Where.....who's the ape???

It’s impressive to see an ape or a monkey using tools almost man-made like overcoming man-made challenges which were made by….man to gauge the animal’s ability to think if even possible like a man. It’s impressive for we nvr imagine they could.
It is equally fascinating if not least terrifying to see man defying gravity acting like a monkey. To be able to climb up the petronas twin towers with only his hands maybe he’s more fated to be a monkey. Or that his genes were mixed up. But then again for that to happen, im accusing an ape of making his mom pregnant or that an ape gave birth to him…. In which I won’t since that’s overly obscene and inappropriate.

Well according to Darwin’s theory of evolution, we evolved from apes. Well they are the most similar from the animal kingdom. Imagine some Halfof guy coming up with a theory that we evolved from rats. Now, it aint very nice being somewhat related to rodents now iszit? Apes stand out from the rest of the animals as in their can think and have a decodable language.
But I don’t understand what’s so great about being a close relative to an animal. Is it much more ‘ying’ then being just human? Maybe coz we’re so bored that we resort to finding some hairy and rough animal to compare with thus showing our superiority and thus reaffirming the belief that we should rule the world not the other way around.
However, if indeed we evolved from apes, then why iszit that we have not witness an ape evolving to one of us? It couldn’t be that evolutions stops once a modern human was born. Heck, evolution cant even tell a diff between an ass and a horse. It just keep evolving blindly( actually no, it’s proven that evolution is very picky but what the heck) creating some new organism all the time. SO WHERE IS THE APE EVOLVING INTO A HUMAN?

Woots

I had never fathomed it to be this difficult. No, I did not even know. This is smth which I’ve embarked upon, smth new. I never liked jumping into the darkness, im those who like to know what’s in my hand and what I can do with it. But apparently once in awhile, a leap of faith is required eh?
I’ve consulted many and apparently I aint good at this. Lolz, lemme rephrase; I aint not good, I suck! ;). Apparently skill is required, so is sincerity and perseverance. All of which I have! But my skill is shabby, sincerity concealed and I hang on too long a lil too late.
I was cajoled into it. Well I think deep down I had wanted to do it but having neither the guts nor the know-hows, I needed a push…from someone, somethings. So as crappy as it is and as suspenseful as it was, im already in and there’s no turning back. I wonder what will happen?

I dunno what this is...

Time passes and things either grow or just fade away. Whatever that leaves an imprint on us is definitely worth remembering. It is always sweeter when we rekindle old memories than when living through it. It’s funny but we always hv the tendency to look back yet sometimes just fail to acknowledge the importance of that one moment.

Dont Bribe Me!

I was pancing-ed to liks's house at around 8 to do get the proposal for carnival done. I think i was pancing-ed. There was work and then there were stories bout the publisher and TIME's. Fine!

It was about 11 when we left and once again i was pancing-ed to send jovi home. So we were only bout 500m away from liks house when a police vehicle stopped next to us on the traffic light.

Nicks : Eh, jovi go pancing them!
Jovi : Ouh...
Nicks : *Waves his hand* Lime puluh ringgit! Wooo

Then they flashed us. Okay sonnuvab*tches we thought, stop playing with ur bright light. Then came another flash and we thought okay.

Jovi : Flash flash, later sound siren!

Just as the traffic light turned green came the holy blue lights. __ u nicks and jovi!

Apparently my brake light wasnt working and so was my rear light on the right. Bagus, am i s'pose to know that it aint working? Oh, and where was my P stickers? Prolly up someone's ass or smth for it wasnt on my car. But then again, i nvr did stick any P stickers.

So they wanted to saman! Good! and they asked for my wallet. *ting* * runs to car* *looks inside car* *scratches head*

me : uhh, bang tarak wallet la.... tak bawa!

Good, then they continues naming what i did wrong plus since no P and no license or IC.. 2 samans! Bagus! Then jovi gave his IC and so did nicks..... i think it was just for sho' and that sonnuvab*tch walks to his vehicle and pretends to key in smth.

We both continued bickering actually no, the police and jovi continued bickering with the police kept on saying, "macam mana?" with jovi apologising and saying we were just students and that we got back from our friend's place.

Basket just kept smiling and asking, "macam mana?" Finally i think he thought we didnt get the hint when we just didnt wanna bribe his fucking ass to timbaktu. He points to me and said, "Saya tanya dia, macam mana skrang?" and added " kamu belanja la!" Money scheming bastard!

me : Har? bang tolong la.. pelajar je.

I murmured 20 bucks! i think he didnt see or hear it coz he still kept up with his, "Macam mana?" I stole a glance at nicks who also murmured 20 and it was set.

Me and nicks : Uhh bang, 20 puluh je la, 10 from dia( points to nicks) 10 from dia ( points to jovi).
Sonnuvab*tch : hmm... belanja la! Boleh la!

We then walked to the front and i took 20 from nicks. I think put in on my palm and with the handshake gesture gave the despo the RM20 and took back both nicks and jovi's IC.

Irony was, the was a sticker on the windscreen which rang, " DONT BRIBE ME!"

