graduation is supposed to be a touching day. a day where we separate from our friends, classmates and teachers. a poignant day. a heart-wrenching day. yet today was surprisingly, the opposite. i was neither touched nor did i feel the least bit..upset... today was not what i expected it to be. it lacked sorely the make-me-sob factor.
first it was android-training. our "beloved" mrs ee, after much screaming, going all red and yellow in the face and vibrating from self-inflicted frustration from trying to get us into our specific seats, she made us practice how to stand and sit. what to do, when to clap, when to laugh. what to say, even what to feel. i couldn't sit on the outside of the row because i crossed my legs when i sat and she commanded me to switch with aisyah. she didnt even let me switch with gennie for fear that, shud the guest stop to talk to any of us, she would shoot her mouth off and spew perfectly true misdeeds of the school. anyway, the funnie thing is, after all tt practicing, she tells us, "remember! clapping must be spontaneous."
The thing abt spontaneity is that...well. it has to be..well. spontaneous! something that the school (read: the principal and those who suck up to her) does not seem to able to grasp or to be able to comprehend. so we did waddeva she wanted accordingly, all the while cursing, cussing and damning her to hell.
So the arrival of the guest of honour is announced. mrs ee den leaves us in the hands of the Hitler-incarnate (read: mrs ong. principal of my school) who then delivers the most hypocritical speech i've ever heard her give so far. she says "the practice we made you go through was not to put on a show for the guest to show how good our school students are. It is to retrain you in your good manners that, as u grow, u seem to forget. we're not training you to be robots or anything. Its just to teach you proper good manners."
-snort- yeah riiight. like whatever man
whatteverrrrr. there was a wave disbelieving snorts and sniffs that rippled thru the mass of students who were sitting in the hall then. No doubt, mrs ong didn't miss it either. she may not be the nicest person on earth, but i have to admit, she's not that thick as we want to believe she is. but i supose she ignored it, since there was no outrageous outburst that outrightly argued against her.
alotta pple got awards. in fact (including repeated names like The One), 159 of them got awards. some of em deserved it some of them don't. in fact. i'm gonna give some awards myself, those that actually mean something to us.
Wackiest Student of the Class of 2004 Award: i have to say its izyanti. Seriously, i have never seen anybody as nutsy kuku as this girl. Anybody who moves the macdonald's statue, skates around toys'r'us on
their skateboard, goes down the classroom block's 3rd lvl corridor in sec3 screaming out the word 'penis', goes running down the corridor with a bra on her head and (on a different occasion) tightens the hood of her sweater till you can only see her eyes like kenny from southpark has to win this. Charmaine, Aini and Nana come as close seconds.
Lamosity Queen/King of the Class of 2004 Award: this throne has been occupied and will continue to be occupied by the one and only: Lim Yeu Ai. she has the lamest jokes...the ones the make us roll our eyes heavenward and praise Him that there's only one of her. Even tho iz came up with the "It's Ho-ver" joke, yeuey has the Skeleton jokes, the blushing tomato joke, the stupid chinese puns, and to top it all of, the silliest grin and laugh to garnish her dish of lamosity. Hail Queen of Lamosity~!
Sexiest Pair of Legs of the Class of 2004 Award: this was a tough choice. Immediately, 3 tough choices popped into my head: jolynn, sherelynn or yuzhen. there was length, complexion, tan and the ultimate size-of-gap-between-the-thighs-when-u-place-your-legs-together test, that i had to comtemplate before i could award a winner. and yuzhen, with her long yummeh legs came out top. All 3 passed the ultimate test with Jolynn has the length, the complexion but it lacked the golden brown tan that, in my opinion, coloured yuzhen's and sherelynn's legs. But sherelynn lost out to yuzhen (that tall bitch!) in length. Hence, the throne goes to yuzhen.
Most Money-minded Student of the Class of 2004 Award: this was no contest. this has to go to Gennie. many of us in the cohort are higly ambitious but not in money. Anyone who wants to make 1million in ten years time with alot of business ideas that pop into her head constantly, who had already considered inheritance and assets in possible male candidates, who founded the "I-Wanna-Be-A-Taitai Club",
has to claim crown to this title. Don't forget me when u get tt million gennie!
Most Freakydeaky Student of the Class of 2004 Award: this plaque is awarded to 2 people. i have to. its a shared number 1 spot between Huiting and Arvind. They're good-looking, get the most astounding grades, top the level and yet...they're not NERDY/GEEKY! we can only scream out FREAKS! when we see these people. but in huiting's case, i cld scream "ICEBERG!". (hehz. pte joke)
Student with the Cutest Ass of Class of 2004 Award: this, as everyone who knows me well should already anticipate, goes to alison of class 402. i personally dunno the fella. but his butt looks mighty fine! Apropriately nicknamed, "The Butt", this pert ass never fails to catch my attention when in sight. Tho i must say that i have seen better butts outside school, this has to be the darnest-most-good-looking butt around the campus so far.
Most Disgusting Student (in Nadalala's Opinion) of Class of 2004 Award: well. those who know me should know who i usually talk abt: The One/Sleeping "beauty" in 06/Booger-is-my-favourite-dish-girl/Lets-go-westmall-and-look-for-Dunearn-boys-girls/etc.etc.
okok. i think i shud stop here. hahaha. becuz if i give out anymore awards, i mite start getting dungbombs in my mail.
Anyway, after the awards presentation, we have this slide presentation where we were shown pictures of us thruout the 4 years tt we've spent in the school. i cld kill izyanti for sending in the sec1 newspaper collection photos of us. -rollseyes- and it ended with a very nice black and white picture of suxian and jolynn, which yours truly took. hehz. the effect of the photo looks so good. -arrogantsmirk- and it had our voodoo doll and rmun photos! yay!
so after tt we went to the reception at the canteen which wasn't so bad. den we took quite a number of photos and that concluded the school day.
