Examination yet again...
Well. I put away all my negative thoughts and proceeded the first day with enthusiasm. Who knows what might happen, right? I might even get distinction right? its just the mid term exam. The time looks more then enough, and add maths is getting easy. Right????
WRONG. The time for us to do 10 X (1 - 4) "Seemingly easy" questions was TOO SHORT. I was not able to do the last question worth 10 marks!!!!!!!!!!! Dang it!!!
Sigh. It just spoiled by day. And the reminder of next week's school on SATURDAY yet again was even worse. What is with Saturdays man... Is it a special day for that unspecial someone that claims to be making it even better but in the direct opposition is making it worse???
Oh it is much better now!! I feel SO "HAPPY" going to school on SATURDAYS.
Oh, anyways..
Im so not prepared for exam week. Sigh...
What a sad..sad...exam week..

To The Post That Is
Below. Look at the post below first.
Our school got third place at the competition. I was not complaining, as I might be the cause too, I might have pulled my team down. Anyways, BL won the competition. They were really good! Their drama had humor, action and maybe that was horror in the end. It was also mysterious. I was still wondering why that Sudin guy was dead when he just faked it. Second place was Kolej Abdillah. I wasn't able to witness their performance, but It MUST be good too!
And by the way, the king of pop passed away on late June. 25th, to be exact. Many in this world grew up with his songs. I, undeniably was one of them. It started when my eldest sister got addicted to his songs and brought all of his song videos and tapes. She played it every day and even danced with it! I, as the innocent and naive one back then copied what she did and even stared at the song videos. As a result, I tend to enjoy it until now.
Back then, all of his song videos were mysterious with a serious jab of action. I used to hide when my sister played Triller, Laugh at all the mysterious sightseeing in one of the music videos and will go on and on each time it was played. Till now, it feels a tad nolstagic to listen to his songs now and then.
He was an inspiration to all the black people in the world. He said that it does not matter if people are black or white. (Or should I say sung it) HE also taught many of the stars how to dance and sing.
HE was the best father in the world, according to his children. They loved him so much. The world LOVED him so much.
SADLY, he was taken by cardiac arrest. His heart stopped.
But to me, he is still the King of Pop. He still lives in my memories. And forever, he will.
RIP, King of Pop (1958-2009)
We will miss you-

Oh!!~ The...
Drama~~
I'm in the Drama club this year. Im going to act as a Malay person in an Ibanese rural. Its about the Japanese invasion. Wait. Its ALWAYS about the Japanese invasion. Okay, I'll give the synopsis of the drama script in story.
The Japanese is invading Batang Ai. People in town was rioting and picketing, while holding placards of some sort demanding Peace, Justice,Humanity...etc. etc. Ahmad, the leading talker will start to rant about how the Japanese is making it worse for the people and about how the Japanese destroyed everything in Jakar. Then, he asks his friends to do something. After this and that, they borrowed a longhouse from Jisin, a fellow villager.
They plotted to serve the Japanese with poisonous wine, and while they are too intoxicated to retaliate or whatever, the people will go inside the camp of the Japanese and set up a bomb. Then, Tukau, the sadistic and clumsy yet heroic character will be like "Oops~ I tripped" and fall face down. Then, the others will be like "You deserve to die for being so clumsy" and walk away. Then, the story ends with a feast and the people will give a moment of silence to the dead Tukau.
And for the practice, im such a dimwitt. I do not know how to express myself even though I tried and tried. The dialogue seems to be much easier in Japanese. (I rarely watch English dramas) And so I do not know how people express themselves in English.
And I do not dare to do much in front of a crowd. I can imagine myself blankly staring at the crowd, forgetting my lines..
I have in all, five lines.
"The Japanese are invading our town, Batang Ai! Are we just going to sit back and let them? Look at what they have done to Jakar!! The paddy farms and corn fiels have been completely destroyed! We much DO something!~"
"What if they come to? What do we do with them?"
"We must be careful not to poison ourselves as well. The women and children have to be informed, and if possible moved to another longhouse."
"Im glad our plan went well. And thank you, Jisin for letting us borrow your longhouse"
"Lets give a moment of silence to Tukau, Batang Ai's hero"
I did not really memorise them. I just read them over and over again until it becomes stuck at the back of my head.
SO, if you ask me a question I'l be like...
Asker: Its a good day right? Whats your name , young man?
Me: The Japanese are invading our town, Batang Ai! Are we just going to sit back and let them? Look at what they have done to Jakar!
Asker: What are you talking about, young man?
Me: The paddy farms and corn fields have been completely destroyed! We must do something!
Asker: What is one plus one?
Me: What if they come to? What do we do with them?
Something like that...
The competition will be on July. And I'l be gone for 3 days before the competition because im going for Holidays. Fun before the rain, huh?
Anyways, thats all for now, and im sure that (There is only one at the max) that will read what I post so, thanks for reading and TTFN.

Kasa-Obake
Karakasa (唐傘, "Chinese umbrella"), or Kasa Obake, are a type of Tsukumogami, a form of Japanese Spirit that originate from objects reaching their 100th year of existence, thus becoming animate. Karakasa in particular are Spirits of Parasols (umbrellas) that reach the century milestone. They are typically portrayed with one eye, a long tongue protruding from an open mouth, and a single foot, generally wearing a geta.
Tsukumogami (付喪神 , "ninety-nine of ago spirit") are a type of Japanese spirit. According to the Tsukumogami-emaki, tsukumogami originate from items or artifacts that have reached their 100th birthday and thus become alive and aware. Any object of this age, from swords to toys, can become a tsukumogami. Tsukumogami are considered spirits and supernatural beings, as opposed to enchanted items.
Tsukumogami vary radically in appearance, depending on the type of item they originated from as well as the condition that item was in. Some, such as tsukumogami originating from paper lanterns or broken sandals, can have tears which become eyes and sharp teeth, thus giving a horrifying visage. Others, such as worn prayer beads or teacups, may merely manifest faces and appendages, giving a warm and friendly appearance.
Though by and large tsukumogami are harmless and at most tend to play occasional pranks on unsuspecting victims, as shown in the Otogizōshi they do have the capacity for anger and will band together to take revenge on those who are wasteful or throw them away thoughtlessly. To prevent this, to this day some Jinja ceremonies, such as the Hari Kuyou, are performed to console broken and unusable items.
It is said that modern items cannot become tsukumogami; the reason for this is that tsukumogami are said to be repelled by electricity.[1] Additionally, few modern items are used for the 100-year-span that it takes for an artifact to gain a soul.
For example, the Bakezori(Straw Sandals), Ittan-Mommen(A One-Tenth hectare of cotton), Karakasa(The umbrella) or the Cochinobake(Lantern).
I am very intrigued by the paranormal! For example, the Tsukumogami.
According to Wikipedia, Tsukumogamis are Objects that become alive after being left alone for 100 years. Exciting, not? It says that they will extract their anger for being left alone by taking revenge after having a life of its own, mainly by scaring or surprising their past owners.
My Favorite Tsukumogami is the Karakasa, or Kasa-Obake. The Karakasa is an umbrella, the ancient Chinese or Japanese one, Made of paper. The paper umbrella is a mystical item.
The Chinese people believe, that if there is a person dying under a paper umbrella, their soul would enter and possess the umbrella, Thus rendering the umbrella haunted.
For me, there is a very old paper umbrella passed down to my family by my Great grandmother. The paper umbrella is said to bring luck, but we musn't touch or disturb the umbrella.
This marks the end of my post! (There may only be 1 reader at max, but thanks for reading!)
