Okay umm… I was supposed to type out this pointless bit on Chemistry on the last post. I kinda forgot.
And what else... nothing much ‘cept for the Physics Practical and my handphone.

So. Shall we begin?

Okay had Physics Practical on what I think should have been a Friday. Was it was it was it?
Whatever. What bit me really really bad was that I did everything (I KNEW MR LOH WAS GOING TO GIVE US A calculation of acceleration of gravity or something like that etc etc and so on and so forth….I KNEW IT I KNEW IT THE EVIL EVIL EVIL EVIL MAN!!!!)
Okay. There. Ranted. So I did everything and then there was this bit that said T square.
I had no idea what that meant. Was panicking a little cos was very very slow and made plenty of mistakes like once when the cork thingy slipped and my whole string nearly went ka-phoot. Screamed a little. My ruler went down and out plenty of times making Sonia look at me as if I was mad…
Calculation was a nightmare…
Stupid stinking graph!! Who’d know that T-square DOES mean T-square!!!
ARGH ARGH ARGH ARGH ARGH ARGH ARGH ARGH
I HATE PRACTICALS…………AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I cried. Cause that was like at least 5 marks down the drain.

Okay anyway,
The pointless bit on Chemistry is coming up, so watch out for it. Or not. If you’d listen to me rambling off about how scary Chemistry is then…..that’s okay. ^^

You know the bit on moles? Yeeess I never understand that chapter. I know its like dozens but … its extremely difficult for me to grasp the concept of the chapter. (Man I’m sprouting good English.) So every time I’ll spend an eon on that chapter going ‘eh?’ and referring back to the dozens of formulae found all over the place.
And now we’re on Acids and Bases. And one of everyone’s worst nightmares is me asking everyone ‘Is nickel acidic or basic?’ or ‘How about carbon? Is it neutral?’
And stupid questions like that that drive people who have good bases in Chemistry nuts. One of my best ones is,
‘You know the paper used as the Universal Indicator? How’d they use the paper to do the really strong acids like H2SO4? Doesn’t the paper like kinda dissolve?’
Then you’ll probably reply: Got the liquid form hwhat.<-not a spelling error.
‘But what if you don’t HAVE the liquid form? Hmm hmm hmm?’
Then Adeline or any other poor soul that I’m asking will give me funny looks. I found out that I can do that very well.
Driving people nuts, that is.
You know I used to think moles were literally….you know… moles…… (Coughs)
……………….
Now I know better. I hope… though I still think that very very very very small moles are in the hydrogen based acids laughing at me.
Besides, what DEFINES an acid?
The bit where the hydrogen ions giggle madly while dancing around water and electrifying them?
Or!
Um.
I dunnoe.

Okay so we move on to Saturday
I needed my handphone. Iassumed my parents had it. They confiscated it couple of months ago. They dint have it. They obviously lost it.
Okay lemme make myself clear here, I’m not mad that it’s lost (okay they are but…) I’m just mad about what my dad said.
He asked me to look for the handphone I was like
‘umm it’s been with you all for how long? How am I supposed to know where is it? YOU GUYS lost it!’
‘and why was it with us in the first place?’
‘Cos I sms too much.’
‘and why couldn’t you control yourself? Were you harassing pple?’
‘no! sheesh.’
It’s like wtf they lost it not me. When they confiscated it, it was placed in their trust. Any child’s supposed to trust their parent right? And then they lose it and round onto me and blame ME. What the heck!

We had to do this Napoleon Bonaparte thingy. And we planned to reach Woodlands Library at 10am. Went to Bishan, I think I saw some CHS people for that I need adel’s confirmation.
I never seem to get other schools uniform clear in my head.
‘It’s a sort of brown khaki shorts.’
‘What is?’
‘TCHS shorts larh… can recognise?’
‘What SORT of brown Khaki shorts?’
‘You know…’
‘No I don’t.’
‘Okay never mind I’ll show you a piccy of the shorts on MSN.’
‘Adeline do you know how despo that sounds.’ (Visualisation of shorts emerges. Wants to run away screaming)
‘Tsk… then what? Their whole body? Wait need to see if got any or not…’
-Frantic calculation-
‘Okay got.’
‘Then it’s good news to your juniors.’
‘What?’ ‘Someone new for them to ogle larh.’
‘Tsk!’
‘Well you could like just use Paint and then find the correct colour and just use it larh,…’
‘Oh yah hor... How come I dint think of that…’
So anyway went to Bishan, found ah liew… I think I’m really a sucker for the donations thingy. There was this bunch of whatever JC pple going around asking for donations to SPKC…no sorry SPCA. Yeah. I donated like 2 times to 2 different pple and bought some old lady’s tissues while waiting for ah liew. Then she and her sis and her mom came and we went to woodlands and her aunt and then… WE FOUND OUT THAT THE LIBRARY OPENS AT 12PM!!!!!!!
We had over an hour to waste away then.
We ate brunch.
Then we went back while terry her mum and aunt went some where else. Dunnoe larh… So went in there found 4 fat big books on Napoleon WE LOVE YOU WOODLANDS..!!! Borrowed them all. Wanted to see if got Terry Pratchett or Douglas Adams but ah liew dragged me to popular to buy foolscap paper. So then we went and then went to Ang Mo Kio where everyone was waiting for us.
On the way there, we were ambushed again by what I think/know now as NYJC. This guy he ignored the woman in front of us and slot in nicely in front of us and went ‘please donate’ in that nice tone.
We donated. I have 4-5 stickers of the SPCA sticker in my wallet.
We got there first then saw XL and Vanessa … I love XL ¾ pants!! Hahahhaa. So then we went and sat down waiting for adel. XL said adel got her lost. Well well.
We sat and waited and attempted to read the books. I say attempted. I never said we actually READ them. Wink
Xl then saw adel.
Okay you see we were on the second floor in this tamil sort of section with all the tamil books and memorabilia yeah I know it means dead people stuff… We could see who came up the staircase which was like 315° from the pillar thing that heralded the opening of the tamil section.
Man my description of stuff is BAD!!!
Xl called adel larh to tell her that we were already there then her phone went dead. That was when adel came up. Xl was saying ‘go straight go straight go straight right in front of you..’ when adel did a 180 degree turn and all of us fainted.
Xl gave up and decided to usher adel in herself. So did everyone else.
So we found a place to do our work abeit it was right in front of masses of people and we were in full view of the walking audience outside the library……..
Xl commented that adel and ah liew were like terrorists describing their next plan when ah liew did this particularly violent description of waterloo. Vanessa’s the real terrorist. Adel and she have great plans together……….

