As you would have known, making a rhyme, or even a couple of them, requires inspiration. At this weird and strange hour, as I revised for my Bio-mechanics common test set for tomorrow, inspiration struck! I will have you to know, I have received some small form of rewards for them before, namely in the form of Popular vouchers, S$20 and S$10! And so, here it goes:
Go __, Go __, Go__, Go!!
Common test, Common test, blow blow BLOW!
We'll blow it all away,
Common test, Common test, you're so suay!!
(Yeah!)
By the way, I left the blank after the "Go __" for you to add in a name! That way, you would be able to use this rhyme as a cheer for any friend going through any common test! However, there is but one condition to use this rhyme/cheer, that is, that any name used have to be of one syllabus and one syllabus only, or you could shorten your friend's name to one syllabus! Examples of the names that can be used are like my name, Paul, or Mich, for my best friend Michelle, or Jo, for my other best friend, Joel!! I hope you could have fun with this!!
P.S.
Be it good, be it bad,
This is all i really had!!
(So bad!)
Because it needs inspiration,
So my rhymes don't come that often!
(So sad!)
Oh, don't be mad, and don't be so sad!
'Cause Paul Tan's rhymes, well, IT WILL BE BACK!!!
(YEAH!!! XD XD XD)

Reply
As i was lying in bed last night, a sudden thought hit my mind, or to be more accurate, it was a word. Reply. Though this may be a word that people always see all over the place, from Facebook, from Twitter, and from the various websites or electronic devices, have anyone ever give a thought about this word? Perhaps not, or maybe yes, but certainly not for long for most people. Due to the many events that happen to me throughout my life, especially these recent years, though I have just been of this world for a mere 17 years, I wondered about the significance of this word 'reply', for the first time in my entire life.
What is a reply? Some people might say, 'Oh, it's just a response to a question asked', or, 'It's the second crucial step in communications! For without a reply, no conversation can be continued, and without a conversation, it's not much of communications any more.' Though the latter is highly uncommon, it gets you thinking, thinking about how important a reply is, thinking of the significance that a reply, or every single replies received, have made a difference in your life. Ok, I may be exaggerating, because people usually will not think so much, and yes, it may just be that there is only me that would consider so much about just this one common word.
Well, what is a reply to you anyway? I may not be able to get your answer straight away because, obviously, I'm not standing in front of you and asking you this question directly. And so, I guess I'll just have to answer this question first! What is, a reply to me? In my own personal view, I feel that a reply is a very precious thing indeed, and that I will treasure each and every reply that i have received dearly, because I may have considered one fact that not many people do, a reply could show the state of your friendship, of your relationship you have, with other people! Depending on the reply, you could jolly well tell how much of a person you are to the other guy, or girl. Depending on the reply, you could see how much the other person cares for you!
So now, have your perception on my question changed? To me, if I were to not receive a reply, I will start thinking "What am I to you? Am i still a friend? Do you not consider me a friend at all, so much that you don't even bother to just give me a single reply?" Honestly, I will appreciate a late reply, as long as I can get the reply!! The only thing is, if it's ridiculously long before i receive your reply, I might have forgotten about it and it would have resulted in me missing out a part of my life without me ever knowing what is missing, and that would have been damn sad indeed. Just think about it, are you sure that you have absolutely never received replies that made your world change, forever? For the better or sadly, for the worst? It is the way of the world, and the replies I received have so far changed me, changed my life for the better!
Communication is an important part of our lives, for miscommunication can change someone else's life forever. It is a two-way thing, that cannot work unless, someone takes the first step to attempt at communicating, and someone else, takes the second and equally crucial step to show a response, that is, to reply. In fact, a reply can be so important that once there is no reply, a friendship can be forgotten, no matter how many years it took to achieve that level of friendship; a relationship can go wrong even, no matter how much love and trust placed into the relationship!! So, just reconsider your action, are you that sure you do not want to reply? Are you sure, that you are able to handle the disastrous catastrophe that might just follow after?
No reply means miscommunication. Miscommunication means the tearing apart of two souls that used to be one, the riping of a once strong and wonder friendship, and tearing asunder of a peaceful world that everyone understands each other. This is what not replying can mean, what not replying can summon forth, and what you might have to deal with. Such is the consequence of not replying, and the significance of the word "Reply".
I thus end this post now, hoping that this post have brought about insights to you, towards the many little things that we tend to leave out in our lives. However, it would be gratifying if you would leave just a short comment of at least 5 words to tell me your thoughts about this post.
Thank You!!

