Course not. Even if I did forget what I tried to put, I'd probably put a bunch of gibberish here, which is maybe..what I'm gonna do now LOL.
I'm not really a fan of putting lyrics in what I post, but I understand if people do, cause sometimes it just represents what they were feeling at the moment.
You know, I do find song interpretation very interesting, not only does it makes the song more meaningful, it also tells you whether to throw the album into the trash, keep it in a dusty drawer or worship it in your CD player. Yeah, certain songs have very nice long, meaningful, beautiful lyrics. But OBVIOUSLY I ain't asking you to interpret what 'disco stick' means :D
Yes, sorry Lady Gaga, but I think we all know how much you love disco sticks..why'd u even call them disco sticks? Is it that they're only found in discos, or colourful? I don't think I might wanna continue on the more detailed specifications of this 'stick'. Ahem. Okay...that was lame and perverse..who cares? :P
.........
Welcome fellow students to Song Interpretation 101! I'm your teacher today and I shall present some very interesting specimens of song lyrics and their interpretation!!!
Example 1:
Fray the strings
Throw the shapes
Hold your breath
Listen!
I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
BEFORE I FORGET THAT!
Interpretation: Uhm....Charles Darwin's theory of evolution!! And he's struggling to remember it?
Example 2:
In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your
knees, knees
I wanna watch you bleed
Interpretation: Tarzan must've have had some really sore knees before he knew how to swing.
Example 3:
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Interpretation: Pretty straightforward..he's getting some amps that can actually blow your brain off.
Example 4:
Mama, we all go to hell.
Mama, we all go to hell.
I'm writing this letter and wishing you well,
Mama, we all go to hell.
Oh, well, now,
Mama, we're all gonna die.
Mama, we're all gonna die.
Stop asking me questions, I'd hate to see you cry,
Mama, we're all gonna die.
Interpretation: He loves his mama very much. Too much, in fact. Mama's Boy.
Example 5:
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
in the wind of change
Interpretation: Now this is a very beautiful, beautiful song..I really love it.
Example 6:
When we start killing
It's all coming down right now
From the nightmare we've created
I want to be awakened somehow
When we start killing it all will be falling down
From the Hell that we're in
All we are is fading away
When we start killing...
When we start killing...
When we start killing...
Interpretation: Stop killing chickens. Hell ain't good for yer health.
Example (I forgot the number so whatever):
Let's have some fun,
This beat is sick
I wanna take a ride on your disco stick
Interpretation: 0.0 wait a sec...wasn't this already resolved?
NEXT!!!!:
That I am stricken and can't let you go
When the heart is cold, there's no hope, and we know
That I am crippled by all that you've done
Into the abyss will I run
Interpretation: The most beautiful love song I've ever heard. Not.
>>>>:
I need you Aquarius,
enchanted I will have to stay.
I feel you Aquarius,
cause you the sea set me free.
You call to me Aquarius.
You call to me, you set me free.
Interpretation: Oh yes, yes. bow to me!!!! Heheeee...(I'm Aquarian btw) xD
Next:
Even flow, thoughts arrive like butterflies
Oh, he dont know, so he chases them away, yeah...ooh...
Oh, someday yet, he'll begin his life again...life again...life again...
Interpretation: How poets do their job. By rebirthing. Baby poets. Not cool.
Class dismissed. You all get E- for not seeing things the way I do. Now get out of my face.
:P.
I Started This Out With a Forgotten Point
Lie With Me
By now obviously the joke of me typing blooger would be lame and so cliched. I know. I just couldn't help doing it.
Yes my dear readers, I haven't been talking here lately.
My poor computer broke down.
My fingers hurt.
I had constipation.
I was er...buzy?
I was bunnymooning (LMAO)
Mozilla had a problem.
I was banned from using the computer.
If you believed my reasons were of one the excuses above, then thank you so, so, so much. But I cannot lie to my fellow gullible readers that I was being plain lazy to type and blog here. Think of the time where I was just sitting here in front of the computer, scratching my head on what to think and write to all of you.
