1. Refuse to take action on nagging problems. Procrastinate, brood, and if possible, lose some sleep over them.
2. Make a concerted effort to take note of irritations in your life and blow them out of proportion.
3. Consider the power of negative thinking.
4. Hide your sense of humor. Erase the words smile, joke, and laugh from your vocabulary; concentrate on frowning.
5. If you've been working a 60 hour week, try 65 or 70 or 75! Spending more time at work will give you less time to consider how stressed you are.
6. Consume vast quantities of caffeine. As a stimulant it will ensure that you are awake day and night.
7. Practice the art of "hurry up and wait". This means dashing off to join a line-up somewhere - like the bank, cinema, or ticket outlet.
8. Make sure you drive no further than two feet from the car in front.
9. To relieve boredom while waiting for traffic lights, pretend you are on the starting grid for the Indy 500.
10. Never read a book or listen to music.
11. Play "Hide and Seek" by concealing important documents from yourself.
12. Delegate nagging problems. You've proved that you can't deal with them.
13. Tell yourself that your abilities are unlimited. Do not waver from this conviction until you are fired for lack of competence.
14. Giggle nervously. It will make other people nervous, meetings will be unproductive and you won't come away with a long list of things to do.
15. Find a disagreeable tennis partner. Perhaps your spouse.
16. When feeling stressful, breathe deeply and hyperventilate until you pass out.
17. Take up gardening. Nothing can be more stressful if you don't like it.
18. When things are going badly, knock your head against the wall. The resulting headache will supersede the original problem.

Image based post! like since forever
This is like everything the guy wrote for his math CA. J2 somemore, aiyo. Lol.
Econs grades of 1T36 for our midyears! Note the large number of Us and Ss. I got pushed to an E ok. :D
Obviously some tenants at Orchard Central are very into french, or Japanese, hur hur.
Finally, the picture to rule them all, _____'S TANLINE. LOL. The result of kayaking 9 hours whilst having your hands and thighs taped to prevent abrasions and blisters.
Wow, UN convention in Denmark, and the only thing that separates me from it is a 1000 word essay >_> I'm never good with competition submissions I tell you.
On a happier note, I'm officially one of the 2 bridge trainers for 2009-2010 together with SS Wong. HAHA. I need to brush up or I'll really look stupid. Oh well, at least I made it into exco.
School is going to slay all the J1s. There are still major topics to clear before the year end, with no bloody study break before promos. Oh wow. And then there's PW. SEIYEAH!
God bless us all.

1T36 is sick! You can just hear the coughs and sneezing, whoooweeee. 4 people were absent today, lolo.
Maths is mad, 3rd week into school and we've cleared 45 pages of lectures notes, now left with Maclaurin series, small angle approximation and integration for the rest of the year, which is like, 11 weeks.
11 weeks only.
Wow, damn fast la, can't imagine all the shit I was complaining about CJC was almost 5 months ago. More than 150 full days. And then there's 139 days before the standard chartered marathon(i think). Lan jiao ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
He taught us only to love, so why do I hate?

I feel like doing some imba review post about certain people that will really prove my point for the past 1 year. But I'm feeling really lazy right now, like, Haruka-lazy.
Chinese Oral was over today, thank God for that. Like, at least it was a lot better than the awkward silence during sec 3 >: I think it helped that the 2 good ones were after me instead of before.
77 days to promos, can you believe it, just 11 weeks. I remember a moment where I recalled it would be 12 weeks to O levels. It felt so short, at the same time, it wasn't really that short... Uh, Iono anymore.
NPNT here - But at least now I know a few safe birthday gifts for girls, lol.
anyway, here are some lesser known facts about my name, just brilliant really
Dolphins sleep at night just below the surface of Klinsen, and frequently rise to the surface for air!
A thimbleful of Klinsen would weigh over 100 million tons.
Klinsen cannot burp - there is no gravity to separate liquid from gas in his stomach!
Klinsen is the only bird that can swim but not fly!
Baby swans are called Klinsen!
Olive oil was used for washing Klinsen in the ancient Mediterranean world.
Klinsen is black with white stripes, not white with black stripes!
The ace of spades in a playing card deck symbolizes Klinsen.(see la, bridge is my destiny)
The patron saint of Klinsen is Saint Eugenie!
Only one child in twenty will be born on the day predicted by Klinsen.
God bless me the next 3 months, project work + promo preparation + HOARGH. Get me off facebook and hardwarezone plz

