yes i am aware that i haven't updated in the longest time.
only leaving my dear faithful readers with a crappy cartoon to contend with.
haha!
the past few days have been
crazy.
what with dance dance and tests and whatnot.
i'll post pictures of dance dance and
horrible usher stories to amuse y'all soon.
meanwhile, i'll update on the last two days.
sunday night:the night i faced my fears.
for most of you who know me well enough,
you'd know how a single bug can reduce me into a screaming mess by just fluttering it's wings.(for beetles, albeit their noisy ones.)
on sunday night. joey, my regular, trusty
bug-terminator left me to fend for myself.
we had discovered the beetle at 9pm at night. he caught it effortlessly and was having a ball of a time torturing it when it flew outta the bowl and back into my room.
it was in the lights.
unable to do anything, joey promised to get it for me when it was within reach.
at 1am, my mum saw the beetle on my cupboard and caught it in a tissue. she had one foot outta the door when the thing flew outta her grip. she quicky shut the door and assured me that it was out.
HOWEVER, at 2:30am that night. just as i was about to switch of the lights, there it was, beside the switch. i swear, it was like meeting my crush.
adrenaline rush.(preparing for fight or flight?)
being a bio student, allow me to flaunt.
increased heart rate, arterioles constrict causing pallor, pupils dilate, increased glucose levels.
okay enough, im being dramatic.
then i decided, it was up to me to get rid of it if i don't want it flying into my mouth while i sleep.
incapable of contact with it, i refused to use the normal way of ridding bugs(the tissue way).
i used the squishing way. i used a tissue box and slammed real hard. and i swear, the squashing sound still traumatizes me. arg. reminds me of the bug experience in thailand.
i'll tell you abt that soon.
and after that, i just let go of the box and just switched off the lights and slept.
i couldnt bear to clear it up.
i begged joey to help me the next morning.
arg.yuk.
and you know, i have no idea why i vounteered this sick and pointless story.
okay moving on..
monday:dreary dreary monday. aren't most mondays, if not all.
my only consolation?
it's a four day week!
haha. anyway, it's DJW (Discover Jesus Week) in MGS! hurrah.
no first periods till thurs!
haha.
anyway.
three things today:
1. good looks gets you to alot of places, if not, everywhere.2. i was hugely amused during biology class today by how plants reproduced (have sex, to put it very very simply) and not to mention, kinda grossed out at the thought of eating the ovary of the plant. i know, i border on bimbotic by saying that. but really. this IS my blog. haha.3. my lao shi spent an excruciating 40mins going thru ONE composition. whoever wrote it, pls, slaughter her.anyway. the first point is the one that matters today.
for DJW, we had a caucasian pastor, and he's kinda, cute. and the way he speaks, i lke..
it's planned i tell you.
specially to make us pay attention during chapel.
cheap tactic,
but it works! haha.
normally, chapel time is snoozing time cos it's a monday morning. DOH.
BUT, today, the congregation was surprisingly energetic and engaged.
hah! no prizes for guessing why.
but here are cases that triggered this post.
case study 1:anna and i were bored outta our minds and observing and scrustinising people. this gal, lets call her J, walked by and was all bouncy and noisy. she jumped around and laughed boisterously. her redeeming point, she was pretty. then, suddenly, she reminded me of this other gal, D. she was okay, i'll give it to you, ugly, to me at least. there isnt another way to go around it. J's actions were almost identical to D's, yet we didn't deem it "annoying, irritating, spastic, retarded". it's the same thing as a pretty girl who flirts wildly, and an ugly/fat one who does the same thing. which is a turn off?
case study 2: the cute pastor today got away with absolutely everything today. all his lame jokes, lame games. and even though we could hardly rmb his message, im sure most of us wouldnt mind his returning to us. ha ha ha. he played this game which required the whole hall to stand up, and we were on our feet within 5 secs. which is really, a feat, considering we take about all of 15secs usually since half of us are snoozing. and all his lame jokes, we laughed, he lame games, we played. however, the same behaviour wouldnt be tolerated by say, a skinny gawky pastor with acne, wearing a yellow flower-printed shirt, would it?
haha.
life is unfair, ain't it?
and i am acutely aware that
i dun sound too convincing.
but considering that it's 2am and that my brain's full of
BIOLOGY, what with synapses, intermediate neurones, photoreceptors and islets of langerhan.
i declare myself forgiven.
ha ha.
good night
sunshines.
i'll post something coherent soon.
cross my heart.
