A piece of composition I did for English, just got it back recently with a score of 19/30. So I thought I would share it with you guys as this should be one of the best piece I've done so far in my Secondary School years. Enjoy :)
---
The high-pitched screech of Cousin Tina echoed through the hallway as she peered through the window panes of the house. The unwed mother had unceremoniously barged into my house once again to ask for a favour of me to take care of her four-year-old son, Jonas, while she went on a date with her new boyfriend.
Once every while, God sent you a raging tempest, amid the unruffled calms in life and Jonas was such a tempest. I had not the slightest doubt that the little menace will turn the house upside down. But being a helpless, feeble-minded teenager, I stood no chance against the loud-mouthed Cousin Tina.
I gave her a frown as she blabbered those scripted lines as to why she had to put Jonas in my care. Before leaving, Cousin Tina "received" a call from her boyfriend and scurried off immediately. I guessed she did not realise that she was holding her phone upside down as she was too busy acting out her rehearsed lines.
I let out a huge sigh and turned to look at the petulant child, just to find him already missing. Suddenly, I heard a bawl of the century from my room that threatened to bring the roof down. I rushed in quickly, only to see the little brat screaming at the top of his lungs while smashing my three-year-old Yamaha FG423s acoustic guitar hard on the ground, mimicking a rock concert video playing in my laptop.
"Jonas, stop it before I give you a tight slap!" I bellowed as I snatched the severly damaged guitar away from the tiny hands of his. It really amazed me how such a little fellow could bring about such havoc?
With eyes that seemed to pop up somewhat shockingly, not unlike that of a goldfish, Jonas stared hard at me and stormed off the room in a huff. If looks could kill, I would probably ended up dead with that death glare he shot at me.
I bent down and attempted to clear the mess that the little rascal made. The room for awhile, without Jonas in it, was in a total silence but afraid of what sort of trouble he might create next, I left the mess unattended and decided to give chase to Jonas.
Just as I reached the exit of my room, I tripped over some toys lying on the ground. Time seemed to slow down after that and I could hear each beat of my heart vividly, like on "The Matrix" as I fell flat face down, on the hard parquet floor and broke my two front teeth. There was blood everywhere and I could not find my two teeth, only to hear that loathesome little brat chuckling out loud. Little needed to be said as to what my wishes for the coming Christmas. The little rascal was so going to pay for it.
I picked myself up and went to the bathroom, mouth still dripping blood. I could only blame myself for not rejecting babysitting this menace.
"I'm sorry Xuan Xuan jie jie," Jonas said in a scratchy voice as he tugged my pants gently with his stubby little fingers. He resembled an angel with his innocent looking face. If only he was really an angel, things could have been different, I thought. Being the soft hearted person that I was, I decided to give the child another chance and cook him lunch.
"Now, be good and don't touch anything dangerous in the kitchen," I warned him while settling him down on the chair. Jonas nodded and sat there quietly.
Just when I thought things would be fine from then on, hell was unleashed again for the third time round as that little devil simple refused to learn from the mistakes and be good. Jonas had repeatedly asked for a can of tuna fish for lunch, which I refused to give in to him. That little tyrant glared at me, arms across chest, as if daring me to place the can food back on the shelves. Just as I did that, he laid his hands on the can food and placed it in the microwave to heat it. It was too late - the microwave made a few beeping sounds like a time bomb counting down to its inevitable explosion. I grabbed Jonas and dashed out of the kitchen just in time as witnessed the microwave explode with a momental boom, and lumps of overcooked tuna went splat on the kitchen walls.
The house seemed to be livelier than it was during festive seasons, with policemen and firemen inside the house and curious onlookers and neighbours outside. It was pointless to give Jonas a dressing down but I sure had some serious explanation to do to my parents.
I swore, it would be the last babysitting job I am doing for my cousin.
Time for another cam-whoring entry! Basically it is still Chinese New Year, so I still have house visiting to do... and thus, MORE PHOTOS!