So we did work until like… 3 plus. Or you could say we talked a lot and wrote down nothing. We were DISCUSSING. Yeeeesss…. Then we gave ourselves a break cos for some reason of the cosmos all libraries were closing that day at 4pm.
We went around to do some last minute borrowing of books we would want when I suddenly remembered that I wanted Douglas Adams’ restaurant at the end of the universe and AMK library HAD A COPY!!!!
Went to the ADA section in adult fiction.
Found nothing.
DAMN AMK!!!
Then espied a familiar figure sitting down at the same section.
‘Hi Sherilyn.’
‘Oh. Hi.’

She was reading a Piers Anthony book Good author. Cos her school Anderson near AMK libray what… so we ignored her and she us and left the library together at 4pm. Went to KFC. Spent an enriching hour there discussing MORE of Napoleon and Wellington while Sheri borrowed Adel’s ear…thingies one uses to hear the walkman/discman/handphone privately to block us all out.
Adel brought food. Everyone stole some. Including my sister. She just said that she was sitting with us only becos KFC would chase her out if she wasn’t eating.
So then we continued and my sis disappeared mysteriously in the toilet. She had a stomach ache. So we left at 5.30pm after gorging ourselves out a bit more and attempting to identify what sort of mad song the loudspeakers were playing we only identified ONE song. Linkin Park’s Numb. hahahaha
Jie went home the MRT way while we went home the bus way. I dint go with her cos I was going to church for youth service.
Yes the time changed. So we walked to the bus station and we thus separated there. I decided to take the 24 instead of the initial 22. Then behind me came a 25 which they were supposed to take. I thought I saw XL as the bus passed and decided to look out for them. Their bus was turning to the left in a junction while mine went straight. Of course I saw them, all waving… to me I waved back… ALL OF THEM LOOK SO CUUUUUUUUUTTEEEEEEE!!!!!
I really wished I had my camera then. All looked like little kids waving bye-bye… SO SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTT!!!!
HAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAAHAHAH

So went to church. Found Rebecca. She was eating a kit-kat white chocolate bar… mmmmmm
Was her first food of the day. Hahah. Then we talked till 6.30 then went for dinner at 7pm. Ate nasi lemak. Regretted that decision.
Sang a lot during the praising session but uncle James kept blocking me!! Naughty!! I had to sing a lot to overcome the oily voice problem. Had lots of phlegm. Evilness.
The sermon was nice and good.
After that went to Pasar Malam. Successfully drove Rebecca nuts with my British Accent and madness. She doesn’t want to acknowledge the fact that I’m mad. The world does.
WHY DOESN’T SHEEE!!!!
IT RELIEVES HER OF SUCH A BURDEN!!!!

‘You know, its better to travel with me. I’m worse than any robber/burglar that you’ll ever meet!’
‘Oh no.’

and I associate myself with waffles. I like waffles and they sound ‘fluffy’ cos of the ‘f’s like woffles. :D
Raffles doesn’t sound half as nice. It’s probably that rigid R that’s hanging over all the ‘offlesness’

Raffles raffles raffles.
Doesn’t sound half as nice as waffles waffles waffles. Or
Woffles woffles woffles.

Then I went home and watched Summer Scent <-Korean Drama…… well a tiny bit of it and Police Story. Some nice cool Jackie Chan story. YAY! He hit his head on glass in that movie, nearly electrocuted himself and jumped down on to an escalator and had hideous problems with his movie girlfriend Maggie Cheung and etc… hahaha okay gotta go bye bye!! :P
