The Story Of Walk?
Tony always wanted to join the army ever since he saw soldiers march past him during a parade he attended years ago.Today he is the day he will enlist at last.He marched up to the recruitment office and stormed into the office.The recruitment officer saw how he barged in and thought of him as courageous he was,at least what he thought.On the first day of training,during their morning drills,the squad had to hike 15 miles non-stop to the point their feet gave up.They all limped back to their barracks tired that night.Tony regretted joining the army and planned to sneak out.He tiptoed out the barracks and darted through the gates,never to return again.
Not too bad right?

School Life
My parents told me of a time where school was actually not as stressful as it stands now and was actually fun.There were not that many major exams and no stuff like KBAT Or HOTS to bug us everytime.Sure people might say "To move with the times" but I don't like it.
First off, the pressure that is coming off school affects your sanity and mental health.I've seen people who score A+ in their exams but come off sad and pressured.Just recently a girl commited suicide because of her exam results.She could not take the extreme pressure that is our education system.The situation of us Asians here with parents (Specifically moms or 'tiger moms')pressure their kids to become a doctor,lawyer.accountant.engineer and all that.Really takes the freedom of choice out of your life.You come to that crossroad where you have to choose to A)Follow your parent's wishes or B)Follow your own passion
Just like me,I really want to be a comic illustrator but of course my parents think otherwise and forbid me to do so under the reason it's a waste of time or 'there's no market for that here'.So I sit here on my laptop blogging my troubles away.My parents aspire for me to become one of those generic jobs that earn loads of money but lets be honest.I have no interest in Science(Alright maybe I do but not as much as my love for drawing) and maybe I took the pure Science stream in school because my parents pressured me to do so but really I just want to draw comics for a living or something related to that.
I remember the times I sit alone,feeling the pressure choke me slowly.I could cry from the pressure I face everyday if I could.Homework,tuitions,annoying siblings,where has the world gone too?
Then along comes another thorn in my side.KBAT and HOTS.These two education systems are here to 'promote the ability to think among students and to allow them to think out-of-the-box'.I don't believe one bit of that bull.The word 'out-of-the-box' means to think of something that nobody would expect.Yet,according to KBAT and HOTS,there are perimeters that need to be followed when answering.WHAT?!Sounds like they want us to think outside the box,but at the same time we are sealed in a larger box of limits.Sounds legit to me.
Another thing is that our Education System is in a state of confusion,going back on forth on the motion to use English or Bahasa Melayu as our main language of teaching young minds.No wonder my English marks always come out higher.The BM(Bahasa Melayu) exams are far more 'guided' than the English exam.What I mean is that the BM Exam,is extremely closed with word limits and such.While on the other hand,English exams are much more linient with word limits and wether this word can be used or not.
Let me give an example
BM Exam-There is a section of the exam,and I'm not kidding,worth 100 marks and you have to write an 8-10 page long essay,where each paragraph has to be a full page worth of words and must be done within 3 hours.
English Exam-Questions that are far easier and not as evil as the BM Exam.
You must feel bad for us students here now for sure.Maybe one day someone good will take over and change our whole system for the better
'This is the longest rant you've done so far.Wow'
Have not noticed.Too pissed and salty.
So thanks for reading this blog post and sorry if I got any fact wrong.Bye
Earth Day!
Earth Day,the day we appreciate our beloved,slowly dying,Earth.For this one day.we take this chance to oh I don't know,plant a tree or recycle or something but hey,it helps.The fact that Earth Day recieves less support than it should it rather shocking.I mean,we live on Earth right?Humans are the main species here am I right?But even we,the human,do not care for our planet.Some might say it's for the better part of the human race.Maybe,but not entirely true.We make our lives better by making another thing on this Earth suffer,remember that.We chop down trees to make houses,furniture,etc.We enslave animals and kill them or extort the for their meat,eggs,milk,which I'm not saying we must not but,on a humane point of view,it's sickening.
Then people blame nature for unavoidable events like tsunamis or volcanoes when we make things far worse than that.For example,the nuclear bomb,guns,factories,missiles,grenades,heck we might be worse than nature's wrath.Look at Pompeii now as an example.Yup,nothing but ash.
I'm not saying we're bad people,but we're bad people.But there are good souls out there who are trying to change the world.And now I am gonna extract this from an Earth Day site.
Earth Day 2016 asks for the central Ohio community to Branch Out! The goal is to plant 20,000 trees in addition to the many other projects planned annually. This goal is unattainable without more volunteers, more service sites and more donations than ever before. So stretch your limbs, dust off your shovels and invite your friends to Branch Out for Earth Day 2016.
See that?People are out there trying to make a difference and need YOUR help.But I'm sure you will say "Uhhh but I'm so lazy,let them do it on their own.What has Earth done for me?"
Ungrateful punk.Best you can at the least do is switch off all your electronics for an hour on Earth Day right?Or if some of us who live in the tropical El Nino deadly heatstroke of a country like Beautiful Malaysia,you'll think "Crazy,we'll die of heat before the hour is up'
Man up.You should be used to our extreme temperatures.
In conclusion,let's all do our part in saving our Earth and not let some other guy do it for us.Okay?Thanks