Oh well, I would never ever want to witness a funeral, least of all likely the death of my precious, precious little blog, so here I go...
Anyone who's been in my class before my seen some of the 'crazy' times I have in the classroom.
Yeah, sometimes people gotta have some fun too. Then those nuts in class get all with them weird looks and start asking:
"I think Marc study too much already"
"Marc sit in class too much until become crazy already"
Please. If I wanna go on some psychotic rampage after studying , you guys would be crying out right now. I'm serious. Lol.
People get this stupid misconception that I'm nerdy just because I perform quite okay in my studies. Well screw you, I have a nice motto for all of you:
"I work hard, but play even HARDER"
Please don't take that motto in a wrong sense, I know exactly where it could very well go wrong xD. Over the times, I have stumbled upon many, many quotes, not by reading, but you know when sometimes a good quote pops up you can't help but just look at it and be totally absorced by how the person who made it up could put it in such a brilliant way. Guess humans aren't so stupid after all. Lol.
Sorry guys, I know I haven't been social lately, especially to a certain gelatinous dessert, but please bear with me, you're still my favourite mouth-washer after a meal (mouth-washer = dessert, not Listerine). I just have to find some time..yes, I've been gaming, I cannot deny it, but that doesn't mean friends aren't important to me, especially those I get to see only via MSN.
Over the while I've seen things, and time and time again experience shows me weird people. (boy, this sounds like an extract from a poem). Weird people. Okay, define weird. Weird has so many definitions. Weird in what way? Well, weird in a sense that people are not being themselves. J that day showed me a very brilliant website about 'Ah Lians' which I find to be scarily true yet hilarious. Come on, you have seen those types of people in real life, and what the Japanese/Korean pop culture has done to them. Imitating those orients pretty makes the imitators look like nutheads ( I'm being discreet on bad words) xD.
Trust me, there is no one you can be in real life other than yourself. I bet you've heard that all the time, and it's true!! It's definitely alright to idolise somebody else, but not to the extent you BECOME that person himself. Now that's just creepy. I remember one very famous guy in history (damn I just can remember), he said:
"When you compare yourself to another, you are insulting yourself"
--I don't want to talk about Ah Lians here, but if they think that acting cute and all actually attracts boys, well, think again. Maybe they do. Only dumb ones.
So just be yourself, because everyone would want to be loved for who they are.
"It is not who you are that is preventing you from doing something, but who you think you are not that is"
Sigh..I'm sorry for being so quoty, i try my best to just tell you stuff..
Oh, you might wonder what's with my title. Yeah, I don't fancy lying, I prefer to do bluffs, or rather what I call sarcastic bluffs. Like uhmm..lets take a rabbit for instance, someone asks me, "What's that?" and I'll answer "That's a horse".
Thanks for reading this post, which of course, was just a whole lie.
Joking...or am I?
Maybe I'm lying about the joke about the lie in which I lied..
So what's the truth?
My lie :P.

Unholy Touch
I did it again; www.blooger.com. =.=
It's been quite a while since I realised how fun being in a boys school was. I know, the question on whether a same gender school or a co-ed school is better has been a very popular debate topic (and one which is known to always go nowhere). But yeah, speaking from someone who has been in both, maybe my judging will be a lot more rational.
Guys (or girls) might tell me that co-ed is better. Why? The relationships, etc, etc. True, you might have the opposite gender to chase around, that's why i ALWAYS stress on perspective. I don't think that way. I'd rather not burden myself over whether this girl like me, whether she has a crush on me, whether I should make a move. I know better. Anyway, back to same gender schools, if I could describe it in one word it would be: Fun. Real fun in a crazy way. I daresay more crazy than in a pure girl school. I've always asked, what happens if you get to a school full of testosterone?
And that's where I link it to the topic. This ain't no essay, but yeah. In a boy's school, it's very unholy there. LOL. In a dirty way.
