Cynthia Reacts to "Kids React"

Yesterday I woke up with a giant pimple on my face and the first thing my dad said to me was, "I'm taking you to Neeta to get your passport photo done."

......

If you don't know, passport photos last for about 5 years before you have to redo them. So even when I'm twenty-something years old, I'll still have the same pimply-faced photo. Great.

So I was watching some youtube videos and I came across those darned "Kids React" ones. I have seen a few before  - I've watched "Kids React to K-pop", "Kids React to One-Direction" and "Kids React to The Hunger Games". From what I remember, I never really liked those kids and their snooty/pompous attitudes . I know they're just reacting and expressing their feelings over strange fads and whatnot but some of them are just so narrow minded. For example, in the Kids React to K-pop one, one guy was like, "I don't like it because I don't understand it." Uhh dude, I think that's because it's IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE. That video received so much negative feedback that the uploaders disabled the ratings bar. Does that seem redundant to you? The kids are allowed to react to k-pop but we're not allowed to react to their reaction.


I also watched "Kids React to Hatsune Miku". Yes, she's a machine, yes she's computer generated but that doesn't mean she ain't cool. And FYI, the language is Japanese, not "gibberish". There is a difference, guys. I also really wanted to punch that girl in the end. The one that goes, "I'm done. She's not a real person; this isn't real music; I don't want to listen to her anymore." That's like saying you won't listen to dubstep because it's not made by actual instruments.

Back to the K-pop video, one of the girls said, "You know what really bugs me? When Asian people bleach their hair, because it's really fake." Okay fine. So white people aren't allowed to dye their hair a colour other than their natural one? Duuuuuude, think before you speak.

/end rant

ANYWAYYYS, on to a different topic: don't hit me when I say this but I actually really like Justin Bieber's new album. Y'all can say what you want about him and his overblown pop-star status but you have to admit, the guy does make nice music HAHAHAHA. My favourite track is probably "As Long As You Love Me" - I know, cliched title but that doesn't make the song any less epic.

Stuff you Extension 2 English Project. STUFF YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!! /end rant

Frustration

I have a lot of hate and anger right now. So I'm just warning you guys - this isn't gonna be a post full of marshmallows and rainbows and happiness (not that I ever blog about marshmallows and rainbows and happiness).

A lot of my pissed-off-of-ness came from maths tutor. I hate it. I hate it with a burning passion - like I've never hated anything as much before in my life. I don't know what it is exactly but a part of it comes from being cooped up 3-4 hours in a tiny white room while learning about something that frankly, doesn't interest me at all. Okay to be honest, I don't always hate it. But the feeling is common enough that I know it can't be anything else.

I have tried to like it. Don't sit there and judge me and think that I've never tried. I have. But I still don't like it.

I also am quite sick of myself. While I sit there and rot in that little white room a voice in my head just keeps asking, "Why do you bother with 4u then?". And I hate that I can't answer that. It's definitely not because I like it. The whole row at the back of the classroom seems to ADORE it and for some reason, that just adds to my annoyance. Yes I am aware that I am being a petty, spoilt brat. And I hate that that's how I feel. Actually now that I think about, it seems like the more significant reason that I hate maths tutor is because of myself and the attitude I have towards it. I can't understand myself and that annoys me. Maybe it's because I'm scared of dropping it. I'm scared of dropping it and then regretting it. Oh and also the "telling people that I'm dropping it" part too. Especially my maths tutor. Oooh that'll be nasty.

Can I just say that I am really tempted to ring Othilia just so I could vent to someone? But I won't do that because 1) it's 10 at night and 2) we have school tomorrow. I am a very strange person. I love being alone and doing stuff by myself (e.g. reading books, watching TV shows on my laptop) but when I start feeling frustrated or angry I just have to vent to someone. (Haha, speaking of which, I don't know how Elyn does it. How is it possible that she hasn't spontaneously combusted from all the random shit I tell her in maths class? I swear, sometimes I feel like I'm just overloading her with all my worries and she just takes it in. LOL. Elyn I don't think you read this but can I just say that you are awesome.) Sorry guys, I know it's not fair - it's almost like I'm saying that I only need you when I'm upset. BUT I'M NOT SAYING THAT OKAY? I LOVE YOU GUYS. DON'T THINK THAT I DON'T.

Sigh. I was going to rant more but I can't be bothered. I want to read and lose myself in a story. I don't want to think about school tomorrow and upcoming HSC exams. That will only make me more stressed and angry. Goodnight people.