I missed a week?
Oh hi guys apparently I'm supposed to blog about something every week.And what better way to start of this week's by talking about my life?
So recently I've been busy with my games,e.g Deadpool, Hearthstone,Saints Row 4,pretty much any new game I got my hands on.You're next Diablo 3...
And another thing is that I have been trying my hand at comics again!*Yay*
Thank you Kai Lynn for inspiring me,literally with your Undertale comic.Thank you.
With everything set for this week,I can think of what to do next for the upcoming blog post!
And now a heart to heart.A big thanks to my English Teacher for how I must say 'forcing' us to start a blog and anyone who is reading this for just taking the time to read my blog posts!
Thanks!

Undertale
Undertale,the game that we all love for its solid characters,story and soundtracks,especially the genocide run.Today,I'm going to talk about my favourite of all characters,Sans the skeleton.
Younger brother to Papyrus,Sans is a lazy,big boned skeleton who has your best interests at heart.I mean,who took care of you after Toriel left you?It was Sans who looked after you throughout the game,and we all eventually learn to love this pun loving,ketchup drinking skeleton.
He promised Toriel to keep a watchful eye on you and even convinced his brother Papyrus that humans aren't that bad after all.If you've dug around enough, you will learn that Sans is super smart at science.
He loves taking breaks,that's why he has two jobs,so he can take twice the amount of breaks.
He is a great guy to be around because of his skeleton themed puns and admit it.He looks somewhat adorable.Everyone at Snowdin loves him.
Then along comes the genecide run where after killing his brother(if you chose this path) and pretty much every enemy you encounter, you'll fight him.
You might be thinking;
"How hard can this guy be?"
Simple.
Don't.
Mess
With
Him
He is the hardest enemy to fight in Undertale because of his almost unavoidable attacks and his bones attacking your action bar.It literally makes you regret killing all those monsters.
All in all,Sans tries his best (Maybe not really his best) to look after and take care of you.Let's all love Sans as the adorable skeleton he is
:)

The Wishing Well-An original composition
I am I'm the mood for a story today.
Sorry if it's sappy
The Wishing Well
I stand and the edge of the old well at the park,reminiscing about the past,just as I have for the past 3 years.The rain poured down on me,leaving me soaking wet.The sheer cold of the rain could never make me forget what happened to her.
3 years ago,I lost her.We were fighting over something,must have been something serious.I said words that I should never have said.In turn,she said she never wanted to see me again.
It was rainy that night.She stormed out of my car as she slammed the door.As I sat in the car,what I saw next made me regret not stopping her.Under the cover of the rain,the sound of sirens could be heard.
I heard it,but did not expect a red sports car,pursued by 3 police cars to speed around the corner.She could not react in time and was sent flying.My look of anger turned to a look of terror as she splat onto the merciless road and lay there bleeding.
I dashed out of the car and came to her side.Blood dripped from her head and flowed into the storm drain as I cradled her for what I knew was the final time.
"I'm sorry..." She said under her dying breath.
She was dead. I put her head around my arms and refused to let go as the paramedics came.I saw her body zipped in a bag and sent off.I could not bear to attend the funeral but I did.
Ever since that day,I spent wandering alone,drowning my spirits at the local bar every Tuesday night,just trying to remember what we argued about.
And now,3 years later I am still alone.My parents have told me to let go countless of times but I just could not.Tossing a quarter into the well,I wished;
"I want a second chance with you.Please come back"
I leaned over the edge and saw the quarter fall into the well.There is was no point lingering here much longer.As I walk off I bumped into someone.I took a long stare as I realised who it was.
It was her,staring back at me.As I reach out my hand to help her up,I whispered to her;
"I won't lose you again,I promise"
The End
Well...that's it I guess.I just felt like posting a sad story for some reason.No this never happened to me.The story just wrote itself in my head and stayed there.
Well bye

Facebook's Cancer
"Comment Amen for this child"
"Share or a ghost kills you"
"Like for a girl,ignore for the devil"
And the list goes on....
Don't we all hate it? Facebook has gone extremely cancerous and we all accept it.
Lots of us hate this but don't do anything about it. It's the mere fact it's here makes it so annoying
"Like for Jesus,Ignore for Satan"
If people could stop spreading religious things on Facebook,I would be so happy.I'm sure you would too.Yet nobody is doing anything about it.
Remember the time when Facebook was used to communicate and play games with friends?That time has passed.Now is the time of cancer.There should be a law against this.
These things become cancerous due to the fact they are over shared and extremely annoying.
A friend's said,and I quote
"I lose 15 IQ points after 5 minutes on Facebook"
What do you think about this issue?
See you next time
