School's officially ended. But, well not really. Like the Chinese paper is this Thursday, and I'm not sure I can pass. But putting that aside, holidays after that will be kind of packed. OCIP will take up 9 days of November, and Choir, as usual. I guess those are the main highlights of the holidays, and I'll be catching up on this years work, so I'll be studying, plus extra physics because of h3.
It's quite fun having lots of things to do, but the price is the stress of time. For me, I live each day planning for it the night before, so catch me when you can..

Deception, what a religion of the world. Consciously or not, all of us subscribe to it, even in the tiniest of matters. We deceive ourselves, to believe in what we believe. And after layers and layers of self-confirmation, that once simple thought, that deduction from the 1% of our brains transforms into a 'value' we hold so fast to. People by nature are egoistic, we twist our views to conform to our benefit. If not for our gain, then for the sake of edifying what we think is right. Then now I look at the world, and look at the suffering, the pain, the evil, the sins. What is right? Does the world even know that? Perhaps what they believe right, is just a result of a majority of people sharing the same beliefs. They group together and form a leadership. Soon, the rest of the human population follows blindly, satisfied with the lack of the need for thought, and for their conscience. As long as they do what the world thinks is right, they are right. And then, how about those other people? Those who set off bombs and crash planes. They too, had a belief, and this same belief brought these people together. They formed a leadership, gathered supporters, and carried out what was righteous to them. So now then, what's correct? What's pure? 'Right', is now subjective. It is defined in relation to what a person feels for. Everyone is different, then there's no constant to compare our actions to.
I believe I am a hypocrite. Being such a critic on the actions of others, yet doing the same things, just not showing them. I am a human. I believe I am egoistic, to the point that I can make claims about others, yet deny their justification for myself. Now I don't deny them. I am indeed what I make out others to be. Perhaps just a little more aware of the likes of this world, and having the ability of criticize the human race. But if I were to remain just like that, not making amends, stubbornly holding on to my views in order to aggrandize the basis of my actions, then am I no different from everyone else? What is right?

Oh well, promos are kind of over. It was fun in a way. Next it's back to school, and pw, and chinese. And I don't really have much to say now. So here's the end of the post.

Yay, it's my birthday, and I'm trying to force myself to stop facebooking and study physics, which happens to supposed to be my best subject, and also happens to be the subject I've somewhat neglected until today. Well, thanks to the 12 am birthday wishers, and in advance, those who are gonna do it at 11:59 pm. You guys are probably the ones who read my blog anyway, the number of you I always try to estimate and fail when I constantly discover the efficiency of google and the internet.
Oh well, half the J1's are celebrating the unofficial end of promos, since spa is too easy to be considered, and the other half are either slacking because of no hope, which is a very wise decision, or desperately trying to refresh one year's worth of formulas and definitions. I've always believed in understanding, but for exams, I don't have a choice but to practice. The time limit destroys the meaning of Physics as a comprehension of knowledge and turns it into "how fast your brain and hand can work'. But I suppose it's necessary, or we'll be in the exam hall all day as I derive every single formula from a raw understanding.
I'm seeming to like long sentences more and more, which is quite bad. Anyway, ACJC open house is next wednesday!, come for it people, sec 4 or not..
Oh yeah, I was considering moving to wordpress, should I? haha..
