It's been a while...

This week's been gone in quite simply, a flash.  Yes, SPM is still on.  It still isn't fun, no.  But there were some "interesting" events.

Tuesday
One being the night before my first paper, BM.  I woke up an hour early due to a freaky dream.  I was dreaming of a white Glen Johnson, complete with glasses and dressed like some corporate worker.  

Seriously, can you picture him being white??

Wednesday
I drew some inspiration from watching Watchmen last Sunday for my English paper.  I have to say, the "comic book adaptation that is too complex to be made into a movie" wasn't as bad as doubters thought of it.  Although set in an alternate timeline, the movie was smart albeit dark and wee bit violent.  And I just love the characters of Roscharch and Ozymandiaz (forgot how it's spelt) and how complex they are.

Thursday
And my ordeal of visiting the toilet during the exams.  You see, the rules state that when a student wants to "go for the pitstop", he/she must be accompanied by an invigilator.  So since I had some time to kill in my Sejarah exam, I got curious.  When being escorted, I was thinking: Hmm... So how can I cheat??  No, I didn't cheat, what for?  Besides, I was just brainstorming.

Three ways, in fact.  Though I rather not state them as a safety precaution to future participants.  So I was thinking, would he be standing beside me in the cubicle when I "release some tension"?  Nah, he just stood outside.

Later that day, me and my mom went to celebrate the end of my Sejarah paper with Carl's Jr., which was fantastic.  Since my dad was in Penang, my brother in camp and my sister at the kampung with my grandma, this was the best time.  But my mom already had her lunch so I was eating for one.  So I ordered the biggest burger I could see to fully enjoy this moment.  Then my eyes saw the Chili Cheese Fries and I gave in to temptation.  So, at the end of the day I was struggling to chow down half of the Chili Cheese Fries and the normal fries left by my mom.  It was bittersweet, as I was still half full at dinnertime.

Fast forward to Saturday
The Form 5s decided to pay a visit to the Usaha Camp participants.  I had fun owning the others in Monopoly Deal while waiting for the main event to commence, since they were all new to the game.  We had lots of fun during their Malam Kebudayaan (Culture Night) and our sketch was unanimously the best performance we seniors have pulled off since... EVER.  Then we celebrated Miss Melody's birthday, who is
21, I mean 18. I mean 15.  Yeah... Fifteen.

Then on the way back, Zee's car broke down cos the brake fluid was leaking.  So the initial rendezvous point, SMKDU was scrapped,

Well, that was kinda the entire week as I can recall it.  Gotta blog on a lot of other stuff after SPM...  Oh well, got a date- I mean,
study group soon.  Till then