You can't pass a day where there are non-obscenities in class, either it's just plain crude language or obscenities. But why? I can say because well, it's all dudes. Welcome to reality at a boy's school. What 'foul' thing you do can be understood, because they're boys too. Do some stupid thing, and instead of being given glares and stares, the whole class starts blurting out in laughter or either some idiot will yell some retort at you. Tell one a dirty thing, get one in return xD
You wouldn't want to know what I call my buds in school. Very naughty stuff.
But come on, it's all play. I'm not sure about you, but a lot of jokes are actually dirty, obscene ones. But here's the misconception: we are dirty minded.
Dirty minded? More like open minded! Okay, so we talk a deal about sexuality. Who doesn't? It's part and parcel of growing up. But we don't talk about DOING it, no, we make stupid jokes. Like what I like to threaten my friends with...example: "Sweep the class or not you will be less endowed by 1 cm (an altered clean version of what I say)"
By nature we teenagers are growing up, hence we tend to turn to more dirty jokes. Naughty stuff. Those who don't, well, maybe you haven't grown up. To me this is all a phase where teenagers go through. But there must be limits. Of course! I ALWAYS HAVE A LIMIT. I don't go simply tell other people about dirty stuff. Yes, because it might be disrespectful.
Respect for others. Yes, that's my limit. Okay, I have to admit. I'm a little dirty minded, but nobody's a clean slate. But you can't expect everyone to be so innocent. Yes, many people would find it very offending to be dirty, That's the norma of society. That's why I limit this open-mindedness to people to whom I can trust has that equal amount of crazyness and open-mindedness as me. When I wanna talk fun trash, I know who I can talk to. That's why to some people when i get excited I don't talk those stuff. Either the fact I'm afraid that you will be offended by what I say, or maybe you're just the opposite gender, and you will not understand my crazyness in this matter. It's awkward to say those stuff to girls as jokes. On a light note, yeah. It's not that I don't trust my friends who are girls with this open-mindedness, it's just I know it will be inappropriate to speak of those stuff to you, and I'm being more of a normal person to you. I can be serious, but everyone has a wild wacky, dirty side to them, its just how people express it.
In the end, I keep my dirtyness to my buds and myself..I'm not dirty minded to the extent of everything I do relates to it. There's a fine line between saying and doing. And in reality I just play along with the fact that people make jokes about them, please don't think of me as a corrupted soul, I'm just like you after all.

As Promised
This is the hardest song on GH3, on medium:
Through The Fire and Flames - Dragonforce
I got 89% only, 3 stars T.T Mind the flashes though, hope you don't get seizures :S
Yes, it is amazingly hard to get perfect timing..but it can be said that I can fully play medium, so I moved on to the next level, Hard.
Hard is VERY much different compared to medium. The charts are a lot more complicated, you have to use 5 BUTTONS and of course, the hammer-ons. I'll explain later. I'll show you how hard is, here is the same song as earlier, Stricken by Disturbed, only this time in Hard. It'll show you the differences between Medium and Hard. Sorry bout the crappy volume, blast any more and my mum will kill me.
And this song, whenever i try playing it, always makes me cry...you'll know why:
This'll be the last of the videos..I havent been blogging lately, have been playing most of the time. It's not that I don't wanna blog, it's just the appeal was not there then..maybe now I find some interesting stuff I wanna talk about.
There's nothing much to talk about school..every day I ride school via train back and forth..only thing interesting is that I freaking sleep there. Yes, I sleep there. Sometimes things could get a bit embarassing. Why? Well, sometimes when you sleep upright, your head swings from left to right. Many times I had my head tilted only to quickly upright it again LOL. Lucky I didnt hit the person next to me with my head, even so, the action of drooping my head suddenly must have gave them a scare :D. Most of the times I sleep at the part of the seat where there is a partition beside me. So when I sleep upright, a lot of times my head banged on the partition. I can't remember my head ever drooping there, god knows why it happened. At least that isn't THAT embarassing,,I've seen people sleep in the train with their mouths completely open! A super looper right in the mouth just nice for some flies to enter. I haven't seen anyone snore in the train, though. Once I was going back with my friend. I fell asleep. Only did I know today he took a pic of me sleeping. =.= I deleted it A.S.A.P when I got hold of his phone. Please, there is nothing worth watching in seeing me sleep..Maybe I might just get up and smack somebody, and I'll blame the fact that I'm sleepwalking.
