Where's my umbrella?!

My mom's singing her cantonese song karaoke in the background.

If you have read the previous post, you would have realised i left my umbrella in school. To be specific, i left it in an ulu corner between those lockers in the amphi-theatre. I went to school today wanting to retrieve it. (My memory not bad one can) To my horror, (a bit drama mama) the dirty greyish purple umbrella DISAPPEARED. It's an Esprit umbrella can. I wonder who would actually want to steal my innocent and harmless umbrella who did nothing but stood there quietly for me to retrieve it. I suspect it was the cleaner who took it because some trash by the side were also removed and the whole area looked paticularly clean.
I attempted to find my umbrella again by scrutinizing every cleaner's trolley, you know the one with a yellow dustbin bag and mops/brooms chucked in it. However in midst of those mops and broom sticks, i still din manage to spot my umbrella and this makes me come to another hypothesis: my umbrella is in the lost and found counter. I was too lazy to walk to the other end of the school so i din bother to try the office and it's a bit paiseh also.
Maybe next time when i need the umbrella then i go ask. For the time being, it shall just remain there.

Today's my 2.4km run, something everyone would dread. I dreaded it too but since i did not have a choice, i will just take in a positive stride. It did not really bother me because either way, i still fail my napfa since i only did 1 pullup that day. So i just ran for the sake of getting it over and done with and i'm very happy that i completed it within 12min plus. But you know the worst thing is what, losing count. I always lose count whenever i run around the track cause it appears the same every round and the thing is we are suppose to raise our hand at the 5th round and i was rather unsure. I dont know if i ran 4 or 5 rounds and i had to stop to ask. How loser is that.
Anyway, i figured that swimming does help improve my stamina. I was able to sustain myself throughout the entire run. That's amazing. I think i can represent singapore in SEA games soon.(maybe as reserve)
I was sweating like a peking duck after the run.


Mrs B was sick today. She hasnt recovered from her throat infection. And we had 1.5 hours of free period. Mrs b, get well soon.


Recently i bought one big packet of seaweed because i have this sudden craving for it. I still can remember how last time i used to buy small packets of seaweed at 20 cents each in my primary school. You know my primary school's food is the best. As i grew older, the food in my schools gets worst. Not to mention the current status. Then i still remember in primary school they sell this jelly which you must suck up. They come in shapes of different animals and oh yah,the pencil one! Haha.. I had so much fun in primary school. It's just play and listen to teachers' stories and remember teachers will reward when you collect 5 stars or stickers or smthn. You still remember ornot?!


Oh, i was suppose to say something about seaweed.. see how much i digressed just now.
I realise in per packet of seaweed, instead of the usual 4 pieces, there are only 3 pieces! Cheat monies one can. I wonder why did the manufacturer have to do such things. I dont think he is actually saving money from doing this because by only inserting 3 pieces of seaweed per packet, he would have to waste more money on packaging. He will have to waste money to buy the plastic pocket and waste labour sealing the packets.
Secondly, for us the consumer, will have to waste time opening the the packets to eat the same number of pieces of seaweed as compared to last time. See how wasting is that?!


Yesterday i had a queer dream again. I finished my bio tutorial and fell asleep. Guess what, i dreamt of our late president dr. wee. I dont know why in the weirdest dream i can dream of him. He was talking to me, praising how good my chemistry practical skills are. HAHA. i really dont know why. Then he showed me a video clip of dr. c teaching and said he is a very good teacher. It was an experience of a kind.

You know i am very angry with canal vale secondary school(you know what am i referring to) . They din invite me back for speech day can. I everyday check mail box also dont have tt stupid invitation letter. You know how pathetic that sch is. firstly, they dont let people use air-con in the CONTAINERS. Then secondly, they scrap the book prize (for 7a1s people) because there were too many people and they could not afford to give out too many vouchers. My goodness, they think they very good can. Although i only scored a measly 7a1, it's still a good decent 7a1 ok! How can they like that, i bet next year they have to even invite those with 4a1s for stinging on their resources. Perhaps they should just scrap the whole speech day, they can save a lot i tell u.
