Social Commentary on all things... social

Sims 3 Pets is coming out soon. And guess what? THERE'S GONNA BE UNICORNS. WHOOOOOOOOOOOO. LOL. Just watched the trailer on youtube. The highest rated comment was, "So... who's gonna name their unicorn Charlie??"

Today was the SRC elections. Also known as the annual "Imma-gonna-judge-you-as-you-stand-there-and-talk-about-yourself" or the "Popularity-contest-thinly-disguised-as-a-Student-Representative-Council-election". Okay, I kid. I should stop being so cynical. Hey... my year 12 jersey should say Lil Miss CYNical. Geddit? Geddit?

But seriously though. Congrats to whoever did go up there and try out. You guys are really brave. And really dedicated. And I fully understand that it is very difficult to try to sell yourself to the grade without sounding like an obnoxious, overconfident human being.

I didn't exactly donkey vote this time.... but I think I was only really sure about 2 people. It's sad though, how the people who are actually really serious about it are the ones who do the sincere speeches. And the unfortunate reality is that people are more likely to vote for the "funny" speeches. NOT SAYING THAT FUNNY = NOT-SINCERE EITHER. But you know what I mean. I really admire the people who go up there and give it a go but like, you can't help thinking to yourself "I know this person says that they're doing it for the school, they want to help out and make it a better place, but are they really speaking the truth?"

And also, Lyanna, I'm not sure but I think it was you who said something like, you'll speak up for the people who don't usually speak up. Well you didn't say it like that but it was something along those lines (or perhaps I was hallucinating, I'm not sure). If you did, then thanks for doing that. If you didn't, then just ignore me as I ramble on. The whole time I was waiting for someone to say that. In our grade, there is an imbalance sometimes. The quiet people are the ones who get overlooked. Even during the speeches, you could tell it was all the louder, more popular people at the back who get heard. And that's just our grade, y'know. Sometimes, I just wish that there wasn't such an imbalance. But there's not much you can do about it, right?

And now I have totally forgotten what my main point was. HAHAHA. That paragraph up there doesn't even make sense. Oh well. Maybe I'll try saying it clearly - once I figure out what I'm trying to say.

Split Personality Syndrome

Hooray! I have finally reached over 10000 views for this blog lol. Well, it wasn't a goal per se, but I just thought I'd mention it. According to my calculations, I have written 382 posts since I started this blog a while ago.



10000 divided by 382 = 26.17801047



So therefore, for every post I write, approximately 26 people read it. Well that's probably not very accurate since when I started this blog I only had 3 followers. heh. And guess what? I have NEVER deleted a post, ever. Even when I've regretted what I've written, I've just left it there lol.



But it's not like you care, so ... MOVING ON!



ONLY 3 MORE DAYS TILL THE HOLIDAYS, HALLEFUCKINLLUJAH!!! Do you know that means? It means I can finally watch City Hunter and ogle at Lee Min Ho. "Ogle" is such a funny word btw.








Sigh. But it's not gonna be much of a holiday. I've got trials to study for and notes to catch up on. Every time a new term starts, I reflect on my holidays and realise that I haven't actually done aything productive. But I am determined to fix that this time. CYNTHIA IS GOING TO BE PRODUCTIVE THESE HOLIDAYS. *fist pump air*



There is something wrong with me, lol. Everytime I'm around my friends I'm normal. And by normal, I mean, as normal as you can expect me to be. I speak, I laugh, I go hypo, I'm just me. But then if you pick me up and dump me in an unfamiliar situation, I turn into some kind of antisocial weirdo. AND THIS IS NOT ME! (caps lock for extra emphasis). I know a lot of youse might say that this is perfectly normal. And yeh, to be honest it doesn't happen often. I can be myself with the vast majority of people I know. But there are some specific people/groups of people that somehow bring on this really retarded change. It's so weird. I can't explain it. I'm like a totally different person and I'm pretty sure the vibe I give off is either "I'm a really nerdy person who wants to study by herself. Don't talk to me", or "I have no sense of humour and if you approach me I will hit you. Don't talk to me."



If someone knows how to cure a split personality, please contact me. As I said before, it doesn't happen often. It's only a specific group of people that bring this on.



Oh and btw, I need everyone here to be my witness. A retard I know says he can beat me in music in the yearly report. He's willing to bet $50 bucks that he can beat me - FIFTY BUCKS $$$ (caps lock for extra emphasis) -keep in mind that he came last in the half yearly report, lol. His excuse is that he didn't try. So anyway, once I do beat him, he will have to give me the money. And he better pay up because I have just told 30-something people about this bet :)




Just for the lulz...




Stress Free

I haven't blogged properly in a while. Nowadays, most of my blogs are about movies, books and my story. I think I'll just spend a few minutes blogging about something else for a change :)

High achievers was fun today. Ms N showed us the study wiz site and our whole class went into the chatroom and just chatted. Actually, I don't think it was our WHOLE class but yeh, it was still funny how everyone was talking our each other and and Ms was like, so noob at using the chatroom :L I also showed everyone my awesome wallpaper (inspired by Nancy) and they liked it so much, they told me to make it my permanent wallpaper :D

Geo test was gay. But hey whaddya expect? Its GEO, man. Enough said. Btw, did anyone else wonder why the passage on social networking was in that test? Like I know it kinda relates to community but seriously - was that the only comprehension passage they had that related to community?

In music, me, Booonie and Ifeelya were trying to use bluetooth to send files but everytime we searched for devices, a whole list of laptops and people's phones would come up. We spent like, 15 minutes trying to figure out which laptop was which and it didn't help that most of them were called: SA3133579302. I then realized that you could just click on My Computer and then it would show you your computer number :L What a waste of 15 minutes of my life T_T

& yes, I am supposed to be studying for maths but seriously, I cbb. It's not like I can go through the whole textbook and do all the questions right? Cuz that is the only way to totally prepare for the maths yearly. Well, you could always just read through the chapters briefly but that ain't gonna prepare you for the questions that'll be in the test. So stuff that.

I also finished watching 90210, now i'll just have to wait like everyone else for the new eps. Liam is SOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOT (L) I hate that new Ivy girl >:(

And now for some honesty. I feel different this year - whether its a good or bad thing I don't know but I've realized that I just don't care as much anymore. Whether its about school work or life or people, I feel very non-stressed. Like before in years 7 and 8, I used to stress a lot but this years different. I've realised that that some stuff that's been bugging me isn't important anymore. All I want to do is enjoy life and stuff what other people think. Lols look at me, I sound like a hippy :D

Strange

It's a strange feeling,

When your sister does something you've already done...

Except better.

Such as go to an orientation night for high school.

& come back telling you how great it was,

how excited she is,

& how much she already loves that school.

It feels...

Strangely dispiriting?

disheartening?

depressing?

I suppose it feels,

strange.
