The one about the German Tutor.

Okaye, so i had my first lesson with Ulrike(pronounced, Oool-ree-kay) last friday. She arrived at my doorstep, and the first thing she did was ramble about her medicinal stockings and such. Not yet used to her strong German accent, i just smiled and nodded, pretending i understood. Suddenly, she whipped out a pair of bright purple stockings from her bag, and wore them over her stockings, all the while announcing that the stockings were expensive. The lesson was alright, fun(Spaß!) in fact. We had a little exercise at the end of the lesson and since I'm taking conversational german, we practised errr..conversing.
Had another lesson today, and I finally found out what a schnitzel really was. We had another mock conversation, but it really consisted of her speaking really quickly in German, and me(mostly) trying to recall the phrases which were actually learnt by heart, and replying(not so quickly). I had trouble with a particular word 'Worum', where she kept emphsising i had to pronounce the 'r'(and went RRRRR). Problem was, i didn't hear an 'r' when she pronounced and i was basically copying her, so she was only satisfied when i added an exaggerated RRRRR. Other than that, she says i have good pronunciation. Whoo. Btw joyce, you are supposed to be a Verkauferin.
Wonder if she'll teach me german expletives, she used 'shit' in front of me. Heh.

Grade7.

That''s the grade of the current j2 erhu players in ACCO, and I'm trying to appeal in. When i don't even have a grade. Whoopee whee. No wonder whatever they played was pitch-perfect. Methinks their band of 8players are louder than SCCO's 20+strong strings section. Oh dear. Nowhowamisupposedtogetin.
Crashed AC on friday, the food at AC is so much better. PJ's canteen food is inedible. I've been reduced to dining at the cafe everday or not eating at all. No wonder i seem to be running low on allowance earlier than usual. Walking to school everyday doesn't help since my transport fees aren't incorporated into my allowance. Oh i loathe the tutorial system. It's senseless to sit around and waste periods, then have to stay back later than other students just because of the subject combination i chose. Minus the horrible food and lack of interesting cca's, i really do prefer PJ to AC. A lot. AC seems rather pretentious to me. Of course, i'd rather head to poly and do something interesting, but i 'm facing opposition from my parents. Gah.
And mean jasmine, don't poke fun at my junior! *bashes your head in.

It's the time to DISCO.

I can't believe I'm saying this, BUT. I love the dance learnt today, because it's disco. And i love 70's disco. WHOO. Saturday Night Fever! *cue in finger pointing and hip gyrating. Sexaye. The best part is, there isn't any contact required between partners, therefore, no groin smacking. You damn sicko's, so excited over my little booboo. I so do not enjoy smacking other people's bits okay. Ya'll are just jealous.(:
Well anw my new dream: taking business in poly. Problem is, my dad is so against it cos he was from poly and says people will look down upon me if i take it and all. Darn. I so do not wanna go JC and study science there.
On a totally different note, the pj orientation shirt is so stylish.

People have two left feet.

I have three.
Well ok the movements are pretty okay, but i'm terribly butter-brained. Spent my time at the Mass Dance half a beat behind others, squeaking 'Oh!', because i forgot the next move. It's funny how the initial akwardness of holding the hand of an opposite sex (a stranger no less) is forgotten once complicated dance moves involving twisting and twirling of both parties are forcedd upon us. Halway through one of the said complicated twirls, i accidentally whacked my partner. At the groin. I don't know who felt more violated and embarrassed, him or me. Probably me, because he didn't seem to realise it, so i feigned ignorance. I didn't know his name throughout the dance. It was only till the end of the day, i thought his name was Alvin. I was so proud of myself for remembering something.
The next day, i found out it was Eugene.
My partner's quite good-looking though. Kinda resembles that guy called nic from MiLuBing. Kinda. Any takers? *smiles sweetly at Jasmine.

The first day at a new school,

And i'm reminded of the fact that i'm socially-inept, from the fact that i spent the whole day at PJ, and didn't make a single new friend, choosing instead to hang about with Swiss people. So while the other people were (forced t because they had no schoolmates there) making friends, i stood at one side and stuck with Caroline. Oh dear. It's not my fault i find it hard initiate a conversation. I just can't stand small talk. I did try on one occasion, but it failed miserably.
Me (to girl in same group): Hi, which room are you going to?
Girl: Oh, MP4
Me (trying desperately to think of something to say which wouldn't make me seem spastic): Oh, ok great, what school are you from?
This lasted for a few seconds, till i felt that whatever that came out of my mouth was truly and utterly ridiculous so i decided to shut up and go find a familiar face instead.

JC life is boring. With the exception of the lit lecture i sat for, i zoned through the lectures. I got a whole chunk of combinations (a lot mroe than others anyway) but couldn't take half of them because they had chem (i feel disgusted just saying thinking of the word). I need an option with H2 math, phy, econs and H1 lit to appear thankyouverymuch, because the only combination resembing that right now is H2 lit and H1 econs, and history seems ridiculously hard. Oh i am highly annoyed by the fact that lit is restricted to people with A2 and higher in english or C5 and higher in pure lit, because now i can't coercecajole anyone i know into taking lit. Gah. This is infuriating. It's really time for me to consider going poly and that oh-so interesting course called Experience Design at Singapore Poly. I might be able to design toys if i take that course. I think. Nevertheless, it seems so cool.