So yeah, I went to Cousin Jo's house. It's been a kazillion of years since I went to her house! Er, maybe not so long... just a couple of months. So yes, we took loads of photos with her blue wall. They really looked neoprint walls to me. Hah!
When imitating Cousin Jevons stuck his body onto the wall and act cool failed...
Now this is a much better pose. =)
Look at this effect I did! Just dark strokes only. But nice right?
With Cousin Nicholas! Shucks, I forget to remove these red eyes. Stupid flash.
I don't know how you feel about this photo, but this looks like I'm one Ah Beng hugging 2 chicks.
A self cam-whore photo for you. ^^
Taking pictures while hugging Jo is such a fun. Hah!
The act cute pose with my signature "Cabbit" smile. Muahahah. =D
Er... Cousin Jo looking really ugly.
My lovely apple face sis!
That's all. And Happy Birthday To Cousin Joanne! <33333
I'm pretty lazy to blog recently, and plus I'm sick again. Sore throat and flu. Now the flu is gone, I have a little fever. =(
Some new year pictures for you! (All edited and non-edited)
Day 1
At Uncle's house, with Vivian, my sister!
Took a picture of me doing a spring, and the cards almost fell out because I wasn't looking at it. LOL.
Daddy =D
Went to Ah Ma's house after that, and took pictures with my Cousin Qian Qian!
Look at Qian Qian's face! HAHAHA!
Day 2
Didn't take much pictures, went late to Aunt's house and then everyone is gone.
After a satisfying meal. Hah!
Vv and me. ^^
Day 3
Day 3 is another dead boring day, except I went to Mdm Prema's house and watch a movie. Hah!
An Emo picture in Dad's car. Hmmm...
Did an inverse fan at Dad's friend's house. Hurray!
I shall post more pictures in another post, when all the group photos taken at teacher's house is ready. =)
And oh, I was sleeping soundly this afternoon when someone called me as I didn't reply his message. It was so pissing! But a parcel (from Scott) arrived just as I woke up, so it sort of brighten up my day. Yay!
I shall attempt to catch forty winks now. Bye all!
Ever since Keilli taught me how to use Adobe ImageReady, I've been using that to created animated pictures for pure pleasure!
Then I recalled something in my primary school years - I have a stack of "stickman comics" drawn by myself. Back at that time, I would draw for my classmates and myself to see, and they love it! The most classic one I've ever drawn is "Late For School", a humour comic strip that reflects most students nowadays (boys).
Based on my memory, I made it into an animation, but the original one was much more lame and funny than the animated one. However this animated one is better in terms of drawing. Loads of artwork to do for this. Enjoy!
Yay! I never thought that I can get A for Chinese O's since I failed badly every mock exam papers. Like 30+/100 that kind of thing?
Yes anyway, I went shopping with sissy today. Bought a handbag, necklace and pair of earrings for New Year. And of course... took pictures with sissy:
My attempt of making a neoprint lookalike photo
It's not that bad right? This will be the first and only time I spend like an hour doing such silly stuffs. I shall make more professional editing rather than this. Talk about taking neoprint, I haven't take one for ages.
And some overdue pictures for you guys: (not consider overdue but it's taken 2 days ago)
for not blogging for days. Was ill, feeling lazy and busy with homework.
TOMORROW is the day. The day that I'll be getting my Chinese O Level's results. I fear for this day to come, ever since I entered Higher Chinese class. I'm afraid that I will not do well.
It's only Chinese, you say. Mind you, Chinese has always been my forte. I have never gotten a B in Chinese before and Chinese is the ONLY subject I aced. If I get lower than A for O's Chinese, I shall attempt to drop Higher Chinese. I rather retaking the paper than to sit for Higher Chinese with an ugly B in my report card. I had enough of Bs and Cs, it's time to get an A.
I'm not considering going to Junior Colleges anyway, so why get that 2 bonus points when I can't use it for Polytechnics?
Let's put Chinese O's aside.
I made 2 new skins few days ago! One & Two. For those that haven't commented/rate, please do so. Please make me feel a little better.
