Math Pick-up Line

We had a lesson on "Marriage" during last week's moral education lesson, and a few teachers were invited up to share about their married life. One of them (a math teacher) commented on her relationship with her husband by saying,

"He is sine squared and I am cosine squared; we come together to become ONE."




The formula:

Amazing pick-up line hahahaha! XD

Just a little tip for those trying to impress math girls out there LOL~

I Got Scammed

So a few days ago.... I was scammed by a bunch of damn durian vendors. They came to my doorstep to sell durians, and me not ever having buy durians before, had no idea the price of durians. So I called my mom and she told me that she bought durians for like $5 per durian and normal vendors sold them at like $8 per kilo ( that's what I heard), so when the vendor offered $7 per kg, I didn't think that it was that expensive. Turns out, two durians were 7+ kg and costed $49!!! My parents could have bought two durians at $10!!

What's worse, the vendors couldn't even be bothered to give me two normal-quality durians. One was dried out but had a lot of fruit; the other was good but only had like 3 pieces of meat. So I was scammed into paying $49 for like total 12 pieces of durian meat.

$49 for 12 freaking pieces

The vendor even had the nerve to ask me to give them water because they were THIRSTY. So me, being the ever kind person, gave them a BOTTLE of water. He even tried to scam me out of my $1 change!!

Of course I felt stupid. Heck, I cried and kept scolding myself for being so damned dumb and gullible. Then 2 hours of grief later, I started to get angry. WHO ARE THEY, that they have the right to cheat a girl's innocence? WHO THE HECK ARE THEY to scam the hard-earned money of an honest man?

Whoever you are, if I ever see you again, I WILL SLAM THE DURIAN SHELLS INTO YOUR FACE.

 

IMAGINE THIS COLLIDING WITH YOUR DAMNED FACES

Luckily my mom and dad are really understanding people (their way of teaching me. It would've been another scenario had it been my brother hahaha...) 'cause they know that I'll beat myself up over this. My Dad practically LAUGHED IN MY FACE and kept saying "my daughter got scammed~" Not sure if I prefer this over some nagging.... Probably yes.

Anyway the next day, my mum drove me to school (weekly occurrence now haha) and we talked a bit.

My mum mentioned the standard three stages of repenting:

1. Guilt 

     You keep blaming yourself and feel really stupid

2. Levelling

     You start to realise that it isn't entirely your fault

3. Anger
     You feel that you are not to blame and put all the blame on the other party


And where you finally end at defines on your character. Most people always end up in stage 3 and always push the blame on everyone else. Those people are the most annoying (like my Dad and bro).

For me, I've learnt to never trust young vendors. Always bargain half-price. Plus I'll remember that bastard's face.

Plus, durians cost roughly $6 per durian (for normal quality ones) and those that really cost $20 per durian are the high-quality ones.
Good durians have very, very strong smell. Not-so-good ones do not emanate durain smell.

I've learnt how to buy durians at least.

Hit My Head... Again

Hello~ Very busy with my studies now since there are... Around 85 days to A-Levels. So scary. >_<

Anyway, now that NAFTA is over (National Physical Fitness Assessment), we get to play games. We have two PE periods every week and mine is on Monday and Thursday, so we get to choose electives for each of the days. I'm in squash on Mondays and gymnastics on Thursdays.

Well last week during gym, the teacher made us try forming different structures like pyramids... Gymnastic-y stuff. I grouped with Lizzy and Priya. Priya is like 170cm. Lizzy is 165+ cm. I am 155 cm tall (fun size!).
Like usual, the lightest one is the one as the tip of the pyramid, which is me unfortunately. I have to step on their thighs and hoist myself up.

Needless to say, I fell backwards and landed on my head. My whole body fell unto the mats... Except my head. Such is my luck (like seriously??). The universe is set on changing the shape of my head before I graduate JC. I still have the bump from last year's orientation. Still have that bald spot too. Now my hair is super thin. T_T

Lizzy and Priya felt very guilty and they dubbed me the most fragile person in the world hahaha. They really freak out every time I stumble or something and wouldn't approach me during gym. XD
Quite fun hahaha (imma sadist).

Of course it's not their fault. It's gym. Of course people will fall. I was just that unlucky to hit my head on the floor. I mildly sprained my neck and the tendons and muscles in my neck felt really sore for 3 days straight and I couldn't turn my head much. Lucky for me, my Dad is a trained medical personnel (he's that pastor who will pray for all the injured soldiers during war, so he knows more-than-basic medical treatment) and he massaged my neck every night for 3 days until the soreness went away~

Both my parents fussed over me and its was sooooo awesome. xD
I'm not that noble to not take advantage of my injury hahaha.

What I do have complaints about is the way the PE teacher reacted. I hit my head and instead of letting me go get ice for my head, he instead started talking to the class about how important it is to be careful when doing gymnastics using me as an example, and after that he forced me to climb up again. I kept saying that I needed to ice my head, and it was obvious from Lizzy and Priya's face that they were worried but did he take heed? Nooooo. And then because he didn't want me to fall backwards again, he kept pushing me forwards and I couldn't balance myself and this time I jumped off.

Dear people out there, a head injury is no scratch on the knee. It has to be treated immediately or things will get worse exponentially (infections!!!). The first time I hit my head, I had to wait an hour before they let me clean my wound. I had tiny gravel fragments sticking to my open wounds for AN HOUR at least! What if I got serious infections? Huh??

So in the future.... Treat the wound first. Don't take any risks.

Anyway, my song of the (last) week haha:

Goodbye and Happy National Day! (9/8)

.... in case I don't post again in time.
