Talking bulls.

It's interesting how I often hear Sir David Attenborough going "but this ... can be never more ...... than, take for example, this particular species in Borneo".

Yeah, I do take pride in coming from the third largest island in the world, where many rare and endangered species thrive in some of the world's best tropical rainforest.


Hey, news just in from cnnbrk on Twitter (yes, I do follow the news sometimes. Literally), and it says that the first same-sex marriages have been held in the District of Columbia. Congratulations to all the couples, 'cause they've definitely been waiting ages for the law legalising same-sex marriage to be passed.

Now it's all over the news, people complaining, arguing, debating. Take a chill pill, people. It's no big deal. People get married all the time. Nothing wrong with that. Homosexuals marry for the same reasons heterosexuals do. Love, happiness, being together. Duhh. And because they've fought harder than straight people (who probably take marriage for granted and screw it up sometime) for the right to marry, they'll actually put in an effort to maintain the relationship. Good for them, I say.


Anyway, I need to tell you guys something. And that something is this: E-learning is the most failed thing our school has ever come up with. Ever. (Turnstile excluded, because nothing can top that.)

It's awful.

Personally, in my opinion, on a highly personal scale, this has so far been a total waste of energy.

I think the teachers have been given a quota for the amount of work they give us, and they've fulfilled it nicely. The thing is, they're due roughly the same days, and awfully sudden. It's kinda intimidating. Like you look at the emails and notifications and have absolutely no idea which one to do first.

Been pretty (relatively) unproductive, but whatever. Probably going to stay up late tonight. No school tomorrow, after all (e-learning doesn't count. It's a whole new level of hell).

Managed to come up with some stuff for the Math thing on functions and our Physics projectile thing in the afternoon with Verena and John Huang (who has loads of interesting ideas).

Basically I would love to distract Mr Wong during the actual launching day, lob the golf ball over the barrier into the targeted are and pretend it came from our projectile launcher. I don't see why not. Sure sounds effective.


Played around the fitness corner with Fatinn later on in the night.


Gotta go now, 'cause if not, I honestly won't get anything done before e-learning is over.


P.S. 305 Physics forum is awesome. Bull is bullsh*tting. Tahi kerbau.

P.P.S. Chem forum is scary. Don't dare look at it. Maybe I'll be braver tomorrow. Also, I can't seem to come up with reasonable questions that aren't ridiculously stupid.
