Dorai didn't do anything after all.
Turns out after I left, Syaz and company went to the computer lab to do the NE quiz and found out it'd been cancelled. So they were understandably pissed and went to seek out Dorai for an apology because she'd yelled at them for nothing...and they found her in the AVT. Only Dorai didn't even dare come out to meet them. In the end, ESeah apologized for the confusion in the schedule. Sheesh.
That aside, today was pretty fun again. Went to the Botanic Gardens for a picnic [one of the post-exam activities]. On the way, Priya and Sylvia started discussing football while the rest of us listened, trying to act as if we knew something about what they were talking about. Presently, started talking aout the girl who was raped by 8 footballers [identities as yet unknown]
Me: Who were they anyway?
Priya: *suddenly grabs my arm* ARSENAL! It MUST be Arsenal! I want them jailed!
Me: What's wrong with Arsenal??
Sylvia: *starts choking* Have you seen their fans? They all look dead! Its a dead team!
Priya: *to me* Aiya...because they're lousy...and they rape people...oh wait...*turns to Sylvia* it could be Owen also hoh.
Sylvia: He's married leh.
Priya: So what? He's still dumb.
Me: Mmm...ok...um. So how's Beckham?
Priya: *immediately* He's an idiot lar.
Me: ??? I thought you loved him!
Priya: That was before he left Man U.
Me: Oh....*pause* I thought he was fired.
Priya: *appalled at my ignorance* NO!!!!! He quit because of his wife! She didn't want to live in England and now she realizes she doesn't want to live in Spain either, and they haven't even got a house there...living in a hotel...oh and you know what -
Spent 45 minutes walking to the Botanic Gardens from school. Then we just spent a little over an hour there and took another 40 minute walk back :| Kinda wasted actually.
We spent more time feeding the fishes and the turtles there than ourselves. Fed them the bread from the hotdog first. Then Priya and I stole Ann's egg sandwiches and just squatted by the bank throwing pieces of Sunshine bread into the lake. Very engrossing. Can fishes eat eggs? Some egg fell inside. Sherry said later it might poison the fishes. Argh.
I realize when I experience severe fatigue [eg: when taking a 45 minute walk from the Botanic Gardens back to school] I display typical symptoms of intoxication. Seriously. And so do Gwen, Pea and Ann for that matter.
*walking past Tanglin Mall. Dead tired*
Ann: *starts singing the Superman theme* Somebody saaaaaaaaaaaavee meeeeeee.....
Gwen: Ahahah ey where's Clark? Where's Clark?! Where's Clark, Ann??!!!! He should be coming to save you! Whoooo!!! *imitates Clark running*
Ann: I WANT ORLANDO!!!!! *sings again* I'm more than a biiiird...more than a plaaaane...
Me: *whining* Lets take a bus back to schoool...please....*swings frisbee around violently* a taxi...anything, anything...*starts rolling the frisbee down the street and chasing after it*
Pea: *slurs* Dorai.....sucks, I tell you..I want to put...a bomb...in her table and watch it explode and see...all the lard splatter -
Ann: *singing again* On top of old smokey all covered with sand, i shot my poor teacher with a green rubberbaaaand...
Pea: - across the staffroom....the minute fat globules...*sadistic smile* And you know if we make soup out of her right...
Ann: -I shot her with pleasure i shot her with pride, i couldn't have missed her she was forty feet wide
Pea: - the layer of oil will be like this thick! *wild gesture with hands. Grins to herself*
Gwen: *wondering* Should I take off my skirt here? I'm wearing shorts underneath....hmmmm....*staggers around then decides to strip to shorts*
Ann: -I went to her funeral i went to her grave, some people threw flowers but i threw a grenade. It blew up the city it blew up the town, it blew my poor teacher right out of the ground!!! *screams as we pass by American embassy*
All together: .....And round and round it goes! And round and round it goes! And round and round and round it goes!!!!
Pea: Hey...if this is what we're like when we're not drunk...
Sobered up when we got to the zebra crossing just opposite school. We had begun singing the Animaniacs theme song substituting the words we'd forgotten with "na-na-na-na", followed by the Pinky and the Brain one, when the security guard yelled at us from across the road to cross. But we didn't, cause the green man was flashing anyway so he got extremely pissed and told us instead not to cross anymore -we weren't in the first place ["Since you don't cross when I tell you to you jolly well stay put now blah blah"]
Drank a large cup of juice later. Helped clear my mind a lot.
Then went to the hall to watch 'Pay it Forward'. The rest went to sleep while the movie played on and woke up only to witness Haley Joel Osment get stabbed and die.
And tomorrow its back to normal lessons. gah.
We're getting back prelim results. On my birthday.
Mum: Oh GOOD!!! What a great birthday present!!
