Sunday, April 02, 2006 : April's Fool

23:19

yesterdae was April's Fool! been looking ard where does it orginiate! well i manage to find out wat are the traditon but the fact that how different people from different places play tricks on other people..! how April's Fool came about was from this old rhyme from Poor Robin's Alamanack in 1760...!!

The first of April, some do say,
Is set apart for All Fool's Day.
But why the people call it so
Nor I nor they themselves do know.
But on this day are people sent
On purpose for pure merriment.

some believe that the tradition dates all the way back to the founding of Rome, where the population are mostly male..! well im not sure Romans & Greeks are the same kinda pple..! but all i noe that pple of Greece believe in God Zeus...! but since Rome are mostly male, so they wld want to look for wives...! so the Romans invited the Sabines to the city ostensibly for games in honor of the god Neptune. so u can guess when the Sabines arrived, they found that they were tricked, finding armed warriors waiting to snatch their daughters. it was believed that the event took place at the beginning of April...! & so the Romans took this practice of deceitful tricks with them to other parts of the world...! muz be the saying: when you're in Rome, do what the Romans do...! except that we are not in Rome!!!

so practical jokes on this dae are allowed & encouraged by the fact!! but haf to play ur tricks before noon, or you'll b a victim of ypur own joke, according to tradition...!!

another memorable event happened on the 1st of April...! wondering anyone remembered...! well that is the death of Leslie Cheung...! the superstar of Hong Kong...! he jumped to his death from donnoe where...! hmm...i don remember how many death anniversary past, but i clearly remembered it was on the 1st of April! hahaha...he kinda chose quite a dae to die! i've watched some of his show..! still ok i guess....! dere's alwaes a repeat of his show or wat on TV, so nvr missed out much! LoLx...

but to me, 1st of April 2006 is a sad day, month for me! coz i juz received my pay slip & pay check! sob! i got a freaking 130bucks!! haiz...how am i gonna live for the month of April??! i still haf to pay my fone bill!! wat am i gonna live on aft i've paid my bill?!! cursed life i've got...! trying to seek solace by going online, playing Yahoo! pool! tink im getting "sucky-er" the more i play! people is getting better by the minute...while for me, im getting worse everytime i play! i was wondering whether it's my mood that affect my "performance" in playing or wat! well, watever it is....i noe that i getting worse everytime i play! well can anyone tell me wassup wif me?! *sobz sobz*

Today is 2nd April...! the Final of Campus Superstar! i have been telling Chris, my colleague, that either Teresa or Chee Yong(Zhiyang) will win the competition! hahaha...coz so far i've seen, they are the best 2 of the 4 contestants...! Teresa has a soothing & sweet voice, while Zhiyang is the so-called "qing ge" prince! hahaha...he can carry his vocals very well! Zhiyang & Teresa has the same soothing voice, that really makes the listeners feel & sway with their voice! they've got such clarity in their voice that they can really become professional singers!

hahaha...but watever it is...Renfred, Geraldine, Teresa & Zhiyang are all winners!! coz they haf made it dis far to the competition! wat really makes it sad that, Adriano was out at the last part! he really makes a gd performer! whenever he performed, he makes me wonder wat kind of performance is he gonna bring! hahaha...maybe i start to notice him since he's comeback, when he was booted out of the competition!

i used to tink that Adriano & that Yi Wei are the same person...! coz they kinda look alot alike...! it's their specs lar..! kinda alwaes mixed up Adriano with being a Raffles Institution(RI) boy! while Yi Wei being a Temask Sec guy! hahaha...it was when Yi Wei was booted out, leaving Adriano in the competition that i realize that Adriano is from Temask Sec! LoLx...! muz b the acne on Yi Wei face that makes me think that he's not from RI! oops...! hahaha...but the mixed up has been cleared up...! juz hope that any supporter of Yi Wei will not scream at me for saying abt his face! sorry..! LoLx..

back to wat i was saying, i haf to congrat Zhiyang for winning Campus Superstar! he has made his sch(Hwa Chong) proud! hahaha....actually, all the contestants haf made their school proud for being in the competition! but it was kinda funny to see Mr. Joshua Ang of CHIJ Katong Convent, for making such a funny speech! although i can't really hear anything, but the gers behind him were sniffling their laughter! LoLx...but i really have to take my hats off for that Malay co-form teacher for speaking such fluent Mandarin...! muz getting help from the China chinese teacher, Ms. Chang Fang! hahaha...but overall, Teresa has made KC proud...! hahaha...! eehh...all of the sudden feel like singing the school song! LoLx...mayb nxt time..! i really don wanna bore any1! LoLx..

speaking of schools...! i really haf to get dis off my chest! dere is a misconception that Meitong & I are from the same sch! juz coz we know each other like so long...! hahaha...the ans is that, we are not from the same secondary school, although we know each other since Sec 1! that's because we are from the same tution center! CDAC! so get it now people!!