What that must be done!!
22nd June, I met with my best friends Michelle and Joel once again ever since the 2 weeks of study break started, for the purpose of studying.
Math, Chemistry and Biomechanics!!! Each of the subjects mentioned requires us to take a common test!!! Math needs a lot of patience and determination to practise, so does Biomechanics!! Then, in came CHEMISTRY!!! Chemistry, this dark, dark subject to me!! The wonders and horrors of Chemistry!! I never did well in Chemistry, not in my alma mater, and definitely will not be in the polytechnic, where the part-time lectures responds not to email, never leave contact number, and comes only 2 days per week when there is school!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From this, my dear readers, you could jolly well predict what would most likely be our fates for the up-and-coming COMMON TEST!!! Then, this is where the title part comes in... What that must be done!!
On the 22nd June itself, my best friends and I met to study in the school library. Coincidentally, we were all prepared for Math!! That would have been great, if not for the fact that Chemistry is the biggest priority!!! I bought an A Levels H2 Chemistry book for that, and yet, it was too much for us to decipher its secrets, to uncover the treasures within!!! What that must be done: CALL FOR HELP!! ENDURE!! PRACTISE MORE!!! THIS IS WHAT THAT MUST BE DONE!!! BE ONE WITH CHEMISTRY!! MAY CHEMISTRY BE WITH ME!! AND YOU!! AND ALL THOSE STUGGLING OUT THERE!!! S.T.U.D.Y.!!!

18th June, LI NING BADMINTON OPEN!!
The day before the Li Ning Badminton Open Semi-finals, my long time good friend Zuo Yu called me to ask if i want to come along to be a spectator along with his family for the Open. As it had been a really long time since we last met and talk, I naturally agreed!!
We agreed to meet outside Exit A of the Stadium Station at 1.45pm and as I did not know how long it would take for me to reach the Stadium Station, I went off at 12pm. Turns out, I reached the meeting place an hour earlier!!!! Thus, due to my over-eagerness, I had to find ways to entertain myself!!
Looking at the buildings in the distance, I found myself looking at a coulorful building nearby. It was the Kallang Leisure Mall!! When I first stepped into the mall, my first thoughts were that "Wo!! What a crowd!! What big event is happening?? There's even an emcee talking!!' A closer look at the signs answered my question. It was a free gift giveaway!! However, it's only for limited amount of the customers that bought from the shop sponsoring. It drew a humongous crowd consisting of mainly the ladies and aunties, for the shop specialises in woman products.
To get to the other side of the mall, I had to expand more energy to walk around the mall, weaving in and out of the other shoppers and finally, TIME TO EXPLORE!! XDXDXD!! Within minutes, i had already took a good look round the mall!! IT'S SO SMALL!! OMG!!
To spend my time more, I walked past every single shop the mall has, from the B1 to L3, then i spent some time 'sight-seeing' the arcade on the top-most level of the mall. Finally, 45 minutes passed!!! Ends up, I STILL GOTTA SPEND TIME DAZING!!
Finally, FINALLY!! The time had cometh!! My friend arrived with his father and his younger brother!! IT'S TIME FOR THE MATCH!! We spent a good few hours watching some okay okay matches, and was getting bored, AND THEN!! In marched the players that got everyone roused up!! In no time at all, the whole stadium were cheering for their champions!!
Extreme matches were played!! Diving for the shuttlecock at the second point!! Rolling up to hit again!! Almost for every 2 points scored, a new shuttlecock was used!!! I'm glad i never turned this wonderful opportunity down!! WOO HOOO!! And that, was 18th June, LI NING BADMINTON OPEN!!

