History Mystery

Have a history teacher explain this----- if they can.

Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846.
John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946.

Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860.
John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960.

Both were particularly concerned with civil rights.
Both wives lost their children while living in the White House.

Both Presidents were shot on a Friday.
Both Presidents were shot in the head

Now it gets really weird.

Lincoln 's secretary was named Kennedy.
Kennedy's Secretary was named Lincoln .

Both were assassinated by Southerners.
Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson.

Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln , was born in 1808.
Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908.

John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln , was born in 1839.
Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939.

Both assassins were known by their three names.
Both names are composed of fifteen letters.

Now hang on to your seat.

Lincoln was shot at the theater named 'Ford.'
Kennedy was shot in a car called ' Lincoln ' made by 'Ford.'

Lincoln was shot in a theater and his assassin ran and hid in a warehouse.
Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and his assassin ran and hid in a theater.

Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials.

And here's the kicker...

A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe , Maryland
A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe.

HOW TO STOP PEOPLE FROM BUGGING YOU ABOUT GETTING MARRIED

Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, 'You're next.' They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.

Up

The day after I watched G.I.Joe, I watched...UP!

Well, when it first came out, I was not excited in watching it, but since I went out with my family, and since I've already watched G.I.Joe, I gave it a shot.

I was not disappointed! It is an awesome movie with a hidden meaning--Holding on to the past keeps you from the future.

I seriously promote this show. It's filled with just enough repetitative humour to keep your smiling. Disney and Pixar really outdid themselves this time! A big thumbs Up to Up.

It's an aweome show...cross-my-heart! (watch the movie to understand why I said that xP)

G.I.Joe

watched G.I.Joe on Monday! It was a classic all-action American Movie xD

It was awesome because they packed the hstory of the main characters in that two-hour slot and still had more action than you can think of.

The best scene was when they used the Accelerator Suits:

The best-remembered character is Snake Eyes (the !st pics).

It's a cinema movie...a movie worth watching with surround sound xD

THE BEAUTY OF MATHS

Absolutely amazing!
Beauty of Math!

1 x 8 + 1 = 9
12 x 8 + 2 = 98
123 x 8 + 3 = 987
1234 x 8 + 4 = 9876
12345 x 8 + 5 = 98765
123456 x 8 + 6 = 987654
1234567 x 8 + 7 = 9876543
12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432
123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321


1 x 9 + 2 = 11
12 x 9 + 3 = 111
123 x 9 + 4 = 1111
1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111
12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111
123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111
1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111
12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111
123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111


9 x 9 + 7 = 88
98 x 9 + 6 = 888
987 x 9 + 5 = 8888
9876 x 9 + 4 = 88888
98765 x 9 + 3 = 888888
987654 x 9 + 2 = 8888888
9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888
98765432 x 9 + 0 = 888888888

Brilliant, isn't it?


And look at this symmetry:

1 x 1 = 1
11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234321
11111 x 11111 = 123454321
111111 x 111111 = 12345654321
1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321
11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321
111111111 x 111111111=12345678987654321



Now, take a look at this...


101%

From a strictly mathematical viewpoint:

What Equals 100%?
What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?
Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?
We have all been in situations where someone wants you to

GIVE OVER 100%.

How about ACHIEVING 101%?

What equals 100% in life?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help answer these questions:

If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
Is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

If:
H-A-R-D-W-O-R- K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

And:
K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But:
A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

THEN, look how far the love of God will take you:
L-O-V-E-O-F-G-O-D
12+15+22+5+15+6+7+15+4 = 101%


Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that:

While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will
get you there, It's the Love of God that will put you over the top!

Seven things shy guys want to tell the one they like

1. "If you need a shoulder, mine is free."
2. "Please look at me more!"
3. "Do you know I exist? I know you do."
4. "I want to write a biography on you, but I need to get to know you first."
5. "Hi, what's your name?
6. "Please talk to me."
7. "Hello."

Kaki Blue

Watched Kaki Blue yesterday in KLPac!

Well. It was a beautiful satire. The actors/actresses played their parts well, and I guess they were awesome!

Well done to those who are part of YCA especially YKLS! Good job Edmund in your lead role, Jessica, Joel, Annette, Tracy, and others!

Farewell YKLS

MUSIC CAMP IN SINGAPORE

BREAKIN' IT DOWN

AUSTRALIAN MONTH AT KLPAC

CHORALTHON

Due to my lack of time this year, it is sad that I have to give up some activities. One of them,

I have decided to give up YKLS. Though it is sad, I feel that YKLS has served its purpose for me. I very much wanted to perform again, but time does not permit, so I have to say bye to the choir I love--my first choir.

Well one year in the YKLS has built up my confidence, helped me meet new friends, and helped me sing. It was a blast to learn under Susanna Saw, Tracy Wong, and Joanne Poh. I hope that I'll be able to return when my schedule clears up abit more.

This is my last month in the YKLS. I'm leaving right after the Live on Stage which is my burden.

HELP: a bummer

Well on Saturday, I went to the challenge and survived a four hour long lecture!! After that everything went downhill.

I lost on the first round!! I can't believe it!! After all that I went through, I survived only one round. I scored seven points out of fifteen questions, mainly because we were only given ten seconds. For every right answer I received one point, but it was the saame for one wrong answer. So it was super tough.

The only good result I got out of it is I scored more than my sister who scored five points xD