P.S. I, like Tian, have only recently realised that there is a "stat" button up there on my blogger dashboard. How did I not notice it before? Anyway, just wanted to say Hi to anyone from Ukraine that's reading this LOL. Apparently you make up quite a big percentage of my blog traffic :L

I am discombobulated

What is wrong with this English assessment task? It's like freakin' bipolar. It can't make up its mind whether to be a report or a magazine article 'cause seriously, to whoever wrote this task, THOSE ARE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS. A magazine article requires some sort of personal response -kind of like a feature article, you have to engage with the audience (and usually, it's written informally.)Well, from the limited number of magazines I've ever read, that seems to be the case...

A report on the other hand is supposed to present the outcome of research, investigations or meetings. It is written FORMALLY, with simple and concicse expressions. One of the teachers said you're supposed to use the word "I" and make your own judgements. How are you supposed to do that if reports are meant to be impartial? And aren't reports usually written for science/economics/business type things, not literature? Unless you're talking about a literature review... in that case, it is a totally different thing.

So basically, you've got to be formal yet you can refer to yourself. Impartial yet remembering to add your own opinions. Use subheadings but somehow try to cover like, 15 aspects. And somehow, make it sound like it's straight out of a poetry magazine. Dude, who even reads poetry magazines???

MY INCOMPETENT BRAIN CANNOT COMPREHEND ANY OF THIS. Somebody? Anybody? Please explain, LOLS.

Road Rage Rant

Tian's watching City Hunter now :D YAY. Hey stop looking at me like that! I swear I didn't bully her into it.


WARNING: this post contains language that is inappropriate for lil children under the age of 12


MY DRIVING INSTRUCTOR IS SUCH A MOTHERFUCKING BITCH. Honestly, if I didn't have to focus all my concentration on staying alive, I would be screaming my head off at him. Instead, I curse him in my mind with all the rudest words I know. He makes my piano teacher look like a freakin cuddly teddy bear.




Driving is .... interesting. I guess I don't hate it but right now its frustrating. It doesn't help that the stupid motherfucker keeps telling me how bad I drive. DUDE, of course I drive bad! I've barely been behind the wheel for 2 hours. What did you expect? Some sort of naturally gifted teenager who knows every single control just after one lesson? Bitch. I can't believe I have to put up with you for 3 more lessons.

All this anger is bad for my skin. I need to watch some City Hunter to calm down. I can pretend that all politicians Lee Min Ho bashes are my driving instructor.

Spaz

Damn you bloody t-formula question. You made me waste like a bloody 15 minutes on you, and you weren't even supposed to be a hard question. I betcha I copied the question wrong. Yeh, that's probably it. Cause I swear to Buddha my working out was all right. AAARGH.

Cow Tipping and Milkshakes

Fuck yew 4u maths homework, GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Eloquence can get stuffed today cause I am NOT IN THE MOOD to write properly.


I brought this on myself though. So technically there's no one else to blame. Well actually I could name one person but they'll be no point blaming them cause they're just doing their job. BUT SERIOUSLY. What am I doing? Why did I even agree to this? Do I even like maths? I honestly don't know. This has been the question that has bothered me for like, forever. If something is easy and straightforward and you don't mind doing the homework for it, does that mean that you like the subject?


I like english. But I don't like writing essays. HELL, nobody likes writing essays. But I do like learning the stuff you learn in english - it makes you think about the world.


Not like maths. When will I ever use complex numbers in everyday life? It's not like I'm gonna go around telling everybody that square root of negative 1 gives you a real plus imaginary number. I guess I don't mind doing maths homework. It's only when the homework gets so hard and asdkfja;sdlfjasd that I start hating it. I think I've just spent 3 and a half bloody hours doing the stupid maths tutoring hw. GAHHHHH. Even caps lock is insufficient for me to express my rage. So this picture shall have to suffice.






Maybe you shouldn't question some things though. It will just give you a headache. Like everytime I ask myself why I'm doing 15 units for the HSC, my head implodes. But its okay, I will have 3 units over and done with by this year and next year, I plan to drop something. Maybe music? Or legal..... I don't really like legal. Hmmm....you know what else you shouldn't ask? Is Mexico part of North America or South America? 'Cause that will boggle your mind. Well, maybe not but it did confuse me. I spent half of lunchtime today pondering this really difficult question. But that's just me. I didn't even know Spain was part of Europe until a month ago.

