Decided to change the skin back to the chocolate one due to the fact that the tagboard can't be accessed when viewed with Internet Explorer.

Anyway, I have been getting so much homework lately!
I could have ripped out all my hair when the teachers kept piling up homework on us. Mel was so stressed today cos of the pre-U sem thing. She was so pissed off with the last minute video thing. Actually, everyone was so stressed up today.
Yesterday, I talked to Ms Soh during choir and she was telling me how terrible our essay outlines were and that she was going to blast us the following day during tutorial.
And she did.
I think it was the worst history tutorial ever. Lol. I think Ms Soh was also a second away from tearing her hair out as well. I could tell how frustrated she was when the class kept asking her about writing a balanced essay. The class was very moody during tutorial too. To sum it all up, it sucked. I think the worst part was when she told those whose work was unsatisfactory to finish it by 2 or they would get detention. Quite insane. Nevertheless, after she witnessed a few people crying ( I shan't say who so as not to embarrass them), Anne asked for an extention and she gave them till monday morning. Well Ms Soh's usually very nice, but I guess today she was just doing her job of reprimanding us.
I wasn't really moody or anything today, just a bit uncomfortable cos some of my classmates were, excluding Jason of course, the perkiest one in class haha. Well I guess we can always count on Jason to lighten the mood ;)

Ms Chia was so funny today. She came in during break to help the 2nd intakers with their maths. Mel and I remained in class to finish lit while she taught them. We chatted with her a little while she taught them. It went something like this:
Ms Chia: Melissa you take KI ah?
Mel: Yeah
Ms Chia: You have to write and write right?
Mel: *laughs* Yeah!
Ms Chia: I see you do now until so
xing ku. Come to science lah, so much easier.
Me: *looks over and laughs*
Ms Chia: *
chants while waving her maths worksheet* Come to science, come to science
*Mel and I both burst out laughing
Ms Chia: *A few seconds later* Eh Samuel you take arts ah? You don't look like those arts students leh. You have the science look.
Me: Science look? Is there such a thing?
Mel: Ms Chia so you're saying he looks like a nerd lah.
Ms Chia: No it's just that arts students are like those kind of wild, funky kind.
Mel: So you're saying that he's not?
Me: *laughs
Ms Chia: *looks exasperated but going to laugh* Melissa, shut up.
It was damn funny... Haha after she said that we were laughing and laughing cos she said it so matter-of-factly. Ms Chia's like one of the most hilarious teachers we have... Lol

We had the feet-washing ceremony today. So Jason washed my feet and I washed his. Most of the people who attend religion class washed each other's feet. It was interesting cos we don't usually do it in my church.

Another funny thing happened today:
Jason: *out loud* Hey does anyone want to go see a movie today?
Anne: *walking past* Jason did you just ask me out for a movie?
Me: Ooooh Jason....
Anne: *turns around and walks to Michele* Michele! Jason asked me out for a movie!
Michele: *after 1 second* AAAAAAH! JASON!!!
I was like laughing so much after that. I think only T4 people would understand the joke.

I think it was at least the 10th time that I told the Britain, Russia and China joke when I was asked by the class to tell it to Ms Soong today while they all yelled the punchline. I guess the jokes are funniest when we are willing to laugh at ourselves. Like Mrs Neo said "We must all learn to laugh at ourselves" which I find very true, although I find it hard most of the time. Lol.

Good Friday's tomorrow. Will do a special post for that. Until then, that's all!
I'll end of with some interesting lyrics to a song which I find very interesting. Take a moment to listen to the song. It's nice.
Riding through the city on my bike all day, 'Coz the filth took away my license.It doesn't get me down and I feel OK,'Coz the sights that I'm seeing are priceless.Everything seems to look as it should, But, I wonder what goes on behind doors. A fella looking dapper - and he's sitting with a slapper, Then I see it's a pimp and his crack whore.You might laugh - you might frown, Walking round London town(Chorus) Sun is in the sky, oh why, oh whyWould I wanna be anywhere else? Sun is in the sky, oh why, oh whyWould I wanna be anywhere else? When you look with your eyes, Everything seems nice... But, if you look twice, You can see it's all lies.(Verse 2)There was a little old lady, Who was walkin down the road, She was struggling with bags from Tesco. There were people from the city havin' lunch in the park, I believe that is called 'al fresco'. When a kid came along to offer a hand, But before she had time to accept it, Hits her over the head - doesn't care if she's dead, 'Cause he's got all her jewellery and wallet.You might laugh - you might frown, Walkin round London town. (Chorus) Sun is in the sky, oh why, oh whyWould I wanna be anywhere else? Sun is in the sky oh why, oh whyWould I wanna be anywhere else? When you look with your eyes, Everything seems nice... But, if you look twice, You can see it's all lies.Life, yeah that city life, yeah that city life, yeah that city life... Life, yeah thats city life, yeah thats city life, yeah thats city life. (Chorus) Sun is in the sky, oh why, oh whyWould I wanna be anywhere else? (x4)When you look with your eyes, Everything seems nice... But, if you look twice, You can see it's all lies.When you look with your eyes, Everything seems nice... But, if you look twice, You can see it's all lies.
