Where Did You Come From LadyElizabeth Tan♥ |
posted on Saturday, August 29, 2009340th post!and happy birthday michael jackson. it's amazing how he still has such a massive influence from the grave. after church today we rushed back to watch his history tour on channel 5. omg, i was swearing at every driver on the road because they were so damn slow! i nearly wound down the window to yell: "ey people! MOVE! michael jackson is about to start!" haaha, yeah, i'm that crazy. but my dad was driving like a maniac so we could get home on time. of course the late mj rocked in concert. he always does. and i got annoyed at my cousin a few times for making unwarranted comments so after whacking him a couple of times with a pillow he stopped(: it was cute the way we were all glued to the tv. i seriously think if i was one of those girls at his concert i would have screamed non-stop. maybe even fainted! the backup dances looked pretty pathetic next to him. i got quite annoyed at them after a while... but mj really looks weightless for some reason. he just does it so effortlessly and all the backup dances struggling behind him just get on your nerves. haha. maybe that's why they put them there. to make him look even better! but that would have been unnecessary. i can't believe he didn't sing man in the mirror though. but when he sang heal the world, all the kids came out and the little girl was so damn cute! gosh, they sure know how to pick adorable children. haha. sigh, what a tragic end to so much talent. i really think that doctor is in deep shit right now. he just killed one of the most loved people in the world. yes, and one of the most baffling too. posted on Friday, August 28, 2009ey, rc made me realise somethingjust because i took a subject (or take) doesn't mean i actually learnt anything. watch out. teenager angst coming out right about now. but seriously, what on earth are we studying for? the education system is already so screwed up that we're just making life more difficult for ourselves in order to keep up with people who love making their life hell. this education system only works for muggers and conformists. it basically tells you, do or die. there's no room for mistakes. damn, there's no bloody room to even breathe! and they blame us for not having creativity? why don't they go look at the system and then rethink that thought before i shoot them. anyway, i, a non-conformist, feel that we have been brainwashed. like in to kill a mokingbird. scout's class is made to repeat "we are a democracy". isn't that ironic? for obvious reasons and that they don't actually get to figure for themselves if they truly are a democracy? even now, sometimes you really wonder where is the democracy in America, the country that prides itself in being the land of dreams and freedom. yet, in their own ms usa pageant slammed a contestant for giving her honest opinion, which might i add that according to atticus, she is "entitled to". i mean, if they wanted some crapped up politically correct answer, then why'd they even ask? and the judge said he wanted the "perfect" ms usa who doesn't "isolate". what stupid reason is that? she didn't isolate anyone, she just told the people what she felt. she gave them the choice to disagree, she didn't force her views on them. she gave a reason for her view too. and "perfect" does not exist in this world. urgh. this is absolutely disgusting. and obama said practically the exact same thing as her. and no one persecuted him. so you're saying that ms usa can't be honest but mr obama can go ahead. i think some of us would start to detect gender bias at this point and i utterly loathe people who put women down because they are usually men. men who are narrow minded and have a pathetic chip-on-the-shoulder. and i have factual proof that they are narrow minded. i don't want to go to jc and deal with stupid guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ahhhhh. why can't there be an ijjc!?

I AM GOING TO MISS IJ! i think i'll just die in jc. i'll miss ij so much i'll be crying myself to pulp everyday! there'll be stupid guys and we won't be able to complain about so many things anymore! but i need a change in environment. ij's been my home for going on 10 years! that's more than half my entire life span! [i feel young now(:] but i think the change and the whole exciting bit of something new will and can probably last at most half a year. after that i'll be all bitter that everything isn't like ij cause ij's so unique. this is why i love having those whiny, honest and sometimes paranoid conversations with arielene during out free periods. if i don't end up with her in jc i won't be able to do that anymore!!! we won't be able to panic with each other about ending up alone, or talk about how we want our children to turn out, what kind of guys we find absolutely annoying or even, okay, i won't continue, some of it is inappropriate material. haha. but ij girls will know la, we're so honest with each other. oh, just the thought of leaving 10 years of love, faith, joy, hopes and dreams, worries, trials and anger, it's a horrible thought. it's just so excruciatingly painful! all those conversations that sam and me had to squash on post-its so that we wouldn't be caught? all the crazy things baba and mang say? funny lessons with mr chan, mrs alex and mr tan's retarded stories and jokes? nonsensical conversations during recess? this is the price we pay for the things we love. yet, we pay it so willingly who would believe there was even a price at all? none, not one, no, not till the pain settles snugly in our hearts and the longing stretches out before us vast, intimidating and plain like the desert sand. posted on Thursday, August 06, 2009In politics if you want anything said, ask a man. If you want anything done, ask a woman.Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren't. To wear your heart on your sleeve isn't a very good plan; you should wear it inside, where it functions best. You don't tell deliberate lies, but sometimes you have to be evasive. I'm extraordinarily patient provided I get my own way in the end. I love argument, I love debate. I don't expect anyone just to sit there and agree with me, that's not their job. We want a society where people are free to make choices, to make mistakes, to be generous and compassionate. This is what we mean by a moral society; not a society where the state is responsible for everything, and no one is responsible for the state. -Margaret Thatcher this woman rocks. |
