This is the world he painted
This is the world he saw
He wept in pure sorrow
For nothing could be done at all
Someday, one day, he hope that the rest
Would seek the truth and pull through the test
The destiny and fate of Man lies in their hands
For he who paints the world sees the world
In sorrow, yet ever joyful...

Oh wow, finally, the moment I've been waiting for... now now now... let me say this out loud... hmm... OMG OMG OMG!!! the tests are OVER!!! okay, wow, I somehow survived this term... though I thought I will not make it but i guess I did it... but the eoys are here in 6 weeks time and that really worries me... ahh.... what am I gonna do? ah heck nvm.. shall relax abit first before beginning my revision for the eoys. I can do it, oh yes I can and I shall be optimistic. Next week sabbat, in some weird video production course that my chi teacher forced me to join since I'm going to China at the end of the year, implying that I'll have to do a video of of immersion programme for our sch. Sheesh, I don't like the idea of this... where's the logic of sabbats if our teachers force us to go for a particular course we are not truly interested in. Ah well, what can I really do? Might as well learn something from the course. Bah, actually wanted to join MUN sabbat but am now stuck in video production. Well at least on the bright side I get to learn something about video production and what we really film affects the perception of others on the particular subject matter we are filming on. Thus, i think objectivity is the key to provide a wholistic and informative account on the subject matter and facts must not be distorted in anyway for with modern techonology, we are able to maipulation data we record like for example, cutting, pasting, as well as merging video images and linking two separate subject matters together and all these video techniques can influence a person's view on the issue at hand.
lol, had 2-star kayaking today, very tiring. and the strange thing is we had a repeat of last year's incident of kayaking in the choppy sea. it was so cool, kayaking in the high seas and furthermore in the storm. I rmbed last year I had the time of my life kayaking in the storm... and it was utter crazy, and I thought I was going to drown in the sea and fie a horrible death >< and strangely today we kayaked in the storm too. so cool can... gliding the kayak above the water. And I learnt something today: speed is nth without control. C;mon, we are like using cyclones and trms which are super unstable. Like for example the cyclones that we use, they literary are cyclones: spinning 360 degrees with a slight nudge of the paddle... and when I say they spin, they really spin like crazy and totally out of control. Thus, sure you can go fast with a cyclone in the sea with ferocious paddling but it wouldn't do without proper control of the kayak with the right strokes applied for the right situation as your navigation will be off. so fun, bobbing up and down in the choppy waters but this time, I wasn't afraid to die, hehe... and I drank like a litre of saltwater today? It taste horribly horrid. Eskimo bow rescue, high support, low support recovery, bow rudder, low-brace turn: trust me, these skills are useful, cause they prevent yr kayakfrom capsizing. And staying underwater in capsized position is so fun, hugging the hull and tapping it 3 times. And the eskimo bow that the instructor did was awesome: imagine from upright position, turning 180 degrees with the kayak into a capsized position and just when you thought he needs to be rescued, he flips back up again 180 degrees to where he was previously. In other words, he went 360 degrees in clockwise direction from surface level to underwater and backup again. we were like 0.O !? Amazing hip power and momentum. haha that means I need to do more "hip hop" to train my hips, boy my hips really dun lie, ahahaha ( self-tickling) -.- eek, can't get my cert... missed the first lesson, so must go for some make-up session -.- heyhey but I survived the expedition okay, so i can be considered a 2-star kayaker okay...
ah well, I may, and I emphasize the word "may", get 1.8 for msg this term, which I dun think i will. I think I'll get like 2.1 or 2.2.... I dunno... shall prepare for the worse though, haha...
eoys are coming, so jia you everyone, we can do it! oh yes we can
