After holidays...

Hey, today is the first day after the holidays and we're all back in school!! =] !! It was quite fun today cause we get to see our friends again!! =]

Today during science class Cikgu Francis Tan made another announcement like in the previous post. To quote:

Cikgu Tan : "Timothy, you received 5 merit points from ... um ... Cikgu Josephine Kueh. For
helping during the sports day..."
Timothy : " *nod* *nod*"
Someone jealous : " Ee!! Why like that one?! Why always give him one?! Never give me?!"
Cikgu Francis : " What about your house?? Didn't give you?? *Blah blah blah etc etc etc*

Lol... =]. That will make the total merit points from 69 from the beginning of the year and from the last post, 69 + 15 = 84 and now 84 + 5 = 89.

Also, today during English class, Ms Vivien Ng, our English teacher taught us about the 13 Virtues of Benjamin Franklin. The list is as follows:

  1. Temperance
  2. Silence
  3. Order
  4. Resolution
  5. Frugality
  6. Industry
  7. Sincerity
  8. Justice
  9. Moderation
  10. Cleanliness
  11. Tranquility
  12. Chastity
  13. Humiliation
These are the 13 Virtues of Benjamin Franklin. Teacher also told us to do an oral assessment on the short stories we have learnt so far and i think i would like to do something on the 13 Virtues of Benjamin Franklin. I would like to choose Chastity and be my pleasure to elaborate on it as much as possible.

Chastity doesn't mean that you must be abstinence till the day you die in the state of a gay old virgin or an 'Old maid'. Chastity means to only have sexual expression towards the one you are willing to have a commitment with. This means that one must be abstinence until the day that you are willing to have a commitment with the one you truly love. To me, Chastity is a sure fire way to make sure that you and your spouse can live a perfect and STD [Sexually Transmitted Disease] free life. This will not only ensure you and your spouse free from STD but also your future generation like your sons and your son's son. They will follow your example, if you promote it enough to them, and live a STD free life which will ensure a long and healthy, passionate love life. This virtue is portrayed by many religions, especially by monks. They believe the only way to be holy and 'clean' is by not having sex. This is somewhat true because your virginity is a gift from God, our lord almighty to be shared with our future spouses and only our future spouse, not with some one you met at the bar over night and wanted to have a one night stand.

And that will be enough for my speech on Chastity for today. Lol =].

I'll now be making fun of a few quotes only really few cause i don't think i have a lot of time.

Quote # 1
"An eye for an eye"
~If we live in a world following the saying 'an eye for an eye', everyone in this world will go blind!! Lol. =].

Quote # 2
"In the kingdom of the blind, the one eyed man reigns supreme"

Blind man # 1 : How do we really know that he really has one eye?? For all we know he might
have none.
1 eyed man : I can prove that i have one eye. Right now, with my one eye, i can see that
all of you are blind and only i have 1 eye!!
Blind man #2 : Hail King with 1 eye!! (Stupid!! =])

Quote # 3
"An apple a day keeps the doctor away"
~
Sure it works... with proper aim and a good arm... =]

Quote # 4
"Don't count your eggs before they hatch"
~
Yeah, you will never know.... you might get hungry... =]

That will be all for today, i have to continue with my kk and hw now...
Bye!! =]
