is pain a necessary motivation?

i am overwhelmed. there is a desperate desire surging within me to protect the status quo. People might be leaving my class, my school ( like me). from what i heard, that scenario would be highly probable. it is different from leaving people from primary or secondary school, beacause the departure was somehow more pleasant then. we were happy (perhaps?), with glorious paths and brightened futures ahead. there were promises of gatherings, of keeping in touch, that were feasible, that saw us through our ages, saw each other. it is somehow like giving away a child, as though cutting a part of you, which in this case your memories swathed in precious cloth. it is protected, and in the giving of it away, yet still knowing that it would live on, embody another life, another destiny. but what of our friends, who want to stay on, but can't?simply because there is not enough room on the path for them to tranverse the journey alongside you? even as we wave each other apart, as our paths divide and inevitably forked, the distance would be tooooo great for us to ever, EVER find each other again. and the truth is people forget. and we'd just be people walking on street in opposite directions, not a word said.if only it lasted forever. if only the dream never ends-

and our lives did touched, for that ephemeral moment, before the knots came undone, and the threads reeled to weave a seperate embroidery. only vestiges remain, but how much of that is enough? enough even to form a semblance of picture, and of memory? only strings... strings that, with an expert hand and time, could have been..

sigh.

I don't like cutting my hair.

It is not because of the fact it looks like an exotic fruit after the haircut or the fact that it costs 15 bucks for a simple TRIMMING. It is more of the fact that hairdressers can't stop talking during the haircut. Don't think thats very bad? They speak in canto.

Then the conversation will become like a one-sided tennis match, or a convo whereby a buaya tries to pickup some gorgeous gal- it just doesn't work. Then again, it resembles some conversations I have with my classmates. Exciting, isnt it?

Speaking of bad english, O level results were released a couple of days back! Oh Joy to the World! What more can cckss students ask for than to be praised by our teachers for breaking records namely:

1. the most number of failures ever achieved-
2. national percentage for distinction in english is 36%(?? i created it), ccks achieved 18.8%
3. and perhaps the most number of students who showed up late (I'm pretty sure this doesn't happen in other schools)

and because she congratulated us in such a sincere manner, I actually believed for a second that we did better than before! shit..my english sucks

Anyway, my only form of consolation is that God made people in a very fair.
If you are stupid and scored F9, you are most likely very beautiful or handsome. Be happy!
If you are smart and scored A1, then...you are just smart and...erm. no comments.
If you are smart and good looking, then you can only be an evil person. LOL

So far example, look at William Hung. Or rather don't, cause it might induce vomiting. He looks like THAT! and still managed to cut an album. Life is fair sometimes.

Just kidding la..dont take it too hard. ENGLISH only what..not like I did damn well also..

Sometimes things in life aren't fair. Like in xx country, some guy pointed the middle finger at me while I was on the train, between the glass doors of course. Some people just don't like you for no reason. But on the other side of the coin, people just like you for reasons they cannot explain. Right, jan? hahaaahah

And it just so happens my secret valentine doesn't like me for some reason. So I didnt give her anything since I don't really know her anyway..maybe something practical and useable like toilet paper. Romantic? No. Unexpected and different? Yes.

anyway. life is fair, SOMETIMES.
