*sigh* on the other hand..finally got a look at my 2nd 6 weeks grades today..
english: 87
psychology: 92
PE: 92
calculus: 86
humanities: 94
economics: 89

it is TIME to step it up.
time to own up.

alex yang has just recently started using aim, so me and the rest of the JPG's got in a chatroom and taught him the "common knowledge" of the world of instant messaging.

for example:
LeXlAnTiS: brb = be right back
HeyLookItsXiao: mmk = mmmm ok
LeXlAnTiS: bbl = be back later
LeXlAnTiS: wut = what
LeXlAnTiS: da = the

and of course, my personal favorite: fallin f0r y0u: aig = alex is gayy

then, just as it seemed like we were making progress in teaching alex the fundamentals of aim..
jdaVII: yous=you guys type too fast, get it? yous?
jdaVII: see i made up one
fallin f0r y0u: ...
LeXlAnTiS: uh...NO
LeXlAnTiS: stop while ur ahead
HeyLookItsXiao: ...
fallin f0r y0u: ..and NO alex, this is NOT a game
jdaVII: im ahead?

seriously now..can you do anything else but shake your head?
btw, hes the dulles VALEDICTORIAN.

DarkJediPete: where we gonna eat tomorrow?
fallin f0r y0u: *shrug*
fallin f0r y0u: am i supposed to set it up?

DarkJediPete: yeah
fallin f0r y0u: yeah, they got this problem w/ gas..and they like blaming it on taco bell
fallin f0r y0u: shame
DarkJediPete: taco bell....psshhhhh they have fake beans...no gas there
fallin f0r y0u: EXACTLY
fallin f0r y0u: its all denial..or maybe some repressed memories
DarkJediPete: haha repressed memories....psych getting to you :P

*yawn* in the school library..
"researching" for my upcoming research paper..
which basically consists of updating my blog.
soo..yeah.
today has been alrite..just owned up on the calculus quiz..
i think i maintained my 102 average in there =)

highlight of my day so far:
in PE, i watched this guy commentating while playing a basketball game.
an exact quote:
"kyle jumps for the rebound. he tips it to himself! he dribbles down the court, and he sees brian! kyle passes the ball to brian, he dribbles it along the right baseline, shoots, and scores!"

ah, good stuff.

my mind is full of bottomless questions,
but the blurry answers remain hazy;
all my dreams end with storybook endings,
but I only sigh, and think "if only"..

the future is quickly approaching,
yet I have no defense against it;
so many wishes, yet so much doubt -
all I can do is watch the clock tick.

as the future takes each step closer,
I pray a short and simple prayer,
begging for a simple guarantee
of my happily ever after.

hm..nothing much happened today..

got inducted into EHS tonight..thats about it.
well, gtg do some lovely hw.

for all you college people, this is just a glimpse of how much we miss you..
check it out

my cousin, Joseph (or Owen, as some of you may know him by), has this research paper that he needs to finish by tomorrow.
I, being the kind-hearted guy that i am known to be, offer to help him. he says he needs to make it longer because the total requirement is 7 pages.

here is one of his paragraphs:
The main idea of surrogacy is to give birth to a baby with the help of another female. There are two different types of surrogacy. In traditional surrogacy, the surrogate mother donates her egg, and a sperm is used to perform the surrogate. Nowadays, surrogacy is the placement of live embryos into a surrogate mother.

after reading this, i tell him that if he really wanted to make his paper longer, he could just add adjectives all over the place.
so this is what he thought of:
The main idea of surrogacy is to give birth to a freakin' baby with the help of another freakin' female. There are two different types of surrogacy. In freakin' traditional surrogacy, the freakin' surrogate mother donates her freakin' egg, and a freakin' sperm is used to perform the freakin' surrogate. Nowadays, surrogacy is the placement of live embryos into a freakin' surrogate mother.

..don't look at me..I didn't teach him that word..

*sigh* i have a confession to make.

on friday, at awana, i accidentally licked the microphone. key word: accidentally.
just want to apologize to all the people who are gonna use that mic after me..
hm, maybe i should just explain the entire situation.

well, you see..
during awana, i found a nice bag of dum-dum's. so i found my favorite flavor, cream soda, and began to enjoy its incredible taste.
however, during this time, the kids began to get a bit rowdy, and since i didn't feel like yelling, i started using the microphone.
well, with the mic in my left hand and the lollipop in my right, i got mixed up after about 5 minutes, so without thinking, i talked into the lollipop and then licked the microphone.

..there's the gist of it. funny thing is, it took me about 5 seconds until i figured out why the dum-dum suddenly had a strange metal taste to it.

anyhoo, gotta continue studying for a quiz and a test tomorrow..
so, until next time, this is jonathan mok, signing off.

Jesus, what can I give;
What can I bring,
To so faithful a friend,
To so loving a king?

My words could not tell,
Not even in part,
Of the debt of love that is owed
By this thankful heart.
