school's a-starting!

two nights and a day to go before school restarts! :)

admit it. you miss it tons. forget the homework, that's not at all something you guys will remember once you leave. glad to see so many of you have blogs, because quite frankly, sec3 and 4 stick in your memory much more than lower sec does, which is a pity. in which case, you can always refer back to your blogs, jog your memory and all:)

very sad though. somehow my 1k peeps never seem to visit. and very few other 1c ones do. still.

1K whoever has to send me pictures send them! you can upload them and email to meghna1004@hotmail.com or send it to my hp number. WHICH i have given you:)

1C i'm in the process of getting the pics i took with you from ms ng (not eng!) so patience:)


terrible too. i still don't have a journal i update the way i wanted to. so much for practising what i preach. STILL i am (was) the teacher so you all shall listen to me! ;)

will be in camp the whole next week. i almost don't want to go anymore, but that's my amazing laziness talking. somehow, i suspect sloth would be the deadly sin most applicable to me. of course, i'm not too familiar with the other six either so i can't be too sure;)

BTW apparently a sloth is an animal who moves so slowly sometimes algae grows on it. hard to believe, but anything's possible:)


for those of you who still visit, and actually do this,
five vocab words:

1) verify
2) emulate
3) abominate
4) nimbus (yes you HP fans there is such a word)
5) providence


once again, be nice to your new English teacher, and don't bully him/her. nope i have no clue who it is but i'm pretty sure you'll have a good English semester. Don't forget this old dino though, at least not till we're old and greying and aged, with possible amnesia;)

hello kids!

sorry it's been such a long time, but it's been blissful just sitting on the couch watching tv:) of course. i hope YOU guys aren't doing that. haha:)

so how's the news of the homework front? well. i believe those of you who say you are allergic to it. i have quite the similar affliction. too bad though, you still have to go do it. please. don't come up with stupid, silly, ridiculous and obviously unworkable (i think i made up the word) excuses.

you have roughly more than a week to go.



go dictionary.com! :)

random 5 vocab words:
-sustain
-accost
-ephemeral (i love this word)
-castigate
-parsimonious

slackeroo

Hello once again! :)

has everyone just left out the idols post? tsk tsk.

ANWS jasmine's performing on wednesday. so you start voting then all through to thursday. :)

those of you who have adopted my lifestyle, WHACK yourself really hard and get do making something really useful of your time. my lifestyle, btw, entails television, the computer and sleeping. while i noe and understand fully how wonderful such a life is, i must preach, and hopefully soon enough, practice too, that you are to spend your time more wisely. do something productive. spend your energies wisely. time and tide waits for no man. etc.


well that hasn't motivated me to stop using the computer and spending my time well. hope it works for you! :)

Idols.

While we're on the topic of idols. Who's yours?

Honestly, you are perfectly entitled to having as many as you want. just please, make sure it's someone exerting POSITIVE influence.

Me. I have tons of ppl i admire. i wouldn't quite say they're my idols, but there are some people you just can't help but admire, for the most mundane to the most obvious reasons.

The dictionary.com definition of idol goes like this:
An image used as an object of worship.
A false god.
One that is adored, often blindly or excessively.
Something visible but without substance

which is why, rather than having idols, have people you admire for the right qualities.
and i don't mean who is the best in Maplestory or the like. duh.
i meant like those who embody your school core values. and other values:)

i admire/love/gush about/value/respect/have high regard for/etc lots of people. down to many of my friends. like for being amazing runners (hey i mean long distance runners who do like 20km a day. any idea how much stamina is reqd for that?). or for being gentlemanly. or for being modest. you get the idea.

friendships often need this. besides the normal, EXPECTED mutual respect you give each other, sometimes a dash more helps a lot. it's not a bad thing at all, finding the extraordinary in the ordinary.

so the next time you're having your normal interactions, do look out for the special qualities in people, and value them for it:)

till the next post,
adieu
