like the lamb handing a knife to the butcher

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close (novel by Johnathan Safran Foer)
Anyone who believes that a second is faster than a decade did not live my life.

How true, how true. Time has been passing really fast lately, huh? Just yesterday evening I realised that school's coming in less than two weeks!! What have I been doing this entire time?
Oh yeah, that's right. The same repetitive pattern I share with everyone else everyday; the pattern that everyone follows during holidays:
1. Wake up late
2. Eat less meals
3. Eat more snacks
4. Tell yourself you'll exercise everything off tomorrow
5. Spend hours fulfilling kill-time interests (surf the net, read a book, play console games, cyber-socialise)
6. Sleep late
1. Wake up late

Obviously, on the odd occasion you have a gathering, whether it be an indoor party or an outing, maybe once a week? But seriously thinking, how much have you accomplished in the holidays?
1. Read more books
2. Learnt how to play Mahjong
3. Bought the UP DVD
4. Saw a lot of movies
5. Studied some trig with my brother

If i had a sixth one, I could say I accomplished something every week on average, but I don't.
Actually, I do.
6. Made birthday cards for Jessica and Ying Ying (26th January- Australia Day in case you're wondering)
And another:
7. Remained a constant 45kg ever since I started dieting after New Year's (I plan to go down to 43)
8. Hopefully will soon open an account with NAB isaver, which looks extremely good: 4 fixed months of at least 5.15%. pure awesumness.

Okay well, I guess my holidays haven't been completely pointless.

So, back to the topic of school. A lot of things to look forward to.
1. Year ten means we're not in the junior half of the school yet, whilst still having enough room in the pants for some lax.
2. Movies, movies, movies. Valentine's Day, Alice in Wonderland, Iron Man 2 (in order of course)
3. Scuba camp
4. Work experience week (maybe I should try and ask Max Brenner?)
5. Formal

Hiatus.
This word sounds so awesum. It sounds like a word that is some name for a top secret mission, or a heist or something, maybe because they're kind of spelt the same.
I was disappointed when I learnt that the word simply means a break, interruption, or gap. For example, our conversation's hiatus ended when I returned from the kitchen. Yeah, it sounds so much cooler than it means.

Back in 2008, I looked at A LOT of reviews on The Dark Knight, just for curiosity's sake. I came across this review, and i thought to myself: This has got to be the stupidest movie review in the entire world. Then I looked at the other movie reviews on the website and then I thought: No wait, I'm wrong, this has got to be the stupidest movie reviewer in the entire world. I don't know why but I suddenly remembered her again today, so I went and checked out her website and gosh, her reviews on Sherlock Holmes and Avatar are just ludicrous!!! Like seriously...read for yourself. arghhhh It's no wonder she's a blonde. Gosh i hope she's drop dead gorgeous otherwise she's not gonna get anywhere in this world.

Anyway, something that made me LOL instead of cringe: some article on ninemsn news that was like:
"Quiz: Boobs or Butt Crack?
With Hollywood revealing so much flesh these days, it's hard to tell which cleavage comes from where."
LOL. It's true though. Sometimes it's so blatantly obvious (tautology) that women are wearing excruciatingly tight dresses that fully squeeze their boobs out. *sigh* The world's gone crazy.

The Lord is a shelter for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble. Psalm 9:9

The Book Thief (novel by Markus Zusak)
If they killed him tonight, at least he would die alive.

Everything was good. but it was awful, too.

That would be like the lamb handing a knife to the butcher.
