Last Day of Hai Experiential Week

Today's the last day of CHINESE MARATHON!!!
YAY!!! \(^0^)/

We had another talk.. By a renowned (or so they claim) author whose name I don't know.
She's a lady with... Some age.
And an extremely monotonous voice. =_=

Nobody was listening to her at all.
I kinda pity her, by it was so boring. I did everything to keep myself awake, and got scolded by V. (A friend, not V Dawg.) D':
She scolded me for making noise and said that it was very rude (well it was, but come on! It's either talk or sleep. Guess what I chose.). She was staring at the screen (yes the author read off slides. Sigh...) but wasn't listening either.
Others were doing their homework during the talk. Even worse.
At least I didn't talk all the time. Only at short intervals. :)

Well after that talk we went back to class and had to do a COMPOSITION! (Boos)
Well actually we were required to do both letter and compo, but I didn't have time and didn't wanna care, so only did the compo.
The teacher there (not my usual teacher) let the express Chinese students in my class (yes we shared the class today since there wasn't enough space) COPY word for word BOTH ESSAYS!!
But I'm more honest (:P) and actually did the compo myself.
That's why I didn't bother to do the letter haha.

School ended at 12+!!!!!!
WHOOOOO~~~~~~~
We ate in school, and by the time we got ready to leave it was like, only 1.10pm!!!
SO HAPPY~
It's been so long. :')

After school I went to Tampines Mall with Donkey and Jade. :DD
But we were all so tired and didn't have much energy at all.
Shopped for like, 1 hr, (with Jade wanting the go home the whole time D: ) then went home..
Shortest shopping ever.

So in the end I bought two GIGANTIC Hershey bars, one for each birthday girl...
Belated presents haha. d;
Very tempted to eat them right now. T_T
The bars are sitting in my fridge~~
Ugh I just made myself hungry. Well it's about time for dinner anyway. 6.27 pm..

And here ends my normal, boring day. ^^
I was so tired that I fell asleep first thing when I got home.

C: The First Incident

Well I was reading my previous post, To My Darling C: May You Rot In School Forever and decided to tell the first story since I'm bored. (Actually I just don't want to study...:P)

C is a female Chinese teacher of my school.
Since I take HMT (Higher Mother Tongue.. Which in my case is Chinese), I had my express Chinese 'O' Level paper in secondary 3.
So last year, somewhere in March or April, my school organized a Chinese Oral examination for us HCL sec 3s and express sec 4s.
That was my first and only Chinese oral in school.. Pathetic.
Luckily some smart teacher appealed for a school oral examination or we would all die come 'O' Level paper.

Anyway, I have extremely bad karma when it comes to C (as is evident), and I got her as my oral examiner.
At that time I recognised her as one of the teachers in charge of choir, but didn't know her in depth so was neutral towards her.
Well the read-aloud part was fine but the problem came during the conversation.
For conversations, the teacher had to ask the candidate questions which the candidate will answer.
Well she was MUMBLING so softly that I couldn't hear so I requested for her to repeat again.
And again.
The third time I asked, (yes I STILL couldn't make out her words) she got fed up and spoke the question IN ENGLISH.
I mean, COME ON!!! I understand chinese PERFECTLY but she obviously had trouble SPEAKING the language!!!
I BET SHE TOTALLY FAILED ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So after I finally got through the ordeal, I asked other students that she tested.
Believe me when I say that NONE OF US understood her on the first try.
But I was the ONLY one that she spoke to in BLOODY ENGLISH. (Yes I'm going all Brit. N's fault.)

Needless to say, I've hated her ever since.

EPICNESS

Today was EPIC.

My friend N is an Indian, and has extremely long and curly hair.
It reaches her bum.
She also sits beside me in class, and keeps POKING ME and DISTURBING me.
Extremely ANNOYING GIRL. :p

So I've learnt the art of annoying ppl as well~
Lalala~ >D

Well I've been pestering her to let her hair down for a week or two already, 'cause I REALLY wanted to see. XD

She kept saying, 'no! Later, during recess," or "during lunch" or "tomorrow, then" etc.
Thus the 1-2 weeks of pestering.
I'm getting better at snatching her hair tie~ Lalala~
Today I snatched it TWICE!

The first time was during break, and I snatched her hair tie~
I gave it back... Eventually. :p
She promised to let it down after school.

-After school-
We were walking out of the school when I suddenly remembered her 'promise', and snatched her hair tie again. XD
And I keep trying to untangle her braids and she was like, "fine! I'll undo it myself. Hold these for me and give me back my hair tie!"
(She was holding something.)
I didn't want to give it back since I didn't trust her (obviously), but she said "give it back! I don't trust you!"
So I finally gave in and handed it to her.

AND SHE UNTANGLED HER BRAID!!
WHOOO!!!!

Aaahh.. Epic day. XD
I gathered that nobody's seen her with her hair let down cause I heard WR, N's bf since sec1, say 'she never listened to me before!'
HAHAHAHA!!
So I replied, "I'm very good at persuading you know?"  ;)

Note: I realise that the conversations sound very rude, but they were playful so weren't rude at all... Well this is how we usually talk to each other. XD
Full of laughter, of course.

