Taking in a deep breath

And there goes another week of school! What a week. Although it's only been 4 days it seemed to have lasted for ages. Chemistry PEKA, Moral reports, anti-drugs crap and blackouts dragged and stretched every second of this past week like 拉面. So it's not a surprise that I'm more than happy to just pull my socks off, hang up my feet and enjoy a few moments rest at the end of the week (after washing my feet of course).

But heck, there's no escaping reality. Even without thinking of SPM there are still a million things to do. Ironically, the teachers flood us with so much work that we struggle to find the time to do revsion. Yes, homework is a form of revision, but... haiz.

At times I feel like just running away from it all. But there's not much that I can do to escape. The most that I can do is to put on my earphones and immerse myself in music. But the moment the melody winds down, the moment the last notes fade away, I find myself crashing back to the harshness of life...

Hang in there pals. Let's all get through this. Together.

This is still under construction...

...so please just bear with the basic layout for now. I'm still modifying it to better reflect my taste. You'll see more of that soon. Just hold on...

Evil eye?

Actually no, just red eye.

Or rather two red eyes.

It's only my second time ever getting conjunctivitis. And it's definitely not very fun when you get it in both eyes. One turned red on Sunday afternoon, the other on Monday morning, and by Tuesday I was sound asleep at home with a fever.

Neither was it fun to be away from school for 3 days. I've missed the Taylor's test for bookkeeping and missed 3 chemistry PEKA experiments among others. I wonder what Mrs. Chin's going to say about the missed PEKA.

*sigh*

But oh well, life goes on. And my sore eyes are giving me a glorious headache. Yeah, it's better than when i was walking around looking like a Left 4 Dead zombie, but I've still got a long way to go to full recovery. So I'll end my post here and go close my eyes then, hoping that maybe I'll wake up and see things clearer...

for everything to exist there must a beginning...

...therefore, this is the beginning of my new blog.

Hello, world.

It would be just a wee bit pointless if you read this blog not knowing who wrote it, so let me go through the formalities. I'm Adam Chin, going on 17 this year. Currently schooling at SM All Saints in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. That's all I will tell you. The basics are all on my Facebook and Friendster profiles. The not-so-basics you will find out in my future blogposts. After all, what else is a blog for?

Before I continue, let me make clear what you're going to find here. You won't find my autobiography. You won't find The Great Malaysian Novel. You won't find a window into my life. Instead, what you will find is an outlet for my emotions, thoughts and memories. You will find random ideas and points to think about, and most of all, you will find...

words.

Because words are all a man has to express himself.

And so the odyssey begins...