The exam that just ended, to me, was utter rubbish. Another lousy monthly exam planted by my oh-so-apek Headmaster who loves exams so much. Cut us some slack, man. The exams were crap because each paper wasn't the full paper, it was barely half the paper. Could you imagine the number of questions? Take English for example. It only had comprehension and summary. Total marks? 25. One mistake led to a deduction of marks. What a piece of crap. And it's SUBJECTIVE writing, no one could get a perfect 100/100. Plus, you know how the marking scheme is. Overly rigid. That's the problem with the English in Malaysia. They don't allow leniency in language. Another rubbish point. That's the problem with the English in M'sia. Not only English, other subjects too. Too freaking stiff. Stiff until people think stiffly. People lack creativity in thinking SO much these days.
I ask people on how to draw a square with three lines, they can't do it. See?! Not creative at all! How much dirt is there in a hole of dimension 2x2x2, they tell me 8. Is there any dirt in a hole??
Anyway, for English i got a freaking 68. And I was pissed at what a crappy paper it was. So I managed to fight for 4 marks, only to have it taken away. My friend who had the same point with me but didn't get correct complained to teacher. The teacher said I might be wrong too. The first friend, knowing it might cost me wrong, kept mum but some OTHER idiot friend went and told teacher so openly, 'Teacher, Marc got wrong', then snatched the paper from me and showed it to teacher, and thus, she marked me wrong. I was furious, pissed, on fire, all of the above, etc, etc. I left the place, went back to my seat, not without a mini-kick to the chair on the way. Using my anger management skills, i cooled myself down. No argument, no name calling. I just made myself calm. But still, I was so sore. It's not like he was doing for the greater good, no, that idiot made it as though he purposely did it to 'kenakan' me, to hit me at a point. He's always like that.
I know I should be honest. Yes. That's why I'm not angry at him. Initially I was. But then, no. It's not that I was gonna lie and hide I got wrong. You have to trust me when that teacher said I might be wrong, I was scared. Scared of being wrong. The first friend had turned discreet. But I know I should get the wrong and let him be correct, the first friend be correct. But when someone else comes in and makes you get wrong with the intention of wanting to make you wrong, you cannot help to feel a volcanic rage. I forgave him in like 5 mins. Because I realised that without him, maybe I wouldn't have been corrected. I'd rather be honest. Let me get the wrong. I never lie when it comes to exams.
Why am I so much like this? Well, I'm not over-competitive, but I have a rival in class, and usually we compete in class. The English paper was quite a crucial paper.
Till the next time

Enough With The Heavy
Yes, my blog all ain't all about doom and gloom, so I've decided to show you what I've been over the weekend. It's my hobby game. You guess it out.
Think...
Think...
Think...
Any answer yet?
Look at my Facebook picture, silly!
Yeah, Guitar Hero. I can't seem to get enough of that game. I know, people might say 'play the real thing, asshole', but I don't give a donkey's ass. The game's real cool and how many of you actually get to play electric guitar? I know this game is a mere unreal simulation but hey, it's the experience of playing your fav rock songs that count. :P
I'' just show you a bit of what I play on the normal charts. TURN UP THE VOLUME TO HEAR THE SONG. It's Stricken by Disturbed.
I got 99% on this..sorry bout the quality..apparently my phone's all i have
Next time..I'll show you how I tackle the hardest song on GH3, on medium of course xD

The Hardest Lesson
I haven't been blogging lately. I did tell you I would when there was something worth blogging. Well, here it is:
There are words that make us
shudder, wince;
Wormwood,persimmon,
Alum, quince.
