Irony at its best

There's this girl who complains (to me) that my friend doesn't return her friend money that she borrowed.
Today I found out that the complainer doesn't return money that she borrowed either.
A classic pot calling the kettle black.
I'm starting to doubt if my friend actually borrowed the money and not return or is she being framed.
After all, what I have is a one-sided story.
And you know what they say in history, it's not reliable!
LOL.
But still.
Irony like this happen everyday.
I don't just mean the money issue.
Many atime we say so-and-so has this issue, that-and-that cannot do such a thing, and so on.
But we fail to realise that we don't do it as well.
Or have the same issue.
And sometimes, because of our comments, we might hurt others' feelings.
Because if we face the same problem or fail to accomplish something, yet criticise others, isn't that being unfair to the person?
Moreover, are we in a position to criticise in the first place?
Maybe you'll think, yeah of course I am, I'm her good friend.
Still, that doesn't mean you shouldn't think about your comments first.
Because they may really hurt others.
Now, back to the money issue.
It's not a small amount.
(To both parties.)
I really think the money should be returned.
However I'm not the borrower or the lender, I can't really say anything.
So someone, please help.
PERSUADE the lender to ask for her money back (she's too weak and gets bullied by others, more easily than she thinks).
POLITELY ASK the borrower(s) to return money.
And let's hope for miracles, shall we?
And that, my friend, concludes history lesson #4 on reliability and literature lesson #5 on irony.
See ya! :D

Since the SA2s are coming, I'll probably use the com lesser now.
(Not that I use it alot nowdays anyway.)
So just a couple more entries, and I'm off.
Hmm, looks like the end-of-year robotic trip would come to fruition.
Mr Nathan just asked us to research on places that have competitions in the year-end.
But since we performed badly (in his opinion) during this year's NJRC, we have to take part in THREE competitions during the NOVEMBER holidays.
There goes my holiday plans.
Haha :X
Of course, more competitions = more points.
But I'm not that desperate for points until I want to sacrifice my holiday for competitions.
But Mr Nathan says that this is his 'damage control' for the NJRC.
Argh.
Oh well.
I'll just have to bear with it.
And hope we don't get to go to Brunei, Malaysia or China.
Everyone's hoping for Japan, Korea or Australia.
Haha :P
So I guess ppl will be spending their time on the favourited 3 countries.
And downplay the other 3.
However another point is that if we do get to go these countries, only a select number can go cos of the budget.
Not sure if Mr Nathan wants all sec 3s to go.
If so the rest of us (including me) probably don't stand a chance.
But if not I have a chance.
So we'll see.
(And quite honestly, I don't really give a damn. Been to Korea and Australia, done that.)
But it still looks like the year end holidays' going to be one hell of a time.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maybe I should have posted this sooner.
I don't know.
But my group didn't get into the top 40 of the N.E. mation! 5 competition.
Oh wells.
It's already over (long ago).
But still...
I guess I was hoping to get in (a lot).
It was only when we realised we didn't get in that I understood how much I wanted to get in.
Before that I was rather cool and nonchalant about it.
But the rejection was unexpectedly difficult to bear.
This just goes to show 2 things.
1) I expect too much. (Probably.)
2) I really wanted to go USA. (Most likely.)
But still, I missed animation.
Did it in primary school, but it was eons ago.
And during the animation course I really had fun.
I really like animation.
Of course someday I'll want to try again.
Maybe next year.
But I think we should just wait until then and then see how, right?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I really want to score for this year's SA2.
I mean, it's streaming year and all.
But part of me says that, hey this is just part of our journey.
Still have O-levels, A-levels, and most likely university exams.
Of course this milestone looks big now, but after this year we'll probably not even think much about it.
But still.
I still wanna score.
Haha.
I bet lotsa ppl think the same way too.
I wonder how much I'm willing to work hard for it.
I still recall how much work I put in for primary school.
(I decided against saying just how much here.)
Will I work harder than before?
Or will I just let nature take its course?
Guess we'll find out soon.

2 blog posts ago I mentioned I'll probably go crazy if Big Bang were to come here.
(Heck, actually I forgot I wrote that.)
How coincidental that they ARE coming!!!
OMG MY ALL TIME FAVOURITE GROUP IS COMING!!!!
Not that I think I can see them.
Although Kpop Night sounds wonderful (except SNSD, that is).
But LOL, it's so ex.
But I wanna see them~~
Taeyang's genius-ness~
G-Dragon's erm... He's cool. Yeah. Haha. :P
T.O.P.'s .... I don't really care. Oops. XD
Daesung's cuteness!!! HEARTZXC DAESUNG FOREVER!!!! <333333333333333
Seungri's ... No idea.
Ahaha.
Biased!!!
:P
But they're seriously good as a group.
Sure, they have a long way to beating SHINee and Super Junior.
But I think they can do it :D
Other groups coming: SNSD (like I care), FT Island (oooh, HONGKI! :D), SHINee (okays), Infinite (huh?) and D-NA (huh?).
Feelings on the chosen groups:
Big Bang is the best choice they ever made!!! XD
Similarly, SNSD is the worst choice they made. Hahaha.
Very upset that SS501, MBLAQ and CNBLUE aren't coming.
SS501 - expected, they are kinda in a breakup crisis right now. Hope they don't separate!
MBLAQ - WHY?! They should be able to come!!!
CNBLUE - I guess it's too soon after their Singapore stop.
Who the heck are Infinite and D-NA?
Why are they coming?
Only the hottest, most popular groups should come.
(I acknowledge that SNSD is popular; I just don't like them.)
Oh wells.
Let us all pray for a miracle XD
