hand gestures...

well... i find hand gestures very fascinating. because its universal, and EVERYONE in the whole knows what you're referring to, regardless of the languages. like thumbs up. and well, everyone knows the middle finger. hahahaha..

my post today is to vent off a frustration i "suffered" sometime ago. i was so totally pissed, i was black faced to that person the rest of the day, i wondered if he knew. anyway, i was in gentings (i think) with ruyin. is actually my guy friend asked me, so i jio-ed ruyin along. i really can't remember what the incident was, but i tink we were posing for the camera or something, and i thought the "V" sign was too boring (as in the index and middle finger V shaped, like a "2"? haha) so i posed with the "i love you" sign, like a thumb, index and small finger, you know, very rocker, haha.

after the picture was taken, my guy friend went, "that's a sign for the Devil... you know, as in satan?"

you know how defensive i can be. so i went, "no?! that's a i-love-you sign, very common"

friend continued, almost like looking down on me tone, "HA! you NUS university student you also don't know that's a devil sign?"

at this point, smoke already coming out of my head, i mean, he wasn't even rite abt the handsign, i was so angered that i nearly exploded. but his friends were around, i didnt want him to look stupid, so i didnt argue with him. why bother debating with this ignorant moron? i thought. so i just kept quiet. damn, i should have just retorted back, "excuse me, i'm sorry, i'm supposed to know EVERYTHING because i'm a university student, so you diploma cert guy is much smarter. btw, devil's horns is THIS (signs) " aiyah! why did i keep quiet and not say anything? not even to prove my point? wasted.

for your information, guy friend, the picture on the left, with ONLY the index and little finger up, can be a representation of the devil satan, because of its horns look.

the sign i made, is WITH A THUMB out. this sign's original idea was made using a combination of the letters 'I', 'L', and 'Y' from american sign language, and it consists of extension of the thumb, index finger, and little finger.

yah, its stupid that my mood was ruined because of a hand gesture. its retarded. LOL. but i was really angry at that point. because IF he had talked nicely and politely, or even asking me "eh? i thought that was the devil sign... blah blah" i would have replied and corrected him very nicely too. DID HE HAVE TO BRING IN THE FACT THAT I'M A UNI STUDENT? i mean, i'm sorry i got the brains and luck to study for a degree in NUS, while you're only an IT diploma holder. MY FAULT IS IT??? if he was right, i have nothing to say, have to be humble. but he got his facts WRONG! duh.

moral of the story:

"Get your facts right before you go sarcastic on ppl, dude."

真是没事找事讲，吃饱空闲硬要得罪人.. *shakes head*

JACK 'n JILL...

i'm obsessed with buying the jack n jill's potato chips recently... on normal occasions, i'd eat it in appropriate amt.. like 1 pack every 2 weeks or sth, its my favourite brand actually, LOVE the salsa flavour. but because now got Euro Cup promotions, got free soccer jersey metal handphone chain thing!!!! *screams* so i bot 3 packets in 2 days. hahahhaa.. so far, i've collected Czech, Italy, and SPAIN!!! yay!!! so happy they're the teams i quite like, especially Spain! when i saw its Spain in the 3rd packet i bought, i was like YES!!! and punching in the air. hahahhaa..
.
since england is not gonna be in the Euro 2008 (lousy man!!), the team i'll support is Spain! they have so much talent in the squad, i think they're the most under-performed in international matches. got Fernando Torres, David Villa, Joaquin, Xabi Alonso, Cesc Fabregas, Puyol, is Raul still in international football? and their keeper is Iker Casillas!!! omg! fantastics players, how can they not win? haha.
.
and of course the Netherlands!!! also got very good players, but not strong as a team. most of the time its the selfish wingers lah, especially that Robben fellow, every time chiong inside the box on his own, instead of passing to stikers who are unmarked, and den lose the ball, damn frustrated. sigh.
.
so now i'm determined to get the Holland handphone chain. if only i have x ray eyes; hahahahah!!!

secondary school days...

were fun. and easy. haha. suddenly realised that eh, i wasn't afraid of studying, and i wasnt a hard working student in particular, studyings were always last minute. wow, how did i managed to get thru O and A levels? i also amazed myself. haha.

my class was A class, sec 3A and sec 4A, one of the triple sciences classes, and we had many prefects! i tink we have 15. and class size was 41. LOL. bcos in Cedar, prefect councillors were chosen in lower secondary. so all the good students were grouped together after streaming.. in the end, my class got 15 prefects. i tink my life as a student wasn't stressed because of tests and chemistry experiments. but very stressful because we cannot eat in class without the 15 prefects knowing. haha!!

i was clearing my drawer when i came across my diary, written while i was sec 3 and 4. not exactly diary, just wrote down funny incidents that happened. and i tink i was more active and hyper in sec 3 and 4. i dont remember much abt sec 1 and 2. probably bcos i was so low profile until i bore myself! LOL. sec 3 was fun. the teachers loved us, because we have the best students, the happening prefects, we joke with teachers and also got good results. our class not nerdy k, haha, we can play like mad!

why am i posting abt stuff that happened 10 years ago. OMG 10 freaking years! has it been that long??? sheesh!!! anyway, reading thru my writings, i recall some incidents, but when i read some entries, i was like "got meh? this thing happened meh? how come i dont remember?" haha.. yah, its good thing that i wrote something then, cos now when i read, its quite funny, and i go "oh, so this happened" sth like that. re-living the good memories.

last time Cedar used to be so on abt track and field. we RULED the track and field world, winning all the trophies. we would have the entire sch down at the national stadium to cheer our track team. and we always come in 1st place. be it 100m, hurdles, relays or long distance, long jumps etc... or 2nd place, when we have 2 participants in the same race. we would have well organised cheers, complete with actions! LOL. so happening back then. and its amazing to see a sea of blue (our uniforms blue lah) cheering together. one day i must go Anfield, to experience You'll Never Walk Alone, wah, see on tv also feel so touching! even Fernando Torres said he was touched by the Liverpool fans. haha.

anyway, this incident, or rather, this conversation happened while on our way to the national stadium. not the finals, but the heats. as in still qualifying stage. last time we can only wear white shoes ala bata brand. later, principal said we can wear white based running shoes if we have PE lessons. so that day we were all wearing normal white school shoes. and it was raining!! our shoes were wet lah, we were like, die! tmr no PE, cannot wear sports shoes. wet shoes tmr cannot wear!! our conversation was somewhat as follows:

Ann: never mind, just wear nike sports shoes tmr, there's nothing to be afraid of.
Jasmine: no choice lor, cant expect us to continue wearing wet shoes rite?
Wanrou: yah!
Yueting: luckily we have Eileen with us, so when we say our shoes were wet, the teachers will believe us. (as in, i was a guai, good, obedient student, never get into trouble with teachers before one. LOL)
Wanrou: but if the teachers spot and catch only Eileen, she won't have anybody to back her up, the teachers won't believe our words one.
Me: don't worry, my words are strong and reliable enough, i don't need backing.

HAHA, and the 4 of them roared with laughters, wondering how come i so BHB and so confident i wont be doubted by the teachers. hahahaha!!