Green Lantern! Brand new storyline!!
The Brightest Day!! I can't bear to wait for the coming of the Brightest Day!! Whhooooo Hooooo!!! Green Lantern really rocks!!! Brand new rings, brand new entities, brand new powers!!!! The continuation of the Blackest Night!!!
Green Lantern: The Blackest Night!!! Intro of the Life Entity!!!
The Life Entity, also known as The Entity and as the White Entity, was a living sentient entity that was formed at the beginning of the universe and is the embodiment of life. It is not known whether the Entity was brought into the universe either by accident or by design with such a question not even being known to the likes of Krona. This Entity's existence came on the planet Earth which became the source of all life. After arriving on the barren world, it sealed itself beneath the magma of the world in order to hide where its entry into the universe began to affect the cosmos around it. The beings existence bestowed life across space and gave birth to living being itself. This meant that it retained a link to all life and any harm to it would fall upon the living. Through its influence, it led to the development of the Emotional Spectrum as well as numerous organisms. Of these first lifeforms, the Entity's power touched them and transformed them into different Embodiments of the Emotional Spectrum. This saw the birth of the Ion Entity from Willpower, the Parallax Entity from Fear, the Predator Entity from Love, the Ophidian Entity from Avarice, the Butcher Entity from Rage, the Adara Entity from Hope and the Proselyte Entity from Compassion.
Green Lantern: The Blackest Night!!!
The Will of the Green Lanterns, ION and the Guardians, the Fear of the Yellow Lanterns, PARALLAX and Sinestro, the Hope of the Blue Lanterns, ADARA and former-Guardians Ganthet and Sayd, the Rage of the Red Lanterns, THE BUTCHER and Atrocitus, the Love of the Star Sapphires, THE PREDATOR and Carol Ferris with the Zamarons, the Compassion of the Indigo Lanterns, PROSELYTE and Indigo-1, the Avarice (Greed) of the Orange Lantern, OPHIDIAN and Larfleeze, the Death of the Black Lanterns, WILLIAM HAND and Nekron!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's so exciting!!!! And when all colours of the spectrum unite, out comes the power of LIFE, THE ENTITY!!! It's LIFE vs DEATH!!!

Outing = Dispair..... WHY???
An outing was planned for my class in polytechnic, yes, i'm in a polytechnic now!! Surprise!!! Too long have i been abandoning my blog, and now it's the time to get this blog up and running again!!!
Anyway, back to what i have been saying... It was meant to be a nice outing, to go prawning @ Bishan or Punggol, or, to go cycling down the nostalgic cycling trails of Pasir Ris Park or East Coast Park!!!! My dear dear class wasn't so responsive about it as it's the hols. I was like, OMG I do know it's the hols!!! But this is like, the very first class outing we're gonna have!!!! Hence, I decided to plan with my friend Andy, who gave this wondrous suggestion, what we're gonna do regardless of where our dear class gonna choose.
As it went on, I got more and more 'on' about the coming outing, I imagined how it would be... Smiles everywhere, laughter and jokes, as we prawn or cycle!!! It's gonna be fun!!! However, this proved futile as the response that I'm getting was very bad indeed... It was supposed to be held on the 17th of June, the first friday of our hols, but many people had plans to go out already and so i thought, well, fine, I should have mentioned this earlier, so that they can make time for the outing, then i guess i would have to push the outing back then!! To the following Monday!!!
Things don't always go so well as it is planned, no matter how much effort you put into it. It is the absolute truth and you got no choice but to accept it!!! NO CHOICE AT ALL!!! For some reason or another, again, not much people gave a postive respond!!!! Why must it go this way??? Is it that this outing was just not meant to be?? There are people out there that are very eagerly awaiting for this day to come!!! People like my 2 new best friends, Michelle and Joel!!!
However, this is just how cruel fate is. Majority voted not to come, and ends up, nothing but despair and sadness awaits.... Why must it be??? WHY!!!!! This is a question that harbors no answer, and this is the truth that I must accept.... In the end, this was how it all ends, NOTHING!! NO OUTING!!! This is truly a damn sad case, a lost case that nothing can be done about, for Singapore is a democratic country after all, and that's how it is... SAD!! :(
P.S. I just thought of something, this is somthting that i can really just shout out : "Wa meng ti, Wa meng ti,Kam ye tang mai chong di, go zai ai li, jik moi si wa ka ki!!!!!!"
