World going nuts indeed* edited

A picture of one of the funnier April Fool joke that was pulled on the school. Quite ingenious don't you think?

The title probably doesn’t have anything whatsoever to do with the entry but I decided to use it anyway, just for some kicks. Okay, never mind, ignore this sudden moment of insane babbling that is incoherent to all.

My weekend has totally been burned doing weird random stuff that I had not initially planned to do but carried them out anyway. Just to set the record straight, I don’t usually have much to do on weekends and this is one of the few rare occasion where boredom actually gives way to many opportunities for me to be able to wander out of the house with an actual reason that won’t make my life sadder than it already is, at some point in time that is. Technically, there is some sort of friendly match against SPANS toa payoh today which became optional on Thursday for those who aren’t as skilled as others. I was considering whether I should go to show my support and all but the power of the television swayed my decision otherwise. I just spent a good portion of the day watching the “Desperate Housewife” marathon on Starworld. Even though disappointed by the fact that Charmed was pushed aside due to this, I would have to comment on the fact that I have just rediscovered why I fell in love with the show in the beginning.

All the ugly undone Chinese homework that the demon-ness of doom had unleashed upon my class is currently shoved to the back of my brain. It is instead replaced by my want to blog about what happened yesterday. Fortunately for me, my ,so called, thirst for blogging seems to be crawling its way back into my miserable life and now I take the time to seat myself down and make an effort to pen down the happenings of the day(s) which I would like the remember twenty or thirty years from now. Hopefully blogger won’t go crashing down on us like how diary-x did. I bet people like Xiaxue will throw a major bitch fit and start lawsuits with every single employee that works for blogger.

Anyway, enough with the digressing, I shall move on to what went on yesterday, which, incidentally enough, was April fools day. I was late in my arrival for the game, Cashflow, which the IP2s were to be playing for today, a part of our helmsman financial literacy week programme. Don’t be surprised that we are actually playing board games as part of our curriculum; we are even doing YOGA tomorrow as a form of relaxation before whatever the teachers would be putting forth to us in the next five days. Somehow, my parents must have adopted some sort of mentality that the child must always be earlier than them. I am in total awe at the fact that my bloody parents were rushing me out of bed to shower and have my breakfast so that I won’t be late and that they could drop me off at school on time, when in reality, they were still getting changed, watering the plants and filling in their 4D numbers when I was standing at the porch fully donned in school uniform and impatiently waiting for them to get a move on.

Ironically, I wished that I arrived later and got to miss more of the boring presentation that was put up for us to endure for the first hour of the day. Up till now, I still don’t get why teachers or even adult for that matter put up presentations that are so long, dreary and monotonous when they know in their heads that teenagers at this age of adolescence would not be able to sit still and keep quiet, much less pay attention. That aside, I managed to find someway to keep myself alive and awake till the end of the presentation. The playing of the game was quite a slow process because there were rules that had to be explained to us and it took some time for most people, even myself, to comprehend.

Cashflow is not a game for the impatient or the kind hearted. If would raise your blood pressure to a whole new level and it takes manipulation, shrewdness and cunning skills to excel at this game. This is precisely why it came as such a surprise to me when I actually won the title of earning the most cash in hand for the morning session. I guess I must have lucked out with all the shares that I had bought. I mean, how often do you get to buy shares that cost only $1 and sell 300 000 of them at $50? The prize was some weird boring book that I would probably not read anytime soon and a $20 borders voucher. Haha, this is like the first time I am actually winning something, quite sad no?


Forgive the bad photography, I took this picture just before it was my turn and I was too lazy to take another picture after that.

Lunch at parkway was quite a hassle because somehow, it seemed that every Singaporean had decided to go to parkway for lunch that day. The only place that we could find that was also affordable at the same time was Yoshinoya. There was this fashion show going on and if I’m not wrong, the clothes that were being paraded were from Topshop. I just realized that all those stick thin models, when in an attempt to achieve the figure that they had, had to give up breasts. They were all painfully flat and I wonder if they think that this is what is considered to having a good figure.



I didn’t want to go home just yet because it would seem like a pretty sad way to end the day, so Yvonne and I made our way back to school, of course hatching a devious scheme to play an April fools joke on the rest while we were on the bus.


Haha, I took this outside the electives hub while waiting for the rest to be dismissed.

It was quite amusing at first because we thought that we had managed to convince everyone that we were together. Haha. But of course our plans were foiled when I foolishly went to call YY who, according to the grapevine, saw through or heard through the fakeness of it all when I was talking to her. And according to the rest, they all figured it out when we were on the bus to bugis after the second group had finished their Cashflow session. That meant that all the acting that the two of us put up were actually uncalled for. Lol.

For the first time in a long time, we took neoprints that I thought looked nice. Haha, my scanner isn’t good enough to scan them so I shall post them if someone ever does scan and upload them for me to get. Haha, I guess that about wraps up what happened since the last time I posted.


A picture on the MRT. Just showing that Nicole, Darren and I wore brown shoes on that day.

The neos that we took which I was too lazy to scan so i stole it off Nicole's blog. Haha.