There are words that soothe,
tranquilize;
Slumbering, rainbows,
Butterflies.
There are words that tighten,
Words that roll;
Tension, turmoil,
Chaos, spoil.
There are words that shimmer,
beguile;
Stars, ships,
Firelight, smile.
And of course,
Words that make our lives full;
Peace, love,
Home, beautiful
Good morning to the panel of distinguished judges, teachers and fellow friends. My speech today is entitled 'Words, Words and Words'. Marvellous aren’t they, words? Such a beautiful instrument that we can experience- hold a second. How is it that you know what my words meant? Ah, yes. With words you are able to understand what my point is, and not some random thought, though I'm sure you wouldn't want to know what I was thinking like, what’s for lunch? Fellow audience, you might ask, what is the reason I speak of words? Nathaniel Hawthorne once spoke of how potent words are for good and evil. Yes, for evil. We all know that words could cut, hence are we all murderers? I confess, I myself am a murderer too. I’m a downright smooth criminal- with words. Isn't it just exciting to use that fantastic, flamboyant, furious, flaming F-word? Very naughty, but is it that fun? Gone were the days when insults had class with words- glorious insults before the English language got boiled down to four-letter words. Who then could truly be a man of words? Ask me and I’ll tell you Winston Churchill, the famous Prime Minister of England during the World War 2. Why? Let’s take a look of an exchange between Winston Churchill and Lady Astor. She told him, "If you were my husband, I'd give you poison" He replied, "If you were my wife, I'd drink it". Don't you see? With a mere clever manipulation of words and wit, you can turn the whole tide of the conversation around Words also give you that extra edge over your speech, what we call ‘the cheek’. Just like what Oscar Wilde said, “Some people spread happiness WHEREVER they go, some, WHENEVER they go”. So, watch what you say, because I will make you eat your words. Fellow audience, when you have the power of an atomic bomb, you have a history worth knowing, Words originated when the Anglo-Saxons spread their Germanic language all over Northern Europe, followed by the Norse invaders, or what we call ‘Vikings’, who spread their own influences into the language. Words might have been used by invaders, but that doesn’t mean we’re invaders right? We’re the killers, remember? Anyway, thanks to an event called The Great Vowel Shift, words were made to pronounce the way they are, no sticky stacky words, just plain, A, E, I, O, U. The progress of words. Flowing with the modern era we are expected to advance with words but now, things just keep getting shorter and shorter. Ladies and gentlemen we are introduced to something called SMSes, which are text messages comprising words, symbols and numerals all combined into one. SMSes have been a scarily popular trend. I was in a daze to discover that my grandmother was an expert at using text messages. Could you imagine that? Often we can hear teachers nagging at students at how a massive complex word could be shortened to like, what say you, two or three acronyms? Acronyms such as 'MYOB' or 'GTH'. 'MYOB' stands for 'Mind your own beeswax!', while 'GTH' stands for 'Go to..heaven' Or is it the other way round? Isn't this all a paradox of society? In modern life we can send people to the moon, we have so many developments in science and technology, yet we still see people using short forms, symbols, squiggles and hieroglyphics in our everyday words! What, and I repeat what is communication technology coming to?
Consequentially, we should learn to love and treasure our words. Remember that atavism is not progress and reverting to an archaic form of writing is not supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. Let us embrace the power of words. A careless word may kindle strife, a cruel word may wreck one’s life. A timely word may level stress, a loving word may heal and bless. P and P on that. No, it’s not a new acronym, it’s called, Pause..and Ponder. Thank you.
There are just so much things in my mind I have right now..I don't think it's appropriate I put it now, please don't ask me to. I just feel sad, disappointed, down and very dissatisfied that I didn't make it to nationals.
In the end, I keep telling myself this quote from The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button (not sure if it's exactly like in the movie):
"You may be as mad as the dogs at what happened, and you might curse the fates at all you've been through, but in the end, you have to let it go"
