Dear me in the future when high school will seem like it's never existed,
Today I suddenly thought that it would be interesting to write a letter to you. I hope that you can still read and have not been struck by some queer disease. I hope that your teeth are all still intact and maybe by some miraculous means, have become straight. I hope your head is not yet white nor bald and that your face is no longer so ''an'' (amanda's version of 'dark').
Anyway, in case you have forgotten how high school is like, today, there is assembly. It is a Wednesday and I am now working in the Discipline Unit under Maryann. In case you have forgotten who Maryann is, she is your kawan whose teenage blues is ''I always sleep in class" and has been told to eat more tomatoes by Pn Chua in form 2.
Assembly today is, as always, boring. Debbie was funny during prefects' briefing in expressing her frustration. ''Ahhh!", "Haiya!!!''. First 2 periods are BM. Teacher didn't come so we were free to crap. Erica came into class after awhile with some pamphlets and asked if she could paste it up at the notice board because our notice board is currently full of nothingness. So not knowing what the pamphlets were about, I said, "Just put la." The pamphlets were blue. Later on I found out, the pamphlets were actually about Penyakit Kelamin. Maxine couldn't find anything wrong with it so I told Maxine that kelamin means genitals. Then Maxine, being Maxine, asked,
"I thought kelamin is the... curtain... thingy?"
Nabila and I were dumbstrucked for a moment, wondering what she was talking about.
"That's PELAMIN la!!!"
I think Maxine is very funny. Oh, I hope you remember who Maxine is. In case you forgot again, she is your kawan who has joined tonnes of competitions with you this year (2008) and has been perceived to be "kuai" by parents. Olivia and you (or me, in this matter) used to call her "Parents' Choice". Anyway, back to my story. From that awkward conversation about kelamin and pelamin, I suddenly asked if they remembered the natural birth video we watched after PMR last year. Maxine said she does and remembered that she was shocked at the part where they cut the "hole". +.+'' I realise now that this letter is turning a bit obscene. So I shall just forward a few sentences...
Nabila then asked which is better: Natural birth or Ceaserean? Maxine said, "Of course natural birth la! Ceaserean is for old people one!" That was when we found out that Nabila was borned by Ceaserean. Then, trying to justify the way that she was born, Nabila exclaimed that even the Princess of Japan had given birth to her daughter by Ceaserean. I personally think Nabila is very funny too. In case you have forgotten Nabila, she is the only girl who would ask you how to pretend to understand her even when you don't. Anyway, Maxine then said, "You might as well said those born by Ceaserean are smarter or something!"
That was when we decided to conduct a survey. Are those born by Ceaserean really smarter? So we asked those smart people around. Turned out that the class' Top 6 are consists of 3 Ceaserean babies and 3 natural birth babies. The Top 2 are both Ceaserean babies. Hah. I think that proved Nabila's theory. Amanda claims that she is the smartest of the natural birth babies because she got 3rd. She very crap so I told her that next term, it shan't be so anymore. We shall see.
With that much crap, 2 periods of BM had whizzed by and it was soon Chemistry. During Chemistry, I was sitting with Kim, Maryann and Amanda - the table of natural birth babies. But as we were making our way to the lab, they were talking about how the name "Maxine" is derived from the name "Max". There are after all, Maxwell, Maximillian, Maximus, Maximum, etc... So I said if Maxine were to have a younger sister, her name would probably be "Minine" or "Minnie" (you know... deriving from Minimum?) Then, Maxine got kek tiok at Nabila somehow and called her,
"You leh!? Na-mengapa is it?"
Hohoho. That was when we started giving each other names, deriving from our original names. Maxine calls them the name of us in the parallel universe. Too much EST for her, I think.
Nabila (Na-bila) ---> Na-apa, Na-mengapa, Na-siapa
Maxine ---> Minine / Minnie
Kimberly (Kim-beli) ---> Kim-jual / Kim-sewa
Amanda (A-man-da) ---> A-woman-da / A-lady-da
Lip Yi ---> Mouth Yi
Olivia (O-live-a) ---> O-die-a
Emily (E-milli) ---> E-centi
Perhaps we were too free. =) Break was soon and I lived off people's fries, asking for one, then another one. Everyone at the table had bought fries so I could just ask two from each and I would be full. Knowing my scheme, Amanda asked everybody not to give me fries. In case you have forgotten Amanda... well... I suppose you can just forget her. It wouldn't matter. Wahahahhahha! (Imagines Amanda cringe) =P
It was soon duty time. My duty is at the side gate today. I met Kher Ching during duty and we talked about Kher Lee who is currently working hard to get admitted into an Ivy League U. I got so impressed that I vowed to be determined to stay determined to work hard. Hah. Isn't it obvious that I'd failed, considering what I am doing now?
Class resumed after duty and we were asked to do some diagnostic tests on Add Maths. There seems to be a Rubik's cube craze in my class at the moment. There are at least 10-15 Rubik's cubes circling around the lab (my class is at the Jr lab 1). Everyone seems to be bringing their Rubik's cube to school, I don't know why. And everyone seems eager to learn its formula save for a few. Rubik's cube... gosh... those in Western countries are playing X-Box and we are playing Rubik's cube... +_+''
Anyway, lessons soon came to an end and Erica asked for her Chicken Soup for the Soul stories which she had printed out back. Amanda laughed at the idea of printing the stories so I asked her if she reads. "Of course no la!" was her answer. I then took the papers from her to return to Erica and caught glimpse of the first sentence.
"Love is a magical, something-something feeling"
I read that sentence aloud, purposely for Amanda to hear. Amanda, being Amanda, demanded to see the sentence.
"Where?"
"There! First sentence! Love is a magical..."
"Amanda doesn't love."
"Oh ya hor. Never loved anyone before. Haihz. So sad."
"Who say?!"
"I say la. I just said it what."
"I love you leh."
"Ngaiti. So instant to defend herself."
So that's the end of today. Ok lah, just in case you are still cracking your head over who Amanda is, she is the person who cares more about her reputation and her looks than anything else in the world (she answered a survey like that herself). She is also your ''best friend'' officiated by Andrea Lau (there was a time when she tried to find a best friend for everybody). I think both of us had eternally abused that title, using it only to demand things and information. -___-'''
Esme: Who is your best friend?
Marilyn: Her best friend is Lip Yi la.
Esme: No! Everybody must have at least one best friend in her life! (goes on and on about the theory of one having a best friend for don't know how long) So who is it?
Marilyn: Lip Yi la.
Esme: ....... *speechless* Ok.... Never mind!
*car erupted in laughter*
Sign..err... letter is computerised, hence no need signature. Hahahahah!
+__+'' Shyt, so lame.
She hun because too lame
