Finally the academic year is over, and I can finally not care anymore about academic stuff..and devote myself fully to reading other books and playing dota and going out with friends. Time to relax.

And so pass another year.. one more year together as a class..perhaps the class situation ain't so bad.. Things are getting better between cliques, and I think perhaps by next year the class spirit will be much stronger. Pity that by the time the class is well bonded, we will have to part again.

Who wants to watch The Inconvenient truth and DOA? I might sponsor half your ticket fees, depending on my mood and generosity.

Being naturally stupid is not a sin. No one is gonna blame you for being stupid naturally. Even naturally stupid people can be cultivated to a certain level of intelligence.

Now, it IS a sin, when you are graced with intelligence and the abilities to reason, and you choose to be stupid. Ironically, it is an extreme act of stupidity to act stupid when you are not, just because you are lazy to think.

For god sake, some have PSLE score better than mine, and a O Lvl score that is way better than mine, but for sheer laziness of the mind, are acting as if they are more stupid than me. I understand that not everyone is born a genius. Even I concede I am not one. But logic and reasoning is something that can be cultivated and learnt. Once learnt, then use it! More than once, you can solve a problem with just logic and reasoning and some contextual knowledge, instead of sitting down there and stoning.

That being said, it is also understandable that logic is slightly different for each person. Some people's logic is that logical consequences do not follow logically from logical sentences. But that is the minority. The 1% of the population. The rest of us share a common base of logic. From this logic, we can reach similar conclusions. All just with a little effort from the mind.

I just dunno whether people act stupid for the fun of it, or out of sheer laziness. Perhaps I will never know. I am almost past caring.

Two words : Depressingly Stupid.

An undispellable gloom seems to have settled itself over the country. The nation woke up overnight to find itself shrouded a by very thick layer to haze. Thanks to the forest fires, the latest PSI index is 150. Yes, unhealthy levels certainly. Surprisingly, the moon is beautiful tonight, full moon with a copper colour. Almost like a lunar eclipse. Well, well, at least the moon is bright red today. Could be a real lunar eclipse or could be the result of the the haze.

The haze looks gloomy to me. This morning while I was outside, I noticed that the sunlight filtering through the shrouded skies, was diffused. Hence, every object on the ground appeared not to have a shadow. Most unsettling. It gives the place a very unatural feel. Not just that, it looked like the entire place was being shrouded by the fog of war.

The consequence of this haze is that Games Day on Monday might possibly be called off.

Exams over..another annoying series of tests bypassed and neutralised.

Class outing I should say, does not leave up to its name..Should be renamed as clique outings..By and large, its not a wasted one, as I improved on bowling. Not too bad. At least there's less gutterballs now. All the physics knowledge in the world, and I cant do shit about it. Perhaps it has to do with the fact that people usually do not take out pencil and paper and start calculating whenenver they want to aim a basketball through the hoops, or when playing billiards. Its just pure instinct. In this type of games, if you let your brain rule, you are gonna be a second late in making critical decisions. Instead, you let your heart do the job. Pure instinct. Take a deep breath, the critical moment stretches to infinity as you aim and shoot. You release, and you turn away, knowing that you have just aimed correctly. As if on cue, 3 secs later, you hear the sound of all the pins falling. Bingo. The moment is vast.

--------------------------------------------

Heart confusion. I have better control now, able to think more clearly. Still, there are moments, I can not control anything. What's more, there is a certain urge not to do anything at all. To just let go and not try and control anything. I suppose I lack experience. Just like YH said, all the theory in the world, but no practical situations to rely on. Burnout, so weary, so weary. Half of me wants to retreat completely to inside my brain, the half wants to open up..

Next move? One step at a time.
