Ramblings on Exams and the Likes

Finished my physics papers today. You know, it's strange how I've become immune to the immediate after effects of sitting for a paper. I mean, I used to feel either elated that I could answer the paper beautifully or devastated that well, it sucked. Either way, I usually feel relieved that it's over. But not today. Felt indifferent towards the whole situation. Maybe it's because Malaysian students are forced to sit through so many test/exam papers that we (I at least) have gotten really used to it.

Ok, lets see. I did some calculation and concluded that the average Malaysian student with about 10 subjects (10 smelly subjects!!!) sits for about 100 separate papers a year. Topical tests, mid-term, mid-year, second mid-term, end year exams all included. That's like about 400 different papers my whole secondary schooling life. (400 because we have less subjects in the lower form).

Yes, the above paragraph just proved that Malaysia is an exam-based country. (As if you didn't know that already). Malaysia thinks that a student who is able to score 20 1A for SPM or whatever nonsense exam is successful. Ever wondered why you don't hear about these people after their record breaking stint? That's because they don't have the real substance, the real "factor" in being really (really) successful. Bill Gates dropped out of university. Loh Boon Siew never had any formal education. So they were all dumb and useless. Right.

The point is, intelligence should never ever be measured using exams alone. How do you measure intelligence anyway?

People do not need to be a straight A scorer to be successful.

*Dunno why I wrote this post*

Of Lesbianism and Of Hippos

I'm sure you guys know nowadays that more and more people are engaging themselves in homosexuality. If you are all that ignorant of this phenomena, just step into my school and you will realise all that I'm saying is true (duh!). Seriously. People who used to be straight are now of the opposite orientation. And some of them are sometimes inclined to be "slightly" bisexual. Yep. Right, I'm not going to talk about gays because I find them really unnerving. I mean, guys are supposed to be manly and all (ahem ahem*) and they act girlish to the extreme!? Whoa.

Ok. Back to lesbianism. So, why do these people do it? I have a few theories. They're just theories. I wouldn't know for sure what their reasons are until I interview them which I doubt will happen.

Some of them, especially the younger ones are lesbians because they are influenced by their other homosexual peers. I don't know, maybe they want to be a part of this trend for the "fun" of it?

Some of them do it out of curiosity.

Most of the lesbians I know have a troubled home in terms of love. Their parent and older family members expect a lot out of them and hardly give them love. In a way, their family is abusing them emotionally. And that is why their "loving system" (where did I get that from?!) goes haywire.

Some of them are just seeking attention from those around them. Their peers and family members. Maybe they want to be popular or something. Well, they're becoming popular using the wrong means.

Ah, some of them (very few in fact) impose as lesbians and get hooked up with a partner to use the unfortunate partner for some madcap reason. It has happened before, trust me. Reason why this hardly happens: love, to lesbians are really really important and "strong". It's sacred to them and they do not go around playing with people's feelings. I've never heard of lesbian playgirls.

Some of them are just really confused as to why they like this girl or that and decides to go for it.

Some do it out of lust. Gross, i know. Seriously, all the things they do in secret (but it's not a secret now, is it?) are beyond disgusting. I've heard all sorts of horrible stories about french kissing, tongues, making out and huggations but I shall not attempt to retell these stories. Those who are obviously in lust, there's this look in their eyes when they look at their partners. I think i shall call it the horny-look-slash-the-look-of-wrong-forbidden-passion. In schools such as mine, you should really think twice before going to someplace lonely within the school compounds. You sure don't want to stumble upon an unsuspecting couple...

Most of them say that they are born with it. It's impossible, hello??! That would be like a duck saying it was born a chicken. Seriously, God made Adam and Eve; not Adam and Steve.

After all the above, the ultimate conclusion I have is that these people are under the yoke of the devil.

Ok. I know that homosexuality is wrong. I know I am against it. But I do not despise these people to the max. As in, I don't complain to the school authorities, nor do I hate them or anything like that. After all, they are humans. And so am I.


I was going to quote Bible verses (cheh..) to show that this homosexual thing going on existed since then but I am running out of time. I shall update this post maybe, or I'll post another post (hmm..).

Total change of mood and topic:
I bought a green hippo yesterday!















So that my donkey wouldn't be so lonely..
















To see more of them, go look at
Joo Tatt's post about donkey being lonely no more.

Happenings

I think it's about time to update you people on stuff which has happened in the uninteresting life of Stephie James.
Sunday, 28th April 2007
SGGS (very sad) Food Fair. It was horrible and it was raining. There was not enough food!

Monday, 30th April 2007
Drama State Levels Competition. Or is it Drama Competition (State Levels). Anyways, SGGS got third. SXi got second. SXi had really simple, creative and striking (really awesome) props. I'm still in awe. And, SMK Teluk Kumbar got first! It was a smelly comedy when SXi's touched on our 50th year of Independance and ours touched about love and humans becoming more inhumane. And their diction was horrible. I could go on and on but I shall stop here. Needless to say, everyone was shocked when they announced the winner. Oh well, it's a part of history now...

Tuesday and Wednesday was a holiday and slightly boring.

Hmm.. I have a song stuck in my head now. It's a really nice acousticky song.

Waiting in Vain by MYMP
From the very first time I rest my eyes on you boy
My heart said follow through
But I know now that I'm way down on your line
But the waiting feeling's fine
So don't treat me like a puppet on a string
Cause I know how to do my thing

Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb
I wanna know when you're gonna come

I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love

Summer is here, I'm still waiting there
Winter is here and I'm still waiting there

Like I said
It's been three years since I've been knocking at your door
And I still can knock some more
Ooh boy, ooh boy
Is it crazy love?
for i do knock some more
You see in life I know
There's lots of grief
But your love is my relief, yeah

Tears in my eyes burn
Tears in my eyes burn

While I'm waiting, while I'm waiting for my turn, oh
I don't want to wait in vain for your love
I don't want to wait in vain for your love
I don't want to wait in vain for your love
I don't want to wait in vain for your love

You know I
You know I
I don't wanna wait in vain
No no no I you know I
I don't wanna wait in vain

It's your love that I'm waiting oh
It's my love that your running from
It's your love that I'm waiting oh
It's my love that your running from

I don't want to wait in vain for your love
I don't want to wait in vain for your love
I don't want to wait in vain for your love
I don't want to wait in vain for your love

I don' think I relate to this song much. Frankly speaking, I am sick of all things lovey-dovey.
I can't get this song out of my head. And I don't think I want to. Hmm... I'm confusing myself.
