Jogathon 07

My school had organized a Jogathon the other day, like previous years as usual. Eventually I cannot believe I’m actually quite anxious about it. Unpredictable, I mean it’s considered particularly weird for a person like me whom active cells hardly even exist in my body to have a sudden thought about JOGATHON more to “walkathon”, because never in my life it existed in my Oxford. Yes, it is obviously my first time in four years of secondary school to join such sporty activity like this.

Anyway, I didn’t join it because I’m in the vein of joining (it’s optional to every single student), but more like an obligation for our class. In other words, I’ve been forced to join it a.k.a COMPULSORY for me!!! The distance is approximately 4 km from our school, into the jungle, muddy tracks and slippery road…Imagine how much stamina and oxygen is needed for the production of oxygenated blood cells to circle throughout the body, not forgetting strainless muscle tissues!!!! 4 KM is certainly NOT a short displacement you know.

Unbelievable, I managed to finish it and I’m rather pleased that I didn’t get last position HAH!!! As a conclusion I realized that I “DO” have a diminutive portion of active cells in my body although sports like this is not my forte.

Of course I didn’t just jog or walk along the whole day, PICTURES

National Chemistry Quiz

The National Level Chemistry Quiz was held on 19 July 2007which was yesterday. The quiz runs at several schools here and it is supervised by school-staff and coordinated by a school Quiz coordinator who would be nominated by the school. But unfortunately my school was not selected to participate in this activity *sigh*. However, I did manage to take the quiz in SMK Penrissen No. 1 and yes…

I skip a day of class which I’m quite reluctant to because exam papers were given back on that day!!! The chemistry quiz required a total time slot of 60-70 minutes and the questions are tremendously Difficult I say. I do not consider those questions as a form 4 level standard, but they’re more to general chemistry questions…and LOTS of calculations *sigh again*


Here’s an example:

Below shows a reaction of ethanol with element X to produce a substance Y,

Ethanol + X → Y

Name X and Y.
A. Ethanoic acid CH3COCC2H5
B. Ethanoic acid C2H5COOC2H5
C. Propanoic acid C2H5COOC3H2
D. Propanoic acid C3H2COOC2H5

An organic compound X decolourises dilute acidified aqueous potassium manganate (VII) on warming heat but does not decolourises bromine solution.
What is X?
A. C6HOO
B. C3H2OH
C. CH3COOC2H5
D. CH3COOH

These are only a portion of the questions, although I consider myself as average in chemistry but this is beyond from my expectations!! By the way, I didn't even put effort to study my chemistry book before the Quiz.

Forget

If I could forget everything, I can honestly say I would. I can’t imagine how peaceful it would be to be able to pass you on the street and have no idea who you are.

Have You Ever...

Have you ever lived in my life?
Spent one minute in my shoes?
If you haven’t tell me why,
You judge me as you do.

Have you ever woken up in the morning?
Wondering if this was your last day on earth?
Have you ever left your house?
Unsure if you’d return.

Have you ever seen your friend got shot?
Outside his favorite store,
Have you ever seen a friend die?
From drugs he’d never used before.

Have you ever seen your mom get beat up?
By your step dad messed up on booze?
Have you ever had an unwanted disease?
Forcing you to choose.

Have you ever felt so lonely?
Feeling like you’ve been isolated from everyone,
Have you ever been betrayed?
By your best friend you’ve trusted so long.

Have you ever sat beneath the stars?
Hoping God will hear?
Have you ever seen your friends drive away?
After way too many bears.

Have you ever had a friend?
Experiment with weed?
Have you ever covered up guilt,
By doing a good deed?

Have you ever considered suicide?
As the only way,
Have you ever tried to hide yourself?
Behind the things you say.

Have you ever wanted to protect?
Your friends and everyone in sight,
Have you ever felt suck pain?
That you cried yourself to sleep at night.

Have you ever lived in my life?
Spent one minute in my soul?
Notice what I feel back there
And tell me what it’s like…