Goooooooooooooooood!

Flair...where art thou' ?

As I lay on my bed with arms spread across the covers, I shut my eyes and it was quiet. I would of fallen asleep as soon as I laid save not from the thought of something or someone. Everything was whizzing in which complicates things further, through all the clutter were some ideas and some just plain crap.

Then it hit me, the core idea for which I will base my article from. I had not known why’d I even promised wai fun to write one for me. I hv not the commitment to write one. Alas, a promise is a promise and I will present her an article worthy to be included in the sch mag.

Piece by unsorted piece appeared with the main idea remaining vague…still. But smaller and maybe supporting ideas were creeping in from timbaktu to papua. Lol, if only I had the patience to jot them down and go thru it all, my job would’ve been 70% done. I tried to stay on my bed, but the urge to type it out was overwhelming. I rose and dashed to the comp quickly running Word. I had gone 3 paragraphs when I paused and began reading what I typed.

It was good, it made sense and it sounded almost philosophical. But there was no cohesion. There weren’t any link where they should’ve meshed like clay. It was inconsistent, lines either being too long or too short and too direct. It was CRAP!

My flair for writing seems to be lost in the wilderness in thoughts of her, and failed to return even when I did. I hv to recover it, it’ll take some time but I hv to recover it! The thoughts of her are already making my fingers hesitant and only in her absence can I write an excellent article… and not merely good.

Confused

I quote Barton Blaze, “If you don’t make a choice, the choice chooses you.” Making decisions is a part of our everyday life, from what we choose to eat to when we choose to shit. What we choose to do and what we chose not to. It might come easy, it might be hard but nevertheless you still have to decide when the time is right.

In hindsight, I’ve always known what I’ve wanted and what I need to do to achieve it. Altho, there are times which even if I knew what and how, I just wont. It might be due to my laziness or prolly my foolishness but it was still a decision.

To choose between a and b is quite the different from b and c for each possess different prospects and brings about changes that are surely gonna be different. It might sweep me off my feet or it could tie me down like a house or maybe it wont bring about any changes but only her presence which is more than enough.

Now, “the shield’s heavy and makes his movement wobbly, his helmet suffocating and blocks his view”( I quote the narrator of 300 XD). But unlike leonidas, I kept both my shield and my helmet on which might prove to be a bad decision but it is a decision after all.

Absence

I reason my absence with my lack of initiative to go & purchase a new modem after the old one got struck by lightning. The 1st 2 days were for finger pointing and pushing the blame which i no doubt won since i wasnt even at home that fateful day. It was all you bro.

Then came the time of arguing over who should pay for it and why. Since it was his fault, i very well aint gonna pay jacksh*t. The last 2 modems came out from my own pocket and it's already too much.

So here i am, back from the wilderness!!

Monthly test

The postponement of sports day was the ultimate ‘stim-cutter’ as all the events was done and finished and all that was left was tug-o-war and the announcing of the results. It prolly should be next fri – the date to resume- for monthly test starts tmrw and lasts till thurs.

I am neither ready nor do I hv the heart to take on this test. For the past weeks were a beehive of activity preparing for sports day. Chai and I both committed too much time and effort to sports and for it we sacrificed our studies for this period of time.

Being frank with my mom has always been easy for me. I told her straight up that I’ll flunk this test. She could only manage a sigh and then began rattling off a chain of advice + nag in which my only reply was “….”
It’s not that I did not want to study, it’s just that I seem to prioritize the wrong thing. However, sports day is over and ill hv no excuse to not focus on my studies. Nevertheless, I recognize 2 speed bumps ahead: Treasure hunt and Campfire ’07. All in all, I gotta keep my head above water and prioritize the things that need more attention. After all, it’s my future that im sinking in with now.

Hell 'hath no fury like a woman's scorn!!!

Progress was slow today; the ferris wheel didn’t turn out to be as grand and nice as it was meant to be and we haven’t even start on the ‘tandu’. Altho we stayed till 8 yet not much was accomplished.

Highlights : We sprayed green colour onto rolled up papers and smart as john chai was he refused to put newspapers on the ground b4 spraying. When Pn. Darlilah came, she threatened to send us to bilik semang. Ketara bangga being promoted to head of Sci & maths. With great power comes greater responsibility and now she is responsible over the drain too! How nice!!

Since chai and I were both having ants on our asses, we took the spray can and sprayed P T on pei theng’s car. I then called her out to show her the great art work. Woah…. Hell hath no fury like a woman’s scorn! Her stare seems to pierce thru the eyes and she was pissy. No, VERY PISSED! She has one of those looks which blares out “look im having menstrual pains so im fucking pissy now, messy with me and I’ll spew my juice all over u!” Scary!!!

She didn’t talk nor even look at me and chai for 10-20 mins so I think u understand how grave the situation was. But she was okay after that and started laughing again. Phew...

- End –


Tmrw’s gonna be a long day. Since there’s so much left to do, we are planning to stay till we finish em all. Hopefully I don’t have to stay till after 10… I need my SLEEP!
