots for choosing a goat to kill is also used to elect the new disciple to replace Judas.
2)I never know sacrificing goats involves lucky draws, or for this matter, unlucky.
3) Either way, both goats are screwed.
Anyway, back to the topic. In essence, if Aaron the High Priest is to make a sin offering to God, he has to choose 2 goats. One of them gets a quick but brutal death whilst the other has oppurtunity to die with dignity,albeit a slow but painful one.
(I'm sure one of them is still wandering here...)
But there is another scapegoat, this time on a bigger scale-Jesus-. He is hummanity scapegoat don't you think.We can't denied the fact that everyday, more and more people are doing bad things and thus, more sins are committed. Now, we can't atone for our sins anymore with goats because:
1) All goats are imperfect as they may have some defects, externally and/or internally.
2) There is too many people's sins for that poor little goat.
3) If more goats are slaughtered, they will become endangered species and WWF will be making a big news out of farm animals.
(Somewhere in there Jesus is laughing at Death and the Devil)
And all Jesus Christ ask from you and me is that we accpet him to be his Lord and Saviour. No other conditions, just a short prayer to acknowledge him for all the torture and ordeal he had to go through. Isn't that the best deal we can get in our lives?

REVO RECESS
First of all, I'm quite dissapointed that most of the committee were not able to make it. Some of them came to school, some had to do their scout and guide activities, while some went to QB because it was a matter of life and death.
Jokes aside, first of all we prayed and then we plan which row of classes we were going to do some cleaning. One of the REVO members who is the school's cleanliness prefect told us that 4K1 is the dirtiest class, so we decided to clean up all the form 4 classes.
I must say a very big "THANK YOU" to God because alot of people came....until I can't give all of them one REVO badge each.I'm missing one more, so if Pragash is reading this post...PLEASE SPARE ME A FEW MORE BADGES!!!I want to give it as a gift to encourage them to participate in this activity more often.
Nevertheless,credits must given to all the people who helped, even those who are not from SMK Hamid Khan's CF.You all doing something meaningful to the school, and slowly but surely, a change CAN and WILL happen in SMK Hamid Khan!!
God Bless.

Monthly Test (JULY)
But, I still have to take it seriously. Cause, even though it's just a midget compared to SPM, it still matter. Cause it will be in my report slip and most importantly, I'll get heavy bombardment from my parents if I don't do well.
Frankly I think it's pointless.Look, there's 118 more days till SPM and yet we are stuck with a test which WILL definitely not be looked-in when applying for college. They'll look at your "more-important-but-not-as-compared-to-SPM" trials in enrolling you in their college and thus, paying them your leg & hands for your tuition fees.
But, if God can still pay attention to a "petty" like me, shouldn't I be treating my test as the same too?I mean, I'll just one in a BILLION on earth, and yet he gave his only son Jesus to die for me cause I meant the whole world to him.In fact, I am ashamed for not only me, but for mankind. He gave it all(literally) for us to be in heaven and yet many people still reject him, some go as far as saying that the cruxification never happened. Sad.
So, I'll do my part and give my best to my test.Although it won't matter much, at least I "run the race" for him and see what there is in store for me.

Sentimentality
But as times goes by, I too grew up and I begin to laugh at the comic strips again; this time it isn't the drawings or caricature but the puns Bill Waterson often put in his strips.
I must have respect for Calvin cause he still keeps Hobbes around even though he has grown up to be an adult.And as you can see in the picture, Calvin lets his unnamed daughther to play with Hobbes and the daughter looks alot like Susie Derkins, Calvin's chilhood crush and I think we'll can safely say who's the mother...
Talking about the picture and the one-liner it comes with. Although not quite the "quote of the century", but you have to admit it makes sense(in a peculiar way).
When we were kids, we play with many toys and take it with us no matter where we go. I used to bring my toy cars, Thomas the tank engine or even my bears along when we travel somewhere else.It's basically our "ipod or Handphone" when we were young.
However, as we grow up and the hormones start kicking in. We longer play with those stuff, branding them as "childish" or something like that, but we do not know how much those things are valueble when we realized, they are gone.
I still have my childhood toys, but I donated some insignificant ones to Salvation Army. Only left are my bears, Hotwheels cars and Thomas the engine. Speaking about Thomas the tank engine, when I was in Changi Airport in Singapore, I found out that they are still selling it.....but those replica's are now made in metal! My collection was the original one's which were made out of wood. Now I know why my parents insist that I keep it even though I do not play with it.
Even my pyramix cube,which is a Rubik's cube but in a form of a triangle. I got it from A&W way,way back when I was still learning my A-B-C. Now, it's longer available and most importantly, I'm the only one in my school who has one. :D
So, go treasure-hunting,get back your old toys,clean it and keep it for your chilldren to play stuff you played as a kid.I'm sure it will be fullfilling experience(although I'm not married,let alone have a kid yet).