Okay, enough ranting. Let's talk about the serious stuff.


I want to go cow-tipping one day.


I've always known what cow tipping was but just not the exact details and today I found out from a teacher what it really entails. So basically, you go up to a cow right? Then you have to scare it. And once you've scared it, push it over and IT WON'T BE ABLE TO GET UP.


ISN'T THAT LIKE THE MOST FREAKIN' AWESOMEMEST THING YOU'VE EVER HEARD OF?!


So I have decided. It's always been my dream to go berry picking and have a picnic somewhere idyllic and epic-looking right? Well listen up people. For my birthday this year, we shall pack our picnic baskets, go berry picking and TIP OVER COWS. Then we will make delicious berry milkshakes from the berries we've picked and the cows we've tipped over ('cause all their milk will have been shaken up!). YAY :D


Goodnight fellow bloggers, I shall leave you with the thought of delicious berry milkshakes. Something to dream about while you sleep ;)


P.S. For some really really strange reason, blogger has decided to spite me and not allow me to post comments on people's posts. I've tried more than 5 times and everytime, i haven't been able to post anything. I really want to say hi to some people but I can't :( So I will just say it here? Hi Othilia, I found your blog :D (obviously) and also Hi CC! I hope you're reading this. I wanted to comment on your posts but I can't cause blogger doesn't like me. I hope this problem gets fixed up soon. Otherwise I may need to upload more angry pictures to express my rage.

Rant

I hate it when people go, "You have to decide yourself, Cynthia. Don't think that we're pushing you to do this, cause we're not. It's all up to you." But you can just feel that they're expecting you to do it and all you want to do is go, "STOP BULLSHITTIN' IN MA FACE >:( AND JUST DECIDE FOR ME. FARRRRR. "

Like that whole history extension thing. Although technically no-one really pushed me to do it. I just couldn't decide and ended up going for it anyway. You know what? I think that's my problem. Once someone offesr something to me, I can't say no. And there's that added pressure of not wanting to say no in case its like you just took the chance they offered and chucked it back into their face. Oh god, this is bad. What if someone offers me drugs in the future and I can't say no????

Today, Ms M and my vocal teacher offered me an audition thingy for some kind of music workshop that's held annually. Basically it's a very difficult program to get into and I think they only accept 20 people a year. Anyway if I accept, I have to prepare 2 audition pieces (for singing) and I also need backing tracks for it. Then on the day of the audition Ms will drive me to the place (along with a few others also from our school) and then I have to.... audition. If you do make it in, you get 6 days of intensive but fun music workshopping (spread out over the year) and near the end of term 3, they hold a concert to showcase what youd've done. That is assuming, if you do make it in.

I don't know if I want to though. I've already got a lot piled up on my plate, not to mention my extreme case of stagefright that means I have a talent for sounding like a strangled chicken when I sing in front of others. And also, you can just tell that those auditions will have heaps of THOSE people. Yeh, you know what I mean. Those really confident, talented people who have like, done auditions their whole lives.

What to do? :(

fml (again)

My life fucking sucks.

I have a tutor test tomorrow, which I didn't hear about until an hour ago. I've been sitting at the back for my Wednesday classes so sir doesn't check my work. Which is a good thing cause I don't get about half the stuff I learn in class, I struggle with the homework and I've got like all these random black spaces in my book where I think I'm supposed to have working out but I don't cause I just don't get it.

I got yelled at by my piano teacher (again) cause I haven't been reading up on classical suites, purcell and bach.

My mum can't drive me back from tutor tomorrow. So guess who's gonna be driving me home? ><' Two words ass-hole.

My modern history exam is the day after tomorrow. I couldn't study for it cause I was cramming for the tutor test that just came out of nowhere.
I can't do it. My brain's gonna explode.
I can't fucking write 2 essays (5-6 pages each), an extended response and answer short answer questions in only 2 hours.
I think they're overestimating me. My english feature article was only about 3 pages and I had TWO periods to do that.

I don't even have time to study for my normal year 10 yearlies cause of all the stuff I've been doing. Oh and Ms M has decided to use the violin people as her music slaves again so that means I need to practice for another performance. I AM SO SICK OF THAT SONG.

I also stubbed my toe again. Another stuffed-up toenail. It won't stop bleeding.

*sigh* Ranting to this blog has helped..... a little. But I still have a giant headache that won't go away and I still feel like crying. I think I'll just go to sleep now. I can't think clearly.