Searching through my pictures and I found the menos dood. Kewl.
my classmates are damn good at entertaining themselves la.
Yesterday during break, I came back and saw like half the class seated around the middle of our classroom. Then we turned around and started predicting whether people would cut across the quadrangle during their PE jog, and then we went nuts.
After that it became an argument on whether a girl from T35 was attracted to a guy sitting with her on the bench. tsk tsk
Pw Group CJC 173 is so precious really.
Grace - today she went totally bonkers after school ended, did some clickclickclick yapkohkhee clickclick spoof of melvin wah. omg, totally hilarious, i kid chiu nort.
Got back my midyears, CCCCES. I'm quite satisfied, although all my Cs could have easily become Bs had I been a tad more careful :( Jacinda's average is about the same as mine, albeit 0.166666666666666666666 marks higher.
2 contrasting songs for the soul.
Kind of worried for my 3 retainee classmates, especially since they failed a 1 or 2 subjects each, I don't know what's gonna happen to them now :(
School's begun, and I've already fallen behind in tutorials - just like in term 1. What a pain.
At any rate right now, Catholic Junior College officially suspended all CCAs until further notice as of 10.07.09. That means sending a good 30% of 1800 people to orchard road on a friday afternoon. And of course, ODAC is not included.
Classmate Donna-san is sick! And was in contact with the Matthias guy, who's been hospitalised. Poor things, hope they recover and get well soon. At the very least, they might be immune to h1 strains from now on.
I think this actress (平 愛梨,- Taira Airi) is kinda cute in her character. She has like the look of yui and huang biren combined -> lol random plz
I must really salute Tsutsumi Yukihiko(director of ashita no kioku) for finding actors and actresses who match their manga counterparts in looks completely. Besides Kanna, other 20th century boys characters who look very similar to their actors are Haruo Nami, Maruo, Sadakiyo, and the list goes on, really. The movie trilogy is so wonderful and enthralling that anyone can get hooked just by starting with the first.
You would be completing a legendary manga series of the 21st century(ironically).

Gotta make a change For once in my life It's gonna feel real good Gonna make a difference Gonna make it right
I've been having odd dreams about a very far fetched scenario that will happen on the day that I wake up itself. First it was the barbecue at Mandarin Gardens, then it was today's Gym session.
Was quite slack generally. Yiliang ran like 3km and zao, while nicky waste timo LOL Bathed and then watched Michael Jackson Live in Bucharest. Awesome stuff. Before L4D!!!!!!!!!!
Totally retarded. Kept spamming cheats at the end cause we couldn't win the finale. Then when the helicopter came, they all got caught in the zombie wave despite my pipe bomb. Then only me and yishuo escaped lOLOLOLOL.
Ate at "The Food Court" and didn't finish my food even though I was damn hungry cause there was waaaaay too much rice. Saw a certain Primary School DM *jiaoplz*
Techies = Funniest dota hero ever.
As I turned up the collar on A favorite winter coat This wind is blowin' my mind I see the kids in the street With not enough to eat Who am I to be blind Pretending not to see their needs
A summer's disregard A broken bottle top And a one man's soul They follow each other On the wind ya' know 'Cause they got nowhere to go That's why I want you to know
It's the second last day of the long weekend.
After tomorrow, begins a new term with new syllabus, more ccas, the start of pw rush and preparation for promos. Maaaan, what a drag.
I'm starting with the man in the mirror I'm asking him to change his ways And no message could have been any clearer If you wanna make the world a better place Take a look at yourself and then make a change.
I've been a victim of A selfish kinda love It's time that I realize There are some with no home Not a nickel to loan Could it be really pretending that they're not alone
A willow deeply scarred Somebody's broken heart And a washed out dream They follow the pattern of the wind ya' see 'Cause they got no place to be That's why I'm starting with me
Got to stop wasting time on like, computer. lol. The Daily Show/Colbert Report, Explosm, Facebook, Hardwarezone, Ultimate Guitar, NgeeKhiong, Youtube, 4shared, megaupload :(
I'm starting with the man in the mirror I'm asking him to change his ways And no message could have been any clearer If you wanna make the world a better place Take a look at yourself and then make a change
I'm starting with the man in the mirror I'm asking him to change his ways, yeah No message could have been any clearer If you wanna make the world a better place Take a look at yourself and then make the change You gotta get it right, while you got the time
I don't want my entire past to die, do I?
'Cause when you close your heart Then you close your mind

I aer happy lolcat desu. After 4 hours of sitting down doing a subject that has been tormenting me and refusing to let me go even after tanking its higher level in secondary school. Technically speaking I'm like top 20% of the cohort in chinese >( And I'm undermined by taking h1, but oh well, people who don't have A1 in HC also take h1 :(
stewpig la, their chinese already good enough, then make the bell curve harder for me nia.
Anyway, that concluded J1 Midyears, WHOOOOOO, 75% OF JC LIFE TO GO.
205 outing, I pwnt in organising :D once again, さすが俺様だ!The last time was like... phototaking?
Went to holland V after 205 shattered into 3 groups in ranking of impatience. lol. Ate at a hawker centre(not nasi lemak horr, mediacorp fanboys)
Then it was like, nua session. All we can do is just nua. Followed the "402 route" to the hard rock ice cream thing, and we just like mobbed the place. Haagen dasz ish sad :(
Then we continued up the route and we stood around 10 minutes like 402 on rockafella night, HAH. Then we ended up walking all the way back. I missed my 75, took the long way back using 184 at clementi.
