I haven't been posting mainly for these reasons (or excuses, as some may call it).

1. I haven't been at home, since my entire immediate family isn't in Singapore. So I have been putting up in someone elses home.
2. The person as mentioned in 1 happens to be the jack(ass) of all trades. And the house itself may be known as the Lament Configuration.
3. I've been busy preparing for guzheng performances in December and for the New Year and Chinese New Year celebrations.

Other than that, I'm all drained because of my mundane routine, and I haven't even touched my homework.

So, how does one not end up like me, aside from not succumbing to temptations of laziness? And conveniently forgetting to remember / remembering to forget to do your homework?

Simply by following these 11 simple rules and advices.
1. A photographic memory is no good if it is never developed.
2. Never hold Crack and a syringe at the same time.
3. How long a minute is depends on which teacher you have.
4. If you hear the 'Uh-Oh' before the bathroom door slamming, it's already too late.
5. Don't try to teach an idiot to think. It wastes your time and bothers the idiot. (And don't worry about idiot babies. They should learn how to breathe in at the very most 2 years. Hopefully oxygen can be taken in intraveneously.)
6. Never test the depth of water with both feet. Or your own feet, for that matter.
7. Anyone can win. Unless there happens to be a second entry.
8. The chicken crossing the road is poultry in motion.
9. Confidence is the feeling one experiences before he/she understands the situation.
10. Never mess an excuse by inserting an apology.

Top Tip: Buy low, Sell high.

Well, enjoy the tattered remains of your holidays, everyone. To those people who have said strange things about me (e.g. Calling me the Cheshire Cat repeatedly), I will fricasse you en flambe. So I hope you like sitting in an oven with an apple in your mouth and 'Main Course' scrawled on your forehead.

Here's hoping that we can 'Grin from Ear to Ear, from Year to Year. (Try saying that three times fast.)
