An Abundance Of Katherines is cool. Books with extremely smart people as protagonists (like in The Curious Incident Of The Dog In Night Time) are generally cool. Okay I take that back. Bindy Mackenzie was the first fictional character I wanted to murder. Haha ironic right, then in the end it turns out someone was plotting her murder all along and at that point she's become less annoying and you think "ohhh noooo run Bindy run!".
Anyways, An Abundance Of Katherines is cool. It's such a quotable book. John Green is brilliant. And Colin is brilliant. Anyone who draws graphs to predict relationships is brilliant right?
"Monotony doesn't make for painlessness. In the first century CE Roman authorities punished St. Apollonia by crushing her teeth one by one with pliers. Colin often thought about this in relationship to the monotony of dumping: we have thirty-two teeth. After a while, having each tooth individually destroyed probably gets repetitive, even dull. But it never stops hurting"
It seems cheem but it's actually very easy to read. It makes math fun. There, I said it. The maths part you can pretty much skip lah if you don't care to know the Theorem but I read it all and if you can't understand math theorems like me there's an appendix at the back.

IT'S over!!!
I feel sooooo relieved okay now finally I can get some sleep and clear my inbox of the hundreds of messages. Yeah I'm super OCD about my inbox it was the first thing that came to my mind.
SARAH SMRITHI WEITING YAY THANK YOU FOR BEING SOOO HARDWORKING AND SORRY I NEVER SEND IN DOCUMENTS ON TIME. ANYWAYS WE DID WELL DIDN'T WE?
Anyways, the deployeeeees (haha) were the awesomest people ever okay.
Hear that?
Yeappp RGS girls are seriously so helpful I don't know what I could've done without them man. And it was like we were SEARCHING for problems sometimes, but everyone was too free (because of Nanyang OH?). Oh but sometimes people just SWARMED in and everything/one went kinda nuts. (Like after Nanyang OH ended.)
Yeah and the number one questions parents ask:
Are the classrooms air conditioned?
RARRR. Whatever happened to eco-friendliness? Hahahaha. Yeah but sure, nobody can resist air con right.
Heehee and I mistook this girl's bro as her DAD. SO EMBARRASSING. But they thought it was quite funny and they were nice people so thank goodness. Oh and their older sis was Hadley captain 1996 how cool is that eh? They wanted to end the tour at the notice board so they could find her name.
Having PSB/PB juniors is awesomeee. Now I know why Violet liked talking to us smaller people haha! After everything was over and we were slacking in the Dry Lab Wanyi and Louisa tried to guess my CCA. Goodness gracious they don't know my CCA and I've known theirs since? Well they got gym right because they said I LOOKED like a gym person. But they kept guessing squash probably because the poster spams by squash penetrated their subconsciousness or something like that lah.
And the PITs are such funny people! I hope I didn't scare them too much because I'm not always this drunk!!! I think OH drove me a bit weird and alcohol fermentation occured resulting in the sugar in my blood turning into alcohol or something which resulted in me screaming RARRR at people randomly and singing Anything You Can Do which is a very very catchy song by the way.

(Starts screaming like the bimbo I am not)STEPH SIOW! CHENG LYNN! DO YOU HEAR ME? YOU GUYS BETTER NOT PANGSEH/PON OKAY? (Just kidding, I know you all won't!) HAHA. WE CAN DANCE WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER AGAIN IF YOU WANT.
But this year we're gonna be up against all those pro sec fours tooo! Maybe we'll just cheer to death and hope everything turns out alright? Wheee yay this is gonna be fun :) Just like in sec one and two!
And and the date's real appropriate too (hint hint).
On a different note, I'd like to declare that my hot and cool friend Germaine Teo is the bravest little girl everrr. Because she tries her best. And because she'd rather eat ice cream like Ms Choo said than commit suicide. (Right?)
(Cheesiness ahead) You go girl! <3

Happy birthday uncle chin chow! You're a good host and so is your mom.
Vera's right. We've sorta split into RGS sec 3, RGS sec 4, and RI sec 3. But it's okay, everyone's still weird as ever!
Yay I really missed our gatherings and stuff. It's nice to have a bunch of people who don't fit into any social category (like CCA, clas etc.) but are still good friends. And I've realised that some people are so SLOW at getting jokes. I tried using the classic Joey Tam one:
Me: (slaps Rachel's shoulder) don't you hate it when you pee on your hand?
Rachel: Huh...
Me: (slaps Lin's shoulder) don't you hate it when you pee on your hand?
Lin Wen: Yeah...
Me: (slaps Ryan's shoulder) don't you hate it when you pee on your hand?
Ryan: (blank face)
At this point, Jordan and Marcus start laughing like hyenas (in a guy sort of way) so they obviously got it.
Me: Let me show you the APPROAPRIATE reaction.
(attempts to slap Jordan's shoulder) Hey don't you-
Jordan: (ducks prompty)
Like I said, SLOWWW
Yeah then a bunch of us stayed back to watch the Machinist, which is truly a psycho film for psycho people. We looked away at the -ahem- inapproapriate bits, of course. Well, most of us. Heehee and Marcus thought the Ivan guy was hotter than Brad Pitt. (Who isn't really hot anyways.) And Ben says Megan Fox is actually a guy.
NO SHE IS NOT. YOU'RE JUST JEALOUS hahaha!
Okay we'll end with a
Thank you Vera's dad for sending me and Terry to Bishan :D
