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, I've managed to complete my humanities research paper and the portfolio. OH YEAHHHHHH..... (*the banana emoticon where a dancing banana goes chilli, pepper blah blah - how I wish we can insert emoticons in our posts >< Blogger are you reading this? Increase in interactivity will certainly be a niche in yr blogging concept appeal, seriously. Blogging needs some revolutionary change/overhaul) Anyways, my research paper's like 40 pages long including the appendix? And it's 7851 words to be exact... -.- definitely way over the word limit of 5000, but wth... I dun care abt marks deduction because of going over the word limit; it's my paper, I did it my way and since it's long overdue, I dun care abt the word count... just want to get it over and done with and concentrate on other stuff....
However, just when I thought I can relax, I realised that they are many more stuff to do... and pw's finals is coming >,< think my team's going to die anyways... so hopeless. More hw and assignments, wow... the never-ending cycle of work to be completed. Well at least I got over my darkest period... (emo emo emo and that breakdown) Can't believe I actually cried... and I was gload that I picked myself up and get going again... there is hope after all as I think my efforts are starting to pay off... or at least I want to believe... I guess I think too much after all...
Left with 4 tests: core, elective, math and physics. And how time flies... the term's going to end real soon... jiayou everyone out there!... we'll emerge victorious from this uber long battle...
And next week's national day week, which means my ndp trainings gonna be over... yayness... but pretty sad to leave from the contingent after being together and training together for abt 2 mths... 9th Aug will be the day... that this fellowship will end... and all that's left will be just memories and fragments of the past... of NDP 2006 NPCC contingent... Somehow fireworks will light up the nightsky the brightest on that day, for all of us... and it's not the end, but the celebrations of a new beginning, a new experience... lol, thinking abt our "xi shua shua" cheer really makes me laugh...lolz I'm going high again. yesterday was the last time we really trained together before the actual day, and even though I missed the first session of my kayaking 2-star, I think I did not regret going for training, even though the ironic part is i dun have a choice (the maumu factor ><)
happy to meet, sad to part, NDP '06 will forever be in my heart... oh my gosh going emo emo emo...
And national week means more time to mug math and ih... gogogo... woohoo gonna be part of the flag party for sch ndp... meaning no heavy drills, Oh yeah.... (dancing banana again)... sheesh how come I'm so high today? *shrugs... anyone goin for our national day carnival on 8th?
I've to realised some self-entertaining techniques that I usually use when I'm bored:
1) stare into blank space and start thinking what to eat for the next meal ( a great example of living to eat)
2) doing the "gunman chasing bunny" handsigns... to and fro. I know it's lame, but nobody dies in this "game" as it carries on and on... improves fingers flexibility XD
3) count sheep. yep, way to go, plus it's proven to induce sleep ^^
4) playing scissors paper and stone with hands against each other. you will always know which side is the winner...
5) start shaking head and moving upper body up and down, seated, like I'm on ecstasy... aha... self-hyping... my fav... some music might help too XP
6) making random techno beats, or some other weird never-heard-before sounds. hey this improves creativity
that's all I think, and of course other lame stuff such as typing this out...
Note: People might think you're crazy and diagnose with some mental illnes... but then again, it's for self-entertainment purposes. who can blame you since life is that boring such that you have to resort to such methods to keep occupied?
Oh yesh, and another lame thing cross my mind: 4 million frowns exercise by some guy that intent to poke fun at the government's campaign... ironically, it's bringing smiles to people's faces... so indirectly, the government's method is working, in the most unlikely and unthinkable way.... lolz... hahaplox...
Thought of a "theory" when I was on my way home yesterday, that all humans are idea-generators and ideas and thoughts are random particles floating around in the air... waiting for us to absorb them at the right place and at the right time... that is determined by the person's senses and we go "Eureka!". A person's creativity is determined on his/her brain and how effective is the person able to exercise and churn out ideas based on what he/she sees... and the ability to absorb these random particles in the air... that's why some are more creative than others based on a certain set of criteria which has yet to be determined by psychologists. Nonetheless, every single one of us is creative; it's just how more creative are you as compared to others. And these thoughts/ideas are like knowledge to you from your senses i.e. basically what you see, hear and feel etc. With the mind and te heart as one, it becomes information that is vital and that you will be able clearer with such knowledge. We all know knowledge can never be taken away from a person as it is something intangible, but in the new century, we see an upsurge of products of knowledge, like business concepts etc, practically anything. The simplest block of anything of Man's creation is actually knowledge itself... random knowledge being piece together as a whole to form an "idea/concept", where "ideas/concepts" form products, otherwise know as intellectual property, like my research paper where there is consolidation of ideas and it goes through this entire process. In the new century, it is possible to sell the products of knowledge, may it be the simpler of ideas and concepts, or as a product, a collective whole in itself. People are more willing to buy the simpler forms of the products of knowledge like ideas and concepts rather than the products of the concepts... for there is more flexibility and more room for mix n match to create something else using a person's creativity and judging by his level of creativeness. The entire notion is like glucose --> sucrose --> starch/cellulose , where knowledge is a monsaccharide, ideas/concepts are disaccharides, and the products of ideas and concepts (Man's inventions and creation) as a polysaccharide. With the advancement of technology and communications, people are more able to share ideas and concepts, as well as knowledge through teaching and education. We see more and more of protection of intellectual property rights because in this era, we see Man putting a price tag on knowledge and it is something measurable as well as of value where it can translate into something profitable. That is why most countries of the world are moving towards more knowledge-based economies... for now in the world, knowledge is money... $$$
*yawnz... tired le... shall continue the second part of this small theory some other time, on how knowledge, ideas is related to trends, as well as acceptors and donators...
tata.... off to lala land....

I'm still waiting... for you...
