Chinese.

i think i deserve the Nobel Peace Prize for my good act today.

today was the official start of the Olvl written papers, and i couldnt have begun it better.

today, approximately 15 minutes before the exam, i scooted up to calss to get my dictionary. horrors of horrors, it was locked.

i decided to gallantly follow the example of dwayne and walk in independant from the thick compilation of chinese words.

that turned out to be a mistake.

i couldnt understand a single word in paper 1, i mistook hotel for coffee shop and even with that interpretation, couldnt find any way to smoke around such a stupade topic. (yes, stupade, no typo.) or at least, not in chinese.

i looked at my confirmation slip and realised that the next paper was at 2.

hell no, i was not about to waste my afternoon in school.

i made my descision there and then.

i regurgitated all my content knowledge of venice, merger, NI and the swiss on the small uestion paper provided.

i grew tired of that and decided to let my soul rest on the snooze-designed table in the hall. i must have shocked Mrs Chung. i woke up thinking of how low the table was and day-dreams drifted to the policy on palliative care.

i realised i was getting a stare by most invidulators around my area and decided to make my hand look busy. i experimented drawing an equalateral triangle in a square. the requirements was for the triagle to touch the sides of the square. yeah, stupid, i know. btw, i figured the easiest way to do sa was to make one side of the triangle parrallel to one side of the square such it is 2-root 3 units apart. the opposite point will be midpoint of the opposite side, the angle formed there will be 3pie rad.

i went home after that, never to re-appear for the paper 2.

so, why do i deserve the prize?

1. i didnt bother major's peaceful slumber to get my dictionary.
2. i didnt start flipping my table after realizing i couldnt even understand the question like most lunatics would. instead, i kept my composure and put my time to good use. imagine the chaos i should have caused. i, contrary to normal human reactions, prevented that.
3. i slept. that's peaceful enough.
4. i re-assured Mrs Chung that i was ok with failing this paper because my grade in JC was valid.
5. i skipped paper 2 as a pre-emptive action to safegaurd the possibility of the flipping tables effect.

ha, so there's the 5 reasons to why i deserve the Nobel Peace Prize. (i think i spelt it wrongly, but, ah, if you want to be nominated, keep the peace and keep all hush about it.)

i seriously dont know why his name is used in that prize.

he invented the dynamite. for goodness sake, shouldnt the one who invented the silencer have been used.

i've obviously gone a little mad.

1. Massive Retaliation.
2. Flexible Response.
3. MAD! Muatully Assured Destruction.

ah. i shall go pray.

after yesterday's sermon and feeling evidentaly convicted about it, as posted yesterday, prayer's bound to be better. so says yesterday's 'meet-up'.

so break me.