P.S. I wonder who reads this blog... It's kind of scary thinking that some randoms out there might come across this.

'Tis a War out there...

Things pissing me off:

  • My parents are gay losers.
  • My mum says she doesn't want to pay for my vocal+violin lessons anymore. Well that's just great, especially since she told me at the beginning of the term that she would pay for anything AS LONG AS I WANTED TO DO IT. <---- you see that? Those were her exact words. She's not supposed to just change her mind cuz she felt like it! Where the fuck am I supposed to get $125 from?! If she didn't want me to take those lessons she should have TOLD ME THAT AT THE BEGINNING OF THE TERM. HA! Who's the bad parent??
  • Just when I manged to catch up on stuff, the teachers decided to give us an english assessment. whoopee.
  • I think I'm gonna drop tutoring classes cuz everything we've done so far, I haven't understood. Actually why is this even on this list? I should be happy that I'm dropping cuz then I would finally understand what I'm doing.
  • I asked my dad why he kept yelling at my aunty and uncle - especially since they were just bringing food to our house. He turned his anger to me instead and started yelling random junk at me. & since my mum is a brainless zombie who likes to support her brainless husband, she started yelling at me as well - and I didn't even do anything O_O. But it was kinda funny when my dad turned around and directed his anger towards her. Now they're both spazzing at each other downstairs. Ahhh, music to my ears.
  • I realize that I should be studying surds right now - not blogging. LOL, how lazy have I become?
  • Tomorrow is Wednesday and Wednesday means piano lessons and piano lessons mean getting yelled at by my piano teacher cuz I don't practice my scales.
  • Last but not least, I have gay parents.

EDIT: I just asked my mum what I was supposed to eat for dinner and since she was still pissed about the argument with my dad, she told me to "Eat shit." See how much my parents love me?

That's all :)

Gayest of them all

Today, I realised that if you knew my name + school, you could stalk me via google. It would come up with a list of links and one of them led to this page. I've changed the settings now so that people don't stumble onto this page randomly. It's not that I have a problem with randoms, its just that on this page, I sometimes bitch about things that might offend some people...

Like now.

Mr. Downsyndrome, you are a gaybo and I hate you >:( I AM NOT BRINGING SCIENCE WORK TO AMERICA! Like, WTFFF?! Today, when I told him that I wasn't going to be here for four weeks, he gave me a death stare and said, "WHY are you telling this to me now? Do you want me to run around at the last minute preparing work for you?"

Errr.. NO! Who said anything about extra work? Not me. I just wanted you to know that, in case we have anything important coming up. FAR OUT! I already gave a note to the office about my early leave. I've done everything I should've done so just STOP with the why-are-you-not-responsible shit. You can take your science hw and ----- &%$#@

Ms S, you are also a gaybo. Why the hell do I need to go typequick tomorrow to record my results? What's wrong with telling them to you now? During the whole typequick course, I've been staring at my results 10000 times and NOW you call me back to record them. Gee, isn't that smart.

Mr N is also a gaybo - but that's self-explanatory.

Mr. J (tutor), I hate you as well. Why do you have to make me do a test the day before I go? I have a life okay. Please don't make me do a test that I haven't prepared for, espcially one that I didn't even know was on, until the day before.

& who's the gayest of them all, you ask? Well, Ms H of course. She also gave me a you-just-made-my-life-harder-glare when I said I was going to the US. I think she was pissed coz I wasn't going to be here for the test. That's not my problem, I warned her a week ago that I was leaving and she chose to remember now. Again, NOT MY PROBLEM!

Phew, now that I've gotten that out of my system, I feel much better. I can now go back to acting normal at school instead of having a black cloud hanging over me the whole day. I swear, I just wanted some people get struck by lightning today...

Anyway, this is why I need to protect my blog from unwanted visitors. I really don't want people stumbling onto this blog by accident.... especially people who'll get offended by what I write.

I think I'll end off now with a POTO reference (HAHA, you thought that for once, I wasn't going to mention Phantom of the Opera, didn't you? Well tough luck).


(as she attempts to leave the first
time)
Carlotta: Andiamo.
Tutti. No, es finito. Is finished. Get my doggy, bring my doggy. Bye-bye.
Bye-bye, dancing girls. Bye-bye. See you later, because I'm going now. It is
finished.
See you later.
Lefevre: Gentlemen,
good luck. If you need me, I shall be in Australia.

Well, if you need me, I'll (soon) be in america. Goodbye and goodnight :)
