Ring Of Nine Dragons!!!!!.... .

The above is a reference to a certain cartoon show I used to watch. Jackie Chan, whom I mostly idolise apart from the various minor scandals about his life, son, and affairs (right...?) voiced his own character in this show, called Shaolin Showdown. In one episode, a little monk picks up a ring by accident: the Ring of Nine Dragons. This ring, like so many of the other antiques that the monk (along with his associates) collects, posseses a mysterious power: it can create multiple copies of the wearer. Unfortunately, each copy only bears one unique characteristic of a person; hence, the Ring eventually ends up wreaking havoc. Now, just what is the point of this little anecdote?

I am simply voicing my wonderment at those people who manage to do admin matters (say, for CCAs, household issues, relaxation time etc) and Facebook with their several hundred friends and still manage to complete a rather substantial amount of homework in a day. Their brains must be very, very powerful. Meanwhile, lil ol' me gets by with lots of slack time, and hence I don't get anything done in the department of Homework. Considering that I have at least two subjects left to play catch-up on (not going to mention the exact number of chapters- too depressing, although closer friends should know, since I've been coomplaining about them for a few months already), and the entirety of all my subjects to study for, not to mention Bio O, which I have not been doing anything for, mostly forgot everything, and will probably be kicked out from very, very soon, and I have much less than a week's time left to complete all those, as well as sleep, eat, hanging out for CIP, ...  

I can confidently say that I am screwed for the Common Tests.

Somehow, the fact that that's the only thing I can be confident in makes it all the more depressing...


p.s. Being an utter sloth, this lazy author has worked out a plan to train for 2.4km run jog. Which is: to brisk walk in the MRT from my home to school and back (quite a short distance, actually), avoid the escalators, or at least take escalator steps two at a time, and shift feet in a funny position for every step. Basically, I walk, and the foot that lands will be toe-first. Then I try to shift the leg inwards (so clockwise for right leg, anticlockwise for left). I swear, try brisk walking and doing that funny crap for 100m, and you'll die. So I gave up after a short period of time and just brisk walked home.
