I am not hungry at all WHY.
See, this (quite fallaciously) proves my hypothesis that the more I exercise, the less hungry I get. No, really. I got up early (i.e. 8.30 am) to swim (O:) today - the water was gorgeous, really, cool and clear, and when the sun came out it was like I WAS OFF SOME ISLAND IN THE CARRIBEAN BECAUSE THE POOL WAS ~GLITTERING - without having breakfast because I didn't like the bread my grandmother bought, and then I had to rush off to meet Tian/Rui Fen so I didn't really eat anything. After that, I had a blueberry muffin at Starbucks, and four drumlets at Popeyes and some fries&coke, and then I had a venti mocha frappe at Starbucks, and that's all. I am Still Not Hungry - which is why I'm here posting instead of say, eating my dinner.
(It's not that I don't want to eat, okay! I want to want to eat - but I don't :P)
I met a nice bus driver today. I was taking 27 home from the airport, and I got off to switch to 89, which stops right in front of my house but then 89e came along, so I thought, hey why not, but IT APPARENTLY GOES PAST MY HOUSE. The bus driver stopped, though, after I pressed the bell (still oblivious), and he asked me if I wanted to alight there, because the bus actually only goes to the stop ahead! And I was like O: O: but he was already stopping for me so I was incredibly grateful :D
My randomness book is really illuminating and interesting in the way probabilities never was when the school taught it, and all the things like Brownian motion and statistics and bell curves and standard deviation are actually so relevant to our daily life, and they really have a lot of significance for the average person on the street - but because of the way our school's curricula is structured, we don't think so. We think all these concepts are academic and useless and irrelevant but nobody even knows how it took decades and centuries of collective musings and investigation before such theories are figured out, and how they're based on personal and very equivocal, random events,and there's so much history behind them, but it's all distilled, diluted into a five-page handout that we use as rough paper! I am so angry, seriously, because school is supposed to inspire our learning, not stifle it, and - seriously. If I don't read - and I barely even read enough as it is - I WOULD NEVER KNOW ALL THESE THINGS WHICH THE SCHOOL HAS BEEN KEEPING FROM ME, OKAY ARGH.
Even Biozone! Why do we need Bio lessons if we have Biozone? Biozone is the single best resource for Bio EYAs, I swear - if I had realized it at the beginning of the Sep holidays, my bio revision would have been done on Monday. Also, my Organic Chemistry demystified book tells me that there is a hell lot we don't know about organic chemistry, and what we are learning now is just going to make it harder for us to do chemistry in JC because our secondary chem curriculum is so basic and erroneous that we have to get rid of practically everything.
/rant.
Now I'm hungry. I'm not sleeping tonight until I finish History/Lit, okay <- ultimatum to self.
(Bernice and Rui Fen said today that ONLY UNCOOL PEOPLE GET INTO HP BECAUSE - WELL, THEY CAN ONLY GET IN BECAUSE THEY'RE UNCOOL ENOUGH TO HAVE HIGH GRADES and that HP IS REALLY SECLUDED AND EXCLUSIVE omg I am very D: D: Whatever it is I am still going to keep in touch with my ~awesome friends okay damn it screw all the ~social conventions/clique rules D< )
