Tuesday, May 8

Today was yet another monotonous and mundane day. i had several bouts of laughter though. The first one happened early in the morning, after pager told me about the pissed off taxi driver who exclaimed:"those passengers! they always ask me to drop them at the double yellow lines! My car got number plates one leh! Can get summons! Those passengers where got numberb plates??" it was said in chinese, way funnier then what it sounds like on screen. i went into tiny fits of laughter. i think i was knd of laughing through out the entire assembly, for various reasons. And i just realised-we didnt get to sing the school song today.


The second bout of lauhgter came during PE, where me, pager sherf and qiao were laughing over "the black tweety bird". And i really do think that this term is aptly used. After PE was econs. When miss lee asked yihui a Q, i pondered over what she said carefully:" for fixed cost you have fixed factors of production, so for variable cost you have...?" i frowned for a spilt second. "unfixed?" i muttered under my breath. For a moment i thought i had spoken it out loud. then i realised that it was yihui, repeating my answer, which i had helpfully offered. For some unknown reasons, the class started laughing, i laughed too, because everyone else were laughing, and i kind of felt a teeny bit of embarrassment. miss lee looked amused though, "maybe you guys can help her with her vocabulary?" oh gosh, my fault. i bet yihui's vocab list is ten times more than my own. bleagh.


Pw lesson came and went. but at the end of it i was starting to wonder, maybe providing solutions to others can be my rice bowl after all.



Chem lesson was a complete failure. i was practically laughing for as long as i could remember. i cant rmb all the funny things but pz clearly owned us all. i was listening to the fan go "heng heng heng" away and humming along with it to irritate sherf. (my new found hobby. i realised tt herirritated expression is seriously worth the trouble...not that there's any trouble though. i do get amused by myself at times too.)

And then pager turned arnd and stared at us with an almost childlike innocence. In a matter of fact tone, she asked, "you're holding a convo with the fan?" it was as if doing that was the most normal thing in the world and it is usual to see ppl chatting to fans. me and sherf burst into fits of hysterical laughter while pz made a face and turned backm and sheena was still in a world of her own, oblivious to our laughter but attentive to the teacher in front. Several minutes later, i noticed that the fan had stopped singing its little tune and pointed that out to sherf. She suggested that we let pager know about it. trying my best to control my growing laughter, i blurted out,"pager! the fan stopped talking." pz stared straight into our eyes and noted, "yes. the conversation has ended"



following tt, i suddenly thought about equality. not equality betwen man and women but equality in general. i realised tt nothing is ever equal. in work. school. friends. love. families. someone is bound to put in more effort, gain more credit, be liked more than others, love others more than they love them, biased. you can never treat your friends with equality no matter how hard you try. in most cases the more fortunate ones would have frens who love them more than they do and place them as first priority. yet such ppl never fail to take things for granted, until they learn of the pain of placing ur fren as first priority only to find urself to be last on her priority list.



oh gosh. its so late already. GPP!
