Hello :) and welcome
This blog is for all the "lost souls" (to quote Ji Inn :)) out there. No, it certainly doesn't have any answers(well not by me anyway), just a lot of questions and hopefully discussions. In a nutshell, this blog is for thoughts, ideas and discussions. For those I invited, go to profile and change yours unless you want it to keep it that way :)
I'm searching for something, but I'm not sure what it is ...

happy to be in 409 '09
and to have been in ES
Sorry, that's all about me. That's the point of this blog anyway, so go read it instead :)
Co-authors of this blog:
Jennifer and Jing Yi: my best friends for the past year, 9 months, 10 days and counting :)
Ji Inn: a friend I've grown close to, and talking with whom inspired this blog
Sharon: my new prayer buddy and the resident St. John's corporal-cum-attacker (what did I say about contradictions?)
Maddie and Fei Ya: friends around us who are close enough to turn 2-people conversations into 6-people ones
There are a lot more people I'm close to, but above are the people who make our 7-people (6 of us near the front, plus Jing Yi who sits at the back) conversations what they are.

10 things that make you laugh till you cry
1. when the lack of punctuation messes up a sentence, and the person reading it aloud pauses at the wrong times, ottally changing hte meaning of the sentence.
Like:
See, they encounter thee with their hearts' thanks.Both sides are even: here I'll sit i' the midst:Be large in mirth; anon we'll drink a measureThe table round.There's blood on thy face.Try it! (it actually happened)
2. when Pamela suddenly yells "Shakespeare's buddhist!" (or tells Mr. Tan one of his ears is larger than the other).
3. when something (e.g. Maths or DARK ENERGY) is so complicated & vague that it becomes amusing.
We actually came up with a sentence to remember one of the formulas:
A: remind me not to eat 1/2 gram of that raspberry cake, and to eat 1 gram of the mountain instead.
B: Ok! Tmr!
(original equation anyone?) This is it: Rmr - 1/2 gmrR + (mountain - really, it looked like a mountain peak) gmr = KTmr. (some parts were in subscripts though).
4. when some emcee goes "YOU WANT MOAR? YOU WANT MOAR?" when another is interviewing a teacher.
5. when a friend whines that "Woodlands is fking in the middle of nowhere," and another friend replies, "Really? How indecent of it! it should fk in private!"
6. when Mr. Tan told Pamela to shut up and that he would kick our asses if we write that hardy is boring.
(or when he ends a talk about how Shakespeare is universal with, "Can you please go home and think about it?", Maddie says "No!" and before she can explain that she's answering Ji Inn's question, Mr. Tan replies "Yes you will!" and waves the VCD case to emphasise his point).
7. when, midway through their Macbeth presentation, Regina (as Macbeth) goes "Tell me more . . . wait! 不要走!" and the witches continue walking. (bilingual Macbeth)
8. when a person says this of another: his suaning abilities rival that of a . . . pingpong ball.
9. 不要走！(Jennifer insists it should be repeated for emphasis. We have another alternative: Knowing Jennifer, an element of dramedy).
when Jennifer sings "nobody nobody but YOU! (Fur^2 一直以为是中文歌 . . .) and Mr. K happens to emerge from the computer lab just as she points at him.
10. "i'm coming for you turkey!" - regina
PU-KAW!
When Regina leans towards Jennifer so far that Jennifer is leaning backwards, goes "PU-KAW" in her face, then turns and walks off.
Bonus: When 郑老师wonders who that guy was, and says, "死了！记不得了！". Then just as we've finished laughing about that, she triumphantly says, "是思乐！"
LA Bonus: our class certainly made LA lessons entertaining with our Ideal School presentations. Just to name two:
Bullford: located in one of the world's harshest deserts, preferably a school with a bloody 400-year history, students will be called "bullies". classes include wine-tasting, and if they get drunk at the age of 13, they can just go over to the coffee-tasting class to perk themselves up.
BIRCHNIAEPHENIECONGAIRE (first thing students learn, is how to pronounce this correctly): aims to cultivate wives, serves birch sap as a tonic drink before major examinations. Answers to questions raised during the Q&A session are being cultivated.
