it's the end of the week!
so what's been new and happenin' in my life? last check: nothing! if not for today being j8 day with the girls, it would have been a complete waste of time. PE with the himbo revolved around throwing tennis balls up into the air, hitting them across half the court, and then running across in unison with the rest of the class to retrieve the balls and begin the process again. like i could almost have fallen asleep during PE. and the only thing stopping me from ponning the period altogether was the thought of coffeebean and food later on at j8. especially since i had to listen to hunger pangs from both my growling stomach and my partner, fishie, who for 40 minutes verbalised her decision-making process for choosing between crystal jade chicken wings, roast duck rice, bread talk and KFC as her lunch preference(s).
anyway, it appears that the rest of the girls in class are concurrently on diets, albeit for different reasons. feifei dearest is trying to lose 1kg so that she can qualify as lightweight in her upcoming judo competition, chrees and nicole think that their faces are fat, fishie has been told by her maid that she's "getting chubby", and wanling (who has no need to lose any weight whatsoever) is accompanying feifei and chrees. and so, they have all taken to bringing ham-and-cheese sandwiches to school for lunch, which have been deemed "healthy" by our resident dietician josie. it's a good thing we didn't get chased out of coffeebean. after lunch somebody had the bright idea of taking a group neoprint, which as usual, turned out highly spasticated and unflattering. i think i should just give up on taking photos; cameras hate me. anyway because of this little neoprint escapade, we ended up having to run all the way back to school for chem prac, during which i could feel my Ice-blended Malibu Dream bobbing up and down between my stomach and the back of my throat. it was a most disgusting sensation, but at least i was getting the most mileage for the money i paid for the drink, since in effect i got to taste it twice. haha! is that gross or is that gross?
bio S was a waste of time- if i am to do well in it, then i have 6 months to transform myself into a book-hugging nerd who can randomly spit out the full scientific names of various genes in our body. like gee, that'd have great practical applications in later life- imagine how much easier it'd be to fight a cold flu if you know exactly which part of your cell's DNA is being assaulted! as i was saying, i need to become a nerd. my target is to mug the whole of the 1500 page Campbell bio textbook. once Campbell is my friend, i shall proceed to memorise scientific journals. cambridge markers had better watch out! ha ha ha!
joseph (ie josie) had a number of burning questions today. one of which is not repeatable here as it is clearly the working of a sick brain. another one is quite interesting though- if identical twins have exact genetic makeups, then technically one of them can get away with murder and blame it on the other, because nobody'd be able to prove from DNA who's at fault. apparently there was this guy who screwed his twin's wife and got her pregnant, and then went to court to fight for custody of the kid. but because DNA tests couldn't tell which twin fathered the kid, and because of the absurdity of the case, the judge ended up granting joint custody to the guys. and also, how did siamese twins chang and eng manage to get it on with different women, PLUS have several kids while at it? singaporeans should be ashamed of our birth rates, because if siamese twins can do it, then surely -you- can do it too!
to finish off the week, i decided to run around the track, and was surprised that joseph volunteered to accompany me. at first i was apprehensive because guys tend to be of the "i'm so hot, i did my 2.4 in 9 minutes" mentality and love to show off how they can sprint 6 laps without breaking into a sweat. and that is NOT my idea of a jog. but luckily joseph is a decent guy, as far as guys these days go at least, and so there was none of that nonsense. i think his girlfriend has it real good because he's clearly very much committed to her too, which is something she shouldn't take for granted because joseph is seriously one of the best materials for boyfriends that i've seen in a long long long while. i hope he invites me to their wedding someday, which, seeing how things are going, may not be that far off from now. :p
