the three days
:
National Day was BORING,to put it in a word.
The house was packed with at least ten of my relatives,most well above the acceptable weight of people who live in this side of the world.(They're helping balance out the fact I'm well below the acceptable weight of people who live in this side of the world.)(Go ahead and slap me across the face if you're jealous.The people of 2C want to do that everytime it comes to height and weight.)
Why?To get me out of bed and to end my sixteen-hour sleep?
Oh no.
For Seventh Month,of course.
At least they didn't barge in and make me join in their stuff.For the most part.
11am.
Mum:GET OUT HERE!
Me:What.
Mum:*gives me two 50 cent coins* Flip them.That way we'll be able to know if your godma's here.
Me:*What can two coins do?* *flips once*
Mum:Two heads!No,no,this won't do.Here take these three joss sticks and pray to her,and tell her you're here.*vivi does as told* Now,FLIP AGAIN!
Me:*The probability of getting two heads or two tails are 0.25 each,while the probability of getting a head and tail is 0.5 because it can be one head and one tail or one tail and one head.Hence the probability of me getting out of here is 0.5* *flips again*
Mum:TWO TAILS!What's wrong with you?Again!
Me:*This is NOT my lucky day.Why can't they get Dad to do it?* *flips again*
Mum:TWO TAILS AGAIN?!Are you following in the school of Japanese prayer?It does not take three claps in Taoism to call out the spirits.TRY AGAIN!Shall I ask you to take a bath?
Me:*What has a bath got to do with this?* *flips*
Mum:Ok she's here.NOW GO AND TAKE A BATH.
Me:But I'm done!
Mum:TAKE.A.BATH.

NB:The following is potentially damaging to people who don't watch South Park or Family Guy or are otherwise not open to mature themes.I don't understand religion.People going to the extent of injuring themselves,respecting the dead and all.I don't believe a word of it.Not from any religion.This may sting to the rest of you out there who have a religion,but for me there is no god.It's all hallucinations to me,and should there be a god,let him,or her,or them,or it,come out and face me.I will not change what the rest of you think,but O'Brien said that we must learn to work without success.I won't will anything to the forces of God,because I don't believe in one,and because I believe there isn't one.I believe this life is what we make of it,and nothing more.There is no higher power than the leaders of the world,and I'm comfortable with that.There may be life out there in space,but whether or not they are of a higher intelligence than us is none of my concern.I will live my thirteen-and-ten-point-five-months life with as much independence as I can help.
And all those joss sticks,they're used to pray to the dead right?
If joss sticks are used to pray to the dead,they'll give people black lung diesase in the long run when the ash starts flying around.So,effectively,though with very little chance of happening...
If we pray to the dead using joss sticks,
we may soon join the dead,
and be prayed to with joss sticks,
which will continue on till many of the joss stick users and their neighbours die of pulmonary diseases.
(That's lung diseases,for the people who don't understand.)
I hate joss sticks.I got burnt by the wax on a neighbouring candle trying to poke one in the place you put joss sticks after praying once.They stink too.
Moving on.
Watched the first 13 FMA eps straight.O how I love FMA now!
Then went for fireworks.
Sprinted there.
THE FIREWORKS ROCKED!
But after that from running there almost immediately after dinner (and for intoxicating my system with almost three cans of Pepsi Twist),I got a very bad case of The Most Common Digestive Problem Which Happens To Naruto.
Next day.
Finished stuff for drama production for Chinese period.My group wanted to volunteer to go first.We had a lot of props.And a DRESS CODE!
Played Monopoly,in which there were no winners.But who cares,it's not real money.
I'm NOT crushing on him ^^!
I only go pink because when he walks past people are usually talking to me,so it gets a bit awkward sometimes when they turn around and tell me he's there.(Thank you "Captain Obvious"es!)So I'm not going pink because of HIM,I'm going pink because of THEM.As for the part where I think he's cute,it's because I have a different idea on "cute".
HAHAHA.
Today!
Came into AS2 for the production with a black shirt,jeans and my Cedar tie.I thought for a bit that I was going for another Ronin concert.Me and Yanting were Best Dressed Couple!(We're not married,in a relationship or anything.That was a joke.)The two of us were the nameless Zou3 Gou3,or rather the sidekicks of the loanshark.
Story:The author person(hereafter known as AP) sees his mother try to pick up her shui3 jing1 bao1(i don't know what that is)(hereafter known as SJB) and goes to buy some for his mother.40km away Ling Mei sells SJB,and AP comes to buy six of them.Then Kagura's theme plays (the really fast one) and the loanshark and his sidekicks (me and Yanting) come and he demands his money.Ling Mei runs,and is chased by AP and the loanshark who's a little bit behind AP,who is chased by his sidekicks.The sidekicks say,"Our boss!",followed by the loanshark who says,"My money!",followed by the AP who says,"My SJB!",followed by Ling Mei who says,"My life!".The loanshark shoots,and the AP falls in a missed shot.Meanwhile the sidekicks take off with the loanshark's chair and fan,saying they can sell it.
The loanshark moves off as well,and Ling Mei takes him to see his family,ie. his wife,mother and child.
At this point I change character and run back in.
AP dies after making a speech about how he is going far away and how his wife must take care of the family,while JJ Lin plays in the background.His mother promises never to eat SJB again.The end.
Gave everyone a pretty good laugh,and made me and Yan Ting the best dressed people in the entire Aesthetics Studio.
Nothing much else to report for now.
BB!
