The Campfire I Never Had (Or Did I?)

Year 2008, aka the year of new sec 1's and another campfire! Yahoo! I can gate-crash! HEHEHEHEHEHEHE! Also, Kevin (4??) allowed me to be the photographer! TEACHERS BEWARE! MY CAREER AS A PAPARAZZI IS NOT OVER YET! Muhahahahaha! But, alas! No one to paparazzi!

"Teachers! You are one cool cat! You got a little bit of this and a whole lot of that!"
Try:
"Teachers! You are one scandalous cat! You got a little bit of this and a whole lot of gossip!"

I sooo wanted to go on stage and say something to the mircophone. But Kevin YeO (202), different kevin from before, stopped me. Darn! Oh there where times PSL had to do stuff yet I joined in.

So that's how it feels to be a PSL. YAY!
Behind the scenes were fun many times. I was there at 5? What was I thinking? No matter! It was cool, although the akon album on repeat. *Yawn!*
I, being the musical number judger myself, felt the songs were *^#$@. Since it is too vulgar for me to say, I'll sing it.
(In the tune of Empty by The Click 5)
Maybe their trying
trying in vain
to get new songs
but they failed
maybe when I'm
a PSLllll
I'll change 'em.
I went home so tired, I took a bath and slept almost immediately! That explains why I'm blogging on Monday! I asked myself: DID YOU HAVE THAT MUCH FUN IN A LONG TIME?
Let's grade the campfire!
Behind the scenes: 8/10

Last words: Sure beats raining! FUN! WHEEEE! YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH!

Song Of The Week

It may be a bit old but to me it is still good. "Empty" by The Click Five is the song choice for the week. I dont know what attracted me to it. Maybe it is the phrase "maybe we are trying, trying too hard" but it is a great song to note and hear. Like last year the song lyrics and video would be here


Empty Lyrics

Tried to take a picture Of love
Didn't think I'd miss her
That much
I want to fill this new frame
But its empty
Tried to write a letter
In ink
Its been getting better
I think
I got a piece of paper
But its empty
Its empty
Maybe we're trying
Trying too hard
Maybe we're torn apart
Maybe the timing
Is beating our hearts
We're empty
And I've even wondered
If we
Should be getting under
These sheets
We could lie in this bed
But its empty
Its empty

Maybe we're trying
Trying too hard
Maybe we're torn apart
Maybe the timing
Is beating our hearts
We're empty
Oh ohOh ohOoooohOh ohOh oh
Maybe we're trying
Trying too hard
Maybe we're torn apart
Maybe the timing Is beating our hearts
We're empty
We're empty
We're empty

Although the new year has past...

New Year, same old me! Looking around for blog inspiration and did not blog for a very long time. Promise I will continue.

"School Work" Problems Teenagers Face





There are many problems that teenagers face these days. They are peer pressure, crime and drugs.

Peer pressure is a term describing a person's changes, or temptations to change, in attitude, behavior and morals as directly influenced by their peer group.
It is particularly common because most youths are forced to spend large amounts of time in fixed groups regardless of their opinion of those groups. Also, young people are more willing to behave negatively towards those who are not members of their groups such as teasing and bullying, whereas adult maturity generally precludes this type of behaviour being overtly performed. Peer pressure is also considered by many to be the root cause of several recent tragedies involving young people. Here is an example of peer pressure. If someone in the class was something special or expensive, it will force their classmates to have something of an equal or higher value (either in money or how special the item is). Even if one has something cheap yet useful, that person would want to spend money one something of equal use yet higher cost. This may lead to spending a lot of money one a white elephant. If one fails to do so because of one reason or another, that person will feel pressurised. She/ he will not be able to compare with their friends. This may cause teasing and bullying. If that person has not enough money, he/she will result to my next two points, crime and drugs.

Crime is violation of the law. There are many kinds of crime such as murder and kidnapping but I will focus on robbing and stealing. After robbery and stealing, one will obtain something valuable, usually money. Teenagers who fail to obtain expensive items result to stealing or robbery. They want the money to buy the expensive product to compare with their friends. However, if they get caught, they will be send to prison and they will be have a horrible record on their lives.

Another path is drugs. If the teen is unable to get something to compare with their friends, they may go into depression. When they are in depression, they think that taking drugs or tobacco smoking will be a form of relieve. Eventually, they will be hooked on drugs and spend all their money on drugs. Selling drugs would be an easy way for most teenagers to make money. However, they fail to realise that it is a criminal offence and they can be jailed once caught.

The three point are a domino effect, one will lead to another. So, to sum up all the three points, I will use an example. Let's say we have a teenager named Bob. Bob is not very rich but is not very poor either. His classmate has the latest handphone model and that phone has many good features. Bob's handphone is a simple phone with not many features. His classmate teased him for having a lousy phone model so he asked his parents to get a new phone. However, his parents refuse. So, Bob results to crime to solve his problem. He sells drugs, rob and steal money from people. When he gets caught, he is send to prison and when he wants to go to university, the principal may think twice in accepting him due to that criminal record.

Please Note that any post entitled "School Work" is for my teachers to grade. You can read it but please don't commend. Thank You.