Best Programme Of Secondary 4

These 3 days- Wed, Thurs, Fri- we're having the 'Hai-Experiential Week'. =_=
Like, UGH!

Sec 1s get to do CSI.. So unfair. T_T
Sec 2s made some water thing today.. So fun.. T_T
Sec 3s went for outings.. Unfair. T_T

Wanna know what the sec 4s are doing? We're doing INTENSIVE CHINESE TRAINING!!!
BOO..!! D':

Yesterday was the first day. The whole day Chinese wanted to DIE. Seriously. 7.45 to 12+ Chinese ALL THE WAY. *Cries*

But the programme was ok cause the school invited this lyric writer, 小寒 (xiao han, female), to give a talk.
Since our AVA room wasn't big enough, the different classes had diff timings. HCL and Band 1 students attended the talk first. It was actually quite interesting, cause she talked about her life experience etc.
Didn't learn anything about writing Chinese though. =.=

小寒 had scored a PhD in Biology!!! She was a researcher you know!!! Really smart girl.
But she gave up her job to write lyrics, cause she loved doing it. FYI, she's a Singaporean but sells her lyrics to Taiwan artists. Why? Cause Sg entertainment business has no future what-so-ever!

Then we went for a break after it ended at like 10+. After break we had Chinese lesson.. Sigh.. Did a composition that is to be counted in our mid-years!!! And I totally screwed that up. UGH.

Ok that's that. Today was much more fun. ^^

The schl invited these people to come to our schl and talk about religion.. They're called REDEMPTORIST MISSION TEAM. They didn't actually center around religion, but there was a 'Father'. So.

Their group consists of 4 ppl: Vanessa aka V Dawg, Samatha aka Mantha Panther, Prim aka Pram or Pom, and Father smth. XD
V and M were superr outgoing and loud. V was especially dramatic, in a hip-hop sort of way.
We played games~
Yes, it sounds lame but they made it fun. XD
They kept dissing each other and the two guys. Made us laugh like siao. :'D
There were serious moments too, where they introduced the diff religions. And S shared her past experiences about self-esteem ans self-acceptance.

Then it was break time at 11.10 am-12 pm. (WHOO!!!)

After break F and P were telling the funny story of S. XD
When she first joined their group, they treated her at a steak place, with an all-you-can-eat buffet.
S forgot that she had ordered her main course, this HUGE teriyaki chicken. So when it arrived, she couldn't finish. F and P decided to trick her, telling her that the restaurant charges every morsel she didn't consume. S actually believed them and since she couldn't EAT the food, she HID them.
In the aluminium foil of the baked potato, in serviettes etc.
LOL!!!
When the table was full of food, she hid her food in the other tables!! XD
Well it's funnier when they say it.

So S was unhappy that they told her embarrassing story, so she told stories of P and F too. Hahaha P's story was AWESOME. S called it 'Genius Prim'.

S was nosing around in his office when she found some incense, so she lit it with P's permission. The whole office smelled of incense and was filled with smoke. XD
So when S had enough, she put it in a claypot, which she set on the carpet for the incense to cool. Then P came and poured the still-hot incense in the PLASTIC BIN. And he was all, "don't worry I have it under control."
Then smoke emerged from the bin, and P was like "WHATTT??? NO!!! WHAT SHLD I DO???"

So he went to the storeroom and took out... NEWSPAPER!! He put the still-hot incense on the newspaper, and was like, "don't worry I have it under control."
The newspaper started smoking (obviously), and P was like "WHATTT??? NO!!! WHAT SHLD I DO???"

So the genius Prim threw the incense on the CARPET. When warned, he was like "don't worry I have it under control."
Black circles starting burning around the incense bits, and P was like "WHATTT??? NO!!! WHAT SHLD I DO???"

A college, Isabel, got fed up and took the incense from the carpet and threw them in the sink. Then she on-ed the tap, dissolving the incense bits. P followed suit for the leftover bits of incense in the bin.
He POURED the whole content of the bin, including TRASH into the sink, and left the water running in the sink. LOL!!

-The End-

HAHAHA it was so funny I laughed till my stomach ached! XD

Father smth's story was even better.
He and P liked to imitate sounds for example drums, going 'bam bam ching!' Or smth like that.

So there was once when they were arguing about the sounds the copier machine made.
P was like, "it goes ch-ch-ch" and F was like, "no! For A3-sized, it goes zzzzzzzz!"
So the printing room was full of  "ch-ch zzzzzzzz, ch-ch zzzzzzzzzz."
HAHAHAHA!!
Sorry can't make the correct pronunciations with letters. XD
Use your own imagination.

Lastly they went serious again and taught us to appreciate our friends. V and S told stories abt their friends.
V's was extremely funny cause she was those.. Rebellious type?
Well she and her friends played a prank on their teacher, by dusting eraser dust on the teacher's chair and then squirting hand sanitizer on it. XD
Well long story short, the class defended her and her friends, and the whole class was forced to make public apology.
Her actions were SUPER FUNNY.

Best programme ever!! :'D
Laughed till stomach hurt. Of course, there were serious moments..
But they weren't boring. At least, not to me.

Wow very long post. Hope it was funny! ;D
