You know Pacific West? That company that sells seafood stuff (and advertises a lot)? Apparently the owner of that company is my father's best friend. (Now I know where to get free and good food)....
Awesome, right?!?! And he has my favourite breed of dog, imported from Australia, costing 5000 bucks each. Border collie, the smartest breed of dog, stays inside his gigantic house and runs up and down happily. And it seems that the Fuzzy's trainer got fed up of training it because it doesn't listen to him. Maybe Fuzzy only prefers to listen to its one and only family. But he was very friendly to my mum and I, allowing us to pet him. He was wary of my father, though, and kept barking at him.
At least Fuzzy isn't some jittery, hyperactive dog (like Silkie) or a Pitbull Terrier. I've found that Pitbull Terriers have been banned from Switzerland (or maybe the whole Europe?), as they're very strongly built and are aggressive. And once they get angry, the only that can stop them is a bullet. Then, they die and you find out that there's no point rearing them (you need to have a license to rear them anyway).
Back to Pacific West....no, we didn't get free food, but we DID get free lunch during some reunion among 5 long lost friends, including my father and the President of PW.
And we went into his house, wholly designed on the basics of Feng Shui. It was really nice and had an antique feel to it (there was a lot of wood). But my favourite part of the house was the dog running around us. *Grins*

It's the new year!!! And I have a lot of things to say....or not. Well, the main thing is that school is getting annoying.
And so is blogging.
(That was anticlimactic, no?)
Fine, so school isn't really getting on my nerves. It's whatever that happens within school, concerning the junky homework plopped onto my desk everyday. And with people like me who are programmed differently, homework ranks very lowly on my list of priorities. And it doesn't help to note that all those on the same frequency as I am are leaving this accursed country and the screwed-up education system. Now I feel like I'm just some sad, lifeless zombie doing schoolwork day in, day out. I can't stand the prospect of looking back at my life 20 years later and saying, "Wow, I sure did a lot of homework last time!"....Of course, people call that nerdjobs, but I call it plain nutjob. Sometimes, I wonder why students don't just go all out in full force and not do homework. Come to think of it, if everyone including the good students don't do homework, it wouldn't actually be considered wrong to not do homework anymore, seeing that teachers trust good students a lot.
I'm talking too much nonsense, so enough of that....Happy Chinese New Year to all those who celebrate it. Mathematics is fun, but when you get tons of the same thing EVERYDAY, the excitement just wears off. So now, Maths is really dull. Batai won the interclass debate.....and there's nothing to blog about. Either that, or I'm simply too lazy to post anything up. Honestly, life isn't boring me yet, but coming up with something to entertain you guys is. So I'm going to stop here. And I expect you to stop here too and ogle my blog template.

I know it's a fortnight late, but nevermind, I'll just summarize some key events that happened since New Year's eve, which I did not even elaborate on.
1 Jan '10, Fri
I finally did something I've always wanted to do : watch fireworks while listening to 1812 Overture. I got sick in the morning with a sore throat and a disobedient nose.
4 Jan, Mon
I've always had the premonition that I might go into 4 Batai, and I did--with all the other English freaks!!! Gheek, Shu Wen, Daniel, Tim, Mel, etc....sigh, all those smart people squeezed into one class. I was elected as class treasurer (and I think people actually regret it). All I do is terrorize the class and steal their money. I got 6 mosquito bites in Lab 2 alone....and I thought Mel was supposed to be the mosquito magnet. Got a random nosebleed without warning in choir later in the afternoon.
5 Jan, Tues
Found out about 4 Batai's special status. Apparently, there's a joke the teachers share among themselves; they call us "non-halal", because there are no Malays in our class at all. Of course, we students have jokes too, our specialty being the class monitor, Zhi Chung. All the teachers who taught our class made the same jokingly sarcastic comment, "Are you sure you chose the correct monitor?". Pn Sharon confessed that she's afraid to ask Zhi Chung to do anything, since he "always looks so sad". The irony was that she told us that after sending him off to get a pile of books for the class.
7 Jan, Thurs
Class collection since 6th Jan : RM1186
See what I meant by "I terrorize the class" now?
8 Jan, Fri
Signed up for all those crappy extra-curricular activities.
9 Jan, Sat
MWGC held their one-year late annual dinner. My father invited Mr Heng to go along.
12 Jan, Tues
Applied to enter prefecthood once more.
13 Jan, Wed
Aunt from Amsterdam came over.
14 Jan, Thurs
Had a very screwed up Nostalgia meeting, which ended with a freaky plot to cut our 2010 year short. Apparently, the Datin is leaving this July and would appreciate the production of the magazine to be done by July. In her masterplan, all the school events would be crammed between now and June; there would be nothing going on after that period, unless the new principal has something funny in mind.
15 Jan, Fri
Introduced the class accounts and money objectives.
Today: Teeth. Braces. Bite. Ouch. (You don't need elucidation on this one).

Hi, people. Here's something easy to warm you up before school starts.
Here goes....
You are given 6 balls and a weighing scale. 2 balls are defective and they weigh less than the other 4. You are only given 2 weighs (you can only use the scale twice). Find out which are the defective balls.
You have 2 defective balls and there is no typo. Yes, this is easy for most of you, but then again, maybe not.
Remember, there are 2 defective balls.
