가 복.

I’m now using a Wordpress theme. I’m too lazy to make my own. :) I really like it, though.

I’m currently learning Korean. I love the writing system, what with the little circles and symbols…I mean, in how many languages can you actually draw circles? (I appear to be very misinformed. Don’t bother telling me the answer)

I don’t think I’ve replied any of the comments on the previous, previous post, and I still get comments. You guys must love me. (Someone’s being self-centered again)

The b-ball games were horrible. For me, anyway. I hardly ever attempt shooting, and for good reason. I felt so embarassed when I attempted a shot during practice, and I bet the only thing that occupied peoples’ minds was, “HAHAHAHAHA! AIIIIIRRRBALLLLLLL!”. Yessiree. Why do I bother waking up in the morning?

I have exactly nine days to go before an important examination, and I’ve only studied, oh, I don’t know, a chapter here, a chapter there… When teachers say, “Don’t cry when you get your testpapers back”, they think they were exaggerating. Well, they’re not. I go home and wail over my testpapers while eating large packets of potato chips(while sucking my fingers every now and then) and drinking milk. A rather unusual sight, but it happens.

Err…I’ll be back in a few hours.

[edit] Yes, I’ve been really inactive. I’d like to apologize to my affies. :( School, y’know? Extra classes almost everyday. I’ll work a bit more on my site, and return the comments. [/edit]

I’m on a girls’ basketball team in school. That sucks. And I have two games this week. The team captain kept pressing me to join. :( She had mastered pulling the puppy face at will. I’ll probably get booed. I always play defense, but I can’t throw the ball very far. Conclusion: height isn’t everything in basketball.

I’m scared, because lots of people show up to watch the matches. T.T Compared to the big cheeses who can actually shoot hoops, I’m just a cold booger.

I don’t understand how some people can be so rude. In tuition, we(me and a couple of my classmates) were doing a test. My classmates didn’t bring their erasers. They asked to borrow mine. And I did. At the end of the test, they returned my eraser. One side looked like it was eaten away by something big. I asked them why my eraser looked like that, and they giggled and told me each one of them twisted chunks off the eraser to throw at each other.

It pissed me off for many reasons.
1) We weren’t even close friends. They only come to me when they need something.
2) The eraser was brand new!
3) And they weren’t going to apologize or at least tell me until I asked?
4) Is that what you do to things people lend you?

I don’t know why it got me annoyed. It was like the principle of doing that that did. Ugh.

I came across this brain exercise thingo online. :D Try it out. Don’t peep at the answers until after you’ve thought of it.

Exercise of the brain is as important as exercise of the muscles. As we grow older, it is important that we keep mentally alert. The saying “If you don’t use it, you will lose it” also applies to the brain.

Below is a very private way to gauge your loss or non-loss of intelligence. So take the following test presented here and determine if you are losing it or are still a MENSA candidate. OK, relax, clear your mind and . . . begin.

1. What do you put in a toaster?

-

The answer is bread. If you said, “toast,” then give up now and go do something else. Try not to hurt yourself. If you said, “bread,” go to question 2.

2. Say “silk” five times. Now spell “silk.” What do cows drink?

-

Answer: Cows drink water. If you said, “milk,” please do not attempt the next question. Your brain is obviously overstressed and may even overheat. It may be that you need to content yourself with reading something more appropriate such as “Children’s World.” If you said, “water” then proceed to question three.

3. If a red house is made from red bricks and a blue house is made from blue bricks and a pink house is made from pink bricks and a black house is made from black bricks, what is a greenhouse made from?

-

Answer: Greenhouses are made from glass. If you said “green bricks,” what the heck are you still doing here reading these questions? If you said “glass,” then go on to question four.

4. Twenty years ago, a plane is flying at 20,000 feet over Germany. If you will recall, Germany at the time was politically divided into West Germany and East Germany. Anyway, during the flight, TWO of the engines fail. The pilot, realizing that the last remaining engine is also failing, decides on a crash landing procedure. Unfortunately, the engine fails before he has time and the plane crashes smack in the middle of “no man’s land” between East Germany and West Germany. Where would you bury the survivors - East Germany or West Germany or in “no man’s land”?

-

Answer: You do not, of course, bury survivors. If you said ANYTHING else, you are a real dunce and you must NEVER try to rescue anyone from a plane crash. Your efforts would not be appreciated. If you said, “Don’t bury the survivors” then proceed to the next question.

5. If the hour hand on a clock moves 1/60th of a degree every minute then how many degrees will the hour hand move in one hour?

-

Answer: One degree. If you said “360 degrees” or anything other than “one degree,” you are to be congratulated on getting this far, but you are obviously out of your league. Turn your pencil in and exit the room. Everyone else proceed to the final question.

6. Without using a calculator - You are driving a bus from London to Milford Haven in Wales. In London, 17 people get on the bus. In Reading, six people get off the bus and nine people get on. In Swindon, two people get off and four get on. In Cardiff, 11 people get off and 16 people get on. In Swansea, three people get off and five people get on. In Carmathen, six people get off and three get on. You then arrive at Milford Haven. What was the name of the bus driver?

-

Answer: Oh, for goodness sake! It was YOU, read the first line!!!

I only got four correct. Ah.
